Chapter Ninety-Six: The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the dark
The punisher didn't know what state he was in now, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything when he opened his mouth, and his brain, which had been thinking clearly, was like clockwork stuck to glue at this time, unable to think at all, and the whole person was stuck in the quagmire and couldn't extricate himself.
Similarly, the Punisher didn't notice that the palm of his hand holding the gun was trembling slightly, as if he was trying to break free of something, but the 'cobwebs' tightly wrapped around his body made his resistance only sink deeper and deeper.
What's more, his rebellion can even arouse the awareness of certain beings.
"So what should we do now, something so serious has happened, we have to inform the others, Captain America has ordered some heroes to gather and not go alone, but now, I am afraid it is even more dangerous to let the heroes gather." The Punisher muttered.
"It's useless, we can't be sure how many heroes have been contaminated, we can't even be sure what the source of the contamination is, if the other party is doing something in the timeline, then all our actions will be detected by the enemy, they have already polluted everyone before we even found out."
The Moon Knight's face was also very bad, even if his face was hidden under the mask, but the emotions he showed seemed to be extremely depressed at this time.
"What's more, that thing has been integrated into some people's minds, replacing their original identity, and the person we trusted before may no longer be the 'he' we know it to be."
"Horse-mounted, is it another battle similar to the Skrull invasion!?" The Punisher cursed in a low voice, and the three people present understood that this time their opponent was more terrifying than a secret invasion.
"If it's polluting the timeline, is it possible to Kang?" The Moon Knight suddenly thought of something and spoke.
"We had doubts about the Fantastic Four when we were examining the scene of his death, but if it was Kang, he might have enough ability to collect some powerful artifacts to taint history, and throwing Deadpool as a pawn to attract our attention is also very similar to Kang's handiwork."
Indeed, Kang the Conqueror, a time traveler, has gradually become a non-linear flow of life, and each of his invasions creates different variants in the timeline, which also makes his existence difficult to record by heroes.
"It's not very likely, regardless of whether Kang is still so powerful or not, his variant has indeed done similar things in the past, such as stealing Kongsu's artifact and then fighting the Moon Knights of various timelines, but as far as I know, Kang has left this dimension."
After a pause, Zhang Yu said seriously. "Besides, if that thing can affect your cognition, then it will naturally make you ignore its existence, since you still remember the existence of 'Kang', it will naturally not be him."
"It makes sense, Kang wouldn't leave such a big flaw, but why weren't you affected by that thing?"
The Moon Knight looked up at Zhang Wei, who was hiding under the beak mask, as if trying to see through his eyes.
And Zhang Yu just looked at him silently, and then slowly spoke.
"Because I am not from this universe, as I said before, I am a traveler from other worlds, and my goal is only to save your world from destruction."
"Do you have a plan?" Moon Knight asked.
"It's hard to say yet, I don't think that thing comes from your universe, the other party should be an invader from other universes like me, just like Dormammu, but that thing's ability is much more terrifying than Dormammu." Zhang Yu replied silently.
If the world of the Marvel Universe is described as a sandbox, then there must be an 'upper narrator' who is above everything else, and the upper narrator has absolute control over the lower narrative, and has the means to arbitrarily tamper with any element of the lower affairs.
But from Zhang Yu's macro point of view, for this sandbox universe, any existence outside the sandbox is the so-called 'upper-level narrator', including Zhang Yu himself, any existence that does not belong to the Marvel Universe will cause huge pollution.
"So how are we going to face an enemy we've never been in contact with, not to mention the fact that we don't know the identity of the other party." The Punisher couldn't help but speak.
"Well," Zhang Yu sneered. "Maybe it's because that thing didn't expect me to come, or maybe it's because I'm a special person, that thing didn't affect me, and didn't even notice me."
So the enemy is in the dark, and I am in the dark, what are you afraid of?"
Zhang's words silenced the Moon Knight and the Punisher.
The eyes gradually condensed, the noise in their hearts gradually subsided, and the two slowly sobered up.
Yes, what if the enemy is in the dark, it's not that there is no backup on his side.
"So what should we do next?" The Punisher clenched his fists and asked impatiently.
"Split up." Zhang Yu did not hesitate, and quickly said his arrangement. "Punisher, you go to Doctor Strange, he obviously knows more about things in other dimensions, his position is very important, but this trip is also dangerous, I can't guarantee if Doctor Strange is also in a state of mental pollution."
The Punisher grinned. "It doesn't matter, if I don't come back in two days, you will treat me as dead, and it is much better to die on the road of resistance than to die in vain, but you also remember that if I don't look for you but contact you in other ways, don't believe it, it's not me."
Zhang Yu and the Moon Knight looked at the Punisher solemnly and nodded seriously.
As a literal ordinary person, the Punisher has reached one of the most powerful levels of humanity, and is able to take on a dangerous task, and it can be seen that he has long put his personal life and death on the line.
After a moment, Zhang Yu looked at the Moon Knight again and continued.
"You come with me, I have a badly injured person here, I suspect she may have a clue to that thing, but she is in a bad condition, and the divine power you have may be able to save her."
"Okay, who's the wounded?" The Moon Knight didn't refuse.
"I'm not sure, it's a superhero who survived Deadpool, she's an alien, and I need you to confirm her identity." Zhang Yu explained casually.
Moon Knight nodded, but he quickly spoke again. "What about Deadpool, if you don't deal with him, Jessica and them will be in danger."
"Don't worry." Zhang Yu smiled slightly. "I've got my own arrangements with Deadpool."
