63. The little spider beats up the lizard man.
In the early morning, a light drizzle began to fall in Sokovia.
A cold wind carrying the scent of earth blew by, slightly diluting the lingering smell of gunpowder in the ruins.
The sound of rain was so light that it made me want to sleep.
Jarvis piloted the mech on patrol in the rain.
Glug glug~
Ji Yuan took a sip of steaming congee and glanced at the rain outside the door: "Wanda, did you have a nightmare last night?"
Wanda swallowed the porridge in her mouth, took another bite of toast, and said indistinctly, "No, I slept very well last night."
After swallowing the toast in her mouth, she asked again, "Mr. Ji Yuan, why is that?"
Ji Yuan lay back in his chair and smiled. "If love isn't as solid as a rock, what is sorrow? Wanda, when you understand, you'll never have nightmares again."
Wanda's eyes trembled slightly as she looked at Ji Yuan, only to find that he had already closed his eyes, his breathing becoming long and even, accompanied by the sound of the drizzling rain.
Sleep? That's impossible.
Ji Yuan merely sensed a cosmic fluctuation and followed it to see who had come to this universe.
His gaze followed the omnipresent light, traversing thousands of miles, and arrived in New York.
In Manhattan, New York, garbage is everywhere, and the sewers reek of a foul stench.
Two figures dressed in tight-fitting clothes walked close to the dirty wall.
"Spider-Man, are you sure your mentor turned into the Lizard and hid in the sewers?" Daredevil asked, his voice muffled.
Spider-Man said, "Yeah, Daredevil, I shouldn't have given him that formula. After Dr. Connors developed the serum, he used it on himself as a test subject, and as a result, he turned into the Lizard. I saw him go into the sewer with my own eyes."
Daredevil let out a long sigh: "With the lizard's extraordinary senses, wouldn't he be uncomfortable in the sewers?"
My sense of smell is many times stronger than that of a normal human. Entering this sewer was like entering hell. All sorts of smells assaulted my brain, and I was dizzy from the stench.
Spider-Man rubbed his nose: "Lizards are very adaptable; they probably don't care about these smells at all."
"Okay, ugh... this smell is awful, but we have to stop Dr. Connors, he seems to be out of control."
Spider-Man and Daredevil ran quickly through the sewers.
One has radar sensing with an ultra-long range, and the other has spider sensing with an ultra-long range.
But after searching the sewers and almost the entire area, they found no trace of Dr. Connors.
This is unreasonable.
"Spider-Man, this doesn't make sense. He might be able to evade my radar, but he definitely can't evade your spider sense. This is very strange," Daredevil said, stopping in his tracks.
In his previous tests, Spider-Man's spider-sense is a sense independent of the five senses, and it's impossible for it to be blocked just because he's in a sewer.
"Me too... no, he's here." Spider-Man suddenly detected Dr. Connors' location through his spider-sense. "I've found him."
After saying that, he dashed out.
"Wait a minute, something's not right..." Daredevil said, but Spider-Man had already run far away.
Dr. Connors's figure also appeared in his radar, but strangely, it seemed to appear out of thin air, and Daredevil had a bad feeling about it.
But Spider-Man had already charged forward, so Daredevil had no choice but to follow.
Soon, the sounds of fierce fighting came from ahead.
Daredevil did not make any rash moves, but slowly and cautiously approached. He felt that this Dr. Lizard was deliberately seducing them, or rather, deliberately seducing Spider-Man.
After all, his entry into the sewers with Spider-Man was just a coincidence.
"Dr. Connors, wake up!" Spider-Man punched Connors, who had turned into a lizard, sending him flying. The wall behind him shattered into pieces.
The Lizard Man seemed unaffected, quickly getting to his feet. His blood-red vertical pupils were filled with bestial savagery as he swung his fist at Spider-Man.
Spider-Man raised his hand and easily grabbed the thick, scaly arm. With his legs slightly bent and his arm straining, the enormous lizard monster was sent flying and slammed heavily to the ground.
A large crater was smashed into the ground, and concrete flew everywhere.
The lizard man let out a roar unique to reptiles and opened his mouth to bite Spider-Man.
With a loud bang, Spider-Man punched the Lizard Man in the jaw, blood splattering and teeth flying everywhere.
The Lizard Man simply shook his head, and new teeth grew rapidly, pushing out the broken old ones. He then flipped over and pounced on Spider-Man.
Spider-Man leaped back nimbly, dodging the attack while his webs shot off the wall. He pulled back, using the elasticity of the webs to propel himself forward.
"Spider Kick!"
A powerful kick landed on the lizardman's scaly, muscular chest, sending him flying again and leaving two deep footprints in his flesh.
Spider-Man didn't hold back his power too much. He had already fought Dr. Connors once. Connors' healing factor was so strong that he could regenerate severed limbs, so there was no need for him to hold back.
"Doctor, wake up, Doctor..." Spider-Man shook the Lizard Man, who was several times larger than him.
The lizard man blinked, the blood red in his eyes seemed to fade a little, and then he swung his claws at Spider-Man again.
Spider-Man is once again locked in combat with the Lizard, but with the aid of his spider-sense, the battle is one-sided.
Daredevil, hiding in the shadows, observed the two men's every move and any possible changes in the environment.
Suddenly, a strange fluctuation appeared between Spider-Man and the Lizard, and a clear human figure appeared in the radar.
"Spider-Man, watch out!"
Upon hearing Daredevil's voice, Spider-Man instinctively dodged backward, and then nothing happened.
The spider senses were activated to their maximum, ready to guard against any potential attacks.
He then took out a spray bottle and sprayed it on the lizardman's face a few times, and the lizardman immediately fainted.
This is an enhanced version of the dizziness spray; it's said that one application can make an elephant sleep for a week.
Spider-Man leaned against the wall, cautiously scanning his surroundings. Daredevil's sudden warning must mean he had discovered something, but his spider-sense detected nothing.
Daredevil, hidden in the darkness, barely breathing, carefully surveyed Spider-Man's surroundings. He was absolutely certain he hadn't misjudged the situation.
Half an hour passed, and the two remained on high alert, but nothing happened.
The lizard man lying on the ground showed signs of waking up again, and Spider-Man carefully took out his spray, preparing to spray him a few more times.
The instant the spray was pressed, a pale arm reached out from the void and grabbed at Spider-Man, its black nails gleaming coldly as if capable of tearing everything apart.
"Be careful!"
Even faster than the sound was a cane, which pierced the arm with a sharp, piercing whistle.
With a twist of the arm, it easily grasped the cane, completely exposing the figure of its owner.
Spider-Man exclaimed, "It's you!"
