Chapter 518: Snailization
"What is this?"
"Rainbow!"
As Dominic Butch's voice fell, a large number of rainbows began to appear around Vision.
Brilliant rainbows sprung up like mushrooms after a rain from the hands of the stand-in [Weather Forecast], and continued to move in the direction of the camp like a living object in the wilderness.
"Hulk, arm!"
At this moment, Hulk, not far away, suddenly let out a roar that was clearly panicked.
"What, how could it be?!"
Vision turned his head and saw a rainbow hanging right next to Hulk standing in the pit, clutching his thick arms and roaring angrily.
At the Hulk's arm, a large number of milky white transparent eggs burst out of Hulk's arms, and these round transparent eggs carried a large amount of green blood, as if they had grown from Hulk's arms.
In the face of the intense pain of the broken arm, the roar from Hulk's mouth became even louder.
The super regenerative ability caused the Hulk's broken arm skin to heal continuously, but a steady stream of transparent eggs forcibly broke the wound and landed on the ground.
Naturally, it is not only the Hulk that is mutated by touching the rainbow, but many American soldiers in the camp are also inadvertently rubbed by the moving rainbow.
"What's going on?"
"Sir, there seems to be something strange about my body."
"No, get out of my way, you demon, demon, demon......"
In front of the humble shelter built by Ultron, Sam the Falcon couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva as he looked at the rainbow moving around the camp and the strange situation that happened to the American soldiers.
"It's the problem with these rainbows."
With a frown, he swept over the strange rainbow around him, and the originally brilliant rainbow was now as deadly as the devil in Natasha's eyes.
Just as Natasha had guessed, under the gaze of the Avengers, the bodies of the American soldiers touched by the rainbow mutated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a large number of transparent egg shells emerged from the contact parts, and then the eggs quickly hatched and broke, burrowing snails and climbing on their bodies.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of snails appeared on these American soldiers who came into contact with the rainbow.
Strange to say, there were a large number of snails breaking out of their bodies, but the American soldiers themselves seemed to have not noticed anything unusual about their bodies at all.
was still doing their own actions normally, but the comrades-in-arms around them couldn't help but let out a cry of horror when they saw the strange appearance on their bodies.
Next to General Ross, the same soldier who was touched by the rainbow, his head broke open, and a large number of snails that broke out of their eggs climbed and moved on his face, leaving trails of slime, but he didn't feel anything, looking at the soldiers around him who were crawling on his body by snails, and reported to General Ross.
"Be careful, don't let these rainbows touch your body!"
Reaching out and grabbing Natasha's arm, Steve said with a solemn expression as he looked at a rainbow that appeared next to the makeshift shelter and was close to where Natasha had been.
"These rainbows seem to possess terrifying abilities, and anyone who comes into contact with them will hatch a snail from their body, and over time even the contact itself will get closer and closer to the snail."
On the way from the camp, Steve saw many American soldiers who came into contact with Rainbow constantly changing their bodies, and eventually even their hands and feet degenerated into snail-like bodies.
"Captain, look at the shelter!"
Here, Natasha looked at the rainbow that almost touched her, and on the other side, Sam the Falcon exclaimed as she looked at the scene in the shelter behind her.
As Sam cried, a large number of snails appeared on the shelter built by Ultron, and at the same time, the inside of the shelter began to scream.
……
"You caused all this?"
"[Dominic Butch]!"
The eerie rainbow and the Hulk and the changes in the camp made Vision's originally calm face change.
"Do you know ozone? Visual hallucinations. ”
"That's a layer higher than the sky, although the current human technology has been able to make a certain degree of analysis of the existence of ozone, but obviously there is still a certain degree of error, my stand-in [weather forecast] ability comes from the control of the atmospheric clouds, so, if this ability is applied to the ozone layer, what will happen if it destroys and changes?"
"You're saying that this rainbow that turns people into snails is the climate you create by changing the ozone layer in the atmosphere."
Hearing Dominic Butch's explanation, Vision's brow furrowed, and he turned his head to look in the direction of Hulk, who was originally just an arm to exert an effect, but now his entire upper body had the characteristics of a snail, lying on the ground and squirming.
"Hao...... Hulk ......"
"That's right."
Nodding slightly, Dominic Butch's gaze swept over the snail-like Hulk, and to be honest, the effect of the double's stand-in ability of Tempest was beyond his imagination.
The principle of the ability of the storm is actually that [Dominic Butch] changes the refractive index of sunlight in the ozone layer of the atmosphere through his stand-in [Weather Forecast], producing a natural "subliminal effect", affecting the biological and spiritual level, making those affected by the rainbow believe that they will become snails, and as the cells in the body degenerate under the influence of the subconscious, they will become real snails.
The process of launching the whole ability is quite idealistic and unscientific, however, the stand-in itself is a product of unscientific ability, and the world of Meiman where Li Ran is located is not a world that talks about science, plus the endorsement of the system, the entire ability activation process can be regarded as the past.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that the weather forecast himself is immune to the snail effect of the stand-in ability of the storm.
In addition, blind people are not affected by this ability.
In other words, Daredevil Matt is immune to the damage of the Tempest.
