Chapter five hundred and eighty fifth infected body
The Hummer was still running rapidly, and the f22 in the sky seemed to realize their intentions, and even delayed the attack time and tried to cooperate with them.
The people in the car were silent. In any case, walking on a road to death was not a good experience. But in this case, no one spoke. It was rare that almost everyone agreed to this plan. In this era, there were actually not many American soldiers in the true sense. Most of them were professional soldiers fighting for money. But what was amazing is that everyone in the whole car actually recognized this difficult decision. Some kind of warning seemed to be generated in their hearts, and if they did not do so, they would have a greater threat.
The vehicles had traveled nearly ten kilometers. However, the apostles behind them never launched an attack on them. The bombers in the sky did not release nuclear weapons.
"What happened? That monster's movements seemed to slow down?"
In the rearview mirror, I saw that the apostle who had followed them slowly gradually stopped moving. This made everyone in the car stop the vehicle involuntarily.
"It doesn't move? What's going on?"
"Because it feels fear. That's such a disgusting and terrifying monster. Is this thing everywhere in your world?"
A voice came from behind everyone. When everyone looked back, they saw six strange men in strange robes standing behind them. For some reason, when everyone saw each other, they always involuntarily thought of characters like magicians and wizards. Because their outfits were extremely magical.
"No matter who you are, this place will be destroyed soon. Leave here." Strange said to the group of people with disguise.
"If you are talking about the two bombers in the sky, I have asked them to go back. No matter when, don't throw nuclear bombs into your own territory. Don't you know this simple question?"
"But we can't kill that thing. He is constantly evolving and will soon be completely out of control. At that time, it may threaten our entire world. We must do this and end everything here." Strange's tone was a little excited. He was scared, as if he felt that he shouldn't be out of control at this time.
"That's true, that's why the teacher called us." The man in the lead looked at him deeply, his eyes changed slightly, but then he replied to normal.
At this time, when the apostle opposite faced these people, he began to slowly retreat. Some sense of its sense seemed to guide it away from these strange guys. However, another instinct made it unwilling to give up its own things, so the apostle actually hesitated for a moment.
"I heard you can adapt to all attacks. You can adapt to this."
The man in the leader raised his hand slightly, and a ring on his right hand lit up slightly. A fire suddenly lit up on the apostle opposite. It was a red flame, which seemed to be a little different from the conventional flame. It seemed that the temperature was not high, but the apostle rolled onto the ground, making a shrill roar from his mouth, as if he was suffering a great pain.
The roar was accompanied by a special effect of a sonic weapon. But John and others only felt their minds fainted and then replied to normal. When they looked closely, they saw a transparent protective cover around them at some point. At this time, the protective cover was constantly spreading out some kind of ripple, as if they were subjected to some invisible attack. This also made them see the originally transparent protective cover.
"This is……"
"It's magic." Strange said affirmatively. His speech immediately surprised everyone. Aren't you a scientific consultant of the military? This statement should not appear in your mouth?
"No need to look at me. From their outfits, to their weapons (rings) to their appearance, to their current combat scenes, they all show that they use methods that are completely different from our technology system. In this case, the first thing we think of should be magic."
"But you are a scientist?"
"What's wrong with scientists? Science does not recognize magic because they are afraid that what they have learned will be subverted. But I only believe in the facts I see."
"Well, just look at your way of thinking, you have an extremely outstanding talent for mages. It's a pity..." A man who looked like a magician said to praise. They did not attack the apostle, but were just sprinting for the man. He seemed to admire Strange, but his words were a little uneasy.
Strange frowned, and he keenly felt the pity the other party said, which seemed to have some profound meaning. But when he wanted to ask, the other party no longer responded to him. At this time, new changes appeared on the field.
The apostle who was struggling to support the flames actually stood up again. This made the magician who was manipulating the flames frown slightly.
"It's hard to believe that he has adapted to the hidden fire in such a short time. This can be regarded as a high-end product in the magic flame. What exactly is this thing?"
"His body used some unknown method to extract the lives of hundreds of people. It seems that he can quickly adapt to various attacks. Once an attack cannot kill it, the next attack will not take effect." Strange explained.
"The aggregate of life, that is, its body carries some kind of advanced life form. It is a life that comes from outside the world and is rejected by the world. Therefore, it is necessary to use the flesh and blood of this world as a cover. I haven't seen monsters outside the world for a while. Let's do it."
The style of painting changed, and the magician who was still feeling just now suddenly issued a command to kill. At this moment, the five magicians around finally took action. Only then did everyone realize that just now, these magicians had done some tricks around them. A protective cover of a hemisphere that was faintly visible closed the space of hundreds of meters.
It was then that the apostle realized that the guys in front of him were completely different from the soldiers they fought before. There was no accumulation of knowledge about this phenomenon in the memories of the hundreds of people it drew.
The apostle's body changed rapidly and instantly turned into a tall giant image. The explosive muscles showed that this was a body that was extremely powerful. It roared out of its mouth, like a real human, and punched the protective cover. But this shocking punch only created some kind of ripple for the protective cover.
The apostle's body changed immediately. This time, its neck changed significantly. To be precise, it should be that the vocal organs in its throat had changed. Thousands of organs were arranged densely and combined with each other. With the apostle's manipulation, a powerful ultrasound wave was emitted instantly.
