#149 - The Fantastic Twins and the Spider

Putting down his backpack, Yang Le raised his hands and slowly retreated, trying to appear as harmless as possible. However, a crystalline strongman who was about two meters tall didn't exactly scream 'friendly'.

What's more, Yang Le was covered in blood and various human organs from his previous rampage. A normal child would probably have fainted from fright.

But clearly, the two children in the bushes weren't normal. Not only were they not panicked, but they were even discussing the situation.

"What should we do, Franklin?" the older-looking girl asked the boy beside her.

"I think we should leave, Valeria," Franklin said, looking at the girl.

"No matter who he is, we don't know him, and we can't risk contacting him."

"But he's already found us," Valeria pointed out, gesturing towards Yang Le in the distance.

"If he wanted to attack us, wouldn't he have already done it?"

"Maybe it's because he recognizes us," Franklin guessed.

"Maybe he's afraid of my powers, so he hasn't approached us rashly."

"Impossible, Franklin," Valeria refuted her brother's guess.

"Your powers disappeared a long time ago. Not only that, but you haven't grown in years."

"What if he doesn't know?" Franklin quickly argued.

Just like Valeria said, since the zombie crisis broke out, he not only lost his powers, but even his height hadn't changed in years. Now, Valeria was already taller than him, about a head taller.

Loss of powers, height disparity, and not even being as smart as his genius sister, made him feel like he was losing his older brother's authority.

"Give it a rest, Franklin," Valeria rolled her eyes at her brother.

"Instead of guessing wildly, we should contact him. Do you know where Nana is?"

"She's in the blood nest not far from here," Franklin said, glancing at the locator on his body.

"Are you serious? Uncle Peter will scold us to death."

"We're already going to get scolded for running off on our own," Valeria held a uniquely shaped gun in her hand.

"Instead of worrying about that, you should call Nana over first, and then think about how to negotiate with him. What if he knows something about the zombies?"

After speaking, she stood up and walked towards Yang Le. Of course, judging from her white-knuckled grip on the gun, she wasn't as calm as she appeared.

"Hey! Wait," Franklin also quickly stood up, trying to pull his sister back, but obviously, his short legs couldn't keep up with Valeria's long legs. Helpless, he could only follow.

Valeria quickly walked to the backpack full of food. She stopped, but she didn't pick up the backpack on the ground. Instead, she shouted at Yang Le.

"Hey! What's your name?"

"Yang Le," Yang Le didn't care about revealing his name, so he said it without hesitation.

"Yang Le?" Valeria repeated the name in a low voice, finding it difficult to pronounce.

"Are you Chinese?"

"Don't I look like it?" Yang Le tilted his head, his crystalline body creaking.

"What do you think?" Valeria frowned as she looked at Yang Le's crystallized body, reminded of the White Queen.

"Are you a mutant?" Franklin asked.

"You could say that," Yang Le nodded.

Although he could reveal his name, Yang Le felt it was necessary to keep his abilities a secret. After all, a certain character, who was supposedly extremely intelligent, revealed his teammate's abilities, leading to the teammate being instantly killed without even making a move.

"Stop talking about me, what about you? Who are you?"

"My name is..." Valeria was about to make up a name when she heard a familiar shout from the distant forest.

"Franklin! Valeria!"

Valeria's face fell. It was all over; she had been backstabbed by her teammate.

Yang Le's expression didn't change when he heard the voice from afar. Not only were the twins familiar with the voice, but he was as well. After all, he had seen many versions of the voice's owner.

'The latest novels are first published on 6_9_shu_ba_._com!'

"Is that them calling you?" Yang Le looked at the two. The siblings had no choice but to nod with bitter faces.

This was unexpected for Yang Le. He didn't expect to meet the children of the Sinister Minister here, the famous Marvel Universe characters—the Wonder Twins. Just now, the child was slandering their father in their heart.

'But why is Franklin so short?' Yang Le frowned. Even if girls developed earlier, this was too exaggerated. Franklin looked four or five years younger than Valeria.

Soon, as a rustling sound came from the forest, a figure that was both haggard and familiar to Yang Le emerged from the trees. The person was none other than Spider-Man—Peter Parker.

"Little F, Little V!" Peter was overjoyed to see the Wonder Twins, but only for a moment, because he saw Yang Le not far from the twins.

As we mentioned earlier, a crystalline person covered in organs was hardly friendly. Relying on his powerful physical abilities, Peter ran to the twins in a few steps, protecting them behind him, holding a tube in his hand, and looking at Yang Le warily.

"Who are you?" Peter didn't give Yang Le a friendly look, his expression fierce. It was a little complicated for Yang Le to see this expression on a face that was the same as his friend's.

"Yang Le, my friend," Yang Le said helplessly, introducing himself again. Speaking of which, how many times had he introduced himself to Peter Parker?

"Friend? I don't remember knowing you," Peter said sternly.

"You don't know me, but I know you," Yang Le said, taking out a photo from the flying wheel, covering it with crystals, and throwing it one or two meters in front of Peter.

Peter turned his gaze to the photo. The contents of it surprised him, because there were three of him, Aunt May and Mary Jane, and even Gwen, but she looked very young, about the same age as Valeria, and some people he didn't recognize.

This photo was a family photo taken by Yang Le in the Ultimate Universe. He thought it was the best proof of his identity.

"You're from another universe," Valeria's nickname wasn't for nothing; she could see what Yang Le was trying to say at a glance.

"Yes, Miss Smarty," Yang Le said, dispelling the transformation. As long as it wasn't manually operated, the Omnitrix really looked like a mutant using their powers.

"Little V, how are you sure he's from another universe?" Peter asked.
