Chapter 300. Fantastic Four (Part2)

"Where are your ears?"

Inside the police tent, Johnny curiously glanced at Ben, who was sitting across from him with a silent expression, showing strong curiosity about his strange appearance. Seeing his bald head, he couldn't help but ask in a casual tone.

After Reed's comfort and assurance, Ben, who had finally emerged from the shadow of heartbreak, felt annoyed when he heard Johnny teasing him in such a casual tone. He couldn't help but glare at the other party, and if it weren't for his incredible strength at the moment, he would have punched him.

Watching as the Thing ignored him, Johnny raised his eyebrows and was about to speak up and provoke him even more.

Outside the makeshift tent, a man in a firefighter uniform, the Fire Chief in charge, came over and said, "Aren't you guys going out? The people who were rescued... as well as the news reporters from the television station, all want to talk to you..."

Although to be honest, everything that happened on the Brooklyn Bridge was actually caused by Ben, at least the four of them didn't want to make the situation worse.

In response to the Chief's words, Reed instinctively frowned and refused, "Sorry, we're not going public with this. We are scientists, not superheroes..."

Although they had superhuman powers, fundamentally, Reed still felt like a researcher. As he had previously said, saving the world was something that should be left to the Avengers. He just wanted to do his research quietly.

"It's too late, son!" The Chief interrupted Reed's refusal with one sentence and pointed to the television inside the tent, "Look! See that? That's what their calling you,' the Fantastic Four."

"When a New York Fire Department's ladder truck became part of the tragedy... but the rescue itself was not the story... One of the four people who had superpowers similar to the Avengers stretched to an amazing length... Another one has an entire body that's..."

In a dimly lit room, Victor's face was a bit pale as he watched the news report about Reed and the others on the TV screen. He looked down at his fingers, and in the next instant, a faint electric current was generated from them.

It appears that the shield didn't block the radiation from the cosmic storm, and Victor, along with Reed's party, developed a mutation.

.....

The emergence of the new superheroes, Fantastic Four, had become the latest topic in New York in recent days. However, on the other side, the original superheroes were also protecting the city in their own way.

New York, mid-air.

"Mr. Thief, even if I used to be your fan, you really should put that thing down and surrender."

Spider-Man swung between the high-rise buildings of New York with his web and spoke to the white figure flying on the glider not too far away.

"Otherwise, I'll have to be rude."

Controlling the glider to turn aside and avoid the high-rise in front of him, Phantom Thief Kid looked at Spider-Man beside him. His mouth curled, and there was no criminal aura on his face, "Why are you always chasing after me? I don't think I've stolen anything from you, have I?"

"But Mr. Thief, you stole someone else's property. That's a crime, that's a bad thing. Bad people should be punished."

Raising his eyebrows while his top hat covered his face, Phantom Thief looked at Peter with some interest and asked, "How do you plan to punish me?"

"I don't know yet."

Hearing Phantom Thief's question, Peter scratched his head, "But I'll probably send you to jail for stealing. After all, theft is a crime."

"Do you have the confidence to catch me?"

Listening to Spider-Man's confident response to his words, Phantom Thief couldn't help but smile and ask.

"Of course."

Spider-Man didn't show any modesty in response, "After all, I'm not the police. Mr. Thief, don't think you can easily escape me." Facing Phantom Thief Kid, who had been active in New York before Spider-Man acquired his abilities, Peter showed a cautious attitude.

"So, you're underestimating me."

Controlling his glider, Phantom Thief turned and maneuvered between high-rise buildings with a calm expression.

Although he was posing as Phantom Thief Kid, it was apparent that the current clone was no longer the same thief as before, and Peter's words didn't pose too much of a threat to him.

"I not underestimating you, Mr. Thief."

Using the wall of a high-rise building as a springboard, Spider-Man swung his web and blocked the path in front of the thief, "In fact, I quite like you, Mr. Thief. Even when designing my combat suit, I once referred to your outfit and wondered if I should add a cape like yours."

As he spoke, Spider-Man's hands didn't pause for a moment. He pressed a button on his palm, and in the next second, a specially made web bomb shot out of the wrist-mounted web shooter toward the thief.

Dodging the web bomb with a slight downward motion of his left hand, the thief looked at Spider-Man in front of him and faintly smiled. "Thanks' for the praise. In that case, I'll give you a little gift."

"A gift?"

Peter was confused by the thief's reaction.

Despite the fact that he was pursuing the thief, the thief was giving him a gift?

"Then."

However, before he could think too much, in the next moment, Spider-Man saw Phantom Thief Kid flying on his glider and suddenly pulling out something from inside his jacket, throwing it towards him and shouting loudly.

Hearing the thief's shout, Peter instinctively raised his hand to catch the object thrown by the other party. Feeling the hard texture in his fingers, Spider-Man's expression under the mask changed. He thought it was a bomb and was about to let it go. But with a slight cracking sound in the next moment, the object in his hand suddenly split into two halves.
