In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 1394: The Call of the Stars (20)

In order to be able to communicate with people normally, Xu Shangqi had to bring a handful of sand to their second stronghold.

Actually, they don't need any strongholds, because judging from the current density of monsters, there is no difference between sleeping in a house and on the street, and the terrifying attacks will not be weakened by the blocking of buildings.

But perhaps because of human's instinctive need for shelter from the wind and rain, they finally found the upstairs of a fairly clean coffee shop as a base for the third night.

There is no doubt that this is an improvement, because everyone has fully anticipated what may happen tonight, and they can even have the leisure to prepare things in advance to facilitate communication.

The Scarlet Witch's vision problem can hardly be solved. Such a short period of time is obviously not enough for her to evolve a sharp enough sense of hearing and touch. But fortunately, Jarvis helped her, and Jarvis repeated to her tirelessly. The situation around her, in order not to disturb others, can only whisper close to her.

Although Laili can't hear, he can read lips, because the pronunciation of English is different, and the mouth shape is easier to read, so even if he has no professional training, he can barely understand it.

Xu Shangqi used writing on the sand to restore his communication ability, which is very effective, because for a person who is good at writing Chinese characters, writing English letters quickly can be connected to the end, just like eating and drinking water easy.

When the sky was not completely dark, they had a heated discussion. Xu Shangqi still insisted on his point of view. He wrote on the beach of sand at a very fast speed:

"The disaster will happen at night, so it must have a special meaning, but nothing special will happen at night, except for the illusory stars, there are only dreams left."

"But it is very dangerous to verify this matter." Lai Li disagreed a little. He tried his best to swallow those redundant modifiers back into his stomach. Put it as briefly as possible: "We might go crazy in our dreams."

"I think we have to systematically figure out all the weird things we encounter and prioritize them." Jarvis came up with an extremely sensible plan and immediately put it into practice .

"First is the weirdest attack, its importance is of course A, but the difficulty of investigation is also A, followed by the state of the world, I think it is as important and dangerous as the attack."

"What follows is what we saw in New York City. Its importance and danger should be rated as B, and then the whole story of the disappearance of the monster and the knot in Ancient One's mind should be rated as C. The last thing we have no time to take into account is where Quill and the raccoon went, this matter should be rated as d."

"The more important it is, the more dangerous it is. If we challenge it before collecting enough clues, it is very likely that we will ruin our own lives."

"But we have just come here after all, we are still full of energy, and we can encourage each other and maintain a good attitude. If we waste this precious time on things that are not important enough, it will probably slow us down. The progress caused us to be exhausted here."

"So I think we should start at the intermediate level, which is to investigate the situation in New York City and figure out what the city and the people in the city are doing when the disaster strikes, so maybe it can be partly reveal the nature of the disaster, and perhaps find survivors."

"Although I'm not hopeful about the last point, I think what you said makes sense." Lili nodded and said.

The other two couldn't refute Jarvis's well-founded analysis. Under such circumstances, it was a fluke to have such a rational teammate. So several people began to speculate what happened to New York. What.

"I guess, one day a monster may be parasitic in the human body, and then it may secretly use its tentacles to sow more seeds in other human bodies, and then they will hatch and kill human beings one after another."

Wanda first made a conjecture, but Xu Shangqi shook his head and said, "If that's the case, why haven't many facilities been destroyed? There are no traces of troops or police on the road?"

Wanda frowned and said, "Perhaps, the incident happened so suddenly that the authorities didn't react at all."

"Do you know how many people there are in New York?" Xu Shangqi asked back, he scribbled a string of words in his notebook: "Assuming the infection is done in binary, the time required is beyond imagination, as long as one monster is infected When people see their real bodies, they will definitely cause panic."

"Is it possible that there is an existence that planted seeds in everyone at the same time, and then let them burst out at the same time?" Lai Li looked at the words written by Xu Shangqi and said with a frown.

But Jarvis shook his head and said: "If its ultimate goal is to destroy human beings, since it has the ability to sow seeds in everyone, why not just kill everyone? Or put the seeds Seeding on the heart? The physiological structure of human beings is destined to be unable to resist such an attack."

The discussion reached a stalemate. Obviously, Wanda's "infection theory" that spreads from ten to ten does not conform to what they saw in New York. Very contradictory.

Suddenly Laili had another flash of inspiration, and he said: "Maybe the culprit's purpose is not to destroy human beings, but he just wants monsters?"

"What does it want the monster to do?"

Laili was silent again, and he couldn't figure it out. Judging from the monsters they encountered, these monsters really didn't have many advantages.

"Perhaps, perhaps those powerful monsters have been wiped out by the ancient one." Lai Li tried hard to speculate, he said: "Just like in zombie movies, there will always be one or two special zombies among countless ordinary zombies." Capable."

