Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Tons Tons

When No. 666's reputation was undermined, Benjamin came to the rescue: "No, Li Hua's guide is actually a very good person. He got angry simply because Li Hua didn't use his carefully selected spells and instead indulged in close combat with his staff."

Benjamin: "I can understand that, because the person who gave me the Omnitrix—that's the watch—also scolded me that way because I used the cosmic gene bank and 'bridge of communication between civilizations' that he spent centuries building to fight. To be fair, Li Hua's guide is a sweet angel compared to Azmis."

Li Hua nodded frantically.

Azmis, the greatest inventor in the five galaxies and the creator of the Omnitrix, is also a legendary foul-mouthed man with a bad and strange temper. He once single-handedly killed his girlfriend and two assistants.

Even Albedo, who in Benjamin's childhood memory obeyed Azmis's orders and admired him very much, has recently defected. They had just fought on Earth not long ago.

Jason: "I thought Li Hua was rebellious for fighting with a staff, but I didn't expect there were people more rebellious than him. What's wrong with you? Do the magic side also use the term gene pool?"

Benjamin: "Actually, I'm not a magician. My watch contains the DNA of intelligent species from most of the planets in my universe. In other words, the person I transformed into is actually an alien."

Jason: “…”

Jason: "In other words, you have a Noah's Ark on your wrist, so you are Noah?"

Benjamin: “That’s not wrong if you want to understand it that way.”

Jason: "...and all you do is carry a fully-staffed Noah's Ark and smash it on the enemy's heads?"

Benjamin: "What's the problem? This thing was originally invented to prevent the extinction of species in the universe. So if I defeat the enemy that caused the extinction, wouldn't that also save the species?"

Jason: “…”

The two of you are truly a perfect match.

A Noah wielding his Ark to smash people, and a beginner mage obsessed with using his staff to smash people when he should have been learning the basics of magic. The two who should have stayed in the rear opted to grab their weapons and join the front lines in close combat. It's no wonder their guide was so grumpy.

"We've already given you the lowdown, so can you also give us the lowdown?" Li Hua said, "At least tell us what you did before."

Jason: "I used to be a vigilante, and Benjamin and I were colleagues from another world. But one time, I got caught by the enemy, and then I was reincarnated in the cemetery."

Jason omitted a lot of things, but everyone knew that what he went through was not as easy as he said.

Benjamin didn't know how to respond to this. He was the same age as Jason and they were both young superheroes. He was still alive, but Jason had already died once.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold. It was not Jason's intention to make the atmosphere so awkward. Just when he was thinking about how to change the topic to make the atmosphere better, Li Hua spoke.

"What a coincidence! I died once too, but I was reincarnated into another world."

Jason:!

How could such a niche experience find people who understand it?

If this is the case with Li Hua, then the previous conversation between him and Benjamin in front of the tombstone can be explained.

Seeing that Li Hua didn't seem to be too cautious about his own death, Jason tried to speak: "Then I'm better off than you. After all, I can still go home often."

He now desperately needs an opportunity to have someone with whom he can talk without hesitation about death and the feelings of the dead being resurrected.

Li Hua sighed, "But when I was alive, I was in poor health and always sick, which caused a lot of trouble for my family. It's better for me, a troublesome person, to be gone. It will save them a lot of energy... I only dare to say this after I die. When I was alive, they would be super angry every time I said this."

Jason: "If I heard you say that, I'd be angry too. By the way, as a senior with a second life, do you have any suggestions on this?"

Benjamin, the only one who hadn't died, moved a few steps to the side without leaving a trace.

This was someone who had experienced similar pain and was talking about their past in the form of a joke. It was not a topic he could participate in.

It was also the first time for Li Hua and Jason to meet someone who had died once like themselves. For them, there was no taboo in the topic of life and death, so they immediately started talking about it.

"What other advice can I get? I've only lived once. If I can survive, I live. If I can't, I die. Anyway, I've made enough money. If I could, I would definitely have "Li Hua: Died Twice" engraved on my tombstone in large letters."

"Then I will make a will that a pickaxe be placed in my coffin, and no nails be driven into it."

"From a physics perspective, if you're already buried in the ground, does it really matter whether you have nails in your coffin or not?"

"Ah, that seems to be the case. Then I'll request a digging kit and an oxygen tank in the coffin. What about you?"

"My hometown has promoted cremation for many years, so I shouldn't have to worry about my body coming back to life."

Jason: “…”

Benjamin: “…”

Could it be that Li Hua's reincarnation into another world is because his physical body in his original world is gone?

This worry was completely unnecessary, because the reasons for Li Hua and Jason's resurrection were completely different. He was offered the offer only after it was confirmed that his original body was dead in the original world. Afterwards, the organization to which No. 666 belonged directly recreated a body for Li Hua to use.

Even when sculpting the characters, Li Hua himself reviewed it.

Therefore, Li Hua was completely unable to understand the two people's thoughts: "What's wrong?"

Why did you suddenly stop talking?

Could it be that the joke he made was so infernal that it irritated Jason, who had just been resurrected?

Li Hua: "If what I said offended you, I'm sorry..."

"No, no, that's not true!" Jason saw that Li Hua didn't seem to think that way, so he quickly changed the subject and pointed to the sign beside the highway. "I just saw the signpost and suddenly remembered what Batman told me about Blüdhaven... I'm afraid things will be very difficult from now on."

Benjamin chimed in, "What do you mean? Are there bad guys with all sorts of magical powers over there?"

"I assume you mean supervillains, but there aren't any in Blüdhaven, nor are there superheroes...at least not until a year ago," Jason said. "In contrast, Blüdhaven has corruption and crime from top to bottom. From the perspective of an ordinary tourist, Blüdhaven is far more dangerous than Gotham."

