Chapter 91 [The Angel Returns! 】
[Body Regeneration Level 2: Energy Absorption]
“When being attacked by energy, it can absorb a certain degree of energy, convert it and store it in the body, and explode it when necessary (note that you are If the attack energy exceeds the upper limit, it will still cause damage)"
"The regeneration speed is increased and the body's toughness is improved"
The refreshed ability this time is a bit interesting.
Yang An's eyes lit up. Compared to the simple "hardening", the "energy absorption" awakened this time was completely different.
Sewers and ceilings!
The word energy can be used in a very wide range.
Do electrical energy and thermal energy count as energy? Does mana count as energy, or chakra, qi, etc.
It can absorb the energy of the attack and then explode it to attack others. It is like "moving a thousand pounds with four ounces", although it has not been tested how much maximum energy Yang An can withstand.
But if you can advance this ability, you may win the jackpot.
Yang An felt it was necessary to go back and sort out his current abilities and talents, and make a regular classification.
He has more and more abilities now, and it’s time to classify them carefully. It’s best to think about the prospects of his abilities again.
Even in Hell's Kitchen.
The noise of Yang An's battle with the alienated man just now was not small. In addition, the alienated man was crying and howling, and the siren of the police car was getting closer and closer.
Yang An came back from his meditation and entered the invisible state.
The body quickly became lighter in the messy bar, and finally disappeared.
This "invisibility" is not bad. Although it is not as good as the invisibility talent, some of Yang An's talents cannot be given to the parasitized person. For example, invisibility can only be given to the completely parasitized person.
But invisibility is different. Invisibility can be given to the parasite, which is a very useful ability.
Yang Angang left not long ago.
Police vehicles arrived and surrounded the warehouse-turned-bar.
"People inside, listen, we are the New York police. Now you are surrounded, come out immediately! Otherwise we will throw tear gas in."
After the emergence of extraordinary powers, New York City Congress passed a law on an emergency basis giving New York police more law enforcement authority.
Politicians who have always procrastinated in politics. This time. Finally, they did something practical, at least that's what most police think.
There has been no response from the house.
The police waited patiently for half an hour.
Two waves of tear gas and shock bombs were thrown, and finally the commandos stormed into the bar.
It turns out that there are human remains everywhere, from those bar thugs and gang members, who returned to human form after being violently killed by Yang An.
"Sir! There is a discovery here!"
The police officers dispersed in a circle, trying to determine if there were any survivors, and one of the police officers discovered
There was a monster like a black bear, unconscious under a collapsed wall.
It was James the black bear who was beaten up by Yang An before. His alienation was completely alienated, and he was very lucky not to die.
But if he falls into the hands of the authorities, his ending may be even more miserable than dying on the spot.
Soon, a large number of police officers wearing chemical protective suits rushed in, including the director of the neighborhood branch. He was very surprised when he saw the unconscious alienated black bear.
“Be careful and drag it back, guys we caught a big fish!”
Officials have been regretting that they have not been able to find a living 'devil' from Rikers Island. It is definitely a great achievement to finally find one this time.
After this incident.
New York seems to have returned to its previous calm, with nothing major happening.
The extraordinary power that just emerged seems to have disappeared again.
In the official announcement.
The Rikers Island disaster was characterized as an act of malicious arson.
——It is a pity that although after the incident, the New York police and firefighters worked hard to save the lives of prisoners and patients on the island.
Unfortunately, due to many reasons such as the island’s old equipment and imperfect management, coupled with the fact that the prison did not open the cells in time.
In the end, more than 13,000 people died in the fire!
As for this outrageous report, does anyone believe it?
That's not the government's business.
Anyway, the report is out. It is very detailed and has more than two hundred pages. If you are not convinced, you can investigate the truth yourself.
Rikers Island has been investigated over and over again, leaving only worthless buildings that were burned to rubble.
