Chapter 236 Zhang Yuning's Ex-Boyfriend

The main Marvel universe.

Earth, New York.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Zhang Yuning woke up on the subway seat.

She was wearing a worn hoodie, hot pants and two long white legs with loose laces.

The hood and hanging hair covered half of his face.

Zhang Yuning's eyes moved slightly, looking left and right.

In the empty and old subway car, there are a few passengers sitting sparsely. There are faded graffiti and chewing gum residues on the floor, and the cold white light in the tunnel outside the window keeps flashing.

"Hello, passengers, Lexington Avenue is here, passengers who need to get off..."

When the subway announcement sounded, Zhang Yuning stood up without hesitation, walked out of the sliding subway door, and walked quickly to find an exit.

[Welcome to the main world of reincarnation, Marvel main universe (Earth-616 universe)-SSS level]

[You have obtained a new identity, automatically loaded skills: English proficiency, Cree proficiency]

[A faction has been randomly selected for you—the plot line of the Kree Empire camp]

[Please start your reincarnation adventure! 】

A series of cold voices sounded in the depths of my mind.

Zhang Yuning stepped out from the exit of the escalator.

The sun, the air, the rush of vehicles and people, the row upon row of tall buildings and mansions, the sound of beeping horns and chaotic conversations one after another, the car exhaust and the aroma of ice cream and candies are mixed together.

Back to the modern world at last.

"what……"

Zhang Yuning looked around and let out a soft breath.

……

The Marvel main universe is the universe with the largest number of superheroes, the most complete and complete background settings, and the richest events and plots among all the multiverses of Marvel.

At the same time, it is also famous in the world of reincarnation.

reincarnation hub.

This is the name given to the universe by the samsara.

The opening time of the Marvel main universe is said to be as early as the Resident Evil movie universe, and some people even suspect that this is the first universe opened in the world of reincarnation, the first universe where reincarnation comes.

But the Marvel main universe gave a completely different answer from the Resident Evil movie universe.

This place has not become a certain type of doomsday wasteland world because of the messing around of the reincarnators. It is still full of vitality and everything is still competing.

Because the upper limit of the background of the Marvel main universe is too high.

Not to mention the existence of the OAA, the Tribunal of Life, and the five gods in the background boards, the earth alone, the so-called "little broken ball", is covered by several heavenly father-level existences.

In the Nine Realms system, the earth belongs to the world tree atrium - Midgard "Human Kingdom", which is protected by Odin from being invaded by other countries in the Nine Realms.

The earth also has a magical protection system built by the three sanctuaries, which is protected by the supreme mage Gu Yi to protect the earth from other magical dimensions.

God systems include: Nordic gods, Greek gods, Chinese gods, Egyptian gods...

Government agencies include: SHIELD Bureau, Divine Lance Bureau, Sky Hammer Bureau, Sky Sword Bureau...

Folk groups are: Avengers, Defenders, Illuminati, X-Men, 198, Young Avengers…

There are different corresponding grades in high, medium and low.

Why do reincarnators mess around?
How can the reincarnation make waves?
Due to the long opening time, the local aborigines of the Marvel main universe have reached a strange ecology of balanced coexistence with the reincarnations. Many high-ranking aborigines not only know the existence of the reincarnations, but have even explored the way of coexistence with the reincarnations. model.

It is precisely because of this harmony that the Marvel main universe has become a shelter for many weak reincarnation people in the reincarnation world, a transfer station for many reincarnation world travelers, and the well-known "reincarnation hub".

According to the incomplete statistics of the reincarnation forum, the main universe of Marvel is the one where the reincarnators choose to drop the anchor of the world the most.

Here, you can not only enjoy the comfortable and convenient modern life, but also explore the extraordinary ability system. In this place, this risk is acceptable.

And Zhang Yuning came to the Marvel main universe this time, and she didn't come for the big event of the plot line at all.

She glanced at the clock and calendar hanging in the shop on the street. It was ten o'clock in the morning, which was still early. Before the shop closed, Zhang Yuning decided to enjoy the long-lost modern life first.

