Plunder the Heavens from American Comics

Chapter 42 Peter is beaten

"Uh...she is me, my distant cousin! Yes! Distant cousin!" Jonathan quickly made up an identity for Selina.

Fortunately, Selena and I didn't do anything particularly intimate just now, we just touched each other's faces.

"Let's not talk about other things for now. What happened to your injuries?"

Then Jonathan changed the subject.

We can't let Gwen hear about Selina's existence from Peter's big mouth.

If she knew about this, who knows how she would react. If she went directly to George to complain, she would probably come to her house and shoot her.

"Your distant cousin? But you two were clearly very intimate just now." Peter looked at Jonathan strangely.

"She and I have a good relationship. Let's not discuss her for now. Let me help you treat your wound first!"

After saying that, Jonathan shouted to Serena on the sofa, "Serena, go get the medicine box!"

After watching Serena go into the bathroom to get the medicine box, Peter asked Jonathan with a little confusion, "Aren't you distant relatives? How come you have such a good relationship?"

"Hey, Peter. Listen. I want you to keep this matter of my distant cousin a secret for me."

Jonathan said in a very serious tone.

"Why?" Peter was a little confused. He didn't understand why Jonathan kept it a secret.

"She didn't enter the United States through formal channels. If Gwen knew about this, then George would know about it. So..."

Hearing this, Peter opened his mouth as if he had understood something and uttered a long "oh".

Then he quickly made a gesture of using his mouth as a zipper and then tightening it.

"Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you."

It is very normal for someone to have a relative who has illegally immigrated to their home during this year.

So Peter Parker didn't doubt anything anymore.

Jonathan finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that he had fooled Peter. But if he wanted Peter, who was a chatterbox, to keep the secret completely, he would probably need to do some more.

At this time, Selena also brought the medicine box.

Jonathan asked as he tended to Peter's wound.

"Peter, what happened? Why are you so wounded?"

Looking at the long claw marks, Jonathan estimated that it was most likely done by Dr. Lizard.

Sure enough, Peter asked, "Have you watched TV recently? Have you seen the news about the lizard man?"

Jonathan nodded. As expected, it was Dr. Lizard who did it.

"I found him and had a fight with him."

While helping Peter disinfect, Jonathan continued, "And then he beat you like this?"

Hearing this, Peter also felt that this seemed a bit lame.

But this is the fact, so I could only nod a little disappointedly.

Jonathan sighed, guessing that Peter's camera had probably been dropped into the sewer just like in the original plot.

At that time, Dr. Lizard will go to the school to find Peter.

Thinking of this, Jonathan got a headache.

Then I thought that Dr. Lizard Connors would go to Osborn Building to release poison gas, turning all the people in New York City into lizard people along with him.

Jonathan was very conflicted about whether or not to tell Peter in advance.

But Peter is a big mouth, and if I tell him, he will definitely ask me the whole story.

Thinking of this, Jonathan decided not to create any extra trouble.

I might as well just deal with Dr. Lizard myself.

Afterwards, with Jonathan's help, Peter Parker's wounds were quickly treated.

Looking at the wounds on Peter's body that had not healed for a long time, Jonathan thought that compared to vampire bloodline, the self-healing ability of Spider-Man's bloodline was indeed not a little bit worse.

After that, Peter changed his clothes and said goodbye to Jonathan. Before leaving, he looked back to see if Selena had followed him out.

Then he whispered to Jonathan, "Jonathan, I will keep your cousin's affairs a secret for you. But in exchange, can you..."

"Don't worry, I won't let anyone know that you are Spider-Man." Jonathan patted Peter on the shoulder and said.

Hearing this, Peter was finally relieved. He smiled, left the block, and prepared to walk home.

Back home, Jonathan went to his room and opened the closet.

A cardboard box was found inside.

"What are you looking for?" Selena followed with a little curiosity.

"Something that might be useful tomorrow."

Although it is uncertain whether, with his intervention, Dr. Lizard knew that Spider-Man was Peter as in the original book.

But just in case, Jonathan felt he still needed to be prepared.

Jonathan rummaged for a long time and finally found a pile of masks from the bottom of the box.

They are all characters like the King of Hell and the Judge in hell.

These were all the relics his father left him. He never thought that they would be useful one day.

Picking up a Ksitigarbha mask, Jonathan put it on his face.

When I looked in the mirror, it fits my face quite well.

"Why are you looking for this thing?" Selena asked a little puzzledly as she watched Jonathan constantly admiring himself wearing a mask in the mirror.

"To cover my identity. I don't want to become the enemy of the United States," said Jonathan.

Unlike Tony Stark, Jonathan doesn't like to expose himself to the public.

Moreover, his identity here is not enough for him to expose himself to the public.

You know, Tony is one of the American consortiums, so even if he reveals his identity as Iron Man, others can't do anything to him.

But I am different.

First of all, I am a mixed-race Chinese.

If people knew that I had super powers, I would definitely not be loved by New Yorkers.

They can only be captured and put on the operating table for slice research.

After all, even Tony was once asked by those guys in Congress to hand over the combat suit technology to the US government.

What’s more, I am just an ordinary Asian mixed-race?

If it weren't for the concern that the lizard people might attack the school tomorrow and cause harm to Gwen.

Also, I’m afraid that one day I’ll turn into a lizard man while sleeping.

Jonathan didn't want to get involved in such troublesome things.

After confirming that the mask was fine, Jonathan threw it into the dimension.

"Is there anything you need me to do tomorrow?" Selena looked at Jonathan with a little concern.

She also saw the lizard man when she was watching TV with Jonathan.

It looks like it's very strong.

She looked at Jonathan a little worriedly.

"Just stay on standby in the dimensional world tomorrow. I'll call you if I need anything."

Hearing this, Jonathan did not reject Selina's kindness. After all, judging from the data alone, Dr. Lizard and Spider-Man are actually evenly matched.

This means that in terms of strength, the opponent absolutely crushes you.

So when facing Dr. Lizard, Jonathan did not arrogantly think that he could easily crush him.
