Chapter 116 The Hell Witch's Friendship (Third Update, Please Subscribe!)

With the departure of the Hellswitch.

moment.

The area under the Manhattan Bridge was plunged into darkness once again.

But for both Hawke and Peter, whether it was dark or not, it didn't stop them from seeing it as clearly as daytime.

Peter stared at the vanished Hellswitch before him, his mouth agape.

"she left?"

"Obviously, yes."

"That……"

"Never mind that, it's a private matter for the Osborn family."

"Ok."

Peter was still a little frightened as he recalled how the Hellswitch had just bound him with one hand, and he looked at Hawke.

"Thanks, Hawke."

"It's okay, I'll go now. You can continue playing for a while?"

"No."

Peter shook his head: "Never mind, I'm going home too."

Hawke grunted in response, waved to Peter, and then vanished from Peter's sight in an instant.

Seeing this, Peter also pulled on a spider web, swung on a swing, and left the place.

Beneath the pitch-black Manhattan Bridge, only a robber remained, his face plastered to the wall, his expression crazed as if he had gone mad.

soon.

Back home, Hawke took another shower in the bathroom, then lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling and replaying the Hellswitch who had vanished without a word.

He had just been planning to wait for the Hell Witch to start talking and see if he could get the location of the entrance to the Hell dimension out of her.

result……

The witch is indeed aloof.

Forget it, it's too early to think about the entrance to Hell. Let's focus on getting our hands on the Reality Stone first.

Hawke thought to himself, then slowly closed his eyes, immersing himself in his own inner universe and continuing to patiently cultivate his sixth sense.

When Harry Osborn died, it dominated the front pages of major New York media outlets.

but……

The world does not exist in a way that means it cannot function without someone.

Just like Tony Stark, who plays Iron Man, there hasn't been any news about Tony Stark in the newspapers for a long time since the Christmas incident last year.

The same goes for Harry Osborn.

Aside from the initial few days of media coverage, news about Harry Osborne gradually became scarce after his burial and the release of his notarized will.

Wall Street media focused most of their attention on Felicia Hardy, who succeeded Harry Osborn as the head of Osborn Biotech.

It's worth mentioning that after news of Felicia Hardy's succession spread, Osborne Biotech's stock price not only stopped falling but also rebounded rapidly.

In the words of Wall Street insiders, Felicia Hardy is very familiar to them. She was originally Norman Osborn's secretary, and during Norman Osborn's illness, she was responsible for helping Norman Osborn manage the company. Later, she helped Harry Osborn manage the company, and now she is directly managing it herself.

This experience might remind investors of a familiar name.

Pepper Potts, CEO of Stark Industries.

A few days later, investors also gave Ms. Felicia Hardy a nickname.

"Black Cat!"

"What's the origin of this nickname?"

The day before their group trip to London, Hawke, Gwen, Peter, and Mary got together again to confirm the itinerary and chat about the gossip they'd heard lately.

Mary was the one doing the talking.

After all, Mary's nickname as the Queen of Gossip is well-deserved.

"It is said that Felicia had a black cat that looked particularly beautiful, so the name 'Black Cat' came out."

"Black cat..."

Gwen blinked upon hearing this: "I remember when I was interning in Osborne, there was indeed a black cat in the company. I always thought it belonged to the security department."

After all, they have lab mice in their lab.

Therefore, when Gwen was interning at Osborne, she often saw a black cat wandering back and forth outside their laboratory.

She had initially thought the black cat was kept by the security department to catch mice.

Never thought...

It's Felicia's.

"correct."

Mary smiled, then her eyes lit up, and she said to Gwen, "Do you remember those guys we met at the funeral who were kicked out by Felicia's men? Were they Harry's uncles?"

Gwen nodded.

"Remember, what happened?"

"They filed a lawsuit in court to annul Harry's will, but the court refused to accept the case."

"It would be strange if they could even accept it."

Upon hearing this, Gwen shook her head speechlessly and said, "Harry made his will when he was sober, and there was a video recording. There were also lawyers from the law firm present at the time. Any judge who is not mentally unstable would not have accepted this case; they would have been criticized."

Mary shrugged and then said, "That's not what I meant. Apparently, Harry's second uncle was also diagnosed with a hereditary disease a few days ago."

Gwen's eyes lit up as she looked at Mary.

Hawke and Peter, who were sitting to the side simply because the two women had dragged them out to make up the numbers, also subconsciously looked at each other upon hearing this.

Eyes facing each other.

Hawke smiled and shook his head impassively.

Again.

