Chapter 1028: New Vigilante
Those new Vigilantes that have emerged also work together as a team, with each member possessing some strength. Although they may not be as powerful as Mirage Knight or Spiderman, they are definitely stronger than an average person.
Initially, Jerry didn’t pay much attention to these new Vigilantes, as there had been several imitators that appeared in New York and across the United States since the League of Defenders had become popular.
However, most of these imitators didn’t last long, either because they lacked the strength or because being a Vigilante or Superhero wasn’t as glamorous as they thought it would be.
At first, Jerry thought that these “imitators” would disappear after a few days of jumping around. However, these new Vigilantes have been active for over a week now, and they have done some things that the League of Defenders or the local police should have done.
For example, a few days ago, they fought against a small gang that was a remnant of Kingpin’s criminal empire.
Although Kingpin’s criminal empire had rapidly declined after his death and the intervention of Jack and the Frankenstein Family, the remaining small gang was still quite powerful.
It was this action that caught Jerry’s attention because these Vigilantes actually posted a video of their fight with the gang on the League of Defenders’ official website.
This move didn’t make Jerry feel displeased because they clearly indicated that they were loyal fans of the League of Defenders and would continue to learn from them.
Since then, Jerry has been keeping an eye on these guys. Of course, with Jerry’s hacking skills, he should have been able to quickly discover their true identities, but he chose not to.
Although Jerry is interested in the girl among the three-person team, he resisted the urge to find out her true identity.
That’s right, the team consists of three people, two guys who are probably not that old, and a short and petite girl who looks like a Loli based on her body type. Also, their attire and titles are quite strange.
One of the guys, who wears brightly colored clothing, is called Kick-Ass, and he is the weakest of the three. The other guy, who is tall and wears a simple black warrior’s outfit, is called Super Warrior, and he is much stronger than Kick-Ass.
And the little girl, who was between the two in terms of strength, was not ambiguous at all when it came to fighting. She wielded her little blade with great skill and was known as the Hit Girl. In this strange trio, the little girl, Hit Girl, was the most popular.
The seemingly cold and aloof Superpower Warrior was also quite well-liked, while Kick-ass, dressed in flashy clothes, was used by everyone as a source of comparison and laughter.
“They haven’t been up to much lately,” Jerry muttered to himself as he browsed the forum section.
Jerry was referring to Kick-ass and his friends, who were now considered up-and-comers on the League of Defender’s official website.
However, thanks to the presence of the League of Defenders and Iron Man, some of the larger dark forces in New York City had already been dealt with, leaving only a few stragglers. So it was normal for Kick-ass and his friends to have no opponents.
Of course, if they were a bit stronger, they could participate in big events like the Extremis crisis just like the League of Defenders.
However, based on their current level of strength, their chances of survival in such an event were slim. So it was better to stick to small-scale activities in the safe confines of New York City.
“The Dark Elf invasion has indeed brought a lot of changes to Earth. Perhaps this event could really bring about a fundamental upgrade for the whole planet,” Jerry continued to browse the forum while pushing the image of Hit-Girl out of his mind.
“Can you give us some more updates on Mirage Knight? I’m his biggest fan and I still prefer the time when he and Daredevil teamed up,” Jerry stumbled upon a post like this while browsing the forum.
Obviously, the person who posted this had been a fan of Mirage Knight for a long time, perhaps even before the establishment of the League of Defenders. After the establishment of the League of Defenders, the official website opened up individual forums for each member.
At first, of course, Mirage Knight, with the biggest reputation, had the most fans, and his forum was the most lively.
But with Spiderman and several other members joining, coupled with the fact that Mirage Knight did not have many civilian activities that were widely known, his limelight was quickly overshadowed by Spiderman.
As a superhero with a next-door neighbor image, Spiderman had high visibility and popularity in New York City, so it was not surprising that he was more popular than Mirage Knight, who worked in the shadows.
“Hey, I also want to update some news about Mirage Knight. But he’s been missing for so long, and a lot of information about him hasn’t been made public yet.” Jerry, who saw the post, could only sigh helplessly.
Dī dī beep~
However, just as Jerry was scrolling past the post, his computer screen suddenly flickered with an important message alert.
Swipe~
The next moment, a video chat box automatically popped up on Jerry’s computer screen. Then, the figure of Mirage Knight, who had been missing for a long time, appeared in the video chat box.
“Jerry, I’m back.”
…
In the luxurious living room on the top floor of Stark Industries building in downtown New York, Lin Rui had just finished video chatting with Jerry at the League of Defenders’ base and casually put away the Phantom Suit.
After leaving Wakanda, Lin Rui went through two space teleportations before returning to New York. At the first opportunity, Lin Rui came to Tony’s place. After all, Tony had been helping him keep his absence from his family.
“You, do you know what happened here when you were gone? And you didn’t even contact us immediately when you came back?!” Tony, who had been sitting opposite Lin Rui the whole time, asked in a serious tone.
“Well… wasn’t it just the Dark Elf invasion of Earth? I saw it on the news when I came back. You guys did a great job. And besides, I already fought them in Asgard. Otherwise, how do you think I got transported away through the space portal?” Lin Rui said calmly, seeing Tony’s serious expression.
“You rascal!… Never mind the Dark Elf invasion. So, why didn’t you contact us right away when you came back? About a week ago, that fiery skeleton in Rochester was related to you, wasn’t it?” Tony was choked by Lin Rui’s answer for a moment, then changed the subject and asked.
