Chapter 206 Chapter 206 A secret code that only a magic boy can understand...
Pierce once made a serious mistake with his friends Helen and Manny.
After discovering their innate powers, they spontaneously formed a team to hunt aliens. They indiscriminately killed all aliens they saw and believed they were doing a good deed.
But as the "hunt" operation progressed, Pierce gradually realized that something was wrong. He realized that the aliens being hunted did not seem to be entirely bad guys, but before he could tell his teammates about this discovery, he was caught up in the "destroyer".
Fortunately, the "destroyer" they had been using to execute aliens was actually a Void Projector. Pierce and the aliens he accidentally injured were simply thrown into the Void and did not die.
In the Void Zero Realm, Pierce met Wolf Head, who revealed his true identity: an alien hybrid. And just as Pierce had previously realized, not all aliens were bad guys. Many of them were just ordinary, law-abiding people, and some were even alien hybrids like Pierce, Manny, and Helen.
When Pierce heard the news, he was devastated.
He originally thought he was saving the Earth, but he didn't consider that people might just be living a normal Earthling life, taking a stroll after get off work, buying discounted food at a convenience store, then turning around and beating up Pierce, Manny, and Helen, and then throwing them into the Void Zero Realm.
After fighting crime for so long, the criminal turned out to be me!
No matter how much you collapse, you must make up for the mistakes you made.
To make up for his mistake, Pierce began searching for those he had mistakenly captured in the Void Zero Realm, trying to gain their forgiveness. He also began assisting Wolf Head in his fight against the Zero Realm King, truly helping others.
During this process, Pierce met Helen and Manny, who took the initiative to enter the void after learning the truth.
Wolf Head accepted them with all his heart and guided them to become better people. It can be said that except that the food Wolf Head made was really appetizing, Pierce could not find any shortcomings of Wolf Head.
It is precisely because of his extremely high personal charm and ability to unite the people that Wolf Head has always been regarded as a thorn in the eyes of King Zero and his subordinates.
Pierce swore that this time he would definitely protect the Wolf Head who had saved his life, and would never let any suspicious person get close to the Wolf Head's residence.
"What if we must go and find the Wolf Head?"
The three people who visited today turned back again, and the one who called himself Kevin asked.
Pierce landed from the air: "Fight with me."
"I like this proposal." Kevin squatted down and touched the ground, turning himself into stone. "Would you choose a one-on-one fight or a group fight?"
Kevin and Pierce then engaged in a stabbing and hammering battle on the bridge. Jason sighed, "Is it because both universes originate from the same source? This skill of judging people makes me feel like I'm back home."
Li Hua: ".......Please don't exacerbate my stereotype of your superheroes, okay?"
Once again, Li Hua believes that he cannot be a superhero not because he is a magical boy, but because he is not used to the meet-and-beat method of negotiation.
Kevin is covered in stone armor but has slow attacks, while Pierce can extend his spikes at will, moves quickly, and is obviously trained in combat, but his spikes themselves are not very strong.
The battle between the two was a battle between a heavily armored warrior and a fragile assassin. The fight lasted for five minutes without any result until Pierce announced a pause in the test after being knocked away once.
Although Kevin was not injured, he was also really angry about the scraping battle just now: "What, you admit defeat?"
"I wasn't looking for a showdown. I was simply verifying your credentials to see Wolf Head." Pierce retracted his spikes and shook hands with Kevin. "If they were spies of King Zero, they wouldn't fight me openly, nor would they watch me so obediently from the sidelines."
Kevin, who really thought he could beat Pierce and was considering whether to use force, said: "You and Ben must get along well."
Too open and aboveboard, too open and aboveboard.
Li Hua, who was actually considering sneaking in with Jason if Kevin couldn't beat them, said, "I think so too."
Jason, who had already spotted the loophole in Pierce's attack and was considering using his BUG wand to transform and take over if Kevin couldn't defeat him, said, "I second the motion."
Pierce led them along a long stone path. Across the path, on a floating island, stood a hand-built hut. Before entering, Pierce whispered, "Friendly reminder: don't eat anything Wolf Head offers you."
Jason: “Is it poisonous?”
"Not really." Pierce showed a story-filled expression. "While it won't kill you, your taste buds and optic nerve cells might be affected."
Everyone:......
Pierce, what on earth have you been through?
The three of them walked into the hut, which was located in the shade for the sake of concealment. The only light source in the entire hut was the fire in the earthen stove. A tall and strong man wearing a cloak sat with his back to Li Hua and the others, stirring something in a small pot on the earthen stove.
"Mr. Wolf Head, are you free now?" Jason asked, "We'd like to talk to you about dealing with that Zero Realm King."
"Oh, of course, I've just put the stew on."
"Wolf Head" turned around and took off his hood, revealing the face of a white-haired old man. His face looked very harmonious under the firelight.
"It's just that the portion might not be enough. I don't have customers here often."
The firelight in the room was still too dim for illumination. As Jason approached, he realized that the old man's features were not only friendly but also familiar.
The similarity between these eyebrows and eyes was not as obvious as that between Damian and his father, but it still gave Jason an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.
When Jason was about to ask Li Hua, Li Hua and Kevin had already launched a reconnaissance charge.
