Mei Man: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

Chapter 209 Accidental Contact
"We're running out of time..."

Basement of the Holy of Holies, Brick Street, New York.

The prophecy of "The Crow's Call" made Doctor Strange's expression a little dignified, and the revenge of a god is not something to talk about casually.

Fortunately, through Yaming Bu's warning, he won a precious opportunity.

Let him prepare in advance or take the first step to kill the danger.

Compared with the former, Doctor Strange himself is more inclined to take the initiative, and he has never been a passive person.

"Wait a minute, don't be too surprised."

Thinking of this, Doctor Strange no longer hesitated, and then he reminded Banner and Carter in front of him.

"what?"

Hearing this, Banner still had a puzzled look on his face.

In the next second, Doctor Strange in the basement stretched out his fingers, and a flickering dimension door suddenly appeared in front of them with the movement of chanting words.

"Oh..."

Looking at the dimensional door in front of him, which is completely different from the basement, Banner managed to control his emotions to suppress the exclamation that he wanted to let out. The look in Carter's eyes behind him was also full of shock.

Although he has accepted the fact that he died five or sixty years ago and was resurrected in the body of Captain America Steve Rogers, seeing the appearance of the Dimensional Gate at close range now still makes Carter feel the shock in his heart.

You know, Doctor Strange didn't use this method in the fight with her just now.

"keep quiet."

After reminding the two people behind him, Doctor Strange walked through the portal.

Seeing the back of Doctor Strange disappearing into the portal, Banner stepped forward to follow, and then Carter hesitated a little through the portal in the basement.

"You are!"

On the other side of the portal, in the New York medical examiner's office.

Looking at the sudden appearance of Doctor Strange and his party, the two forensic doctors couldn't help but exclaimed, but before they could make a follow-up reaction, they saw Stephen pointing his finger at the two of them.

Plop, plop!
The forensic doctor suddenly lost consciousness and fell down.

When Banner and Carter passed through the portal, they saw the scene where the forensic doctor fell.

"What I'm going to do next is kind of scary, it's not for them to see."

Under Banner's surprised gaze, Doctor Strange explained casually.

While talking, he set his sights on the two corpses dissected in the office.

"what is this?"

Following the direction Doctor Strange was looking at, Banner noticed the shriveled corpse, the exposed stomach and internal organs made the expression on his face suddenly pale.

"Are they the clues you're looking for?"

Compared to Banner's discomfort, Carter on the side was particularly calm. As an agent who survived World War II, she was used to all of this.On the battlefield, she has also experienced more tragic scenes than this.

"Yes."

Nodding, considering the urgency of time, Doctor Strange didn't hesitate much.

"Help me watch what's going on outside."

Reminding the two people behind him, Doctor Strange stepped up to the two shriveled corpses, glanced left and right, and casually picked up the detached corpse's head.

Witnessing the scene where Doctor Strange picked up his head, Banner wanted to say something, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at the dry head hanging on his waist, and suddenly felt that he seemed to have nothing to say.

Just like that, while the two watched silently, Doctor Strange and the shriveled head in his hand looked at each other.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of chanting incantations came from the medical examiner's office. Doctor Strange raised his head and began to dance an exaggerated dance around the corpse. Under the bright lights in the office, his shadow was constantly shaking in the dance. Weird bend.

In the office, Doctor Strange kept dancing the ancient prayer dance.

This is a shamanic spiritual summoning ceremony. As a primitive ancient religion, shamans believe that everything has a soul and is immortal.

And right now, Doctor Strange is using the power of the shaman to summon the dead souls in the shriveled corpses.

Generally speaking, voodoo voodoo is more suitable for summoning dead souls than shaman voodoo, but whoever offends Doctor Strange is the voodoo god of death, Baron Saturday, if he dares to use voodoo voodoo The technique guaranteed that the Baron on Saturday would respond immediately and take his soul away.

Therefore, Doctor Strange had to choose a more cumbersome shamanism for spiritual conjuration.

Although the ritual process was a bit cumbersome, at least so far he has not offended the shaman gods and can temporarily borrow their power.

Just like that, along with the ancient dance steps performed by Doctor Strange, the shadows behind him also began to dance like a group of demons dancing wildly.

"what……"

At the same time, there didn't seem to be any abnormality in the hand, and the shriveled head also let out a painful wail.

The wail sounded very suddenly, and Banner almost cried out when he heard this cry unexpectedly.

On the other side, Carter subconsciously came to the door of the forensic office to make sure that the cry did not attract unnecessary attention.

Fortunately, it's not a big problem.

Through the gap in the office door, Carter saw the busy crowd in the corridor outside, and no one seemed to notice what was happening in the office.

"I can't breathe!"

In the hands of Doctor Strange, the shriveled human head opened its eyes, and made a painful cry with its mouth wide open.

From Banner's position beside him, he could clearly see that his silent head suddenly came alive, opening his mouth to make a sound.

"You don't need to breathe."

Holding the head in his hands, Doctor Strange responded calmly.

"Tell me, who killed you, Floyd?"

The time for the shaman to summon the souls of the dead is limited, and Doctor Strange obviously didn't want to waste too much time, so he hurriedly asked the shriveled head in his hand.

Floyd was the name of the deceased mentioned in the newspaper, and it was through this name as a medium that Doctor Strange was able to successfully awaken Floyd's soul.

"It's a woman!"

Facing Doctor Strange's inquiry, Floyd opened and closed his shriveled mouth, and answered in an extremely hoarse voice.

