#35 - Clear goals

"Wuhu!"

Gwen had been swinging around the base for a while, and Yang Le didn't stop her; it's good to familiarize herself with the web-shooters.

Soon, Gwen swung from one side of the base to the other. Facing the approaching wall, Gwen released the web in her hand, using the momentum to fly towards the wall. Just as she was about to hit it, Gwen kicked off the wall with her feet, performing a neat aerial spin before landing steadily.

Just like a well-trained gymnast.

"It seems you can use the web-shooters proficiently now." Yang Le applauded Gwen's excellent landing, even wanting to give her a perfect score.

"It feels like an extension of my arm." Gwen touched the web-shooter on her right hand, noticing a fingernail-sized screen below the launch port, but the screen was blank.

"That's the web fluid level display. It's anti-peeping; only the special lenses on the mask can see it."

Yang Le tossed the mask to Gwen. Gwen caught it and found it to be very wide, clearly not fitting her body shape, but she still put it on. Magically, after putting on the mask, it began to tighten automatically, gradually conforming to her head, and finally sticking tightly to her head.

"How is it?"

"It's quite comfortable, but I estimate I'll need some time to adjust." Gwen shook her head, obviously not yet accustomed to the feeling of being covered by the mask.

Gwen looked down at the web-shooter and found that a battery icon, like a mobile phone battery display, had indeed appeared on the screen. According to the icon, it had half of its web fluid remaining.

"How to increase the web fluid with the limited capacity is indeed a difficult subject. At least Ling Jingguai hasn't thought of any good solutions yet."

Yang Le tossed Gwen another fingernail-sized white capsule.

"This is a web capsule. Although the capacity isn't large, you don't have to worry. The web-shooter has an automatic loading function. It will automatically load when the web fluid is low. You just need to make sure there are capsules in the magazine, as well as spare web fluid for emergencies. Under normal circumstances, you won't run out of web fluid, unless you forget to load it."

"The loading port is on the side. It can hold five capsules in total, three of which are spares, and one is for emergencies. You just need to be responsible for loading, and the launcher will automatically allocate them."

"That's quite intelligent." Gwen couldn't help but praise.

"No, it's just a fool-proof loading design. If one port can't fit it, it automatically squeezes into the next port."

"That statement will ruin your profound image in my heart, Dr. Q." Gwen took off the mask and shook her hair.

"There's no way around it. Ling Jingguai still has its limits. If I had Xiao Qibing here, I could solve most of the existing problems with Xiao Qibing and Ling Jingguai."

Looking at the sighing Yang Le, Gwen couldn't help but ask.

"What about your gene decoder? Can't you use it to unlock all the permissions of the Omnitrix?"

"The decoder is still decoding, and the progress is okay. It has been unlocked to 55%."

Logically speaking, this decoding speed is already fast, but Yang Le's mood is exactly the same as when using Xunlei; he feels slow even if it's just one percent away.

"Let's not talk about this for now. The most important thing now is the Hand." Yang Le rubbed his temples, deciding not to think about sad things for now.

"Like I said before, although the Hand has blatantly revealed their identity, we know nothing else about them. And I also used a shapeshifter to search the internet."

Yang Le couldn't help but sigh as he said this, and continued.

"But these old antiques seem like they don't know how to use computers. I even touched S.H.I.E.L.D., but I didn't find any useful information about the Hand."

"What is S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Gwen asked like a student.

"Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, abbreviated as S.H.I.E.L.D. You can understand it as a secret organization that protects the country, like in the movies."

"Even this kind of secret national organization doesn't have information about the Hand?" Gwen looked at Yang Le in confusion.

"There is some, but S.H.I.E.L.D.'s database only indicates that the Hand is an ordinary assassin organization, with at most some religious worship. It seems that the Hand is very good at disguising themselves on the surface."

After listening to Yang Le's words, Gwen couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. After all, the Hand sounded impeccable, and even national organizations didn't have their real information.

"Is the Hand really that 'invincible'?" Gwen said dejectedly.

"Did you just say 'invincible'?" Yang Le suddenly struck a strange pose, which made Gwen stunned.

"Originally, I was also a little desperate in the face of the Hand's impregnable walls, but some casual conversations gave me direction."

As Yang Le spoke, he took out a folded newspaper. Gwen took the newspaper and unfolded it, and it was indeed the old friend, the Daily Bugle.

"Look at the headline."

"Evil Lawyer Matt Murdock Wins Again?" Gwen read the content aloud, then asked in confusion.

The latest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!

"I remember that this lawyer's reputation doesn't seem very good, but what does that mean?"

"The key lies in Matt Murdock himself." Yang Le pointed to Matt's photo on the newspaper with a beaming smile.

"I told you, Gwen, I come from another universe. I happen to know some secrets of the multiverse, and in my understanding, Matt Murdock has another name—Daredevil."

"Daredevil?" Gwen frowned. "That name doesn't sound like a good person."

"On the contrary, in another universe, he is a very good person. I even admire him a little, and his nemesis is the Hand."

"You mean he will have clues about the Hand?" Gwen looked at Yang Le in surprise, but after not being happy for a few seconds, Gwen said suspiciously.

"But what he does doesn't seem like something a good person should do. Are you sure he will help us?"

"Gwen, I said before that parallel universes are mostly the same with minor differences. This is obviously a slightly different Matt, and he is also our only breakthrough now."

Yang Le was actually not very confident. He can only pin his hopes on the Hand, which is bound to Daredevil, being bound together in this universe as well.

"Then shall we go now?" Gwen seemed a little impatient, after all, there was finally a clear direction.

"No need to rush. It's still early. Although Matt has two legs, he won't disappear."

Yang Le handed another web-shooter to Gwen.

"Before that, you still have a lot of preparation work to do, and night is the masked hero's main stage."
