K-type Mage

The ambulance whined and sped through the streets late at night, and the unconscious woman covered in blood was carefully carried into the car by the medical staff.

On the other side, there were two pairs of eyes silently watching this scene.

"Won't it be discovered that something is wrong?" Spider-Man muttered, just a drop of the potion brought her back from the dying situation - including the condition of the bones, "but..."

"...It's really hard to drink."

"It's hard to drink?" Red Hood, who was maintaining the gun beside him, asked with great interest, "Describe it to me."

"I feel like I've lost my sense of taste," Spider-Man said sincerely. "I can't find the right words to describe it...I'm sorry, but it's really a good medicine." He pulled the tights on his body and stood up , "Do you know what that is? Red Hood."

"Why should I tell you? The tights are made from pajamas."

"Hey! You can't say that, I'm the popular Spider-Man!"

"Aren't you going home to sleep?" Red Hood inserted his guns back and looked at him with a frown. "Tomorrow is not Sunday."

"You can't change the subject! I have experienced it myself, at least I have the right to know the truth!"

"...It's really troublesome. Do you usually read books or play games?"

"...Huh? Ah, yes."

"Then do you think the image of this monster is familiar?" asked the young man who threw and caught the crystal ball.

Spider-Man was stunned, nodded and said: "When I saw the appearance, I really had such a feeling..."

"That's enough." Red Hood said bluntly, not wanting to waste his time at all—although he was a little surprised that the other party actually came into contact with those, "Go back and check "Cthulhu" by yourself. "

"Cthulhu? I think that Cthulhu?"

"Otherwise there is no Cthulhu. Okay, you should go back to sleep." The red hood urged, like an old woman who is trying to get a habitual late-night criminal to go to bed, with a bad tone but strangely harmless.

"...you're such a nice guy, Red Hood," Spider-Man said.

These words came from the heart without thinking through the brain, but they were obviously repelled by the red hood who issued the "good person card" like this, and even felt a little disgusted: "Do you want me to shoot you?!"

"I'm sorry!" Spider-Man quickly turned around and shot out the spider web and left, "Thank you very much!"

Red Hood clicked his tongue, thinking that the brat is trouble.When the crystal ball was put away, he hesitated for a moment, seriously considering whether to give Spider-Man a sweep so that no one could follow the blood.But that woman also had Spider-Man's blood on her body... It's impossible for the Avengers to ignore this clue.

... The kid's vigilance is really bad.

He sighed, still took out the reagent and returned to the previous alley with the light on.

Spiderman is a new street hero in New York. Due to his obvious age and approachable chatter, fans have a wide range of ages; Jason Todd also checked it before coming to New York, and analyzed from the video that the other party may be experienced Ordinary people who have mutated.

Forget it, just this once, even if it's not much use.Anyway, the Avengers will recruit such young heroes in the future.

……

This is a dead and quiet suburb where the moonlight is difficult to reflect. An old small wooden house stands in the center, like a tomb in the dark night, and the surrounding woods are plaques that have been inserted.

The roar of a locomotive came from a distance, and it passed the meadow covered with strange skunk cabbage[1] and approached the cabin.

Red Hood got off the motorcycle, strode forward and pushed open the unlocked wooden door.

The room was lit with fiery red warm candlelight, which was completely invisible from the outside, but he was not surprised. He raised his hand and threw the crystal ball into the basket on the table. The parabola was perfect, and the sound was crisp and full.

The black-haired young man sitting silently on the chair raised his head slowly and nodded, "Thank you, Jason."

"You're really free." Jason Todd took off his hood and said angrily, thinking of the special skunk cabbage outside, he frowned, "Is the situation here really resolved?"

"Well, it's solved, but it's a bit difficult to recover the vitality." Yuan Shen said, his eyes did not stay on the newly added red crystal ball in the basket, "After all, it is a superior independent race."

Unlike the local monsters in other worlds, the races of alien planets... can't directly inject energy to restore the whole as before in Yayuan.If the methods are too rough, this land will really become a complete wasteland, and it is currently recovering gently and slowly.

"Here is the "Color of the Stars", tonight is the "Essence of the Stars", alien creatures are really dangerous. [2]" Jason grabbed another chair and sat down, "So...infiltrated from another universe? "

When he was brought here by Yuan Shen before, he learned what happened here. The same thing as Lovecraft wrote happened on this piece of fertile land that was about to be developed into a rich farm; Yuan Shen prevented the situation from spreading: He bought the land and stayed in the cabin.

"There's a guy who opened the door." Yuan Shen said, his tone could not hear the emotion, "I know the background, and there are people who dare to call. Those hydra." He lowered his head again, "I'm sorry to tell you Trouble."

"This is an egoistic attitude." Jason said coldly, "So when are you going to reveal the identity of the enemy?"

"Whether it is a god or an old friend of yours, it should be explained carefully."

"You know, I told Batman." Yuan Shen said, "Yuen, my former best friend, another young man in that photo."

