American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 4 Young Aunt Mei

Ten minutes later, under Xiao Xian's gaze, the wound on his hand had completely healed. Although it was only a small wound, the fact that it healed completely in just ten minutes was enough to prove the power of super regeneration.

The power of super regeneration lies in the fact that it can regenerate even if only one cell is left. As for the recovery rate, it does seem a little slow now, but it is actually not weak.

More importantly, the regeneration rate can be increased by nutrients and the hatred of others. Take Tomie in the later part of the comics as an example. When she was burned by fire, her cells escaped directly into the air and she was restored to her human form in an instant.

Theoretically, as long as there are enough people who hate Xiao Xian and their hatred is strong enough, Xiao Xian can also be reborn instantly like Tomie. However, if he is hated to that extent, he will most likely die miserably immediately.

After all, this is a hybrid world of Marvel and DC, not Tomie's comic world. Not to mention super regeneration, even if he can summon himself from the timeline, or even infinitely rewind his time to before he was killed after being killed, he will still be in trouble if he offends someone he shouldn't.

Of course, if the regenerative ability reaches that level, as long as you don't offend God, OA, Life Court and the like, it won't be easy to die on Earth, and your safety will be guaranteed, at least on the physical side. On the mental side, if someone directly destroys your soul, Xiao Xian doesn't know if the super regenerative ability can bring it back.

Enduring the pain, Xiao Xian cut off several pieces of his own flesh and blood. He decided to hide his flesh and blood in some hidden and safe place to prevent himself from dying suddenly by accident.

Xiao Xian took a few pieces of his own flesh and blood and went out to hide them. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Daniel upstairs knocking on Tomie's door with an expectant look on his face. A small umbrella could be vaguely seen in his clothes pocket.

"I'm just visiting my neighbors, being friendly with them~"

Seeing Xiao Xian, Daniel was obviously panicked. He scratched his head awkwardly to explain, and then looked at Xiao Xian with a pleading face.
"You won't tell my wife, right?"

"Five hundred dollars." Pointing to Daniel's pocket containing the small umbrella, Xiao Xian stretched out his hand and calmly reported the number.

Xiao Xian had no interest in saving Daniel, a guy who cheated on his wife, but Daniel was going to die anyway, so instead of leaving the money to Tomie, he might as well give himself some money as start-up capital.

"Damn!" Daniel cursed unwillingly, then reluctantly took out his wallet, counted out five hundred yuan and gave it to Xiao Xian.

"Goodbye." After putting away the money, Xiao Xian smiled, walked around Daniel and pressed the elevator door. For the sake of the money, he hoped that Daniel would not discover Tomie's true appearance while playing poker, so that at least he would not die so disgustingly.

Of course, being targeted by Tomie does not necessarily mean death, but it is possible that life will be worse than death.

After going downstairs and starting the second-hand Volkswagen left to him by his original body, Xiao Xian carefully selected some places to hide his own flesh and blood cells. Finally, he even put a drop of his own blood in a bottle and threw it into the sea. In this way, even if New York was flattened by nuclear weapons, he would not die.

Of course, the amount of blood put into the drifting bottle is the least. After all, Xiao Xian doesn't want to find himself on an uninhabited island after being reborn. He can't swim back to the civilized world at that time, right?

After hiding his flesh and blood, Xiao Xian did not go back immediately, but went to a real estate agency and planned to move to another place.

Although Xiao Xian has temporarily withstood Tomie's mental pollution and has super regeneration so he is not afraid of being dismembered by Tomie's other suitors, Xiao Xian still feels it is very dangerous to live next to Tomie.

On the one hand, the danger comes from Tomie. Tomie's inherent assimilation attribute is too terrifying, especially the mental impact. Once she is hit, even super regeneration cannot save her.

On the other hand, as a monster, Tomie might attract various beings, such as superheroes. In addition, the setting that different Tomie kill each other also leads to the possibility that other Tomie might deliberately attract some beings to kill this Tomie. When he was scattering his own flesh and blood everywhere, Xiao Xian had already decided where he wanted to move to, which was near Spider-Man's home.

The reason for choosing Spider-Man is very simple. As a well-known superhero and the protagonist of the Marvel world, Xiao Xian feels that Spider-Man and the people around him have a great chance of completing the task. Even if they can't, maybe he can get a symbiote suit to play with in the future.

Moreover, the damage caused by Spider-Man and most of his enemies is physical, which poses no threat to Xiao Xian who has super regeneration.

Finally, there is another important reason, that is, Spider-Man’s real identity is Peter Parker. The place where he lives is cheap and easy to find, which is very friendly to Xiao Xian, who is short of money and has no connections.

Following the real estate agent to view the house, among several rooms, the one closest to Peter's house was even right across the street. When Xiao Xian discovered that this room was vacant, he decided in his heart that this was the one he wanted without any hesitation.

Of course, he made the decision without hesitation. On the surface, Xiao Xian still acted picky and pointed out a series of problems with the house, including ventilation, floor level, and old age, in order to lower the rent. However, there was no other way. The original owner was used to spending ahead of time and did not leave much money for Xiao Xian.

Strictly speaking, the savings that the original body left for Xiao Xian were not enough to pay off the bills for his installment purchases, such as the iPhone and the second-hand Volkswagen, which were all bought with loans from the original body, and the loans have not yet been repaid.

Speaking of iPhone, if Xiao Xian wasn't worried that his personality would be affected by other people's memories if he was reborn from someone else's body, he would almost want to go through special channels to make money. Anyway, Xiao Xian would not die even if he was drained of money now.

However, relying on his super regenerative ability, it might not be a bad idea to become a killer or something like that. Anyway, Xiao Xian had no intention of going back to inherit his original career and becoming a plumber. The salary was actually okay but it was hard-earned money and he could just get by, but there was no hope of becoming a capitalist overnight even if he worked for another hundred years.

What's more important is that this is America and not Neon. If it were in Neon, a plumber is such a promising career, Xiao Xian wouldn't mind continuing to work part-time even if he became rich.

After bargaining for a long time, it was not until the evening that Xiao Xian shook hands with the sales manager and signed the rental contract.

Just after they signed the contract, a sexy aunt knocked on the door and said very friendly
"Are you the new tenant here? Your door was not closed, and I happened to hear it."

"Yes, you are?" Xiao Xianming asked knowingly as he looked at the sexy aunt in front of him who looked very similar to Marisa Tomei. She looked even younger and more beautiful than the Aunt May in Holland's movie. Among the three versions of Aunt May, only this one looked so young.

Of course, the word young and beautiful doesn’t seem quite appropriate. Women of this age should be described as mature and charming, just like a ripe peach.

So, Spider-Man is also the Holland version? Xiao Xian thought about it and decided that it didn't have to be this version. After all, no matter which version of Spider-Man it was, it would be impossible for him to break into a house and rob a house, just like no matter which version of Batman was in the movie, he would not open a superhero agency and sign Superman.

"I live next door, and I thought since we'll be neighbors in the future, I'd come over to say hello." Aunt Mei said with a smile.

"Oh, I'll definitely visit you when I officially move in." Xiao Xian nodded and said politely. This Aunt Mei looked quite normal, at least much more normal than Superman saying to the camera, "And you, my friend, you are the real hero."

"Ok~ Goodbye, I'm going to prepare dinner for my nephew." Aunt Mei gestured, lifting the plastic bag in her hand.

"Goodbye." Xiao Xian waved his hand in response.
