Marvel: The Twelve Spells

December 24th, Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve.

At the beginning of the lanterns, colorful lanterns light up all the streets in New York City, and the whole world is in a Christmas atmosphere.

The glittering Christmas tree, the snowflake stickers in the cake shop, the amiable Santa Claus at the door of the store, the eye-catching Sale sign in the mall, and the Christmas songs that are always echoing in my ears...

The most crowded place on Christmas Eve is not the dance floor or the busy streets, but the open area of ​​the church. Especially in this era of rising superpowers, social unrest, and disorder, the way of celebrating Christmas Eve in church services is becoming more and more popular.

Zhongcheng Institute of Science and Technology is an aristocratic school, and the church built in it is also magnificent and exquisite. Both in terms of floor space and craftsmanship, it exceeds the churches in many universities.

The red brick walls, white stone pillars, blue-grey slate roof, and the huge and full onion dome on top command the four wings of tent roofs of different sizes, forming a master-slave layout.

Under the Gothic arches, Luo Xia stood at the door of the church waiting for Gwen to worship.

On Christmas Eve, the school's chapel is open to students, staff and nearby residents, but Rocha does not enter one.

Rocha does not believe in Jesus because he is Satan.

Gwen has no objection to this. Everyone should have freedom of belief.

Inside the church, believers pray that God can purify the world of evil, such as taking away the devil!

Of course, some people are unhappy watching superheroes. For example, Gwen, who has strong hearing, heard the people next to her whispering prayers to make Spider-Woman disappear...

As usual, Gwen's prayers were simple, for the health of her family and friends, but this year there was an extra one, about her boyfriend Rorsha.

Next is the Mass activity. Mass is a kind of liturgy of the church. The Holy Sacrifice of Mass is the most noble sacrificial ritual of Catholicism. The body and blood of Jesus Christ are consecrated on the altar and become the real sacrifice. It is a reenactment of the cross sacrifice. Therefore, it is a Catholic religious ceremony to commemorate the sacrifice of Jesus.

Gwen walked against the flow of people towards the exit of the church. She did not continue to participate in the climax of the Mass. Luo Xia was still waiting for her outside.

It has snowed heavily in New York in recent days, and the whole city is covered in silver. Not long after Luo Xia stood under the arch, a layer of snowflakes fell on her shoulders.

Suddenly a pair of warm hands covered his eyes from behind, and Gwen lowered her voice and said from behind: "Guess who I am?"

"Hannah? Betty? Mary Jane?" Luo Xia guessed seriously, "Who is that? Anna? Ivanka? Susan..."

Luo Xia was still guessing, but the smile on Gwen's face had diminished a bit. She was dissatisfied and squeezed Luo Xia's shoulder with a little strength. The pain made Luo Xia quickly activate the horse charm.

"Murder?" Luo Xia hugged Gwen and grabbed her delicate neck with one hand. Luo Xia shook her head, and Gwen's head also shook. "Miss Spider, don't you know how powerful you are?"

"snort!"

Gwen turned her face sideways and gave Luo Xia a roll of her eyes, expressing her dissatisfaction with Luo Xia for just announcing so many girls' names.

The two walked along the snow-covered cobblestone path outside the school.

Luo Xia wore a long black windbreaker. He took out a white knitted hat from the pocket of the windbreaker and put it on Gwen. To enter the church, you need to wear formal clothes and take off your hat and crown.

Gwen wore a red skirt with white edges, paired with flesh-colored stockings and deerskin boots, with a graceful figure. Gwen put one hand into Rosha's trench coat pocket and held it with him.

Gwen used her other hand to adjust the knitted hat on her head. Her face was rosy in the cold weather, which made her look a little cute. Paired with her smooth blond hair, it was even more stunning.

"Please, I don't even know those girls!" Luo Xia said helplessly.

Gwen was still struggling with this issue along the way. It seemed that Spider-Woman was just a little girl.

"And Hannah?" Gwen caught the loophole.

"Uh..." Luo Xia could only blink innocently.

"What did you just say in front of God?" Luo Xia began to change the subject.

"You don't know Hannah either?" Gwen reluctantly...

Gwen stood alone at the school gate playing with her mobile phone, waiting for Luo Xia to drive the car.

Suddenly, a black Maserati slid slowly across the snow and stopped in front of Gwen.

