American comics: weaving myths, starting from urban legends

Under the vast night.

It was raining both in the sky and on the ground.

Beyond the rain is a city plunged into endless darkness.

Whether it is Gwen or Constantine, or Coulson and the agents he brought with him, they all know that this seemingly familiar city is not the New York they remember.

“Can anyone tell me if we can still get out alive?”Gwen Stacey’s delicate little face was extremely pale.

She was already thinking about her short life.

She shouldn’t have quarreled with her mother this morning, and she shouldn’t have been so tense with her father because of the band a few days ago.

If possible, she would also like to say thank you to her psychiatrist who has always encouraged her.

If it weren’t for the psychiatrist’s encouragement, she would not have embarked on the path of a superhero.

Although she is about to burp because of becoming a superhero, Gwen Stacy does not regret her choice. She just wants to make one more phone call home before she dies – after all, it involves such a terrifying incident as a god, Gwen Stacy feels that she probably won’t survive.

“No signal at all.”

Gwen Stacey threw away the mobile phone in her hand in depression.

“Of course there will be no signal, this is not the real reality, but the lair of the Lord of Bronze and Fire, the dimension opened up by his power between reality and illusion.”

Chu Mu knew the role of Dante very well. He shook the white bangs in front of him and said to Gwen Stacy in a slightly mocking tone.”Does anyone think that you can call 911 here? Bar? Girl, I remember you were the superhero who was very active in New York.”

If she hadn’t realized that she couldn’t defeat Chu Mu, who had the ability to”open the sky with one sword”, Gwen Stacy would have rushed forward and taught the white-haired man in front of her a lesson.

“I didn’t mean to call the police.”Gwen Stacey explained, while complaining in a speechless tone,”Why do you always feel full of gunpowder when you talk?”

She felt that she had not offended the white-haired man in front of her.

“I just can’t stand how you people overestimate your capabilities.”Chu Mu took it as a matter of course and looked at Colson with a slightly mocking look.

“If the information from our foundation is correct, the statue you insisted on taking back for study last time should have lost control and escaped your custody by now?”

Although Chu Mu used a question, his tone was filled with certainty – of course he could be so sure, after all, he summoned [Little Peanut] back by himself.

“I’m sorry… We don’t know what happened. It suddenly disappeared from our base and seems to be killing people in New York City.”

Colson showed a slightly ashamed expression. He didn’t know the truth about [Little Peanut]’s disappearance. He really thought that SHIELD didn’t take good care of the [Little Peanut] statue.

“Look! This is what I mean by overestimating your capabilities! You lack awe of things you don’t understand!”Chu Mu confidently accused S.H.I.E.L.D.

“Leave professional matters to professionals. Don’t you even understand such a simple truth? Or are you so arrogant that you think you understand everything?”

The merciless accusation made Colson’s expression even more ashamed. I don’t know if Colson was just echoing the situation, or if he really had similar emotions in his heart.

“We just want to… try to understand a world that is changing so fast. But now it seems that we do lack awe for the unknown as you said.”

Colson sighed heavily.

“Are you aware of what is happening on Earth today?”

Constantine probably calmed down, and he looked at Chu Mu with red eyes.

“I should know a little better than you.”

Chu Mu carried the transformed [Blade of Rebellion] on his shoulders.

“So you know…the paradox?”

Constantine’s current state is not good. Whether it is the scene in front of him or the whispers in his ears, they are as bizarre as those who have eaten wild mushrooms.

However, his mind has not been affected too much. What he has seen It seems that he has met someone who understands the mysterious rise. Of course Constantine wants to seize this opportunity.

“paradox?”

Dante”, who originally had a cynical expression, immediately became serious after hearing the name, and stared at Constantine with a pair of cold eyes.

“Are you a believer in paradox?”

He asked knowingly.

His acting skills are amazing.

“So, you do know the paradox.”

Constantine’s mood was also ups and downs.

He felt something abnormal from Chu Mu’s reaction.

It seemed that the man in front of him, who could even mention the so-called sleeping ancient god with a cynical attitude, had no idea about the term”paradox”. But he was very sensitive

“tell me! Are you His chosen apostle?”Chu Mu suddenly appeared in front of Constantine, with a sharp sword directly placed on Constantine’s neck.

“I see! No wonder you’re here! I understand! I understand!”Chu Mu’s eyes began to light up, and his mood seemed very unstable.

“The Holy Fire of Olympus! You use it here! It’s not a coincidence, right?”Chu Mu’s broadsword has already pressed blood marks on Constantine’s neck.

