The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 1396 Return of the Old Days ([-])

After a while, in a cramped and cramped bedroom on the second floor of the store, a long-haired girl sat on the floor soaked, obviously just watered, and stared at the two people in front of her with hateful eyes. A young man, Xu Shang shook his head angrily and said: "Miss Jessica, if you didn't want to beat us madly, I wouldn't have splashed you with water. Are you calm down now?"

Jessica let out a "bah", like the kind of female gangsters often seen in Hell's Kitchen, shook her head vigorously, flicked the wet hair behind her ears, took a deep breath and said, "It really wakes me up!" It's not water, but the action of casting spells, monsters can't cast spells, at least they can't make spells without dark power."

"Can you tell us what's going on here? We've just introduced ourselves, we're superheroes from another world, and we've only just arrived here."

"Soon you will have to stay here forever." Jessica said with a sneer, "You just had a fight with those monsters, right? Just wait, your madness will only happen sooner or later."

Riley and Xu Shangqi looked at each other, Riley knelt down, looked straight into the eyes of Jessica who was curled up on the ground, and said: "That's why we want to know what happened here, because we saved you superior."

"You didn't save me, I hid well, and you brought me here."

"But you haven't been hiding there for long." Xu Shangqi emphasized: "The monster will find you sooner or later, and there are not enough sustaining materials here."

"Anyway, I will go crazy sooner or later, and I will hide for a while." Jessica said in a self-defeating manner. She threw the old-fashioned shotgun aside, hugged her legs, and said, "If you insist on knowing that this desperate If it’s true, I’m not stingy about repeating them.”

"As you can see the world has gone mad, and this madness started with superheroes, Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man, those superheroes that people used to see in the newspapers, all turned into monsters."

"Followed by ordinary people, a frighteningly insane contagion spreads among the crowd, and one by one people turn into monsters and start wreaking havoc."

"At first, the FBI and the military were a bit useful. They used large-scale thermal weapons to scrub the ground, and then people discovered that the transmission route of this infectious disease is not the wound, but the spirit."

Jessica pursed her lips, showing a desperate expression and said: "As long as you see them, or even get close to them, you will gradually be infected by madness, that terrible irresistible darkness erodes your heart, and eventually Turn you into a monster like them."

"By the time the government realizes this, it's too late, many of them have been converted, yes, someone hit the nuke button, luckily their brains didn't let them drop the big bomb in the right place, but The oceans are already polluted, as is the groundwater."

Both Riley and Xu Shangqi's faces became heavy, while Jessica's complexion was pale, and she muttered: "In some countries in Asia, there are still remnants of organizations fighting stubbornly, and there are still some survivor alliances in Texas and Florida. , but New York is totally screwed, and you know why."

Of course they know that New York is the place where superhero activities are the most intensive. If superheroes are the source of infection, it is almost impossible to leave anything here.

"Then you..." Xu Shangqi spat out a few syllables hesitantly. He was worried that Jessica's unstable mental state would be stimulated again, so he was extra tactful.

Jessica pursed her lips and lowered her head, showing a wry smile and said: "I was a blessing in disguise. For a long time before, I was controlled by a super criminal named Purple Man. He established a mental state in my brain. A barrier of control."

"When the disaster struck, he died in the hands of a certain superhero immediately, but his mind control over me was not completely over, the barrier was still there, so I used my talent to drive away two monsters , and hid."

Jessica pointed at her head and said, "He's a horrible sadist who manipulates every part of my mind, takes away my ability to think for myself, and saves my life because the remaining Affected, the madness brought by monsters can't control the main part of my brain, so I can face those monsters directly without going crazy."

"But what you said is right." Jessica's tone showed a trace of despair: "This is not a long-term solution at all. As I gradually regain my sobriety, that kind of madness will invade here sooner or later, and I will become a vendetta." A monster like the League of Legends."

"Vendetta?" Riley repeated the word with some doubts. Jessica looked up at him, but quickly looked away, muttering: "Yeah, Vendetta, there And maybe some of your old friends, Iron Man, Captain America, Thor."

Both Riley and Xu Shangqi opened their mouths wide in shock, Xu Shangqi swallowed and said, "Well, Iron Man and Captain America are still human after all, I can understand, what's going on with Thor?"

"Literally, it's the guy who walks around with a hammer." Jessica shook her head and said, "There aren't many reports about him in the newspapers, and I don't know much about him. Is there anything special about him?"

Of course he is very special, Riley said in his heart, he glanced at Xu Shangqi, obviously Xu Shangqi thought the same way, it seems that Jessica didn't know that Thor came from Asgard, but both of them knew.

