Chapter 134 Gwen's Black and White (Two in One)
"I mean, it's incredible!"
Gwen looked at the coffee in her hand and said to Peter, "I think the existence of magic is incredible. If magic really exists, then magicians should at least have a doctorate degree."
"PhD?"
"Chanting, throwing lightning, moving objects with the mind, energy transmission, telepathy, etc., just like systematic subjects, isn't it extremely difficult to master these? At least you have to be extremely smart."
Gwen seemed to say something that made a lot of sense.
"Maybe."
Peter put down his coffee cup and said to Gwen, "It's not difficult. It's really hard to create magic out of thin air, but if you use a different method and steal energy from a god or demon, magic will be born out of thin air."
Peter thought of the Ancient Mage, which is also the magical energy that Strange will master in the future.
Since Ancient One did not find a suitable successor, in order to protect the Earth from being occupied by other magical dimensions, Ancient One has been absorbing energy through the dark dimension.
I wonder if there is still Ancient One in this universe?
If so, is the other person a man or a woman?
Peter looked up and said to Gwen, "But this may cost a lot. There is an equivalent formula for everything."
Gwen thought for a moment, "Just like humans used the fire that Prometheus stole, but they will be punished in the end, right? Because the moment humans used fire, original sin was born, but there are still many people willing to take the risk to use fire."
Peter was slightly stunned when he heard what Gwen said.
Did Gwen overhear what she said to Helen?
After thinking for a while, he looked up at Gwen and said, "Yes, this is the price."
"That teacher Helen is a little pitiful."
Gwen didn't know Teacher Helen's background and thought she was just a traditional magician.
In the past, witches would be burned to death.
Although magic is powerful, it is accompanied by an inescapable tragic fate.
After all, if what Peter said was true, they stole energy from outer space and were guilty of original sin from the very beginning.
After she thought about it for a while, she asked Peter, "Did she really agree to the settlement? Also, is the black creature that killed the werewolf in the live broadcast her pet?"
"As for the reconciliation issue, we only signed a temporary ceasefire agreement. Although she knows our identities, we are not her greatest enemy. As for that creature, you will see it again in the future."
Peter said ambiguously to Gwen.
"Well, I don't want to see that horrible creature."
Gwen muttered quietly.
But then she remembered something and asked Peter, "Why was she so hostile to you at the beginning?"
"Maybe she was at a disadvantage when we were fighting, so she was very angry."
Peter went on to explain to her, “Some women have such big hearts.”
Gwen nodded. Although she felt that this statement was a little wrong, she could not find any reason to refute it for the time being.
She suddenly thought of a woman - Black Cat!
This woman who usually pretends to be a rock star is the kind of woman with a weird mind!
"Kacha!"
As soon as Gwen opened the door, she heard snoring louder than her jazz drums coming from the room.
She looked towards the sofa and found that it was her father lying on it and resting.
George Stacy, resting his head on one arm, fell asleep on the sofa, perhaps because he was too tired.
Gwen didn't wake her father, she exhaled and sat in the chair next to her.
It's already seven o'clock in the evening.
After leaving the airport, she and Peter parted at the cafe and went straight home.
I took out my cell phone and found that all the hot news were about the terrorist attack at Kennedy Airport.
If Peter had not subdued the terrorists in time, more innocent passengers would have been harmed.
Gwen had just put her phone down when she saw her father getting up from the couch.
"Gwen?"
George was stunned when he saw his daughter in the room and looked at the clock hanging on the wall.
"I slept for two hours?"
Gwen said to her father: "Maybe you are too tired, Dad, you need to rest."
"There have been a lot of things happening recently, and the police station is short-staffed, so everyone is in the same situation as me."
George said as he walked over to the coffee machine.
"Today there was also a terrorist attack at JFK airport. It's been a turbulent time."
As he spoke, he made himself a cup of hot coffee and added milk from the refrigerator.
Gwen looked at the milk coffee her father had made and felt a little guilty.
Because George told her since she was a child that drinking coffee would affect her development, the breakfast he prepared for her every time was steak with a large glass of milk.
Although she would rather have a delicious wheat cake for breakfast.
Of course, it would be nice to have a glass of root soda.
Thinking about my date with Peter in a cafe and how I drank a lot of coffee.
If my father knew about this, he would definitely convince me to drink less coffee.
"Dad, you still work for the Special Crimes Unit?"
Gwen asked her father.
"Yes."
"Have you changed your mind about Spider-Man? I mean, he saved a lot of people today. Maybe he's just a good guy who's eager to help people."
Gwen wants to change her father's opinion of Spider-Man.
George put down his milky coffee and said to Gwen, "It doesn't matter, Gwen. Even if I think he's a good man, it won't change anything."
"why?"
"Because the world is neither black nor white, but gray in between. Everyone looks at things from different angles and standpoints, so the conclusions they draw are also different."