"If I can, I don't plan to use this ability of [Weather Forecast], the mental power required to change the ozone layer is too huge, and it is a huge consumption for me, on the other hand, the ability of Tempest is a completely indiscriminate attack, and any target who comes into contact with this ability will be affected, and once this ability is used, it will be difficult for me to end it even as the controller of [Weather Forecast], because the generation of these rainbows is not deliberately controlled by me, Rather, it is an extreme natural phenomenon formed unconsciously, and unless a few captains of the SCP Foundation step in to stop it, I can only wait until my spiritual power is completely depleted. ”
"In that case, if you want to stop this strange weather phenomenon, you must be defeated." A small bookstore
In the face of [Dominic Butch]'s words, the illusion controlled the body to float, and then as the surface of the body floated, the whole appearance once again appeared to be blurred.
In order to keep his body from coming into contact with these eerie rainbows, Vision dodges with the ability to blur.
After blurring his body, Vision looked at [Dominic Butch] who was standing behind the stand-in [Weather Forecast] with a weak expression, and as the ability of the storm continued to be activated, his own face seemed to become a little paler, judging from the situation that [Dominic Butch] was showing at the moment, Vision guessed that he didn't even have to do it himself, and it wouldn't be long before [Dominic Butch] himself would fall down because he had consumed all his mental power as he said.
It's just that his gaze swept over the more obvious snailization of Hulk in the pit, and Vision felt that he couldn't wait any longer.
……
Boom –
"Be careful, guys!"
Emitting a shockwave from the palm of his hand to destroy the snails climbing outside the shelter, Ultron, who was wearing a snail, did not come out of the house, turned his dark blue gaze to Steve and the others, and his always gentle and rational voice carried an obvious warning meaning.
"Don't be touched by these snails, if you come into contact with these snails, it will be like being touched by a rainbow, and your body will be abnormal."
In the shelter behind Ultron, a large number of American soldiers who had been touched by the snails moved slowly with an extremely slow movement.
"Ultron, are you alright?"
Looking at these American soldiers whose bodies also showed the characteristics of snails, Steve looked at Ultron in front of him and the snail on his body, and said worriedly.
"Rest assured, Captain, I'm not affected by these snails."
Facing the relationship shown by Captain America, Ultron nodded slightly.
It reached out and plucked a snail that had crawled onto its mechanical eye, and explained: "The distortion effects of these rainbows and snails seem to only work on humans, and as a mechanical lifeform, I seem to have the ability to be immune to this effect. ”
As an artificial intelligence, Ultron is not blind like Matt though.
However, the mind itself is composed of a series of data, and there is no subconscious that humans have.
Without the subconscious, it is natural that the ability to change the subconscious mind will not be affected by the [weather forecast].
In addition, as a machine, Ultron sees the world completely different from that of humans.
"Although I was not affected by the rainbows and snails, the situation in the camp as a whole was clearly not very rosy."
Turning his mechanical head to sweep the situation around the camp, Ultron reported to Steve in a visibly heavy tone.
"There are more and more American soldiers who have become snails, but there are fewer and fewer places for them to hide."
As a large number of snails fell from the mutated American soldiers, the entire camp ground was overrun by dense snails.
These snails, which usually seem fragile and do not pose any threat, have now become a nightmare for all American soldiers in the camp, and they have seen many comrades who have inadvertently come into contact with snails, and in the blink of an eye, they have become one of those who have become snails on the ground.
"All the surviving soldiers, listen to my orders and open fire on these snails!"
Surrounded by snails, General Ross and the few soldiers who were not touched by the rainbow retreated, and soon retreated to the position of the Patriot chariot, and there was no way to retreat.
Feeling the icy hard touch from the Patriot chariot behind him, General Ross took a deep breath and looked at the snails in front of him, he even saw a familiar figure among these snails, and his deputy, a Master Chief Lieutenant Colonel, was likewise transformed into a disgusting snail under the influence of the rainbow.
Faced with this scene of crisis, General Ross was about to give the order that he had taken.
"Stop, General Ross!"
On the other side, Steve in front of the shelter let out a loud cry.
Captain America swung his shield and made an arc in the air, cutting off a soldier next to General Ross who was about to fire, and at the same time, with the help of Sam the Falcon, flew up and landed on top of the Patriot chariot.
"Most of these snails were transformed by soldiers who came into contact with rainbows, and since they have become snails, there must be a way to change them back."
"Even if they were originally American soldiers and warriors, they have now become some complete monsters."
Compared to Steve's performance, General Ross himself is much more ruthless.
He looked at the soldiers in front of him, whose faces were completely snailed, and whose eyes were sticking out of their sockets, and a trace of struggle appeared on their faces, but it quickly turned into coldness.
"If they are not eliminated, the remaining American soldiers will be in danger. If even they were 'infected', the entire American army would be wiped out. ”
"No, I'm not going to let you do that, General Ross, and likewise I'm not going to let the American troops ......"
In the face of General Rose's grim stance, Steve clenched his shield and was about to say something.
"Be careful, Captain!"
At this moment, Falcon Sam, who had been staying in the air, noticed that a rainbow was approaching the location of Steve and General Ross at an extremely rapid speed.
Seeing this scene, Sam did not hesitate to wave the metal wings behind his back and rushed towards Captain America on top of the Patriot chariot.
"Whew~ That scene just now is really thrilling!"
Grabbing Steve's shoulders to save him from where the rainbow appeared, Sam looked at the rainbow that appeared among the surviving American soldiers, and the American soldiers who were instantly mutated when touched by the rainbow, and sighed in his mouth with a sigh of relief.
However, the next second.
A brilliant rainbow crossed his body and appeared above the camp.
"What?!"
Looking at the rainbow that pierced his body, the originally happy expression on Sam Falcon froze for a moment.
Immediately afterward, a large number of milky white transparent snail eggs burst open Sam's back, staining the entire metal wings.
