Chapter 502
As everyone saw the person in front of them was burned to ashes with a terrifying scream, their mental fortitude was immediately tested! But everyone realised that it was merely the beginning of their nightmare. It was as if the flaming chain had the will of its own and started burning the cops one by one.
The helicopters above tried to give a suppressing fire towards the Ghost Rider, but it only annoyed the Ghost Rider! He immediately swung his chain towards the helicopters, destroying the helicopter’s tail like it was a child’s toy!
The Ghost Rider seemed to be indulging himself in killing the cops, but suddenly, half of its face lost its flame! “Eli, that’s enough!” Robbie Reyes’s voice came out, and suddenly the Ghost Rider returned to its human form.
“Robbie, are you sure that you want to be human now? Without me, you won’t be able to escape this place!” Eli said as Dio suddenly saw a ghost around Robbie. It was Robbie’s uncle, but now that he was dead, he apparently used Robbie’s body to use the Spirit of Vengeance.
“Don’t force me, uncle!” Robbie said coldly, silencing Eli from talking any further. After speaking like that, Robbie then put his hands on his face and return to the Ghost Rider form again, but this time, the flame wasn’t as intense as earlier.
Robbie was back in control again. Although he has already killed so many police officers, Robbie knew it wasn’t his fault and regained his humanity. Now that he was already back in control, Robbie then targeted the Police’s car and destroyed it all, but he made sure that no one died from his attack anymore!
Robbie then also pulled out the helicopter’s pilots with his chain, bringing the helicopter down to prevent it from chasing him.
The Spider Man obviously wanted to stop the demon, but Dio made sure that he held Peter down from an unnecessary brawl with the Ghost Rider. When Robbie was about to leave, he made eye contact with Dio and Peter, like he was trying to memorize the both of them. After that, he disappeared into the night with his flaming car.
“Damn it! Why did you stop me! That demon has killed so many people, and if we don’t catch him soon, even more people will probably die!” Peter shouted at Dio angrily.
“Even if you can catch up to him now, did you really think that you can capture him?” Dio asked with a slight smile on his face.
Peter was obviously startled by Dio’s words and stopped complaining. He knew that he didn’t have ample strength to stop the demon from doing anything it wanted. Peter now realised that the demon couldn’t be killed no matter what he did!
But even so, Peter was still annoyed at the man in front of him right now as he failed to do something noteworthy to prove himself to Tony Stark! He was also annoyed at himself for being not strong enough to prevent the cops from dying earlier.
Peter knew that if he could stop the Ghost Rider, he could’ve saved the cops earlier, so Peter started to blame himself for not able to do anything.
Dio knew what Peter was thinking, but he didn’t do anything to correct his way of thinking. In Dio’s mind, people were entitled to think whatever and however they wanted, and he had no right to change that.
“There is an Evil Spirit inside that guy’s body that would be almost impossible to destroy. But a piece of advice for you, if you ever run into him again, don’t ever look into his eyes!” Dio said as he walked towards his car, leaving Peter to wallow on his unnecessary guilt.
Dio then drove towards the direction that Ghost Rider drove to. He didn’t know where the Ghost Rider might be, but he could use [Moody Blues] to track him down. But as Dio realised that he didn’t have a good look at the Ghost Rider’s human form appearance, [Moody Blues] took a long time to find the person that might be the Ghost Rider.
Eventually, [Moody Blues] finally showed a person who wore the same leather jacket that the Ghost Rider wore earlier. Dio wasn’t sure, but the man he saw now might be the Ghost Rider’s human form.
Nonetheless, he was relieved that he still found some sort of use for [Moody Blues] after possessing it for a long time yet not having the opportunity to use it. On the other hand, Peter quickly returned to the city and called Happy and reported what just happened earlier.
“What now, kid? A skull demon covered in flames and a flaming ghost car? I had a fight with him before, and I already drop his ass countless times! Now, if you didn’t wake me up, I might win another round!” Happy said annoyedly.
“No, it was true, happy!” Peter said frustratedly.
“What I said is also true! Next time you call just to harass me at this hour, I will drive the flaming ghost car to your house myself!”
“Happy, please listen …” Peter said, but the line was cut as Happy obviously ended the call. Peter was frustrated and lost as Happy didn’t believe him, and he didn’t have any means to talk with Tony Stark himself!
To make the matter worse, he couldn’t stop the skeleton demon! This time, Peter was really frustrated with the situation as he didn’t know what else to do.
“What should I do now? Think Peter, what would Mr. Stark do in this situation?” Peter quietly walked home as he lost in thought. However, after he jumped off the ceiling of his room and took off the hood, behind him at his bed, Ned saw everything!
“Spider Man?”