This is a private matter between Hellswitch and the Osborn family; there's no need to rush into getting involved.

If Harry were still alive, Peter would probably have gone up there if he knew about this.

But Harry is already dead.

Besides Harry, Peter wasn't very familiar with the other people in Osborn, and they might not even think highly of him.

and so……

Peter looked at Hawke's expression, thought for a moment, and then chose to mute himself.

Time flew by as Mary and Gwen chatted about gossip and confirmed their travel itinerary.

By the time Hawke and Gwen returned to Stacy's apartment, it was already six o'clock in the evening.

Helen has already prepared dinner.

The people are still the same.

The dish was still the classic lemon sea bass. Helen still had that mother-in-law's increasingly fond expression as she looked at her son-in-law, while George still had that father-in-law's increasingly displeased expression as he looked at his son-in-law.

Gwen's two younger brothers were as mischievous and cheerful as ever.

Hawke watched this scene, then looked at Gwen beside him, who also had a happy smile on her face, and suddenly thought of Electro, whom he had killed with a single punch not long ago.

Electric Man.

Power plant.

Gwen.

Hawke suddenly realized where the sense of relief he felt after blasting Electro had come from.

after eating.

Hawke drove back to his home on Palm Street.

but……

Hawke, who had just returned to the living room from the garage, immediately saw a ball of blue flame floating by the fireplace.

next second.

The blue flames gradually took shape, and once again, the Hellswitch I had seen under the Manhattan Bridge appeared in front of the fireplace.

Hawke raised an eyebrow, tossed the car keys into the fruit bowl Gwen had bought to use as a decoration, and walked toward the sofa.

The Hellswitch's voice remained as eerie as ever.

"Thank you."

"..."

Did I realize then that I actually had the ability to kill them back then?
Hawke listened to the thank you, thought to himself, then smiled slightly and got straight to the point: "Could you tell me where the entrance to Hell is?"

Upon hearing this, the Hellswitch paused, then spoke again in a low voice.

But this time, the tone of voice changed.

It seemed as if several women of different ages and personalities were speaking.

"The entrance to the Hell dimension has been closed."

"Some time ago."

"It seems Mephisto got beaten up."

"Then he closed the entrance to the Hell dimension."

"..."

Hawke listened to the somewhat chattering voice and looked at the Hell Witch in front of him with curiosity.

This time, the Hell Witch's voice returned to normal.

"I'm sorry, we were burned to death together back then, and our souls are intertwined. Because we can't forgive, we've come up here for revenge."

"understand."

Hawke nodded: "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. You take your revenge; I won't interfere."

The Hellswitch thanked her again.

Hawke then steered the conversation back to Hell: "You just said that the entrance to the Hell dimension is closed?"

Good guy.

So Mephisto was just spouting empty threats?

While saying I'm still very weak, I returned to hell and shut the gates of hell tightly.

It shouldn't be.

He knew that he was very powerful now, but in the eyes of God, he was still not enough.

Hawke wondered to himself.

at this time.

The Hellscream explained, "It's said that some time ago, Mephisto came to Earth, but he was discovered by the representative of the Kamar-Taj dimension, who beat him up. After returning, Mephisto closed the entrance to the Hell dimension."

Kama Taj.

Spokesperson.

Ancient One?

Hawke gasped upon hearing this: "The Ancient One didn't kill Mephisto, did she?"

You absolutely must not kill him.

He still needs to go to hell to pick up his sister.

The Hell Witch shook her head: "Mephisto is the ruler of the Hell dimension. As long as the Hell dimension exists, Mephisto will not die."

Hawke breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and then looked at the Hellswitch.

"Do you know when the entrance to the Hell dimension will open?"

"can."

"Then do me a favor and let me know after the portal to Hell Dimension opens. I have something to do and need to go to Hell Dimension."

"can."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

After speaking, the Hellscream gazed at Hawke quietly for a moment, then transformed back into a ball of blue flame and plunged into the fireplace.

There was a bang.

A flash of blue light appeared in the fireplace, and then the entire living room was plunged into darkness.

Seeing this, Hawke turned around and walked towards the bedroom on the third floor.

and many more.

He suddenly stopped and blinked.

Mephisto got hammered by the Ancient One?

That shouldn't be the case. Mephisto is a god no matter what, and the Ancient One, no matter how powerful, is not a god after all.

correct.

The Ancient One possessed the Time Stone.

Ok.

Hawke smiled wryly after realizing this, then shook his head.

Forget it.

For him right now...

Reality gems are still the most important.
