[Zhongyingmei] Crowdfunding a heroine

Chapter 12 The Underground Labyrinth

This is a bungalow in the suburbs. The second-hand Jinbei is parked alone in the garage, and the few furniture are covered with dust.

Lennart covered his face with a scarf, and looked into the basement with his head. The sky gradually darkened, and a magnificent red glow appeared in the sky. The entrance to the basement was located in the courtyard, overgrown with weeds. Going down the steps, I saw several starving mice.

"Why so much water?" Lennart looked at the soles of his feet with some displeasure, his new shoes were soaked.

"Get through and see." Lena turned on the flashlight and took a picture, holding onto the wall. Ice crystals gathered on the ground in front of them, melting the concrete slab. With the soft cracking sound deep in the ground, Lena connected to the GGK The field of crystals produced in the enhanced mode.

After thinking about it, she decorated the dark red underground passage and turned it into a lens ladder that was barely passable.

Once at the bottom, the flashlight was useless, and Lena was enveloped in the creation of her own abilities.

The red crystal was dark and self-illuminating in the ground, she walked forward slowly, the soles of her feet were very flat, feeling it, Lena found that the entire underground building occupied the entire underground world of Baltimore, and now Baltimore seems to be located in a building made of red ice crystals. On the formed continent, if any geologist goes down to the ground and reports this underground wonder, it will definitely shock the world.

"God bless Baltimore," Lena said to herself.

She can only control the red crystals within a certain range. Although the entire underground change comes from her, but one day the frost shatters and Baltimore sinks underground, Lena will not be surprised.

The ice crystals at the highest point could even see the underground pipeline overhead. They walked less than 1000 meters, and Lainate complained that he was tired. The child sat on the ground and waved to her: "I'll wait for you here."

After thinking about it, Lena summoned Maria and said, "Keep an eye on him."

Lennart stuck out his tongue at her.

Lena closed her eyes, trying to blend into the ice crystals.

Her body slowly became crystalline, and then shattered, as if blown by a gust of wind, entering the huge artificial cave.

She moved forward faster than she could think, just "thinking" and arrived at the place she wanted to go. The only regret was that she had no clothes in this state, but she could use ice crystals to condense clothes by herself.

Lena heard the sound of water.

Of course Baltimore had groundwater facilities, but in the dim red light, she saw a man.

The water flow washed against the crystal wall, and the man's arm happened to be stuck between the steel bar and the red crystal, and it was obviously dislocated. He closed his eyes, frowned slightly, and sank under the water. Lena was inside the red crystal, silently observing looking at the face of a man who seemed to have been drowned.

At this moment, Clark suddenly opened his eyes, he choked on his saliva, threw himself on the crystal wall, and looked at Lena.

Like staring at a giant whale through an oxygen mask in the deep sea, Lena couldn't tell what Clark's eyes meant for a moment. He looked silent and sad, but let him float outside like this...he probably dying.

She melted the crystal wall and grabbed Clark's hand.

The groundwater was poured into the interior of the red crystal underground labyrinth along the opening, and after Clarke was brought in, she sealed the gap casually.

The atmosphere was a little silent for a while, Lena took the lead and said:

"Ellen and the others used to laugh at me as a freak, but now I'm really a freak."

Clark coughed twice, looked around, the underground labyrinth was endless at a glance, the red light almost dyed his gray-blue eyes a little crimson, and he asked, "You did all of this?"

"Strictly speaking, yes." Lena shrugged. "I can't do it again."

He looked up at the old man, and said for a while, "This place is very beautiful, and... you were not the only one who was called a freak back then."

"People are just afraid of what they don't understand...but that doesn't mean it's wrong."

"I thought you were going to say something like - you have mutated to comfort me," Lena sighed and sat down cross-legged. She is now wearing clothes made of crystals by herself, and the light and shadow change during her actions. Very dehumanizing, "You're right, but that doesn't solve my current predicament."

She continued: "I thought you were dead, Mr. Kent, apartments in Baltimore are quite cheap, it may be that there are a lot of people who die in the fight every day, I just wanted to buy one for you on eBay."

Normal people don't drown like Clark.

"...I jumped into the water because someone threatened me with a gun and asked me what I had to do with you." Clark moved his wrist, and his dislocated hand was slowly recovering.

"Well," Lena's voice paused, "I'm sorry."

"So what did you do to them?" Clark smiled instead.

