Poof!"
Su Zhan swung his right hand, and the mechanical tentacles were cut off in response.
The light wave instantly changed direction, blasting a large pit into the ground before losing its energy.
"Next life, remember, if you want to deal with these Super Heroes, don't do it in front of me!"
Su Zhan said coldly, raising his two swords from both sides.
The moment the two swords crossed.
A head suddenly flew up and then rolled to the ground.
Silence… absolute silence.
It was as if the World had been frozen, and the previous cheers and shouts had vanished.
The two swords disappeared, and Su Zhan looked down at his clothes.
The Aether Battle Suit was truly good; not a single drop of blood had stained it.
"Are you done drinking? If you're done, let's go!"
Turning around and walking back to the cafe, Su Zhan asked Pepper.
Pepper hadn't even touched her coffee.
Hearing Su Zhan's question, she instinctively nodded.
Su Zhan reached out and put his arm around Pepper, then directly flew away.
All that remained were Dr. Octopus's discarded mechanical arms, his body separated from his head, and of course… Spider-Man, who was still unconscious nearby.
After a long, long time, someone finally spoke softly.
"So… so scary, did you see it? He looked so terrifying just now!
With a swing of his two swords, Dr. Octopus's head just flew off with a whoosh."
"What's there to be afraid of? This is Chinese kung fu; this is cool!"
"Exactly, he killed Dr. Octopus, a Super Criminal.
Moreover, he also saved Spider-Man.
If it weren't for him, Spider-Man would definitely have died.
If you ask me, someone like him is a true Super Hero.
Criminals like Dr. Octopus should be completely killed."
Soon… the people around began to discuss, and the fear and shock gradually faded.
Although they still didn't know who Su Zhan was, they had firmly remembered his appearance.
"Are you scared?"
On the way back to the Base, Su Zhan looked at the silent Pepper and asked in a low voice.
Pepper nodded: "A little… a little."
"Why? You should know he's a bad guy, and besides, I wouldn't hurt you!" Su Zhan asked softly.
Pepper shook her head: "I know, it's not because of that.
It's just… it's just a bit shocking.
It's not like I haven't seen dead people, it's just… your method had too strong a visual impact, so I couldn't help but feel a little scared.
I'm much better now!"
"That's good.
I wouldn't want him to affect your impression of me!" Su Zhan said with a light chuckle.
Killing Dr. Octopus didn't burden Su Zhan at all.
He had no super Ability and was a villain, so what if he died?
It allowed the public to know about him and also served as a display of power, letting them know that he was no soft-hearted saint!
However, speaking of it, Dr. Octopus died quite unjustly.
If it weren't for the coincidence of him running into him and Pepper being by his side, Su Zhan wouldn't have bothered to kill him.
When they returned to the Base, Pepper had already returned to normal and turned to find Blink to arrange for the workers to leave, as Damage Control would soon take over.
As for Su Zhan, he received a phone call.
Chapter 0099: Subsequent Impact
S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury.
Looking at the number on the phone, Su Zhan was truly annoyed.
Every time he did something, S.H.I.E.L.D. would come knocking.
Every time he did something, S.H.I.E.L.D. would come knocking.
Damn it… are you that idle? Staring at me every day?
Answering the phone, Su Zhan said in an unfriendly tone: "You better be calling to give me a bonus, otherwise just hang up!"
"There's no bonus, I just wanted to thank you for saving Spider-Man…" Nick Fury was momentarily stunned by Su Zhan's tone, then he spoke.
"Verbal thanks are enough, and besides… who said I did it for him?
It's good enough that I didn't help clean him up." Su Zhan said irritably, then impatiently added: "Nothing else, right? If not, I'm hanging up."
"Wait…"
Nick Fury quickly shouted, but unfortunately, only a busy signal came from the phone.
"This guy!"
Nick Fury shouted indignantly.
No one had ever dared to hang up on him like that before.
He contacted Su Zhan partly to thank him for saving Spider-Man, and partly to remind him not to be so high-profile and flamboyant.
Slaughtering Dr. Octopus in the street might have been satisfying, and some people agreed, but more ordinary citizens would still be scared, as it was too bloody and too shocking.
Moreover, due to U.S. law, the public was accustomed to criminals being arrested and jailed; such swift and decisive killings were rare, especially when victory was assured!
But now it seemed he probably couldn't persuade Su Zhan; the guy simply wouldn't give him any face!
The workers on the island had all been sent away by Blink.
Of course, their wages for this period were paid in full, and even extra was given.
So, these workers were all very grateful, and after they were sent off, the island instantly became much quieter.
Su Zhan called everyone to the spaceship's conference room.
Blink, Marrow, Chen Haoran, Pepper, and a Dark Elf who served as a pilot.
There were still too few people!
Su Zhan sighed to himself, then announced: "Damage Control will soon take over the construction here.
It's said they can complete it in just one month.
So, for this month, I plan to go to S.H.I.E.L.D.
Blink, Pepper, I'll have to trouble you two to keep an eye on the construction progress.
As for Haoran and Marrow, you two stay on the ship and try to improve your strength during this time.
It won't be long… before you'll have a chance to show what you can do!"
"Yes!"
No one else had any objections to Su Zhan's arrangements.
Pepper slightly opened her mouth as if to say something, but ultimately didn't speak.
Su Zhan, of course, saw Pepper's reaction but pretended not to notice.
Pepper had stayed before out of gratitude, and she had made it very clear that she was staying to help with the Base's construction.
Once the construction was successful, Pepper would probably leave.
He had hinted earlier by saying what would happen if she left after he got used to her presence, but Pepper hadn't responded.
So Su Zhan had somewhat forcefully assigned her tasks.
Anyway, the Base wasn't built yet, and besides, she was the one who contacted this company, so she definitely had to stay here and follow up!
As for after the Base was built, he would think of other ways to keep Pepper.
"Master, I detect someone approaching here!"
The Dark Elf suddenly whispered.
"Oh? Can you see who it is?"
Su Zhan asked, and the Dark Elf quickly operated the controls.
A moment later, the screen displayed an image.
A speedboat was rapidly approaching.
Seeing the person on the speedboat, Su Zhan was a bit surprised.
He slightly raised the corner of his mouth, knowing why he had suddenly come.
"From now on, call me BOSS, like them."
Su Zhan said to the Dark Elf.
The Dark Elf was ecstatic, nodding repeatedly.
