Superhero Exchange System [Comprehensive British and American]
Chapter 2 Midtown
The superhero disappeared suddenly.
It was the most beautiful sunny day in all of America that day.People in Canterlot are watching The Flash go to his favorite donut shop and buy three big boxes of donuts after arresting the rogues.
"Hey Flash!" Someone greeted him friendly, "I'm your fan!"
The Flash stuffed his mouth full of donuts and waved the same kindly.Like a big hamster stuffed with food.At the same instant, he suddenly disappeared.
Also disappeared at the same time were Superman who was flying over the Metropolis, Captain America running in the center of New York, Green Lantern patrolling outside the Earth, Tony Stark who just held a press conference dressed like a peacock and And Bruce Wayne, who was in a coma in the ward after a great battle.
All the heroes disappeared in an instant.
Then memories of another world popped up in people's minds.
After the hero disappeared, the world changed.At the beginning, all the TV stations kept broadcasting information from another superhero world and questioning where their heroes went, and then, the villains who reacted quickly started the end-of-the-century carnival.
Gotham, New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Star City and other places have fallen.The government is driven out and the people are imprisoned.The streets were empty, and the rest of the people hid in their houses shivering like rats crossing the street.
There are only two places in the United States, and even the whole world, that have not yet completely fallen.
One is Metropolis and the other is Central City.
Lex Luthor became the de facto "mayor" of Metropolis.He seems to have reached an agreement with other villains, and the metropolis has become a quarantine area outside the darkness. Under Luthor's rule, although it is not so beautiful here, it is at least not bad;
The other is Canterlot, which has been taken over by the rogues.
With The Flash gone, the Rogues quickly take over Canterlot before the rest of the villains.The rogue gang headed by Captain Cold still has one of the few consciences in this world—this conscience is especially precious in the last days when other cities even start cannibalism.
Under the management of Captain Cold, Central City implements distribution according to needs, and tries its best to ensure that everyone can still be alive.
And this is much better than other cities.
Emma who has heard the whole situation in this world now: ...
Fuck you just give me a hell mode!Fuck me!
[You landed in Central City just because you are a novice] Seems to know what Emma is thinking, the system responded. 【If you first landed in Gotham...】
Emma hugged her head: "shut up, shut up, I won't listen."
Emma, who was driven out of the hospital, was homeless.
She is now a child with no identity and no registered permanent residence.After she landed in this world, a kind person sent him to Central City Hospital and paid for the medical expenses-now she woke up and left the hospital without knowing where to go.
Emma's stomach let out a hungry scream.
"Hey", suddenly someone patted her on the back, Emma was startled, turned her head, and saw a silver-haired old woman.
"I hear you're probably hungry." The old woman smiled kindly, "I'm also going to get some relief supplies. Do you want to go together?"
Emma nodded gratefully.
On the way, Emma chatted with the old lady.The old woman was Katie Smalley, a native of Central City. When she learned that Emma had no place to live, she invited Emma to live with her, and Emma gratefully accepted.Afterwards, Katie and Emma introduced some of the current situation in Central City:
After the rogue gang took over the central city, they strictly implemented the distribution system according to their needs: they ransacked the homes of the rich in the central city, took over all the supermarkets and food stores in the central city, and called the police at fixed locations every day to distribute food for women and children. They were driven to factories and fields to produce weapons and food.
Wow, chivalrous and courageous gangsters.Emma thought.
Seeing the sudden crowds of people queuing up on the street, Emma knew that they were about to arrive.The line was very long, and the end was almost invisible at a glance, only the shouts from a distance: "Don't crowd, everyone has a share."
Emma and Katie moved slowly with the line.After queuing for nearly an hour, a fat police officer shoved a bag of food to her in a somewhat rude manner.
Emma thanked her and opened the plastic bag: inside were 3 pieces of hard bread, 2 packages of macaroni, 2 eggs and a handful of lettuce.It is indeed a lot worse than usual, but it is still very full during the extraordinary period: Emma who just got the food can't wait to take out the hard bread and start eating. Although her teeth are a little bit gritty, her hungry stomach quickly full up.
