Chapter 68: A Little Quarrel

Two days later, inside a secret base on the Hudson River. Lin Rui was sitting peacefully on his sofa, and as for Matt, he was frowning at Spider-Man Peter who was bouncing around in the base.

"Wow! You can find such a hidden, safe and spacious secret base!" According to the address and phone number left by Lin Rui two days ago, Peter came here after being reserved at home for two days, and was excitedly visiting the base at this time.

"Is this a public place? There are even big-screen TVs and game consoles?!This refrigerator and weapons depot are also nice, although I don't need those guns and bombs!" Peter's words didn't stop for a moment.

Call!

"Well, cucumber-flavored potato chips are a match of a good friend of mine!" Peter continued his thoughts, flipping through the fridge full of food.

However, after he picked up the packet of cucumber-flavored potato chips and mentioned his good friend, Lin Rui, who was sitting on the sofa peacefully, still had a heartbeat. Peter then threw the packet back in, and he was relieved that it seemed that a packet of chips could not connect him to Peter's good friend Jackson.

Call!

After finally visiting the secret base, Peter sat down on a chair in the common area, the same chair that Jack had moved over the previous two days.

"That ......" Seeing Peter sitting in Jack's place, Lin Rui originally planned to remind him, but in the end he didn't say it.

"So, this is our secret base. And you, Daredevil, are my other teammates?" asked as Peter looked at Matt as he twisted his ass in Jack's chair.

There was no response from the "......".

Daredevil really didn't bother to bother with this guy who was obviously a little kid, and his eyes silently turned to Lin Rui. Although there is a mask in the way, Lin Rui can also feel the meaning of Matt's expression, that is: Where did you find this strange thing?!

Although Matt knew that Lin Rui was also a junior high school student, his actions and personality were relatively calm, and Matt never regarded him as a child. But Peter is different, he looks like a naïve and talkative secondary 2 teenager.

"That, Spider-Man. Now that you're here today, you're sure to join our team. So, in order to better cooperate in future tasks, we need to know what abilities you have, why don't you introduce them to us?" Receiving Matt's silent message, Lin Rui took Peter's words and quickly changed the topic.

Among Marvel's superheroes, Spider-Man should be the one with the most fans, and Lin Rui also knows Spider-Man's abilities very well. But after all, this is reality and not a movie, so Lin Rui is also worried that there will be deviations. Moreover, several versions of the movie have been filmed, how does Lin Rui know which Marvel world he is wearing.

"Yes, of course. However, you have to introduce yourself later, but I'm curious about your abilities. Hearing Lin Rui's words, Peter agreed, but also put forward his own requirements.

"Absolutely, that's what team-mates are all about. Of course Lin Rui wouldn't care about telling Peter about his strength, anyway, they would all know in the future.

"Well, my main abilities are strength, agility, and observation. Also, I made a special device myself, a dispenser that can shoot powerful spider silk that can be synthesized. As you probably know, I can use this device to move quickly around the building. After a brief introduction to his abilities, of course, Peter still hid the origin of his abilities and the spider sense that he still hasn't fully figured out.

"Speaking of which, I'm curious about what you did that day. Phantom Knight, do you really know how to fly?" After introducing his abilities, Peter looked at Lin Rui on the opposite side and asked curiously.

Although Peter's body has mutated and he has great strength and body coordination, he still can't fly directly from one building to another without relying on any tools like Lin Rui.

"Haha, that's just a special use of my abilities. Of course I can't fly, although I wish I could. Smiling, Lin Rui explained simply.

"Then what abilities do you have? Are you a mutant?" Hearing Lin Rui's explanation, Peter first thought of the most common group with special abilities in the world.

"No, I'm not a mutant. Suffice it to say, my strength is slowly built up through a method of self-training, unlike those who are born with strength. Smiling, Lin Rui denied Peter's speculation, and at the same time explained the origin of his ability. Of course, he didn't explain the exercises he cultivated, which ordinary people couldn't understand.

"Oh! I knew you wouldn't be one of those mutants!" Peter was a little excited when he heard Lin Rui's explanation.

For historical reasons, the image of mutants in the hearts of ordinary Americans is not very good. Although there are moderate mutants like the X-Men led by Professor Charles, there are also the Brotherhood led by Magneto Eric and various underground evil forces hidden in the shadows to study mutant genes. And the U.S. government's attitude towards mutants has not been good, and ordinary mutants are not very popular in life. Therefore, most mutants nowadays will still hide their mutant abilities and hide among most ordinary people.

"Well, what's the matter, you don't like mutants?" Hearing Peter's words, Lin Rui seemed to feel a slight estrangement from mutants from his tone.

