In the white snow, under the bright moonlight.

More than fifty pale gold bone arrows suspended in mid-air, about 80 centimeters long, with spiraling black tail feathers, the yellow-white light outlined a row of arrow-like runes that were prismatic as a whole and had sharp barbs on the tail, and hundreds of points of light were scattered around the runes, and at a glance, they rotated unpredictably like nebulae, attracting the starlight sprinkled in the sky, accumulating amazing destructive power.

Dean stretched out his hand and gently tucked the fifty star arrows into his knees, his eyes showing joy.

It's been a week since the nuclear explosion, and there is no threat of the Potala Spider-Man who turned the world upside down.

Dean removes some of his bones and other biological materials every day, and builds supernatural weapons day and night.

These fifty Star Arrows are one of the results, the Snake of Power has been strengthened in the last event settlement reward, the Sea of Stars skill effect has been enhanced, and with the Red Dragon Meditation, the Orion Star Rune observed by Dean is more detailed, and the power of the Star Arrow has been slightly increased due to its own level 5 supernatural materials, and the time to accumulate starlight has been shortened from ten days and a half months to one week.

Now that Dean is once again facing the true body of the Potala Spider-Man, there is no need for a nuclear bomb, and these fifty star arrows pouring out of the nest are enough to severely damage the opponent.

Even if Dean himself faced the attack of this storm of arrows, he could only drink hatred.

Dean put away the killer feature.

Thoughts flow.

A row of dark golden spears, hand axes, and throwing knives flew out of the void in front of him, totaling more than thirty, and as the swarms of swordfish with telekinesis flickered through the air, the cold light flickered, making a hissing sound that cut through the air.

One of them, a fanged long knife and a recurve bow, lined up at the front and end of the procession, like the leader of a school of fish.

These weapons that Dean had been polishing and maintaining for half a year were all added to his own bones and re-smelted, greatly increasing their sharpness and toughness, and had the effect of breaking the energy barrier, each of which could cause damage to level 5 supernatural creatures when used properly.

The infinite weapon storm that Dean once envisioned has a small prototype...

He forged more than just offensive weapons.

Dark brown clothes flew out of the space - scale armor made of hand tendons, skin, and the scales of fantasy snake scale armor, helmets, face guards, hand guards, knee pads, shin guards...

Close-fitting, warm, with natural and smooth texture and texture, covering every part of the body, easily resisting more than 40 tons of blows, and also has excellent resistance to flames, frost, electricity, nuclear radiation and other energy impacts.

Wearing them, Dean's defense took to the next level.

Of course, most of the time, the Life Shield alone is enough to cope with the battle perfectly.

Dean admired the results of the week by the moonlight, rubbing his fingers over every weapon and armor, instilling life energy, mental power, and thoughts, patiently and meticulously maintaining them, all of which were stored in the fantasy space.

It is worth mentioning that at this stage, in addition to blood and soul · The M1900, a few grenades, and an MP5 with a speed of several hundred rounds per second used with the Perception Suppression feature, other modern weapons that are not as powerful and applicable as the supernatural weapons forged by Dean himself, have been cleaned up.

Finish your equipment.

Dean stood up and transformed into the appearance of Seth, the snake demon, and waved the black nails like an awl on the five fingers of his right hand, and gently swiped at the towering ancient tree next to him.

The rough bark cracked with a claw mark.

The area near the claw marks seemed to be infected by the force of the plague, and the ashes were visibly lost to the naked eye, and this strange force spread up and down along the claw marks, and in a second, large pieces of pine needles protected by the waxy layer of snow also turned yellow and withered to the ground.

And a stream of heat poured into Dean's body, quickly replenishing the energy he had consumed before.

"Well, the predatory power of the Potala spider people, not only animals, but also plants. I no longer have to kill my targets to drain life force, as long as my minions touch them, I can keep plundering... Well, it enhances its own endurance in disguise. ”

"It's overbearing."

