American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 149 Limits

In the Hellish Space, now renamed Elysium by Xiao Xian, Felicity Smoke suddenly appeared in the hall, looking around at the scenery with astonishment, utterly shocked.

"Wow~ This is amazing."

"The amazing things are yet to come. Wait here for a while, and I'll take you to Xiao Xian's place later," Black Widow said to Felicity Smoke as she walked into the hall, dressed in black leather.

"You're Black Widow?" Felicity Smoke asked in surprise. She hadn't expected that Black Widow was related to Xiao Xian, who was S.H.I.E.L.D.'s top agent.

"That's right, Mrs. Oliver," Black Widow called out deliberately. She was going for the sexy agent route, so it wasn't a big deal if her relationship with Xiao Xian was exposed. Anyway, the number of ambiguous roles she had were enough to form several Avengers, so this kind of thing didn't matter to her at all.

In contrast, Felicity Smoke is different; if this were exposed, she would definitely be kicked out by Oliver.

"Is Xiao Xian busy?" Felicity Smoke understood the Black Widow's threat and instead asked, "Is there anything I can help with?"

"He's doing *that* with another girl, what can you do to help?" Black Widow rolled her eyes. Since she arrived, Xiao Xian has fought more than a dozen battles in a row, including her.

"It's not impossible to be together," Felicity Smoke said impatiently. She wasn't against it at all. She had always looked forward to being with Xiao Xian. Now that she was here, the thought of being with Xiao Xian soon made her heart race. Even the mere friction between her skin and clothes made her blush and her breathing quicken.

"He seems determined to come at us one by one today." Black Widow scoffed. If they could all come at once, you wouldn't even get a chance. I'm still not dead yet.

Unlike others who fall after just one round of fighting, Black Widow is a veteran with a strong will. After one round of fighting, she recovered from her state of rolling her eyes and sticking out her tongue in just over ten minutes.

However, after she recovered, Xiao Xian did not start a second round with her, but instead put her in charge of reception and other tasks.

"I see." Felicity Smoke said with a hint of disappointment, then quickly asked, "About how long until it's my turn?"

"It'll be soon. This place is different from other places. Here, our senses will be amplified a lot. Someone who can fight him for three or four hours outside will fall down in ten or fifteen minutes here."

Black Widow explained that she could fight Xiao Xian for five or six hours outside, and part of the reason she collapsed was due to exhaustion. But here, Black Widow only lasted for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, Black Widow's mind went blank, and she was fighting only on instinct. Although she could still fight and wanted to fight, Black Widow felt that if she continued to fight, she might break down.

Even after stopping, it took Black Widow more than ten minutes to recover. This was only because Black Widow was a veteran with exceptional willpower. She had received relevant training back in the Red Room. Of course, the one in the Red Room was not even worthy of carrying Xiao Xian's shoes.

"I wonder how long I can hold out?" Felicity Smoke asked expectantly.

"How long can you and Oliver usually last?" Black Widow asked.

"He never reached my limit," Felicity Smoke said, pursing her lips.

"And what about with multiple people?" Black Widow then asked.

"Huh? I haven't tried it. I've only tried it with Oliver and my ex-boyfriend, but no one has ever reached my limit." Felicity Smoke was taken aback, thinking to herself, "No wonder she's the Black Widow, she's very experienced in combat."

"I see. That's a pity, but it's alright. A whole group of people can't beat Xiao Xian alone. I haven't fought anyone since I got together with him."

Black Widow spoke with the air of someone who had been there before, and when she arrived here, her already meager morals in this area completely collapsed.

"It's a pity. But it's not a pity either." Felicity Smoke was taken aback when she heard this, and looked at Black Widow awkwardly. Since she came here, there hadn't been much change in this aspect. The only thing was that the guilt she originally felt towards Oliver had not only disappeared, but had turned into a kind of excitement, which made her feel very excited.

When Black Widow called her Mrs. Oliver and asked how long Oliver could last, Felicity Smoke felt a surge of excitement rush to her head, making her extremely thrilled.

Felicity Smoke even considered calling Oliver or sending him a video or something—basically, anything that would be provocative.

"It's your turn. Come with me, I'll take you to see Xiao Xian." Black Widow touched her earphone, then raised an eyebrow and said to Felicity Smoke.

"Okay, let's go!" Felicity Smoke said excitedly; she couldn't wait.

"I've worked so hard. It's not easy to collect some cores of the Sin Refining Space."

Xiao Xian stretched, glanced at Ike's wife who had completely lost her senses, and got up to walk towards the room opposite.

Ike's wife isn't exactly a stunning beauty; she's just a typical Western-style mature woman, considering their daughter is already eighteen. However, their daughter is youthful, beautiful, and very pretty.

Xiao Xian originally didn't plan to bring Ike's wife in, but Ike kept calling Xiao Xian, complaining that he couldn't hold the event and that if Xiao Xian dared to bring his wife or daughter in, he would use his power to retaliate against Xiao Xian severely and make it impossible for Xiao Xian to move an inch in Osborn Company in the future.

Xiao Xian already disliked Ike because of what happened during the Osborn mission, and now that Ike dared to threaten him, Xiao Xian decisively brought him in as part of the ordinary people sample.

As for revenge? Harry Osborn, the head of the Osborn Group, is completely obedient to Xiao Xian, so why would Xiao Xian care about Ike, a mere mid-level manager?

As it turns out, the evil deeds committed by ordinary people are indeed not as great as those committed by characters in the story. However, since there are a large number of ordinary people, if you add some tricks, the profits can be quite good. If two people work together, they can achieve a result greater than the sum of their parts.

Unfortunately, in the Marvel universe, the average human lifespan is just so-so, especially for the white woman, who is synonymous with a short blooming period. Similar plots are hard to replicate. It's not that they are hard to replicate, but Xiao Xian has very high standards and doesn't want to compromise himself.

Only a very small number of people are as well-maintained as Ike's wife; Xiao Xian has no interest in the vast majority.

"Hello~ handsome, I'm here." Felicity Smoke stood at the door, waved to Xiao Xian, and gave him a flirtatious wink.

Felicity Smoke wore a light blue button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up to her forearms, paired with a dark short skirt that reached mid-thigh, and black open-toe high heels on her long, fair legs.