Emma and Katie returned to Katie's home with the rest of the food: it was a small house, but it was very warmly furnished, and some ordinary garbage, such as pea jars or potato chip buckets, were thrown away. Katie made large and small pots and planted some roses.Katie took her to a bedroom in the attic — painted sky blue, with a single bed and a small table and chair set.
Emma's eyes were attracted by a photo on the desktop.It was Katie and a young boy, and Katie was holding him, smiling very happily.
Katie followed Emma's gaze and looked over:
"That's my adopted son, Brown." Katie's eyes seemed to sparkle. "He is very good. He was admitted to the journalism department of a university in Midtown when he was 16 years old. When the world just merged, he applied to go to New York for an interview alone. , It's been half a year, I can't contact him at all, if I had known, I wouldn't have let him go..."
Katie's voice trembled.Emma patted her on the shoulder, and it took a while for the old woman to calm down.Katie smiled weakly at Emma:
"Honey, you don't have to worry, you can live here all the time. You need to get familiar with the environment first, I might have to be alone..."
"System", after Katie left the room, Emma immediately communicated with the system in her mind, "Can you check Brown's situation?"
【Not now】The system replied. [After you have accumulated enough 5 points, you can exchange for the 'pager' item] After all, the exchange page was projected in front of Emma, and the card marked "pager" was also specially enlarged.
Emma clicked on the instructions on the pager:
1. This prop can transform the portable items of organisms existing in the same space into receivers;
2. Users need to recall the appearance and name of the receiver before using it, and then they can have a dialogue with the receiver;
3. This product can only be used once a week for 1 hour.
"System." After reading the introduction, Emma took a deep breath, "I have to do a task. Open the task interface."
Katie was the first and only person who gave her home and warmth after she came to this near-doomsday world. Emma was still very afraid of saving the world by redeeming heroes, but she felt At present, something needs to be done to repay this kind old lady—at least, if she knows that Brown Smally is still alive, it will also give Katie great comfort.
And she had to figure it out.
Emma quickly browsed the task interface.
D-level tasks with less than 10 points accounted for the vast majority. Tasks with less than 5 points seem to be relatively simple, such as [delivering lunch to Hart Lane, a second-grade student in Midtown Elementary School], [going to an orphanage to take care of homeless children], etc. Tasks with 2-5 points seem to be relatively simple. There is a certain degree of difficulty: [Go to Seaside City to deliver 10 tons of steel], or [Heal the fracture of Richard Scuh, a resident of Central City]
The difficulty of the C-level tasks has suddenly increased, but they are still at the level that humans can complete, such as [arrest the thief Johnny Walker], [repair the central city laboratory particle accelerator], etc.
However, the B-level missions are gone—now there are only 2 B-level missions in total. Among the 2 B-level missions, one is [capturing the seaside city], and the other is [building a space fortress]
Emma: ...you let me die.
In the end, Emma chose a D-level mission worth 2 points. The location was marked under the mission—less than one kilometer away from Katie’s home. The mission name was "Retrieve Ms. Scarlett Donald's Cat 'Samurai'".Emma and Katie arrived at the task site as quickly as possible after explaining that they were going out for a trip.
Since it was a novice task, the system marked all the tips like a nanny.This mission to find the cat marked the current location of the cat - on the roof of a deserted house.Emma followed the path marked by the system to the inside of the building, and climbed along the chimney to the roof.The chimney was full of thick ashes. During the climbing process, Emma couldn't cover her mouth and nose, coughing all the time, and finally climbed to the roof along the small pipe.
"Samurai" is not far away.
The black and white cow cat yelled helplessly on the roof, and Emma kept calling the warrior's name, but the cat glanced at Emma, but didn't move, it just wailed.Emma's heart sank, she walked up the chimney to the roof, and tremblingly walked towards the cat.
