Chapter 323 Peter vs. Shadow Agent
"You were a teacher for a while, right?"

Peter asked Mary on the way back.

"A teacher in a girls' school, a profession that allows a girl to have a sense of existence by making her life choices."

Mary said to him, "Peter, have you ever had a teacher like that? One who inspired you to learn more and become a better person?"

Peter was silent for a moment and then said, "I have probably never met a teacher who stood by the table and read poetry to me seriously."

"No one has ever taken a bullet for me, or given me roses, or tried to teach me some other truth, I mean as a teacher."

Peter said, tapping his fingers.

He thought of some other bad memories of teachers.

Mary looked at Peter, held his hand and said, "Well, Peter, it looks like you're not going to be very happy in your future school life. I had a teacher, an English teacher, who taught me about Poe, Plath and Dickinson."

"And Keats, and Dunne, and Yeats, and all those writers of love."

After a pause she continued:

"I hope I'm the kind of teacher that girls will remember. Maybe that's why I try to be a teacher. I want to leave something behind."

The two walked to a cafe while talking.

Mary invited Peter inside for a fruit drink.

In her words, it was an unforgettable meeting between her and her future child.

The waiter came over, and Mary ordered a tropical drink for herself and a fruit drink for Peter, telling the waiter to add a little cranberry juice in it (to solve Peter's bitter melon face problem, Mary joked that Peter's face looked like a bitter melon.)
"These girls need help, some of them are just a little bit lost in the fog, and others are in deep darkness."

She paused and continued:

"Girls who have been abused by their parents, who have been molested, who are substance abusers, who are bipolar, who are self-harming, who have been abandoned by their families or the world in many ways."

"Having abandoned them to the wolves and lions of the plains and jungles, they need our help, and since we are the only ones who offer them help without asking for anything in return, that means I have a lot to do."

Peter listened quietly. It was the first time for him to learn so much about this nominal mother.

The image of the mother in the previous videotape gradually became more substantial.

The waitress appeared while the two were talking.

She handed Mary the cranberry vodka.

Then, in front of Mary, a glass of what looked like fish tank cleaner was placed, adorned with an orange slice and a cherry, and not one, but two small paper umbrellas.

This drink was so unique that Peter couldn't help but take a second look at it.

"I have to tell you," Mary continued, "the school doesn't feel like a school anymore because of all the harmful stuff. It feels like a school for rich girls, some frivolous and arrogant girls, like a bunch of troubled girls fighting each other with their teeth and teeth, and their parents have given everything they have to make sure their children have a place."

"These girls have become bad boys in this big school with its Greek columns, heraldic crests and ivy creepers."

"That's the thing, Peter. We don't just want to give these girls a minimum standard of living. We want to give them the whole package. A complete passport to real life."

Mary sipped her drink from her tiny red straw.

Her eyelids fluttered with pleasure. "Mmm, mmm! Mmm, it tastes delicious, Peter, do you want to taste some?"

Before Peter could say anything, Mary forced the straw into his mouth.

Peter sipped the drink gently, it tasted light and refreshing.

His heart was becoming calmer and calmer, and now he was even enjoying this feeling a little.

Mary looked at Peter happily and said, "Because of some absurd and nonsense things, some parents do pay a lot of money for their children. Girls from rich families can also be confused and uneasy. Sometimes, rich girls will have the worst situation, anorexia, OxyContin and other diseases."

“Shopping addiction.”

She quickly added another, “Some girls enjoy this behavior, but it is also a very severe disease, and she doesn’t know how to control herself.”

“It’s not my strong suit.”

Peter interjected.

Mary didn't expect Peter to make a sarcastic remark, so she smiled and moved closer to him.

"What we do, all of this is to help these poor girls, not just get through, not just survive, but excel, so, I think it's very meaningful, Peter."

She held Peter's hand and said, "I may not be with you in the future, but I think this spirit will always be with you."

"Peter!"

When Peter returned home with Mary, Gwen immediately approached him and said, "Did you watch the news?"

"No, what happened?"

"It looks like there was a gunfight on the street, right over on the waterfront street."

Gwen said as she asked Wanda to turn on the TV.

The TV immediately showed Dr. Pym and his daughter fighting with unknown people on the street.

"This is.?"

From the flashing images, Peter quickly recognized the guy driving the car as Dr. Pym.

And it’s Dr. Pym from his own time and space.

Because Dr. Pym in this time and space is definitely not that old.

"This is Dr. Pym, right?"

Gwen asked, somewhat uncertainly.

"should be."

Peter frowned slightly as he looked at the other woman wearing a uniform somewhat similar to his own.

"But why is Dr. Pym here?"

Gwen felt that her brain was not enough, "Could it be that the Doctor has also come to this era?"

Peter nodded and said, "It's not impossible. Don't forget that Dr. Pym built the quantum channel and summoned the Eye Demon from another world."

When he said this, he glanced at Wanda who was feeling guilty beside him.

"I don't think anyone can achieve Wanda's level of science except Tony Stark, Reed, and this doctor."

"So what do we do now? Go help them?"

Gwen asked Peter after a moment's hesitation.

When she is unsure of the other party's intentions, Gwen always wants to seek Peter's advice.

"Although I want to be a bystander now, it's related to our problem now, so I have no choice but to go."

Peter said to Gwen with a sigh.

He didn't expect that when he returned to this era, he would encounter quite a few things.

