American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

"Give up, Emma, ​​I will end your pain, trust me."

Zhang Yi said seriously as he looked at the woman in front of him who was lucky enough to have awakened telepathy, but unfortunately was tortured by telepathy to the point of becoming a human being.

"What can you end my pain with?"

"Use this." Zhang Yi took out a pistol, the same one used to kill Nick Fury. "Of course, the premise is that you have to remove the diamondization on your body, otherwise the bullet will not be able to penetrate."

"You're dreaming!" Before Zhang Yi could finish speaking, Emma screamed and interrupted his words, then roared and rushed towards Zhang Yi with hands and feet, like a furious beast, or a bloodthirsty beast. of devil.

Zhang Yi raised his left hand, and the particle beams instantly converged.

Zhang Yi was always ready to respond to Emma's actions. When Emma acted, Zhang Yi's particle beam had already been gathered and was waiting to be launched.

pong!

With a flash of golden light, Emma's body suddenly stopped halfway. The next moment, her figure was instantly blasted away by a huge repulsive force. The speed was faster than her previous forward speed, and finally fell heavily on the ground again. on the ground.

"Stop resisting. Although this thing can't cause you any harm, fortunately it has a strong knockback effect. You can't rush over." Zhang Yi waved his hand and revealed the steel suit in his sleeves.

"Really?" Emma smiled ferociously while lying on the ground. "Then try blocking them."

As Emma finished speaking, a soft, ethereal laughter like a child suddenly sounded in the corridor, and then, pale mist filled the air from the darkness.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi couldn't help but take half a step back, but he quickly became firm and moved his retreating foot back to its original position.

"Is this the scene Pietro saw just now? It's really scary, just like watching The Grudge or The Resurrection of the Clown in VR." Licking his dry lips, Zhang Yi stared at Yue Yue. The thicker the fog.

Feeling a sense of dizziness coming over him, Zhang Yi made a quick decision and fired several shots at the looming figure in the mist. The muzzle of the gun sprayed flames. The figure in the mist suddenly shook and was defeated by the bullets.

But before Zhang Yi could come to his senses, the scattered phantoms came together with the rolling mist and re-formed into human form. At the same time, weird laughter kept ringing around, as if... He was laughing at Zhang Ye's overestimation of his abilities.

"It's useless. This is a power composed entirely of mental power. It has been in their bodies since you entered my territory. They are everywhere, and physical attacks cannot defeat them."

Emma is hidden in the mist. Since she is in a diamond state at the moment, she is not affected by the surrounding mental forces at all.

Zhang Yi didn't react much when he heard this, but judging from the beads of sweat on his forehead, he knew that his situation at this time was not good.

These fogs are not a manifestation of the power of telepathy, which shows that Emma's human experiment was unsuccessful, because if these children can really awaken the talent of telepathy, then they will be controlled by the other party in an instant without this protective ability. He didn't even have the strength to resist.

But in a sense, Emma's experiment is not a failure, because these tragic children are already dead at this moment, and their souls and resentments are softened with the shallow mental power activated by Emma, ​​and as they die There are more and more people, and this energy is getting bigger and bigger.

They usually sleep underground in the orphanage, but when someone enters here, they will become their "hunting" targets.

Emma is not afraid of these mental powers because of her diamondization and helmet protection. However, Zhang Yi is just an ordinary person. Facing this strange power, he can't help but feel a little nervous.

Zhang Yi shot several ghost phantoms again. Although he knew that this was a useless effort, Zhang Yi had no other choice. He could not use the particle beam of the palm cannon to attack, because Zhang Yi did not know that the particle beam would affect these strange monsters. Can things cause harm.

Moreover, Emma was watching eagerly in the fog not far away. The palm cannon could not fire continuously. It took several seconds to recharge after firing once. And these short few seconds were enough for Emma to rush in front of her and kill her. shredded.

Zhang Ye understood that this was the moment Emma had been waiting for.

So Zhang Yi quickly gave up using particle beams. On one side, he used the charged palm cannon to guard against Emma, ​​who could attack him at any time. On the other side, he rushed into the mist to fight back, trying to stop these mental powers from eating into his thinking. .