Emma is now about 10 meters above the ground, and her mind is dizzy for a while.The cat was not far away, she slowly crawled to the side of the cat, and hugged the "samurai" with trembling hands.
It wasn't until Emma handed the cat to the silver-haired old woman in a wheelchair that she felt her back was drenched in cold sweat.
"Thank you." The old woman hugged "Samurai" gratefully, and "Samurai" purred comfortably in her arms.Afterwards, the old lady held Emma's hands.
"Children." She whispered. "Since my daughter died, all I have left is 'Samurai'. He is so important to me. If he is gone, I can no longer live in this world. Now everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, and no one will help me .Son, thank you, thank you so much."
It feels weird.
Emma didn't do anything amazing, she didn't save a nuclear disaster, sign a peace deal or arrest top criminals like the Joker, she just saved a cat.On the side, however, she saved a life.
Just as Emma was immersed in warmth and pride, the system suddenly responded:
[Ding—Save the Cat 'Samurai' 2 credits credited]
[Ding——Complete the novice task, double points and 4 points will be credited to the account]
[Host Emma Karis currently has 6 points.Whether to exchange for 'pager' props]
Emma was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect to have bonus points besides mission points.Then she excitedly clicked on the exchange screen: "Exchange!"
At the same time as clicking, Emma found that he had already held a walkie-talkie-like machine in his hand.Emma stabilized her excitement, hurried back to Mrs. Smally's house, and closed the door after reaching his attic room.
"Connect to Brown Smalley." Emma's voice trembled slightly due to excitement.
Brown Smalley is living in the scientific research building of Midtown High School in Queens, New York City.
This middle school with the same name as his hometown accepts a small number of homeless people in New York City.Two days ago, the dormitory building of the school was affected by the turf war between the Red Skull and the King and had been destroyed. He and some people had to move into the scientific research building.
Brown continued to write about New York.He recorded all the events in a diary that he carried at the beginning-his photographer partner had died in the bombing two days ago, and now the interview team was left by himself.Brown's qualities as a journalist determined to convey what was happening in New York City to the masses, even with the primitive pen as a weapon.
As he was writing, the "Central City Television" badge on his chest suddenly lit up.
Brown's complexion changed suddenly. He thought it was another villain in New York who made the bomb weapon. Just as he was anxiously taking off his tattered coat and was about to throw it out of the window, a female voice came from the badge——
"Brown Smalley?"
Emma called three times, but no sound came from the intercom.Emma immediately had a bad premonition in her heart, but the other side suddenly said——
"who are you?"
The voice was tired and vigilant.
"I'm Emma Carris, and I'm currently staying at Mrs. Smalley's house. Are you Brown?" Emma asked.
Hearing this, Brown's voice became even more excited:
"Please don't hurt her, my house... I don't have anything in my house. Please..."
"You misunderstood." Emma was ashamed, "Ms. Smally saved me and is my benefactor. She misses you very much, and I also got in touch with you through special channels. You are still alive, it is really too much alright."
Only then did the person on the other side let out a long sigh of relief.
"Thank you..." Brown's voice trembled after the tense relaxation, "How is my mother? Please help me take good care of her."
"I will." Emma replied solemnly, "Where are you now? How is the current situation?"
"I was in Midtown High School. There is a base here for homeless people like us who come to New York. The situation in New York is very peaceful. Many people died and many people were homeless."
The word Midtown High School made Emma feel very familiar.In the blink of an eye, she remembered something——
"Brown, do you have a man named Peter Parker here?"
Emma just asked casually, and didn't expect any response.Superheroes have already become data lying in the system.
"Peter?" Brown asked suspiciously, "Are you talking about Peter Parker, a sophomore in Midtown High School? He is here, and has been staying with us for the past two days."
It was the most beautiful sunny day in all of America that day.People in Canterlot are watching The Flash go to his favorite donut shop and buy three big boxes of donuts after arresting the rogues.