If even the protoss of Asgard were to fall, the enemy might be stronger than expected, and they would have to reassess the magnitude of the situation.

"How did you come to this universe? Forget it, it's useless to ask. You should go away before you get infected." Jessica waved her hand and stood up, picked up the old shotgun again, and said : "I have special abilities, but the purple man's control over me prevents me from fully exerting my strength now. If I go crazy, I may hurt you, so get the hell out of here."

After finishing speaking, she was about to go out with a gun in her hand. Riley stopped her, looked at her and said, "You mean, we will be infected if we face the monsters? But we just solved two monsters."

"That's right, one looks like a zombie, and the other looks a bit like a cobra, but with many more tentacles." Xu Shangqi described.

Jessica paused for a moment, she turned her head to look into Xu Shangqi's eyes and said, "Did you meet their eyes?"

"Of course, that zombie has at least eight eyes, and I don't think it would be hard to see them." Xu Shangqi replied honestly.

But Jessica took two steps back, looking at them as if they were looking at monsters, she shivered, and then said: "Didn't you see, didn't you see any terrible visions? For example, suddenly felt dizzy, and then saw many pairs of eyes Staring at you, tentacles and slime and all kinds of scary bugs?"

Seeing Jessica's pale face, Riley knew that she must be describing what he had seen, but he showed a confused look, and when he turned his head to look at Xu Shangqi, he found Xu Shangqi It was also a look of bewilderment.

"That's a terrible mental pollution." Jessica shook her head and said, "They will corrupt your brain and drag you into the whirlpool bit by bit."

"Spiritual pollution? Where?" Xu Shangqi asked subconsciously.

"I didn't see it," Riley said, shrugging. "I was too busy judging whether the spider sense was working or not."

Xu Shangqi recalled it for a while, and then said: "I was looking inside to check the flow of Qi, and I was reciting the formula in my heart. You know, it is very important to review before the exam. I don't want to make a mistake when casting a spell for the first time."

At this time, Jessica realized that the expressions of the two of them did not seem to be fake. The black-haired girl looked at the two of them curiously and said, "Are you immune to this kind of pollution? But what is the reason? It won't be because of You are visitors from another universe, right?"

Riley and Xu Shangqi looked at each other, obviously they thought of the same answer - maybe the pollution didn't happen, it was just a little bit weaker, so that they didn't feel it.

They recalled their tearful gratitude to see the monsters and zombies of this world as palpable, and thought of the quiet terror of the dreaded night in the dream universe, with the light of day now. The contrast between the bright, breezy and cozy scene - they were all about high fives.

Riley swallowed her saliva and slowly suppressed her excitement, but Jessica interpreted this action as worry and fear. She put the gun on her shoulder and said, "I don't intend to drag you into the water, and Nobody needs to save, if that's the fate of the universe, all I can say is, well fuck off, no more victims needed!"

After finishing speaking, Jessica turned around and walked downstairs, but Xu Shang was so angry that she stepped from the side to the stairs, blocking her only way, and said: "Wait a minute, I still have one early." A plan that has been thought of but has not yet been implemented.”

He glanced at Riley, who of course knew what Xu Shangqi was referring to, so he shrugged and said, "Well, whatever you want, I hope we can find some survivors to enrich our doomsday shelter inventory."

"What kind of charades are you playing?" Jessica kept looking between the two youths, as if guessing their relationship, as if thinking about the relationship between herself and their plan.

But no matter what, the three of them walked out of the shop window together, and the survival instinct of human beings will prevail at any time. Jessica knew that in a sense, these two people did save her. It would be polluted, and that would really save her.

"So, this is Hell's Kitchen?" Xu Shangqi asked.

"Isn't this obvious?" Jessica stroked the barrel of the shotgun and said, "The police cars you see on the road are not there to save the people, but to suppress the riots. This is where the chaos first broke out."

"If there is a safe house here that we can use, I think it must be..." Xu Shangqi turned to look at Riley, and Riley remembered the story he had told Xu Shangqi about himself , and after a little thought, he came up with the answer: "Jin Bin's palace."

Hearing the familiar name, Jessica raised her eyebrows. She guessed what these two people were going to do, but she still reminded: "I must emphasize to you that in this world, whether it is a villain or a superhero, It's all monsters now."

"That terrible gangster and his men must have turned into monsters too. They not only have guns but also tentacles, and maybe some helpers that you can't imagine."

"Aren't you coming?" Riley looked at Jessica and asked with a smile.

Jessica snorted coldly, pulled the bolt of the gun vigorously, then soared into the air under the slightly surprised eyes of Riley and Xu Shangqi, flew into the air, and said coldly: "I still say the same thing, go damn it!"