The sailing life on the Litma cruiser, although Fu Qinghai took care of it, was ultimately a military career in space, not so comfortable and comfortable.

She walked into a Prada store on the street, picked out a few black clothes and boots at the counter, changed them in the fitting room, and threw the old clothes presented by the world of reincarnation into the trash can.

As a result, when I stood at the cash register, I realized that I had no money.

The reincarnation world didn't give her money either.

It's not a question of not having enough money, she doesn't have any money at all.

"Ma'am, you look so beautiful in this dress, I suggest you pair it with this string..."

The black female clerk next to him is still introducing it dutifully.

"Ugh."

Zhang Yuning shook her head and sighed.

Black smoke gushed out of her body and quickly dissipated. All the shop assistants and customers in the store suddenly fell into some kind of hallucination. They screamed in horror and ran around like headless flies. Run, or crouch and hold your head in a loud prayer.

Zhang Yuning pushed open the store door and walked out.

The phantom disappeared suddenly, and the luxury store returned to normal. Everyone in the store was still in shock, and they didn't notice that there was one less customer.

But he didn't expect that he was being watched as soon as he went out.

A young man in a peaked cap approached Zhang Yuning, handed over a picture album in his hand, lowered the brim of his hat and whispered:

"Is this the first time you come to the main Marvel universe, do you need a reincarnation map of New York City?"

Zhang Yuning glanced at him: "No need."

Zhang Yuning walked forward, but the young man followed behind rather persistently, and raised his voice and said:
"It's really useful. The new site of the Bugle Daily, No. 4 Building on Yancey Street, Latvinian Embassy, ​​Fiske Building, X Manor... can all be found on my map, and only need 3 assimilation points, which is very cost-effective of."

Zhang Yuning ignored him and walked on by herself.

The young man looked at her tall back and shouted:
"I also do part-time admissions to Empire State University, if you want to be classmates with superheroes..."

Zhang Yuning's back disappeared into the corner of the street.

The young man sighed helplessly.

……

The reincarnation just now did not lie.

The place names he mentioned are indeed closely related to the characters in the plot. If you often go around or visit directly, you may be able to have a relationship with superheroes.

The Daily Bugle: JJ James and Spider-Man.

Building 4 Young West Street: The Fantastic Four.

Latvinian Embassy: Doctor Doom.

Fiske Building: Jinbin.

Manor X, naturally needless to say, Professor X.

But Zhang Yuning is not the first time to come to the main universe of Chunmeng, she knows that it is useless, the people here are not bumpkins who have never seen reincarnation.

The same goes for Empire State University.

The college is located in the upper part of Manhattan. It is an Ivy private prestigious school. Famous students include Emma Frost (White Queen), Peter Parker (Spiderman), Johnny Stone (Human Torch), etc. The school motto is "Keep improving "(Excelsior, also a famous quote from Stan Lee), the school features scholarships for students of mutants, superhumans, aliens and parallel worlds.

Reincarnates can be classified into the last category.

But Zhang Yuning is not a newcomer who has just entered the world of reincarnation, she has already passed the stage of needing scholarships.

Zhang Yuning came to New York's Chinatown in the lower part of Manhattan. The streets were humid and the air was slightly damp, as if it had just rained. She followed the bustling flow of people and walked under the densely extended signboards.

Jinjiang Hotel, Xiyunlai Hotel, Congee, Noodles, Noodles, Buddha's Destiny, Vegetarian House...Among the various neon signs in traditional Chinese characters, Zhang Yuning found her destination.

"Old Man Lin's CD and Video Tape Rental".

Dilapidated green signboards, crooked light boxes.

There is also a small line of "VCD DVD various discs" below.

Like any video rental store you can find anywhere in the US.

But Zhang Yuning knew it was not that simple.

Looks like a DVD rental store with a bad business.

In fact, it is a hidden item store for reincarnation.

