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

Chapter 86 Ai Yi's Dinner

At the Daily Planet, a reporter named Clark Kent is editing today's news at his computer. No one knows that this seemingly ordinary newspaper employee has another identity—

That's the superhero who protects the metropolis.

Clark kept typing on the keyboard, thoroughly enjoying this peaceful and tranquil life. However, just as he was savoring this hard-won daily routine, a breeze suddenly blew by.

Clark, whose senses were extremely sharp, frowned slightly and looked up in the direction from which the breeze was coming. The field of perception that covered a range of about 100 meters around him instantly spread out.

As a superhuman, all his senses are extremely sharp, but he can naturally control these senses so that they don't interfere with his daily life.

Generally speaking, all his senses are maintained within a 500-meter radius around him, and he will pay attention to any unusual fluctuations.

That breeze was quite peculiar, containing a strange force field. If calculated, it seemed that the force field could instantly destroy the entire city.

Clark immediately extended his senses to cover almost the entire South American region and quickly located the source of the breeze—its origin was in Los Angeles, but it seemed that the battle had already ended for the time being.

Superman was feeling the aftershocks of Li Buying tearing apart Gabriel's avatar, and now he was falling from the sky.

"Louise, I'm going out for a bit. My informant told me there's some important news. Please tell the editor."

After telling his girlfriend, Clark disappeared from the company. His figure, barely visible, flew out of the metropolis and appeared at the battle site about 30 seconds later, where he also saw some old acquaintances with whom he felt somewhat awkward.

Those were Doctor Fate and his group who had previously targeted him. Although the misunderstanding had been cleared up, it was still somewhat awkward to meet them again.

"Looks like you've already resolved it?"

Superman asked a question first to ease the awkwardness, and Doctor Fate stood up and nodded: "Superman, thank you for coming, but we have already resolved the matter."

"That's good, but you should have called me before this happened. Oh, it's not that I think you guys can't handle it..."

Superman spoke very seriously, then, fearing the superheroes before him might misunderstand, quickly explained. Doctor Fate smiled and said:

"Don't worry, I'm not some kid superhero, I wouldn't get angry over this. The main reason I didn't call you is because this is a magical crisis, and with your magic resistance, I think if you were there, you might become their henchman."

"I see."

Hearing about the magical crisis, Superman was indeed a little uneasy. He had been controlled by Doctor Fate for a minute or two before he broke free. What if he had been controlled by the villain for that minute or two...

The consequences would indeed be unimaginable.

Superman scanned the people in front of him, memorizing their faces. He was slightly curious when he saw the masked Li Buying, but he did not use his X-ray vision to see Li Buying's face under the mask.

With a slight nod to everyone, Superman leaped into the air and disappeared into the horizon.

……

That's Superman! He's so powerful.

Li Buying gazed longingly at the departing Superman, then, with a struggle, was pulled to her feet by Black Adam and stretched vigorously.

"Now that things are completely over, I'll be going. I still need to figure out how to recover."

Upon hearing the weaver's words, Doctor Fate hesitated slightly, mainly because before the battle, the official organization wanted Li Buying to join, and they wanted the doctor to persuade her.

However, since they were all fighting side by side, and the Doctor was somewhat afraid that the terrifying power unleashed by the weaver would be exploited by the authorities, he didn't stop him from leaving but instead agreed to it.

"Alright, but weaver, if you want to ensure you're not disturbed, I might need to revise the official report. I wonder..."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Doctor Fate. I don't care about empty titles; just say that you and the authorities sealed the Hell Passage."

Li Buying was naturally overjoyed at this, as reducing trouble was always a good thing.

"I would like to thank you again for your understanding, Mr. Weaver."

Seeing that the weaver readily agreed, Doctor Fate breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that things would be much simpler afterward. He gave a few instructions to the still dazed Angela Dawson, and then left with Hawkman and his wife, as well as Black Adam.

"What a hassle, but thankfully it's finally over."

Constantine sighed slightly, took out a cigarette and was about to light it when his finger paused slightly. He then put it back in the cigarette case and threw it into the trash can next to him under Li Buying's gaze.

Li Buying asked, seemingly casually, "Why aren't you smoking anymore?"

"In short, I gained a lot from this trip to hell, and I generally don't need to worry about going to hell anymore."

Constantine smiled calmly and joyfully, and said to Angela, who was crying because she had seen her sister's spirit, "Let's go, I'll take you back. If you have any trouble in the future, just call me."

"Yes, thank you again..."

Angela sobbed, and Li Buying, not wanting to travel with them, waved goodbye to the two.

……

Using Apparition to return to his home, Li Buying lay down on the bed. The sound of bowls and chopsticks clattering against the table rang out. He opened his eyes and saw that Ai Yi had made a bowl of fried rice and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and placed it on the table.

"Master, welcome back. I have prepared human food. Would you like to taste it and give your feedback?"

The all-powerful mechanical girl tilted her head to look at Li Buying. He got up and sat at the desk, tasting the food Ai Yi had made. His eyes gradually brightened, and after finishing the meal, he nodded in satisfaction.

"You did a great job, Ai."

"Thank you for the compliment. I followed the methods that did not use the word 'appropriate amount,' and it seems that this choice was wise."

Ai Yi smiled through her now-stable pink lips, but the other four features on her face were still not stable, making her look even more terrifying than when her face kept changing.

Li Buying had at least some resistance, and he gently pulled her long, golden hair, which felt no different from that of an ordinary person, all the way to the end. It was smooth and didn't get tangled at all.

Feeling Li Buying's actions towards her, Ai Yi asked:

"Would you like me to give you a massage? According to scientific research, people your age usually have a lot of energy, and massage can effectively reduce excess energy."

"Hmm... not yet, let's wait until you're completely stable. Doing it now might affect your shaping."

Li Buying hesitated for a moment, but ultimately refused. However, she was indeed very tempted, thinking that Ai Yi's massage would be very comfortable, after all, she was a robot.

"It's okay, I can use my hands and—"

Observing the subtle expressions on the boy's face, Ai Yi lowered her head so that Li Buying wouldn't see her other facial features that were always distorted, and got up to stand behind Li Buying.

The mechanical girl placed her hand on his shoulder and pressed down hard, gradually relaxing Li Buying's body.

Ai massaged him from behind for a moment, then opened his mouth, moved his jaw slightly, and stepped forward.