“calm! calm! He is not the enemy!”

Colson quickly broke up the fight.

“Don’t you understand yet? You were used by him!”Chu Mu turned his head and looked at Colson. Those red eyes made Colson feel a strong murderous aura.

“I do not understand what you are saying!”

Constantine was also panicked and quickly explained.

“I only learned about this name during an incident… An evil spirit told me that the mystery was rising, and she also said that she was the apostle of [Paradox]”

“I have been investigating information about [Paradox], and I just want to ask you. My friend, there is no need for you to be so excited, right?”

I can’t do it without explaining. Constantine still wants to live. He felt the killing intent emanating from Chu Mu’s body and the slight fear hidden behind the questioning in his words.

As a human being,

Constantine immediately realized the man in front of him. He must have a deep fear of [Paradox].

In order to prevent himself from being killed by the other party who lost control of his emotions, he immediately betrayed the Supreme Mage Gu Yi who he had just called his”mentor” not long ago.

“As for the Fire of Olympus, I don’t know what’s wrong with that, it’s the weapon I got at Kama Taj, handed to me by the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme himself”

“Do you know the Sorcerer Supreme?”Constantine didn’t dare to move. Even if there was severe pain in his neck, he only dared to maintain the surrender gesture of raising his hands.

“The Supreme Mage…that bald woman who lives in the mountains?”Chu Mu showed a suspicious expression, and he looked at Colson with a look for confirmation.

“Well, we don’t know anything about the Sorcerer Supreme, but Constantine has been helping us at SHIELD investigate the mysterious rise recently.”

Colson can be regarded as vouching for Constantine, but he only told the information he knew, which can be regarded as leaving himself a little room for maneuver.

After all.

Constantine and that [paradox] Whether there is a connection or not, SHIELD has no evidence to judge, so it still has to be on guard against the possibility that Constantine is a bad guy.

“I’ll trust you for now.”

Chu Mu seemed to be thinking and making judgments. After a while, he let go of Constantine and took away the sword. He seemed to be slightly relieved.

“Ahem. Constantine touched his throat and coughed a few times.”

I almost cut my throat open. Don’t you think you should explain the [Paradox]?””

I’m so frustrated.

Now Constantine just wants to get some information.

Otherwise, what he just suffered will be in vain.”

“Knowing too much is not a good thing for you.”

Chu Mu’s eyes flickered slightly.

“After all, you can feel something about us, and we can know the situation, right?”Constantine still didn’t give up and used his language talent to try to persuade Chu Mu.

“Judging from your performance just now, you are obviously on the opposite side of that [Paradox]. You don’t want Him to wake up, right? We have the same purpose as you.”

Constantine talked eloquently, his tone was full of persuasion,”Although you look down on us, you can’t deny that more strength will give you more chances of winning. We may not be as powerful as you, but we can share our strength in fighting against the mysterious resurgence.”

Being able to become a hell detective, Constantine is indeed quite capable. Although he has not yet understood the situation clearly, he has already analyzed a lot of information.

“More power?”

Chu Mu seemed to be really moved by Constantine. After his eyes flickered again for a while, he nodded slowly as if he had made a decision.

“I have to say, Master, your language is very inflammatory, but I still can’t tell you too much, because you are not qualified to know many things.”

Chu Mu’s words made Colson couldn’t help but recall the information he got from Natasha.

“Is knowledge poisonous?”(To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

This is what Chu Mu revealed to Natasha last time

“That’s right.”

Chu Mu now confirmed this situation again,”What I can tell you is that once [Paradox] is revived, no race in the entire universe will be spared. Everyone will become a part of Him, and the entire universe will also will be dominated by chaos and madness”

“He is the reflection of knowledge, the backside of truth, the natural disaster of all universes, and the end of the unity of all things.”Chu Mu’s tone was full of heaviness.

Every word and every description struck everyone’s hearts like a heavy hammer, making everyone present feel an indescribable oppression.

“I am just a novice superhero, far from the powerful heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman. Can I really be involved in things that are related to the safety of the universe?”

Gwen Stacey is so numb. She is still a minor. How come the newbie Super Hero doesn’t even have a novice period? Then let her join the hell-level dungeon?

“Can anyone explain this [paradox] to me?”

Gwen Stacy looked at Colson. After Colson’s simple knowledge, Gwen Stacy immediately started to find paper to write a suicide note.

An ancient god is still sleeping in New York. Not enough.

Now another ancient god has emerged trying to do evil to the world.