When she pushed the door and entered, two people just came out, talking while walking:
"The big storyline event this time should be the 'Kree-Skrull War'."

"That's right, 616·BBS has spread the word, and everyone agrees that this is the big event."

"But we don't even have spaceships, so how can we participate in the war between two interstellar empires?"

"Hey, what are you worrying about, we want to fight interstellar wars at our level? You are not qualified to be cannon fodder."

Zhang Yuning ignored their discussion, went straight to the counter, and rang the copper bell.

"Jingle bell~"

A short, bald old man with a stooped back came out from behind the door, with a pair of round and thick presbyopic glasses on his rosaceous nose.

"Please take a look."

The old man said casually.

Zhang Yuning rolled her eyes:

"I don't understand, I speak Mandarin."

"Oh, just take a look."

The old man switched to Mandarin in a second.

Zhang Yuning tapped the counter table with her fingers:

"I am a reincarnation."

"Oh?" The old man pushed his glasses:
"Understood, please tell me."

Zhang Yuning went on to say:

"I want something a little less popular."

"What does a beautiful girl want, let me tell you."

Zhang Yuning stared at the old man's cloudy eyes, and said slowly:

"An old movie from 1973, produced by Warner Bros., The Exorcist."

The old man lowered his head and rummaged through the counter, took out an old video tape, and pushed it in front of Zhang Yuning:
"Give."

Really... Zhang Yuning raised her eyebrows.

"It's not over yet. In 03, "Ghost Call" directed by Takashi Miike."

"Well, this is indeed a bit unpopular, wait for me to look for it."

The old man turned around and walked back to the inner room, there was a sound of rummaging for things, and finally he came out holding a CD:
"found it."

Sure enough, the reputation is well-deserved... Zhang Yuning thought to herself.

"Also, Xiangjiang in 99, starring Wu Zhenyu, "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village"."

"You're asking the right person...here, this one."

The old man rummaged through the pile of discs behind him, took out a dusty disc, and put it in front of the counter.

Two discs and a video tape were piled up in front of Zhang Yuning.

After inspection, very satisfied.

She called out several more names one after another.

"Pen Fairy, A Nightmare On Elm Street, Silent Hill, And The Last Ghost, and A Nightmare On Elm Street."

The old man shook his head and said:

"There are no discs for these few."

"Some are indeed out of stock, and some are because... the last batch of people who asked me to buy discs died in that universe, and the discs were left there."

Zhang Yuning was a little disappointed when she heard this.

"However." The old man added:
"If you really want to go, I can contact the owner to transfer the goods. There are no CDs, only items. The items may not be complete, and the price is relatively expensive. You think about it."

Zhang Yuning said without hesitation:

"Let them transfer the goods, don't worry, the points are enough."

The four thousand points that Fu Qinghai gave her are still on the account.

"OK, all right."

The old man slowly took out a piece of white paper and a pen, pushed them on the table, and said:

"Leave your contact information and address, no deposit, full payment in advance, and it will be delivered to the place you wrote within three days."

Zhang Yuning thought about it, she had just arrived in New York, she had neither checked in at the hotel nor applied for a phone card, so she could only write down the name of a five-star hotel and her own name first.

She bowed her head and wrote.

The old man's dim eyes looked at Zhang Yuning quietly, and reminded him in a leisurely tone:

"Young girl, I have a suggestion for you."

"Silent Hill, The Clown's Resurrection, Ghost Chaser, these three universes, don't touch them, it's not as simple as a few urban evil spirits or resentful ghosts, that's all Able said."

Zhang Yuning looked up at the old man, nodded, said "Thank you, old man", and said nothing more.

Of course, she knows about Silent Hill and Ghostbusters. The world view structure behind them is very grand, and it is by no means simply exaggerating horror to frighten the audience.But the clown came back, she didn't know why, wasn't it a children's horror movie?But Zhang Yuning still paid attention to this passage.

She didn't underestimate him just because he was a bald old man who was dying and dying.

Others may not know, but Zhang Yuning, who was born in the horror movie universe, has heard about the origin of this old man.

