Dimensional demons mixed in with Marvel

Chapter 27 Maoshan, Shi Jian, Lightning and Thunder!

Long Island, New York.

The low temperature in the underground laboratory brought up a cold mist. Pepper stared blankly at Tony, her slender, pale fingers gently brushing across his cheek.

Then, Pepper bent down.

Soft lips touched cold cheeks, and the incarnations of the boy and the ram appeared alternately. Divine power transformed into golden light and surged into Tony's body, but then dispersed into the air through the fatal spot on his chest.

"Erika, why isn't Tony waking up yet?"

Pepper leaned weakly against the cryo-chamber and wept bitterly.

It's been three days!

Over the course of three days, Pepper repeatedly tried to use the God of War's powers to revive Tony, but she was unsuccessful.

According to Baron Zeppeli, the boy possesses the power to resurrect others, one of the ten legendary incarnations of the God of War.

pity……

This power is only temporary and requires the deceased to be completely unharmed.

Tony Stark can't possibly be alive!

……

Pepper and Erica didn't show up until the afternoon.

They came out of the underground laboratory into the hall, where Happy and Baron Zeppelin, who had been waiting there, quickly went to greet them.

Happy has been crying a lot these past few days. Her already small eyes are swollen into slits, and her chubby body has lost more than ten pounds, making her look slimmer overall.

"Pepper, S.H.I.E.L.D. has arrived, and Captain Rogers is here too. They want to take Tony's body away."

"We need to accept reality. Tony is dead. You can't stay here forever."

The more Happy talked, the more upset he became.

All the burdens fell on Pepper's shoulders.

Now, Happy is even somewhat glad that Pepper went to Sardinia and brought Erica back with her.

Perhaps with Erica's comfort, Pepper might be able to get through this painful period.

Happy prayed fervently in his heart.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Baron Zeppeli quietly pulled Erica away.

"I know Ms. Pepper is in a lot of pain right now, but as her knight, you must remind her."

"Since the war of the gods on Sardinia, the news of the Demon King's birth has gradually spread."

"More and more people from all sides will be sending their representatives, so we probably need to prepare early."

Baron Zeppelin turned his head to look at the silent Pepper and spoke slowly.

"Fate is always unpredictable; once caught in its vortex, there is no escaping it."

……

It was raining continuously, with a light drizzle falling from the sky. In the distance, dark clouds gathered, and lightning flashed.

From a distance, Jack Lockley saw a man standing in front of the platform, standing like a tall pine tree against the dark background, saying nothing.

The scene looked rather strange and eerie, with cars going around it from a distance, as if afraid of getting into trouble.

"Squeak~"

Jack slammed on the brakes, drove straight up to the car, and flung open the door.

"Guest, would you like a car?"

Please, he's already circled the neighborhood several times, and if he doesn't pick up a customer soon, he'll starve to death today.

What's the use of being afraid? If a person starves to death, their life is useless.

You took a taxi driven by Moon Knight Jack and earned a small amount of Mischief Points.

Jack noticed the guest pause slightly, but in the end, he got into the car without saying anything.

He was an old man with a sinister face.

He wore a wide-sleeved robe in black and white, his long hair was tied up high, and he had long black beards on his sideburns and chin. His sword-like eyebrows slanted downwards, giving him an imposing presence.

At the same time, as he got into the car, Jack smelled a faint sandalwood scent, somewhat similar to the smell in Chinatown.

Such uniqueness must mean they are no ordinary people.

The last thing that left such a clear impression on him was the beautiful woman he met in Hell's Kitchen.

Oh, what was her name again?

Thinking of this, Jack's gaze fell on the business card holder on the windshield.

"Linglingtang Cleaning Company".

"Ma Xiaoling".

"There are more and more strange guests coming to New York," Jack casually remarked.

"Guest, you're not going to Hell's Kitchen too, are you?"

"What kitchen? I'm not hungry!"

This is a strange title, so judging from his appearance, he must be a Taoist priest?!

That's roughly how it's said.

