Chapter 126: The New Reward
“Did you know that Iron Man challenged Phantom Kid last night?”
Gwen suddenly asked.
“Huh? Yeah, I do. What are you asking this for?”
Peter was taken aback, then nodded.
“You usually like Iron Man so much, I thought you would go to the Stark Expo.”
Gwen smiled at Peter.
“Actually, I wanted to go to the expo, but my dad didn’t let me go.”
Having said this, Gwen pursed her mouth and looked very dissatisfied.
“Eh?”
At Gwen’s reaction, Peter was surprised.
“Do you like Iron Man too?”
Peter asked excitedly.
“Not really.”
Gwen shook his head.
“Then are you a fan of Batman?”
Peter wondered, there are only two heroes New Yorkers admire most: one is Captain America, who has been dead for many years, and the other is Iron Man.
In fact, Tony was already very popular with New Yorkers before he became Iron Man.
As for street vigilantes, like Daredevil. Basically, they do not reach the eyes of the public.
New Yorkers who like Batman, who has disappeared for eight years, are not absent, but they are generally very old.
The most familiar to children has always been Captain America, whose influence has spread to every corner of the United States and has never diminished after so many years.
Many videos of Captain America back in the days have now become standard equipment for school education and are deeply loved by children.
They vowed that they would never forget Captain America for the rest of their lives.
Especially when students are detained in class

In short, Peter took for granted that Gwen would like a certain superhero.
After all, these elementary school students are unlikely to be interested in science and technology exhibitions.
However, Gwen still shook her head. In fact, she didn’t even know that Batman existed in the world before, because George would never tell her heroic stories.
“I want to meet Phantom Kid.”
Gwen smiled brightly at Peter.
“Wh
 what?”
Peter stammered, he couldn’t believe what he had just heard.
If he remembers correctly, Gwen’s father is the chief of the NYPD, right? How could she admire a thief?
“I see, you
 you want to catch Phantom Kid
 right?”
Peter laughed and tried to make sense of what he heard.
“If Mr. Stacey knew, he would be very happy.”
“Why would I want to catch Phantom Kid? He’s not a bad guy.”
Gwen’s big smart eyes stared at Peter, who couldn’t help but stare back at her blankly.
“But he is a
 a thief
”
Peter’s voice was getting lower and lower, but he didn’t know for sure whether Phantom Kid was a bad person.
The morality that Aunt May taught him made him firmly believe that the guy was a bad person. However, the person who saved him yesterday was Phantom Kid in the flesh.
Peter must admit that Kid has a kind heart and handsome appearance. It’s really hard for people to hate such a person.
“Aren’t all the things stolen by Phantom Kid returned to others in the end? Even if some of them haven’t been returned, the money generated on their behalf was donated. In addition to that, he had never hurt anyone else. Isn’t such a thief a good person?”
Gwen frowned her lovely eyebrows. She didn’t like Peter’s early remarks. And for that, she was as staid as her father.
“Uh
 you are right.”
Seeing Gwen frown, Peter immediately surrendered, agreeing with Gwen’s point of view.
“I made a decision!”
Gwen suddenly clenched her fist and said excitedly.
“I want to join Phantom Kid’s fan club, do you want to follow along?”
Peter was about to say that he had already joined Iron Man’s fan club, but looking at the small fist Gwen was holding tightly

Peter ended up nodding very sincerely.
«There isn’t any rule that prevents a person from joining more than one fan club only anyway »
Peter thought in his mind.
In fact, Gwen is very weak and can’t threaten Peter.
But no one knows why, at that moment, Peter seemed to imagine seeing Aunt May appear instead of Gwen, urging him to quickly agree to Gwen’s request

Inside a rented house in Manhattan’s Chinatown.
Mathison and Charlie looked at each other and nodded in unison.
Mathison took out a mashed potato that has a rectangular shape and ate it in three or two bites.
Charlie removed the bow-tie voice changer and threw it aside, and then started barking at Mathison.
Mathison: “
”
Seeing that Mathison didn’t even blink, Charlie put on the bow again and asked curiously.
“Well, did you get it?”
Mathison: “
”
Charlie gradually felt that the atmosphere was not quite right.
“Did you understand what I have just now? In other words, this thing works right
”
Mathison: “
”
Charlie’s forehead dripped beans of cold sweat.
After staring at Charlie for a long time, Mathison finally withdrew his gaze back.
“Charlie, how about going to have dog fondue tonight?”
Charlie: “!”
“I warn you not to go too far, I am about to report on your dogs’ abuse behaviour
”
Mathison narrowed his eyes, “You remember it well again.”
Charlie swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and he was now very sure that Mathison must have understood his bark now.
That thing is really so evil, it allows humans to communicate with dogs without barriers.
What happened now also started after Mathison disabled Ivan.
Mathison quickly left the exposition after he was relieved of his berserk state, and returned to Chinatown after going around dozens of blocks in various costumes.
Then came the customary collection of rewards.
“Stolen Treasure: Mountain of Light”
“Treasure Value: A”
“Difficulty: Hard”
“Magnificence: Rehearsal A / Official C – Combined B”
This time, the magnificence level has undergone a major change from the past. After all, from the prior rehearsal phase to the official scene of action, the risk of the subsequent action has increased countless times.
It is difficult to guarantee the magnificence of the rehearsal, so it is a reasonable model to calculate every phase separately and then integrate them together.
“Final Rating: A”
“Reward: Translation Konjac”
“Translation Konjac: From the world of “Doraemon”, it is a universal translation artifact. When using it, you only need to eat it in front of the target to take effect. It allows users to understand anyone, whether they are earthlings or other species in the universe, such as aliens. It enables them to communicate with each other normally. Note that the effect is not only effective for languages but also for any other sounds.”
Nice one!
Seeing this reward, Mathison didn’t know what to say.
This tool is a double-edged sword; it is useful, but at the same time weak!
There is a probability of 80% that Mathison will follow Star Lord’s lead in the future and go to other planets to promote the arts of Earth. But instead of promoting dancing, like Star Lord did, Mathison chooses magic.
By then, the Translation Konjac will be very useful.
But the reason it is weak is

Isn’t the lingua franca of the American comic/movie universe simply English?