Gwen said depressedly, "This is different from what you taught me before, Dad. I remember asking you why you protected this city. You said no one forced you to do it because you were willing. At that time, I thought the word 'willing' was really cool. It was both humble and brave."
"But the justice you insist on, Dad, is beginning to slide towards the middle ground."
George was stunned when he heard Gwen say this.
After a while, he slowly put down the mug in his hand.
Am I really sliding towards compromise and going with the flow? !
He thought of the threatening phone call he received in the office during the day.
Because he had previously sent Matt Murdock, the number one villain under Kingpin, to prison and began investigating Kingpin's crimes, he suffered hostility from Kingpin's forces.
It was Kim Byung's forces who called and threatened him today.
When the other party threatened his daughter, he did hesitate for a moment.
Seeing the disappointment on Gwen's face, George walked over and touched his daughter's hair and said, "No, I will always insist on my own justice, Gwen, in my own way."
at the same time.
Fisk Building.
A grand dinner was being held in the banquet hall.
All the people who attended the dinner were New York celebrities and dignitaries.
The Kingpin that George thought of, Wilson Fisk, was accepting compliments from the mayor.
"It is because of your generosity and fundraising that the Brooklyn Bridge was able to be repaired and recover after the terrorist attacks."
The gray-haired but energetic mayor raised a goblet and said to the tall and strong Kingpin, who had to look up to speak, "Only when this city needs help the most can we know who is the most reliable friend of this city."
"And I know now, Mr. Fisk, that you are New York's true friend."
Fisk had a humble smile on his face when he was complimented by the mayor.
He smiled bitterly, clinked his wine glass with the mayor's goblet, and said, "Please forgive me."
Reporters attending the dinner nearby noticed the conversation between the mayor and Kim Byung and gathered around.
The flash lights kept making "click" sounds.
Although many reporters here know that the smiling fat man in front of them is not a good person.
Drug trafficking, theft, murder
It seems that behind every illegal case in Midtown, there is the presence of Fisk Group.
But the irony is that he turned himself into a good person with just one banknote.
Even though they thought so in their hearts, none of the reporters present were stupid enough to say it out loud.
Everyone was frantically pressing the shutter button to record the intimate conversation between the mayor and Kim Byung.
"Mr. Fisk, are you aware of the terrorist attack at Kennedy Airport today?"
"I heard that the president of Stark Group was almost kidnapped. What do you think?"
"Spider-Man appears at the scene. Do you think he is a hero? There are recent rumors that the police are preparing to put him on a wanted list. Do you think this is correct?"
The reporters asked Jin Bing questions all at once.
Being surrounded by reporters for interviews, Jin Bing was very unhappy, but he did not lose his temper.
The bodyguard who was not far away from him immediately came up and separated the reporters.
Despite this little incident, the dinner ended smoothly.
After all the guests left, Jin Bing returned to his office alone.
His office is on the 34th floor of the Fisk Building.
The office is luxuriously and magnificently decorated.
It looked more like a holiday house than a commercial office. Sitting in the manager's chair, the kind smile on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by a face full of clouds.
Although he was wearing a white suit and was fat, he did not look kind at all at this moment.
"what happened?"
He said to his men, "Ask Spider Silk. I provided them with weapons. What kind of big move are they planning?"
Jin Bing already knew the identities of those who attacked the airport.
After all, these people have a close connection with him.
The organization is called "Spider Silk" and is a mysterious organization that mainly engages in illegal smuggling and human organ trading.
They may also be engaged in illegal human experiments.
Although he didn't know the real boss of this organization, he worked closely with him.
After all, the other party can always provide some seemingly incredible drugs.
Such as drugs that turn ordinary people into super soldiers, and technology that regenerates severed limbs.
These are all very useful to him.
That's why he agreed to provide weapons to these guys.
I didn't expect the other party to attack a celebrity like Tony Stark at the airport.
This playboy is definitely not the jerk he appears to be.
If he finds me here.
Thinking of this, he began to feel restless.
After his men dialed the number of Spider Silk's top management, Jin Bing took the phone and prepared to talk to the other party.
"I'm Fisk, you guys are reaching too far!"
Jin Bing came up and warned the other party without any politeness.
"This is not part of our collaborative project, Mr. Fisk."
Unexpectedly, a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Jin Bing asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"
The guy he had been in contact with before was a man.
Is there a change of people in the "Spider Silk" organization?
"You can call me Silk, but it doesn't matter. It's just a code name. Mr. Fisk, our cooperation has always been pleasant, so I hope it will be the same next time."
Kingpin frowned and said, "But you don't follow the rules."
"Rules are made by everyone together, aren't they?"
A woman's voice came from the microphone, "For example, we can still help you with the next action."
Jin Bing asked the other party cautiously: "Help me with what?"
