Before the Punisher could think, he felt a murderous aura slowly approaching from behind. He stomped his foot hard on the ground to use the recoil to avoid the sneak attack from behind, then quickly drew his dual pistols and fired a few shots. He then hurriedly took out a pair of glasses from his multi-functional tactical bag and put them on.
Just then, the Punisher heard his son's voice from behind: "Hey, everyone, how about closing your eyes?" A bright white light flashed, allowing the Punisher, who was wearing special glasses, to instantly see the figures of several enemies. He fired several more shots, the bullets mercilessly piercing the ankles and wrists of two enemies dressed in black night clothes and wielding long swords, who appeared to be Japanese ninjas.
Meanwhile, Spider-Man Peter Parker easily dealt with the group trying to ambush him using his spider-sense. Then, using the flashbang thrown by Owl, he saw their outfits and couldn't help but mutter, "Hey, are these guys the legendary ninjas? Well, well, superpowers exist, I'll get used to these ancient professions reappearing in front of me. Hey, Owl, watch out!"
Night Owl ducked to avoid the ninja's knife, then slammed the stun baton in his right hand down on the man, knocking him to the ground. He said, "Hey, Spider-Man, how about we have a match?"

I'll start with one chapter a day. I'll save some more in a few days and adjust the update schedule.
Chapter 200 Chaotic Battle
P.S.: So what if I forgot to update? Is it really necessary to make such a fuss? I finished typing at 23:40 PM, but I still can't find the author login page. It keeps prompting me to register as an author. Do you want me to change my username?
Hearing Night Owl's words, Spider-Man bound a ninja who was about to launch a sneak attack with his webs and hung him from the roof, saying, "Alright, let's have a match, sounds exciting!" After all, Peter Parker was a young man about to graduate high school, so he didn't object to Night Owl's suggestion; instead, he found it quite interesting.
Night Owl laughed, "Alright, let's begin now!" He then activated the night vision function of his glasses and, relying on his advanced technology and superb fighting skills, knocked down the ninjas who had ambushed them one by one.
Spider-Man, with his super-sensory abilities, quickly dealt with the enemies and cleverly suspended them in mid-air. This made it easy to see which enemies Spider-Man had defeated and which others had taken down, much to the annoyance of Night Owl, who discovered that others were also fighting these ninjas who had suddenly appeared and attacked them. Surprisingly, the most outstanding among them was not his father, the Punisher, but Daredevil, who was already blind. It seemed that the darkness was his domain. Daredevil's fast and accurate fighting style and keen hearing made him second only to Spider-Man in combat achievements.
The superheroes waiting for Superman in the lobby, though startled by the sudden attack, quickly engaged in combat. After all, these people were intent on killing them, so they had no choice but to fight. Just moments before, one of the so-called superheroes had been about to surrender when a ruthless ninja chopped off his head and kicked him away.
Inside the bar, a chaotic battle was raging, while on the rooftop of the building just across the street, a tall man with a target tattooed on his forehead was looking at the screen in his hand with a disdainful expression.
Seeing this, Fox, who was standing next to him, laughed and said, "Bullseye, you seem to look down on these people."
After hearing this, Bullseye said, "They're just a bunch of rabble. The only ones worth noting are Spider-Man, Nite Owl, Punisher, and Daredevil. The rest are insignificant and pose no threat to us."
Fox nodded slightly and said, "Then what about those mutants? Are they also insignificant?"
Bullseye sneered, "Those mutants? Hmph, someone will deal with them. Look, they've already shown up, haven't they? But honestly, I don't want to deal with these guys at all. They're monsters!" He then instantly retreated, dodging an attack launched by Fox for some unknown reason. He casually flicked a dagger at his opponent.
He didn't care why the other party attacked him, but since they attacked him, he should be prepared to face death. This was his consistent way of doing things. This was Bullseye, who was infamous in the dark world, although his so-called fame was not a compliment.
