During Those Years When I Was A Marvel Superhero Chapter 65: Strange world and mysterious hood man
This is really a strange world. Li Jie wore a Night Traveler's gray hood and stood on the moon dew tower in the moonlight city of dawn.
There is no difference between the black and black asphalt pavement and the road pavement paved with a roller. There are also street lamps standing on both sides of the street. Although they are only kerosene lamps, this is enough to provide enough light for pedestrians walking on city roads in the dark.
Most of the houses on both sides of the street are relatively low. Two-storey and three-storey houses are the most common. There are few high-rise buildings. Except for a huge dome-shaped building towering in the center of the city with a height of about sixty meters, other houses are rarely more than twenty meters high.
The tallest building in the city is Yuelu Bell, which is 280 meters tall, which is where Li Jie stands now. Standing here, you can see the whole city's scenery.
The city has walls, and the architectural style is very similar to the European architectural style of the late Colonial era of the Renaissance. Large blocks of granite or similar cornerstones are used as basic materials. There are also water-polished decorative marble slabs, some of which are hung on the outer wall for decoration, but more are still used as floors in high-end buildings.
From the perspective of architectural style, let's take a more visual analogy, that is, the architectural style of the old western building on the Bund.
The city also has walls on all sides, not a true open city. The 30-meter-high city wall divides the entire city into two areas, inside and outside.
These buildings give Li Jie an indescribable sense of violation. You can think of a part of this city as Europe in the fifteenth century, but another part is like 19th Century Europe.
What is more surprising is the language of this world. Li Jie noticed that this world uses English. It is not the kind of British English or American English that Li Jie uses on the earth.
It's a more traditional Old English. Compared with modern English, Old English is like vernacular Chinese compared to classical Chinese. From grammar to word-sentence formation.
If it was not because when I was with Lan, I had learned a section of Old English to read the Kamar-Taj collection, then Li Jie would now have a hard time trying to understand the text of this world.
Li Jie feels that if he had to define this world, then this term would be appropriate. Because he saw someone use a staff to swing a magic ball like a fireball in the swing room.
I also saw some huge machines that did not know what power source was used to drive the steel parts.
Someone is wearing clothing made of artificial chemicals, such as artificial leather. This proves that the basic chemistry of this world has developed to a certain extent, otherwise it is impossible to manufacture articles such as artificial leather.
Li Jie stood far above the moon dew bell and looked far away. He could see a few chimneys at a distance of ten kilometers from the northeast corner of the city. Li Jie suspected that there should be a factory.
The long oil road has been extended from the urban area, and it has been extended further after reaching the factory area. On the oil-parking road, there are horse-drawn carriages and some cars with mechanical power structures.
Li Jie is not sure if he can call a car because the ghost knows whether these cars burn gasoline.
& It ’s weird. In Howard ’s notebook, about a group of numbers followed by words, I can only assume that the calculation is presumed to be latitude and longitude. "Li Jie opened the invisible device and jumped from the moon dew clock.
It was only when no one noticed that the invisible device was closed, showing a figure, walking on the streets of Yuelu City, he looked at this strange world and thought: "Howard random random numbers seem to be a calculation Drafts randomly typed during equations. The numbers are messy and unrelated. If it ’s not because I ’m sensitive enough to the word di. "
& And after seeing that Howard was mentioned in Newton ’s previous miscellaneous records, then I ’m afraid I wo n’t even notice whether there is a connection between the two. "Li Jie was walking on the road while holding his chin. Unconsciously, he walked to the door of a tavern with a sign.
He stood there and continued to think: "Through the measurement of latitude and longitude, there is no clear discovery on the earth. But when I left Earth One last time, I thought about whether someone is like me, In other dimensions, there is a back door that is convenient to come back again. "
& The idea seems correct. Is it only the guardian who can enter this special half-dimension, or the powerful powers like Newton and Gu Yi? But what tricks are Howard and Newton playing? "Li Jie is not very sure.
But now his curiosity is completely ignited, and he wants to know what Newton did before. Who is the former owner of his pendant? What role does Howard Stark play? Does all this have something to do with Tony Stark?
All these things make Li Jie very curious, and curiously made him take a small trip. Until Arrizo pressed his waist with a short-barreled musket.
The footsteps in the tavern are already very messy. Arrizo is just an ordinary patrolman, and there is nothing worth noting about him. Li Jie couldn't even feel any dangerous breath from his upper body.
The power of the short-barreled rifle equipped with Arrizo is not even comparable to the large-caliber pistol on earth. But it is Arrizo's most effective support, but this short-barreled musket can only fire two rounds and needs to be reloaded, so as a supplement to the force, he also needs to wear a bow and arrow and a short knife.
When Arrizo was complacent for grasping a viable goal (cult idiot), the person he caught was not very cooperative.
