Chapter 539 Artificial Superhero
"I don't think it's as simple as being impatient."
Ignoring the Avengers who were trying to resolve the embarrassment around her, Natasha's eyes always stayed on Jack Simon, trying to find some flaws in the other person's body, but it was obviously in vain.
Natasha has always been wary of Jack Simon's purpose of approaching the Avengers.
This is not only because of the reminder from [Uncle Long], but also because of Natasha's instinct as a former super agent.
I feel that Jack Simon’s purpose is not pure.
"If I remember correctly, the 'Chaos Insurgency' has successfully contained [Holy Lord], and Mr. Jack Simon seems to have no reason to continue to stay in Avengers Tower, unless it is for some other purpose."
"It would break my heart to hear you say that, Natasha."
Faced with Natasha's sudden change in questioning techniques and her aggressive questioning, Jack Simon clutched his chest and made a sad expression.
"Anyway, I also fought side by side with the Avengers in the previous battle against [Holy Lord]."
"I thought that after that experience, my relationship with the Avengers would at least become friends."
Although Jack Simon said sad words, the expression on his face did not look sad at all.
"Mr. Jack Simon, the Avengers are naturally very grateful for your help in Canada." Unswayed by Jack Simon's words, Natasha still calmly stared at the blond man holding a cigarette in front of her: "However, what I care more about is Mr. Jack Simon and the organization behind you, the Chaos Insurgency."
From Tony's mouth, Natasha learned about Jack Simon's attempt to invite [Holy Lord] to join the 'Chaos Insurgents'.
And it was precisely because of this information that Natasha's inner vigilance against the 'Chaos Insurgency' increased several levels.
After all, it is not difficult to see from Tony's description that the behavior of the 'Chaos Insurgents' is obviously different from the existence of ordinary organizations. It has a strong purpose and even a sense of unscrupulous means.
This kind of behavior reminded Natasha of one of the Avengers' opponents - Hydra.
Of course, this is all just Natasha's conjecture. Currently, most of the Avengers' intelligence on the 'Chaos Insurgency' comes from the descriptions of Jack Simon and [Uncle Long].
The former is himself a member of the 'Chaos Insurgency', while the latter is a member of the SCP Foundation, an organization that encountered the 'Chaos Insurgency'.
No matter which one, because of the position, it is impossible to give an objective answer.
"The purpose of the 'Chaos Insurgency' is simple."
Facing the 'Chaos Insurgency' mentioned by Natasha, the smile on Jack Simon's face gradually faded. He lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette, and said slowly in the smoke: "I think the Avengers should also watch it." Come out, the 'Chaos Insurgency' is different from the SCP Foundation's group of guys who claim to be saviors and try to contain people under circumstances unknown to the outside world. The 'Chaos Insurgency' attitude towards containment is not exclusive. Cooperation, in fact, we believe that as long as the containment can be completed, any external force, even the power of other contained objects, does not matter."
"The career of the SCP Foundation has taught us that contained objects cannot be completely destroyed. Even if we successfully contain anomalies, one day we will inevitably lose control. As for the existence of contained objects, the 'Chaos Insurgency' also believes that it is not the responsibility of the SCP Foundation. As they say, it is a threat to mankind. On the contrary, it is the hope of mankind and an opportunity for human evolution."
"An opportunity for evolution?"
Hearing Jack Simon's words, Natasha suddenly understood why [Uncle Long] described the 'Chaos Insurgency' as a dangerous existence.
"Don't be nervous, Natasha."
The subtle changes on Natasha's face naturally did not escape Jack Simon's eyes.
Even though this super agent has concealed his expression extremely well, the legend level on the system data panel will not be fake.
He grinned and looked at the super agent in front of him with a smile: "In fact, the goal of the 'Chaos Insurgency' just determines that we will not act like the SCP Foundation."
"Working together, the 'Chaos Insurgency' hopes to use the power of the Avengers to fight the anomaly."
"Cooperate?"
After hearing the purpose stated from Jack Simon's mouth, Natasha's eyes couldn't help but flicker.
Looking at the smiling blond man in her eyes, for some reason, Natasha always felt that the purpose of the other party or the 'Chaos Insurgency' was not just cooperation.
…
"Hey Ned, I'm here!"
In New York, outside the window of a high-rise building, Peter hung outside the window, knocked on the glass, and shouted to his friends in the room.
"Great, you're finally here, Peter."
Seeing the little spider appearing outside the window, Ned, who had been worried in the house, quickly opened the window and let in the little spider outside.
"What happened, Ned."
After getting through the narrow window and entering his friend's room, the little spider took off the mask on his head to reveal his green face. Looking at his nervous friend in front of him, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"For you to call me in such a hurry all of a sudden, you should know that I am very busy at this time."
As a good citizen of New York City, Spider-Man is the busiest time every night, busy patrolling the city to fight against criminals and maintain peace.
"Of course I know."
Faced with Peter's doubts, little fat Reed nodded immediately.
Under the gaze of the little spider, he first glanced at his room, closed the curtains of the room and locked the lock of the room. Then he stepped in front of Peter and looked at himself as a super The hero's friend said hesitantly: "Peter, I seem to be in big trouble?"
"Big trouble, isn't it Charles who bullied you again?"
The first thing Peter thought of when he heard Ned's words was school.
Although, now he has the identity of Spider-Man.
But at school, Peter and Ned were not very gregarious beings.
Especially before becoming Spider-Man, the skinny Peter and the overly plump Ned had always been the targets of bullying and pranks by the group of bad boys in school.
"It's worse than this."
Shaking his head, Ned seemed to understand that it was difficult to explain the situation he encountered with simple words. He stretched out his palm and picked up a baseball bat directly from the bed, and pointed it at Peter without hesitation under his gaze. He hit his head with it.