"It's not just your best friend." Jason didn't really want to expose the other party's scars and sprinkle salt on them, but the more calm the other party behaved, he became inexplicably angry, "Your tacit understanding is reflected in this place? He is using your weakness to act secretly, are you really staying here?!"

In appearance, these are two young people of similar age, but their moods and expressions are completely different.

Yuan Shen refuted his words with a good temper, saying: "I have something to do."

Jason: "..." Didn't refute the "tacit understanding"? ? ?

He was a little speechless for a while.

The other party laughed and said, "I'm really happy that you can trust me."

"...I didn't believe you." Jason Todd, who didn't report to Batman that he accidentally discovered Yuan Shen and "cooperated" afterwards, turned his face a little awkwardly at such frank words .

He knew that if the other party really wanted to stop him, he might not even have the chance.

An overly frank mystic, it sounds very contradictory, but Jason really looks at Yuan Shen in this way; it seems that he can answer every question, but his skill of avoiding the most important ones is perfect, and the other party is in a dominant position in the amount of information, so that even Make sure the other person isn't lying, and have to wonder if there's something more important that hasn't been communicated.

——Such a person is very troublesome to deal with.

Because it is completely invisible.

He leaned back on the chair discouraged, and said, "I have convinced you. Did you have this kind of personality before? When you were still on Earth."

"It's not quite like...probably." Yuanshen blinked at the topic he changed, and accepted it tolerantly, "After all, it's been too long, and the memory is easy to confuse. There are also growths in other worlds."

Jason somehow remembered the bland-haired young man's faint but genuine smile in that photo.

Compared with the smile of the traveler in the city of the dead and the young man in front of him at this moment, there is indeed a subtle indifference; the dark-skinned young man beside him seems very enthusiastic and friendly, and it is almost conceivable that he is dragging his friend to take a picture.

The difference in personality at that time, is the heat melting the ice?

"You...Why did you become close friends with him?" He couldn't help asking.

"At that time, my personality was a bit bad, and I was of the iceberg type." Yuan Shen said gently, satisfying the young man's curiosity, and at the same time supplementing the background, "It can be said that I had to keep dating because I was pestered." [3 ]

"I sent him a lot of things," he said, with a look of reminiscence. "The bell, the puppet, and that photograph."

Jason, who was listening to the old man's story about the past, was a little surprised and asked, "You sent the photo? You asked to take a photo?"

"That's right." Yuan Shen looked at him with some puzzlement, and didn't quite understand why he raised this question. "At that time, the cameras were already in the streets and alleys, so I dragged him there."

"Why is that you……?"

"He and I are close friends, can't we?" The attitude of the answer is quite righteous, "When it comes to a close friend, I devote myself to maintaining the friendship with him!"

"..." It's not a question of whether it's possible, isn't it the type of personality you said is Bingshan, why can you still take the initiative to pull the other party to the photo studio?The expression on the photo is still the same.Jason was silent for a while, at first he was dumbfounded by misunderstanding, and then he realized one thing from the other party's narration - the other party really cherished his best friend, but they had become enemies at this moment.

Batman and others who have only been in contact with Yuanshen once only know "they are friends from friends to enemies" from Jason's description and his brief summary, so they don't know it in detail; but Jason not only saw it in his dream "Orpheus", who crossed the River Styx just for the soul of his best friend, has had close contact with himself since then, and his understanding has been even deeper.

So, just like the copy of the photo he brought with him that day, he was genuinely confused.But he knew he couldn't get an answer.

Yuan Shen looked at the young man on the chair, and belatedly realized that the answer he gave in accordance with his heart and truth seemed to make people more entangled in the "friendship of loving and killing each other".

...he swears it wasn't his intention.Really, after all, I am so disgusted at this time to have another conversation with Nyarlathotep on "the attitude that should be between close friends".The other party is always like that, they are not that familiar yet—just a one-sided understanding.

"I always feel...you are more than a simple confrontation of ideas." Jason said, who gave up thinking about the relationship between best friends. In fact, he had long wanted to complain about the reason why the other party said to Batman "become an enemy", it was only for human beings. The different attitudes lead to this, which is impossible no matter how you think about it, not to mention that "Yuen", who has never appeared in real life until now, is completely messing around in secret, not at all ostentatious, but an oriental girl has appeared on the scene.

In order to cover up the existence of "Nyarlathotep", Yuan Shen did not reveal the identity of the oriental girl on the Ferris wheel and "that strange young man", but he did not know that the other party deduced it from this, and it was not surprising to hear that, and said: " That's one of the reasons."

——In fact, it is also the root cause.

The author has something to say: [1] Plants growing in temperate swamps and meadows emit an unpleasant stench.In "Colors from the Stars", due to the mutation of "Color of the Stars", it becomes weird.

[2] "Color of the Stars" is the upper-level independent race in Lovecraft's "Colors from the Stars"; "Star Spirit" is a lower-level race in "Things from the Stars" by Robert Bullock Independent races, the two are easily confused.
