[Superman] Chapter 12: Red Cloaked Figure
🕑 Added 2024-01-10 06:26:19 +0000 UTC"How is this possible? Is this guy even human?"
At this moment, not only were the people on the ground shocked by the scene happening in the sky.
The people in the other helicopters were experiencing this horrifying scene most directly.
"This guy is a devil!"
Anyone seeing a human use his bare body to pierce through an armed helicopter, completely tearing the entire aircraft apart, would probably be unable to stay calm.
If you could keep calm, then he's charging at you now!
"No, he's charging at us! Reduce altitude quickly!"
At this moment, the pilot of the other targeted helicopter was filled with fear as he watched the "Devil", who had already destroyed a helicopter, now rushing towards him.
He frantically manipulated the helicopter to reduce altitude, trying to evade that madman rushing at him.
"Phew that was close!"
The intense fear seemed to stimulate extraordinary piloting skill in him. As the helicopter rapidly lost altitude, it also narrowly dodged the pouncing Peter with an extremely difficult-to-control maneuver.
However...
Swooping over it, Peter suddenly shot two webs at the helicopter below him.
With the webs' help, Peter instantly changed the disadvantage of being unable to maneuver while jumping.
The next moment, utilizing the web's pulling force, Peter fiercely kicked at the helicopter.
Clang Clang Clang…
The helicopter rotors spinning hundreds of revolutions per minute, and their impact force granted by the high speeds could directly shred any regular flesh they encountered.
Yet now, when the helicopter rotors struck Peter's body, it was as if an iron rod had been inserted into plastic fan blades.
Countless rotor blades became warped, even breaking. The helicopter rotors were forcibly halted by Peter in that instant.
The entire aircraft also completely lost control in that moment, plunging down rapidly.
Tatatat...
Just when Peter, who was standing above the helicopter, was ready to clench his fist and completely destroy this helicopter.
At some point, a Helicopter had already arrived behind him, and the four 12.7mm machine guns on the helicopter did not hesitate to spew out intense tongues of fire.
The bullets of the armed helicopter were enough to forcefully tear apart an armored vehicle, but at this moment, when they hit Peter's body, apart from a dazzling spark, there was only a crunching sound of metal colliding.
Faced with the machine gun fire, Peter neither dodged nor evaded.
His formidable steel body granted him a godlike physique.
Bullets hitting him were like mosquito bites.
"Humph."
A cold laugh in his heart, Peter directly snapped off a still intact rotor blade from the helicopter below his feet.
Then grabbing one end of the blade, he hurled it out like a boomerang.
Swish...
Tremendous strength endowed the blade with astonishing might and speed.
"Chief, dodge quick!"
The people sitting in this helicopter were precisely Chief George and one of his subordinates.
When Peter snapped the blade off, the pilot had already sensed trouble. He turned the aircraft early, wanting to evade the rotating blade's attack.
Yet he still ultimately failed to fully dodge it.
The rapidly rotating blades had truly turned into sharp blades at this moment.
The hurtling rotor blade precisely sliced into the aircraft's tail, directly severing the cockpit and cabin from the rear fuselage.
An entire intact helicopter, rotors included, was instantly bisected.
Luckily the cabin with people was not struck, and everyone inside was completely unharmed.
Unfortunately, with the loss of the rotors and tail, the aircraft no longer had any power and could only watch as it slowly fell downwards.
【Congratulations Host, The Mission has been Completed. Rewards are being issued...】
"Hmm? What's this... The mission is finally complete?"
While he was about to go and destroy a few other helicopters, Peter suddenly heard the notification sound of mission completion.
Almost the instant the mission was completed, he felt an extremely peculiar sensation spreading through his body.
"Is this the reward for randomly awakening an ability after the mission is complete?"
The abnormal feeling in his body not only didn't make Peter worried in the slightest. Instead, it made him extremely excited.
Every Superman ability was extremely powerful. No matter which one was awakened from the reward, it was a steady profit for him.
"But since the mission is already complete, it's also time to leave."
At this point, Peter's goal of completing the mission had been achieved, so without hesitation, he prepared to leave and head to a safe place to awaken his abilities.