Perhaps it is a tribute to the late Xiangjiang filmmaker. He called himself "Lin Ying". senior priest.

He is also the guest elder of the largest Chinese association in the world of reincarnation "Lion Awakening", but he just declared that "Golden Basin washes his hands and withdraws from the world". The old man is still involved with the lion dance, and the "employee" he speaks of may be the lion dancer.

In fact, this is not the first time Zhang Yuning has visited here, but the old man may have forgotten it long ago.

When Zhang Yuning first came to the Marvel main universe, she witnessed it with her own eyes. There were three reincarnated people, young lads, two white men and one black man, who bullied the old man for being slow. Assimilation Points grabbed the things behind the counter and ran away, but the old man didn't chase after them, and let them leave with a smile.

Three days later, Zhang Yuning came to New York's Chinatown again. Two white and one black heads stood in the middle of Chinatown, with racist insults such as "white pig" and "nigger" written in blood beside them. , but the whole New York City seemed to turn a blind eye. Since then, Zhang Yuning guessed that the old man must have something to do with the lion dance.

Zhang Yuning handed the white paper with the address and name written on it to the old man. After receiving it, the old man raised his glasses to check it carefully, picked up the landline next to him and started making calls.

Zhang Yuning couldn't understand Cantonese, so she could only wait patiently.

Is it possible to see another movie in one movie?
Will there be another comic in one comic?
of course.

In the episode "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier", the Winter Soldier explicitly mentioned the Lord of the Rings series, and had a debate with Falcon on the difference between "wizard" and "mage".

In the movie "Avengers: Infinity War", Spider-Man proposed to Iron Man to use the method in the old movie "Alien" to defeat Ebony Maw.

There are so many similar bridges, and many new movies frequently show scenes that pay tribute to old movies, perhaps on the screen on the street, or on the TV in the house.

And this gave the reincarnators many opportunities.

As we all know, familiarity with the plot is very helpful for reincarnation adventures, but due to the inability to return to the real world, there is no way to revisit many movies, comics and games that are not deeply impressed, and there is such a group of people who specialize in shuttles in various places. Reincarnation World, collect information about other universes in this universe, including but not limited to game cassettes, video tapes, DVDs, books, comics...etc.

and profit from it.

Mr. Lin's disc and video tape rental is a shop engaged in this business.

After hanging up the phone, the old man lowered his eyes, counted the things in front of him in a low voice, added the items that needed to be transferred by the owner, and finally gave a quotation:
"A total of 786 assimilation points. It's the first time for a little girl to come here, so I'll round it up for you, 780 points."

Zhang Yuning nodded and said:

"I still need ten reincarnation beacons, and I won't find another one. I bought it from you. Give me a discount."

The old man nodded:

"Ten beacons normally sell for 2000 points, I'll charge you 2600, take everything together."

Zhang Yuning paid the assimilation points, successfully completed the transaction, and stuffed two CDs and a video tape into her inner pocket. This is a piece of clothing she brought out from the Warhammer 40K universe. There is a pocket sewn on the inside, which is the name of the alchemist Lao. Ster solidified the pocket of the Untraceable Stretching Curse.

Fu Qinghai even gave her this.

The only space equipment in the society.

Fu Qinghai really doted on her.

"Crench."

At this time, the sound of opening the door came from behind.

Zhang Yuning turned around and looked, the visitor also saw Zhang Yuning, both of them were taken aback:
"Zhang Yuning?"

"Ran Jianian?"

……

Inside a high-end restaurant in Upper Manhattan.

At the table by the window, a man and a woman sat facing each other.

Zhang Yuning looked at the man in front of her, frowning slightly.

He actually entered the reincarnation world.

That's pretty fucked up.

Zhang Yuning thought to herself.

Across the table was a stylishly dressed young man.

The skin is very fair, with short round-inch hair dyed red, a thin iron chain around the neck, a pair of sunglasses stuck on the forehead, and wearing a loose pilot jacket with a red No. 91 Bulls jersey inside. Rodman or Artest, who knows?Plump khaki crotch pants, stepping on a pair of Adidas Ross 7th generation sneakers.

