Superman Marvel Adventures

"Hey, what bad luck! Sorry, officer, although I really want to cooperate with you, I'm in a bit of a rush right now!" With that, he leaped over the heads of the police officers and shot off on a web.

Upon seeing this, the officer flew into a rage and shouted, "Damn it, chase him! Don't let Spider-Man get away!" He then got into the police car and began the chase.

Normally, these police officers would just go through the motions and wouldn't actually chase Spider-Man, but this time Spider-Man's recklessness completely ruined their work that they had been preparing for several weeks. This really stirred up a hornet's nest, and the angry police officers began searching for Spider-Man throughout the city, determined not to give up.

Spider-Man ran ahead, dodging police shots as he twisted his body, and complained, "Ugh, it's all Stark Industries' fault. Why did they have to design a freeze gun? Now look what's happened. These cops know these people have no side effects or harm, so they shoot at anything they see, making them even more lawless than before."

The freeze gun he just mentioned is the technology that Adam gave to Howard Stark. After so much research and development, this firearm has finally been promoted throughout the New York City Police Department system. Of course, its correct name is not freeze gun, but a very long name, but New Yorkers are used to calling it freeze gun.

These firearms, which have no lethal force but can only temporarily render criminals or those hit unconscious, are very popular with New York City residents. This is because NYPD officers are notoriously short-tempered, and various incidents used to frequently occur at their hands. However, since NYPD officers were equipped with cryogenic guns, accidental deaths have completely ceased. Furthermore, these guns have their own unique serial numbers and DNA identification systems, and each officer is assigned only one. Therefore, theft of police firearms is impossible, making them very safe for citizens.

The only thing that upsets the citizens is that these firearms are designed specifically for the police, and no one else can buy them.

Okay, we seem to have gone a bit off-topic. Let's look at our lovable Spider-Man. Because he really angered the police this time, even the aerial police were deployed to chase him. As a result, Spider-Man couldn't find any opportunity to take off his suit and could only hide and evade the police's pursuit.

And just then, his savior appeared.

"Hey Spider-Man, looks like you're pretty good at playing hide-and-seek with the NYPD." Adam hovered not far from Spider-Man with a smile on his face.

Spider-Man breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Adam and cried out, "Superman, help!"

Adam looked at the clown Spider-Man with a blank expression, shrugged, and said, "Every time I see you, it seems like you're being chased by someone."

Spider-Man replied, "There's nothing I can do. I'm just too handsome. Even though I wear a mask, my charisma can't be hidden, so people are always chasing after me."

Adam, seeing Spider-Man's cheeky antics, was at a loss for words. He could only turn to the police officers and say, "Gentlemen, if possible, please don't blame Spider-Man this time. As for the clues you're looking for, I think they're already on your boss's computer. Good luck, and I hope you can bring those criminals to justice soon."

At this moment, the police also received a call from their superiors, confirming that Superman was telling the truth. Therefore, they said, "Alright, we'll give you face this time, Superman, and not pursue Spider-Man's responsibility. However, Mr. Spider-Man, although we won't pursue criminal charges against you, I still hope to see you among the volunteers."

Spider-Man nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for forgiving me. I'll report to the volunteers tomorrow. And of course, I'll still be wearing this suit."

The policeman said, "Wear whatever you want, just put on some clothes." Then he left.

Spider-Man, upon hearing the policeman's words, immediately became furious and said, "Hey, what do these guys take me for?"

Adam laughed, "A superhero who hasn't grown up!"

Spider-Man smirked and said, "Alright, Mr. Old Man Superhero, what do you want with a kid like me?"

Adam snorted and said, "Of course I have something to say, but not now, but tonight. Come find me here at 7 p.m. tonight. There are some things I can discuss with you." He then handed a business card to Spider-Man.

He didn't quite understand Peter Parker. He always felt that Peter Parker had developed a dual personality because of his abilities. As Peter Parker, he was a quiet, tech-savvy guy who didn't like to stand out, but as the superhero Spider-Man, he was a chatterbox who kept talking non-stop, completely unlike his former self.

Spider-Man, of course, had no idea that Adam was thinking strange things. He looked at the business card in his hand, thought for a moment, and nodded, saying, "Sure, since you, the big boss, have invited me, of course I'll go. But you seemed to have used the word 'you all' earlier, did you invite someone else as well?"

Adam said mysteriously, "You'll see when the time comes. Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

Spider-Man shrugged and said, "Of course I know you wouldn't hurt me. Okay, I'll get there in time."

Adam chuckled, "Well, I have some things to do, so I'll be going now. Oh, and don't cause any more trouble, okay?" With that, he flew away in a flash.

Upon seeing this, Spider-Man said, "Hey, what do you mean by 'don't cause trouble'? Seriously, do you really think I'm a kid? But what is it that made him personally invite me?" After thinking for a while without figuring it out, he decided to stop thinking about it, shot out his webs, and left.

Spider-Man couldn't figure out who would be there that night, but he had a vague feeling that tonight's party might change something and was very important to him. So, Spider-Man seemed a little absent-minded all afternoon, which made his girlfriend Gwen Stacy a little unhappy.

