Getting stronger and stronger starting from Marvel.

Chapter 34 The Dried Corpse

Inside the gym, Bai Ye was being relentlessly whipped by Peter.

The attack proceeds from the back to the arms and thighs, finally striking directly at the chest and abdomen.

The areas where the person was whipped first turned red, then bruised, and finally the skin and flesh were torn apart and blood flowed out.

Half an hour later, blood continued to flow from Bai Ye's wounds all over his body, staining his clothes bright red and turning him into a blood-soaked figure.

But Peter Parker was even less able to hold on than Bai Ye. After swinging and smashing for half an hour, he simply let go of the steel rod stuck to Bai Ye's flesh and sat down on the ground.

"Why did you stop hitting him?" Bai Ye asked, looking at Peter who was sitting on the ground. He was covered in blood and hadn't fallen down yet, so why did the abuser fall down?

"Bai, I've already whipped you over ten thousand times, and my arms are incredibly sore now."

Peter Parker rubbed his arm, looking at his friend with the eyes of someone looking at a monster. If it were an ordinary person, they would have been turned into mincemeat long ago, but this guy just stood there in a horse stance, without even a sway in his steps.

"You...you young man's stamina is lacking," Bai Ye said with dissatisfaction.

Despite having a 2.8-meter physique, it needed to rest after only half an hour. Even the donkeys in the production team wouldn't dare to slack off like that.

Although he was not satisfied, Bai Ye knew that this was indeed the limit of the other party's physical strength.

Although Peter's constitution attribute appears to be 2.8, Bai Ye knows that constitution represents the body's defense, stamina, aptitude, and recovery speed.

Peter may only have reached the extreme value of 2.8 in physical defense among these four attributes, while the other three attributes are far behind, unlike his panel data which shows all-round growth.

"Then you should rest for a bit, and we'll continue in half an hour. I'm going to continue my training," Bai Ye said helplessly.

While he was speaking, Bai Ye's wounds, which had been bleeding all over his body, had stopped bleeding and healed. He would be fully recovered in another four or five hours.

Seeing his energetic friend, Peter could only step aside and ask, "White, how much longer do I have to work today?"

"I can spend the whole day with you," Bai Ye said, swinging his fist forward while gripping the iron lump.

"Who asked you that?" Peter said speechlessly. "I asked what time you get off work tonight."

"It's six o'clock now. You can choose to go back at ten o'clock," Bai Ye said. "Remember to come here immediately after school tomorrow."

"Understood." Peter nodded helplessly.

However, having already received the $20,000, he couldn't refuse. He felt that a thick barrier made of money had already separated him from Bai Ye.

Ten minutes later, Peter had almost recovered his strength and continued to tap and pound on Bai Ye's body. After hitting him for half an hour, he would rest for ten minutes, and so on.

During this process, Peter also began to notice that as his exercise increased, his already strong stamina and strength began to improve slightly.

It seems that the untapped potential within the body was activated through training.

This discovery made Peter take it seriously, and he became willing to cooperate with the training of White Night. The training effect was greatly increased, and by 10 p.m., he didn't even want to go back.

Peter dawdled until 11 o'clock, and finally left the gym when he was exhausted. After he left, Bai Ye, who had lost his experience pack, also stopped his training.

此刻原本下午刚刚达到1.7的体质经验条，经过一晚上的锻鍊直接飙升到1.7+0.2（70%），明天绝对能再提高0.1。

Impressed by the benefits of Spider-Man as a training tool, Bai Ye took out paper and pen from the corner and began to write down the Purple Cloud Divine Skill he would teach Smith the next day.

With a mental strength of 1.7, Bai Ye now possesses almost photographic memory and millimeter-level precision.

Holding the pen, Bai Ye quickly sketched without any aids, his hands leaving afterimages in the process.

In just two hours, Bai Ye replicated the entire Zixia Divine Skill manual, along with Yue Buqun's annotations.

After doing all this, Bai Ye put away the manual. Feeling that his bloody wounds had not yet fully healed, Bai Ye simply sat cross-legged on the cold marble and began to gather his qi.

An hour later, after three more strands of purple true qi appeared in Bai Ye's dantian, his wounds had completely healed. After eating some food to fill his stomach, he stood up and continued to practice.

He now finds that he seems to no longer need sleep, and the damage to his body caused by staying up late has begun to outpace the speed of physical healing.

"I feel like I'm becoming less and less human," Bai Ye thought to himself, as he picked up a lump of iron and began to forge it.

……

Late at night, most people in New York City were asleep, with only a few still striving for their goals.

In the hallway of an apartment building in Brooklyn, a woman in her twenties lay dead on her doorstep, her eyes wide open and her body emaciated.

"Too late again."

Standing in front of the mummified corpse was a man who was 1.9 meters tall. He had blue eyes, a black slicked-back hairstyle, a tall and muscular build, and wore a trench coat.

The man's T-shirt had a white skull printed on it, giving him a menacing look.

The man crouched down and gently pushed the woman's head away, revealing two bloody holes in her neck.

"Damn vampire bastard." The man cursed under his breath as he stood up, turned and walked into the darkness, then took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Hey Matt, when is your body ready for a mission?"

Back in the hospital, Matt, lying back in his bed, asked with difficulty, "Victor, I might need another two weeks to recover before I can walk normally. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's that group of vampire bastards that you can't kill them all. Although they used to be very unruly, their hunting was always regular and in certain locations. But this month, there have been seven cases of corpses that have been drained of their life force. I suspect they're up to something big."

"What about Blade? I remember that vampires have always been his domain, haven't they?" Matt's expression turned serious.

"I tried to contact him, but he completely lost contact yesterday, which is why I came to you."

"How about I recommend someone to you?"

"Who should I recommend?"

"It's that student who was on TV the other day. I think he has a lot of potential and I'd like you to mentor him," Matt said.

"You know I don't like mentoring newcomers, but I will keep an eye on them. Compared to him, I admire that serial killer more."

"A serial killer? Who?!"

"He's the mutant who wiped out three gangs in the last couple of days. I find his actions quite appealing," Victor said before hanging up the phone.