The snake demon Dean casually pulled open a spatial node in front of him and jumped in.

The next second-

He went from the moonlit snow to the dark, gloomy world of upside down.

After the explosion, countless radioactive fallouts floated in the air, some of which drifted miles into the air, enveloping everything in a dim red light.

In the midst of it, terrifying energy waves erode Dean's body all the time, damaging his blood, immunity, nervous system...

But it is firmly blocked by the life shield.

Dean looked at the higher hills ahead, flattening them, and at the center of the explosion appeared a huge circular crater with a diameter of more than a kilometer, like a meteorite hitting the earth, and the walls were radioactively tilted.

The earth was burned by the flames, and the soil melted into scorched earth, producing a large field of beautiful crystals,

His nose moved.

There was a suffocating, dull smell in the air, emitted by the heat of the scorched earth and the irradiated air.

Ten kilometers around the nuclear explosion site, even more dead and dead than when the Potala spider was still there, extinct and lifeless.

And now, Dean is the only living creature and ruler of the land.

With spatial coordinates, he can enter and exit the upside-down world anytime and anywhere, borrowing nuclear radiation to hone his life energy without worrying about being detected by satellites in space.

He spread his dark snake wings and flew up fifteen kilometers in the air like lightning, flew out of the atmosphere, looked at the wonderful cosmic starry sky beyond the radiation dust, and took a closer look at "Orion".

Well, Orion can be seen in the upside-down world, but it is seen from a different angle, which brings more enlightenment to Dean.

Look down.

Look beyond the area of Hawkinstown, where the nuclear explosion occurred, and look farther to the southeast, northwest, and north.

It is surprisingly barren and barren, and even the ocean is a dead black.

Other spider-men occupy the rest of the Upside Down world.

Dean withdrew his gaze in fear.

Breathe deeply.

But outside the atmosphere, he can't breathe and his chest is sluggish.

Di An's head moved, allowing Ying to use his telekinesis to fix himself high in the air.

Then for the first time, he launched the snake demon's own "hibernation" skill, and his closed wings wrapped around his body like a leather blanket, and a layer of bright yellow fetal membrane grew on the outside of the blanket, lining him like a snake egg in space.

In the fetal membranes, Dean felt that the previous suffocation and discomfort disappeared, and the fetal membranes spontaneously absorbed the cosmic radiation free in space and converted into physical energy and energy.

Let him survive for a long time.

"The Phantom Snake is worthy of being a starry sky race, and its hibernation ability actually allows me to survive in space without oxygen."

"And so on, even in the deep sea, I have a certain ability to protect myself."

……

After stargazing from space and experiencing space hibernation, Dean descended to the ground.

Drilling into the cracks in the ground created by the nuclear explosion, listening to the heartbeat of the earth in the darkness, compared to the sorrow of being plundered by the pearl people, is now calm and full of faint joy.

Dean thought of what he had learned in his previous life about the wonderful changes that had taken place after the Chernobyl nuclear leak.

Destruction is followed by new life.

Without the plundering of the Potala spider people and the pollution and destruction of humans, the land corresponding to the town of Hawkins will inevitably be revitalized in ten or decades and become a paradise for animals and plants.

"If other spider-men don't come to plunder again, this world is my kingdom, but there is still a problem." Dean looked at the shallows on his shoulder, "Is there a 'supernatural convergence law' in the upside-down world, will it inexplicably lure other spider-people over?" ”

The shoal shook his head, "Only the Overworld and a few worlds have the Law of Convergence. ”

"So as long as I'm hiding in the upside-down world, there's nothing I can do about the Convergence Law?"

"Yes." The shallows unconsciously revealed a secret, "According to the knowledge I have absorbed, many ancient gods on the earth have now disappeared because they have actively transferred to the world, and some of them have even created a plane to hide into. All of this is also related to the law of convergence. ”

After hearing this, Dean's mood became slightly heavy, and there must be some kind of secret of the world's roots hidden in the convergence law.

