Chapter 32 Peter: My Back

Seven minutes later, in Chinatown, the New York police arrived late.

With caution, the lead policeman carefully entered the courtyard through the broken gate.

Then they saw five or six corpses inside the house, all killed with a single blow, and a headless male corpse lying at the doorway.

Seeing the room mostly covered in red and white bits of flesh, the police officers who witnessed the scene all gasped in shock.

In the very center of the room, an "S" made of blood conspicuously proclaims its existence.

Beside the bloodstains, the body of gang leader Uncle Li was intact, except that most of the back of his head had been ground away.

After a thorough investigation, it was discovered that all the dozen or so people in the entire compound had died violent deaths, and the entire crime took no more than two minutes, making murder easier than killing a chicken.

"Contact headquarters immediately. The leader of the Red Bell Society has been found dead at home. Surveillance footage confirms that the murderer is the same person who committed the murders in the other two gang-related family annihilation cases last night."

Precinct Chief Morgan said with a serious expression, "Unlike other murder targets, this is a hunt, and the target is the head of the entire New York underworld."

"A reasonable speculation is that the killer's face was disfigured by a gang, which led to a deep-seated hatred for the entire underworld. After gaining power, he did not hesitate to take revenge on the underworld."

……

Inside the club, Bai Ye gently patted the skin on her face that had just returned to its original tightness.

After defeating Uncle Li and his gang of thugs, he returned and discovered that his internal energy also aided in the recovery process during the healing of his facial skin, saving him about one-tenth of the healing time.

"Although Uncle Li has been eliminated, we can't stop yet. We've already wiped out three gangs. From now on, we'll kill four more gang leaders a day and send them down to make it a round number," Bai Ye thought to himself.

After all, he couldn't just stop killing after killing Uncle Li. He could simply deal with the most important one first, and then he wouldn't have to rush to kill the rest.

Actually, Bai Ye wanted to wait until the fourth or fifth gang before making a move against Uncle Li, but because the target of the disguise was too clear, he was afraid that Uncle Li would simply hide then.

Of course, an even more ridiculous possibility is that Uncle Li might use his past as leverage to force him to protect him.

"But the New York underworld is probably on edge right now. If we make a move again, we might run into mutants or something, which would be a bit troublesome," Bai Ye said worriedly.

With a heavy heart, Bai Ye picked up the one-ton weighted iron block again and began to forge. Now, improving himself was the only right path.

As Bai Ye focused on his training, around 3 p.m., Coach Smith arrived at the gym and began striking Bai Ye's back with a steel rod, hitting his skin repeatedly.

Name: Bai Ye

Lifespan: 18/700

Strength: 1.7+0.2

Physical fitness: 1.7+0.2

Spirit: 1.6+

Charisma: 1.4+

Attribute points to be used: 0.2

……

When it was 5 p.m., Bai Ye looked at the 0.1 increase in both strength and physique, comparing it to his physical attributes when his actual strength had just reached 1.8.

In fact, the reason why the attributes can be improved so quickly now is entirely due to the 0.2 attribute points added from the attribute points.

According to Bai Ye's normal training speed, the time required to increase by 0.1 should theoretically be even longer. However, since those two extra attribute points do not affect the experience bar and only increase the damage when fighting monsters, his leveling speed is like he has taken a multiplier experience card and simply cannot be stopped.

"I can now easily lift a 3.4-ton object with one arm. In terms of strength, the difference between 1.8 and 1.9 should be around 0.7 tons. It is indeed a larger increase than the increase from 1.7 to 1.8, but the difference is still limited."

"So the increase in strength on this attribute panel must follow an arithmetic progression," Bai Ye guessed to himself.

After glancing at the time, Bai Ye turned to Smith and said, "It's five o'clock. You can go back now."

"Are you taking a break so soon today?" Smith asked, puzzled.

"I have something to do today, I'm going to see a friend. You can rest a bit beforehand and come over early tomorrow. I can teach you martial arts," Bai Ye explained.

"Tomorrow? Okay, I'll come tomorrow morning," Smith said excitedly, and then left happily.

Seeing Smith grinning foolishly, Bai Ye shook his head helplessly. This guy had no understanding of martial arts at all, and probably still had the illusion that he could reach his level after practicing for ten days or half a month.

With the opponent's aptitude at most 1.2, which means it would take half an hour to cultivate even a trace of internal energy, it would take at least a year and a half to see any results.

There is a way to raise him to a level where he can help you: simply use your internal energy to infuse him with it.

According to the information provided by Gentleman's Sword, when internal energy from the same source is poured into someone's body, nearly 20% of it will be consumed, meaning that only 16 out of 20 years of internal energy will remain in the other person's body.

We can use Smith, a ready-made living advertisement, to promote the Zixia Divine Skill a month later, which will greatly increase its value. This is a popular skill that everyone can quickly master as long as they help me.

As for training methods to improve his resilience, he already has a short-term goal: to become Peter Parker, Spider-Man.

As for the long term? He has already started having Smith contact manufacturers of stamping presses to try to make a double A-class stamping press that can meet his requirements. However, it will take at least ten days to half a month to get it done, and he cannot waste time in the meantime.

While thinking, Bai Ye took out her phone from the pocket of a piece of clothing on a nearby shelf, turned it on, found Peter's number, and dialed it.

With a ring, the call was answered, and Bai Ye, without waiting for a reply, asked directly, "Peter, do you have time now?"

"Bai, what are you trying to do? I just fell and hurt my back, I might need some time to rest." Peter said, rubbing his back, from the street corner.

He had just tested his spider silk abilities on a high-rise building when he accidentally fell and hit his back, causing him to have a stitch.

"Oh, really?" Bai Ye's lips curled up as he held the phone in his hand and said, "I've found a job that pays at least $20,000 a month, and you can work part-time after school. Are you sure you don't want to consider it?"

"Twenty thousand a month!!! Bai, where are you now? I'm coming right now." Trusting Bai Ye completely, Peter Parker asked without hesitation.

"It's not far from my house, there's a gym called Mainz Fitness Club. You can check how far it is, you can take a taxi here, and I'll reimburse the fare."

"Mains Gym? I understand, I'll be there in half an hour." Peter hung up the phone, stretched, and felt a cracking sound from his back bones; it seemed a little better.

"What kind of part-time job pays 20,000 a month? And I haven't even asked Bai about the bank robbery yet." Peter Parker shook his head and thought to himself, then set off for the address Bai Ye had given him.

As for taking a taxi? Forget it. Even though Bai Ye said he could reimburse it, his family's financial situation still made him subconsciously save money. With his current physical condition, as long as he ran fast, he could easily reach his destination within half an hour.