Because the "Gate to Hell" is suspected to exist here, it is classified as the highest level restricted area and no one is allowed to enter.
The media were also warned and asked to remain silent on the matter. At the same time, officials also deleted a large number of videos about the 'Seraphs' and 'Demons'.
Pretend nothing happened.
Very good, this is very American and very free.
As time goes by, many people believe that this is a sad and tragic accident.
Even a good thing.
For example, the "Daily Bugle" said that those evil thugs and thugs should die in the sea of fire, which can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.
This statement caused great controversy.
There are supporters and opponents.
It is said that the editor-in-chief of the Daily Bugle was warned that there were grieving family members of the prisoners and that they would pay a huge price to buy his life!
People’s attention shifted from extraordinary events to the human rights of criminals.
Triggered a big debate between the two parties, for example, prisoners are also human beings, and the life of a prisoner is also a life.
And because most of the dead were black people, the black group was very dissatisfied and launched a series of demonstrations.
At the same time, there is also an eye-catching news.
——Tony Stark is suspected to be critically ill. After rescue, his life is not in danger, but he is unable to handle company affairs.
Howard Stark's friend and founder of Stark Industries "Obadiah Stany" will take over the company's operations and management again.
Acting Chairman Obadiah announced - Restarting the Stark weapons production department!
This also caused an uproar, and Stark Industries' falling stock price rose in response.
Various news appears.
After you sing, I will appear on the stage. It will be a lively performance.
In this way, no one paid attention to the Rikers Island disaster.
After all, most of the dead are prisoners. Although everyone says that prisoners are also human beings and the lives of prisoners are also lives, but in fact, who cares?
Their lives are just tools used by others to make profits.
Of course, this is just to deceive the unsuspecting citizens.
The emergence of extraordinary power and the existence of demons has caused an uproar among the upper echelons.
Under the appointment of the President, S.H.I.E.L.D., together with the New York police and the military, will establish a joint emergency department specializing in dealing with mysterious forces.
To deal with possible extraordinary crises.
Chief George Stacy appears to have resigned due to the Rikers Island incident.
But actually!
He was appointed as the leader of this new department.
After a week of careful interrogation by SHIELD and official personnel, Director George.
SHIELD determined that Director George had nothing to hide and was a very responsible policeman who was committed to the government.
Chief George was finally released. Being questioned day and night as if he were a criminal made this tough guy very tired, with dark circles under his eyes, but he was in good spirits and had no complaints.
Director George's physical fitness seems to have been greatly improved after transforming into Seraph.
After official research, it was found that Director George's physical fitness was much higher than Captain America, who had been injected with human enhanced serum during World War II.
Director George also became younger, as if he had regained his youth and turned into a young man in his mid-twenties.
Such changes are the envy of countless politicians whose bodies have decayed.
They tried every possible means to get something from George.
But unfortunately, Director George doesn’t know anything.
The official can only attribute the powerful strength and superhuman physical fitness he controls to the blessing of an 'angel'.
Dr. Connors is also wanted.
Not only was he responsible for the Brooklyn Bridge incident, but he was also suspected to be a follower of the devil.
Because Dr. Connors once preached the existence of the "Holy Lord" on Fifth Avenue.
"Holy Lord" - is temporarily regarded as an evil demon representative.
After plowing three feet of Rikers Island, it can be confirmed that the so-called 'Gate to Hell' should not appear in a physical form.
At least official investigators found no trace.
But they dare not conclude that it does not exist. After all, it is the passage of angels.
In the end, experts can only guess that the "Gate to Hell" probably exists in a subspace that cannot be observed by humans.
The prisoners who mutated into monsters and returned to human form after death further confirmed this speculation.
——Devils do not have entities, but turn ordinary people into demons through methods similar to divine descent or parasitism.
This means that, except for Director George, who seems to be able to cause great harm to the incarnation of the devil, humans seem to have no better way to resist demonic possession.
This triggered a greater sense of crisis at the top.