Okay, okay.

Earth OL is so fun.

I don’t want to play anymore.

“I can simply understand that as soon as this [paradox] wakes up, will we all cease to exist?” Constantine tried to summarize

“Not just you, but everything… heaven and hell, God and Satan… the same thing happens to everyone.”Chu Mu told a big lie seriously.

He did not elaborate on what would happen to him.

“All beings are equal, which doesn’t sound too bad. Constantine smiled bitterly and used his habitual irony to cover up his inner uneasiness.

“As an organization that fights against the resurgence of [Paradox], I think you must have a backer that is comparable to him?”Constantine tried to find some comfort from Chu Mu.

“When we find a backer, we will definitely let you know.”Of course Chu Mu would not let Constantine get his wish, but he did not make his words too serious.

“……”

Constantine felt extremely tired. He suddenly realized that going to hell was not unacceptable, and that he might not be able to escape this disaster by going to heaven anyway.

Due to the experience of the angel Manny dying suddenly on the spot, Constantine did not doubt Chu Mu’s words at all, and he could not really contact the forces in heaven.

“Why did you misunderstand Constantine as the apostle of [Paradox] just now? What’s wrong with his torch?”Colson also asked at this time.

His inquiry made Chu Mu feel strange.

“What is the name of the ancient god sleeping here?”

Chu Mu looked at Colson with a look that looked like he was mentally retarded.

“You just said that he is called Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire, who has the ability to control flames and metals.……”Coulson was immediately stunned when he recalled this.

He reacted belatedly,”It’s because Constantine’s fire magic will stimulate Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire, who also has the ability to control fire, right?”

In fact, it’s not to blame for Coulson’s slow reaction, mainly because Today’s encounters are too bizarre and bizarre. It is naturally difficult for the brain that is constantly stimulated by fear and danger to think normally.

“The seal here has been broken, and it will be long before Norton wakes up, but under normal circumstances, he will not wake up too quickly after sleeping for a generation.”

Chu Mu’s words aroused Gwen Stacey’s rare thought.

“Just like a hibernating bear, it also takes a certain amount of time to wake up?”Gwen Stacey thought of the animal world she had seen when she was a child.

“Not a bad metaphor.”

Chu Mu nodded.

“Because he has been sleeping for too long, Norton needs a certain amount of time to”sleep”. Strictly speaking, he needs some time to recover and replenish his energy.”

Chu Mu turned to look at the broken torch on the ground,”Your flame is burning in this place, I think it has provided him with a lot of energy.”

Hearing this,

Constantine also glanced at the torch on the ground and felt a chill of fear running down his spine. He did not (Wang Qian) want to fight against a being that could be called an [Ancient God].

According to His understanding.

Beings that can have independent dimensions are extremely powerful dimensional demons. That means the bald woman of Kama Taj can fight with the dimensional demons.

“What does Norton’s recovery have to do with [Paradox]? Just now, when you thought Constantine was the Apostle of Paradox, you seemed to regard his appearance here as some kind of conspiracy.”

Colson has already sorted out a lot of things, so he has become more organized. This inquiry also attracted Constantine’s attention.

“【Paradox] Relationship with Norton?”

Chu Mu silently praised his old boss in his heart, but on the surface he made a very deep expression. He raised his head and looked at the sky that he had”drawn” apart.

“【There is certainly a relationship between Paradox] and the Lord of Bronze and Fire.”

Chu Mu’s tone had an inexplicable meaning, and what he said next was even more shocking, directly stirring up waves of emotions in everyone’s hearts.

“Don’t you know? Oh, you really don’t know that Norton is a captive pet of [Paradox], which is similar in nature to the weird ones you encountered.”

“They are both apostles created by [Paradox] for the purpose of recovery. The difference is that the apostles you met have just started, while the two Nortons have already stood on top of the world in the previous generation.”

Chu Mu’s words made the atmosphere in the air extremely solidified.

The already dead atmosphere in the Valley became only the sound of everyone’s breathing.

What a coincidence.

An ordinary agent who was mentally shocked also came out with a fire. Add fuel to the fire

“Sir, the [paradox] you were talking about turns out to be a god who can treat gods as pets, right? Do we really not think about giving up the struggle?”

The agent’s extremely decadent words made the atmosphere among everyone even heavier. Coulson, who was in a depressed mood, was no longer interested in reprimanding him.

“We…don’t we humans still have supermen?……”

Gwen Stacey’s voice was hoarse, trying to give everyone some encouragement..
