"Vigilantes?"
Both Spider-Men were surprised. Gwen thought for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Chief George, being a vigilante is fine, but I can't tell you my identity."
'I'm afraid you'll kill me,' Gwen secretly added in her heart.
Peter also said, "Me neither."
"Mr. Wang has already proposed a solution to this problem."
Chief George said, "You only need to reveal your identity to a public figure you trust, such as Iron Man Tony Stark. He will vouch for you, and unless you commit a crime, he will not reveal your identity to anyone else."
"That's good."
Gwen's eyes lit up. She said, "If that's the case, I agree to be a vigilante."
Peter looked at Gwen in surprise. She agreed so quickly?
Peter didn't know that Gwen had always wanted to ease the relationship between Spider-Woman and Chief George. She didn't want to be thrown into jail by her father one day.
Peter hesitated, scratching his head, and said, "I don't want to be that formal."
Chief George said expressionlessly, "Then let's discuss your destruction of public and private property. This month, you've destroyed over a hundred public and private items, and before that, you smashed a car."
Peter exclaimed, "That car was going to be wrecked anyway! You can't do this, this threat is too despicable!"
"Spider-Man, Iron Man actually already knows your identity. His artificial intelligence Jarvis has been monitoring the entire city."
Gwen advised, "Also, your actions often disrupt police operations. For example, last month, you caught a group of car thieves. Actually, the police had been planning that operation for over a month, hoping to follow the clues to catch the mastermind, but you ruined it."
Peter quickly said, "I didn't know that would happen. I was just doing good deeds."
Gwen said, "I'm not saying you did anything wrong, but if we become vigilantes, we can avoid such incidents and better protect New York."
"Wait a minute, Spider-Woman, how do you know about this?"
Chief George's face darkened slightly. He asked, "This is classified information. Even within the police department, only high-ranking officials and those directly involved know about it."
Gwen immediately became nervous—this information was actually told to her by Chief George when they were arguing about whether Spider-Man was a good person.
Chief George looked at Gwen and pressed, "Did you secretly hack into the police's internal system?"
"I promise it won't happen again."
Gwen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Uh, by the way, your police system is terrible. My friend said she could hack into it with a game console!"
Gwen's voice grew softer and softer, because Chief George's gaze was almost devouring her.
Chief George glared fiercely at Gwen and said, "You two should seriously consider the vigilante matter. New York is becoming more and more dangerous, and to protect New York, we need to cooperate."
"I will seriously consider it."
Peter nodded, while Gwen said, "I agree to be a vigilante, and I will persuade my companion to join as well."
"Very good."
Chief George said, "Don't worry, it's just cooperation. I won't order you around. Also, if you agree to be vigilantes, we will create a foundation in your names to accept donations and sell merchandise. This money will be used to compensate for the damages you cause.
If there's any left over…"
"Donate them to those in need."
The two Spider-Men said in unison. They looked at each other and both smiled.
Although Peter was short on money, he never used his superpowers to earn money; otherwise, he wouldn't be as poor as he was now. He was a true Super Hero.
Chief George couldn't help but nod. They were indeed good kids, and he needed to guide them so they wouldn't go astray.
…
Amidst the chaos, the latter half of the Sky Base disaster officially ended. Although the Agents worked hard, many prisoners still escaped and needed to be pursued. In addition, Brooklyn suffered significant damage.
Someone needed to be held responsible for all of this. S.H.I.E.L.D. unceremoniously pushed John Garrett out as the scapegoat. Garrett received this news in the hospital and immediately gave Nick Fury the middle finger. That bastard, he hadn't changed in decades; his entire being, including his heart, was black.
The public, naturally, was not content with this. Led by Horn TV Station reporter and anti-S.H.I.E.L.D. pioneer Melinda, they openly questioned the government, Congress, and the United Nations: how much has S.H.I.E.L.D. concealed, and how much privacy has it violated?
S.H.I.E.L.D., this secret organization, was completely exposed. They would no longer be able to act as recklessly as before; the public would be watching them.
On the other side, Magneto and Mystique died in battle, and Professor Charles was severely wounded. The Mutant suffered heavy losses. They were filled with confusion, unsure of how to proceed in the future.
"Another income of tens of thousands of souls. Also, Magneto and Mystique have officially become my subordinates. Hey, once Utopia is built, most Mutant will belong to me."
Andrew, the big winner, said with a smile. Once they entered Utopia, they would naturally have to serve him, the Demon King. That went without saying.
The Moon would be the starting point of Andrew's star-sea endeavor.
"The Inhumans on the Moon are a problem. I wonder if they dare to provoke me?"
Andrew thought to himself. The Inhumans' king, Black Bolt, was a super strong individual, but it wasn't a big problem because he definitely couldn't defeat Andrew.
"Next, Thor should be arriving."
Andrew's eyes flashed. He wasn't interested in Thor and Loki, but he was very interested in the Bifrost Bridge and the Destroyer.
…
This morning, Andrew welcomed a long-awaited visitor, Kamar-Taj's senior disciple, Kaecilius.
"Kaecilius, please sit."
Andrew clapped his hand, and Hell's power enveloped the room, sealing everything.
Kaecilius removed his cloak. He first bowed to Andrew, then eagerly asked, "Lord Demon King, what price do I need to pay if I want to obtain eternal life?"
The Sky Base disaster made Kaecilius completely determined. This Hell Demon King was trustworthy.
Andrew poured himself a cup of tea and asked, "Do you only want eternal life?"
Kaecilius did not hide anything: "I also want to resurrect my wife and children, but without their souls, even you, the Demon King, cannot do this."
"Currently, it's indeed impossible, unless Ancient One gives me the Eye of Agamotto."
Andrew said, "Kaecilius, your idea is very unconventional. Even if you become the Sorcerer Supreme in the future, others will not agree to you doing this."
Kaecilius was silent for a moment, then said, "Methods are created by people. After I achieve eternal life, I will eventually figure out a way to save them."
"Perhaps."
Andrew smiled and said, "Let's first talk about the first transaction. I will give you five hundred years of lifespan, and you will give me all the spells you know."