Like a whirlpool, it sucks in and shatters all the supernatural creatures around it, even the gods are not spared.

And as his strength progresses, the interlacing with the law of convergence will become more and more frequent.

He shook his head and smiled, "But now, I have at least one way out, and if I can't, I'll escape from the Overworld into the Upside-Down World and hide for a while." ”

Then pull off the node and return to the real world.

……

In the regular exercise, the time quietly transitioned to January 5, 1982.

As we enter January, the weather is getting colder and colder.

Fifty miles east of Hawkins, the land was covered in snow, and the strong cold wind made the roadside woods shiver, and the sparkling pools of the previous days were frozen in ice.

But by the pool, in front of a red two-story villa, there is a hot scene.

A group of people wearing down jackets, tweed coats, and hats of various colors kept moving brand new tables and chairs from DeLorean, Dodge, and Chevrolet cars in the yard... Move into a villa and fill the empty living room, living room, and all kinds of rooms.

Lena stood in front of the porch, shouting and making arrangements, while Tyri sat in her wheelchair next to the doorway, watching her busy friends and family, her sluggish face flushed by the wind and a smile on her lips.

"Hope, move this bed to the first bedroom on the second floor. Wait, are you abusing children? ”

"Let's go, don't underestimate Jane, her strength is much greater than that of the average adult man." Hope lifted the wooden bed into the door, and behind him, Jane easily picked up the other corner of the wooden bed with only her left hand, smiling and waving her right hand in greeting.

One big and one small is like a combination of a bear and a kitten.

Lena pursed her lips and smiled, touched her little head, and looked at another young boy who was carrying two sets of single leather sofas on his shoulders, "Jonathan, I've been back and forth three times, I'm tired, let's go in and have a hot coffee and rest." ”

"It's okay, I'll move it right away." Jonathan nodded shyly and entered the villa.

Paqui, who was spitting white air and picked up a big TV, followed him up the stairs, and a pair of bull's eyes on his rugged face were round, "Let you wait for Kelly to get off work before moving, do you have to make a move early in the morning, and treat us as your own people?" ”

"If you want Kelly to know, then I won't be able to move this month." Lena smiled and tugged at her brother's collar, "I'll comfort her with some food in the evening." ”

……

When Paqui entered the house, Lena saw the two people holding the small glove box at the end of the group, and hurriedly stepped forward to take Catherine's hands to warm them, and carefully brushed the snow off her hat for her, and her expression was as gentle as a mother taking care of her daughter, "It's frozen, go in and roast." ”

Catherine shook her head lightly and smiled sweetly, "It's not cold, yes, I found out that you bought some cured meat, Aronnia bitters, blueberries, and raisins, are you going to make a dried meatloaf?" ”

Lena's eyes lit up, "Do you know our traditional cuisine? ”

"Well, I've been studying for half a month, and I've got a little bit of experience..."Catherine waved her fist, looking ready to show off her skills, "I'll help you out?" ”

"It's so sweet to be so busy at work, and to take time out to study our traditional menu," Lena felt more and more pleasing to the eye the more she looked at Catherine, "she must be an excellent wife in the future." ”

Catherine smiled sheepishly at the compliment, tucked her sideburns under her hat behind her ear, and grabbed Dean's arm beside her.

Dean could only respond with a smirk.

He is so young, his ideal is the sea of stars and the endless world, and he will never fall into the trap of marriage early.

But Catherine is indeed a good social player, and in less than a month, she has coaxed Lena into a heart with a phone call a day, and she has to pat her chest to recognize her future daughter-in-law.

Instead, he felt like a stranger.

The next second, there was a click.

Dean looked down and saw a pit in the lower right corner of the storage compartment in his hand, revealing a half-shattered glass plate.

"What the hell has been going on with you?" Lena rolled her eyes at the commotion and snatched the locker from Dean's hand, "Either break the dishes or accidentally collapse the mattress..."

