Chapter 86: (Former) Psychiatric Hospital

Creedmore Asylum is located in Queens, but it has been abandoned for more than three decades, and in the intervening time the asylum has become a tourist attraction. Three weeks ago, there was a major accident worthy of a natural disaster, and an unknown powerhouse fought a war here that resembled a small nuclear explosion. Until now, half of Queens is in an abandoned state, the cleanup of the site is still being completed, and the place has become somewhat desolate.

Halfway through the taxi they couldn't go any further, and the driver showed them the way ahead. The two had to get out of the car and move forward, and at the front of the road, half of the collapsed buildings blocked the middle.

"Tut-tut...... It's like you've stepped back in time to a disaster movie. Su Jing looked at a tall skyscraper in front of him, about the thirtieth to the thirty-seventh floor, with an irregular round hole in the middle. It's like being pierced through it by some huge kinetic weapon, or ...... was stabbed through with a sword qi from a distance......

"Do you have a better feeling for monster movies?" Xing Batian asked, "Godzilla, Pacific Rim?" ”

"Godzilla, the American remake, I also bought a disc and watched it many times at home." Su Jing seemed to think it was a little funny, "Let Renault also make that kind of film...... It's funny. ”

"George Clooney also made "Batman and Robin", which has been called 'the worst film to be put on the screen', and the worst movie of the era ranked first, with three times more votes than the second place."

Su Jing recalled for a moment and said, "It's the one where Schwarzenegger plays the frozen man...... Oh my God, I thought it was pretty good when I was a kid......"

"That is, children will think it looks good, and the classification should be children's movies. The first time I heard that there will be ** settings on Batman's suit, as well as operatic lines......"

"No, it's a stage play, I think."

The Creedmore Mental Hospital is in a relatively remote area, and even with a taxi driver to guide them, it took them a while to find the gate. Along the way, they saw a number of people cleaning up the site, and some time after the disaster, many superhero organizations were involved in the rescue and helping to clean up the rubble. With the help of various high-tech biometric search tools, all the surviving people buried under the rubble were quickly searched and rescued. Most of the people still working here are clearing the rubble with heavy equipment such as forklifts and cranes.

Push open the carved iron fence gate and you can see the main building of this mental hospital. Because it is a little far away from the place where the incident occurred, it is fortunate that it was not affected, and the management here does not know where the road has gone, probably for fear of a few more wars between the strong and the strong here. The outside of the building was covered with ivy, and a third of the windows were in tatters. It can be seen that when it was visited as a scenic spot before, it deliberately created a shabby and old feeling.

Su Jing walked in front and released his own demon hunting insect as a precursor to the investigation, and changed several reconnaissance interfaces in succession.

"Be careful, some surveillance cameras are still working."

In order to avoid alarming the people inside, the two carefully avoided the area filmed by the surveillance camera, and Su Jing punched a hole in the wall, allowing the demon hunting insects to probe all the way inside along the line of the monitor.

“…… Looks like there's a dungeon underneath this mental hospital......"

Following the path that Su Jing had detected remotely with demon hunting insects, Xing Batian found an iron door leading to the underground, and although the lock on it was an old-style iron lock, it was a new one. Xing Batian originally wanted to blast it directly with his fist, but Su Jing waved his hand, stretched out his palm, and cut a circle along the door frame of the iron door, and the green corrosive mist rose one after another, making Xing Batian's eyes narrow.

Although the erosion of the corrosive element was strong, it took Su Jing more than half a minute to cut off the connecting shaft of this door, and then eroded two holes in the door, signaling Xing Batian to move the door open.

"Your ability, it's not good to fight hard head-on, but there are a lot of tricks in this kind of small place......" Xing Batian easily lifted the iron door and put it aside.

Su Jing stood there with his hands folded and sneered: "This is why I am standing here and watching, and you are in charge of manual labor." ”

"Typical science and technology joint thinking, this is for what we have only three ten-star powerhouses in our red force, and you have five, but you have always been pressed and beaten by us. Too opportunistic to ever reach the highest level. I think you're actually quite talented, so you might as well switch to our Crimson Force. Xing Batian scoffed.

