Ultraman Noah from Marvel

40. An ordinary rescue

The five vampires and two humans present were frozen in place, unable to even move their eyes. One of the vampires' sharp fingernails was only centimeters away from Eddie.

A tall man wearing a short-sleeved shirt, shorts, and slippers slowly appeared in the air; it was Ji Yuan.

Of course, he didn't use any time stop; he simply used a psychic field to immobilize the bodies of the people below. There was no special mechanism involved; it was purely a matter of numerical beauty.

"Snapped!"

With a snap of his fingers, Spider-Man and Eddie immediately resumed their movements.

"Mr. Reporter, are you alright?" The first thing Spider-Man did after regaining his mobility was to ask about Eddie's safety.

"I...I'm fine." Eddie still looked bewildered. Tonight's events had shattered his worldview. He had seen superhumans, superpowered individuals, and vampires all in one night, and had even experienced a life-or-death crisis. He was now drenched in cold sweat.

"Mr. Ji Yuan, should I not have come?" Spider-Man said somewhat awkwardly.

Seeing that Ji Yuan arrived so timely, even the most oblivious person would guess what had happened and feel like they had gotten into trouble.

"No, you've come at just the right time," Ji Yuan said reassuringly.

He was originally following behind Eddie, ready to see which idiot was trying to kill him, so Spider-Man's appearance was indeed unexpected.

However, since the vampire elder has already appeared, the effect will be the same.

Ji Yuan turned his gaze to the five vampires suspended in mid-air. The strongest, most luxuriously dressed, and most terrified one was the vampire elder.

Seeing that the terrifying human's gaze was fixed on them, the vampires, bound by telekinesis, still trembled uncontrollably.

These high-level vampires are naturally capable of using telekinesis; what gave Spider-Man a headache just now was a variant of telekinesis.

Therefore, the vampire elder could sense that what was controlling them, preventing them from moving, was psychic power—an incredibly vast psychic power.

But why would a human possess such powerful telekinesis? Is it telekinesis from another dimension? If a human has this level of power, why would they cooperate with vampires? They could just raise them.

Ji Yuan had no idea what these vampires were thinking. With a thought, the other four vampires, except for the vampire elder, vanished from the world as if erased by an eraser, leaving no trace.

"Hey, old man, who ordered you to kill this reporter?" Ji Yuan asked directly after releasing his telekinesis from the vampire elder's head.

"What? Kill a reporter?" the vampire elder asked, puzzled. "I didn't receive any orders from above."

"Then why are you chasing them?" Ji Yuan was also puzzled.

The vampire elder's eyes turned bloodshot, his fangs bristled, and he became extremely terrifying, roaring, "This man in the bodysuit killed my son! I'll kill him!"

"Um?"

Afterwards, Ji Yuan had a friendly exchange with the manic vampire elder and finally figured out why.

Simply put, the vampire Peter killed at the beginning was the son of the vampire elder before he became a vampire. The father and son became vampires together and had a very deep bond.

Therefore, most of the vampires from Hell's Kitchen were sent to hunt them down, but Peter wiped them all out by himself.

As for why his son killed Eddie, the vampire elder didn't know. He was only an elder in Manhattan, not in New York City, and there were many things he didn't know. Even the news of his son's murder came from another vampire.

Ji Yuan keenly sensed that something was wrong. It seemed that the vampires weren't so united after all; they were all doing their own thing, and even cross-regional orders were being issued.

"Oh? I've messed up again..." Spider-Man felt very disappointed after listening to the vampire elder's explanation.

Ji Yuan patted Spider-Man on the shoulder and said, "Don't be sad. Think about it, even if his son hadn't died, would they definitely be able to find out who the mastermind was? And even if they did, would it necessarily be useful?"

"You've already shown them the videos and photos, but they still won't admit it, and even turned around and accused you. Don't blame yourself. The matter is almost resolved. All you need to do is kill the vampires."

The world is inherently unfair; those with power and influence are powerful. Moreover, society needs stability. Revealing the truth hidden in the shadows would bring about enormous social unrest, especially since vampires have infiltrated so deeply into all aspects of human life.

Without absolute certainty, both sides will definitely choose stability.

"Alright then." Spider-Man was still somewhat disappointed. He realized that the world wasn't as he had imagined. He had already felt bad when Thompson bullied him, but he never expected the truth of the world to be even more despairing.

But isn't it even more worthwhile to save a world where there are still so many righteous people like Eddie, the journalist?

Spider-Man suddenly felt a surge of righteous indignation, and the nausea he felt from killing vampires instantly lessened.

Ji Yuan glanced at Spider-Man suspiciously, wondering why he suddenly seemed to have been given a pep talk, and his emotions suddenly became high.

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. After all, Spider-Man was still just a kid, and it was perfectly normal for him to have emotional fluctuations.

"Let's go, let's go see how Daredevil is doing." After saying that, Ji Yuan flew away with Spider-Man and Eddie.

Of course, they also didn't forget to send the vampire elder to reunite with his son.

When they found Daredevil, he was standing there, slowly wiping the blood off the short stick in his hand, seemingly having won an easy victory.

Yeah, that's pretentious.

But the person you fought with has probably already escaped.

Everyone returned to Ji Yuan's house, which had been repaired by people sent by S.H.I.E.L.D. and looked exactly the same as before, except for a few dozen broken listening devices.

"Xiao Bai, make our reporter a big meal, he looks starving!" Ji Yuan shouted.

Little White quickly flew down from the wall, skillfully opened the refrigerator, took out the dishes, and began cooking.

Eddie saw a cloaked figure cooking. His expression was initially shocked, but then gradually calmed down. He had seen enough tonight; nothing else would surprise him. Since things had come to this, he might as well start cooking.

Soon, the feast was ready, and Eddie ate like a starving ghost, while Ji Yuan and the other two chatted.

"Little Spider, how's your superpower improvement going?" Ji Yuan asked.

Spider-Man said with an embarrassed look, "The speed at which I can control my powers can't keep up with the speed at which my powers are increasing. I keep breaking the furniture at home. But the range of my spider-sensing is getting wider and wider, and it already has a radius of 500 meters."

Ji Yuan nodded. The little spider's improvement was good, but it was still far from reaching the level of a 400-year-old woman.

You should know that the spider sense of the 400-year-old woman has a radius of 50 kilometers. If Peter could reach that level, what would he have to worry about regarding fatalism? He would have completely ruined the heir family.