Fortunately, although these powers are large enough, the way they attack people is extremely single.

Just like boiling a frog in warm water, it will trap the prey in its own 'body'. As time goes by, it will greatly consume the opponent's physical strength and spirit. When the prey can no longer bear it, it will impact the prey's spirit. world, turning the other party into a mindless walking zombie.

Zhang Yi quickly calculated the speed at which this power would erode him. The shadows and whispers getting closer and closer made Zhang Yi a little impatient, but he quickly calmed down his emotions.

In fact, after Pietro entered here, Zhang Yi followed closely behind him. Logically speaking, both of them were affected at about the same time, but it was obvious that Pietro was affected much more than himself. .

At first, Zhang Yi thought it was because Pietro was a mutant and he was an ordinary person, so the main target of the attack was Pietro, and he was safe only when Pietro blocked most of the firepower.

But now that I think about it, it seems that this is not the case. Although Zhang Yi has no experience in dealing with supernatural forces in his memory, judging from the most basic rules, these forces invaded the two of them without being affected. It should be treated equally.

so.

Zhang Yi's eyes lit up and he suddenly thought of the answer - speed!

The biggest difference between himself and Pietro is undoubtedly speed. Pietro is a fast person. He moves and thinks very quickly. His brain collects and processes information much faster than his own, so the corresponding Yes, the consumption is also large.

Is this the truth behind the attack by these forces? The corners of Zhang Yi's mouth raised slightly. "I already know how to deal with these things. As long as I empty my mind, don't think about what is there and what is not, and minimize my mental internal friction, there is nothing I can do about these things."

Hearing this, Emma was stunned for a moment. She looked at Zhang Yi's face filled with disbelief. This was the first time Zhang Yi saw this expression on Emma's face.

"I know what you want to do, but it's useless. I just need to focus on you with all my heart. You can't break through to me." Zhang Yi said warily to Emma.

"I have to say, you really surprised me. You are very smart, Zhang. I can't help but fall in love with your brain." Emma took a deep look at Zhang Yi and showed a stiff smile. "But do you think you won?"

Emma stretched out her arms, and the shadows in the mist seemed to be attracted to her, gathering around her.

"So what if you slow down the consumption, you are already trapped here, how long can you delay? One minute, ten minutes, or half an hour? You will still die in the end, oh no, you won't die - you Will stay and join our family.”

"It won't take that long." Zhang Yi tilted his head and said with a smile. "I've caught my last train."

The words have not yet finished.

A figure suddenly appeared next to Zhang Yi. The moment the figure appeared, the fog behind him suddenly exploded, as if it was torn apart by a silver lightning with incomparable brute force. A hole was made, and the mist was separated in the blink of an eye, leaving a passage leading straight into darkness.

"What!?" Emma's eyes widened, as if she had thought of something.

"You came at the right time, Pietro." Zhang Yi knew the identity of the person standing behind him without looking back. It was at this moment that Zhang Yi finally let go of his hanging heart.

Pietro did not answer immediately. Instead, he walked up to Zhang Yi and tapped the helmet on his head with his fingers. This helmet was made of metal that blocked telepathy. Wearing this helmet, Pietro can use his abilities here unimpeded.

"I got the things, let's go quickly, I don't want to stay here any longer."

"as you wish."

Zhang Yi jumped onto Pietro's back without saying a word. The exchange between the two lasted only a few seconds. By the time Emma reacted from the shock, Zhang Yi was already lying on Pietro's back and was pointing at him. She blew a kiss from a distance.

"No--"

Emma stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to grab something, and also wanted to stop Zhang Yi and Pietro, but unfortunately, as soon as she raised her hand, the figures of the two people opposite them disappeared in a breath. A speed that the naked eye cannot keep up with.

With her mouth open and gasping for breath, Emma's eyes were left with two lines of blood and tears. She looked at the empty darkness, where there were traces of Zhang Yi, as if everything was an illusion.

"No!!!!"