Fox slightly sidestepped Bullseye's attack and said, "Saying mutants are monsters is going too far, Mr. Bullseye." With a strange wriggling motion, a Mystique with blue, keratinous skin, red hair, and golden eyes glared at him menacingly.
Bullseye stared coldly at Mystique and asked, "Where are the Foxes?"
Mystique sneered, "Then you'll have to ask Satan." With that, she pulled out two short swords and thrust them at the bullseye.
Even with so many Bullseyes living in the dark world, they weren't so easy to subdue. He quickly created distance between himself and his opponent, took out several daggers from his pocket, and threw them at Mystique with superhuman strength. Mystique sneered and used her short sword to deflect the throwing knives, seemingly trying to knock them down, but she almost fell victim to Bullseye's underhanded trick.
"No wonder you still manage to get by despite being wanted in the underworld. It turns out you're quite capable."
Bullseye asked, "Aren't we allies? Why are you suddenly attacking me? Is it because of what I just said? We have a common enemy now, and Magneto sent you here to help us, not to cause internal strife." Although he wasn't afraid of Mystique, he didn't want his boss's plan to fall through, so after forcing her to stop, he quickly asked his question.
Mystique toyed with the short sword in her hand. She said, "Don't try to intimidate me with Magneto. Although I'm with Magneto, I'm not his subordinate. Besides, you seem to have misunderstood something. Our Brotherhood's enemy isn't the X-Men, but all of humanity. The X-Men are merely people with opposing ideologies, not our enemies." She then launched another attack.
Actually, Mystique's actions weren't what she just said; there was another reason. This morning, she was preparing to visit a senior mutant with Magneto when they encountered someone they least wanted to meet—a man so powerful that even Magneto couldn't defeat him. Magneto spoke with this man alone for a while, and after the man left, Magneto changed his plans and returned to his secret base in New York City. He didn't bother to hide his whereabouts, which is why this man, who called himself Bullseye, approached them, wanting to cooperate with them against the X-Men.
Before setting off, Mystique met with Magneto alone and asked him why he was cooperating with that man. Magneto's answer was: "He promised to help us build a nation!"
While fighting Bullseye, Mystique was also quickly processing the whole story in her mind. It was clear that Mystique was not in a calm mood. Otherwise, as a woman who had lived for about a century and was a warrior with rich combat experience, she would not have been distracted during the battle. Even if the distraction was only for a few seconds, it would have been enough for Bullseye to escape Mystique's pursuit.
Mystique frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Never mind, let's go inside and see. Hopefully, he'll keep his word." With that, she gradually disappeared into the dark street.
By this time, the chaotic battle had been going on for about an hour. What puzzled everyone inside was that despite fighting for so long in the bar, especially after the mutants joined in and various explosions and amazing mutant abilities were unleashed, no police officers had arrived. It was as if they lived in a completely different world from the outside.
After knocking out one of the underground fighters who had joined the battle, Night Owl, slightly out of breath, asked Spider-Man standing beside him, "Hey, Spider-Man, have you noticed something?"
After nearly an hour of continuous fighting, even Spider-Man, whose memories had been altered, was starting to feel the strain. He was now soaked in sweat and wished he could take off his suit. Although his suit was very breathable, it couldn't withstand an hour of intense fighting.
"Ah, I already noticed. It seems we're trapped in a magic circle. I threw someone towards that window earlier, but they were bounced back by some strange energy." Spider-Man awkwardly tugged at his suit, which was now completely clinging to his body, and answered Owl's question listlessly.
Night Owl was taken aback and said, "A magic circle? The same one that Superman's rival sorcerer used in front of Times Square?"
Spider-Man nodded and said, "It should be the same, hey, buddy, watch out!" Then he pulled Night Owl away.
Just as Night Owl was about to say something, he realized that the spot where he had just been standing had turned into a swamp. If Spider-Man hadn't pulled him back, he would have been swallowed by the swamp before he could react.
Night Owl wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Ha, thanks. Damn it, there are mutants among these people. Damn it, weren't the mutants that appeared before confirmed to be our own? Why are there still mutants attacking us?"