The lazy voice is very unpleasant: "Asir, do you want me to stay still, or do you want me to turn around? Your commands make me confused."
Arizo ca n’t understand what sir means, but he clearly hears a ridicule in the other person ’s tone.
This makes him feel that he has been despised, and a stupid who believes in an old cult still dares to despise himself?
Ai Ruize said fiercely: "Tell you not to move, turn around for me! Do you not understand? Let me see your face!"
The gray hooded man continued: "Are you sure?"
Arizo put a hood on the hood and said, "I'm pretty sure!"
&, I hope you do n’t regret it. "The hooded man slowly turned around, and he stared at Arrizo. Arrizo was originally prepared to stare fiercely at this cult's fool and scare the other side.
However, as expected, the fact that the other party's eyes were killed did not happen. Because Ai Ruize can't see the eyes of the deal, he should say that he can't see any facial features.
The other person's entire face under the hood can't see anything, just like the same mess of chaos. Just like the legendary faceless monster.
Arizet ’s training for ten years has allowed him to pull the trigger of the musket for the first time, and he has made two consecutive shots.
Bang ~ Bang! The huge musket gun sounds overwhelmed the music and noise from the axe bar, and many drinkers swarmed out of the bar to see the source of the gunshots.
Paul, the owner of the bar, was the first to rush out. He saw Ai Ruize, who was in a daze holding a musket, and asked, "You just shot? Ai Ruize?" Many patrol members, and many old residents in this area know him.
& Who is attacking? "Paul looked a little surprised at Arrizo. There was only the wall of the bar in front of Arrizo. Two lead projectiles were deformed and embedded in the wall.
& I just found a cultist, and I wanted to arrest him, but he suddenly disappeared. "Ai Ruize stammered. He did not know what happened between the electric light flint.
Paul glanced at Arrizo suspiciously, and then said: "But there is no one else here. Are you attacking the wall? Or is it because you have been patrolling for too long and hallucinating?"
Ai Ruize opened his mouth but could not say anything. What had just happened was too weird. Even if the magician of the king city comes, I am afraid that he cannot explain everything he just saw.
……………………
& Ai Ruize woke up from a nightmare again, this is his dream in this three days again. The faceless hooded man in his dream smiled strangely at himself, and he could not hit him no matter how he attacked.
Finally, the faceless man pinched his neck and screwed himself to death. This dream is terrible, but after waking up, facing Ariza feels worse.
Because the investigation team was sent from above, there was no breath left by any magic fluctuations in the place where Arize fired, and no breath left by the gods and demons.
This basically excludes ghosts or magicians. Therefore, a diagnostic certificate was issued in the appraisal department of the heart, and Arrizo was an illusion of fatigue caused by overtime.
Because according to the testimony of Ai Ruize's colleagues, Ai Ruize is often obliged to help others work overtime, so the work pressure is too great, so the brain needs a way to vent pressure. So the faceless man who doesn't exist was conceived by the brain.
And that ’s why Arrizo shot outside the bar that day. For this point, the patrol team has basically reached a consensus ~ IndoMTL.com ~ is that Arrizo is under too much work pressure.
Fortunately, because he has always been serious about work, he rarely makes mistakes. This time, he was ordered to deal with an accidental fire. Not all the teams will report criticism and punishment.
& Is it too stressful? "Ai Ruize went to the bathroom and washed himself a cold face. The weather outside was still dark, and the time was five o'clock in the morning. But he couldn't sleep anymore.
& Can I really be wrong. "Arizo stared at herself in the bathroom mirror and talked about herself.
But a voice that caused Erize to have goose bumps all over his body suddenly appeared in the house where he lived alone: "I said, what if you read it right?"
A man in a gray hooded suit who ca n’t see the face completely took a can of beef from the kitchen of Arrizo ’s house and was sitting in the living room of Arrizo ’s, opening the can and sipping it while eating Ai Ruize asked.
& Canned beef! "Ai Ruize's first reaction was that his canned beef was stolen. This kind of canned food is not cheap. It costs ten shillings a can. It is not reluctant to eat during the holiday season.
Then his second reaction was to find the gray-hooded man. He shouted in horror: "It's you!" Arrizo's tone changed a little.
& It is me. But your voice is really special? Is your deputy post Castrated Choir Singer? (Note) "The hooded man turned his head and looked at Arrizo. His face was still chaotic.
Note: Castrated Choir Singer, before modern Bel Canto and Treble singing methods are summed up systematically and scientifically, and before teaching. In the Middle Ages, even the pitch of female singers was difficult to meet the requirements of some operas.
Therefore, in order to train high-pitched singers, the opera troupe castrated the boy when he was young, so as not to enter the voice-changing period, and kept the high-pitched singing of boy voices. On the stage of the theater, go to the actress to sing high notes.