This is not a good phenomenon, not to mention that Lin Rui will meet a lot of decent mutants in the future, let's just say that now, there is a mutant in his team, and that is Jack (Jack is a third-level mutant with muscle-strengthening ability. )。 If Peter was too obvious, he feared that Peter and Jack would not get along. Although the mutants' forces are very differentiated, and they are independent and even enemies. However, when it comes to their identity as mutants, they are all unanimous to the outside world.

"No, it's just that some mutants always feel that they are at the front end of human evolution, and I don't like them very much. Apparently, Peter was also influenced by organizations like Magneto that wanted mutants to rise to lead humanity.

For Peter, mutants are just a product of human history, with few peculiarities. This world is too mysterious, and it's not just mutants who have special powers. Just like Peter himself, he has so much power from a spider's bite, and it's constantly increasing and controllable, much better than those uncontrollable variants.

"Hmph?!Are you guys who think you represent all of humanity any better? Although I don't quite agree with some of the views of the Mutant Brotherhood, I have to say that mutants are indeed an evolution compared to ordinary people. Just as Peter was expressing his opinion on mutants, a voice suddenly came from behind him, and it was two statements from the position of mutants.

Call!

"Well, who are you?" Peter turned his head and saw a tall mixed-race handsome guy in casual clothes walking in. Of course, Peter's tone was not very good when he asked what he had just said.

"Hey!Phantom Knight!, you just let this kid sit in my chair, I thought it was private territory?!" Ignoring Peter's words, Jack walked straight up to Lin Rui and asked, obviously he was very upset with Peter.

"That ......" Originally, Lin Rui just wanted Peter to suffer a small loss and restrain his words, but now the development of things seems to be a little unexpected.

"Hey, who do you call boy?!" Before Lin Rui could speak, Peter had already jumped up from his chair and questioned Jack loudly.

"Who else is here but you to be the word?" Jack replied unflinchingly in the face of Peter's questioning.

"You arrogant fellow!" How could Peter, who was young and vigorous and had only recently acquired superpowers, stand such a response from Jack, and as soon as he raised his hand, he had already fired spider silk at him.

Shout!

The slender and sturdy spider silk squirted out from Peter's wrist in an instant, shooting directly at Jack not far away, and Peter wanted to seal this guy's mouth with a cobweb!

However, Jack is no ordinary person, and when Peter raised his hand, he was already moving. So, when the silk shot over, a short knife had already slashed at it.

Whew!

With a soft sound, the spider silk that Peter shot was already glued to Jack's short knife. Although his goal was not achieved, Peter did not intend to end it like this, and his right hand connected to the spider silk instantly exerted force, trying to hand over Jack's short knife. However, how could Jack let him get his wish, and the hand holding the short knife continued to exert force.

Buzz~

And just like that, a verbal altercation turned into a contest of power. The silk that connected Peter and Jack quickly stretched between the two of them, and trembled slightly. Peter, whose body has been mutated, has long been unable to measure the strength of ordinary people at this time, and as for Jack, his mutant ability and the half-hanging technique he has cultivated also make him not weaker than Spider-Man at this time in terms of strength. That's why the two of them are stuck there.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Lin Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, seeing Matt watching the play on the side, Lin Rui had no choice but to stand up.

Brush!

Call!

In an instant, he drew his sword and swung it forward, and a dazzling fiery red sword light flashed in this secret base.

Jump!

With a crisp sound, Peter's spider silk split in half from the middle under Lin Rui's knife light. The two who had been facing each other also took a step back slightly because the opponent's strength disappeared in an instant, but the atmosphere between them did not ease because of Lin Rui's move.

"Hey, you two, I didn't call you here to get you to fight each other! Jack, I'm sorry, Spider-Man just took your seat and I didn't remind him. As for Spider-Man, your attitude towards mutants also needs to be corrected, and no discrimination is allowed here!" Stopping between the two, Lin Rui said loudly. He didn't want to create a gap between the team members he had managed to pull over for such a trivial matter, and there should still be rules.

"Hmph, I'll give you face, Phantom Knight!" Hearing Lin Rui's apology, Jack's attitude softened. He glanced at Peter before slowly lowering his knife and then stepping over to his chair and sitting down.

"Spider-Man, what about you?" Jack calmed down, and Lin Rui turned to Peter's side.

"Got it, I'll take notice. Knowing that what he had just said would be a little unpleasant for mutants, Peter chose to show weakness.

"Well, that's OK! Everyone is a partner in the same team, what can be solved by not fighting?"

"Alright, now that everyone is here, let's discuss this action. ”
