The era of American comics begins

Chapter 142 Extraordinary Events

When Wanda and Gwen arrived at the abandoned port, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.

It was dark and quiet on the pier, only the sound of wind and water could be heard slightly, and the sound sounded like some kind of ghost screaming strangely.They soon found the messy traces of a fierce battle here.Two containers were knocked to the ground, and the shells of several others were sunken.On the ground was a pile of detritus from crumbling wooden boxes, and a huge fist pit covered in webbed cracks.

It is conceivable how strong the force is that caused such a series of destruction.

There was a trace of dried blood on the wood chips.Wanda put down the bag in her hand, squatted down, and stretched out five fingers to lightly touch the bloodstain.After long-term development and training with Michael, her understanding of chaos magic has become more and more in-depth, and the abilities she can display are becoming more and more diverse.Now she can not only apply chaos magic to combat or mind reading, but also expand it to develop a function that can perform retrospective sensing to a certain extent.

For example, take the current situation as an example, through the traces of the battle in this place, the breath left by the participants, and the faint black magic fluctuations that she does not know the source of, her chaotic magic power can integrate all these, combine these The details try to restore the scene and the specific process of the incident.

But the attempt didn't go very well.She felt that her magic power seemed to be shielded by something, and everything she sensed seemed to be covered by a dark curtain. Everything that happened here and everyone who appeared was covered by this curtain. In the rear, all she could sense was the breath, but she couldn't see who was here.

But what she was sure of was that there was something very sinister on both sides of the war.According to that vague feeling, she felt that the thing might not be a person, but closer to some kind of murderous monster.It is brutal, ruthless, without principles, and extremely dangerous.

In other words, this incident has probably become the scope of their work as super agents of the Tianjian supernormal operations team.

"Sister." Gwen called her suddenly.Wanda turned her head and saw Gwen standing beside a huge blue shipping container and waving at her.

Wanda walked over and quickly understood why Gwen called her.

The word, Passotech, is clearly written on the shell of the container.

"What's in there?" she asked.

"I don't know." Gwen shook her head, pointing to the door that was deformed by brute force.The box was empty, with nothing in it.

Wanda walked to the door, closed her eyes lightly, stretched out her hand and slowly released the magic power of chaos to try to sense it.But a resistance stronger than the outside stopped her from exploring. The dark magic power in this box was so thick that it was choking, like the black smoke rising into the sky at the scene of a fire, it blocked her vision, and she couldn't see anything.

Gwen shot her a questioning look.

Wanda shook her head slightly: "The black magic shield is too severe, and I can't perceive anything. But I think maybe we should inform Mr. Passo."

Michael's private laboratory.

"Wanda." Michael asked Shirley to connect the line and turned on the hands-free mode.

"Mr. Passo, I know it's late, but I think there's something here that you might want to know."

"how?"

"Gwen and I are currently on an abandoned pier in Manhattan." Wanda said, "We believe that there should have been a fierce fight here not long ago. From the traces of the scene, I think it should belong to the 'extraordinary 'The battle in the field. In addition, I also sensed some kind of black magic fluctuation that I am very unfamiliar with in this place. Although the residual amount is not strong, I can feel a very evil energy."

Michael opened his eyes: “What did you find?”

"Hmm, a blue box, shipping container, very big. It says 'Paso Tech' on it, I think that's yours?"

"What's inside? What's in there?"

"There's nothing, it's empty." Wanda said, "I tried to use my abilities to find out where the original contents went, but there was heavy black magic interference in the box, so I couldn't see anything."

"Thanks for the report, Wanda. I know what's going on."

"Is there anything else we can do, Mr. Passo? Maybe we can look into the context of this? Or help you get back what's in that box. Something important is in there, isn't it?"

"No need. I already have someone special to deal with this matter." Michael said flatly, "Thank you for your concern. Both you and Gwen should rest early. Besides, have a nice weekend."

Wanda took off the headset.Gwen asked, "What did he say?"

"Just say he knows, and let us leave it alone." Wanda shrugged. "He doesn't sound like he's particularly concerned."

Jessica Jones thought she might have woken up from the freezing cold of the river.When she woke up, she had been washed ashore unknowingly by the current, and her whole body was soaked inside and out.

She struggled to climb ashore, got out of the icy cold river, turned over with great effort, and lay on her back on the ground, panting heavily.Her hands and feet were cold, and her black hair was as wet as seaweed.But she still had severe pain in her body, especially the waist and abdomen. At worst, she thought she might have broken one or two ribs.

But thinking about it better, if it was a normal human being, she would have died after such a toss. Fortunately, she is not a normal human being, and she recovered quickly.

It was thrilling to think about tonight's experience, which might have been unique even among all the oddities she had experienced.At first, the mission was to find Mr. Landlord’s missing nephew, then smugglers were involved, then the Passo Group, and then she was very unlucky to find that Mr. Landlord’s nephew was suspected to be an ability enhancer.

Then after she went through five levels and finally found the landlord's nephew and subdued him, the last one who emerged as the level guard boss was the big black guy just now, the monster who called himself "Venom".

What a ghost.Now Jessica can clearly see the appearance of that venom as soon as she closes her eyes.Those ferocious white eyes, sharp fangs, long tongue, and the almost deadly bad breath.

Going back at night will definitely have a nightmare.

Maybe she should just let it go.This case has become too weird, so weird that it goes far beyond the scope of "recovering the missing teenagers". It seems that the commission plus one month's rent is not worth it for her to continue to take risks.

But the few people who know Jessica Jones will know that she won't let it go.

Because as much as she's always acting mean and obnoxious and pretending to be indifferent to everyone and everything, deep down she's a nosy person by nature.She acts like she's bothering about everything and refuses to help anyone, but she just can't stand idly by who and what she's already seen.

After a short break, Jessica sat up and wrung a handful of water from her damp black hair.

Fortunately, tonight is not for nothing.It got a little crazy, but she did find her next clue. AXCR-3920, the number printed on the cube case.

She didn't know what this number meant, but she believed that she might be able to find the answer within Paso's company.
