Chapter 21: Peter's Calling
Could Stryker possibly catch Nicole?
The answer, of course, is yes.
Just as Alec didn't trust Nicole, Nicole was also suspicious of Aggreko, and even though the two signed a contract, she never entrusted Alec with her own safety...... In her opinion, even Jean is more credible than Alec, at least Jean's origin is very clear, unlike Alec, who is full of mysteries. Because of her mistrust, she would hide from Alec when she was weak, and it was because of her mistrust that she was unlucky enough to fall into the hands of Stryker.
From the very beginning, Stryker noticed this strange-looking girl.
As the number one enemy of mutants, Stryker knows mutants very well, in addition to the knowledge brought by those bloody dissections, he also knows the history of mutants well, and Nicole's appearance reminds him of a mutant who was once very famous.
Red Devils.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Alec wants to go to Nicole, but his troubles don't stop there.
Peter Parker, who was far away in New York, was also in trouble, the vigilante
Alec hesitated and decided to put Nicole's problem aside and go back to New York to help Peter - unlike Nicole, Peter had a strong personality and would not have turned to him for help unless he had to. Leave Nicole's questions to Jean, anyway, they are already planning to trouble Stryker, and by the way, it is not difficult to rescue the troublesome little Nizi.
What worries him even more is actually the situation on Peter's side
At this point in time, what is going on in New York that makes Spider-Man so helpless that he has to turn to him for help?
The Mutant Academy wasn't far from New York, and instead of using the space power that came with the contract, Alec chose to take a taxi. Although it would take more time to do so, it saved soul coins and gave him time to observe the situation. So far, Alec's development can be said to be smooth, but only he knows how dangerous his situation really is - even if he has been careful, the shadow of the lower planes has always been in his heart.
At this time, New York seemed to be in a lot of depression, there were few pedestrians on the road, and even most of the shops on the street were closed.
In the spring, this is almost impossible to see.
Alec's bad premonition became more and more obvious, and when he contacted Spider-Man's request for help, he vaguely realized that he was afraid that he was going to be in big trouble.
Soon, the two soon met.
Peter was wounded.
When Alec saw him, he was lying in bed recuperating from his injuries. What is interesting is that one of his arms is in a plaster cast, and he keeps exuding cold. The chill hindered wound healing and turned Spider-Man into a sick man who couldn't get out of bed, and what chilled Alec the most was the fluctuation of the spell.
There are people in Marvel who are good at using ice, but no one can master ice spells.
Spells need a complete system of support, even if it is a simple burst fireball, it also needs to master the knowledge of more than a dozen aspects such as "Fire Spell Construction", "Explosive Energy Control", "Spell Flight", "Coordinate Lock", "Remote Spell Detonation", etc., in order to successfully use the burst fireball, it also needs the support of expertise such as fire control, spell construction, and fire spell mastery, which is by no means a condition that people in the Marvel world can achieve.
Outsiders!
Alec's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
It seems that those guys in hell are moving far faster than they imagined.
Alec held down Peter's wound, and the scorching spell energy continued to pour into Peter's arm, a process that lasted for more than ten minutes before the cold on Peter's arm began to weaken. The continuous energy output made him very tired, and after resting for more than ten minutes, he mobilized his energy again, completely eliminated the cold, and treated the wound.
"Thank you."
"Peter, where is the person who hurt you?"
Peter frowned: "It's not humans who hurt me, it's ...... Forget it, it's heading in the direction of Stark Tower, and if you go over now, you'll see the monster in no time. β
Alec got up to leave.
Peter thought for a moment, rubbed himself out of bed, and said, "Alec, I'll go with you!" β
Alec was surprised: "You have become a one-armed hero, and you still want to go out to find trouble?" β
Peter's face darkened: "Bastard! I'm just going to show you the way......"
Alec looked disdainful: "It's not that I haven't been to New York, so I need you to lead the way?" Can't I even find Stark Tower? β
Peter was furious: "The dog bites Lu Dongbin, you don't know the hearts of good people? β
Alec rolled his eyes, then pressed on someone's wound, and the screams of the little spider immediately came out from afar: "The wounded soldier must have the appearance of a wounded soldier, you are in a hurry to die with this look?" β
Peter was half furious and lay back on the bed.
Alec then turned and left, heading towards Stark Tower.
Frost gradually began to appear on the streets, and it was a warm spring, but there was a biting cold wind blowing in the air from time to time. Alec walked down the street, where the signs of battle began to appearβa frozen tank, a few shells that didn't explode, a broken pole, and a few chilling scratches.
He already understood what he was about to face.
It's an ice demon.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Not all parts of Hell are filled with flames, and the Ice Demon is one of the very different creatures that have been born on the edge of Hell, the area known to the devils as the "Cold Land".
Strictly speaking, the Ice Demon is not the devil, but their close relative.
Demon.
The main difference between the devil and the devil is wisdom.
The devil is a group of people with high intelligence, and even the lowest devil has complete thoughts and wisdom. But demons are different, they are chaotic and crazy beings, and many demons have not been able to give birth to wisdom even in their medium form. Killing and destruction are the only thoughts on the minds of these demons, which makes them the best cannon fodder in hell and the best slaves in the hearts of the devils.
Aggreko, is no exception.
Having an ice demon will greatly enhance his strength.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Stark Tower downstairs.
Hundreds of soldiers armed with weapons, more than a dozen main battle tanks, and six helicopters all gathered here, but such a huge military force could not stop the progress of the ice demons.
They were faced with a very embarrassing situation.
Whether it's a tank shell or a helicopter missile, it's frozen into ice before it hits the Ice Demon. The cannonball cannot explode, and the lethality it can exert is very limited, especially the headache is that this ice demon, who has reached the middle rank, has also awakened some defensive spells...... The huge ice shields on all sides hung in the air, and all the shells were blocked by the ice shields, and they could not hurt the ice demon for half a point. As for firearms, ordinary firearms don't do anything, only large-caliber sniper rifles can tickle the rough-skinned Ice Devil.
This army just watched the Ice Demon advance, neither attacking nor not attacking.
The fragility of a modern army is laid bare at this moment.
