Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 121: Shaken Faith

BONUS Chapter brought to you by Morimari and AstaX, enjoy!

After a while, Mathison walked out from behind the wall calmly.

But this time, he had changed into the clothes of the police officer. 

“Huh?” 

Just as Mathison was about to leave this place, a small black shadow flashed in front of him. 

It ran into the front corner. 

“That seems to be a… kid?” 

Mathison was stunned for a moment. 

The police officer was not looking for “Kid,” but was really looking for a kid? 

“No, it’s not the right time to think about this! Whose kid is that and how dare he remain here?” 

The police officer who was chasing this kid was knocked out by him. 

In case something happened, wouldn’t it mean that he had indirectly killed a child? 

Although after arriving in the cruel world of American Comics, Mathison has acclimated to the situation. He no longer minds getting his hands stained with blood. However, this does not mean that Mathison can comfortably accept the death of innocent people in front of his eyes. 

Especially the death of a child! He is not even an adult who is not afraid of death… No, not even a teenager. If it was a reckless teen, Mathison can barely convince himself to let him deal with the consequences of his actions; It is Iron Man’s and Batman’s job to protect this person. 

The case is different when it comes to a child who is not even ten years old. 

It is precisely because of this that he has been so active in helping the police defeat the mechanical soldiers before, instead of fleeing directly during the chaos. 

“Damn you bratty kid.” 

Without the slightest hesitation, Mathison quickly chased after him. 

“Who the hell is this kid, how come he has such an agile body?” 

When Mathison chased him around the corner, he saw a scene that shocked him. 

The young kid started leaping over the wreckage one by one like flowing water. 

Looking back, when he found that the “policeman” was still chasing behind him, the child’s speed increased again! 

The average middle school student might not be able to catch up to him.. 

Peter found another wall with a big hole at the bottom in front of him and tried to do the same thing again. 

In Mathison’s vision, the kid in front of him not only has sufficiently developed motor nerves but also has a very unique talent. 

He is very good at avoiding all kinds of subtle dangers. 

When Peter was about to hit the wall, he started accelerating instead, and then slid smoothly inside the hole. 

“I’m going to find Iron Man, no one can stop me.” 

Peter was firm in his conviction. He put his hand on his belly, which was a little bulgy. 

He hid an Iron Man mask under his shirt so as not to fall off during the run. 

He looked back at the wall proudly. 

“They cannot even catch a child. It’s no wonder that these policemen are helpless against Phantom Kid. If it were Iron Man, he would have definitely been able to catch Kid.” 

God knows how George would feel if he heard that even a child was questioning the ability of the New York police. 

“Nice movements! I’m afraid the average cop can’t catch this kid.” 

Peter’s actions aroused Mathison’s interest. 

“It’s a pity that it makes no difference to me whether this wall exists.” 

Mathison rushed up with a few strides, stepped on the wall and jumped over it with ease. 

“What!” 

Peter looked at the overturned Mathison with a shocked look. If the policeman used this ability, he would have been caught in the beginning. 

“Puff……” 

Suddenly, a slightly strange sound emerged, and Mathison’s expression suddenly condensed. 

This sound seemed to be made when the steel battlesuit thrusters were activated, but unlike Tony’s suit, the noise it made was much louder. 

And the sound was getting louder and louder. 

“It’s Whiplash!” 

Mathison looked up, and saw a long tail flame cut out of the distant sky, landing in the direction of his side! 

Peter didn’t have the mind to pay attention to the changes in the outside world. He didn’t know why Mathison suddenly raised his head. He only knew that he had to run away now, otherwise it would really be too late. 

“No, Whiplash has moved the angle of landing, his target is the kid!” 

When Mathison looked down quickly, Peter had already ran a long distance. 

“Is this guy really not afraid of getting killed?” 

Mathison was suddenly out of breath, and the speed of Whiplash was very fast. He could barely spot Whiplash in the sky earlier, but now, his overall outline can be seen clearly. 

It is estimated that he will fall to the ground in a few seconds. 

Mathison rushed towards Peter with all his strength. He didn’t expect that after only two steps, a part of Whiplash armor appeared in his field of vision. 

When he was about to land, Whiplash did not slow down. 

“No, I can’t keep up like this!” 

Before he could think about it, Mathison instantly controlled his heartbeat and started to accelerate, breaking the 400 beats per minute. 

“Bullet Time, open!” 

“Boom!” 

The heavy whip armor smashed into the ground at a very high speed, smashing a huge pit, causing a huge shock wave, and turning the surrounding debris into a mess. 

And Peter was already in Mathison’s arms, half-crouching on the ground with his back to Whiplash. 

“You stupid monkey, do you know what you did just now?” 

Mathison put Peter on the ground and flicked his finger on Peter’s forehead. 

“It hurts… who are you?” 

Peter asked with moist eyes, covering his forehead. 

“This is……” 

Mathison noticed that a mask had fallen on the ground behind Peter’s butt. 

Picking it up and looking at it, it is indeed the simulated mask of Iron Man! 

The back of the mask is also tied with a pair of artificial palm cannon gloves. 

Good lord, he saved a little fan of Iron Man. 

“Who are you?” 

At this time, Ivan’s voice broke in and asked the same question as Peter. 

The huge whip armor came out of the pothole. 

In an instant just now, the police officer in front of him was able to rescue the child across such a long distance. 

It is absolutely impossible for humans to have this kind of speed. 

“Who are you?” 

Ivan stared at Mathison closely and asked again. 

“You are a big bad guy, Iron Man will come to defeat you!” 

Standing in front of Whiplash, Peter, the brat finally knew what fear of death feels like, and shivered behind Mathison. 

But he seemed to feel that this was too embarrassing, so he yelled to Whiplash tremblingly. 

Mathison was amused by the boy’s behavior. 

“Iron Man is not here now.” 

Peter felt something on his head, he reached out and molded his hand to his head, and found it was a top hat. 

Looking up again, the person standing in front of him had taken off his police uniform at some point. The white cloak was drifting in the evening breeze. 

“Phantom… Kid!” 

Peter exclaimed! At this moment, Phantom Kid’s silhouette seemed to become strangely tall.
