Chapter 32 - Peter: My Back

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

With caution, the leading officer carefully entered the courtyard through the damaged gate.

Then, they saw five or six bodies in the courtyard, killed with a single blow, along with a headless male corpse lying at the doorway.

Looking at the room, mostly covered in red and white flesh, the police officers present all gasped.

In the center of the room, an S made of blood declared its existence in a conspicuous manner.

Beside the bloodstain, Uncle Li, the gang leader, was intact, except that a large portion of the back of his head had been ground away.

After a thorough investigation, more than a dozen people throughout the entire residence were dead. The entire crime had been committed in less than two minutes, making killing seem easier than slaughtering a chicken.

"Immediately contact headquarters. The leader of the Red Bell Society died at home. Surveillance confirms that the killer is the same person responsible for the other two gang massacres last night."

Police Chief Morgan's eyes were serious. "Unlike other murder targets, this is a hunt. The target is the entire underworld of New York."

"A reasonable inference is that the killer's facial disfigurement may have been caused by a gang. They harbor a deep-seated hatred for the entire underworld and, after gaining power, are relentlessly seeking revenge."

Inside the club, Bai Ye gently patted the tight skin on his face, now restored to its original appearance.

After taking care of Uncle Li's gang, he returned. During the healing process of his facial skin, he discovered that the Internal Energy in his body also aided in recovery, saving him about a tenth of the healing time.

Although Uncle Li has been eliminated, I still can't stop. I've already wiped out three gangs. From now on, I'll kill one gang leader a day, and then get rid of four more to make it an even number. Bai Ye thought to himself.

After all, he couldn't just stop killing after dealing with Uncle Li. He could slow down the pace now that he had taken care of the main target.

Actually, Bai Ye wanted to wait until the fourth or fifth gang before taking action against Uncle Li, but because his alias's target was so clear, he was afraid that Uncle Li would hide.

Of course, a more comical possibility was that Uncle Li might try to coerce him into protecting him by leveraging his past.

'But the New York underworld is probably on high alert now. Getting involved again might mean running into mutants or something, which is a bit troublesome.' Bai Ye worried.

With these worries, Bai Ye picked up the one-ton weight he had been training with and began to work out again. Now, the only way forward was to improve himself.

As he focused on his training, the coach, Smith, arrived at the gym around three in the afternoon. Smith began to swing a steel rod, striking Bai Ye's back repeatedly.

Name: Bai Ye

Lifespan: 18/700 Strength: 1.7 + 0.2 Constitution: 1.7 + 0.2 Spirit: 1.6 + Charm: 1.4 + Unused Attribute Points: 0.2 ...

When the time reached five in the afternoon, Bai Ye looked at the 0.1 increase in both Strength and Constitution. He compared it to his physical condition when his actual strength had just reached 1.8.

In fact, the reason his attributes were increasing so quickly now was entirely due to the 0.2 attribute points he had added.

Based on Bai Ye's normal training speed, the time required to increase each 0.1 would theoretically only increase. However, the two additional attribute points didn't affect the experience bar, only increasing damage when fighting monsters. This made his leveling speed feel like he'd taken a double experience card, unstoppable.

'Now I can easily lift 3.4 tons with one arm. Judging from the strength, the difference between 1.8 and 1.9 should be around 0.7 tons, which is indeed more than the increase from 1.7 to 1.8, but only a little more.' 'So, the strength increase on this attribute panel should follow an arithmetic sequence, right?' Bai Ye speculated in his heart.

He glanced at the time and turned to Smith. "It's five o'clock. You can go home."

"Are we stopping so early today?" Smith asked, puzzled.

"I have something to do today, going to see a friend. You can rest early. Come earlier tomorrow, and I can teach you martial arts," Bai Ye explained.

"Tomorrow? Okay, I'll come in the morning then," Smith said excitedly, and then happily walked away.

Watching Smith's happy expression, 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 Bai Ye's level after practicing for ten days or half a month.

With his maximum aptitude of 1.2, it would take him half an hour to cultivate a single wisp of Internal Energy. He shouldn't expect any results without a year or two.

There was a way to raise him to a level where he could be of assistance: directly infuse him with Internal Energy.

According to the information regarding the Gentleman's Sword, infusing Internal Energy of the same source would result in a loss of nearly twenty percent. In other words, twenty years of Internal Energy would leave only sixteen years in the recipient.

Then, using Smith as a ready-made, living advertisement would greatly increase the value of the Purple Mist Divine Skill transactions a month later. This was a widely accessible cultivation technique; as long as everyone worked for him, he could achieve rapid success.

As for training methods for enhancing his resistance to blows, he already had a short-term goal: becoming Peter Parker, Spider-Man.

As for the long term? He had already instructed Smith to contact manufacturers of stamping machines, aiming to create one that could meet his requirements for both A-level strength and speed. However, it wouldn't be ready for at least two weeks. In the meantime, he couldn't waste any time.

While contemplating, Bai Ye took out his phone from the pocket of his clothes on the shelf and turned it on. He then found Peter's phone number and dialed it.

After a ring, the call connected. Bai Ye didn't wait for a reply and said directly, "Peter, do you have time now?"

"Bai, what do you want? I just fell on my back, and I might need some time to rest," Peter said, clutching his back on the street corner.

Just now, he'd tested his web-slinging ability on a high-rise building and messed up, falling and hitting his back, leaving him a bit winded.

"Oh, really?" Bai Ye's lips curled into a smile as he spoke into the phone. "I've got a job here that pays at least twenty thousand dollars a month, and you can work after school. Are you sure you don't want to consider it?"

"Twenty thousand a month! Bai, where are you? I'm coming right over." Trusting Bai Ye implicitly, Peter Parker didn't hesitate, immediately asking.

"It's not far from my place, at the Meins Fitness Club. Check how far it is, and you can take a taxi. I'll cover the fare."

"Meins Fitness Club? Got it. I'll be there in half an hour." Peter hung up the phone and stretched, feeling a cracking sound from his back, as if it had improved a bit.

What kind of job pays twenty thousand a month? And I haven't even asked Bai about the bank robbery. Peter Parker shook his head and thought, then set off towards the address Bai Ye had given him.

As for a taxi? He'd pass. Even though Bai Ye said he'd cover it, his family's financial situation made him instinctively frugal. With his current physical condition, he could easily reach the destination within half an hour if he ran fast.
