The only player in the Marvel universe

Chapter 77 To be honest, I'm actually an undercover agent.

"Roar!!"

Dr. Lizard roared in agony.

However, having lost both arms and legs, it was completely powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as the giant axe fell again and again.

After an unknown amount of time, a figure in red and blue finally arrived at the scene in a hurry.

"Your friendly neighbor, Spider-Man, is here."

Peter was so shocked by what he saw before he almost peed himself.

The corridor was littered with severed limbs and remains, and the walls and floor were splattered with blood, a truly horrifying sight.

In the area where the severed limbs were most concentrated, a figure was constantly raising an axe and chopping, each strike accompanied by the sickening sound of the blade tearing through flesh, interspersed with faint, painful whimpers.

For Peter, a high school student who hadn't even graduated yet, not to be so frightened by the scene that he wet himself was quite remarkable.

What kind of horror movie scene is this?!
Peter swallowed hard, mustered his courage, and peered forward, only to realize that the murderer wielding the axe was none other than Du Mu.

At his feet, Dr. Lizard, who had been incredibly fierce not long ago, now had lost the light in his eyes, lying motionless on the ground, completely flat.

"Um, what happened here?"

Peter asked cautiously, afraid that Du Mu might suddenly turn on him as well.

Upon seeing Peter's arrival, Du Mu chuckled and said, "This guy's self-healing ability is too strong; only this method can completely restrict his movements."

It's obviously very strong. I was only gone for a short while, and the lizard meat in this corridor is almost as good as wholesale.

Peter originally came to help Du Mu fight against Dr. Lizard, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't need help at all.

In contrast, Dr. Lizard seems more like the one who needs to be rescued by a superhero.

[Mission 'Awaiting Support' completed!]

[Rewards: 1500 experience points, 10 Peter Parker favorability, 'Mana Potion', 'A Stack of Explosive Tags']

[Item: Mana Potion (Restores a certain amount of mana upon consumption)]

[Item: A stack of explosive tags (tags that can be detonated by injecting energy; they are quite valuable, and it is rumored that a certain wealthy woman possesses 6000 billion explosive tags)]

Just as Peter was trying to persuade Du Mu to stop, Dr. Lizard's body began to shrink rapidly, and the scales on his body gradually disappeared.

In a short while, it turned back into Connors with the missing arm.

Peter blurted out, "Professor Connors? How could it be you?!"

He never expected that this terrifying green lizard was actually his mentor and friend, Professor Connors.

Professor Connors was in a daze for a moment before slowly raising his head and looking up at Peter, his face filled with regret and pain.

"Peter, I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself."

"What's wrong with you? Who is Peter? Are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"

Peter suddenly realized that he was now appearing as Spider-Man, not Peter Parker, and quickly tried to laugh it off.

Even though Professor Connors already knew his secret identity, Du Mu, who was unaware of it, was still nearby.

"Stop acting, Peter, I know you're Spider-Man."

Du Mu couldn't stand Peter's terrible acting and directly exposed him.

Peter was stunned. He opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

After a long pause, he stammered, "How did you know? I was pretending so well."

Du Mu curled his lip: "Your voice hasn't been processed at all. Anyone who knows you even a little bit can recognize it as yours if they listen carefully."

Peter retorted, unconvinced: "Impossible! Mary Jane never recognized it!"

Du Mu: "."

Why do you keep humiliating yourself like this?
Seeing that he couldn't keep up the act any longer, Peter had no choice but to accept the reality and said helplessly, "So, you already knew I was Spider-Man?"

Du Mu nodded: "Yes, I knew it the first time you appeared."

"Then why didn't you say anything?" Peter asked, puzzled.

"Why did I have to call you out? It's quite amusing to watch you go to such lengths to act in front of me. If it weren't for how terribly you acted this time, I wouldn't have bothered to expose you." "."

Peter's lips twitched.

So he's been putting on an act all along for himself!

Just then, Du Mu suddenly received a call from Nick Fury.

"Agent Du Mu, are you at Midtown High School?"

"Chief, how did you know?"

"Because the S.H.I.E.L.D. vehicle you stole had a tracking device on it."

Fury's voice was tinged with helplessness.

Several agents have reported to him in recent days that vehicles parked outside headquarters have been disappearing from time to time.

It's obvious that it was Du Mu who did it again.

"We'll talk about this later."

Nick Fury said in a deep voice, "I just received news that a lizard-like monster has appeared at Midtown High School. I need you to investigate it immediately."

Du Mu said happily, "No need for such a troublesome investigation. Whatever you want to know, I'll have him tell you directly."

Nick Fury: "?"

Du Mu briefly described the situation, and Nick Fury then learned that the lizard monster had already been defeated by Du Mu.

Okay, now they're all starting to get a head start.

Nick Fury couldn't help but sigh again.

Having Agent Du Mu is a real blessing for S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Nick Fury was quite satisfied with this and said with some approval, "Well done, Agent Du Mu. Your investigation mission has now been officially changed to an arrest mission. I need you to bring Professor Connors back immediately and not let him fall into the hands of other agencies."

NPC Nick Fury has given you a new mission.

[Mission: Arrest Third Sister-in-Law]

Objective: To capture Kurt Connors.

[Rewards: 2000 experience points, 40 S.H.I.E.L.D. reputation, 1 random piece of equipment, 1 random item]

Du Mu was overjoyed.

What's the difference between this and giving away a free reward?
The good thing about Nick Fury is that he's easier to trigger quests with than other NPCs Du Mu encounters.

Since the start of the game, Du Mu has created countless quests for him; he's practically a ruthless quest-generating machine.

“No problem, I will bring Professor Connors back.”

Du Mu hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

Seeing this, Peter asked with a puzzled look, "Du Mu, who exactly are you?"

Du Mu said seriously, "To be honest, I am actually a member of the NYPD."

"But aren't you a sports student?"

"That's just my cover identity. My real identity is an undercover agent hidden in Midtown High School, specifically investigating a missing firearm case."

"Oh, I see."

Peter nodded in sudden realization and believed it.

Wuwuwu——!
Just then, a police siren sounded outside the school.

Now that the incident is over, according to the established rules, it's time for the New York police to make their appearance.

Upon hearing the voice, Du Mu's expression hardened: "Oh no, it's an NYPD cop! I have to get out of here right now!"

As he spoke, he immediately pulled out a sack, stuffed the naked Professor Connors inside, hoisted the sack over his shoulder, and ran away.

Peter: "."
