Chapter 207 Another Companion
Chapter 207 Another Companion
In less than two hours, Cindy Moon perfectly integrated the power of the spider. In the subway car returning from the visit, she discovered Chu Yi who had been following her.
In this universe, Cindy's parents unfortunately died during the last Chitauri Legion invasion, and even the house was destroyed.
The small insurance money allowed her to move to a cheap apartment near Hell's Kitchen.
Her character has also become taciturn due to successive misfortunes, and she is more transparent than Peter Parker in school.
"Who are you and why are you following me!"
Cindy Muen looked at Chu Yi warily, but did not do anything drastic.
Because her super spider sense told her that Chu Yi had no ill intentions towards her, and it also allowed her to sense the unimaginably huge and terrifying power hidden in Chu Yi's body.
"My name is Chu Yi. You must have never heard of my name, but you should have heard of my other name, 'Punisher One'——"
As he spoke, Chu Yi unzipped his jacket, revealing the black suit he was wearing underneath. Although many people had imitated this kind of suit after the Justice League became popular, the unique metallic texture of the real thing was unmistakable. You can tell whether it is true or false.
"I am following you to ensure that you are not in any danger after being bitten by that spider, but now it seems that you have gained very good abilities, so I would like to invite you to join us on behalf of the Justice League." Chu Yi said gently. said with a smile.
It had been a long time since he had recruited new members, which made him suddenly feel nostalgic.
He has a lot of confidence in Cindy because Cindy's parents died due to alien invasion.
"What happened to that spider that bit me?" Cindy asked.
"That is an experimental product of Osborne Industries. Norman Osborne, the chairman of Osborne Industries, has been conducting research on various biological genes, including super lizards, super spiders, super electric eels, etc. Later they We also obtained Hulk serum and Chitauri corpse samples. The various experimental subjects created are becoming more and more dangerous, so we have been paying attention to Osborn Industries to prevent him from bringing harm to humans. What kind of disaster, such as a biological crisis or something like that?" Chu Yi explained.
He was not lying, it was indeed true, but Osborn Industries was also a large company with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars. Even SHIELD would not be able to touch them before it actually caused a disaster.
In addition, compared to what Pioneer Technology, Hydra and Gene Energy are doing, Osborn Industries is relatively low-key, so both SHIELD and the Justice League are keeping an eye on them, but The level of attention is not particularly high.
"Then can I continue to go to school after I join you?" Cindy asked.
"Of course~" Chu Yi said with a smile, "Members of the Justice League usually have their own work and life, and they only gather for action when needed. However, due to actions, work is sometimes delayed or even fired directly, so The Justice League will provide members with a monthly subsidy of [-] US dollars. In addition, if you need it, the League can also provide you with a safe and comfortable residence."
Cindy looked surprised before she could finish hearing this: "Fifty thousand US dollars a month? Isn't that too much?"
Fifty thousand US dollars was indeed a lot for a student like her, and it was definitely a middle-class income level in New York. But for the Justice League, which was co-funded by him, Tony and S.H.I.E.L.D., this amount of money was really A piece of cake.
"Okay, I'll join you!" Taking a deep breath, Cindy tried to look calmer.
Well, she only joined because she agreed with the philosophy of the Justice League, definitely not because of the $[-] monthly subsidy.
"Haha, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. Superheroes are human beings too, and they also need to eat and live, right? By the way, if you choose to live in the Justice League headquarters, three meals a day plus late-night snacks are provided for free, and there The chefs are all Tony Stark, aka Iron Man—"
"I know him! That rich playboy!"
"——Well, that's right, that guy is now famous and has changed his gender. The chefs at the headquarters are all hired by him at high prices, and their level is no less than that of the so-called three-star Michelin~"
"Gudu!"
Cindy swallowed subconsciously.
"Well... I just awakened my superpower and it seemed that I had consumed a lot of energy, so... I just..."
Cindy couldn't help but blush after reacting.
Fortunately, Chu Yi changed the topic in time.
"Then let's go eat first. After dinner, you go home and pack your things. I also want to see your other companion."
"Another companion?"
"A girl who was also bitten by that super spider, I hope she can also successfully obtain superpowers like you and not be in any danger."
Fortunately, this did not happen. Chu Yi and the enthusiastic Cindy quietly followed Gwen for two days until Gwen had fully adapted to her spider abilities and discovered them using her spider sense.
"Who are you?"
Gwen's reaction was much greater than that of Cindy, and her power control was far inferior to that of Cindy. He jumped back seven or eight meters away, raised one hand to block it in front of him, and took out his mobile phone with the other. His face was alert and he looked like he was going to call the police.
"..."
Fortunately, Chu Yi could still hold it in, but Cindy burst out laughing.
"Don't be nervous, we don't mean any harm-"
Chu Yi introduced his identity and explained his purpose just like he did to Cindy before.
Unlike Cindy, Gwen has a family, so she is more entangled than Cindy.
Although she is a girl, she is still a high school student, and she must have imagined that one day she will gain superpowers and become a superhero to save the world. However, she is more mature than Peter Parker and thinks more than Peter Parker.
Before Chu Yi even mentioned it, she already thought about the price she would have to pay to become a superhero.
But in the end, she chose to join as expected.
Because her father George, as the chief, also faces various dangerous criminals every day. When aliens invade, as the chief, he also has to evacuate the people and prevent the police from resisting.
Now that she has the ability, she naturally wants to help her father share some of the burden.
Coupled with her own sense of justice, even though she knew that her father definitely did not want her to become a superhero and was afraid that she would be in danger, she would not look back.
"But my identity must be kept secret from my father."
"No problem, your information will be classified as alliance secret. Even as a formal member, only me, Iron Man and Pyro Coulson are qualified to know."
