American Comics: Beginning with Luke the Maker

Chapter 389 The Dementor [Part [-]]

"Then what are they going to do now?" Nick tentatively used the ring to send out a few energy attacks, but these attacks fell on the five monsters chasing behind, like a breeze blowing, they retreated and even stopped for an instant. None of the actions were taken.

Unwilling to give up, Nick changed a method. He shaped the energy into a rope, and circled the black monster in the front, but the energy turned into nothingness the moment it came into contact with the opponent's body.Nick took a step back with an ugly expression.

"It swallowed up my energy." Nick didn't want to believe this possibility, but the fact reminded him.He also felt Stephen's headache now.

"What else can we do? Can we still run away? It would be nice if Dr. Banner was here. He and Hulk might still be useful. Maybe these monsters are afraid of simple physical attacks?" Stephen waved his hands and said twice A red fan-shaped shield appeared on his hand.

Ring of Raggador.

It had been a while since he had used this magic.

"You want to engage in close combat with this thing?" Nick is no longer a novice in mysticism. Although he doesn't know how to do it, he has dealt with the magicians of Kama Taj a lot, and he knows a lot about Kama. The fighting method under the Taj magic system.Seeing the two familiar fan-shaped rings in Stephen's hands, his eyes widened and he felt that Doctor Strange was simply crazy.

At first glance, those black monsters can only show their corresponding lethality if they get close. The safest way for them is to stay away from them and keep a sufficient distance from them, even if it is a kite.Fighting close to them is a bit too risky anyway.

"I just want to test the reality." Doctor Strange waved his hands, and several magic figures appeared around him. Some of them also held the Ring of Raggador in their hands, and some rushed forward. , released Cytorak's crimson chain, and tied up a black monster approaching.At the same time, the remaining mage phantom rushed forward waving the Ring of Raggarol and attacked the bound monsters.

But soon, Dr. Strange Stephen's expression was filled with helplessness, because his attack did not have the desired effect and only forced the opponent back again.Depending on the situation, the other party didn't even suffer much damage, or simply said, there was no injury at all.

"This is trouble." Stephen smiled bitterly.

The two of them seemed to have angered the black monsters, or were overjoyed to be found after their attacks exposed their figures. The five black monsters almost accelerated their speed and rushed over.The leader was also dragging several of Stephen's mage phantoms.The chains bound by the power of the crimson dimension seemed to have no corresponding effect other than wrapping them in a layer.

"Let's talk about our feelings later. I think we have to start escaping! If Luke's core laboratory can't be reached, I think Luke's collection room is a good place." Nick took two steps back, his body surging with energy. With the help of Yi, he was suspended in mid-air.

"That's indeed a nice place." Stephen nodded in agreement.The levitating cloak on his body immediately couldn't wait to drag its master away in a certain direction again.The curves of the two people's movements drew one curved arc after another in the air.

Seeing the prey escaping again, the black monster screamed angrily.The silent power spread to all directions, and the black monster headed by it burned with black fluff-like flames. The flames dripped on the ground like oil droplets, and immediately spread out to the surrounding areas.

"Hoohoohoo."

After successfully arriving at the destination, Stephen, who stumbled a few steps due to the inertia due to his extreme speed, was panting heavily before he could stand upright.

"We have activated the monitoring mechanism in the collection room. Whether it is running or not may directly tell us whether the situation here is bad or controllable." Stephen stood in the open space in front.There are criss-crossing lines on the ground, which form a complex and gorgeous pattern.As he and Nick stood on it, colorful energy rays began to spread along their respective lines.

"It seems like the situation isn't bad, right?" Nick also breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this scene.This shows that the monitoring and protection mechanisms of Silent City are still functioning.They can temporarily hide in the collection room and think of a solution.Even if you can't leave, you can still find a lot of good things in the collection room to enhance your strength.Thanks to the capital Luke's love for showing off, Nick is not blind to some of the things in the collection room, their functions, and how to use them.

"I think their target may be you." Looking at the figure chasing after him from afar, Stephen suddenly said thoughtfully to Nick beside him.

"Me?" Nick pointed at himself in astonishment?He didn't know how Stephen saw this. Could it be that just because his skin was dark and had the same skin color as those monsters, he was treated as a partner to play with?

"To be precise, it's the energy of the psychic ring on your body. You're just an accessory." Stephen glanced at the psychic ring worn on Nick's finger.

"I'd rather your guess was wrong." Nick said with a dark face.Maybe what Stephen said was true, but he couldn't just throw away the psychic ring he was wearing just for verification, right?What if I guess wrong?What if the other party swallows up the stored energy in the clean psychic ring and pursues them again without mercy?When the time comes, he will be the first to be sacrificed on the spot without the protection of the ring.

The black monster was already wandering near. The leader raised his head, revealing a blood-scab-covered mouth under the hood.The silent scream sounded again, spreading and reverberating in this space.

Nick and Stephen felt dizzy.The energy lines that were about to be completed under the feet were disturbed and stagnated.Nick felt a cold and biting feeling of despair and powerlessness. He knew that he shouldn't be like this, but this sudden negative emotion swept over his spirit in a way that he couldn't resist.He came up with the idea of ​​how to push Stephen out to protect himself from disaster and buy him time to escape.

The worst side of human nature began to take over at this moment. Nick's mental consciousness was like an evil personality born from schizophrenia at this moment.