Just as Night Owl finished speaking, a figure landed beside him with a thud. Spider-Man and Night Owl turned around and saw that the person who had been knocked away and landed next to them was actually Wolverine. This made the two of them feel a chill. Could there be such a powerful enemy here?
At this moment, the Punisher and Daredevil also retreated to Spider-Man and the others, their faces also very solemn as they stared at the white mist that had appeared out of nowhere.
Night Owl asked, "Dad, what happened? Have new enemies appeared?" But he found that Punisher and the others did not answer and continued to stare at the other side.
At this moment, Wolverine shook his head, stood up from the ground, and came to the Punisher and the others. He turned to Night Owl and Spider-Man and said, "Pay attention, this enemy is a bit tricky. Damn it, I was knocked away if I wasn't careful. If it weren't for my super regenerative abilities, I wouldn't be able to stand up. Be careful, this guy is not simple!"
Chapter 201 Hellfire Club Intervenes
Night Owl was still a child, so when he heard Wolverine's words, he said somewhat unhappily, "Ah, I know, Uncle, we already know he's not simple, because just now an old man was thrown over here by him." After saying that, he moved his feet and rushed into the gray mist.
Because of their superior overall strength, and because most of the crowd's attention was focused on the person slowly approaching them from the gray fog, they were unable to stop Night Owl's actions by the time they noticed him.
Spider-Man was startled when he saw Night Owl impulsively rush forward. His spider-sense had been warning him of danger since the beginning, so he didn't want Night Owl to get hurt. Although he knew that Night Owl was a bit childish, he was the only one among these people that Spider-Man found agreeable. So he gritted his teeth, left a message saying that he would go help him, and rushed in as well.
Fri
Wolverine cursed after seeing this and prepared to rush in to save people. Although the X-Men already knew the details of today's operation, an unexpected person had just appeared. Wolverine had been knocked away by the other party in a moment of carelessness, so he knew that the other party's strength was equal to his own. The two who had just rushed in were no match for that person.
Just then, two figures sped toward Wolverine and his men. As Daredevil and his companions prepared to attack, Wolverine leaped up and grabbed two objects. Only then did everyone realize that the two objects were Spider-Man and Owl, who had just rushed into the white mist.
The two are in a bad situation, their bodies tattered and battered, clearly seriously injured. If Wolverine hadn't caught them just now, our story might very well be missing Spider-Man and Night Owl, these two superheroes.
The Punisher quickly took his son from Wolverine's arms. After checking him over, he found that he was temporarily unharmed but unable to continue fighting. He then looked up at Wolverine and asked, "Who exactly is in there?" His voice was full of violence and murderous intent.
Upon hearing this, Wolverine frowned and said, "Calm down, Frank. That guy is quite a troublesome presence among mutants. We can't be reckless!" Although Wolverine is usually very impulsive in battle, he was unusually calm and composed today. His calm voice immediately silenced the superheroes standing behind the Punisher and the others.
After hearing this, the Punisher said, "Don't worry, I'm exceptionally calm right now. So, can you tell me who the other party is?"
"Hehe, let me introduce myself!" Just as Wolverine was about to say something, a very frivolous voice suddenly interrupted, and a refined man in a white tuxedo and black-rimmed glasses stood elegantly in front of them.
Upon seeing the man, Wolverine's muscles tensed instantly, while the Punisher placed his son next to the unconscious Spider-Man and asked, "Who are you?"
The refined-looking man smiled slightly and said, "Of course. As a nobleman, even though you are enemies, I still don't mind introducing myself. My name is Elias Einhart Bertje, from the Hellfire Club."
The Punisher looked at Wolverine with some confusion and asked, "Hellfire Club, what is that?"
Wolverine stared at Elias and said, "The Hellfire Club. A mysterious organization, much like S.H.I.E.L.D. now, an organization composed of the world's top humans and powerful mutants. But I don't know when the Hellfire Club became the lackeys of those blacklisted individuals?" The last sarcastic remark was directed at Elias, who had intimidated most of their group with just one person—this was not a scene Wolverine wanted to see.
