Beauty Man: Infinite Possession

Chapter 263 Clues
New York, Cliff House.

With a burst of rapid breathing, Tony woke up from his sleep.

His face was pale, obviously having a bad dream.

"Sir, you haven't been sleeping very well recently."

Noticing Tony's state, Jarvis sounded a reminder.

"I know."

Wiping the cold sweat off his face with a towel, Tony looked at his almost pale face in front of the mirror, and replied with a weak look.

In fact, since the New York War, his state has not been very good.

Although the result of the New York War ended with the victory of the members of the Avengers, everything experienced during the period constantly reminded and warned Tony of the dangers faced by mankind.Especially after that, Davy Jones who appeared in Upper New York Bay, and the sacrifice of Guixianren told Tony one by one how much danger the world was facing.

He tried his best to save it all, but obviously the result was not as expected.

The strength displayed by the opponent seems to always be stronger than him.

And Tony has been immersing himself in the training with the stone ghost face recently, and it may be that he wants to use this to divert his attention and prevent himself from thinking about it.

"But, I just can't sleep."

Turning his head and glanced at the direction of the bed, Tony gave up his plan to lie down again, turned around and came to the basement of the villa, looked at the room full of steel suits, and said wearily.

"Sir, according to my diagnosis, the appearance you are showing now obviously has the characteristics of anxiety disorder, and it is already a severe anxiety disorder."

"I?"

In the basement, upon hearing Jarvis' diagnosis report, Tony subconsciously showed a surprised expression.

He, Tony Stark, billionaire, super genius, Iron Man, has an anxiety disorder.

……

bang——

Luke Cage waved his heavy fist and punched the dead man in front of him.

However, Luke Cage's powerful and heavy blow caused damage to the living corpse, but it was not as effective as imagined.

Getting up from the ground, he looked down at the fist mark on his chest. Luke Cage's punch directly broke three ribs on the chest of the corpse.

However, this obviously serious injury on an ordinary person is just a scratch to a corpse.

Grinning his mouth and letting out a roar, the corpse walked towards Luke Cage again without hesitation.

boom!
Controlling the posture of flying and falling from the sky, Jessica kicked and broke the neck of a dead man on the opposite side, and said with a frown: "Now, I understand what Joseph Joestar reminded, these corpses Humans are indeed a group of troublesome guys." As she said that, Jessica glanced at the dead man whose neck was broken by her kick, and even though he suffered such serious injuries, this guy still stood up tenaciously and stood against her. The neck, which had been bent at 180 degrees, rushed towards her.

Exercising the power of the iron fist directly crushed the head of the dead man in front of him. Danny looked at the dead man in front of him with a serious expression and fell down after losing his head. His expression was not very good.

"Didn't you find that since the last few days, there have been more and more corpses?"

This is not the first time the members of the defenders have fought against the undead. In fact, since a few days ago, they have taken the initiative to look for the hidden undead in Hell's Kitchen.

However, since yesterday, Danny has clearly felt that the number of corpses encountered by the defenders has increased significantly.

"Actually, I feel the same way."

Raising his hand, he grabbed the head of a dead man on the opposite side, ignoring the other's bite, Luke Cage squeezed the other's head hard with one hand, and his expression also became serious.

This is not a good sign. The increase in the number of zombies may not pose a serious threat to the defenders, but it is obviously a huge threat to ordinary people living in Hell's Kitchen.After all, not everyone was able to ignore the attacks of corpses like them.

Even if, according to Joseph Joestar, the zombies infected by vampires no longer have the ability to infect other people.However, don't forget that the way of living zombies is mainly by eating corpses. In a sense, the existence of living zombies is even more terrifying and dangerous than vampires.

Jessica frowned, cast a glance at Luke Cage's hand pinching the dead man's head, subconsciously moved to the side a little, then turned to look at Matt on the other side, the blind lawyer cast With the power of ripples, he easily melted and wiped out the corpses attacking around him, with a somewhat envious expression on his face.

"Sure enough, ripples are the most effective means of attack against zombies."

After learning the power of ripples, Matt's attack on the corpse can be said to be fatal, which is obviously much more efficient than other members of the defenders.

"After all, this is the strength that Baron Shepilly learned from Penglai after going through all kinds of hardships."

He raised his hand to block the attack of a zombie in front of him, and then sent him flying into the air with a left uppercut. With a heavy landing sound, Luke Cage raised his eyebrows and said, "And, if you If you are interested in Ripple's practice, you can go to Matt or Joseph Joestar to learn."

"just forget it."

Dodging the attack of the dead man and flying into mid-air, Jessica waved her fist and smashed the head of the dead man below her into the body, while curling her lips and said: "If I can learn it, I already knew it when I was by the river. Learned."

Jessica knew very well that although the so-called Ripple Power was good, it obviously had nothing to do with her.

"Ripple sprint~"

Adjusting his breathing, he displayed the last weak ripple power in his body to melt the corpse in front of him.

Matt panted heavily. After all, his contact with the power of ripples was too short. Although relying on his own super senses to quickly comprehend the power of ripples, he wanted to truly use the power of ripples naturally. , It will take a while to practice.

Fortunately, Matt was not the only one fighting the undead in front of him. With the help of the defenders, they finally wiped out all the undead in front of him.

It's just that the victory in front of them didn't make the defenders feel much excitement.

"There are more and more corpses."

Adjusting his breathing, Matt said with a solemn expression: "This is not a good sign."

