Chapter 1404: The Old Days Return (3)
Finding Kim and taking a stronghold in Hell's Kitchen is as easy for Riley as eating and drinking, after all, for a long time, the emperor of this criminal empire was Spider-Man's main enemy, or at least the main enemy of Spider-Man in Riley's memory.
Riley recalls what Kim did in the magical central universe he traveled to later? Oh, he seems to have made some kind of immortality factor industry to promote in the universe, Riley remembers that he had seen this guy in the Holy of Holies of Holies at a glance, still strong and burly, fierce and vicious, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
Spider-Man is all too familiar with this expression, and it often appears after Kim has made some unknown gray deal with a gangster boss in a certain city, except that in that universe it may be replaced by a big deal with an interstellar civilization or a space pirate.
Riley still remembers his instinctive muscle tension reaction when he met Kim in the Holy of Holies of Holy, and this reaction lasted until Kim smiled and wanted to hire him as a salesman for the multiverse, when Riley ran fast, Spider-Man had never wanted to see Kim so much in his life, wasn't one Nick enough?
Seeing Kim Ji again, Riley felt a kind of sadness, because this man who was once extremely strong, and almost had the strongest muscle strength in this world without special powers, had now become a fat, ugly, and bloated monster.
He was still wearing a suit, with a golden appearance, but with pointed ears and long fangs, a tumor hanging from his waist, tentacles sticking out from his back, and his perfect body, where every muscle had been tempered countless times, was completely destroyed by these foreign decorations.
Standing in the halls of the King's Palace, Riley was amazed at the leap of his mind, but the truth is that Spider-Man used to think that King's overly strong body made him a difficult opponent, but now it seems that when the beauty of the human body is destroyed by these trivial monster elements, it is still regrettable enough.
Standing in the hall, Kim and roared, Jessica flew to his side to avoid looking at him as much as possible, and reminded loudly, "Be careful, he's lost his mind!" β
Xu Shangqi stood in the center of the hall, holding one hand in front of him, quickly pinching the magic technique, the essence in his eyes swirling, and the breeze under his feet.
"Hexagram!"
As one complex text pattern after another lights up from the feet, the Bagua diagram gradually takes shape, the text rotates faster and faster, and the light becomes brighter and brighter.
Riley understood what Xu Shangqi was doing, so he gestured to Jessica.
Jessica swooped down, the shotgun slamming into Kim's waist, but the bullet didn't penetrate the tentacle at all, and Riley shouted, "Use your fist!" β
After saying that, he stuck a piece of spider silk to the railing of the patio on the second floor, swung over with a "whoosh", and kicked Jin He on the shoulder, Jin He let out a roar of rage, and threw a punch backward at a very fast speed, but was shocked by Jessica's shot in the side of his foot, and failed to catch Spider-Man.
After Spider-Man landed, he stuck to the pillar of the hall, spiraled up like a real spider, jumped to the railing on the second floor with his legs, turned around and jumped lightly, like a fallen leaf, and jumped onto the chandelier at the top.
Jessica's afterglow caught a glimpse of his movements and guessed his purpose, so she flew around Kim and flew at high speed to attract his attention, but did not let him hit herself, and the shotgun fired from time to time, although it could not deal substantial damage, but the kinetic energy of the bullet could affect the balance of the target.
Jin He's strong and powerful legs bent slightly, and he jumped up, trying to grab Jessica who was exposed in the air, but a sneer appeared on Jessica's face under his black hair.
She spun around, her black hair shining like butterfly wings, and in a fluid aerial maneuver dodged the kill, then staggered towards the center of the hall like a panicked moth.
Kim didn't miss such a good opportunity to attack, he bent his tentacles on the ground, quickly jumping between the pillars of the hall, chasing the nimble figure, not noticing that the chandelier above his head was already swinging.
"Bang! Whew"
The chandelier slammed down along with Spider-Man, and Kim let out a scream and fell to the ground, but he wasn't hit hard, just stunned for a moment by the impact, but it was enough.
"Hugh, Injury, Life, Du, Jing, Death, Shock, Open, Eight Doors, Lock!"
The bright Bagua diagram fell heavily from top to bottom, and several chains firmly bound the huge body in the clear echo.
Xu Shangqi wrapped his hands in front of his chest slightly, and then his palms were facing down, his fingertips were facing each other, and the air flow and hair fell together.
"Cool, buddy!" Riley sprang over and shouted.
Jessica also fell to the ground, looking at the silver magic chain with some curiosity, at least in her opinion, this should be a kind of magic, she looked at Xu Shangqi who came over, shook her head lightly and said, "You look quite strong, I thought you weren't the one from the mage." β
"It wasn't before, and I'm working in that direction." Xu Shangqi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, it's actually because I'm not very good at fighting, I don't know any fighting skills, what's the use of being strong?" β
Speaking of this, all three of them looked at Jin Ji's body, Riley pursed his lips, frowned, and said, "Don't you think he's a little weak?" β
"Is this still weak?" Jessica raised her voice and said, "Didn't you see that I shot him in the body without even a spark?" He's ridiculously strong! β
"I mean, he's getting a little stupid." Riley didn't seem to know how to express it, he walked around Kim and said, "Kim used to be very cunning, he wouldn't face me face-to-face, but would first find a large group of killers to drain my strength, and then set a bunch of traps in his bedroom or office to exhaust me. β
"In the end, I found an open field that was completely beneficial to him and didn't have any fulcrum to draw on, and forced me to fight him head-on, although I have a lot of strength, but I am lightweight, and I am not in the same weight class as him, and it is easy to be thrown out."