If it weren't for the shaky energy suit on his body that acted as a buffer and protection, Nick even thought that he would have put it into action as soon as possible, let alone the war between heaven and man in his heart. Betrayal and beating.

Coincidentally, Stephen also turned his gaze at this time, and the black light in his eyes made Nick's heart skip a beat, and he almost couldn't control his evil personality, letting it completely dominate.Nick now somewhat believed that these monsters were really coming towards him, or rather towards the psychic ring on his hand.Because the strands of energy particles are being rolled up by a powerful suction force and falling into the bodies of those black monsters.

Stephen pointed to the psychic ring on Nick's hand, and then pointed to the black monster floating in front of him.These simple movements were extremely awkward and difficult for Stephen to perform. At the same time, various emotions flashed across his eyes and face.And these emotions are also being swallowed up.

Nick understood what Stephen was trying to express.Taking advantage of the fact that the energy suit could still provide him with protection and allow him to maintain his final sobriety, he ignored the various instigations from the evil personality in his mind, such as "He wants to kill you", "This is betrayal" and so on.He was afraid that if he continued to listen, he would lose control completely under the dominance of despair and other negative emotions, and do something that he would regret for the rest of his life.

With the power of courage given by the psychic ring, he chose to believe in Stephen.While resisting the influence of another personality, he took off the psychic ring from his hand with difficulty, until the moment he threw it away, his body shone with the protection of another energy.And those black monsters all stopped their silent screams for a while, and instead pounced on the ring that Nick was thrown out, mingling together in chaos like black mist.

The stagnant energy lines under the feet also resumed operation. In the light of transmission, the figures of Nick and Stephen disappeared.A black monster who was squeezed out because he didn't fight for the psychic ring was wandering back and forth where the two disappeared, seeming to be feeling something.

"Are you ok?"

After waking up from the coma, Nick only felt his body was light. He remembered the moment of coma, and his will seemed to be replaced by another personality.He quickly looked around, only to find his body and Stephen sitting on the ground.Seeing his gaze, Stephen waved to him and asked the greeting he had heard since he woke up.

"What am I?" Nick looked at his illusory body floating in mid-air. He began to think that he was dead, but soon he realized that this situation looked familiar to him.

"Astral projection." Stephen confirmed Nick's suspicion. "You just wanted to release a dangerous object to kill me, but I almost got caught."

"Then I have to say sorry, that was not my intention." Nick said apologetically.He had already guessed what the evil personality might have done.You can tell by looking at Stephen's embarrassment and the mess around him.

"You're in trouble." Stephen ignored Nick's apology, just looked at him and sighed.

"I think I'm in good shape, except seeing my body as a soul. It always makes me feel like I'm dead." Nick's heart sank, but he forced himself to joke.

"You are infected by some kind of negative psychic energy." Stephen said something that made Nick's face change, but soon he comforted: "It's not the abyss, at least not to the point of being infected by the abyss. As long as we can find Lu Well, it's not that difficult to get rid of this infection. In fact, if I weren't in a bad position right now, I could help you try to fix it."

"So, we still have to find Luke, right?" Nick sighed. He followed Stephen's gaze to his left hand, where there was a black spot that was spreading bit by bit towards the entire soul.Nick knows that it does not need to spread to 100%, but only needs to spread to half, and his current consciousness will be completely dead.When he is alive, he will be nothing more than a mutated monster in human skin.

"What do you want from dad?" A clear female voice suddenly sounded in their ears, and in a flash of lightning, Becky jumped out of the void.

"Oh, my God! Becky!" Seeing the visitor, Nick, who was depressed, and Stephen, who was pensive, became excited.

"What exactly happened here? Why are there so many black monsters wandering outside? How did they appear? And, where is Luke? Why didn't he appear?" Nick asked in one breath.

"Nothing happened here?" Becky glanced at Nick strangely, "What could happen here? As for the black monsters wandering outside, they are not monsters! They are called Dementors, and they are my pets!"

"Pet?" Nick and Stephen's faces instantly turned dark.

"Those dangerous creatures can't be pets, right? They are too dangerous! Shouldn't they be locked up?" Nick took a deep breath.When he imagined that he was almost killed by Becky's pet, he had a strong urge to curse.

"Those Dementors must be related to the abyss, right? Is it really okay to let such monsters roam outside?" Stephen also had a headache.

"It's time for some air time now. I have to let my pets out and move around. No one wants to play with the Dementors, so I can only temporarily throw them outside to let them air out. They won't run out. ." Becky blinked and said plausibly.

"Your Uncle Nick almost died." Nick sighed again. "They chased us two all the way! And, where is Luke?"

"It should be that they are hungry and looking for food. They feed on all kinds of positive spiritual energy and the emotions of life, and generally do not kill people directly. They don't have that concept." Becky said while talking in his own He dug around in his pocket and replied, "Of course Dad is in the laboratory."

"Found it!" Becky suddenly shouted and pulled out a creature from his pocket that covered both Stephen and Nick. It was a monster that was exactly the same as the black creature that chased them outside. The only difference is that the monsters outside are black, like the God of Death, and this one is pure white, like the Holy Spirit.

As soon as the white dementor came out, it pounced on Nick as if it had smelled it. Before he was prepared, he was taken a deep breath from close by.Nick only felt as if his whole body had been purified from the inside out, and several smiles mixed with happiness and joy appeared on his face involuntarily.