"don't want!"
Seeing Ned mutilating himself without saying a word, the little spider couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, and at the same time subconsciously stretched out his hand to stop him.
With superhuman reflexes, Peter caught Ned's arm before he hit his head with the baseball bat in Ned's hand.
However, the next second, the huge power coming from Ned's hand was obviously beyond the little spider's imagination.
Under the pull of this force, the arm Peter grabbed only paused for a moment before swinging the baseball bat again and hitting Ned's chubby little head hard.
Click——
Accompanied by the crisp sound of a wooden stick breaking, the baseball bat in Ned's hand broke.
But there wasn't the slightest scratch on his head.
"What exactly is this?"
Looking at the unharmed Ned in front of him, Peter's expression was obviously dull.
Immediately afterwards, he rushed to Ned as if he had just woken up from a dream, looked at the baseball bat broken into two pieces in his hand, then looked at Ned's head, and said incoherently: "...when... ...Ned...why did you suddenly..."
No wonder the little spider was so excited, Ned's situation in front of him was obviously that he had gained extraordinary power.
Just like when he became Spider-Man.
"I don't know exactly what's going on."
Facing his friend's questioning, the fat boy Ned scratched his hair and recalled with a confused expression.
"I only know that that day I went to the bookstore to buy the latest comic books as usual, and when I was passing through an alley, I was suddenly bumped into by a guy dressed strangely, and something fell from that person's body, but The guy didn't seem to notice and just walked away. When I picked up the dropped things, I discovered that there was a very beautiful dragonfly in the test tube. I thought it was just an insect specimen, but unexpectedly the dragonfly suddenly flew out of the test tube. , bit me on the neck, and when I woke up again, the dragonfly had flown to nowhere, and I had the abilities I have now..."
"Dragonfly, take one bite and mutate?"
Listening to his friend's explanation of the process of obtaining his abilities, Peter always felt a slight sense of disobedience for some reason.
These processes all sound so familiar, a bit like deja vu.
"Maybe it's just my imagination."
He shook his head to get rid of the feeling of disobedience in his heart.
Peter looked at Ned in front of him, and the first thing he cared about was what abilities he had gained after being bitten by a dragonfly and mutated.
"By the way, Ned, have you ever practiced the superpowers you gained?"
"No, I thought of you as soon as I found out I had acquired these abilities."
Shaking his head, Peter's arrival obviously played an extremely important role in calming down his emotions. By sharing his secrets, and after the initial panic of physical mutation, Ned's emotions finally became calmer.
He glanced down at his palms and murmured: "However, some of the most obvious changes are still very clear. For example, my strength has become stronger, my body has become harder, and my vision was not very good at first. It also became clearer, and I could even see clearly opposite Ms. Lens taking a shower..."
"Ned!"
Seeing that his friend's topic was getting more and more crooked, Peter had no choice but to give a reminder.
"All right."
The topic was interrupted, and Ned was obviously a little frustrated. He smacked his mouth and finally turned his attention from Ms. Rens back to his physical mutation.
"By the way, there's also this!"
Frowning and thinking again, Ned suddenly patted his head, took a deep breath, and then, under Peter's shocked gaze, he bounced upward with a flexibility beyond his plump figure, and actually stopped on the roof of the room. above.
"Climbing ability!"
Looking at Ned hanging upside down on the roof, the little spider felt a little more disobedient.
The ability displayed by Ned is obviously very similar to the clinging ability he possesses, and may even be the same ability.
"I can't hold on any longer!"
boom!
However, before the surprised expression on Peter's face could last too long, Ned, who was hanging on the roof, let out a scream, seemed to be unable to bear his own weight, and suddenly fell down to the ground. There was a huge crashing sound.
"Reed, what happened?"
"It's okay, Mom, I just accidentally fell off the bed!"
Hearing the shouts from downstairs, Reed quickly opened his mouth to explain.
Although the impact of the fall was not light, it was not serious given Reed's current physical defense capabilities.
"be careful."
"Got it, Mom!"
"How about it, Peter!"
After finally dealing with his mother, Reed turned to look at the little spider in front of him and asked with a somewhat excited expression: "Do you think with my current abilities, can I become a superhero like you?"
As a friend of the superhero, Ned would be lying if he said he didn't envy Peter.
Especially every time he saw reports about Spider-Man from newspapers and TV, and Spider-Man's actions towards himself and the Avengers, Ned felt vaguely envious.
However, he, who used to be just an ordinary person, could only hide this envious emotion in his heart.
But, things are different now, he has also gained superpowers.
"You said, if I want to make a superhero suit, what kind of suit should I choose and what kind of nickname should I choose? You said I was bitten by a spider, so I was called Spider-Man. Then I was bitten by a dragonfly. You said Dragonfly Man What about this name? If I make a suit, should I choose one that covers the whole face like you or one that only covers half of the face like Captain America? If it is fully covered, how should I breathe? Is it according to the mask under the mask? A tube connected to the mouth?”
The expression on Ned's face became visibly excited as he imagined himself transforming into a superhero.
After all, he had only learned about his experience as a superhero from Spider-Man's description before, but now that he has superpowers, he finally has the opportunity to experience it all for himself.
"Since we're all bitten by insects, how about we form a team, the Insect Alliance? Like the Avengers."
"In fact, spiders are not insects, but arthropods."
Seeing his friend who was getting more and more excited as he talked, Peter had no choice but to correct Ned.
Peter obviously had some complicated feelings about Ned's superpowers.
On the one hand, he was naturally happy, but on the other hand, there was always some indescribable subtle feeling about the abilities Ned had acquired.
It's like looking at a fatter version of myself.