Elias snorted and said, "Our Hellfire Club's affairs are none of your business, X-Men's or Brotherhood's business. I advise you to withdraw as soon as possible, or things will get really bad."
Wolverine grinned and said, "Sorry, Adam told me to take care of these people before he left, so I have to offend you." With that, he roared and punched Elias on the head.
Upon seeing this, Elias said, "What a troublesome guy! He's forgotten his lesson again." With that, he waved his hands, and two shockwaves struck Wolverine's claws and chest respectively, sending Wolverine flying once more.
Seeing how powerful the enemy was, one of the superheroes standing behind Daredevil complained, "Damn it, how are we supposed to fight someone this strong? And what kind of Superman is he? Where did he go? Is this just a trap set by Superman?!"
This guy's words momentarily stunned some of the superheroes who were preparing for a desperate fight, and they also thought of today's protagonist, Superman Adam Stark. They had been fighting for so long, during which at least a dozen of them had suffered varying degrees of injury, and several unfortunate individuals had been killed. This made the superheroes begin to suspect Adam's involvement.
"Yes, it seems we've been tricked."
"Yeah, it's possible that Adam Stark has seen too many superheroes and is getting annoyed."
"Yes, yes, and think about it, during the previous attack, it seemed like that mutant already knew about the attack!"
“Yes, maybe this guy named Elias was hired by Adam Stark. I investigated some information about the Hellfire Club before and found that Adam Stark’s father, Howard Stark, was also a member of the Hellfire Club.”
Almost instantly, the superheroes began to discuss among themselves, increasingly convinced that the gathering was a conspiracy, and growing angrier. Some even laid down their weapons and surrendered. Only the Punisher and eight others remained standing, determined to fight Elias to the death. The others were cowards, lying on the ground in surrender. Oh, right, Spider-Man and Owl don't count; they were knocked unconscious.
Wolverine was no match for his opponent, and the superheroes still fighting desperately were mostly ordinary humans with no special abilities. The situation on this side seemed very bad. On the other side, the X-Men, due to the intervention of the Hellfire Club, had most of the dangerous mutants blocking the X-Men and a few members of the Brotherhood of Mutants. Therefore, they could not provide support to the Punisher and his group, and could only pray for a miracle. Of course, this was only the X-Men's wishful thinking. The Brotherhood, on the other hand, was somewhat gloating. Although they had to join forces with the X-Men because of Magneto's orders, they were quite happy to see their opponent, Wolverine, suffer.
"It seems to be getting lively here. Well, now that all the actors are here, let's begin tonight's performance!"
Just then, a miniature magic circle appeared in front of the Punishers, and a woman dressed in golden classical armor and holding a longsword appeared—it was our Sun Goddess Christine.
Elias was slightly taken aback and said, "Sun Goddess? No wonder we sensed a strange energy shield around us earlier. It was all thanks to you."
Christine shrugged and said, "I originally wanted to activate the magic circle earlier, but then I saw your people approaching the bar, so I hid and waited for you to take the bait. Sure enough, when the battle was at its most intense, your people couldn't help but make a move. In order not to cause unnecessary damage to the city, I activated the magic circle and then watched the show with Athena inside."
Elias narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that one was right. This gathering is a conspiracy orchestrated by Adam Stark." Even at this point, Elias did not forget to use the tactic of sowing discord, because he was absolutely certain that he could leave here safely.
Christine pointed her sword at Elias and said, "Stop with your ridiculous conspiracy theories. Superman does things honestly and uprightly, and you won't tolerate his slander." Although this gathering was more or less Adam's scheme, Adam's intentions were good after all. Moreover, Adam Stark was Christine's lover, so how could she allow others to slander him?
Elias sneered, "Since you dare to do it, don't be afraid of what others say!" With that, he conjured several high-density air bullets with his hands and threw them at Christine.