Li Hua: "Do you have a grandson......?"
Kevin: "Aren't you Gwen and Ben's grandfather? But I saw you being..."
"Kevin?"
The old man then noticed that Kevin, who was standing at the back with black hair and a black shirt, almost blending into the background, also looked very surprised, but he still chose to answer the question of the uneasy young man first.
"When I detonated the Void Zero Grenade, I wasn't killed, but was sucked here."
When Mark Tennyson dismantled the condenser of the portable Void Projector to make a super-powerful grenade to protect his grandchildren and Kevin, a rising star, he really wanted to die together with the enemy, and even said it in his last words.
After the explosion, Mark opened and closed his eyes and found that he was not dead, but was still floating in the void.
Mark: "Then how did you come to the Void Zero Realm?"
Kevin was quite respectful of the old man who acknowledged his eligibility to wear the Tiangong Association badge. He rubbed the back of his head awkwardly and laughed dryly, "We were ambushed by the Evolved... This was an accident. I'll definitely teach them a lesson when we get out!"
"Your enemies have used the same method that your teammates used to plot against them to plot against you and your teammates again" or something like that...it sounds very repetitive and funny.
Jason: "It's a shame Gwen and Ben were grounded for the past few nights. Otherwise, if they had followed you and seen you alive, they would have been so happy."
"I miss my children, too." Mark looked at Kevin cheerfully and spread his hands in the direction of Jason and Li Hua. "Would you mind introducing us to each other?"
Jason: "This is a long story, you missed a lot of the plot."
Mark smiled gently and said, "Then maybe you can give me a chance to make up for it?"
Just as Li Hua was pondering where to begin, No. 666's long-lost telepathic reminder rang out: [A telepathic message with a unique frequency has been detected. The person claiming to be Gwen Tennyson is here to assist you in your departure. Do you wish to answer the call?]
"Wait a minute, Gwen seems to have contacted me, let me hear what she has to say."
Li Hua raised his hand, took out his portable communication device with his other hand to check the time, and at the same time spoke to No. 666 through mental communication.
【Connected.】
Judging from the time they fell into the void, Benjamin took emergency measures immediately after their signal was interrupted.
"So fast?" Kevin muttered in a very low voice, "How did he know we were missing so quickly? I thought he was already asleep."
Jason also explained quietly, "The communication equipment around us and Ben will send out signals regularly. If it can't be received, it will send an alert directly."
In fact, they had similar backup procedures when they acted before, but the times when Li Hua and Benjamin were kidnapped when they acted alone were unusual.
Either the enemy was killed before they could even provide support, like Li Hua, Scarecrow, and Desmond. Or the kidnapping ended before they could even provide support, like Benjamin and Luther... In short, the alarm never even had time to sound, so much so that before today, they had almost forgotten its existence.
Mark took it all in, and the more he looked, the more relieved he felt.
Sure enough, no matter what time, the world will never lack young people who are brave, resourceful and just.
Perhaps it won't be long before he can consider retirement again.
Li Hua: "The person who calls herself Gwen said that there are too many interferences here. She doesn't have enough energy to tear open the portal now. We have to wait until she is well rested, which will be tomorrow at the latest. I told her that we are fine and let her rest in peace."
Although Li Hua has not received orthodox mage education, he also knows that the meticulous work of casting spells is closely related to energy.
Judging from the time, Gwen hasn't rested or slept for a whole day and night. She also used celestial magic to look for Benjamin all night yesterday. It must be very difficult for her to find him across dimensions now.
"The interference noise is increasing. Communication will probably be cut off soon."
Even with the help of No. 666 to stabilize the wavelength of the mind network and reduce noise, the signal and tone became worse and worse, and at most only one sentence could be transmitted.
So Li Hua said quickly, "I told them that Pierce and the others are still alive, but I didn't tell them about Mark because I wasn't sure if the person on the other end was really Gwen and if the message would be intercepted. I can try and pass on a message. Is there anything I can say that can ensure that only our people on the other end can understand it, while also conveying the confidential information that Mark is still alive? Hurry!"
"Me!" Jason yelled. "Repeat my words—'You never thought, Ben? Before, you and Li Hua dug for me, but now it's Li Hua and I who have to dig for your grandfather!'"
The "Dig the ground to survive" in Jason's words is not a literal translation of "Dig the ground to survive", but "Getting Over It with Bet Foddy", which is the name of a hoe-swinging game.
Two of the three magic boys have language translators, one is proficient in two languages, and all three guys were bored at some point and played this game. All three of them participated in Jason's grave digging operation and would play this joke on a regular basis.
If this "Gwen" was real, Benjamin would be next to her now and he would definitely understand what this meant.
But if an outsider searches for this keyword, they will only find a game about a man sitting in a jar with no lower body and can only move by waving a hoe, and then watch blankly as this jar-shaped man swings the hoe 360 degrees magically.
They might begin to suspect that it was the interference of the Void Zero Realm that caused people to mishear the information, or they might suspect that Li Hua, who was transmitting the message, was mentally ill and talking nonsense, but they would never know the important information contained therein.
You would never guess what kind of amazing wisdom Jason has condensed in this short sentence!