"No, no, no." Lai Li quickly denied his speculation, he said: "Although Ancient One mage is very strong, if those special monsters are wiped out by her waving her hand, it doesn't seem to be of much use. "

"Don't you think it's weird?" Wanda said suddenly, "Compared to the attacks we suffered at night, those monsters on the road are like babies. The difference in strength between them is too great."

"This kind of monster is unlikely to be made to attack or destroy something, they are more like...more like..."

Wanda searched for an adjective for a long time, but couldn't find it, but Jarvis touched his chin and said, "It's more like a failure."

"If they are failures, what are successes?" Jarvis asked himself, but soon, he shook his head and said, "No, the idea is wrong, there are failures, but it does not mean success products, or rather than failed products, are they more like some kind of... dregs?"

Xu Shangqi's hand froze suddenly, and then he wrote a line of words on the sand at an extremely fast speed: "They are the dregs of fear."

Everyone stared at him with wide-eyed eyes. Xu Shangqi took a deep breath, tried to clear his mind, and began to infer from his rich imagination after watching countless horror movies:

"Have you ever thought about what will happen after we can no longer resist the attack of the night and go completely crazy?"

Everyone froze.

The scarlet witch's fingertips began to tremble non-stop. The biological instinct of a woman made her hate those mucus, tentacles and tumors more than others. Just imagining that he would become that kind of monster already made him breathless. Upset.

"You mean, if we lose to the night, we will become that kind of monster?" Jarvis asked Xu Shangqi's eyes.

But soon he found out the doubt again, he said: "Then isn't this the same as infection? Human beings have different willpower, some people must go crazy early, and some people go crazy late."

"Then the monsters that appeared earlier will definitely attract the attention of the authorities. How come no one resisted armed to the end, but all of them were euthanized?"

Several people were silent again. Obviously, the inference reached a deadlock here again. In any case, one fact cannot be ignored, that is, New York has not actually suffered much damage.

Those collapsed buildings don't look like they were attacked by artillery, but they seem to be abandoned by no one, or they were collapsed by some large monsters. There are no traces of firefights on the road, and most of the cars are It is intact, and many life-critical materials have not been looted.

Although the few people present can be called young heroes, they all clearly realize that human beings are essentially chaotic creatures. If you stick to your kind heart and don't hurt others at all, then why are there so many bad things on earth?

So it is conceivable that in the face of a disaster, huge chaos will definitely occur. When the disaster does not come and there are only rumors, people will panic and hoard supplies, and as long as a monster is photographed, Even with the rapid response of the authorities, small-scale chaos cannot be avoided.

Xu Shangqi, an outsider, is not very optimistic about the organizational capabilities of the New York government, and the three locals are even less optimistic than him. It can even be said that you can feel desperate without looking at it, so there are no traces of firefights in the city. It is a reasoning obstacle that cannot be overcome.

"Do you find it strange? Compared with the doomsday cities we have seen before, this city is too intact."

On the boulevard in New York's Central Park, Quill is discussing similar issues with Rocket Raccoon, and the two of them are obviously more knowledgeable than those few young people who have hardly left the earth~IndoMTL.com ~I am on Longta star, you know, that unlucky star in the centaur..."

"Oh!" Rocket Raccoon yelled suddenly, and said, "It was because of the impact of the orbital change of other planets that it was unfortunately knocked out, and the sun erupted and was knocked out of the galaxy, and then the Kerry Empire who was racing. Did the planetary warship hit the planet in the black hole?"

"That's right, that's it. Although the natives of Centaur like to call it the unlucky star, I prefer to call it the black 8. I'm not even that accurate when I play billiards on Earth."

Recalling the misfortune that happened to this planet, Rocket Raccoon finally showed a long-lost smile. He snorted, and then said: "There are many unlucky stars in the universe, but it is rare to see such unlucky stars."

"You should say that I was unlucky. At that time, I was sent by Yondu to find information on this billiard ball. To be honest, the leaders and residents there are quite good. Although there are not many people and the civilization is not developed, but The response is very fast, and they are united."

"Their only planet shield opened within a few tenths of a second after the impact, so the first round of impact did not cause devastating damage to the planet itself."

"But what's funny is that the younger brother of the civilization leader thought it was his brother's plot to kill him, so he simply killed his brother first, and activated the propulsion device in violation of the regulations. As a result, the people were unprepared and were all killed by a huge The kinetic energy hit the wall and turned into meat sauce."

"What I want to say is that civilization is very fragile under such natural and man-made disasters."

"If you want me to say, human beings are not as united as the people on the billiard ball. In the face of such a big disaster, no one will shoot? Why don't I believe it at all?"
