The Savior of American Comics? I'm the Subspace Evil God!

Chapter 106 Chapter 128 Chapter 129 Spider-Gwen's Week (Part )
Rumbling--

Suddenly, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.

Gwen Stacy was extremely depressed. She stood alone in front of her father's tombstone in a daze, not noticing that the rain had soaked her clothes.

It was not until a sudden loud thunderclap that she came back to her senses as if awakened from a dream. Then she moved her feet with difficulty and staggered towards home.

"Life is unpredictable, and death is hard to predict..."

Suddenly, a silver-haired old man in a suit and tie appeared from nowhere. He was well-dressed and looked like an old British gentleman.

The other party very considerately placed the umbrella over Gwen's head and said with a smile:

"Child, I just passed by here and accidentally noticed the strong desire deep in your heart."

"If I could find a way for you to meet your father's spirit and say your final goodbye, would you be willing to sign a contract with me and give me your soul for safekeeping after your death?"

While talking.

The old man had already taken out a refined parchment scroll from his arms and shook it towards Gwen, indicating that this was the contract he was talking about.

But the latter obviously did not believe such crazy talk and continued walking forward without raising his head.

"It seems the time is not right..."

The old man sighed inwardly, then retracted the scroll, smiled, handed over the umbrella in his hand, and said with concern:
"Then at least accept this umbrella. It's a kind gift from an elder!"

"No, you should keep it for yourself."

Gwen refused expressionlessly, "Anyway, I won't get sick even if I get caught in the rain."

"Oh, business is getting harder and harder these days. Young people these days are so wary..."

The old man looked in the direction where Gwen disappeared, took out his phone to check the time, and shook his head helplessly: "I really miss the days before the Internet."

"No matter where I go, I run into a lot of brainless idiots. They're always fooled... It seems the good times are really over."

Then the old man raised his hand and the umbrella in his hand turned into an exquisite sheepskin scroll.

Just now, as long as Gwen took the umbrella, it meant that she had agreed to the terms of the contract to sell her soul.

In this way, this old man... no, or should I call him [Lord of Hell] Mephisto, will be able to harvest a high-quality human soul.

A high-quality soul can have a far greater effect than a thousand ordinary souls combined.

Whether it is used to create high-level hell demons or as a scarce currency to trade with other [Hell Lords], it is extremely useful!
However, a momentary failure was nothing to Mephisto.

After all, so many people have rejected him over the years.

In the end, she was deceived... No, she was moved by his sincerity (cunning) and honesty (strategy) and signed the contract on her own initiative!
A good meal is not afraid of being late.

Gwen Stacy, don't worry, we will meet again soon.

Your soul will never escape from my palm.

But it seems that I have to go back to hell and find two lecturers who have worked in MLM to make up for the lessons.

Otherwise, you will really fall behind the times!
…………

……

Gwen walked back home in the drizzle.

Holding my father's photo, I sat at the head of the bed and cried silently.

Gwen actually has no memories of her mother.

I can hardly even remember her name.

Because the other party died shortly after she was born.

From then on, Gwen's father acted as both a father and a mother, doing his best to give her a complete and warm childhood...

But death seems to always linger around Gwen, and once again shatters her happy life into pieces!
"Damn it, this isn't supposed to happen..."

Gwen covered her face, letting the tears drip from her fingertips, and said with a choked voice:

"If I had secretly followed my father to the crime scene that night like I did before, such an accident would never have happened."

A few months ago, Gwen was accidentally bitten by a spider on the university campus and gained the same super powers as a spider.

Not only does it possess far superior strength, speed, endurance, defense, and reaction abilities than ordinary people.

It can also cling to various buildings like an insect and move quickly on those vertical surfaces.

So after becoming familiar with these abilities.

Gwen quietly followed her father and rushed to the crime scenes together.

Whenever she encountered brutal criminals who refused to surrender, she would take advantage of the time when her father called for support and secretly take action to knock the criminals down.

This not only helps the father get promoted, but also satisfies the teenage girl's dream of being a superhero.

It wasn't until more than a month ago that an incident changed her mind.

One night, Gwen sneaked out while her father was asleep to punish evil and promote good.

As a result, they unexpectedly caught a criminal who was committing robbery in a dark alley.

After successfully subduing him, Gwen hung the criminal and the murder weapon upside down on the street lamp at the entrance of the Queens Police Department as usual.

Afterwards, she accidentally learned about it from her father.

The criminal he caught that day turned out to be the real murderer who committed twelve serial murders six months ago.

But the most dramatic scene is——

Previously, a reporter from the Global Times easily believed the lies of a con man who wanted to become famous by impersonating a serial killer without verifying the authenticity of the lies.

Based on the content of his "revelations", he wrote a series of special reports, which made him famous and gained both fame and fortune, and he was promoted to the most popular front-line reporter in New York State.

The police, who were unable to solve the case, were forced to do so due to strong public pressure.

They had to put pressure on the reporter named Eddie Brock to reveal the true identity of the serial killer.

So Eddie Brock finally had to give up the "fake".

But who would have thought that within a few months, the real serial killer was caught by Gwen by accident.

Eddie Brock soon fell into disgrace due to his previous reporting of fake news and his bad behavior of providing false information to the police, and was fired by his former employer, the Global Times.

After this incident, Gwen was greatly encouraged and also became more determined to "do justice".

So from that day on, she decided not to continue following behind her father George Stacy.

Instead, he officially started his own "go it alone" mode.

Every night, it wanders among the skyscrapers in Queens like a ghost.

It was precisely because of this that Gwen felt so guilty and regretful at this moment.

She even thought that if she had not made such a change, she would not have missed the best opportunity to rescue her father.

[Gwen, it's time to act...] At this moment, a powerful voice suddenly echoed in Gwen's mind. It was naturally Khorne.