On the other side, Hope was struggling against the "Shadow", but she didn't expect that the opponent was more difficult than she expected.

The opponent uses the shadow as a defensive shield and can also hide his own figure in the shadow. This method of attack is basically like cheating.

"Damn it, if I have my uniform on."

Hope couldn't help but complain.

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden "whoosh" sound in the air.

The next second, Peter, covered in a black exoskeleton, appeared in front of her. At the same time, the black shadow released by the mutant carried a strong energy and quickly attacked his location.

Peter was a little surprised when faced with the "shadow" attack.

In later lives, he once absorbed a mutant named "Shadow", and the two had similar abilities.

Facing the opponent's attack, he stretched out his hand.

The swirling shadow that tore through the air hit his hand and exploded in his hand in an instant.

"boom!"

The thick black shadow hit Peter's hand with a deafening sound, but it did not make him retreat a single step.

The action of holding the "Shadow" in his hand and annihilating it directly shocked Hope and the "Shadow" present.

Hope didn't expect that the extremely powerful attack could be easily crushed by him.

What is this ghost?

When did Spider-Man become so powerful?
As someone living in New York, she naturally knew the name of Spider-Man.

I didn't take the other party too seriously at first, but now it seems that the other party's strength is not simple.

However, the atmosphere before seems a little different from now.

The attacking mutants were even more surprised.

The attacks he released were not only energy attacks, but also powerful forces that were far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Faced with Peter, who seemed to be of considerable power, "Shadow" immediately prepared for the next attack.

Moving to a safe position, the mutant's shadow cast a strange arc and hit Peter who was closest to him.

"boom!"

The shock wave generated by the small explosion knocked Peter back a step.

The "shadow" quickly changed its form in the air, and the dim black magical energy gathered around him again.

He waved his hands forward, and a black shadow energy came towards Peter along the ground.

It was like a black fire dragon, attacking at a rapid speed along the ground.

Hope, who was also the target of the attack, didn't care about Peter and immediately flew into the air as fast as she could. She got the stun gun from Pym ready and with a "bang", she shot a bullet at the opponent.

The bullet was easily dodged by the opponent, but the black magic energy under his feet moved towards him, rushing out from the ground like a long snake and rushing straight towards him.

What the opponent casually launched was a shadow energy attack that looked very powerful.

Carrying a fierce breath of destruction, it rolled towards her
Accelerating again, Hope flew towards the opponent at a faster speed.

Use the grappling hook to hook a traffic sign next to you and pull it towards you in the air to resist the impact of the shadow.

"call!"

Carrying a thunderous momentum, the shadow energy rushed towards Peter and the others.

"boom!"

Shadow hit Hope's arm, knocking him towards Peter.

The moment the two crossed paths, Hope endured the pain and prepared to continue attacking the "Shadow".

She was ready to use herself as a tool for the "bee sting".

The "bee sting" mixed with poison can not only cause physical damage to the target, but also cause nerve damage to the target.

Although her arm was a little painful, she was only slightly injured because she had deliberately used the strongest part of the suit to withstand the attack.

As she moved forward, she glanced in Peter's direction.

Peter, who was the main target of Shadow's attack, was hit much harder than her.

With a loud bang, Hope looked worriedly in the direction of Peter.

To Hope's surprise, Peter, who was in the explosion, disappeared!
Shocked, Hope immediately stopped what he was doing.

How could someone be missing?

Even if you have special abilities, it is impossible to disappear in an explosion.

The next second, in Hope's shocked and unbelievable eyes, Peter's shadow slowly rose from behind the mutant.

Peter, who absorbed another "shadow", also has the ability to control shadows.

However, his ability is to hide his body in the shadow. Although this ability is not as strong as the "shadow" mutant in front of him, it is very useful in concealment.

Under Hope's astonished gaze, Peter's body condensed from shadow into a solid entity and he slowly raised his right hand.

"Oh!"

His hand turned into a knife and fiercely struck the opponent.

Although the mutant used "shadow" to block behind himself at the last moment, he was still blasted out.

After being hit by Peter's insidious attack, the shadow lingering outside the mutant's body suddenly dissipated.

The whole person became listless.

The dark eyes seemed to have lost focus, and the weak body staggered backwards.

He looked at Peter in shock and disbelief. He would never believe that the other party had his ability.

"who are you?"

As soon as he asked this question, Peter pointed forward and countless black snake-like tentacles instantly wrapped around him.

On the other side, Wanda and Gwen were also fighting with the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Gwen shoots out spider silk and defeats one guy, but several more rush up.

"No way?!"

She held her waist and felt that these guys were really difficult to deal with.

Wanda's battle with a mutant is in full swing.

It seems that the two people are of equal level.

One of them used magic as if it was free, and kept bombarding from a distance; the other one had strength and toughness far beyond that of ordinary humans, and every time he punched, he could easily smash the ground and walls.

The ground was shaking continuously due to the beating of the two men. It was estimated that in a while, the buildings near the park would be collapsed by them!
But soon Wanda knocked the other person to the ground.

Dust flew up!
Before she could press on with her victory, more agents surrounded her.

Just as Wanda was about to exert her full strength, a cloak flew over from behind with a "whoosh".

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The cloak launched a rapid attack, knocking down all the agents.

Wanda glanced at Peter and quickly trotted towards where Peter was.

"Dr. Pym."

After Peter had dealt with all the enemies, he slowly took off his mask and said to the stunned Doctor, "Long time no see."