Dean smiled helplessly.

Recently, the melee attribute has skyrocketed continuously, and the strength is calculated in ten tons and hundreds of tons, which has also brought some special troubles.

Every time he interacts with furniture and electrical appliances and physical contact with ordinary people in his daily life, he must be especially careful to control his strength, for example, like an elephant massaging a mouse.

Of course, because the existence of life energy also enhances Dean's body control in disguise, he will not miss and hurt the other party.

But it's not just the power that goes wrong.

Dean's eyesight, sense of smell, and hearing are extremely keen, and the slightly stronger light, noise, and smell from the outside world affect and interfere with him dozens of times more than ordinary people.

If it weren't for the sensory protection of the mirror shield, this bird-singing and vibrant world would have been full of torment for Dean.

Dean is now struggling to fit into normal human society.

……

While the two women enter the kitchen to prepare lunch, Dean takes a closer look at the "new home", which is designed in a rustic style, with floors and ceiling beams made of natural wood, and warm-toned walls to create a cosy and inviting atmosphere.

The living room has a huge window that allows the area to flood the area with precious winter sunlight.

Overall very good.

With a flick of his fingers, he quietly shoved a ball under the floor as a spatial coordinate.

……

"Although this house is quite magnificent in Shade Town, according to your income, you can choose a better house for Lena, the rich area of the town." Director Hope quietly came to his side with a cup of coffee, having quit smoking since sending Sarah through the Loop Gate.

During this time, he also successfully used the project channel of Git Harrington to wash a million dollars for Dean.

In the next two months, I will be able to wash the rest, and finally get about 3 million.

"It doesn't matter if it's expensive or cheap," Dean shook his head, "as long as Lena feels comfortable." ”

Hope's chubby face was full of emotion, "How come I don't have a filial son like you?" ”

Dean glared at him speechlessly, and then turned to Jane, who was playing with the bone throwing knife he had given him, "But you have a super 'daughter'." ”

Hope smiled and looked at Jane with a rare loving look, "Recently, this little ghost has somehow changed his temperament, completed the subject tasks and the training tasks you assigned on time and in quantity, never complained, and played DND with the four little boys every week and weekends, without making any excessive requests. It's so sensible that I'm not used to it. ”

Dean thought for a moment, it should be his own reprimand in the last Jonathan incident that played a role, "This shows that Jane has begun to grow up and knows how to be considerate of your old father." ”

Hope nodded heavily, his eyes darkened, "It's a pity that I can't fulfill her wish and help her get the identity of a normal person and let her live in the sun." ”

Dean thought for a moment.

……

After chatting with Hope for a while, Dean noticed Jonathan in the living room with a boxy-looking SX-70 pocket-sized camera taking pictures.

"Man, when did you get a new camera?"

Jonathan's face flushed slightly when he heard this, "The previous camera was broken in the upside-down world, and this was given to me by Barbara." ”

Dean quipped, "A token of love? ”

Jonathan took a deep breath and nodded, and under his bangs, his originally somewhat dazed eyes became extremely serious, "I thought a lot when I was trapped in the upside-down world, Nancy was just a sweet dream, and now that I woke up, I should face reality." And Barbara is a real good girl, if I miss such a person who understands me and likes me, I am afraid it will be difficult to meet in this life. ”

Dean patted him on the shoulder, "Cherish it, by the way, if you have time, take a picture for everyone first." ”

Next is in front of one of the walls in the living room.

Dean, Catherine, Lena, Paqui, Hope, Jane and Aunt Mom took a picture together.

The new camera doesn't need to go into the darkroom to wash the photos, press the shutter, and the photos slide out of the exit with a sizzling sound.

The first one was collected by Dean, and he can communicate with his family and friends in the photo through the "dark area of his mind" at any time outside in the future.