Order this newly established department to do everything possible to figure out how the devil exists, to obtain more information about the devil and the Holy Lord, as well as preventive measures.
What a pity.
After the ‘angel’ reminded Director George, he never came again, so Director George didn’t know much.
The official can only place their hope in Dr. Connors, who is also involved with the "Holy Lord" and committed more than ten murders while on the run.
Hope to get more truth from him.
Sunday!
SHIELD New York Branch - now the "Federal Crisis Rapid Response Office"
"Mr. George, please try this new summoning method again."
Agent Coulson knocked on the office door.
George was looking at the photos of his family in a daze, obviously having nothing to do.
On the contrary, Coulson, as a major participant in SHIELD, has now become the deputy director of the office, serving as Director George's deputy, and is extremely busy.
This situation occurs.
This is because although George was appointed as the top executive, most of the work was actually handled by SHIELD.
It's just that the official didn't want Director George to be admitted to S.H.I.E.L.D., so they came up with this strategy to tie up George Stacy.
"Are we going to continue?" George felt dizzy when he heard what kind of ceremony was going to be performed.
In order to allow George to contact the angels again, the officials made great efforts and collected thousands of religious summoning rituals from all over the world.
It can be regarded as a desperate illness and he went to the doctor to try to get George in touch with the angel.
But George was very resistant to this, because religious rituals often involve pure souls or young bodies, which the upright Director George was unwilling to accept.
Those girls are about the same age as Gwen!
God, this is true blasphemy.
This is not a method of summoning angels. It is obviously used to summon demons.
"With all due respect, I don't think these are of much use." George Stacey's tone was a little stiff.
And he hasn't been home for more than a week.
He doesn't want to attend any ceremony now, he just wants to go home and see his wife and children.
Colson was also helpless.
He actually doesn’t want to engage in these rituals, but who makes his boss, Nick Fury, have to obey official requirements.
So I had no choice but to persuade, "This is the last attempt, and it is a very ancient ritual found in the library of Vantiya. Director George, you should try it."
"Okay." George heard this and rubbed his brows as he had a headache and stood up, "But I don't think it will be effective."
Colson responded with a wry smile.
Both of them knew that the reason why the higher-ups were so eager to contact the 'angels' was actually for selfish desires, such as wanting to be young again, wanting to live forever, wanting to cure diseases, etc.
How could an angel descend like this?
As expected.
This attempt still ended in failure.
After Director George learned that he could leave here freely and go home to visit his family, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although even if he goes back, all his itineraries will be closely monitored, and scientific researchers prohibit him from having any close contact with his wife.
But at least he gained some freedom.
Just as Director George was taking a special car on his way home.
A white light suddenly enveloped Director George's vehicle!
The SHIELD employee responsible for following the surveillance immediately reported the incident to Coulson.
Coulson was overjoyed.
Immediately ask the agents not to act rashly, clear the streets, and wait for him to pass.
Inside a car that continues to drive on the road.
Yang An turned into an angel and appeared quietly in the car again.
If Director George hadn't suddenly noticed a layer of white light blocking the car window, he wouldn't have noticed that the "angel" had arrived.
Director George looked at the angel who seemed to be very friendly and casually sat next to him. His whole body was tense and he was on alert.
Just when he was hesitating whether to say something first.
The gentle and unmistakable voice of ‘Angel’ appeared in Director George’s heart.
"Congratulations on successfully withstanding the baptism of the holy flame and repelling the demons that brought harm to the world."
Director George was not too surprised that the angel could directly communicate with his heart. .
He tried to reply with words of gratitude in his heart, but felt a little awkward.
“Don’t worry so much, just speak.”
Angel Wenwen continued to say in George’s heart.
“But some alienated demons are just the terrifying and evil existence that happens casually, and human beings are in extreme danger!”
Director George finally couldn’t help it, and asked him what his last concerns.
"——Then why, the great and almighty God, does not directly help his believers."
