Chapter 64 - Chapter 51: The Slums (5)

Sephiro Lukin's voice cut through the tense atmosphere like a blade as he addressed Conrad Hilton with chilling certainty. "So that's what I am going to do, Conrad Hilton. And you will die along with your son tomorrow," he said bluntly, showing no remorse in his tone.

Conrad Hilton, despite the danger looming over him, stayed surprisingly calm. "Even if I die, there are still many people out there just like me," he said firmly, his tone showing he wasn't backing down.

Sephiro Lukin's lips twisted into a wicked smile at Conrad's defiance. "Oh, really?" he sneered, his eyes gleaming with evil intent. "You think so?"

The door burst open, and a henchman barged in, carrying an unconscious 15-year-old boy. "Boss Sephiro, this is Chris Hilton. Boss Jon told me to bring him here," the henchman explained, his voice trembling slightly as he struggled to support Chris's weight.

Sephiro nodded approvingly. "Very well. Good job. Tell your boss that he's done well," he acknowledged before turning his attention back to Conrad. "Where is the Vibranium that I told him to retrieve?" he asked sharply.

The henchman, named Anton, said. "Follow me, Boss Sephiro. I'll show you the way," he offered, gesturing for Sephiro to follow him.

 

"Good. Lead the way," Sephiro commanded, his gaze fixed on Conrad. With one last look at the father and son, he delivered a parting message. "Enjoy your time together while it lasts," his words filled with malice. "But remember, it won't last long," he added, before turning to leave.

As Sephiro and Anton departed, leaving Conrad and Chris alone in the dimly lit room, feeling the weight of Sephiro's threat. Conrad, a man who had manipulated and exploited others for his own gain, now faced the consequences. Meanwhile, Chris slept soundly, unaware of the danger. 

Conrad felt guilty as he watched Chris sleep soundly. Even though Chris was angry with him, Conrad still worried about his safety. "Chris, wake up," Conrad whispered, gently shaking Chris's shoulder.

 

Chris groggily opened his eyes, blinking against the dim light in the room. Confusion washed over him as he struggled to make sense of his surroundings. "What's going on? Where am I?" he asked, his voice tinged with confusion.

 

Conrad sighed, trying to find the right words to make Chris understand. "Chris, it's because of me—because I'm rich and have influence—that some bad people want to hurt us," he confessed, his voice filled with sadness. "This man, Sephiro Lukin, thinks I'm a problem because of how much I help the government

Chris's eyes widened in shock as he processed his father's words. "What do you mean?" he asked, his voice trembling with fear and confusion. "I was just with Teacher Thomas, and then suddenly everything went dark... Now I'm here with you? What's going on? 

 

Meanwhile

As I swung through the vast slum base, my senses on high alert, a wave of unease washed over me as I detected a disturbance in the chi energy around me. "What's going on?" I muttered to myself, feeling a tingling sensation from my spider-sense, warning me of danger ahead.

As I focused my chi, I sensed the unmistakable feeling of someone's life force fading away, their chi weakening until it disappeared entirely. "No-no-no," I murmured, my heart sinking at the realization. "This chi died... I can't sense it anymore."

Driven by a sense of urgency, I swung through this base, following the trail of chi energy toward the location where Mark and Emily were being held captive. But just as I got closer to their location, a sudden realization hit me hard. "Someone died again!" I blurted out.

As I arrived at the scene, my eyes quickly scanned the area, taking in the sight of Mark, Emily, and the other captives, their hands bound with handcuffs. Surrounding them were the enemies, their chi signatures pulsating with a little bit evil. Without hesitation, Quickly, I threw smoke bombs from my inventory to obscure their vision

As the smoke filled the air, making it hard to see, I trusted my chi sense to guide me. With surprise on my side, I moved quickly and quietly, my agility helping me get close to the bad guys.

With each strike, I moved with precision and speed, my fists delivering a barrage of powerful blows. I unleashed a combination of martial arts techniques, utilizing my enhanced strength and reflexes to gain the upper hand.

The enemies, caught off guard by my sudden attack, struggled to defend themselves against my relentless strikes. They were no match for my combat skills, each one falling before me as I effortlessly neutralized them one after another.

Using my organic webbing, I trapped the enemies, securing them tightly and making them unable to move. As each opponent was caught, I swiftly moved to the next, my movements smooth and deliberate as I continued to advance.

As the smoke cleared, the last enemy stood before me, an African American man. Before confronting him, I quickly scanned my surroundings.

As I looked at the horrible scene, my heart sank at the sight of the three deceased individuals. The brutality of their deaths was beyond comprehension, and I felt a surge of anger and sorrow wash over me.

The woman's body lay mutilated, her face showing expression of pain and horror. Her injuries were so severe that she was barely recognizable, her features obscured by the sheer brutality of the attack. I couldn't help but feel really sad for her, wondering what terrible things she went through before she died.

The first man's body showed signs of extreme trauma, his face disfigured and his eyes bulging from their sockets. It was a horrifying sight, reminiscent of something out of a gore movie. I felt sick and furious at the pointless violence that had ended his life.

The second man had been shot in the head; his life cut short by a single bullet. His body lay motionless on the ground, I couldn't help but feel sad for him, wondering what events had led to his sudden and tragic death.

As I surveyed the scene before me, suddenly the African American man spoke up. "I know you," he said, his voice cutting through the tension. "You're that Spider-Man guy, aren't you?"

 

"Why must you do this, huh?" I demanded, my voice filled with frustration and anger.

 

The African American man looked at me with confusion. "Huh?" he started to say, but before he could finish, I swung a powerful punch, hitting him hard in the face and sending him crashing to the ground.

"Why must you do this to them?" I yelled; my voice full of anger as I released my frustration through my actions.
