Beauty Man: Infinite Possession

Chapter 581 The Altar
"what?!"

Hearing the words from Vision's mouth, Tony was still a little puzzled.

However, he soon understood what the other party meant by saying that it was too late.

Rikers Island Prison, as Vision's voice fell, the crowd that had gathered together quietly raised their heads in unison.

They turned their necks and looked at Tony and the others with weird and fanatical expressions on their faces.

"..."

As a member of the Avengers, Tony believes that no matter what kind of scene he faces, he can be calm and composed.

However, facing the strange and fanatical gazes of hundreds of people in front of him, under the oppression of this strange silence, even Tony couldn't help but take a breath.

Controlling the palm of the steel suit let out a low sound, and Tony was even ready to make a move.

However, the expected scene of everyone rushing forward did not happen.

After silently scanning Tony and the others, they turned their heads one by one in the crowd, returning their eyes to their eyes again.

"Triangle, follow my call, block your mind, guard against it in secret, obey my order, destroy the barrier..."

Looking straight ahead, a prisoner in the crowd with tattoos all over his neck and face opened his mouth. Immediately around him, more and more prisoners behind him also opened their mouths and prayed.

The spell spread like a virus among the crowd, and finally under Tony's gaze, both the prisoners and the prison guards prayed the mysterious spell in unison, and walked towards a certain direction of Rikers Island Prison .

The movement of so many people in Rikers Island Prison is not a normal thing.

Contacting the information that Vision had obtained through the Mind Stone, Tony's eyes in Mark51 flickered.

"Must keep up with these people."

However, after only a moment's hesitation, Tony decided to keep up with the moving crowd.

After all, the Avengers arguably have no intelligence on what happened at Rikers Island Prison.

Although Vision forcibly obtained some information through its own ability, the broken information could not help Tony figure out what happened in Rikers Island Prison during the period of losing contact, and what caused all the changes in front of him. Where is the abnormality hidden in the prison?

And in Mark51, during the period of Tony's thinking, Vision's originally weak body also recovered a little.

After all, people's physiques cannot be generalized, especially when it comes to extraordinary people like Vision.

His body itself is different from ordinary people, and it has mutated in the space cosmic storm radiation. Afterwards, the experiment by Tony and others has further improved his already strong physical fitness by a large margin.

Shaking his head, although the constant tingling sensation on his forehead reminded Vision, the side effect of excessive use of the power of the Mind Gem has not dissipated, and even the fine cracks on the gem inlaid part of his forehead are still clearly visible , even for Vision, which has a powerful self-healing ability, these cracks cannot be recovered in a short time.

However, apart from being unable to use the power of the Mind Stone, Vision's other abilities are no longer affected.

Turning his head and looking at the silently moving crowd in front of him with his orange eyes, Vision recalled what he had obtained using the Mind Stone just now, and pieced together: "Mr. Stark, everyone in Rikers Island Prison is going to A mysterious summoning ritual, summoning life from another world to descend into reality from another dimension..."

"Another dimension?"

Faced with the information revealed by Vision, Tony's expression in Mark51 changed suddenly.

"Is it a place similar to Asgard's Asgard where Thor is?"

"Or an existence like the [Extraterritorial Demon] that Penglai mentioned?"

The existence of different dimensions is very unfamiliar even to the Avengers.

The only ones they have come into contact with that can be related to the dimension are Sol and the [Extraterritorial Demon] in the seal of Penglai.

Of course, no matter which one it is, it proves the horror and danger of life in different dimensions.

Needless to say, Thor, although as a member of the Avengers, he is on the human side.

However, it cannot be ignored that, as the god of thunder in the earth's mythological records, Thor exhibited a power far beyond human imagination.

If Sol, who landed on the earth, was not as friendly to humans but as malicious as Loki, the harm he could cause is almost unimaginable.

Not to mention the [Extraterritorial Demon] [Shou He] who escaped from the Penglai seal, if it hadn't been for the [Turtle Immortal] to sacrifice his life to seal [Shou He] into Master Ye's body.Today, the whole of New York may be covered by yellow sand.

I mentioned so much just to illustrate the danger of alien creatures.

"Since that's the case, then we can't let these people go."

"Whether the purpose of their ritual is to summon creatures of different dimensions, or something else, in short, we can't let this ritual complete smoothly."

Although it is not clear what the different-dimensional objects summoned by the ceremony in Rikers Island Prison are, Tony has already made plans to stop them.

"Friday, scan it and change the suit mode."

Looking across the slowly moving crowd while praying in front of him, Tony immediately opened his mouth and gave instructions to the subsystem in Mark51 that he named Friday.

"Okay, Mr. Stark."

Following Tony's order, an infrared ray from Mark51's eyes quickly scanned the figure passing by.

Immediately afterwards, the Mark51 nano-suit on Tony's body also began to squirm and transform into an orange-yellow prison uniform.

With the prison uniform transformed from the nano suit, Tony easily blended into the moving crowd.

On the other side, Vision also controls the body to blur into a faint phantom, and Ultron deforms his mechanical body, folding his originally tall body to about half of a normal person, and also hides in the crowd.

Under normal circumstances, this series of actions by Tony and others.

It should have aroused the reaction of the crowd in front of them long ago. After all, no matter how well they hide, they will be incompatible with the prisoners around them.

Therefore, after Tony mixed into the crowd, he was actually a little uneasy in his heart, worried that he would be exposed by the people on the side soon.

However, after moving with the crowd for a period of time, Tony understood what the vision invasion was all about.

These people seem to be able to walk and talk normally on the surface.

But in fact, their thinking has long been controlled, and everything they do now is just an action under the control of their thinking, without any consciousness of their own at all.