Because the landlord seemed to have left behind a lot of strange books in the rented house.

Mysticism, deities, and the like.

Jack would sometimes flip through it, and it would mention Egypt, the moon, and things like that.

Although I couldn't understand most of it, I still managed to remember some words.

"Sir, is this your first time in New York? Where are you from?!"

Like any taxi driver, Jack tried to strike up a conversation.

"Maoshan!"

Okay, suddenly I'm running out of vocabulary, but at this point I can only bite the bullet and keep talking.

"Oh, by the way, you can just call me Jack."

"Shi Jian".

So are all talented and extraordinary people like this?

He always tends to utter words one by one when he speaks, and Jack racks his brains to think of the right words.

"Don't let my appearance fool you, I actually know quite a lot."

"I read about it in a book. You all have some magical spells. What's the word again? Teng, Teng something?"

Jack thought about it carefully, "Oh, soaring through the clouds and turning stones into gold."

Wow!

When it comes to gold, Jack stops stuttering.

"That's amazing! Do you guys not need to carry any money when you go out? Mr. Shi, could you conjure up a piece of gold for me later?"

"Haha, just kidding."

Jack seemed to be trying to tell a lame joke, but Shi Jian showed no sign of laughing.

Upon hearing what the driver said, the Taoist priest touched himself repeatedly.

It seems... I didn't bring any money?!

"A few common, worthless things, don't ask for more, cough cough!"

Just as Shi Jian coughed twice, an unexpected incident occurred.

Perhaps it was because the road was slippery due to the rain that the tires drifted.

Jack's car had just left the station when a figure around the corner crashed straight into it.

"oops……"

A sweet, charming voice rang out.

A girl fell in the rain and landed face down on Jack's front window.

Are you alright?

Jack instinctively slammed on the brakes, and upon closer inspection, his eyes widened in disbelief.

An unparalleled beauty, especially in the rain, a beauty mark that evokes pity.

Is today my lucky day?!

"I see you are burdened with karmic debts. Since that's the case, I'll help you resolve this calamity and use it to pay for your travel expenses."

To offset the fare?!

Before Jack could understand what was going on, the next second, he watched as the old man in the back seat smashed the car window with a punch.

Without any pity, he grabbed the girl's long hair and, like throwing away trash, tossed her into the air.

With a thud, like slapping a pancake, it slammed into the wall on the side of the street.

"You're going to kill her?!"

Jack practically kicked the car door open.

It's utterly unbelievable that such a thin, frail old man could throw a young girl so hard!

Why is that?

Jack couldn't understand it at all, but at the same time, he felt a voice inside him.

An extremely irritable feeling, an unnamed rage is churning within me.

He's really getting angry.

"Ugh...you ruined my plans! I hate it!"

Amidst screams and curses, Mingming's neck was twisted to the side, and his shoulders and spine were smashed.

The girl, with her head bleeding profusely, actually managed to stand up, albeit unsteadily.

"What?!"

Jack was stunned.

A hitchhiking on a rainy night, a strange girl, a series of dismemberment cases—a series of recent cases flashed through my mind.

and so……

"She's not human, she's a ghost."

Sizzle...

Just as he was thinking this, a crackling sound of electricity appeared.

Jack turned his head to look.

The incredible Mr. Shi got out of the car unhurriedly, and lightning seemed to flash around him.

"Hmph, you vile ghost, daring to bewitch me right in front of me, clearly showing you don't respect Maoshan at all."

"Lightning Thunder Fist!"

……

Beneath the rain curtain, thunder seemed to roar.

Meanwhile, at the Freeport dock, as the winch turned, a cargo ship appeared to have hooked up a large cargo.

"Wow, could this be a treasure chest that sank to the bottom of the sea hundreds of years ago?!"

"Hey, be gentle, carry it up here!"

"Don't you think this chest is a bit too long and narrow for a treasure chest?"

Several dockworkers were excitedly discussing the valuable catch they had pulled up.

That is……

The sealed, unusual, ancient-looking reddish-brown coffin.