Gwen frowned slightly. It was normal for her appearance to attract some wild bees and butterflies. Fortunately, Luo Xia went to drive, otherwise someone would definitely suffer!

Gwen was about to walk away, but the passenger door slowly lowered, revealing a charming and charming face.

"Miss Gwen, do you want a ride?" Natasha said with a smile.

Gwen was slightly shocked, it turned out to be Black Widow... She had seen this SHIELD agent on the day of the Demon Project.

Gwen was a little confused, but what was Black Widow doing with her? Or what would SHIELD do with a high school graduate? Could it be that they found out her identity as Spider-Woman?

"Thank you, my boyfriend is on the way." Gwen shook her head and refused, "We know each other?"

The Maserati cab door opened and Captain America got out of the car.

"Although this may be a bit intrusive, we really don't have a good way to contact you, Miss Spider." Captain America said, "Natasha suggested contacting you via email, but I rejected it."

Since Captain America was rejected by Tony, Hill summoned the power of SHIELD to find out the true identity of Spider-Woman. With the work of SHIELD's intelligence department, this task was not difficult to complete and took a week. , they determined the identity of Spider-Woman...a graduate of Midtown Institute of Technology, Gwen Stacy.

"What's the matter...Captain?" Gwen said, covering her face. Since her identity was exposed, she had no need to continue acting. In her eyes, Captain America was also a superhero worthy of admiration. "There is someone threatening the world again." Is it safe? 'Devil's Plan 2.0' is here again?"

"No one has threatened the security of the world yet." Natasha also got out of the car, and she extended her hand to Gwen, "Your clothes match Christmas well!"

"Thank you." Gwen shook hands with the agent in front of her politely.

"Or it would be more accurate to say that someone is threatening the security of the world at any time," Captain America walked around the front of the car, "You know what I'm talking about."

"Devil..." Gwen said without thinking.

"Yes, that's right, that's the guy!" Natasha shrugged, leaning against the car.

"Do you know about the Anti-Demon Alliance?" Captain America asked again.

"Well... there should be no one in New York who doesn't know about the Anti-Demon Alliance. Captain, you personally announced the establishment in front of the world's media." Gwen seemed to understand their purpose.

"Yes, he is still wearing that uniform! He took the solemn oath..." Natasha also joked.

"Today is Christmas Eve, and it may be the last Christmas Eve for mankind. No one knows whether tonight in some corner of the world, the devil is brewing the next conspiracy to destroy mankind... We all know that he has this ability."

"We are here to invite you to join the Anti-Demon Alliance...Spider-Woman!" Captain America said straight to the point.

"Find a place for us to chat? Is it convenient?" Natasha looked around and said, "This is not the place to talk."

Suddenly there was the roar of a car engine at the intersection, and a Ford sedan accelerated towards them.

Captain America's eyes were full of surprise, and Natasha prepared for battle. The two thought they were terrorists who came to attack them.

Gwen smiled silently at the two people's reactions.

"It seems inconvenient, my boyfriend is here." Gwen said while looking at the Ford that was still accelerating.

"The speed is seventy kilometers per hour, and the braking distance is about thirty meters. In snowy weather, this distance will become longer, but your boyfriend has shown no signs of slowing down." Natasha said quickly, "I hope he has money to pay for my repairs." fare."

After saying that, Natasha turned around, as if she couldn't bear to see the scene where her car was hit by a rear-end collision.

Gwen just kept smiling, and she said lightly: "He can't afford to pay for the fact that he still has me."

There was a heartbreaking sound of the car braking, and two dark marks were left on the road where the Ford passed. Something Natasha didn't expect happened. The car, which was traveling at 70 miles per hour, actually stopped within ten meters. Stopped! There is still more than two meters away from her car!

"Modified cars?"

"Maybe..." Gwen nodded.

Luo Xia pressed the horn and motioned for Gwen to get in the car. But Gwen stood there and waved, asking Luo Xia to get out of the car and pass over.

Gwen is determined to lead Rorsha to become a righteous superhero. Now that she has met Captain America, the most positive superhero in the world, she will definitely not let go of this opportunity for Rorsha and Captain America to get acquainted.

Luo Xia looked at Cap and Natasha outside the car, and he couldn't help but smile. He opened the car door and walked towards the three of them.

