Chapter 7: The Devil in Hell's Kitchen (Revision)
A month later.
After a busy day, classes, tutoring, and helping out at Uncle Fang's restaurant, Luo Yang was very tired.
Luo Yang stepped down from the apartment building, ready to go around the surrounding streets as usual.
Walking in New York at night is quite an amazing experience.
For more than a month, Luo Yang has gone out for night walks after 10 o'clock at least a dozen times, and he has not encountered anything new.
There are far fewer pedestrians and cars on the road. The few gangsters roam the night, the homeless look out in the streets, the girls dressed up in the guzzes run to the clubs and bars, and the busy American overtime dogs walk home tiredly.
Before the crossing, Luo Yang liked this feeling of walking alone on the streets. Being in the exotic metropolis of New York, Royan is also looking for the feeling he once had.
Across two blocks, three or four hooded figures followed behind a middle-aged Chinese man, his hands in his trouser pockets, sneaking in his footsteps......
This made Luo Yang feel bad!
In fact, in his own heart, he is not only looking forward to the opportunity to become a vigilante. The strength that has been practiced for more than a year, as well as the mage skills that he has recently cultivated, have long been eager to try, but he has never been in actual combat. He's like a gamer who's been training in-house for a long time, eager to play PK.
Luo Yang followed behind him while confirming his current status.
Skill Module: Mage. Abilities that can be used: [Ice Arrow], [Ice Protector], [Arcane Impact].
[Arcane Impact] has just started training, and its proficiency is only 70%, and it has not yet reached the proficiency level to be able to fight. As for the [Prismatic Barrier] that resists magical damage, it was abandoned by Luo Yang, and in the Marvel world, physical defense is far more important than magical defense! Encounter a law or energy enemy on the streets? Luo Yang felt that he was not so lucky.
In Luo Yang's sight, the middle-aged Chinese man not far away realized the danger, but he was forced into a dead end by these four hooded men.
Luo Yang stood in the distance, observing the next move of the four men.
The middle-aged Chinese man stood in front of him with a briefcase and shouted, "I don't have much money on me..... I.... All to you! ”
One of the hooded men at the head smiled and said, "Take it." ”
The middle-aged Chinese man flipped through his briefcase in a panic, and he couldn't find his money for a while.
Those hooded men didn't have much patience, so they picked up bricks and garbage from the ground and began to smash at the middle-aged man again and again!
Royan is not unaware of this underlying status quo in the United States. In fact, Chinese Americans in the United States are often the target of extortion and robbery. The elderly Chinese have always taken it as the standard of life to sail carefully on a ship of ten thousand years, and their obedience and tolerance have also made those and gangsters more and more arrogant!
Luo Yang stepped out of the shadows, and his hands tried to use secret energy to condense the spell form!
The secret energy prepared in the body responded to Luo Yang's urge, and a layer of ice protection quietly formed on the surface of Luo Yang's body, and in Luo Yang's left hand, an ice element ball transformed from secret energy appeared!!
The four hooded men heard footsteps and turned around. Royan could also see their faces, two blacks, while the other two brown-skinned ones looked like Mexicans.
The ice ball in Luo Yang's hand that was rubbed by the ice arrow spell had already shocked the other party!
The first strike was strong, and Luo Yang directly shot a cold ice arrow at the black man who was the leader!
The black gangster, who was still holding a short stick in his hand, was caught off guard by shock, and the cold arrow was in the middle of his shoulder, only to feel that his shoulder was pierced, and then starting from his shoulder, his upper body instantly froze, and he fell unconscious!
Immediately after that, Luo Yang aimed at another black man, who was not frightened, and pounced with a short knife.
Luo Yang couldn't release the ice arrows continuously, he stepped back, dodging the black man's attack, but Luo Yang's observation was not comprehensive enough, and another young man of Mexican origin, also holding a short knife, stabbed Luo Yang directly from the other side!
By the time Royan reacted, the knife of the young Mexican had already stabbed him!
But the knife seemed to have slashed at the surface of a piece of ice, and there was only a dull echo, and it didn't pierce Luo Yang's arm!
The shield of the Ice Protector protects Royan! Fortunately, there is this shield, otherwise Luo Yang would have been pierced through his arm!
Luo Yang's left hand once again condensed into an ice arrow, which plunged into the leg of the young Mexican, causing the other party to cry out in pain.
There were also two hooded men who didn't dare to move anymore, and remained motionless in place, as if they were cicadas.
They muttered softly, "Death, is this a mutant?" ”
Looking at the two hooded men who fell to the ground, Luo Yang realized: reality is always more unexpected and cruel, Luo Yang didn't expect their attack methods at all, and the performance of this street gangster has exceeded the virtual effect of Believer No. 7.
Even training with weakened versions of Illidan and Diablo does not guarantee that Royan's fighting skills are foolproof.
There is only one life in reality, so Luo Yang must be vigilant.
Fortunately, I have the card of [Ice Protector], and the defense of the ice method is still too important, and the cards such as [Ice Barrier] and [Flash] must be required!
Luo Yang held the ice thorn in his hand and glanced at the remaining two hooded men, contemplating what he was going to say next.
"Get out of here, uncle. Here...."
Luo Yang froze halfway through his words.
The hooded man standing in front of him, I don't know when, took out a pistol, and pointed at Luo Yang with a sneer.
Can the Ice Protector hold off bullets? At least Luo Yang was a little apprehensive in his heart: if he didn't open the refrigerator, how could he resist such a close bullet!
It's too late, it's too fast, the other party has already shot!
At the moment when the gun was fired, a black object suddenly flew in and hit the arm of the gun bearer!
That shot was deflected and didn't hit Royan!
In an instant, another black shadow flashed, a sturdy man in a dark red bodysuit, extremely fast, this vigilante-like hero, three punches and two kicks to solve the remaining two hooded men.
He turned around and looked at Royan.
In addition to his trademark dark red bodysuit, he has two demons-like horns on his helmet, and his weapon is the same baton that hit the pistol!
Isn't this hero Daredevil?
Royan remembers the famous anti-hero. Matthew. Murdoch, who lost his sight in both eyes when he was a child, gained far more than ordinary senses, and used other senses to compensate for the visual defects. Plus the stick and fighting techniques that you learned the day after tomorrow. Matt is a lawyer during the day, and at night he puts on a mask and fights crime on the streets of New York (Hell's Kitchen).
Daredevil, the fearless.
Luo Yang felt that the name Daredevil was indeed more appropriate than Daring, and Daredevil was so vulgar that this kind of messy translation seemed to be made for the sake of gimmicks.
Although Daredevil hasn't reported himself yet, Royan already knows it.
Daredevil told the middle-aged Chinese man to leave the place, then gestured to Luo Yang and stepped out of the dead end.
Royan followed Daredevil until the two came to an empty construction site.
It was dark, and only the foundations of the building were visible on the site, and no one else was there.