"Peter, what are you thinking?"

Peter paused for a moment, then said, "Oh, it's nothing, just what happened this morning." He had already briefly explained what had happened that morning to Gwen.

Gwen bit her lip and said, "Are you wondering why Superman invited you?"

Peter nodded and said, "That's right, and he said 'you all speak' earlier, so there must be other people present. I'm wondering who they could be?"

Gwen rolled her eyes and said, "You've been guessing this for so long?"

Peter was taken aback and asked, "What? You already guessed it?"

Gwen nodded and said, "That's easy to guess. Since we're discussing things with 'you,' they must all be superheroes like you. Among the superheroes currently active in New York City, the more famous ones are Spider-Man, Punisher, Nite Owl, Daredevil, Kick-Ass, Big Daddy, and Hit-Girl. The people who will be here tonight will probably be some of these people."

Upon hearing this, Peter slapped his forehead and said, "That's right, I actually spent so long thinking about such a simple thing. But what exactly does he want to discuss with us?"

Gwen shrugged and said, "How would I know? But since Superman personally invited you instead of calling you, it means Superman cares a lot about this gathering. There must be something important going on. You'll find out when you get there. Why are you wondering about it here?"

Peter nodded and said, "That's true, thank you, Gwen."

Gwen rolled her eyes and said, "Given our relationship, there's no need for you to thank me. Besides, you're just blinded by your own perspective. Okay, let's leave this topic at that. We're here on a date, not to think about these kinds of things."

Peter glanced apologetically at Gwen and said, "Yes, we're on a date. We still have some time before our party tonight, how about we go see a movie first? I heard there's a really good new one out."

Ps:

Silence speaks louder than words.

Chapter 194 Rooftop Meeting

Because he was preoccupied with something, Peter Parker's date was canceled before 5 p.m. Gwen Stacy simply couldn't stand dating her absent-minded boyfriend. He was like a rag doll, staying with her the whole time but not saying a word, and even when he did, it was incoherent. In a fit of anger, she ended the date.

Seeing his girlfriend was angry, Peter Parker hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry, Gwen, I really..." Before he could finish, Gwen Stacy interrupted him.

“I know, Peter, I know you have to go home about tonight, so let’s go back first. Of course, I’m really angry today, so you’ll have to spend a few more days with me to get my forgiveness.” Gwen Stacy was indeed angry, but she also knew her boyfriend’s predicament, so she comforted him like this after calming down a bit.

Looking at the understanding Gwen Stacy, Peter Parker's eyes were full of tenderness as he said, "Thank you, Gwen. I'm so sorry about what happened today. Don't worry, I'll definitely take a few days to travel with you. Didn't you say you wanted to travel abroad? I'll go with you during winter break."

Gwen Stacy was taken aback and asked, "Huh? You mean it? You really want to go on a trip abroad with me? What about New York City?"

Peter Parker laughed and said, "That's right, I mean it. As for New York City? Well, I think things should be better after tonight's meeting. I don't think I'll have much of an impact if I take a short rest, especially with Superman around."

Gwen Stacy happily rewarded Peter Parker with a kiss, saying, "You have to keep your word! Otherwise, I'll get really angry."

Peter Parker nodded and said, "Yeah, of course. Okay, I'll take you back and then we'll see what he has to say." With that, he put his arm around his girlfriend, hailed a cab, and got in.

After dropping his girlfriend off at home, Peter Parker went back to tell his aunt and uncle that he had an important date that evening and asked them not to worry about him before leaving home in a hurry.

After leaving his house, he put on his protective gear in a dark corner and taught a lesson to the thugs who tried to rob him. Then, with a few leaps, he reached the rooftop, got his bearings, and headed towards the meeting place that evening. Along the way, he dealt with a few robberies and gang disputes, and by around 6 PM, he had arrived at the meeting place—the rooftop opposite a bar owned by Adam.

Looking down at the bustling bar, Spider-Man was speechless: "Okay, I knew it would be like this. Although he's toned it down a lot since he got a girlfriend, Adam Stark is still a playboy."

Just then, Spider-Man's spider-sense detected someone rapidly approaching him. Spider-Man immediately became alert, squinting at the distance. Soon, Daredevil, wearing a red bodysuit with two "D"s on his chest, leaped up from below with a thud.

Spider-Man was slightly taken aback when he saw this, and said, "Hi, how are you? Daredevil, nice to meet you."

Daredevil was startled upon hearing this. He hadn't expected there to be someone on the rooftop, and even his super hearing couldn't detect the other person's heartbeat, which made him watch the other person with great vigilance.

"Who are you? Why are you waiting for me here?"

Although Daredevil gained super hearing due to his blindness, and became a superhero to do something for his hometown, he was still just a normal human. Therefore, he didn't notice Spider-Man, who had already arrived and was on guard. However, he could tell from Spider-Man's voice that he meant him no harm.

Spider-Man chuckled, "Oh, I'm Spider-Man. Hmm, you also received Adam's invitation?"