"Who's there?!"

Gwen was startled for a moment, but when she looked up, she found that there was no one in the room except herself.

Is it an auditory hallucination?

It must be like this, after all, even the [Spider Sense] hasn't been activated!

Maybe it’s because I haven’t slept for two days and two nights?
Or is it caused by excessive sadness?
Never mind, it doesn't matter...

The girl wiped her tears, smiled bitterly, and shook her head. "If my father were home, knowing I hadn't slept for such a long time, he would definitely put on a stern face and give me a lecture, then give me a big hug and personally watch me go to sleep quickly..."

At the end of the speech, tears began to flow uncontrollably.

[Gwen, I am disappointed in your cowardice...]

If you really want to be a hero, the first person you need to save is yourself!

Khorne's powerful voice rang out again.

"hero?"

Gwen seemed to have regarded this voice as a hallucination. Instead of feeling scared, she regarded it as a confidant to release the pressure in her heart, and said with self-mockery:
"Have you ever seen a useless hero who couldn't even save his own father?"

"So the truth is... I can't save anyone!"

【But you can avenge him and let his soul rest in peace. 】

[Your father is a good man and doesn't deserve to be treated so cruelly... Of course, that's assuming you have the courage and strength to do so.]

Khorne continued to encourage her... or perhaps to seduce her?
"Yes, my father was such an upright and kind man... He didn't deserve to die. It's not fair, not fair!!"

Gwen felt as if the pent-up anger in her heart was instantly ignited. She stood up abruptly, clenched her fists and said:

"I'm Spider-Woman. I have the ability to avenge my father, and that bastard's crimes are absolutely unforgivable... Never!!"

【very good. 】

Khorne was very satisfied when he saw this.

[Go, seek revenge in your own way... Remember, you are not fighting alone. When you need to fight, I will lend you strength! !]

……

At midnight.

A white figure, like a ghost, swung on spider silk and landed silently on the roof of the Queens Police Station.

Then Gwen used her hands and feet to climb the vertical wall like a spider, and soon came to the northwest corner of the 4th floor, where Sheriff Frank was working.

Originally her father also worked in this area, but now...

However, since Sheriff Frank, the person in charge, was unwilling to tell her the information about her father's murderer, she would just find it on the computer herself...

Gwen entered the house through an open window and successfully found her father's desk according to the location she noticed when she came to look for her father before.

On the table was a large cardboard box filled with George Stacy's personal belongings. At the top was a framed photo of Gwen and her father laughing at the camera.

Gwen's eyes were red. She picked up the photo, gently wiped it on her father's side, and then put it back reluctantly.

I guess in a few days, the police will send someone to return these things to her, right?

"I hope Dad's password still works..."

Gwen turned on the computer on her desk and was about to use her father's account and password to log into the police station's intranet to look up relevant information.

A beam of strong light shot out from behind her, "Spider-Woman, I suggest you stop your illegal actions immediately!!"

A middle-aged female police officer who happened to be patrolling here pointed a tactical flashlight at Gwen in her left hand, while her right hand was on the revolver at her waist.

If the other party makes any extreme move, she will immediately pull out her gun and shoot.

"Spider-Woman, do you know what you are doing?"

"Sneaking into a police station and hacking into their computers is a serious offense. If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid your status will immediately go from being a vigilante in Queens to a wanted criminal!"

obviously.

Gwen's previous actions in helping the Queens Police Department catch criminals won her the approval of the vast majority of police officers, so the middle-aged female police officer did not shoot her immediately!
"Please listen to my explanation..."

Gwen raised her hands obediently and did not do anything extreme.

Because the [Spider Sense] did not indicate any danger.

This means that the female police officer behind her did not pose a subjective threat to her.

"I heard that Sheriff Stacy was killed. He was a good man... I think I should do something for him... but I need to know more about the murderer!"

The middle-aged policewoman heard this and the tense expression on her face softened a lot, but she still remained vigilant and asked:
"So, you plan to get clues from the police and bring that damn monster to justice?"

"Do not."

Gwen shook his head vigorously and said in an extremely firm tone: "This time, I don't want to see him go to jail. I want him to pay with his blood!!"

When she said this, the anger that Gwen unintentionally exuded made the middle-aged female police officer feel inexplicably anxious and uneasy.

After a brief silence.

"All right……"

The middle-aged policewoman seemed to have noticed something, sighed with a complicated expression, then put down the flashlight and sat down in front of the computer.

While entering his account number and password, he said:
"Strictly speaking, the police station building is open to the public on weekdays, so technically speaking, you haven't violated the law before logging into the police intranet!"

"Okay, let's get back to the point. As of now, the identity of the murderer remains a mystery. We only have a few videos related to the murderer, but the content may be a bit too cruel..."

While talking.

The middle-aged female police officer has already retrieved the footage of the police officers encountering the anti-venom on the day of the incident.

When Gwen saw Anti-Venom bite off her father's head with one bite, her originally innocent face under the mask instantly became distorted.

"This guy looks as scary as a monster. No one knows where he came from..."

The middle-aged policewoman reminded him meaningfully, "But one thing is certain: this guy is incredibly powerful. Even bullets can't do any effective damage to him."

"So even if you are... Spider-Woman, I still don't recommend you go looking for it alone."

however.

Gwen couldn't hear anything else except revenge at this moment. She immediately took out a USB drive and said:
"Please give me a copy of this video. I have a hacker friend who might be able to help me find some clues."

The middle-aged policewoman didn't say much. She took the USB drive and copied the video into it.

Then he looked at the pretty white figure who hurriedly said "thank you" and then jumped out of the window, and shook his head helplessly and distressedly:

"You must be careful... Little Gwen!"
