American Comics: The Law of Strength

Chapter 102: "Prophecy"

Early in the morning, Peter arrived at the airport by private jet, and although the plane was still taxiing on the runway, Peter had already felt the heat of Afghanistan.

Memories of the past flooded back to his mind, and Peter even missed it a little.

But when he set foot on Afghan soil, the blazing sunshine of Afghanistan suddenly burned these memories.

Although the airport is located near Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, the road to the city is unusually bland, desolate.

Sporadic cacti spread mile after mile with dust, connecting one end of the sky to the other, but the lump of compacted earth at the end of the road seemed to be forever that far away.

The scorching weather and long roads were really annoying, not to mention that there were not even a few rentals here, and the sudden inquiry behind him made Peter's head grow.

"So where are we going now?"

Peter turned back helplessly, but found that the Maximov brothers and sisters had changed into robes full of dust, and the huge robe wrapped the bodies of the two people completely, even if they looked closely, it was difficult to identify the original figures and appearance of the two.

And Wanda shrouded her face under the hood, which made her voice seem a little dull, but there was excitement in her pale green eyes, and even the sunlight was attracted by the sparkling eyes.

And Pietro's eyes also flashed with a strange light.

But Peter chose to ignore the eyes of Wanda and Pietro, and said coldly:

"Me? No comment, but the next stop for the two of you should be New York, so hurry back while you still have options! "

But Wanda and Pietro still followed closely behind Peter, and Wanda said in an earnest tone:

"We can help! I speak Pashto and Dari, Uzbek, Balochistan, Turkish also understand some, I can translate for you! I still drive! I have three years of driving experience and I know I can drive you without a driver's license! No matter what you say, I will obediently cooperate! If you don't promise me, I'll kill you!" "

However, seeing Peter indifferently and going farther and farther, Wanda gradually lost patience.

"I can still send your information all over the Internet, well, I can also reveal your information to that little girl named Gwen!"

Seeing that Peter still did not react, Wanda simply walked a few steps quickly and grabbed Peter's cuffs, and said with a bit of pain and firmness:

"We know you're here for Tony Stark, and we have an account to settle with him! I've hadn't wanted to take revenge on him all the time since I was ten years old, but..."

Wanda bit her lip.

"I can't do it."

Exposing her biggest wounds to the fake family made her feel a strong sense of frustration, not to mention asking him for help, and admitting her incompetence was torture.

"I... I beg you... Bring us... Give us a chance for revenge. "

As she said this, Wanda felt her tongue stiffen and almost hit her teeth. But she still squeezed those words out of her mouth.

She looked into Peter's eyes, hoping to see understanding and support, but to her disgust, she only saw a trace of sympathy in Peter's eyes, which was obvious like the sun in a cloudless clear sky.

Wanda resisted the urge to punch her while her brother rested his palm on her shoulder.

Peter, who was glared at angrily by the brother and sister, sighed helplessly, although he knew that Diane would always engage in some inexplicable operations, but this time her arrangement was particularly annoying.

When he saw the Maximov siblings on the plane, he realized that something was wrong, but Diane didn't even give him the option to refuse.

"Peter, you should know that we didn't send them to New York to go to school, and if I want to sponsor students to go to New York, I can pick a few poor students from the Olympiad, and they are here because you think they have some special talents, which is why I took them to the mansion to live with you."

And now they want revenge, they want to fight, and I can't think of any reason to refute them, if you can want one or two, then persuade them to come back.

If you can't do it and don't want them to follow you, you can get rid of them, after all, it is Afghanistan, it must be easy. "

Even Peter could hear Diane's suppressed laughter even through the earpiece, and Peter could even imagine Diane's happy expression.

She probably had expected this scene at that time...

Peter sighed deeply again, and finally looked helplessly at the two brothers and sisters.

"I'm really here for Tony Stark, but I don't want to kill him, or I'll stop you if you plan to kill him, and I'll even kill you if I have to, do you understand?"

Peter, who originally thought that the two would explode because of this, unexpectedly found that the expressions of the two were unusually calm, they were probably mentally prepared, and while nodding slightly, Pierrot assured:

"We will follow your instructions and will never make trouble."

Wanda added:

"We have been waiting for this revenge for nearly a decade, and we can continue to endure it if necessary."

Peter, who had no reason to expel the two, had to silently take out a revolver from his waist and hand it to the two, now Peter's fighting style no longer relies on firearms, and now carrying this revolver is not to be in case, but more symbolic.

"Which of you will use it? I don't think I need to remind you, this is almost half a place outside the law, any accident can happen, you better be mentally prepared, I have my own task in hand, but I will not go out of my way to protect you. "

Both brothers and sisters breathed a sigh of relief, and the two stepped forward almost at the same time, then looked at each other at the same time, and after glancing at each other, it was Wanda who finally took the revolver.

"I'll use it carefully."

Wanda assured while stroking the delicate pattern on the handle of the gun, and then carefully tucked the revolver into her robe.

Peter then handed over a wad of bills and handed them to Wanda.

"You said you could be a translator, so start your work now."

Peter pointed to the rental car shop near the airport.

"Go buy a car, as for our destination... First to Kabul, then we are going to find some ... People from the Ten Rings Gang. "

...

...

"I always felt that his so-called prophecy was conjecture, and although what he said seemed a little organized, if you analyze it carefully, you will find that it is all problems, but everything he said is really coming true."

The hazy voice made Gwen frown, and she buried her head deep in the soft pillow again to isolate the noisy sound, but a sudden sharp pain in her abdomen made Gwen wake up again, and this sudden pain directly woke her up from the warm and comfortable sleep.

