"Heroes and villains fight, it's the people who suffer."

CHAPTER 3- "When Heroes And Villains Fight Its The People Who Suffer"

_____

On the scene in front of a Wayne Tech derivative company property...

There is sadly no sign of superman as Live wire is discharging electricity, a frozen stiff pale plastic-faced man in a fancy knit sweeter is on top of a giant rubber duckie while a group of smaller wind-up key rubber ducks spread out under his command is known as the Toy-man, and the last person is a total metal bodied man who just got threw throwing a car into the distance is known as Metallo.

Gotham is full of turmoil on a daily, so what makes these guys so different?

What's so special is that all these guys are almost exclusively Metropolis famous villains and we are standing in the heart of Gotham City as they cause chaos!

.

.

.

Metallo finished throwing the latest car into the crowd and In conjunction, Livewire would throw blast bolts of electricity at their fuel tanks igniting them into flames, then in the air, before they fall into a crowd of police and spectators they started exploding.

The toy man on the giant rubber duckie clapped his hands in excitement, as his smaller rubber duckies with wind-up keys on their backs; wobbled into the crowds quacking and then exploding one by one adding to the turmoil as walking toy grenades.

Despite the police response, the scene was becoming a turbulent one-sided massacre.

Suddenly!

A hopeful exclamation came from the crowd that announced the arrival of the good guys and brought Markov out of his dazed state watching in the distance.

.

Looking at these named heroes approaching the named villains for battle, I watched on carefree as a bystander, as I'm in no hurry to intervene from the start.

No cap, Wolverine lost a lot of fights during his active time in his life.

If he had a mixed martial art fight career, his professional win-and-lost record is like 61-39 and that's even with those metal bones enhancements and years of fighting instincts.

So as I don't have near-indestructible metal bones as defenses, or Sharp metal Bone claws as weapons, I would never put much stock in just my enhanced healing powers and parkour mastery after attaining them.

After all to heal you must get hurt first, and I'm not willing to fight just with my heightened senses and flexibly resilient body to enter the battle with a blue chick that's throwing electricity around like she is a female Zeus!

So me as the rookie pugilist trying to win a fight against 3 known supervillains single handily by myself is ludicrous no matter how much I want to jump into the arena for rewards.

Looking at the smorgasbord of sign-in targets over there, be it, villains or heroes, I had struggled hard internally on what were my many options to choose from.

The business side of me wants to make the most logical choice to perform a 'location sign-in'.

  But in my heart, I wanted to just be spontaneously wild and approach them, choose the strongest amongst them to touch for marvel world's rewards under some kind of guise, and then flee madly.

I can only sigh and I Put the Kibosh on it quickly. That's short-term thinking.

I can't think like that.

For one reason I half to continue to live on in this D.C. universe another is because I can't continue to sign in wildly to the individuals with my current strength without them questioning my motive for showing up on various crime scenes and touching anyone of them out of the blue, right?

 These heroes and villains are all very astute people, they will always remember their first weird and odd interaction with me, I didn't want to be remembered and create contradictions or enemies for silly strategies, I want them to forget any interaction with me at all if I can help it.

After calming down, the best target now, is to sign in to the battlefield site 'Location' itself for a guarantee of a solid reward.

Thinking this I access the blue screen in my mind, while getting as close to the farthest periphery of the skirmish that is allowed by the system for check-in, and:

[Do you wish to sign-in?]

"Yes, perform a D.C. 'Location' Sign-in." I replied in my mind while avoiding the crazy quarrel taking place on the battlefield in front of my eyes.

[Sign-in to location...Villains Vs Heroes Battle Field Over stolen Wayne Tech Vaulted Kryptonite.]

[Marvel Sign-in Reward is:...

White Tiger Amulets Of Power. Complete Collection Of Three.]

I raised an eyebrow at the Marvel World's sign-in reward and read its effects.

[White Tiger Amulet's abilities are:

Enhanced strength, Enhanced speed, Enhanced Stamina, Enhance agility, Enhanced dexterity, reflexes, reaction time, coordination, balance, partial Camouflage, targeted Acceleration Recuperation, Heightened Animal-like Senses, Enhanced Durability, and gave the user access to the experience and abilities of a master martial artist. ]

Yes, this is exactly what I needed right now.

I didn't have any natural structural offense before, just a healing factor, parkour street acrobatics, a conspicuous round shield, and an old ww2 hydra Lazor gun to protect against metahumans.

But now with the 3 White tiger amulets together, it gives me the white tiger physique buffs and the white suits come with razor-sharp claws that are welcome as well.

Looking at the vast collection of property damage and crumbled buildings before me, I frowned for the nearby business owners in my heart, while thinking to myself that these guys really don't give a damn about anything but their respective missions and objectives.

After personally witnessing the fierce battle from start to nearly finish, I'm still reluctant to join this quagmire in action with my newly attained untested power.

Maybe both reverence for their identity as DC entities and fear of their expertise and fighting power is what stops me from recklessly engaging in the dispute.

Fear is one of the most primal emotions and I respect it as a rebirth.

It's Essential emotion to function normally as lets us know when to have a flight or fight response.

When Heroes and villains fight and it's the people who suffer and I don't like to suffer a loss at all if possible, so let's think this through clearly first from the outside looking in from all angles available to me.

The question is do I push my luck and perform a new-day sign-in or retreat to explore my abilities and not let abnormalities about me be discovered by some insightful detectives even though I'm wearing a baseball cap, hoodie, and bicycle dust mask in a disguise.

I've already got my daily sign-in before midnight and the system reset is coming after the stroke of midnight again.

The field has been checked in already, if I do a double check-in at the same place after midnight, I know from my previous sign-in experiences that the reward will be most likely trash items.

So how can I get access to the people or unique items of those who are fighting right now; to perform a new sign-in effectively?

After pondering in deep thought as watched the soon-to-be-concluded battle in front of me, my eyes suddenly lit up with inspiration as look at my newest system reward item.

So in the end I guess I chose to...
