Night fell.
Li Wei had good habits, going to bed early and rising early.
A little after ten, he pulled 2B into the master bedroom.
Eve stayed in the spare bedroom next door, ready to protect Li Wei at any moment.
"Master."
2B's eyes seemed to glow as she looked at Li Wei. "Rest easy, Master. 2B will protect you."
"Uh..."
Li Wei knew Miss 2B had misunderstood.
She was too straightforward.
So he directly reached out and picked 2B up.
"Holy shit, 2B, you're so heavy."
Li Wei immediately regretted it.
After getting the Sandevistan installed, 2B seemed even heavier—definitely over three hundred pounds!
If it had been some delicate little fairy, she would have slapped Li Wei to death for saying that.
But 2B merely felt embarrassed. "I'm sorry, Master. 2B is too heavy."
"It's fine, it's fine. Worst case, you can lie on top."
Li Wei replied.
Looks like he would have to do the moving himself!
Meanwhile, in the other room, Red Queen passed the information to Eve.
Eve had not been resting in the first place. She was sitting by the window.
"Have they finally come?"
she said softly.
All the nearby private surveillance systems had been taken over by Red Queen.
Whenever a suspicious person appeared, Red Queen notified Eve directly.
"Be careful. The person coming is called Bullseye, a professional assassin under Kingpin."
Red Queen warned her. Through facial matching, she had already identified the intruder.
"I understand."
Eve rose to her feet. Her ordinary loungewear gradually transformed into the green skintight uniform of the Seventh Airborne Squad.
It was nanotechnology that made Li Wei green with envy.
Then she leaped straight out the window.
Fortunately, it was only the second floor. Just before she hit the ground, her body abruptly halted, and she landed in a precise crouch that dispersed all the force.
What was astonishing was that she wore heels over four inches high.
She looked back once. Red Queen knew what she was worried about and told her that with 2B there, no one could hurt her master.
Only then did Eve relax and head toward the roadside.
After all, her wish in this world was simply to protect her master.
Eve was very simple. She had never considered what she wanted to do, nor had she ever lived for herself.
Bullseye drove a black car prepared by the Fisk Group to Long Island.
Under Kingpin's orders, he had to at least teach Li Wei a lesson and make him afraid to keep helping Norman Osborn.
Since he could not win openly, Kingpin would play dirty.
Norman Osborn had surpassed him in the polls because Li Wei had been constantly canvassing for him.
New York was a city where elites gathered, and these elites were willing to believe the words of a "successful capitalist."
The elites understood one thing well: only by following in the footsteps of successful people could they become successful themselves.
They were not rednecks. If they were, Li Wei's support would only have backfired.
Kingpin had originally wanted to go straight after Norman Osborn.
But Norman Osborn knew Kingpin played dirty and immediately caved. He specifically went to Eastern Europe and hired the security force of a small country, something called Silver Sable Security Company. Its predecessor had been the Wild Pack, and it was extremely formidable.
It was meant to deter Kingpin. Naturally, Kingpin would not clash with them head-on, so he could only target Norman Osborn's allies.
For Kingpin, this tactic had never failed.
Bullseye stopped the car and put on his mask. The bullseye pattern on his forehead looked especially eerie.
Then he opened the door, got out, and draped a trench coat over himself, his expression cold.
But after only a few steps, he felt as though a venomous snake had fixed its gaze on him, making his entire body feel uneasy.
"Who's there?"
Then he sensed the gaze.
He looked left and right but found no one. Finally, he suddenly looked up.
A perfect figure stood atop a streetlamp, watching him. Backlit as she was, she appeared only as a shadow, with only her rough outline visible, yet it made Bullseye's scalp prickle.
"Who are you?"
Bullseye's body tensed, both hands already positioned behind his back.
"You shouldn't be here. If you leave now, I'll pretend I didn't see you."
Eve's somewhat cool voice carried over. She was still as kind as ever.
But to someone like Bullseye, those words only sounded like she lacked confidence.
"So it's a woman."
A wicked smile appeared on Bullseye's lips.
Then, in the next second, he launched a dishonorable sneak attack without warning.
With a flick of both hands behind his back, several silver needles shot toward Eve.
Bullseye had a talent for concealed weapons. Anything in his hands could become a lethal weapon.
The silver needles flew out so fast that no one could react.
But Eve was no ordinary human...
She was a New Human created by Mother Sphere!
In an instant, Eve sensed the danger and instinctively flipped backward.
It was as if she had triggered Perfect Dodge. She evaded every silver needle and landed lightly on the ground.
That was how superheroes always made their entrance—half-crouched!
"Then I won't hold back."
Eve's gaze turned icy. Countless Naytiba had died by her hand, and those Naytiba had all once been human. She had killed without mercy.
Bullseye was not surprised. He had encountered far too many enemies capable of dodging his concealed weapons.
Daredevil and Elektra could both knock away his projectiles.
So whenever he went into battle, he carried plenty of them.
He threw out all kinds of concealed weapons. Ordinary objects such as playing cards and coins became deadly weapons in his hands.
Eve's response to them was equally simple.
She reached up and removed the hairpin from her head. In an instant, it transformed into a one-handed sword.
Blood Edge!
Clang!
Eve reacted with incredible speed, raising her sword and knocking every concealed weapon away.
Then she accelerated and charged toward Bullseye.
Bullseye was extremely crafty. He immediately fought while retreating.
He ran backward while throwing concealed weapons, fully aware of how to kite his opponent.
Ordinary people could not touch him at all and would be tortured to death by his kiting.
He had countless concealed weapons, and as long as an enemy failed to block even one of them, their momentum would falter, allowing him to wear them down to death.
Eve frowned, unwilling to let him toy with her.
So she crouched down, and in an instant, her entire body transformed into a streak of lightning. Like a blink, she vanished from where she stood.
Berta Energy!
Bullseye, who had been happily hurling weapons, was startled. The hairs on the back of his neck stood straight up.
"Behind me!"
He instinctively flung concealed weapons behind him, but in that instant, he felt incomparably slow.
Time had slowed.
That was because Eve had activated the Sandevistan in that instant—an artificial spine!
Only Eve's speed remained unchanged. It was even faster than before. Like lightning, the Blood Edge in her hand sliced straight through Bullseye.
As time returned to normal, Bullseye's body split in two with a bang, collapsing onto the ground.
Not a drop of blood stained Eve's Blood Edge. It transformed back into a hairpin and clipped itself onto her ponytail once more.
"This is a little troublesome to deal with."
Looking at the bloody mess all over the ground, Eve felt somewhat annoyed. This was not the other Earth.
She could only leave the cleanup to Red Queen.