"About this point, I have actually found a little clue."

Just when the members of the Defenders were worried.

Joseph Joestar's voice sounded, and then the weather-beaten vampire hunter appeared in front of the defenders, dragging a tall and thin figure covered in bruises with one hand.

Using his right hand, he threw the figure in front of Matt and the others. Joseph Joestar pointed to the tall and thin figure and said, "This is what I've been looking for, the servant of the Vampire King. It should be able to tell you why there are so many dead people in New York."

[From the legend of Daredevil...]

[The legendary degree from Jessica Jones...]

【From Danny...】

[From the legendary degree of Luke Cage...]

"Servant of the Vampire King?"

Jessica raised her eyebrows and looked at the wounded guy in front of her. If Joseph Joestar hadn't said it himself, she would never have imagined that such a wounded existence would be a vampire.

"Cough, cough, cough—"

Lying on the ground, coughing loudly a few times, the tall and thin figure swept across the defenders in front of him with his red eyes, and finally landed on Joseph Joestar behind him, grinning to reveal his sharp He gritted his teeth and said hoarsely: "Joseph Joestar, have you forgotten how your master died at the hands of Lord Dior and survived with great difficulty, but now, he is desperately looking for Go to Lord Dior to die..."

"I don't bother you about that."

Facing the ridicule of the tall and thin man, Joseph Joestar raised his foot expressionlessly, using the power of the ripples to melt one of the opponent's hands, and then continued with a cold face amidst the opponent's screams. The interrogator said: "Now, you just need to tell me why Dior let you come to New York."

"Do you think I'll tell you, Joseph Joestar?"

Gritting his teeth and making a ferocious expression, the tall and thin man replied hoarsely.

"You can choose not to speak."

Silently hanging his feet on the tall and thin man's head, Joseph Joestar began to make a silent threat: "Then. Next, my ripples will not fall on your hands, but... ..."

"Okay, I say, I say!"

Sensing the deadly threat coming from his head, the thin and tall man's pale face suddenly changed, and he opened his mouth and shouted: "It's Jiuyou, Lord Dior arranged for me to come to New York to meet Jin Bin because of Jiuyou's matter, And hand over the stone ghost mask to Jin Bing."

"Jiuyou? Stone ghost face!"

[From the legend of Daredevil...]

[The legendary degree from Jessica Jones...]

【From Danny...】

[From the legendary degree of Luke Cage...]

What the thin and tall man said caused the members of the defenders to change their expressions suddenly. They didn't expect that the appearance of vampires was actually related to Jiuyou, let alone Jin Bing's existence was involved.

"Joseph Joestar, I've told you everything, you should..."

After saying everything he knew, the tall and thin man hurriedly shouted to Joseph Joestar behind him.

However, what responded to him was Joseph Joestar's heavy blow with ripple power.

"You lied to me... Joseph Joe... Star..."

Under the power of ripples, the tall and thin man's body melted quickly, but he still shouted at Joseph Joestar with resentment.

"I never said that I would let you go."

Facing the tall and thin man's questioning, Joseph Joestar replied with a cold face and expressionless face.

At this moment, the ruthless image of the vampire hunter was fully revealed in front of the defenders.

……

"So, Iron Patriot?"

Looking away from the TV, Tony looked at his friend in front of him and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Can you tell me how you feel right now?"

With a wry smile on his face, Colonel James shrugged helplessly in the face of Tony's ridicule: "They think War Machine sounds a little too belligerent."

If possible, Colonel James actually doesn't like the name Iron Patriot very much. Unfortunately, although he has become the controller of War Machine or the current Iron Patriot by virtue of his status as Tony's friend, he has no actual naming rights. It can only passively accept orders from the military and even the Pentagon behind it.

"James, tell me, what is all this about?"

Naturally, the name change of the armor was not without a reason. In fact, the reason why the White House chose to change the name of the Iron Armor at this time was to suppress the recent frequent explosions.

"This is a secret, Tony." Facing Tony's questioning, Colonel James looked a little embarrassed.

"Hey, James, are you going to keep even me a secret?"

Facing Tony's emotional card, Colonel James clearly showed hesitation on his face, he struggled a bit, and then lowered his voice: "Actually, as far as we know, there have been nine explosion accidents, and At present, there are only three known to the public, and the crux of the problem is that we cannot identify how the explosion occurred, and there are no bomb casings at the scene..."

"No bomb casings?"

The news that Colonel James told him revived Tony's originally slack spirit and made him a little interested.

"The Pentagon attaches great importance to these explosions. After all, after experiencing New York and the [Flying Dutchman] incident, we all know that the world is no longer as safe as it used to be..."

Tony: "I don't think the past is so safe."

Ignoring Tony's ridicule, Colonel James continued to express the government's position: "The government needs to re-establish its image to avoid greater panic. To this end, it must trace the source of the explosion and prevent similar explosions from happening again. New York and the recent frequent The incident brought down the people’s trust in the government to the lowest point.” Speaking of this, Colonel James hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice again and said to Tony in front of him: “In addition, there was evidence that during the explosion , someone once called a name called Holy Lord..."

"Holy Lord?!"

[The legendary degree from Tony Stark...]

"What's the matter, Tony, are you okay?"

Noticing the changing expression on Tony's face, Colonel James couldn't help asking.

Hearing his friend's concern, Tony turned his head silently and looked at the other party: "If the other party really called the name 'Holy Lord', then maybe you are in big trouble, James."
