[Zhongyingmei] Crowdfunding a heroine

So, where is Baltimore now?

This closed city floats in the dark realm, at first the air was thin, so some humans were forced to sleep, then there was no food here, and another part adapted and started a civil war, but all the injured humans were "preserved" intact When it came down, Kirkel didn't even know whether to use the word "preservation", but the red tentacles that can be seen everywhere in the city did treat all creatures in the city as if they were preserving their own precious collections.

Not limited to humans.

There are also cats, puppies, birds, horses, and even paintings in museums.

He treats the city as if it were his own property, Kirkle shivered at the thought of this.

The city he grew up in is gradually becoming someone else's, which makes him angry and frightened.

He didn't even want to recall that day a few years ago (the life in the dark realm couldn't distinguish between day and night, and they couldn't find a good watch in the turbulent city), forcing himself to recall again and again, because he was different from others Same, he wants to get out of here.

Then you have to find the reason for the fall of Baltimore. Kirkle didn't know that his behavior was ridiculous. He even found a report about Alice in a newsstand in the city, and then deduced the mysterious crystal in the city. It is from the same source as Alice's power.

But he and his little organization still couldn't leave here.

After all, man cannot shake God.

They even have to live on crystals.

Because they have no food, and the crystals will go out to hunt.

At first no one dared to eat those strange, dead, twisted dark creatures, but hunger overcame reason, and if they didn't eat, they would eat human flesh.

Don't think about what dark beings are like, they survived the hard time.

And then—Kirkel hugged her newborn baby, crying and laughing.

He glanced at himself reflected in the window, in order to adapt to the environment here, he became more and more like the creature he ate every day.

And his child has completely become that appearance.

If it's really... really unable to leave the dark realm, it would be fine. If he hadn't seen the appearance of the human world, he could have endured the dark time, and even reproduced a group to assimilate with the unknown creatures outside.

But, on this ordinary day.

The red crystal disappeared in the city.

Kirkel stood there dumbfounded, his child lying on the ground, gnawing on flesh and blood, trembling all over, crying loudly.

the first year……

In the first year, he prayed to his heavenly father. He thought that he had been a gangster, sold/drugs, smuggled/smuggled, and forced people to prostitute/prostitution, so he would suffer this kind of suffering. He prayed that if someone could rescue him, he would From now on, change your mind and be a good person.

the second year……

In the second year, he pleaded guilty to Hongjing. He thought that the crystal was the representative of the gods. He lives like a human being.

th...

There may be clocks in the city that can beat perfectly, but he doesn't know what year it is.

He watched the sun shine down with the disappearance of the red crystal, the sea water spread from the bottom up, and the city sank, and Kirkle laughed out loud. He decided to kill the first person he saw in front of him as a celebration of his escape from hell. Climb out the gift.

Why should I suffer?Why does it have to be me?Even those compatriots who are skinny but still have the ability to breathe are wrapped in red crystals, they can sleep until the shadow of hell disappears, but I have to be assimilated into a monster by hell?

Kirkel wailed loudly, but the hazy sun shone on him and ignited him. He opened his eyes blankly, screamed silently, knelt down and crawled forward, trying to cover his child with his body, but found that the alert The infant, as if of some kind of beast, had run away on his own, knowing naturally how to avoid danger.

[Run further...the farther the better...don't be caught by humans...]

Kirkel's body was slowly carbonized in the sunlight, turning into debris and slowly disappearing.

……

When the high tide suddenly occurred in New York, the screaming humans had no time to pack up their belongings and ran back to the shore along the beach, but they saw an even more magical scene on the shore.

A city half submerged in the sea.

A city is stranded in New York.

The edge of the huge, dilapidated city is covered with black and green vines growing faintly, like a deep sea demon that incubates monsters during assimilation.

There were screams, there were daredevils who wanted to see what it was like, and there were shouts—

"Where are the superheroes!? What are those superheroes in New York doing all the time?"

There are monsters with wings on their backs, squatting on the roof of the building, and roaring. They are afraid of the sun, but as long as it is dark, the whole city is their hunting ground.

Rhine suddenly trembled slightly, and turned to look at the cold wall.

She didn't specifically show her gentleness and harmlessness to the few people in front of her, but she was indeed not a bad child—she was enduring, after all, the current situation had not yet reached her tolerance threshold.

She waited silently for the Chaoying team to finish their discussions, wait for them to discover the events in New York under the satellite monitoring, wait for them to receive the communication and request from Amanda Waller, wait for them to be ready to go, and to return to the place with only one-sided glass and In the room of the monitor, there was a hug from Clark and a meaningful gaze from Lokin.

"Can I go and see what this world is like?" Rhine was a little depressed, "It doesn't seem to be the same as my world."

Clark was silent for a while: "Is it okay after everything is over?"

When will we wait?She looked at Tim Drake through the monitor for a moment, then lowered her head, and sat down obediently with her knees leaning against the glass. Rhine neither loves nor hates heroes. She spread her palms on the glass, After taking it away, she saw her palm print on the glass, and the mark disappeared soon, but she looked at it for a long time.