Daredevil couldn't hear the other person's heartbeat, so he couldn't confirm their identity. He said, "Sorry, I can't see anything. So please prove your identity. Um, I can't hear your heartbeat, so I don't know if what you're saying is true."

Spider-Man was stunned for a moment and asked, "Huh? You can't see? How is that possible?"

Although he had heard of Daredevil before, he did not know that Daredevil was blind. Therefore, he was very surprised to hear that Daredevil was blind. He did not expect that Daredevil could still become a superhero despite being blind. This made Spider-Man suddenly admire Daredevil's ability and perseverance.

Daredevil, however, was used to such situations and said calmly, "That's right, I'm blind, but before that, please prove your identity."

Spider-Man shrugged, then with a whoosh, shot a web in another direction, saying, "I think you should believe me now, right?"

Upon hearing the sound, Daredevil instantly accelerated, arriving in the direction from which the web had been shot. He touched it with his hand and said, "Hmm. It's exactly the same as what I felt last time. I believe you are Spider-Man."

Spider-Man was taken aback and asked, "You've experienced this before? What does that mean?"

Daredevil's voice remained deep and calm as he said, "It's normal that I happened to run into you because you like to throw spider webs around everywhere and never take them back."

Spider-Man curled his lip and said, "Hey, buddy, what do you mean by throwing webs around? I was helping someone, okay? As for the issue of taking it back, the webs decomposed automatically after two hours, so it didn't cause any inconvenience to anyone."

Daredevil shrugged and said, "Really? But how come I heard about you littering while listening to the newspaper?"

Spider-Man was furious when he heard about the newspaper article. He said, "Hey, I get angry just thinking about this. What grudge does the editor-in-chief of the Daily Bugle have against me? He always reports bad news about me and tries to smear me. As a result, the police want to arrest me whenever they see me. I'm going crazy with anger because of him."

Just then, two more people arrived on the rooftop. Seeing Spider-Man and Daredevil, they said, "Looks like this gathering is going to be quite interesting."

Daredevil asked, "Who are they?"

Spider-Man looked at the other person's costume and said, "As long as this isn't a prank, those two should be the Punisher and the Night Owl."

Daredevil replied, "Hmm, it shouldn't be a prank, because I can sense that the other party is very powerful."

The Punisher said in a deep voice, "Spider-Man and Daredevil, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Night Owl then approached Spider-Man with a smile and said, "Hey, hello, I really like you, Spider-Man, especially your ability to walk anywhere, that's so cool."

A slightly dazed Spider-Man, swayed by Owl's enthusiasm, laughed and said, "Huh? You like me? Haha, I have fans now!"

Daredevil ignored Spider-Man and Nite Owl, and asked the Punisher, "Were you also summoned by Superman? Do you know what his purpose is?"

The Punisher said, "Yeah, he called us too. Although we have a good relationship with Superman, we really don't know what he's up to this time." Since becoming the Punisher, he has rarely contacted Adam, so he doesn't know what the other party wants to do.

When Nite Owl heard his father's words, he said, "I know, I know why Superman called us all over."

Spider-Man was taken aback and asked, "You know? What's the reason?"

Night Owl chuckled and said, "Of course I know. I heard him mention it before. He wants to organize superheroes like himself into an organization to handle things that a single superhero can't manage. And he's already prepared a lot of equipment at his villa."

Daredevil was taken aback and said, "Form a superhero team? How is that possible?"

Spider-Man nodded and said, "Yes, every superhero has their own pride and can't be so easily commanded by others. That's simply impossible."

The Punisher pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's not speculate here. Let's go in and ask Adam to find out everything and see what he has to say."

Spider-Man asked, "By the way, how do we get in? Although I trust you fellow superheroes, I still don't want to reveal my identity."

The Punisher smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about that. Adam has already made all the arrangements. There's no need to worry about your identities being exposed. Look, today's main event is a costume party, and the business cards you have are your invitations. It's that simple."

Ps:

It seems I, the unreliable author, have ruined the book's reputation. Sigh, I really can't update right now due to home renovations. Please understand. I'll try to update more frequently once the renovations are finished; it'll probably take another one to two weeks.

Chapter 195 A Meeting That Seemed Not So Pleasant

Spider-Man was taken aback upon hearing this and said, "A masquerade ball?"

The Punisher nodded and said, "That's right, it's a masquerade ball. As long as you use your special abilities inside, no one will know you're the real Spider-Man, because there are lots of Spider-Men there. Hey, look, a Spider-Woman just went in."

Spider-Man shrugged and said, "Well, I've certainly witnessed Adam's wisdom."

Night Owl curled his lip and said, "Adam's wisdom seems to be universally acknowledged."

Daredevil frowned and said, "Alright, let's go in. It seems like time is almost up, and I think there are more than just us here today."

The Punisher nodded and said, "That's right, let's go in. Being late is not gentlemanly, although I'm not exactly a gentleman myself." With that, he turned and went to the other side of the building, then jumped and disappeared.

Upon seeing this, Night Owl said, "Hey, Dad, wait for me!" and then left the rooftop even faster than the Punisher.