"I really can't figure out why Obidia Stein secretly calculated Tony Stark, he not only actually controls the company's operations but also has a very high reputation within the company, even if Tony wants to replace him, it is unlikely, not to mention that Tony Stark is a playboy, although he has a genius mind but is an unobtrusive playboy.

Not only is he not a threat to Obidia Stein, but he is also a goose that lays golden eggs, what disease did Obidia Stein have to do to find mercenaries to secretly calculate Tony Stark?

Even my cousin wouldn't have done such a stupid thing, but I believe this investment will not be at a loss, and he will probably do what he should have done in his 'prophecy' for Obidia Stein.

Not... Wait a minute... She seems to be awake, and I'll talk to you about the details of this investment next..."

After a soft "beep", a soft greeting came overhead.

"Good morning, Sleeping Beauty, I was just about to wake you up with a kiss, but it looks like I can owe this kiss first, how do you feel?"

Gwen vaguely heard Diane's voice, but the voice was a little ethereal, and the groggy Gwen in her head couldn't even tell for a moment whether this voice came from reality or just her own hallucination, but she still muttered and replied:

"It feels like you secretly hit me a few sticks while I was asleep."

However, the actual feeling was much more painful than this, Gwen covered her abdomen, the pain even made her wonder if she had been cut in half from the middle, every cell in her body was trembling, obviously just woke up, but at this moment she felt that she was about to pass out in pain.

And Diane was lazily leaning on the windowsill at this time, even her legs were on the lower edge of the window, and she was still holding a transparent cup full of ice cream and strawberries in her hand, and she looked at Gwen's confused grin with great interest and smiled, and she didn't forget to lick the cold sundae while being happy.

Gwen exhaled slowly and slowly sat up straight, but accidentally pulled his wound, and his face was distorted at once.

Not... The pain was even more painful, Diane's body couldn't help but tremble as she imagined the pain, and then she saw Gwen's azure eyes turn to herself.

Gwen's eyes were beautiful, and Diane rarely complimented other women on their appearance, but she also had to admit that these eyes that occasionally showed a rigid and sharp air were indeed charming.

"I... How long have you been sleeping? "

Gwen's voice was a little hoarse, her face was still covered with sweat, her hair was messily plastered to her forehead, and the whole person looked decadent and lost, but this embarrassed appearance still showed a bit of beauty.

Diane, who originally wanted to answer that you have slept for five years and teased the other party, gave up the idea for no reason, and finally answered honestly:

"A little over two days, I've asked someone to call in sick for you, by the way, several of the students and a teacher are very concerned about your condition, you better call them back later, especially the teacher, who is very persistent about visiting you, and I swear that if he calls again, I will have to talk to him."

Gwen nodded blankly, and then she gently stroked the bandage on her abdomen, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Don't worry, my personal doctor swore that there would be no scars, she didn't even have time to stitch you and your wounds recovered on their own, the bandage was completely wrapped by her to be worthy of her salary, and she also specially left you a lollipop, do you want to eat it now?"

"Yes!"

Diane threw a burgundy candy onto Gwen's bed with some disgust.

Gwen took the candy in her mouth, and then carefully removed the bandage in a circle, sure enough, most of the wounds under the bandages had healed, most of the skin had recovered as white and flawless as a baby, and the horrible wound had scabbed over except for the most serious scratches, but Gwen couldn't understand that the pain just now far exceeded the extent of the wound.

Diane, on the other hand, directly saw through Gwen's doubts and directly opened her mouth to solve her doubts.

"That's the price of casual fights in wet and cold sewers, not only have you not been able to eat ice cream lately, but you will probably have to lie here obediently for the next few days."

Saying that, Diane also flaunted and raised the ice cream in her hand, causing Gwen to retort unpleasantly:

"I've never known what it means to be obedient in my life."

But before she finished speaking, she softened with a bitter face.

"But now I really don't have the capital to fight.

Oh, I do have a pair of fighting eyelids now. "

But Gwen did not lie back on the bed, she took the lollipop, gently bit the candy with her teeth to fix it between her lips and teeth, and her tongue swirled on the round candy, licking gently, the sweet taste spread in her mouth, but the sadness that permeated her heart made the sweet taste a little more bitter.

"But I can't just lie down..."

Gwen threw the removed bandage aside, caressing her lower abdomen while she asked with some sadness:

"Do you know how Dr. Connors is doing? Also How is Felicia now? I just remember Peter coming to help, and then I escaped with Felicia. "

"Felicia is fine now, she was fine that day, now she has run out to search for news, as for Dr. Connors... I only know that he should be recalled by the relevant authorities, and as for his physical condition, the only thing I can confirm is that he is still alive, but there is no guarantee in other aspects. "

Gwen's expression was a little lost, when she fought Dr. Connors, she couldn't help but think back to the night when Peter transformed into a lizardman, although Peter has returned now, but Dr. Connors's appearance makes her a little more worried about Peter's current situation.

Although Peter had assured Uncle Ben, Aunt May, and his father that he had completely returned to normal, his extra abilities still worried Gwen, and he still had the effects of lizardman serum, although he was affected by the same as himself, only on the good side, but Gwen couldn't help but worry about whether Peter would become a lizardman again.

That's right... The kind of inhibitor that Captain America used to use that day against the Lizardmen! That thing seems to be able to change the lizardman back to its original form, maybe she can go...

Gwen fell into deep thought, and Diane, who was sitting on the side, watched Gwen's gradually complex expression, the smile on her face gradually brightened, she gently licked the sundae in her hand while savoring the various expressions on Gwen's face gradually changing, and the sweet and thick milk fragrance made Diane satisfied.

She thought back to the information she had handled during this time, and one interesting script after another spread out in her head...