Benjamin: "But we're not just ordinary tourists. Do you think there's a chance we could get a fake identity in Blüdhaven and find a part-time job to support ourselves?"

Jason: "Fake identities? Why didn't you tell me you wanted them earlier? Give me a computer and I can make one for you in a day. Now I think you should think more about what we're going to buy later. This will determine the amount of money I'm going to spend on my 'startup'."

Although chocolate and other things are not expensive, a little bit adds up.

Benjamin and Li Hua said in unison: "We want skirts! We want cute and beautiful skirts!"

Jason: “…Huh?”

Fearing Jason would speak out against the original creator again, Li Hua hurriedly explained, "That's my magic boy costume. As long as I wear something cute that suits the designer's six-year-old daughter's aesthetic, I can gain a strong blessing. Think about it, when I was wearing that dress before, I could fall from a height and not die."

No wonder Li Hua always wears that skirt. This level of protection is indeed very important, especially for novices.

Jason had seen the terrible condition of Li Hua's skirt. It was basically ruined.

Jason: "That's easy. We can go directly to the children's clothing store and try them one by one to see which one has the best support. Once you put them on, don't take them off!"

Li Hua is now undoubtedly the one with the strongest control over the field and is also the most vulnerable to attack among them. Such a fragile character with high attack and low imitation must be protected quickly.

Li Hua: "Ah? But that would be really embarrassing..."

Benjamin: "Yeah, and it's broad daylight, so there shouldn't be any problem walking on the main road."

Jason: "What's there to be embarrassed about? No one likes wearing a mask. I'll go buy us some masks later."

Benjamin: "I shouldn't use it. I'm not used to carrying that thing."

Jason: "I understand you're used to wearing a mask for heroic activities, but who would walk around outside in broad daylight wearing an eyepatch? Just make do."

Benjamin: "Oh no! I mean I don't need to cover my face. I never covered my face when I was doing heroic activities before. I'm confident enough about my handsomeness."

Jason:?

Benjamin:?

“…”

After making sure there was no hint of joking in Benjamin's innocent green eyes, Jason solved the case.

Benjamin Tennyson is a huge idiot!!!

Carrying out heroic activities without any facial disguise, it is only a matter of time before he is discovered. Surprisingly, the only reliable person here is Jason Todd!

"Shut up, you two idiots! What's more important, life or face?"

Jason wanted to grab the two men's ears and yell at them.

"Li Hua, your skirt will be welded to you in Bludhaven. If I find you taking it off to change clothes, I will hit your butt hard with a crowbar!"

"And you, Benjamin! From today on, you have to wear a mask with me! If I catch you taking it off, I'll whip your butt with Li Hua's bird-beak staff!"

Number 666 watched Li Hua and Benjamin shrink their necks as Jason scolded them, and felt incredibly happy: "I like this kid."

Under Jason's personal supervision, when Benjamin transformed into an ice ghost and flew into the air at night, Li Hua's outfit had changed into a rainbow-colored cake skirt, and her short hair was filled with a dozen cute little hairpins.

For the first time, Li Hua felt how wonderful the mask was. It not only protected him from the cold wind on the shop floor, but also protected his little bit of self-esteem.

This eye-catching combination is not as good-looking as the previous suit!

No. 666: [But you can't deny that the bonus of your current set of clothes is higher than your previous set.]

Why?! Why on earth is this happening? The previous outfit clearly matches the color scheme and the elements are well-matched, so why is the bonus lower than this random outfit?

No. 666: [Don't forget that your criterion for determining buffs is "clothes a six-year-old girl would find cute." Can you empathize with your own childhood aesthetic?]

Jason, unaware of Li Hua's intense inner thoughts, quipped, "Still being upset? Those who achieve great things don't dwell on trivial matters. Look, aren't you flying quite steadily in this suit?"

Li Hua: "I think the 'small detail' in this sentence may not refer to moral integrity."

Jason: "Hey, young people, what's wrong with being brave enough to try new clothes? And you're lucky, there's so much fabric. I didn't have that kind of money back then. I just ran around in shorts."

Li Hua: "But you're not wearing women's clothes."

Jason: "How can you assume the gender of clothes? Okay, don't be angry, no one will laugh at you because they dare not assume your gender."

Li Hua continued chasing the Ice Ghost with a blank expression: "You really know how to comfort people."

"You're such a compliment," Jason said. "But right now, our priority is to keep an eye on the father and figure out why he suddenly changed his schedule."

According to the original plan, the Ice Ghost would use the metal from those unused and abandoned containers to build its nest, and that was what it was going to do tonight. But in fact, after moving back and forth three times, the Ice Ghost suddenly spread its wings and flew towards a factory in Bludhaven.

They need to find out what the Ice Ghost is doing and whether something has happened again.

Fortunately, all the workers in the factory had gone off work at this time, and the factory probably didn't expect anyone to enter the factory at night, so the Ice Ghost's infiltration did not attract anyone's attention.

Li Hua and Jason are not able to become invisible and pass through walls like the Ice Ghost, but they have their own methods.

Under Jason's command, they carefully sneaked in through the window above the factory, stood on the second-floor platform made of steel, and saw the ice ghost flying towards the molten iron tank hanging in the center of the factory.

Then he tilted the molten iron tank and drank the boiling hot molten iron over a thousand degrees with "tons, tons, tons".

【Catch the bug three times】

PS: There is an undiscovered misunderstanding in this article (currently being corrected) - "Necrofriggian" is not the name of a planet, but the name of a race! So it's not the Necrofriggians, but the "Necrofriggians"! Their home planet is called "Kylmyys"!

PPS: Sorry, it's "the designer's six-year-old daughter", not eight. Sorry! I've been shouting "888fafafa" too much during Chinese New Year, so I made a mistake.
