Chapter 707: Enemy Behind You

Zhang Heng and Shen Xixi walked around the riverside, and despite feeding the multitudinous mosquitoes that hounded them like hungry wolves, they did not manage to bring out Master Yoda as hoped.

“Maybe soone else is on duty tonight. Should I try putting on Hermione’s costu to see if I can bring out Dumbledore?” Shen Xixi said.

“Are you sure?”

Zhang Heng had seen the costu in the box and could understand why the latter had beco so angry at that ti. There was a reason why the previous owner treasured this costu. There were no problems with its looks and was even made with fine craftsmanship as well. However, the sizes of the shirt and skirt were too small. It appeared that this set was designed to fit a kid. If Shen Xixi put it on, she could probably only get to cover her privates.

“Or...” Shen Xixi took a breath, “Let’s just be more straightforward.”

“How more straightforward can we get?”

“Whether it’s the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Master Yoda, Dumbledore, or sothing else, they are the characters designed to uphold justice.”

“That’s right.”

“Maybe we can create a cri scene. No matter who is on duty tonight, there’s a high probability that we can attract their attention.”

“Uhh... have you ever thought that we might attract the police’s attention?”

“We can try our best to find a place with fewer people,” replied Shen Xixi. “We’ll be creating a scene tailor-made for a superhero appearance.”

“...If you are fine with it, then I’m fine with it too,” said Zhang Heng. “But we’d better put on so makeup and change to a different set of clothing to avoid being spotted. We don’t want them to know that we are already here.”

Since they had decided to create the perfect cri scenario, Zhang Heng could only try his best to give the details a little fine-tuning.

“Okay,” Shen Xixi nodded.

...

A drunk woman stumbled along the dark alley late at night. When she walked past a trash can, she was unable to hold it in and started retching her guts for a good half minute. However, she did not get better after vomiting. She was so drunk that she had to sit down beside the trash can and lean against the wall. Her head drooped to the side, and she fell asleep after that.

Her chest was heaving slightly beneath her suspenders, and it looked like her guard was completely down. She even put on a smile, as if she saw the prince charming of her dreams.

For a split second there, she appeared to have forgotten that she lived in a chaotic and dangerous world.

Just like what they planned, the bad guy appeared!

A dark shadow passed by the alley and witnessed this rare scene. Imdiately, he looked around to see if there were people around him. Once he made sure that he was alone, he took out his mobile phone and took a dozen pictures of the girl from various angles.

Seeing that the girl did not respond, he beca bolder. He then decided to move closer to the girl and tapped the girl’s shoulder with his hand.

“Miss, miss. Do you need any help? ”

The girl was still out cold, not knowing what was going on in the real world.

The man’s mind started to co up with so bad ideas. He drew in two deep breaths after that. Perhaps the dark alley had given him the courage he needed, or he found it too challenging to resist the temptation in front of him. In the end, he decided to stretch out his hands, lifted the girl from the ground, and carried her on his shoulders.

Just as he was about to leave the alley with the girl, another figure landed behind him like an oriole. The person raised his hand and shot a ball-like object from his wrist at the villain. To the person’s surprise, the bad guy seed to know that he was behind, and he managed to dodge the sudden attack.

When Zhang Heng saw the white spider silk on the wall, he knew who was here tonight.

“Spider-Man?” Zhang Heng turned around and raised his eyebrows.

Although the other party did not answer Zhang Heng, his distinctive red and blue uniform had confird Zhang Heng’s suspicions.

It was neither the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles nor Master Yoda who had co here tonight.

This new version of Spider-Man was the mascot of the Marvel universe, and the image of the friendly neighborhood Spiderman had gradually beco popular as well. If Zhang Heng were required to choose an opponent from the Marvel universe, Spider-Man would be the last he would choose to go up against.

The reason was simple. Spiderman’s abilities might not be the strongest, but compared to Thor’s and Scarlet Witch’s fancy abilities created by special effects and CGI, it was a lot easier to replicate.

Spiderman’s endurance, reaction, speed, and fighting ability could all be achieved through adjusting the chanical replica, not to ntion that he had the annoying ability to manipulate spider silk.

Shen Xixi began to worry about Zhang Heng. However, her eyes were still closed, and only moved her lips. She then whispered, “What should we do?”

“Continue pretending you’re drunk. Let

test his abilities first.”

Zhang Heng put Shen Xixi down again. After that, he dished his hands in the trash can and took out a Tachi.

The [Ordinary Katana] that made him miserable was still being recast by the blacksmith, so Zhang Heng’s current weapon was an ordinary weapon that he just bought. Spider-Man watched Zhang Heng draw the Tachi from the scabbard. He did not stop him or run away.

Because fear ant nothing in the face of justice!

“Heh, it seems it is going to be an exciting night.” Zhang Heng went into his attack stance. At the sa ti, Spider-Man was already on the move. Without exerting much strength, he leaped onto the wall, touched it gingerly with his foot, and his body sprung high into the air.

He then shot two more Web Balls at Zhang Heng.

Taking into account the stickiness of the Web Balls, Zhang Heng decided to dodge it. When he raised his head again, Spider-Man was about to land a flying kick on him. Imdiately, Zhang Heng struck his Tachi at the Spider-Man. With Spider-Man’s tingling sensation, he could use his spider silk to change trajectory in the air, and the next second appeared behind Zhang Heng again.

Zhang Heng turned around and struck his Tachi at Spider-Man, who used his spider silk to dodge the attack in a split-second.

In the first round of the battle, both sides were equally competent.

However, after only two short moves, Zhang Heng could feel how difficult it was going to be to deal with this opponent.

Spider-Man’s movents were unpredictable. In just one second, he had several positions in the air. Not only did Zhang Heng have to guard against fists and flying kicks that ca out of nowhere, but he also needed to look out for the pesky Web Balls.

Perhaps the only thing that offered him relief was that none of the chanical enemies knew how to speak. It could be a manufacturing defect or intentional.
