Chapter 141: Extraordinary Events

When Wanda and Gwen arrived at the abandoned port, it was nearly ten o'clock in the evening.

It was dark and silent on the docks, except for the faint sound of the wind and water, which sounded like some kind of ghost was screaming. It was not long before they found the scars of a fierce battle. Two containers were knocked to the ground, and the shells of several other boxes collapsed. There was a pile of crate debris of wooden crates on the ground, and a huge fist pit, surrounded by web-like cracks.

One can imagine how strong the force was to cause such a series of destruction.

There was a trace of dried blood on the wood slag. Wanda put down the bag in her hand, crouched down, and stretched out her five fingers to lightly place on the bloodstain. After a long period of development training with Michael, her understanding of chaos magic has become more and more promising, and her abilities have become more and more diverse. Now she's not only able to apply chaos magic to combat or mind reading, but she's also expanded it to something that can be used to retrace sense.

For example, taking the current situation as an example, through the traces of the battle in this place, the breath left by the participants, and the faint fluctuations of black magic that she does not know the source, her chaotic magic can integrate it all, and combine these details to try to restore the scene and the specific process of the incident.

But the attempt did not go very well. She felt as if her magic was blocked by something, everything she sensed was like a dark curtain, everything that had happened here, everyone who had appeared was shrouded behind this curtain, all she could sense was breath but she couldn't see who was here.

But what she could be sure of was that there was something very evil on both sides of the war. Based on the vague feeling, she felt that the thing might not be a person, but closer to some kind of ferocious monster. It is brutal, ruthless, has no guidelines, and is extremely dangerous.

In other words, it is likely that this incident has become the scope of their work as super agents of the Skysword Paranormal Operation Team.

"Sister." Gwen suddenly called out to her. Wanda turned around to see Gwen standing on the edge of a large blue shipping container waving at her.

Wanda walked over and quickly understood why Gwen called her.

The word is clearly written on the shell of the container, Paso Technology.

"What's inside," she asked.

"I don't know." Gwen shook her head and pointed to the door that had been torn out by brute force. The box was empty, there was nothing.

Wanda walked to the door, closed her eyes slightly, and stretched out her hand to slowly release the chaos magic to try to sense. But a stronger resistance than the outside stopped her from probing, and the dark magic in this box was so thick that it blocked her vision like black smoke from the scene of a fire, and she couldn't see anything.

Gwen cast her an inquiring look.

Wanda shook her head slightly: "The black magic shield is too serious, I can't feel anything." But I think maybe we should inform Mr. El Paso. ”

Michael's private laboratory.

"Wanda." Michael asked Shirley to pick up the line and turned on the hands-free mode.

"Mr. Paso, I know it's late, but I think there's something here you might want to know."

"How"

"Gwen and I are now on an abandoned dock in Manhattan." Wanda said, "We believe there must have been a fierce fight here not long ago, and from the traces of the scene, I think it should be a 'unconventional' fight." In addition, I also sensed some kind of dark magic fluctuation in this place that I was unfamiliar with, and although the remnant was not strong, I could feel a very evil energy. ”

Michael opened his eyes: "What did you find"

"Well, a blue box, container, very big. It says 'Paso Tech' and I think that's your stuff"

"What's in there?"

"Nothing, empty." Wanda said, "I tried to use my abilities to find out where the contents had gone, but there was a lot of dark magic interference in the box, and I couldn't see anything. ”

"Thanks for the debriefing, Wanda. I know the situation. ”

"Is there anything else we need to do, Mr. Paso, maybe we can investigate the ins and outs of this matter or help you recover what's important in that box, right?"

"No need. I've got someone to deal with it. Michael said flatly, "Thank you for your concern, you and Gwen should both rest early." Also, have a great weekend. ”

Wanda took off her headset. Gwen asked, "What did he say?"

"Just say he knows, let's not worry about it." Wanda shrugged, "He doesn't sound like he's particularly concerned." ”

Jessica Jones thought she might have been awakened by the freezing cold of the river. When she woke up, she had been washed ashore by the current, and she was soaked inside and out.

She struggled to climb ashore, away from the icy water, and laboriously rolled over, lying on her back on the ground panting. Her hands and feet were cold, and her black hair was as wet as seaweed. But she was still in severe pain, especially in her lower back and abdomen, and she thought she might have broken a rib or two.

But on the best side, if it were a normal human, she would have died after being tossed like this, but fortunately she is not a normal human, and she recovered quickly.

It was exciting to think about tonight's experience, even in all the bizarre events she's been through. The mission begins with the search for Mr. Landlord's missing nephew, then the smugglers, then the Paso Syndicate, and then she is unlucky to find out that Mr. Landlord's nephew is suspected to be an enhancer.

And then after she finally found the nephew of the landlord and subdued him, the last thing that came out as the boss of the guard was the big black guy just now, the monster who claimed to be "Venom".

What a hell of a thing. Now, as soon as Jessica closes her eyes, she can clearly see what the venom looks like. The hideous white eyes, the sharp fangs, the long tongue, and the bad breath that almost killed people.

I'm sure I'm going to have nightmares when I go back at night.

Maybe it's time for her to let it go. The case had become too weird, so weird that it went far beyond the scope of "recovering the missing teenager", and the commission money plus a month's rent money didn't seem to be worth the risk for her to continue to take the risk.

But the few people who know Jessica Jones will know that she's not going to let it go.

Because even though she always behaves scathingly and obnoxious, pretending to be indifferent to everyone and everything, deep down she is a nosy guy by nature. She acts like she is troublesome about everything and refuses to help anyone, but she just can't stand by and watch the people and things she has seen.

After a short break, Jessica sat up and wrung a large handful of water out of her wet black hair.

Fortunately, it wasn't for nothing tonight. Although the process was a little crazy, she did find the next clue. AXCR-3920, the number printed on the cube case.

She didn't know what that number meant, but she believed she might be able to find out within Paso.