Tim poured a cup of coffee, but was snatched away by Damian who suddenly appeared behind him. The two looked at each other. Tim took the cup back with a blank expression, and manipulated the little robot to deliver food to Rhine—— They couldn't keep her from eating.

But Rhine hugged his knees and didn't respond at all, as if he had fallen asleep.

Damian watched it for a while, and suddenly asked, "Where is the vent connected?"

Tim stood up, but immediately sat back, tapped a few times in front of the monitor, and the complicated ventilation ducts emerged, while the little robot put down the dinner plate and pushed Rhine with a little more force.

The little girl's body slipped from her back against the glass and shattered like crystal.

"The infrared response is always there, why is she..." Tim suddenly stopped talking, watching the image of Rhine leaning against the wall on the infrared detection screen.

"Okey." Tim exhaled, Damian sneered, turned and left.

……

Rhine took a breath of free air.

Then plunged into the sea water, she didn't need to breathe, the fish kissed her skin, and then left a little bored, while Rhine stepped on the fine white sand and looked up at the water above her head.

It was very quiet underwater. She adjusted the density of her body, and then... "kneaded" herself into a dolphin. The light-colored dolphin shuttled across the shallow sea, breaking through the white waves. Rhine didn't know herself very well. She wanted to go somewhere, but she just didn't want to be locked up, even if they didn't lock her up with malicious intent.

She just couldn't stand the loss of her freedom.

Rhine went ashore on a strange island. Her clothes have always been made of red crystal. Everyone in the city is like this. She doesn't think there is anything wrong. There is no difference between people, Rhine felt a little at a loss, she sat down cross-legged, not knowing where to go for a while.

Yes, of course she can go anywhere, Rhine squinted at the sun for a while, and just as she was about to take off, Alice fell from the sky.

"If you just fly in the sky like this, you will be shot down by humans as an unknown flying object." The lady smiled helplessly, and stretched out her hand, "I'm Alice."

"Rhine," the little girl stared at her hands for a while, put her hands behind her back, and looked up at Alice critically for a while, "Rhine El."

"Is there a goal?" Alice didn't mind her attitude, but laughed, "Nowhere to go, huh?"

Rhine looked at her silently for a while: "You came to me, what do you want to tell me?"

The people "outside" are really complicated and simple. As long as you think in advance that they all have a purpose in your heart, you can easily infer their emotional orientation. Clark looked at Rhine with empathy, and Tony looked at Rhine. Rhine is always vigilant... What is Alice for?There is no love for no reason in the world.

"I don't know either." Alice made an inviting gesture, and a helicopter hovered above the two of them. "I felt very kind the moment I saw you. I think we have some kind of connection."

The helicopter did not descend, nor did it hang down the rope ladder, neither of them cared, as if they had some kind of tacit understanding, and at the same time shattered into crystals, the helicopter obediently lifted into the air, Alice still maintained her crimson appearance, but Rhine did not, she seemed to be teasing Ban asked, "Are you going to take me to the base camp of your organization?"

Alice held her chin, touched it casually, took out a box of cranberry biscuits, and handed it to Rhine: "We don't have any base camp. Gotham is a place where we often meet, and the metropolis is the nearest battlefield... But we are not like superheroes." Heroes have bases and stuff like that."

"Oh……"

Alice seemed to be explaining to her: "Some of my father's creations will still assume their own responsibilities after birth...that is, after they become conscious, such as being a railroad track, or a blind guide stick, every thought of life They're all different, and Dad doesn't force them to do something."

It's like a dying man on the battlefield begging Lenat to combine him with the toy robot he wanted to give to his son. After that, he can be by his son's side forever - but after he became a robot In fact, he got a new life and forgot everything in the past. After Nat sent the robot to the man's son, he never cared about it again. As for the follow-up, he didn't care.

—Compared to so many of his creations, this is nothing more than a random effort worth mentioning.

"Then where are we going?" Rhine opened the biscuit and put it in his mouth, then his eyes lit up.

"Well... Kuta will take you to Kansas, which should be your mother's hometown," Kuta is the plane, and Rhine was slightly taken aback, and Alice continued, "I'm leaving, my father is calling I."

This was clearly a temporary call.

After leaving a certain distance, Alice agreed to the teleportation of a family member who could teleport through space.She was vigilantly aware that she could not let Lennart know about her meeting with Rhine, so she even wanted to hide it from most of the "people" in the family, but this is quite strange, these creatures don't even understand the "hiding" of the matter itself meaning.

Then, turning around, she found herself in New York.

But New York is different.

Too silent.

The bitter wind blew away the mist that floated from the sea, and Chaoying and the creators tacitly did nothing.

Because compared to the enemy, the sudden appearance of the city is more important.

They both recognized what it was--and thus with a curious wariness of disbelief.

That's the lost city, Baltimore.
