Chapter 15

Peter knows about the "Phoenix". Moreover, he has actually started paying attention to this superhero a long time ago.

Phoenix, the Phoenix, is not very likely to appear in the public eye. Even Avengers and SHIELD seem to be deliberately reducing the number of times they mention her. As a result, we haven't even heard much about her actions, and her appearance is unclear, let alone having fans.

But Peter still had no hesitation and plunged into this cold pit comparable to the Arctic Circle.

Yuna said she met him three years ago, which was true. In fact, Peter remembered the meeting three years ago, but he did not expect that Phoenix could remember his ordinary self at that time.

At that time, he had not yet become Spider-Man, he was just an inconspicuous kid with an unpopular personality.

He clearly remembered that he was bullied by his classmates again that day. With his whole body languid, he was walking sullenly on the streets of New York. He somehow turned into an alley and happened to stumble upon a confrontation between two forces.

And naturally they discovered him immediately.

That was Peter's first encounter with so-called underground forces. In addition to him, there were several children with empty and numb expressions.

He didn't know what was going on, he just instinctively felt danger and wanted to escape, but the group of people had already raised their guns and pointed them at him -

however, the next moment he thought he was about to die, he keenly captured There was a subtle, mechanical sound.

It was like the sound made by the metal joints when he was playing with those little inventions.

——So, the bullet that broke through the air and hit his forehead was easily caught by a hand along with this strange sound.

Then, the fingers of that hand spread open, and the bullet fell to the ground with a clatter, like an iron toy. But her black gloves were made of unknown material, and they were not even damaged at all.

The man who took the bullet for him walked past him unhurriedly towards the criminals in front, every step like stepping on the drumbeat of death. The girl with black hair and blue eyes did not hide her true appearance at all. She wore a choker set with sapphires around her neck. She seemed to be just hanging out and was wearing an ordinary black windbreaker. As she walked, the hem of her clothes lifted up beautifully and neatly. of arc.

She looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old, but after she just showed her hand, no one dared to question her strength.

So... powerful.

And an extremely attractive, almost arrogant yet restrained confidence.

It was the first time for Peter to see such contradictory and dazzling peers.

***

Logically speaking, they should not have any interactions after that time. This matter also involves unnatural forces. For their own safety, most people will not choose to publicize it, and the same goes for Peter.

He buried this matter deep in his heart, and occasionally taking a look at it would give him great spiritual motivation.

Until he gained powers similar to those of a spider, until Uncle Ben died in front of his eyes, until he chose to become Spider-Man.

In his heart, that girl was on par with the superheroes of the Avengers.

He originally knew nothing about her and thought he might never see her again, but after being discovered by Mr. Stark and becoming an Avengers reserve, he accidentally discovered a photo of the girl in the Avengers base. .

In the photo, the girl looks calm and even looks a little cold, but if you look closely, you can see that there is a helpless smile hidden in her eyes. She must be eight or nine years old in the photo. Perhaps because she is the smallest, she is standing in the center, surrounded by Avengers who look very familiar with her.

——This is a group photo.

They seemed like one big family.

Peter's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately thought that she was indeed a superhero, and secretly began the long one-sided process of getting to know the black-haired girl.

The main sources of intelligence are S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and some not-so-secret information. After all, it seems that her existence is not a confidential matter in the first place. The public doesn't know much about it, it's just that she is reluctant.

The more he learned, the more amazed he became.

"Phoenix" has been very strong from the beginning, and she frequently went on difficult missions alone when she was twelve years old, the year she saved him.

And there is never such a thing as "failure" in her mission.

According to an unknown agent, the Phoenix is simply terrifying.

"S.H.I.E.L.D. used to have a lot of undercover agents, you know that, right?" One of the blonde female agents said to Peter - after all, she was also an Avengers reserve, and since there was a bug-level super-strong kid on the team, everyone The acceptance of minors has become much better: "It was with her help that the operation of clearing the undercover agent was so smooth."

The matter of Hydra is not a secret in S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Hydra cannot be underestimated. At that time, there was a small group of core members, who were also the most powerful Hydra undercover agents lurking in SHIELD. They were preparing to slip away through the secret passage they opened when they were entrenched in SHIELD. As a result, just when they thought they had finally escaped and were about to see the light of day again—"

the agent said with a complex expression of vivid schadenfreude and incomparable regret, "—they saw the phoenix standing at the exit of the secret passage, waiting calmly. They fell into a trap."