Captain America looked up and down at Luo Xia, who was walking towards him. Luo Xia was dressed very formally, wearing a full black suit and a long windbreaker, and custom-made leather shoes. He walked calmly and had a wanton smile on his face. This sense of elegance reminds Captain America of an acquaintance...

Natasha's eyes flashed brightly, "Miss Gwen, your boyfriend is quite handsome..."

"Really? Thanks for the compliment." Gwen responded with a smile, "I think so too."

Gwen came forward and was about to take Luo Xia's hand, but Luo Xia hugged her waist first.

"My boyfriend! I don't need an introduction, right? I believe you have all read my information." Gwen said with a smile, and she introduced Luo Xia again, "Miss Natasha, and..."

"Captain America!" Luo Xia interrupted, and he took the initiative to extend his right hand, "I also watch the news."

Captain America stretched out his hand, and the two shook hands immediately. Natasha on the side took the initiative to extend her hand.

"Captain and Miss Natasha are here to invite me to join the Anti-Demon Alliance." Looking at the surprised expressions of the two, Gwen continued to explain, "Rorsha knows about me, the superhero Spider-Woman and so on..."

"Wow! Your relationship is so good." Natasha looked at Luo Xia and said, "How does it feel? It would be so cool to have a superhero as your girlfriend... If it were me, it would be so cool!"

"Well...it's pretty good." Luo Xia replied.

"What do you mean it's pretty good?"

Gwen was a little dissatisfied. She looked at Luo Xia with an expression that seemed to say I'll give you another chance to organize your words.

"It's great! Having Spider-Woman as your girlfriend should be what many people dream of, right?" Luo Xia said slowly, "But it's okay for me, because when I met Gwen, she wasn't Spider-Woman yet. Xia, what I like is Gwen, and it has nothing to do with whether she is a superhero or not."

"Wow..." Natasha looked at Luo Xia with admiration. She asked Gwen, "Are all students today so sexy? Are there any boys in the class who are as good as Luo Xia? Are they older? 's agents also need to solve the single problem."

"If Miss Natasha wants a relationship, I think there will be many outstanding men flocking to her..." Gwen also said with a smile.

"Let's talk about business, shall we? Are Miss Gwen and Mr. Rorschach interested in visiting the headquarters of the Anti-Demon Alliance? We can discuss it in detail then." Captain America said seriously.

He did not interrupt the topic just now. The relationship between Rorsha and Gwen seemed to be very good. He even knew that Gwen was Spider-Woman. Gwen did not even tell her father the news...

However, Captain America's impression of Rorschach is somewhat negative. He drives fast on icy and snowy roads to show off his driving skills, behaves frivolously, and even talks some sweet words.

As an ordinary person's boyfriend, he is qualified and even excellent, but his girlfriend is Spider-Woman.

Captain America has always had a good opinion of Spider-Woman, as she has strong abilities. The most important thing is that she was born into a police family and has correct values ​​and a strong sense of justice and responsibility.

But obviously none of this has anything to do with him, and the purpose of his trip is just to invite Spider-Woman to join the Anti-Demon Alliance.

"Has this matter been finalized?" Luo Xia asked curiously, "Gwen, have you agreed to join the Anti-Demon Alliance?"

"No, not yet." Gwen shook her head and said, "For me, this is a big thing, and I still need to consider it! So Luo Xia, what is your opinion?"

Gwen's words made both Captain America and Natasha feel a little bad. No boyfriend would tolerate his girlfriend joining a violent organization and fighting against such a powerful enemy as the devil every day, right? It will even have an impact on him in the future. It is not unheard of for criminals to take revenge on superhero families.

If Gwen joins the Anti-Demon Alliance, both the danger and the impact on life will be huge.

Gwen valued Luo Xia's opinion very much. After all, Luo Xia was the only person around her who knew her identity. She could only discuss these matters with Luo Xia.

"As long as it's your choice, I support it." Luo Xia's answer surprised both Captain America and Natasha, "But Captain, what I want to ask is, is the world really in such a critical condition that it needs a high school student to save it? A member of the Anti-Demon Alliance? It sounds like a real job, but the next part of Gwen's life is supposed to be college."

"This has nothing to do with age, but ability." Captain America said seriously, "Miss Gwen has great power, and we need her to join us. For example, Miss Gwen played a key role in the last 'Devil Plan'. Without her, more people would die, and we might not even be able to stop the 'evil plan'."
