American comics: Starting from the Dimensional Demon

Tap, tap, tap...

The Punisher, Frank Castle, walked quietly down the street, having just left New York City Central Hospital.

As a member of the Defenders, Luke Cage suffered considerable burns in the battle against Zero, requiring a long period of treatment in the hospital.

From time to time, Frank would visit him as a friend.

"This time is good; Luke's mental state is much better.

Hopefully, he can cheer up as soon as possible."

Suddenly, he stopped, looked at the darkening sky, and turned into a small alley on the side of the street.

A drug deal was taking place in the alley.

Several punks with dyed hair saw Frank enter and immediately surrounded him menacingly.

"Hey, who are you?

Who let you in here?"

"White guy, get out.

This isn't a place for you!"

"Get out!"

Completely ignoring their shouts, Frank flashed, and several punks lay on the ground with swollen faces and bloody noses.

They were foaming at the mouth, sleeping quite peacefully.

The red light in his eyes began to dim, and the blood from the Oni clan began to calm down.

This was a little trick he had figured out during this period: to temporarily partially vampirize to increase his physique and... five senses.

"Come out, woman!"

His nose twitched slightly, and the lingering scent of perfume in the air floated into Frank's nose.

His enhanced senses told him that a woman was hiding nearby.

But... there was no response.

The alley was silent.

After waiting for a while, seeing that the person still didn't come out, Frank calmly raised his foot and was about to walk out of the alley.

Just as he was about to reach the alley entrance, footsteps suddenly came from behind him.

He stood still and turned around, and a woman in a red leather pants appeared in his sight.

She had fair features, a high nose bridge, and short, ear-length hair, looking like a mixed-race of Eastern and Western descent.

Her height of 1.73 meters was just right, giving people a sense of coldness just standing there, like a rose with thorns.

"Who are you?"

Without asking the nonsense question of why you are following me, Frank went straight to the point.

"Ada Wong, a person who is going to help you."

Without revealing her profession, Ada Wong's opening was full of mystery.

"Help with what?"

This woman named Ada Wong gave him the feeling of a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, or to be more precise, a feeling similar to Natasha.

Ada Wong smiled slightly and slowly uttered a name.

"Huoyun Evil God."

"Impossible!

Huoyun Evil God is dead, I saw it with my own eyes!"

Frank's face suddenly turned cold, and his answer was decisive.

"Indeed, but... what about another person?"

Looking at him, Ada Wong's smile deepened.

"A person who is also called Huoyun Evil God!"

"......"

It was not impossible to have the same name and surname, but... what did this have to do with him, Frank?

Seemingly seeing the doubt on his face, Ada Wong continued.

"Huoyun Evil God is both a name and a title.

It is said that 700 years ago, a person named Huoyun Evil God appeared in the Eastern martial arts world.

That person was cruel and ruthless, and he was the only one who was respected.

Relying on his high martial arts skills, he killed the righteous path so that they were terrified."

"Because he was too famous, coupled with the changes of the times, Huoyun Evil God became a kind of glory, a title."

"And the previous Huoyun Evil God was the one you killed.

Also, for this reason, the new Huoyun Evil God must do something big to wear this title well."

"And killing you is a good publicity stunt."

"......Very interesting statement, tell me your purpose."

Frank's eyes were very calm.

"My purpose is very simple: to help you deal with Huoyun Evil God.

After it's done, you have to do me a favor."

Ada Wong looked at him, revealing her appreciation for Frank's calmness.

"What favor?"

"I am investigating an incident.

Two months ago, near New York Harbor, the Umbrella Corporation obtained a certain 'item.'

I want to know what it is."

"Umbrella Corporation? What do you want to do?"

"I need to go in and take a look."

"I refuse."

This woman was still hiding key points, making her untrustworthy.

Frank turned around without hesitation and refused.

"I need to get the black card from Huoyun Evil God.

That is the key to infiltrating Umbrella!"

The sound from behind did not stop Frank, but his speed did slow down.

"The information I got from the Shadaloo organization shows that the Umbrella Corporation is about to make a big move.

They obtained something from Antarctica; I don't know what it is.

However, if no one goes to stop it, many people in New York will die!"

"......"

This sentence was very lethal.

Maybe Ada Wong didn't care about this city, but Frank did care.

He stopped completely and turned around again: "Madam, I still can't trust you now.

Give me a reason to trust you!"

"Frank, your companion is in danger..."

Ring ring ring~

As soon as she finished speaking, Frank's cell phone rang.

"Mr. Frank, I am the head nurse XX of New York City Central Hospital.

Luke is missing.

We can't contact him.

Do you know where he went?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was a little flustered; it was the head nurse calling.

Frank casually dealt with a few words and hung up the phone, then stared at Ada Wong's eyes, as if to see through her.

"Luke is missing..."

"It's Huoyun Evil God.

He has already come to New York, and his purpose is very clear."

Ada Wong's answer made his heart sink.

He didn't have time to think more, so he hurriedly turned around to go to New York City Central Hospital.

But Ada Wong stopped him.

She led Frank out of the alley and stopped at the nearest door with a lock nearby, then took out a key in Frank's strange expression.

"This is a key with mysterious power that can take us directly there."

She casually explained, not caring whether Frank understood or not, and simply inserted it into the keyhole and twisted.

Click.

The door opened.

"This is?" Frank's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he stared at the scene behind the door.

It was different from what he thought, but a toilet, with the New York City Central Hospital logo clearly visible.

Step.

A woman in a hospital gown seemed to have just finished using the toilet and saw them as soon as she turned her face.

She seemed stunned, her mouth open, and her body motionless.

"Let's go, Mr. Frank."

Putting away the key, Ada Wong elegantly stepped in.

Following her footsteps, Frank nodded to the woman inside and calmly said, "Excuse me."

Then, in the woman's dazed expression, he calmly walked past her.

It wasn't until they had walked a long way out of the toilet that a piercing scream erupted from inside the toilet.

"Ahhhhh!

There's a pervert!

!"

The scream attracted the attention of quite a few people, and the crowd rushed towards that side, but it had nothing to do with Frank and Ada at this time, because they were now standing outside Luke Cage's ward.

He pushed the door, and the room was unlocked.

The room was quiet, and no one was there.

Luke was really gone.

Only under the pillow did they find a black token, and the three Chinese characters on it allowed Frank to barely recognize their meaning.

"Rakshasa... Token?"