Thinking so, Peter standing over the helicopter did not hesitate at all. His legs instantly exerted strength, his whole body shooting upwards like a rocket, charging straight into the distant darkness.
The extremely fast speed made him disappear almost in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, the system notification also sounded in Peter's ear once again.
【Reward Issued. Congratulations Host for Obtaining 100 Points. The Randomly Awakened Special Ability is...】
…
And with Peter's departure, the situation at the scene still did not end.
Because before leaving, Peter's actions in less than a dozen seconds had led to 3 armed helicopters being completely destroyed.
At this moment the wreckage of the three helicopters was still plunging from the air.
There were still several survivors within wishing for nothing more than death to descend quickly in utmost horror.
"Goodbye, Mom. Hope my death benefits will let you live more comfortably the rest of your life."
Falling from over a hundred meters high, they had almost no chance of survival. And parachutes were practically useless from this height.
Just when they were experiencing the final seconds before death, countless thoughts of loved ones surging forth, they were suddenly interrupted by the excited cheers erupting from below.
"Oye, Great. She did it!"
"Great job, Spider-Woman!"
"Unbelievable, truly unbelievable!"
And just seconds ago, the first destroyed helicopter's wreckage, with two survivors inside, was about to smash into the ground.
Just when everyone thought tragedy was inevitable, a silvery white web line descended from the sky.
A graceful and beautiful figure emerged from the darkness as if an angel from heaven, successfully rescuing the survivors from the wreckage.
Afterwards, she also rescued the survivors from the falling second helicopter safe and sound.
It was this once that all the officers witnessing everything on the ground couldn't help sincerely cheering for her from their hearts.
At this moment, in the hearts of all the police officers, the figure wearing the broken spider suit was no longer a criminal who created chaos.
Rather, it was a hero who saved people in times of danger!
"My dear Gwen and Helen, very sorry I can't apologize to you in person in my last moments of life..."
With the aircraft only dozens of meters from the ground, George Stacy could only express regret in his heart to his wife and daughter.
Boom!
Suddenly, a sound interrupted George's thoughts.
He suddenly opened his eyes to see a familiar figure.
It was precisely the Spider-Woman he had racked his brains to capture, who had for some reason appeared in the cockpit right before it would have crashed.
"Stop! Don't move! Or I'll shoot!"
Almost without any hesitation, Chief George took out his gun, pointing it at the figure before him.
Yet that figure seemed to simply not hear his warning at all.
She directly smashed the windows on both sides of the cockpit. Then shot several web lines towards the adjacent high-rises.
Her entire body then pushed off the cockpit roof in an inverted stance.
In an instant, the rapidly falling cockpit was halted by tremendous strength. And the falling speed was also reduced.
Until there was less than a dozen meters left til the ground, it finally completely stopped.
Inside the cockpit, although the sudden halt in the middle of the fall made the few people unsteady on their feet.
Yet from beginning to end Chief George never lowered the gun in his hand, its muzzle fixed right on Spider-Woman exerting herself trying to save them.
"Quick, get out of here! I can't keep this up for long."
Until the cockpit finally stabilized, Gwen whose tiger mouths were oozing blood from clutching the web lines finally anxiously spoke up.
The other officers below had already found some soft material and laid it under the cockpit.
"You guys get down first."
"Chief, what about you then?"
As everyone in the cockpit successfully got rescued by landing below, Chief George however didn't seem to want to just leave like this.
"Today I'm definitely going to take a look at just what kind of face lies hidden under this mask."
Then, George slowly approached Gwen who couldn't make other moves. And prepared to uncover her mask.
Yet, right before he could lift off Spider-Woman's mask before him, he suddenly halted.
"Hey, you guys seem to need help!"
Right when George was somewhat hesitating, a voice suddenly came from nearby.
At the same time, Gwen also felt as if the cockpit's weight suddenly vanished. She quickly did a backflip landing to dodge George's hand.
In the next moment, both of them simultaneously looked in the direction where the voice came from. Only to see a guy wearing a red cloak, floating outside the cabin, easily lifting the cabin that Gwen could only prevent from falling with her full strength with only one hand.