The sound waves caused the surrounding air, and even all particles in the air to vibrate violently. The protective cover in front of the apostle also showed violent fluctuations. But at this time, several mages around him made a few simple actions. A looming rune flashed by on the protective cover. The ultrasound waves that could cause strong vibrations before failed instantly.
"Don't ask me why? This is a combination of runeology and defensive magic. It can be regarded as an advanced magic knowledge. I finally got rid of the status of a lecturer and would not be giving lectures on site here." Strange was about to ask why, but the man in charge came back.
The apostle seemed to realize that this method would not succeed and took the initiative to stop the ultrasound. This time, its right arm changed. A viscous liquid was spit out by its right arm and accumulated to the edge of the protective cover. Then the apostle took a few steps back and emitted an electric arc from his left arm, hitting the ball of mucus. A violent explosion and a flame rose.
The apostle was knocked down by his own explosion shock wave, but when it stood up, it found that the protective cover was not damaged at all. At this time, the apostle finally realized that he could not break the obstacle head-on. So he turned around and faced everyone again.
"It seems that he realized something and wanted to fight us."
"It doesn't seem to be very complete, and some logical reactions are delayed. Now I think it's too late to fight to the death. Exile."
With a command, some kind of twisted space vortex appeared around the apostle. The apostle seemed to know what it was? Suddenly, a shrill roar was made. Then he struggled forward desperately, trying to get out of the attraction of the vortex.
"It knows what this is? So it's not that consciousness is incomplete. It's this body that cannot perfectly bear that will. That's why the logical delay we feel is present."
The apostle's struggle ultimately had no effect. The irresistible attraction directly forced it into the vortex.
"This is over? Where have you banished it?"
"You can understand it as an imaginary space, which is completely different from our existing world laws. There is no existence of life that we know, and it is one of the countless different dimensions. Well, this is not the same as a parallel universe, but I don't plan to explain it in detail, so don't ask too much."
"...Okay, I just pretend I understand. I am a scientific consultant to the US military, Dr. Strange. On behalf of the US government, I would like to thank you for your support."
"I am the honorary president of the Winter Magic Academy, and also serves as the president of the Genesis Mage Cultivation Center, the Great Magician, the Will of Fire, the ninth seat of the Justice League, the Second Brigade Mage, the Chief Disciple of the First Brigade Mage, and Ray Westeros. They are my disciples." Lei solemnly threw out a large number of titles and sent several Earthling Towns opposite him to him. He also held a magic wand and introduced himself solemnly. At the same time, he did not hold the hand that Strange handed over.
"...... It's really... well, we should rush back to the command center right now. As far as I know, there may be more than one apostle, and we need your help to destroy them."
"Don't worry, this time the action is coming, more than one of us. The teacher took out a large number of people in the multiverse and came to the world to stabilize the situation. My juniors and sisters probably are already dealing with other events. I believe that this level of threat is not a threat. However, the world is becoming more and more serious. We cannot protect it forever. We can only hope that the teacher's plan will be successful."
"Well, we have to go back and report. Everything that happened today may have a huge impact on the whole situation."
"I'm so sorry, I'm afraid I can't let you go back." Lei said with deep meaning.
"What do you mean? I thought you were here to help?"
"We are really here to help, so we can't let you go back. What do you want to go back?"
"I'm going back to report on what's going on here. Is there any problem?"
"Is that the only thing? Don't you want to do something else?"
"Of course I want to go back to report the situation, and... and... make everyone... like us."
"Are they different from you now?"
"Of course it's different, we're different. We... are different. We... we're going back, right away." Strange's voice began to have some logical confusion. The situation was good, and it began to become a little weird.
"Tell me what's different about you?"
"What's different? It's... different. Why do you have to worry about this kind of problem? I know how to save the world now. Let me go back, as long as I make them the same as me, I can save the world. No... No... Not like this..."
Strange's face showed a struggle expression, as if he was struggling about what was different between them, and seemed to be fighting for something. At this time, the soldiers behind him, John and others had already begun to try to break out of the encirclement. However, they were easily controlled by the mages on the spot.
"You have a very firm will, Strange. Resist it, resist the instincts that appear in your heart. They seem so reasonable and natural. But I want you to resist it, resist your instincts now. It's very painful, just like forcing your body to do what you don't like to do the least. But you have to remember that the reason why humans are human is because we have desires. But in many cases, we can restrain our desires and restrain the instincts that surge in our hearts. That's not you."
"It's so strange. I can't check it out at all. Where did they get infected? I can only feel something is wrong with them." said a mage beside Lei.
"That's because you know only the body. They were obviously infected very early. Perhaps when they first saw that monster, they were infected. This is also the reason why they were able to survive until now. The creature named Apostle came not to make themselves powerful, but to expand the scope of their family. Their previous plan should be the final counterattack made by the will.
What's more serious is that this infection is unaware of by the host. They may even involuntarily act according to the will of the infected body. However, deep down they think it is their own will and firmly believe that it is the right thing to do.
As he was talking, Strange seemed unable to resist it. He saw some kind of twist in his body. It was very direct twist. It was like a lifelike clay man who was pinched with another ball of clay and was slapped on his body. Half of his body expanded irregularly and rapidly. Countless tentacles and sarcoma broke his clothes and appeared on the surface of his body.
The strangest thing is that Strange didn't seem to realize what was happening in his body. He just kept muttering.
