Chapter 199: Speedsters are Best at Arriving Late
Yang Le and the others didn't wait too long. After about twenty minutes, Main Universe Peter found the place they had agreed upon.
"Where's that Metal Man?"
Peter asked the question as soon as he landed.
"That's me," Yang Le stood up.
"That state is one of my abilities."
Peter nodded to show he understood, and then asked, "Can you tell me about that Multiverse Crisis now?"
"Of course."
Yang Le nodded, then walked to Peter's side. Peter also noticed Gwen beside Yang Le, but Main Universe Peter was, after all, an old hand who had experienced many big events, so this level of situation couldn't scare him.
"One of the instigators of this business is your old acquaintance, Morlun."
Then Yang Le explained the Spider-Verse Big Event to Main Universe Peter in detail.
"In other words, we now need to find Kaine Parker, who represents 'The Other', and Cindy Moon, who represents 'The Bride'. They are the key to this business."
"Cindy is still in New York." Main Universe Peter, as expected of Spider-Man who has experienced many storms, had a very strong ability to accept things, seamlessly connecting and communicating with Yang Le.
"As for Kaine..." Peter touched his chin, and then said uncertainly.
"To be honest, I'm not really sure where he is. He joined the New Warriors. I remember their base is in the Wanda Mountains in Eastern Europe."
"Can you contact him?" Yang Le asked.
"If I guess correctly, the next goal of the Inheritors will be the two of them. Cindy is in New York, which is okay, but Kaine is too far away. We can't know what's happening there immediately."
"I can try to contact them," Peter said.
"Time is of the essence," Yang Le raised the Omnitrix.
"I think it's best if I go take a look first."
"That place is thousands of kilometers away from here," Peter widened his eyes.
"No matter what transportation tool you use, it will take several hours."
"I only need a second." Yang Le found the alien hero he wanted. A white light flashed, and Fasttrack appeared again.
"Let's split up." Yang Le, in Fasttrack state, spoke very quickly, making Peter a little unaccustomed for a moment.
"You go find Cindy Moon, I'll be responsible for Kaine, and we'll meet here in the end."
"You alone?"
Peter was a little worried. Although he didn't understand the other Inheritors, he knew Morlun's strength. That was indeed a very difficult opponent, who had pushed him to the brink several times, so he couldn't help but worry about Yang Le acting alone.
"Don't worry," Gwen looked a little dissatisfied, but still explained to Peter.
"He's the strongest among us, and also at running away."
"I would be touched if you didn't add the last sentence," Yang Le smiled helplessly, and then disappeared.
"Alright, it's time for us to get to work too," Gwen stretched.
"Otherwise, we'll be outdone by someone."
"Looks like you're still competing with that 'someone'," George teased with a smile.
"Making up doesn't mean I'm going to admit defeat," Gwen put on her mask and took the lead in shooting web.
Not mentioning Gwen's large troops, Yang Le had already arrived at the Wanda Mountains in Eastern Europe, but as soon as he arrived, Yang Le felt annoyed in his heart, of course not because of the freezing cold temperature.
The dazzling portal at the mountainside seemed to be telling Yang Le, "You're late again."
"I'm already used to it." As soon as the sound came out, Yang Le had disappeared. Surpassing the speed of sound, he left his own words behind him.
In an instant, Yang Le had arrived at the entrance of the New Warriors base. Although this entrance looked more like a blasted opening, it didn't prevent Yang Le from using it. This place should have originally been an intact wall.
Yang Le did not expose himself, but maintained super speed all the time, sneaking into the interior of the base. There were many fallen superheroes on the way, most of whom were marginal characters in comics. Non-comic fans might not even be able to name them.
Some were dead, but there were still some alive. Yang Le put the living ones together and continued to go deeper. He still had more important business to do now, so let these superhuman wait for a while.
Reaching the depths of the base, Yang Le finally heard movement. He hid in the dark and found a well-known hero - Nova - lying not far away.
And the instigators of all this were The Inheritors, Verna and Daemos. They were standing together, watching Verna's slaves besieging a Spider-Man wearing a red and black battle suit.
This Spider-Man was Peter Parker's clone, said to be comprehensively stronger than the original body Peter, Kaine Parker.
However, this stronger Spider was also a bit stretched facing the siege of multiple supervillains.
Rhino, Kraven the Hunter, Hammerhead, Tombstone. It has to be said that Verna had some bad taste. The slaves she chose were all classic Spider-Man villains.
"I remember Father only asked me to capture The Other, right, brother?" Verna put her hands on her lower abdomen and chatted with Daemos beside her. She was expressionless, as if she were watching the melee in front of her as a performance.
"Father didn't say I couldn't come to Earth-616," Daemos touched the scratch on his face, which was left by Nova just now.
"Will Morlun brother be angry?" Verna asked.
"If it weren't for Father, I wouldn't dare to come to this universe. Morlun brother would definitely be furious if he knew."
"He's a fart!" Daemos gritted his teeth, not knowing whether he was talking about their father or Morlun.
"Why should I care about his idea?"
Verna stopped talking when she saw this. Coincidentally, the melee in front of her was about to have a result.
Two fists are no match for four hands, not to mention there were four enemies, eight hands. Kaine finally fell in this siege.
Rhino put Kaine, covered in wounds, at Verna's underfoot, and then stood respectfully aside with the other four, waiting for their master's next command.
"This is the legendary The Other?" Verna bent down, wanting to carefully observe this special Spider-Man.
"You... are... who!" Kaine opened his opening with difficulty. Even now, he didn't know who had attacked them.
"Your predator," Verna slightly parted her red lips.
"Wha...t?" Kaine didn't react for a moment, after all, it sounded too absurd.
"Your stupidity makes me feel cute," Verna chuckled. "If it weren't necessary to sacrifice you, I would really want to enjoy you alone."
"S...acrifice?" Kaine struggled, trying to get up.
"You madmen!"
Kaine had just supported his body to stand up when Verna stepped down, and the thin heel of her high heel fiercely pierced into Kaine's flesh.