Why did I fall in love with such a man in the first place?

Zhang Yuning thought rather self-deprecatingly.

"When did you come in?"

the man asked.

He looked at the woman in front of him with great interest. She crossed her legs, folded her hands on her chest, and leaned against the back of the chair, looking indifferent and distant...but she was still so beautiful.

No, she is more attractive than ever.

Before entering the world of reincarnation, she was just beautiful, but now, she has a deadly and dangerous feeling, like a black poppy, swaying and poisonous.

"A long time ago."

Zhang Yuning said lightly.

"My God, I really didn't expect that I could meet you again after entering the world of reincarnation. Maybe this is...fate."

The man expressed emotion and spread his arms.

The woman's eyes were cold and unmoved.

Looking at Zhang Yuning's expressionless face, Ran Jianian thought about his words and said:

"To be honest, after we broke up, I have been..."

Noticing that the woman's face was getting colder and colder, he wisely kept silent.

The waiter brought up two plates of steak, left a sentence of "please take it slowly" and turned away.

"I'm just curious about one question."

Zhang Yuning leaned forward and put one hand on the table.

"When you entered the world of reincarnation, what date was it?"

"Hmm..." Ran Jianian raised his head and thought for a while.

"It seems to be October of 21, I can't remember the exact date."

He put his hands in his pockets pretending to be cool, and shrugged:

"I can't help it, I've been hanging around in the world of reincarnation for too long."

Same time as I came in.

Zhang Yuning nodded and said nothing more.

"Yu Ning." The man stared seriously at Zhang Yu Ning's eyes, and said seriously:
"At the beginning, we had conflicts and misunderstandings, but now, the world of reincarnation gave us a chance to start all over again, and gave us all a chance to start all over again. Why did we..."

Zhang Yuning's face was still indifferent, and she didn't respond.

The man thought for a while, and then changed his rhetoric. He snapped his fingers, and a wisp of flame floated out from his fingertips.

"Look, I'm a gamma-level mutant now, and I joined Lion Dance not long ago, you should know Lion Dance, I have three newbies under my command, I have a solid foundation in the world of Samsara, Yu Ning , I can give you a better and safer life, follow me, I will apply to the association to let you join my team, and I will give you all the resources the association gives me..."

"Are you finished?"

Zhang Yuning interrupted impatiently.

"After finishing speaking, I'm leaving."

"Yu Ning, listen to me."

As the man said, he stretched out his hand to grab the woman's hand that was placed on the table, but he didn't expect her to shrink back as if she had been electrocuted, and said coldly:
"Do not touch me!"

Ran Jianian's eyes flickered, and his face changed slightly:

"What, you have a boyfriend?"

"Humph."

Zhang Yuning sneered, stood up straight away, opened the seat and turned to leave, leaving only one sentence:

"none of your business."

"Hey……"

The man turned his head and looked at the woman's leaving back, feeling unwilling, and shouted.

Zhang Yuning walked out of the restaurant without looking back.

The steak on the plate remained untouched.

……

Intercontinental Hotel Times Square.

Standing alone in a red telephone booth, Zhang Yuning dialed a number from memory.

"Beep beep..."

"Hello?"

A young male voice came from the phone.

"Ron, it's me."

Zhang Yuning said lightly.

"Wow, Zhang, you really came to the main Marvel universe."

Ron still sounded happy.

Zhang Yuning told the club that he would come to the main Marvel universe, and Ron's anchor world happened to be the main Marvel universe, so he gave Zhang Yuning his own phone number.

"Ron, I'm out of money. Do you have money? This is the reincarnation hub. I don't want to use my ability too often. If you have money, come and give me some. It's not assimilation points, it's cash, dollars."

"Cash? Small question, where are you, I'll come right here."

Just as Zhang Yuning finished giving her address, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure at the corner of the street.

Ok?
She frowned.