"We know that you have always wanted to kill Officer George Stacy. After all, he has been causing trouble for you. I heard that you are looking for a killer. Don't you want to kill Officer George?"
Of course Jin Bing would not admit it.
Although he was very shocked that the other party knew what he was planning recently.
After hanging up the phone, the expression on his face kept changing.
It seems that the mystery of this "Spider Silk" organization exceeded his expectations.
At this moment, he felt that agreeing to cooperate with "Spider Silk" might not be a good thing for him.
the other side.
After Cindy Moon finished her phone call with Jin Bing, she fell into deep thought.
She herself is the leader behind "Spider Silk".
What I just said was just a warning to Jin Bing.
In fact, she has no interest in killing Gwen's father.
But she wanted to see how Gwen would fight Kingpin.
She knew how difficult this guy was.
This guy is the biggest gangster boss in New York and even in the entire United States. He has a meticulous mind, extraordinary wisdom, and more than 90% of his body is muscle.
Moreover, the opponent has incredible strength and can break through a wall with his bare hands. He is also a world-class fighting master.
Jin Bing's father was originally a small gang leader, who was killed in a gang fight.
From then on, Jin Bing had a deeper understanding of the social law of the jungle, and he began to have the ambition to establish his own "gangster empire".
Driven by this goal, Wilson joined the New York gang, committed all kinds of atrocities including burning, killing, looting and finally ascended to the throne of the leader of the New York gang.
However, this did not satisfy him. This nearly crazy guy used his inherent evil mind to massacre other gangs in an attempt to control all the gangs.
And while he was trying to build up his gang power, he did not stop training.
He would practice sparring with a group of martial arts masters from all over the world every day, each time against ten at a time. However, each training session would never last more than 20 seconds, and his opponents would either be killed or injured.
According to him, his huge size is not due to obesity, but is all muscle.
There are so many things about this man that are beyond ordinary people. He is extremely evil and cunning, and his power is so strong that it is beyond imagination.
He also colluded with many senior government officials and made many politicians act as his protectors.
If Gwen faced such an opponent, it would probably not be so easy for her to win.
She raised her head and looked out into the dark night.
But if that man is involved, it's hard to say.
Parker's house.
That man, Peter Parker, is being criticized by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May.
"Coffee, dear?"
Uncle Ben came over with coffee.
Aunt May said nearby: "I can't stand it."
"What can't you stand? My coffee?"
Uncle Ben thought he was talking about himself, coughed and put the coffee on the table, "Believe me, honey, I know it tastes terrible, but I've been used to this taste for 42 years, maybe after tasting it for a long time, I'll find it tastes good."
"If the shoreline is dry, I'll make you some with my secret recipe."
Uncle Ben was interrupted by Aunt May before he could finish his words.
"Ben, we were discussing something about Peter."
Aunt May glared at Uncle Ben in dissatisfaction. "Peter didn't come home last night, and he came back very late this time. What should I do if he develops bad habits like a bad boy?"
Peter, sitting on the sofa, accepted Aunt May's criticism without refutation.
If she were in an ordinary high school, there would be nothing wrong with Aunt Mei thinking this way.
After all, her starting point was to care about her nephew's growth.
Uncle Ben glanced at Peter, thought for a moment, and put down the coffee in his hand.
"I know why."
Uncle Ben suddenly said to the two of them.
Peter looked up at Uncle Ben in surprise.
Uncle Ben knows the reason?!
Aunt May was also stunned, "What?"
"I mean I know why, and the reason is that Peter is in love."
Uncle Ben smiled at Peter and said to Aunt May, "It's normal for young men to chase after what they like and become obsessed with it."
Aunt Mei thought about it and felt that there was some truth in it.
She asked her husband, "Are you sure?"
"Of course, Peter told me that he fell in love with a girl's freedom, his unconventionality, and his fantasy."
Uncle Ben said something that left Peter speechless.
Did you say this yourself?
Is it really okay for Uncle Ben to make up such love words for himself?
"You mean Peter often comes home late because he's in love with Gwen?"
Aunt May was obviously led astray and began to take an interest in Peter's love life.
"It's Gwynnie's fault."
Uncle Ben said after an unnatural cough.
When Peter heard the name, he fell silent.
He thought Uncle Ben was talking directly about Spider-Woman!
After all, the person described doesn't look like Gwen, but more like Spider-Woman.
Do you like Gwen's freedom and unconventionality?
Did he fall in love with the fantasy of Gwen?
How did Uncle Ben know that?!
"I told you Peter, there are things you can't do and you can't spend the night outside, even though I support you and Gwennie."
Aunt May stopped asking questions after she knew Peter was on a date.
After all, she still liked Gwen very much.
But she still hoped that Peter could show some restraint.
"of course."
Peter promised Aunt May.
After he went upstairs, he suddenly received a call from Helen on his cell phone.
"Peter, I found out!"
"What was found?"