Just one person created an aura that surrounded all the undercover agents.

Peter was stunned.

However, this is not the end.

Phoenix is a talented player who has grown up rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. After discovering that there was nothing to teach her nearby, she began to apply for assignments frequently, traveling as far away as possible. Every time she came out, she could upgrade a lot. She could not only complete the tasks but also increase her strength and become more powerful. More profound and unfathomable.

Once, a senior member of a transnational crime syndicate who was chased and intercepted by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents but remained calm and calm just got off the plane when he encountered Phoenix standing there quietly waiting for his flight.

According to the oral statement of a prisoner currently imprisoned in a special SHIELD prison, when he looked over at him, he first thought he was a fellow traveler. At the second glance, the dangerous feeling clung to him like a maggot attached to his bones. His body suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

The girl with extremely beautiful blue eyes, wearing a dark-style black windbreaker, looked at him calmly, and slowly, little by little, raised the corners of her lips.

It was as if the world had stopped for a moment, all sounds from the outside world were cut off, his mind went blank for an instant, and the overwhelming viscous pressure almost suffocated him.

His teeth were chattering.

It was obvious that the girl was just standing there doing nothing, even smiling, but he had already felt the fear that penetrated his bones. His knees began to weaken and he could no longer support his body.

He had never experienced this kind of fear even in those murderous perverts who were recognized as extremely dangerous.

When the prisoner recalled this, he still had lingering fears on his face.

"Really, if I were to squat here for the rest of my life, I wouldn't want to see her again."

If faced with that terrifying momentum, her life would be reduced by ten years.

Peter: "..."

The statements given by other prisoners are very similar. The degree of mental damage is almost the same. The biggest difference may be the physical damage.

After all, some prisoners are more aware of current affairs, and some require Phoenix to use some... special methods that are not very just in the eyes of ordinary people.

Later, the saying "I would rather betray the organization than fall into the hands of the Phoenix" spread like a plague, and it couldn't be stopped.

And Hawkeye—that is, the internal forum of villains in a certain region that Agent Barton showed him to his amazement:

[Title: Help! ! What should I do? I seem to be targeted by the Phoenix! ]

[Main Building: I originally thought it would be the Avengers! ! I've done all the preparations! Why is this a madman? This can't be done! ! ]

[Floor 1:...Phoenix? Stop asking for help, there is no hope, just wait to die. ]

[2nd floor: Phoenix? There is no hope, just wait for death. ]

[Floor 3: Phoenix? There is no hope, just wait for death. ]

...

[Floor 511: Phoenix? There is no hope, just wait for death. ]

...

[Floor 516: Huo, there is a forum hidden here. My little bird is really good, you guys have a good eye for it. ]

[Floor 517:? ? ? Damn it, Stark! ]

[——This forum has been banned——]

Barton: "Hahahahahaha!"

Peter: "..."

Peter Parker, as one of the few middle school students who knows the super powerful hero "Phoenix", is still... The people she saved were very motivated, and she even revealed a little bit about the origin of the code name "Phoenix".

——It is said that from the perspective of the villain, this person seems to be invincible and cannot be shaken off no matter how hard he is. As long as he is targeted, he will definitely go to heaven.

Who the hell has ever seen this kind of arresting battle that doesn't stop at the risk of one's own life? !

Every time I thought I had finally gotten rid of her, she would come back with inexplicable postures and inexplicable angles. When she first debuted, she was a ruthless person who could chase down the most vicious terrorist elements for 700 miles with several penetrating wounds. !

And in the end, she was still alive and well, but those who were being chased couldn't hold on and paralyzed from exhaustion first. He always acts alone and then kills a bunch of people.

To sum up, who else is qualified if her code name is not "Phoenix"? After all, she can always treat fatal injuries as minor scratches in an extremely crude way.

The most amazing thing is that SHIELD and other special agent organizations and positive agencies also feel the same way, so this code name that has long been synonymous with Yuna has been retained.

***

Recalling his own experience, Peter felt more and more that Yuna didn't seem like a character who would go to the house of someone she didn't know well for no reason - even though she probably knew that he was a fan of hers. I was very interested in getting to know her from all sides.

Peter's doubts were written directly in his eyes.

...Could this be the character of the Phoenix?

...Shouldn't it?