"She's a monster, her hair is alive..."

The scene before his death obviously left a very deep impression on Freud, so that he did not forget all this even if he turned into a dead soul.

"Tell me what she looks like, Freud!"

On the shriveled head, Floyd turned his gray eyes to look at Doctor Strange in front of him, and answered with a murmur.

"She has black fluffy long hair, and there is a weird decoration on her waist that looks like a beast's teeth..."

After saying all this, the soul of the dead in Freud's shriveled head seemed to become a bit more blurred. His eyes swept over everything in the medical examiner's office and finally stopped on the separated corpse. Suddenly, it was like a dream. Said like waking up.

"So I'm already dead?"

As Floyd's voice fell, the shriveled head that was still alive lost all sound in an instant.

"interesting."

In the medical examiner's office, the [invisible] Colin witnessed the whole process of Doctor Strange's soul-calling, and couldn't help sighing.

After confirming the abnormality of the corpse's death, he originally planned to leave.

Just a second before he was about to leave, a portal suddenly appeared in the office, and then under Colin's gaze, he saw Doctor Strange and his team walk out of the portal and knock down the forensic doctor. Another dance to the shriveled corpse.

His eyes fell on the four [Time Shards] representing Stephen Strange.

Under Colin's gaze, under the appearance of broken glass, Strange's figure could be seen flashing in it, and then an unexpected scene appeared. The scene of Lanci shaking hands appeared, and at the same time the screen jumped, and Strange's appearance also changed from that of a high-spirited surgeon in the hospital.

In the next picture, Strange's operations began to go wrong frequently, and he also began to come into contact with all kinds of weird witchcraft, and finally the picture stayed in Strange in a gloomy room, The scene of holding a parchment in hand and muttering words.

So, Strange, no, what happened to Doctor Strange has something to do with me?

The scenes shown in Stephen Strange's "Time Fragments" are somewhat beyond Colin's expectations.

He obviously didn't expect that his previous contact in the hospital would indirectly lead to Stephen Strange's transformation into Doctor Strange.

It's just that Colin couldn't make a judgment for a while as to what the reason was.

But there was one thing he was about to be sure of, and that was that the Doctor Strange in front of him was obviously different from what he had imagined.

It's not just that the other party doesn't have the iconic cloak on his body, but also that the way of casting magic is not what Colin is familiar with.

Compared with Doctor Strange, the picture presented on the shard representing [Time Shard (Bruce Banner)] is much simpler.

Through the flashing pictures in the fragments, Colin knew the process of Banner's transformation into Hulk, and the most critical reason why the opponent suddenly disappeared in the previous battle.

Obviously, all of this is inseparable from Doctor Strange's means.

Through the power of the portal, it is indeed possible to easily avoid Colin's search. After all, the range of [Super Hearing] and [Super Vision] that he has unlocked so far is only within ten kilometers.The portal created by Doctor Strange easily surpassed this range.

It is undoubtedly a good thing to figure out the method of Hulk's escape from the battle.

However, compared to this question, Colin was more concerned about the third person who appeared in the medical examiner's office, that is, Captain America Steve Rogers.

As if he remembered correctly, this person should have died on the battlefield of World War II long ago, how did he appear here now, and acted with Doctor Strange in a grandiose manner.

Judging from the number of [Time Fragments] indicated in the text, it also shows the specialness of Captain America itself.

With all kinds of doubts in his heart, Colin set his sights on the [Time Fragment] representing Captain America.

However, in the next second, the name displayed on [Time Fragment] made the expression on his face a bit surprised.

【Shards of Time (Steve Rogers/Peggy Carter)】

What do you mean, is the text wrong? !
Such a scene, Colin has only seen it in [Time Shards] (Thunderbolt/Blame Man) before.

It's just that it's just a title. Whether it's Human Torch or Flame Man, they all represent the biochemical man in the Hydra base, and right now Captain America Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter are two totally useless people.

So what's going on here?

With doubts in his heart, Colin seemed to be able to see the figure of Captain America flickering under these [time fragments] like broken glass.

Immediately afterwards, the vision in his eyes began to become blurred, and countless green lights began to float.

In the flashing green light, Colin seemed to see the figure of Steve Rogers. He joined the army with a thin body, and was finally selected as the subject of the super soldier serum after many tests, and successfully passed the test. After the experiment, he became known as Captain America.

These pictures are similar to the experience of Captain America in Colin's impression, and there is no problem.

But soon, the scene on the screen changed. In the flashing green light, you can vaguely see the scene of Captain America leading the team to fight. They participated in a small team attack, but they encountered an ambush at the end. This should be It is the battle in which Captain America was finally killed in the records.

In the flickering green light, Colin vaguely saw a vague figure appearing to attack Captain America, and the next moment the screen was blocked by the green light.

At the same time, the floating picture also began to change, from the perspective of Steve Rogers to that of Peggy Carter.

In these flashing pictures, Colin saw Peggy Carter participating in becoming an agent and meeting and acquainting with Captain America Steve Rogers. Captain's picture.

Looking at the scene of Peggy Carter wearing Captain America's suit in the flashing green light, Colin had some vague guesses in his mind.Immediately afterwards, in the constantly flashing images, an extremely familiar image appeared in front of him. Next to the overturned car, Peggy Carter in the uniform of Captain America appeared and pulled a figure out of the car .

So, the person who saved Howard at the time was Peggy Carter?

This familiar scene reminded Colin of the last scene he saw in Howard's [Time Shards].
