American comics: Starting with gaining Spider-Man's abilities

Chapter 37 The Big Event Begins

In the time that followed, New York's entire underground society was violently shaken.

Since the deaths of Hammerhead, Tombstone, Mr. Negative, and other bosses, the notorious mafia leaders have been living in fear, hiding themselves deeper and deeper, lest they be discovered by that dark version of Spider-Man.

The overall environment in New York is improving. There aren't many bosses who dare to let their men disrupt society and then force the police to arrest Li Buying. Generally speaking, these mafia members still don't dare to go against the police.

There are only a handful of people left who dare to do this. Kingpin, the most powerful of them all, is now losing control of his schemers and ambitious men, and he is trying to figure out how to deal with them.

As for the other ringleaders who wanted to coerce the police, their whereabouts were quickly exposed, and Li Buying tracked them down layer by layer based on their movements. The rest is history.

After killing the tombstone and gaining the ability to mimic, his movements became increasingly elusive. After killing two people, the leaders who had tried to coerce the police no longer dared to do so and obediently told their subordinates to behave themselves.

As for why clothes can mimic appearances?

Li Buying's mimicry ability applies not only to his body but also to the silk threads; he can simply put on a layer on the outside.

New York fell into a state of calm after Li Buying's killing spree; at least the ordinary gangsters no longer dared to be too arrogant.

This is good for society as a whole, but not so good for Li Buying.

He killed two gang leaders known as Water Viper and Giant Viper, and could no longer find any trace of them, which prevented him from continuing to upgrade his abilities.

However, they did manage to kill the two leaders, obtaining the upgrade modules [Secondary Body Enhancement] and [Deadly Venom] respectively.

Li Buying should also stop now. He noticed that there have been more plainclothes officers around his house recently, which means that the police or S.H.I.E.L.D. are starting to suspect him.

But it doesn't matter. Once he gains a new superpower, he can use that superpower to disguise his Spider-Man-like strength.

Even if she is found missing, Li Buying can say that although she went out, she was not a "weaver".

Finally, five days after killing the giant viper, Li Buying received a notification from the system—

Big news is coming.

……

Special reminder: There are only two days left until the little rascal is caught.

Upon seeing the system notification, Li Buying, who was on her way home, paused slightly, opened her phone, and glanced at the news photos she had saved.

On the very day he killed the giant viper, the Mutant Registration Act was discussed again, and no one expected Magneto to take action so quickly.

"Hopefully, the brain shut-off surgery will work."

He tapped his head. He had been practicing Occlumency during this time, but he wasn't sure if the magical Occlumency could counter Professor X's superpowers.

He took out his phone and asked his teacher for a long-term sick leave. Because he had been frail and sickly for a long time, his words did not arouse the teacher's suspicion. In addition, given his usual good student image, the school easily approved his leave application. All he had to do was go to the high school today to sign the application.

After signing the leave application, Li Buying went home, took out a large number of weapons she had prepared for a long time from the basement, put them all into the storage space, and left the house with a backpack.

This action quickly attracted the attention of the plainclothes police officers, who immediately informed their superiors.

Nick Fury, who was busy with many things, glanced around casually and checked his destination on his computer. When he found out that it was Westchester County, he symbolically had two plainclothes officers follow him.

Lorna Dane also noted that he assumed Li Buying was visiting her sister and didn't pay much attention.

Nick Fury has been incredibly busy lately. With the release of the Mutant Act, he's trying to get the higher-ups to rescind or withdraw it. The Iron Man issue has just been resolved, and now he also has to deal with the Avengers' formation plan.

In addition, all sorts of strange things are happening: a strange hammer falls to Earth, a monster called the Hulk appears and the military tries to capture it, Hydra's secret operations...

To be honest, he was getting really annoyed.

As Li Buying walked down the street, he noticed that the plainclothes officers who had been following him were gradually leaving, leaving only two. He ignored the last two and immediately boarded the train to Westchester.

Li Buying had an idea: what would have happened if Xiao Taoqi hadn't been caught on the train, or what would have happened if she hadn't left school?

As for where Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youngsters, also known as Xavier's Academy, is located, it has already been found.

He had already searched on his phone, but the college's location wasn't listed on the webpage. He only found the college's address when he checked the university's website.

That's right, you can find it on the school's website. X Academy is actually a legal and compliant school. The website states that it is "dedicated to cultivating high-IQ talents" and is a school that only accepts geniuses.

After checking the address on the website again, Li Buying sat in the car seat watching the scenery along the train route, feeling extremely nervous.

That's Magneto, what if he's the kind of character from the comics—

"No, probably not. If it were really that level of power, mutants would have already had their own territory."

Li Buying dismissed her own guess, took out a drink from her backpack, and took a sip.

The train arrived at the station quickly. The boy got off, glanced at the sign for the Seren district above his head, and headed towards the vicinity of X Academy. After arriving at the nearest campus, he rented a hotel to settle down temporarily.

Sitting in a chair at the hotel, he hesitated for a moment, looking at Lorna's number on his phone, but ultimately decided against calling.

What he's about to do is a bit dangerous. Lorna should stay at school and wait until things are over before he goes to see her.

Upon entering the hotel bathroom, Li Buying took out a hood from her pocket and put it on, revealing the spiderweb pattern.

Perhaps because of his urgency and impatience, the abstract spider pattern became very aggressive.

It grew barbs on its eight claws, and its claws became increasingly complex, as if it wanted to devour a person whole. Its body was shrouded in a black mist-like aura.

Li Buying watched the spider crawling on her face, took a deep breath to calm herself, and jumped out of the window under the cover of night, shaking off the two people following her, and headed to X Academy.

……

Unbeknownst to Li Buying, shortly after his departure, someone else received news that he had left New York.

In the dimly lit room, the light from the computer illuminated the collar and chin of a man in a suit, while his head was mostly hidden in darkness.

Looking at the report on the computer and the photo of Li Buying leaving, the man smiled slightly: "She's left New York, huh."

The man immediately called the two men, adjusted his voice changer, and said, "Assassin Shrike and Silver Warrior, I need you to go to Westchester County to test someone."

If you find him and he's just an ordinary person, then capture him. If he's not an ordinary person and you can't defeat him, you can retreat first. By the way, Hydra agents will assist you.

After hanging up the phone, the man opened a program with a Hydra logo. With a series of operations, a blueprint appeared on the computer, which looked similar to equipment such as electromagnetic weapons or anti-aircraft guns.
