Chapter 466 Crushing Defeat
Although Felicia has never seen the power of the Palm Cannon because she has never been in contact with Tony.
But seeing the muzzle of the cannon, which was clearly larger than the caliber of a conventional gun, the strong instinct for survival instantly overwhelmed everything.
The excruciating pain, the grinding sensation of her broken ribs, and her blurring vision... all the pain her body was enduring was screaming at her to run away as fast as she could.
But Felicia, who had always looked up to Riley as a role model and aspired to become a qualified superhero, forced her to calm down and, in a fraction of a second, make what she saw as the only way to survive…
Even if you have to bite it with your teeth, you absolutely cannot let that thing finish charging!
"Drink it—!"
Felicia let out an almost beastly roar, enduring the pain and concentrating all her strength in her left leg. She leaped into the air and delivered a powerful flying kick, slamming it heavily into the mysterious man's chest armor!
"Bang!"
The opponent was kicked back two steps, interrupting the charging of the palm cannon.
However, the other party clearly anticipated that Felicia would do this.
Ultimately, Felicia was still too young...
While the palm cannon is convenient and easy to use, its power is indeed remarkable.
However, in the absence of an arc reactor for power, ordinary people who want to use other energy sources to employ this weapon will inevitably become large and bulky.
However, the Mysterious Man's traditional suit, which doesn't even qualify as a nanotech suit, clearly doesn't meet this requirement.
Therefore, the palm cannon attack was just a feint.
The purpose was to put pressure on Felicia, forcing her to abandon her space to dodge and actively close the distance between them, entering the mysterious man's attack range!
That's why, even though the attack hit its mark, Felicia's heart sank.
The texture doesn't feel right.
The kick did hit, and the power was completely transferred, but the feedback felt...
It doesn't feel like a solid kick to the human body.
It was more like kicking a heavy object that was suspended by a spring.
Moreover, the opponent's retreating trajectory was too stable, showing no signs of losing balance at all.
Just as she ran out of strength and began to fall, she caught a glimpse of the problem out of the corner of her eye!
Two almost transparent spider silk threads shot out from the mysterious man's wrists and stuck to the walls on both sides.
At this moment, the two spider silk threads were stretched taut, emitting a slight buzzing vibration, absorbing and dispersing most of the kinetic energy of her kick!
This is a trap!
The thought had barely crossed Felicia's mind when she landed heavily on the ground. Her broken ribs dislocated again from the impact, and the excruciating pain made her vision blur. She staggered half a step before managing to regain her balance.
This half-step flaw is fatal enough.
"stretch--"
The sound of the spider silk snapping back was so faint it was almost inaudible.
But the mysterious figure had already appeared like a ghost!
Using the force of the two spider silks rebounding, the mysterious man's entire figure shot towards her like an arrow released from a bow.
With his right fist behind him and his body leaning forward, he concentrates all his body weight, the kinetic energy from his thighs pushing off the ground, and the additional force from the spider web rebound into this one punch, using the standard "Superman punch" posture!
This attack came too quickly.
Felicia was too close to make any dodging movements. Driven by her instinct for self-preservation, she could only cross her arms in front of her chest.
Unfortunately, her movements were still too slow.
"Snap—!!!"
With a mournful cry as the internal support structure of the nanosuit snapped, the fist pierced through her fragile defenses and slammed solidly into the center of her chest armor.
The impact swept over her body like a tsunami, penetrating her armor, shattering her already broken ribs, and reaching deep into her chest cavity!
"puff--!"
Felicia wanted to cry out in pain, but a surge of bloody sweetness rose up and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
After suffering a severe injury, her legs completely lost their strength, and she slumped to the ground like a puppet with broken strings. Fortunately, her back slammed hard against the wall, preventing her from collapsing completely.
At the same time, Felicia's vision flickered wildly between black and white, and her ears were filled with a sharp ringing.
Even worse, the shattered bones made Felicia feel like knives were churning inside her lungs with every breath, causing her excruciating pain that nearly suffocated her.
The only saving grace was that when she stubbornly and painstakingly raised her head, she could barely make out the mysterious man in front of her, slowly withdrawing his fist, through her gradually blurring vision.
He did not pursue them.
He just stood there, arms crossed, coldly looking down at her, as if observing a small animal that had reached its end and was struggling to survive.
"You lasted even less than I expected... Game over, kitty."
After a brief pause, the mysterious man's voice, synthesized using a voice changer, carried an undisguised sense of superiority, along with a hint of disappointment.
"You may have good skills, quick reflexes, and sufficient strength. But you lack enough practical experience... and most importantly, you are too easy to read."
He took half a step forward, stopping the tip of his boot a meter in front of Felicia.
"Want to become a superhero like that wall-climbing worm? That's a bit too early for you." He paused, lowering his voice, "Now, if you want to keep living, to see tomorrow's sun..."
The Imitation Master crouched down, the white light from his goggles almost touching Felicia's mask.
"Just tell me honestly: Who sent you? Who gave you this power? Who provided you with this equipment? And..."
His voice turned cold, emphasizing each word:
What exactly is your relationship with Spider-Man?
Upon hearing this, Felicia fell silent.
Regret?
Of course there are...
I regret not listening to Riley.
I regret going in so hastily.
I regret thinking I could handle everything.
If she could do it all over again, she would have obediently followed Riley's instructions and turned back immediately when she sensed something was wrong at the alley entrance. Then she would have returned to District 13, relayed the information she had gathered to Riley, and waited for Riley to make further judgments.
However, regret does not mean she will give in, much less betray her companions in order to survive!
She opened her mouth, and the blood gushing from her throat made her cough, bringing up another mouthful of bloody foam.
But she still forced a bloodied smile, despite the pain.
"You...cough cough...you're overthinking it. I was just passing by. You suddenly attacked me...What law says this alley is your private territory and no one else is allowed to enter or leave?"
His voice was so hoarse it was almost inaudible, but the provocation in it was crystal clear.
Then, coughing up blood, Felicia struggled to raise her right hand. With trembling fingers, she slowly raised her middle finger towards the mysterious man before her.
The movements were contorted with pain, but the meaning was clear.
This caused the mysterious man to fall into a brief silence.
Then, he chuckled and raised his right hand again.
"Ha, how naive... Since you want to be a hero, I'll grant your wish—!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than the mysterious man, showing no mercy whatsoever, aimed his fist at Felicia's temple and slammed it down!
Felicia, filled with regret and resentment, closed her eyes, preparing to face her impending death.
Strangely enough, Felicia didn't feel particularly scared at this point; instead, she felt a bit curious...
Upon learning of his own death...
Will Riley feel angry and shed a few tears for her death?