Ps:
Looking at the subscription numbers makes me want to cry. Sigh, no matter how I try to make excuses, it's all in vain. I brought this on myself. I hope things will get better in the future!
Chapter 202 The Battle Ends
Seeing the energy ball flying towards her, Christine snorted and swiftly used her longsword to slash at it. Elias, seeing this, smiled contemptuously, thinking Christine was incredibly foolish to try and split the energy ball with her sword. Therefore, to embarrass Christine, he put away his smile and, with a serious expression, launched the energy ball, preparing to make it explode when Christine split it.
Unfortunately, what Elias didn't know was that Christine was not only a warrior but also an excellent mage. Seeing Elias's actions, she changed her longsword from slashing at the energy ball to slapping it back.
Elias was startled, for he suddenly realized he couldn't control the energy ball. He raised his left hand to create a wind wall, barely managing to block the impact of the energy ball's sudden explosion. But Christine wouldn't let him get away with it so easily. Almost instantly, she appeared to Elias's left, wielding her longsword with both hands and slashing towards his waist.
At that moment, a pair of wind-formed wings rapidly materialized behind Elias, dodging Christine's attack. Standing in mid-air, Elias spread his wings and unleashed countless wind cones that roared towards Christine and the group behind him.
Christine roared in anger, "You're asking for death!" and plunged her longsword into the ground. Instantly, a magical screen appeared, blocking most of the wind cones. Then, several soft thuds were heard, and Wolverine and the others discovered that the people who had spoken ill of Adam and incited others to believe that this was nothing more than Adam Stark's conspiracy were now lying in pools of blood.
The Punisher whispered to Wolverine, "Do you know this Sun Goddess? It seems her relationship with Adam is somewhat different."
Wolverine nodded slightly and said, "I know her. As for her relationship with Adam, you'd better let them tell you themselves. I can't say. Sigh, I wonder how things are going on Ororo?" He then turned to look at the other side, but because the battle between mutants was quite violent, they were no longer in the second-floor hall. Wolverine could only see occasional flashes of lightning or snow through the large hole smashed open on his left.
The Punisher looked at the group behind him and said, "Don't just stand there. Find somewhere to hide. This kind of battle is not something you can get involved in."
These guys thought they could survive just by lying down, but they didn't realize how powerful Elias's attack was. That was just their perception; although they suspected Christine might have done it intentionally, they didn't dare question it, after all, not every superhero is like Adam, especially one with such immense power. Therefore, upon hearing the Punisher's words, they scrambled behind a pillar, not daring to even raise their heads.
Elias sneered upon seeing this, "As expected, the most venomous heart is that of a woman. Even superheroes are no exception. You used my hand to kill those who spoke disrespectfully to Adam Stark. It seems you are no different from us."
Christine drew her longsword from the ground and said calmly, "No. We are different!" With that, a small magic circle appeared beneath her feet, and she leaped into the air, slashing fiercely at Elias.
Oh, by the way, there's a reason why Christine has been using melee attacks instead of her more proficient magic. Firstly, maintaining the magic circle outside the bar requires a huge amount of magical power. Secondly, as mentioned earlier, Christine's magical power hasn't fully recovered, so she can only use some minor spells.
Fortunately, Christine is not just a simple magician. She is a powerful warrior skilled in both magic and martial arts. As the daughter of the sun god and the sun goddess, she inherited her father's powerful physique, so this kind of battle is no challenge for her at all.
Sure enough, Elias soon realized that he couldn't keep up with Christine's attack speed at all, and that he was using his abilities too frequently and was starting to feel overdrawn. After shouting angrily and forcing Christine back, he dispersed his wind wings and landed on the ground.
"Get me out of here!"
Upon hearing this, Christine knew that the other party was preparing to run away, and he seemed to have a sense of confidence in his previous demeanor, so she immediately focused her attention on guarding against any potential enemies.
However, the person he imagined did not appear. Ilyas's expression changed and he was about to say something when Christine, who had been paying attention to Ilyas, approached him and knocked him unconscious, as Ilyas was already exhausted.