"It's funny, it's as if Crimson Force has really defeated the technology alliance!" Su Jing spread his hands and furrowed his eyebrows.

Xing Batian turned to face him, crossed his waist and said, "Please note when you say such provocative remarks, Mr. Su, a three-star techno-side adventurer, you are only half a meter away from me now, and I, as a four-star dual-line adventurer with ability and force, will only take less than thirty seconds to kill you." Don't think I gave it my all last time, I didn't play hard at all. ”

"Hehe, this friend on the force side, do you know what the ultimate move on the science side is? I can show you what a 'self-destruct' is today...... I'm here to vouch for it, and as long as I detonate all the nuclear batteries on my body, it's still easy to turn this neighborhood into a white field......"

Su Jing showed a relaxed and fearless smile, he bet that the martial arts maniac in front of him couldn't understand how difficult it was to turn a nuclear battery into a nuclear bomb - to be precise, it was basically impossible with his current ability.

The two held hands together until a woman's voice came from inside the basement.

[Two uninvited visitors...... Please come in. 】

Is it too loud to speak...... Su Jing rubbed the corners of his forehead with his fingers and walked into the ground with Xing Batian.

After turning a corner, the two walked into an aisle. This place used to look like an underground prison, and with the help of night vision, Su Jing could see all kinds of shackles on the wall, but the iron door that was once used for imprisonment now looks like most of it has decayed, and some rooms have no doors directly.

In this strange environment, Xing Batian began to transport the protective strength of the uranium crystal battle body, and for this cultivator on the force side, night vision was just a piece of cake.

You disturb the darkness of the great Selene, and this will surely bring you retribution......

"Pretending to be a ghost." Xing Batian commented.

Su Jing was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I seem to have a little impression of this name...... It should be related to the characters we met before...... But I'm not sure who it is...... All right! Dear Miss Selene, when did you discover us? ”

[Hmph...... Let's start by talking about your respective combat strengths......]

"Look, it's all your fault!!"

"No, it's obvious that you started it."

"What's the point of me taking so much effort to remove that door silently?!"

"It doesn't make sense in the first place, and it's the same result for me to knock down that door to enter, which only proves that there is a big problem with your intelligence at all."

[Enough! You two lowly and noisy ants! Let the great Selene bring you into her gladiatorial arena! 】

Both of them have the ability to see in the dark, so they have always had no fear until then, but at this moment, in the dark corridor, a deeper darkness is coming to the two of them.

"Damn...... I remember, this is the Black Queen of the Hellfire Club! The abilities are magic, mind control, movement in shadow form, and...... Absorb the life force!! ”

Xing Batian instantly made his body steel, and at the same time raised the power of the uranium crystal battle body to his peak, and the steel of his body revealed a faint light from the inside out, preventing the darkness from invading him. Su Jing took back the demon hunting insect for the first time, and the flame elementalized in an instant, and the whole body lit up with dazzling firelight.

"No—she can control the flames! Take it back!! ”

Su Jing habitually thought that the light brought by the flames could expel the darkness, but his lack of understanding of the enemy's information made him suffer a small loss as soon as he saw it, and the fire on the surface of his body counterattacked him in an instant, but fortunately he reacted quickly, withdrew the elementalization, and then immediately put on the Hellfire power armor, so it was only a part of the skin that was slightly burned.

"First of all, don't give her a chance to touch your skin, don't let her be able to touch you physically. Second, in her Shadow form, she is immune to most physical damage, so if you know how to spell, hurry up! "Xing Batian has a uranium light body, which can protect herself for the time being, "She can also inject life energy into inorganic matter, and change their form, making them turn into half-creatures to attack you......"

"Damn it - life absorption, magic, fire control, transfer of life energy...... Is there anything else she wouldn't have?! Su Jing scolded.

"Also, she has strong psionic powers." Xing Batian added.

"Can you still play this game!?"