Riley babbled about his defeat in the face of Kim, he said: "He's not a bullseye minion, he's powerful and cunning, I suspect I haven't even dealt with his real body, those are just stand-ins, but now this ......"
Xu Shangqi also frowned, he stretched out a finger and analyzed rationally: "If, as Jessica said, all the superheroes in this world are infected by a crazy virus, then maybe what they have gained is not strengthening, but actually weakening." β
"This crazy virus has made them more aggressive, with tentacle fangs and a mind full of crazy ideas that will destroy the world, but it also means that they may have lost their most important advantage as human beings, which is intelligence, or calm self-sufficiency, which is important."
Jessica frowned, as if he didn't understand a little, he shook his head and said, "I only know that if it was the original Jin Ji, he would definitely die if he was shot like I did before, and his waist would be blown into pieces, but now he can't do it at all, isn't this considered strengthening?" β
"It's okay, the former Kim won't give you a chance to hit him at all." Riley has a full say: "If the gun could solve the problem, Kim wouldn't have survived that long, there were too many people who wanted to kill him." β
"The most important thing is to have a sense of judgment about one's own situation, and the ability to think of a strategy after making a judgment and execute it in a stable manner." Riley mimicked Matt's tone and repeated the content of his lecture.
"Humans have five fingers, and they can make tools and set traps without making fists, and humans have mouths, so they don't insult each other, they can also be used to interfere, persuade and even communicate, but monsters seem to have completely forgotten about these, and they have exchanged these most important things for some less important defenses, and they have lost a lot."
Jessica seemed to understand a little, she nodded, and then looked at Riley who said this with a slightly surprised gaze, Riley shrugged his shoulders and said, "Don't look at me, this is an elder who said it." β
"Who? Your father? β
"No, Daredevil Matt, I don't know if he's famous in your world, but he can be considered our mutual father, although I prefer to think of him as a mother."
"Daredevil." Jessica raised her voice, of course she had heard the name, after all, she had lived in Hell's Kitchen for a while, and if she remembered correctly, Purple Man seemed to have been taught a lesson by this guy.
Jessica was about to say something when a dark shadow appeared outside the gate of the palace of Jin He, and the three of them turned their heads in unison to see a tall figure in a leotard, which Riley was very familiar with.
"Matt!" Riley exclaimed.
But his spider sense rang out, so much so that instead of stepping forward, he took two steps back, and after seeing the specific image of the comer, his anger rushed to Riley's heart.
Matt, the Daredevil, also had long fangs, a series of tentacles sticking out of his chin, and the skin on his neck was full of pus and tumors, and his skin was collapsing.
"Riley, Riley, calm down!" Xu Shangqi hurriedly grabbed Riley, and when he saw Riley's clenched fist, he had to hurriedly stretch out his other hand and pinch a clear heart trick and slapped Riley's back.
Riley shook his head vigorously, took a deep breath, his arm was still shaking, he gritted his teeth and said, "How dare they ......"
"Be careful!" Jessica exclaimed.
Matt, who rushed in at great speed, was entangled with Riley again, and Xu Shangqi, who had no experience in hand-to-hand combat, had to temporarily avoid the edge and stand on the periphery of the battlefield to provide assistance with magic tricks.
And looking down the distant skyline into New York, another battle is raging on Manhattan's commercial street, with Quill and Rocket Raccoon facing back-to-back battles with several monsters.
Quill has a shotgun in his hand, and the Rocket Raccoon has a hand cannon, Quill first smashed the head of a zombie with tentacles with a shot, and then used the barrel of the gun to knock down a centipede-like bug that was approaching the Rocket Raccoon, the Rocket Raccoon Hand Cannon was recharged, and with a "whoosh", a rocket exploded, and the monster was shocked.
"Wait! What is that? β
Quill stared behind the smoke from the explosion, where a tall, muscular figure stepped out, holding a Star-Spangled Banner shield in his handβprobably the only superhero Quill recognized.
He was a household name in the days before Quill left Earth, but Quill pronounced his name in a serious, deep tone: "...... Captain America! β
"How dare they!"
With a "bang", the tea on the table was knocked over, and Stark in front of the meditation window could no longer maintain a deep posture, he stared at the words on the notebook with angry eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "They transformed Captain America into a monster!" How dare they! β
Strange sat on the couch with one leg on the other, still maintaining decency, and even a bit of high-minded banter and mockery.
But when one page of the notebook was turned over, and some other dense words were understood by his brain, he couldn't sit still.
"This monster Captain America was actually teased by the owner of the notebook?! It was a burning truck??? β
Strange's tone was even more high-pitched, almost swearing.
"He gave up his human appearance, human intelligence, and even human dignity in exchange for such a little ability?!"
"Damn idiot!"