"Cut off their means of survival? For example, human trafficking, drug trafficking or something? Maybe the Baltimore police department will award me a medal."

"The Vigilante? Like, Gotham's Batman?"

"It's more like an urban legend. I've tried to hide my identity as much as possible." But as a stranger in Baltimore, she obviously didn't do well enough at the beginning, and after all, she showed her flaws in some ways.

Clark smiled.

"What? Is there a problem?" Lena gritted her teeth.

"No, I just think it's good to have a goal." He lay down on his back, the red crystal shone with confused light under the water light, "I'm very happy, you didn't do anything bad after you got power, you did Not a bad choice."

It's because you don't know what kind of power I have, Lena thought.

"As for the gangster... I really didn't notice it, and I will solve it." She said.

"Lena," Clark said, looking away from her, "do you like Baltimore?"

"No...it's terrible here," Lena said quietly, staring at the red crystal above her head, "it's also terrible to have special powers..."

"It's like falling into the deep sea and can't float up."

"At least," Clark said, "in Baltimore, you saved a lot of people, and the gang started to fear you, or they wouldn't pick on me."

"Stop mentioning my mistakes, okay?" Lena scratched her hair, "So poor that you want to work in a tavern but want to travel around the world, did you become a philosophical baby after graduation?"

This question kept Clark silent for a longer time, and he asked back:

"Then why did you leave the lab to become a vigilante in Baltimore?"

Lena was helpless, this guy almost made it clear that he was special.

"I repeat, it's an urban legend." She avoided the topic and looked at the other party. He had changed from a boy to a man just by looking at his appearance, with a big beard full of chins, and his eyes revealed from time to time confused.

She took two steps on her knees, and leaned over to hold Clark's face: "What are you worried about, goodboy? Tell Sister Lena?"

Inexplicably, Lena's suppressed mood relaxes slightly under this situation.

Maybe it's because of a familiar person, maybe it's because of the same situation, maybe it's because of a wonderful chance encounter, maybe it's because this is an underground place with no one else... Maybe it's because of a curious little fish washed down by the current, which was washed away countless times and then lost again. After swimming back, he stubbornly stuck to the surface of the red crystal and looked at the couple.

Maybe it's because Clark looks a little bit worse than himself?At least Lena was sure she was human before everything happened.

The gray-blue and light-green pupils looked at each other under the crimson light, and Clark said, "I want to know who I am."

He said: "Why am I... different from others."

He said: "Why me? What is my mission?"

Sister Lena raised her eyebrows: "You are Clark Kent, oh, now you are Clark Joyce."

"It's not that you are different from others. It's that there are no such people in the world. Everyone is a freak, but they hide themselves and blend into the public environment."

"I also ask why it is me every day, or one day God will take back the suffering and favor He has given," she laughed, "Then before that, I must at least leave traces of my existence in the world."

"Your mission in the family is to be a good son, and to be a useful person in society," she tilted her head. "Beyond all this, is to be yourself. Your mission should not be given by others." , but what you want to do.”

"You have the answer in your heart, Clark, you are just resisting this different self."

Like Lena who was forced to make a choice in the first place.

She was driven forward by those options, she hadn't done research for a long time, and her ability could perfectly replace many small things that she invented, and even be superior.

But on the other hand, special abilities also make her world wider——

"When I was a child, I thought I would own the world, but I didn't have two slices of bread, but when I grew up, I really owned the world, but I started to be afraid." Lena stood up and continued, " It's better to do more meaningful things than lie down before the sun goes down."

Clark got up, looked around, and was tapped by Lena on the forehead, his gray-blue pupils showed confusion: "Huh?"

"Sister Lena's psychological counseling is charged... I just moved, please help me tidy up the room."

"Which way to go?" Clark shrugged, "This is really a maze."

"Of course it's the closest one." Lena floated up and waved forward. Right in front of them, all the ice crystals were like Moses dividing the sea. Under Lena's control, they scattered to the left and right, forming a straight road, "Follow up , dear Joe."

But she didn't wait for each other.

She flew forward.

The author has something to say:

I didn't explain clearly about the ability of [Wish to win one's heart, the white head will not be separated] before, and I don't know how to change it.

So here's another example-

Just play the game and your resurrection props have A and B,

After you die, consume A to resurrect. There is only one A, but there are many B. After A dies (or is consumed by you), consume B to resurrect.

But if you consume A and don't revive A, then no matter how many B there are, you will really die if you die again.

A is Lenat, B is the heart.