And the second Lena kept it, she smiled and admired, her eyes were slightly red and hugged Dean, and the shadow quietly flew behind her and hugged her,

"It's all your credit,"

Dean shook his head and said softly, "You deserve it, Lena, and you'll be better and happier in the future, I promise." ”

"Well, it's a pity that there's one less person in the new home."

Dean said in a deep voice, "I already have a clue, wait patiently, and I will bring the light back." ”

Now that the crisis in Hawkins Town is completely resolved, it's time for him to prepare for the next heavyweight task.

……

After lunch at Lena's new home, Dean, who was only two minutes full, telepathized and summoned Damien and Dr. Sean to the deserted countryside.

"How is the investigation by the higher authorities?"

"Don't worry, master," Dr. Sean said with a smile, "Our statement is basically consistent with the reality, the people sent by the department have not found out about our relationship with the master, and it is estimated that after half a month of investigation, the turmoil in the laboratory will pass." ”

Damien added, "As you commanded, we'll remain on the side of the lab and guard the passage that once existed, lest it reopen. ”

Dean bowed his head and asked instead, "Do you have any special foods for quick recovery in your special operations department?" ”

Dean is an ordinary person on the outside, but the spiritual power and life energy in his body are as vast as the sea, which also means that it is difficult to recover after consumption, even if he continues to meditate and communicate with the "Red Dragon", it will take an hour.

During this time, he felt more and more that ordinary food could not meet his needs, and he had to find some special food in case of emergency.

Damien and Sean exchanged glances, "In order to allow the members to quickly recover their energy and put into work, the department provides high-energy protein food, which only needs 1 gram, which can meet the needs of normal people for three days of life activities." ”

"High-energy protein foods? What is it made of? ”

"The meat of a certain supernatural creature found by the department has been treated with a special process to remove toxicity and adapt to high temperatures, so that it can be stored for a long time without spoilage. If the host needs it, we will help you purchase a batch of food. ”

"How much?"

"Please don't insult our hearts for you with money," said Damien earnestly, "these things are insignificant in relation to our income. ”

Dean patted Damien on the shoulder approvingly,

"Then I'll get five tons first."

"......" the corners of Damien's mouth twitched, his pale cheeks turned blue, and finally he gritted his teeth and nodded, "The plane will arrive in three days." ”

Dean added, "Do you have any inside information about various supernatural creatures and phenomena in your Special Operations Division? ”

This time, the detailed information about the Potala spider man and his family has been carefully transcribed to the "Supernatural Encyclopedia" by Shallow Ford with a small pen instead of Dean.

But it's never a bad thing to know more monsters.

"I have limited access to information at my secrecy level, and there are about two hundred occult records, which will be handed over to you along with high-energy proteins when the time comes."

Dean nodded, there is an adviser to the Special Operations Department, and the convenience is really not small,

He turned to Sean again,

"Doctor, is there a way to get more nuclear warheads?"

Dean tasted the sweetness last time, and he was still a little unsatisfied, with such a big killing weapon, even if he didn't use it to blow up spiders, it was good to defend himself.

Sean shook his head, "I'm sorry, this medium-high power weapon is very strict in the department, and after consuming one before, I can't get the second one for the time being." ”

Dean regretfully changed the subject, "Now that the research project of the Hawkins Lab cannot be carried out normally, can you completely eliminate the identity information of Number 11 in the Special Operations Department?" ”

"No. 11 has the potential to manipulate time and space, and it is named in the department, so it is not easy." Sean frowned and showed embarrassment, then gritted his teeth, "But what your master asks, we will do our best." ”

"Don't rush, take your time, and be safe." Dean finally made a request, "By the way, I also need you to help me find out the two supernatural forces. They are the monks of the Leviathan Hell, and the nocturnal species under the protection of Midianpaphos. ”

"Where are North Athabasca and Eastern Pisri?"

Sean and Damien nodded at the same time, "We'll use the department's internal channels to help you find out." ”