Mixed in the moving crowd, Tony murmured vaguely the incantations he heard from a prisoner beside him, and glanced at the figure in front of him that seemed to be carved out of a mold, walking neatly and repeating the incantations in his mouth, Gradually, a chill continued to emerge from his heart.

……

"Triangle, follow my call, mind barrier, secret...well, stop..."

Rikers Island Prison.

Tony lowered his head, hiding himself in the moving crowd.

Just like this, I don't know how long I walked in step by step. The prisoner who had been walking in front of him stopped, and at the same time stopped praying in his mouth. Tony, who was silently vigilant, also stopped immediately, turned his gaze to around.

Judging from the layout of the surrounding environment and some moved and scattered equipment, the place where the crowd stayed at this time seemed to be the square of the original Rikers Island Prison, which was the only place where prisoners could move around in prison life in the past.

Of course, this is the past.

Now, Tony's eyes glanced at the complex spells depicted on the ground, as well as the strange and fanatical figures holding candles densely around, and at the front of the crowd, the high platform where the prison guards used to stand guard to supervise the free movement of the prisoners, but now Obviously turned into a weird altar.

On the altar, a figure in a red hood turned his back to him, waving his arms and doing various exaggerated movements while chanting.

"It seems that this red hood should be the leader of the entire ceremony in Rikers Island Prison?"

The appearance of the Red Hood, which was completely different from Rikers Island Prison, immediately gave Tony a judgment.

"So, does it mean that as long as you stop the red hood, you can interrupt this weird ceremony?"

Hidden in the crowd, Tony's eyes fell on the red hood, and his eyes began to flicker.

"I wouldn't do this if I were you."

However, before Tony could put his inner thoughts into action, a familiar voice sounded in his ear.

"Jack Simon!"

Hearing this voice, Tony turned his head and saw Jack Simon, who had disappeared from Rikers Island Prison, and came behind him at some point.

"Hurry up and bow your head, Tony."

Seeing this surreptitious collaborator, Tony didn't have time to ask.

I saw Jack Simon on the opposite side open his mouth and reminded himself with his mouth.

He noticed the corner of Jack Simon's mouth. Although Tony stopped talking, he subconsciously lowered his head as Jack Simon reminded him.

The moment Tony lowered his head, the red-hooded Parker Robbins who was standing on the altar with his back to the crowd turned around, his eyes swept across the densely packed prisoners in front of him, and he frowned He frowned, but still withdrew his gaze, and at the same time gestured to the prisoners holding candles on both sides.

After receiving the instruction from Parker Robbins, the prisoners immediately raised the candles in their hands. Under the light of the flickering fire, the weird and fanatical expressions on the prisoners' faces became even more frightening.

They waved the candles in their hands, and began to pray loudly at the same time: "Triangle, obey my call, block the mind, keep secret, follow my order, destroy the barrier..."

"Triangle, follow my call, block your mind, guard against it in secret, obey my order, destroy the barrier..."

"Triangle, follow my call, the mind is blocked..."

Along with their prayers, beside Tony, the prisoners who had calmed down spoke again and read in unison.

In the midst of prayers, this incantation, which seemed like a joke to Tony, began to become strange and inexplicable.

Thick uneasiness began to emerge from his heart.

"Why are you stopping me?"

Suppressing his inner anxiety, Tony tried his best not to look at the prisoner beside him who kept chanting spells silently, and said to Jack Simon behind him.

"As you can see, the red hood on the altar seems to be a key role in the entire ceremony."

"I just don't want to see you die."

Facing Tony's questioning, Jack Simon replied with a solemn expression.

"You should have already noticed that Rikers Island Prison is undergoing a weird ceremony. I originally thought that it was only a certain abnormality that affected Rikers Island Prison, but it is obviously not that simple. If I guessed correctly If so, there should be a will from another dimension controlling all of this. The red hood on the altar is just a puppet chosen by it. It can choose a puppet, and it can choose the second one. So , even if you stop the other party, you can't stop the ceremony, but you will expose yourself to danger."

"According to what you said, don't we just watch the ceremony complete!"

Jack Simon's words certainly had some truth, but the constant prayers in his ears and the increasingly obvious uneasiness in his heart made Tony lower his voice and ask.

"of course not."

He shook his head lightly, then raised his head and swept around, especially stopping at the red hood on the altar.

Jack Simon said silently: "Since it is a ceremony, there must be loopholes, especially this ceremony of summoning creatures of different dimensions to land. Although it is impossible to determine which dimension of creatures is trying to land in the real world, but using Riker The ceremony of tens of thousands of people in Sidao Prison represents that this different-dimensional life body cannot easily come to the world we live in. That is to say, the real world has great resistance to the dimensional life of the ceremony, so it It is necessary to use the entire prison to carry out the ceremony, so as to offset the obstruction of the real world."

"Of course, everyone in Rikers Island Prison is just a medium. If beings of different dimensions want to come to the real world, they need an introduction in addition to the medium, just like the anomaly must be attached to a certain object or human being to manifest itself. The influence is average, if a dimensional life wants to descend, it needs not only a ceremony, but also a guide or signpost to prevent it from descending into the wrong dimension world."

"So, the most important thing is to find the guidepost for the arrival of different dimensions and destroy it to prevent the other party from coming to our world. As for the guidepost, I already have a little idea. The guidepost used by Rikers Island Prison to summon the alien dimension seems to be It's a day..."

In the crowd, just when Jack Simon was about to tell Tony the key to the ceremony.

boom--

Suddenly, a huge explosion sounded in Rikers Island Prison.

"Tony, where are you!"

Along with the explosion, a familiar voice also came.
