I become light in American comics

Chapter 23 Such a perfunctory touch?

Shen You lifted a large bag full of snacks onto the counter. The boss behind the counter looked away from his old-fashioned small TV and glanced at the large bag of chocolate balls and lollipops in the bag.

The boss laughed out loud: "I heard that your store has had a baby in the past two days?"

The owner's surname is Wang, who is also a nearby neighbor and runs a small convenience store. He and Shen You are also considered acquaintances.

Shen You smiled: "My friend's daughter."

Boss Wang nodded, skillfully picked up the QR code scanner, and placed the items in the bag on the table one by one.

"Friends from out of town?"

"Yes. There are some things, so my daughter will stay here for a while."

"That's it, then you have to take good care of her, especially teach her to pay attention to self-protection." Boss Wang said, "After all, this is Gotham, and girls especially need to learn to protect themselves. Well, of course boys are also important."

Shen You nodded in agreement: "I will teach her."

But considering the target is a Kryptonian girl.

I feel that it is more important to teach her how to protect others from herself in the future.

Few people could hurt her, even in a place like Gotham.

"I just watched the news," Boss Wang continued. "Yesterday it was said that there was an escape accident in Black Gate Prison."

"Oh?" Shen You was a little surprised.

It's not like he's never heard of Blackgate Prison. Along with Arkham Asylum, it's also known as Gotham's two major public restrooms. The prominent security design concept of these two organizations is that "it's a pleasure to have friends come from far away", and they can come in and out as they please. I wish I could celebrate Children's Day so that both the murderer and the lunatic could take two days off.

Sometimes Shen You even doubts whether their security concept is based on our Kingdom of Light. You have to buy at least a ticket for buses, but these two...

Not good to rate.

But to be honest, it should be in the post-Batman era, at least according to the memory of the original work. Could it be that the history of Gotham's Blackgate Penitentiary is older than what the comics show?

"Actually, not really." Boss Wang smiled strangely and started gossiping, "You must not have paid attention to the news."

Shen You shook his head: "What happened?"

"No one escaped from prison, but there was an idiot who tried to climb over the wall and was caught by the prison guard who was keeping watch."

Shen You didn't understand for a moment: "Someone wanted to escape from prison and enter the black door, but was caught?"

"Yeah, I heard that his good buddy was in jail. He was bored and wanted to go in and hang out with his buddy, so he was arrested.

After finishing it, I went to the black gate and checked the files, and found out that this guy is really a wanted criminal.

Then the warden said, since you are here, you might as well not leave. And then he stayed.”

Shen You: "."

"That's not the most amazing thing." Boss Wang was already laughing so hard, but he still suppressed his laughter and continued, "The most amazing thing is, why is the guy who knew he went in to see him in jail?"

"Why?"

"Because of him, he kidnapped more than 20 people, illegally imprisoned and forced them to listen to the songs he wrote for more than 30 hours in a row, driving those people crazy. Hahaha."

Shen You: "."

Boss Wang scanned the codes of all the products, sealed them and stuffed them into bags and handed them to Shen You. He smiled and said, "Look, I've always told people that this is Gotham. Magical, but realistic. You will never guess this weird thing." What will happen there."

"That makes sense."

Shen You said goodbye to the boss and left the convenience store with a large bag of snacks.

As soon as I went out, I suddenly felt a cold feeling on the back of my neck.

There is a cool feeling like being locked in.

Aliha is a criminal from the Phantom Zone, a member of an alien race named "Parasites" by the Kryptonians.

Their race is undoubtedly extremely dangerous to the people on earth, but that doesn't mean that they are very powerful. Rather, they are elusive and are good at sneaking in, spying, and all actions that require concealment, and even kill people without being seen.

Because their nature is similar to parasites.

Jumping from one host to another, it can seize and transform the host's body. They occupy the magpie's nest, replace the host's consciousness and occupy the body. After consuming the body, they will immediately leave to find the next host.

During this period, he can occupy the host's identity and take away the other person's entire life. They will slowly enjoy the process while eating away at the host's life, obtain the necessary information to complete specific tasks, and finally walk away clean.

Aliha is the elite of their race. It is particularly good at this and enjoys this cruel process. The most glorious and difficult task it has ever accepted in its career is to sneak into the upper echelons of the eleventh-level civilization Krypton and assassinate a key target.

At that time, it patted its chest confidently and refused the farewell banquet set by the tribe for itself.

"There is no need." Aliha said contemptuously, "Give me three days. Within three days, you will hear the news of the death of that stupid Kryptonian. Just prepare the celebration banquet and wait for me."

At that moment, it became the hero of the whole family. The whole country cheered it off.

Then

Then it was imprisoned in the Phantom Zone by the Kryptonians.

Not long after that, the home planet of the Parasitic Chrysalis was also trampled to the ground by the Kryptonians.

Now, times have turned around, and by chance, Aliha has been given a new opportunity. It and all the other criminals who managed to escape from the Phantom Zone formed an alliance, known as the "Phantom Alliance", to serve a certain supreme terrorist being who was also imprisoned in the Phantom Zone.

Aliha doesn't know the identity of that being, but it knows that the other person has god-like power. It is said that the leader's physical body can withstand the bombing of interstellar weapons, he can tear apart space battleships with his hands, and his eyes can emit heat that annihilates everything.

But now, that being had only one order for them.

Find the Kryptonian girl who rushed out of the Phantom Zone like them.

The last daughter of the El family, Kara-Zor-El.

Not long ago, a member of the Phantom Alliance sent back news. He is an Atlonian named Li-Bago, an ugly guy with sickle-like forelimbs. Aliha had always looked down on him, but he had to admit that the guy's racial talent made him quite capable of fighting.

The last message from Li-Bago said that he suspected that he had found the daughter of Krypton, and then

Then there is no more.

The alliance suspected that something had happened to Li-Bago, so Aliha was sent to investigate the situation.

Aliha was very excited when she discovered this planet called "Earth". He has never been here, nor has he seen the race that calls itself "human" here.

Every time it encounters a new species, it will enjoy invading and occupying their bodies, devouring their memories and lives bit by bit, feeling the other person's consciousness dissipate hopelessly in its mind, and finally taking all their lives as its own. the process of.

That is its most pleasurable moment.

After changing two hosts in succession in the past few days and digesting their memories, it controlled the body of the third host and finally smelled the smell of Kryptonians by relying on the superpowers inherent in its race.

But it's not strong. It's not the Kryptonian himself, but the aura of someone else.

Following this aura, it quickly located the young man who was coming out of the convenience store carrying a big bag.

it's him!

Aliha showed a cruel smile and leaned in silently.

It looks like this is its main meal today.

It wants to occupy this person's body, digest his memory, and find out information about Kryptonians. Then eat up his life and spirit completely.

Having made up his mind, Aliha found the right moment and chose a corner with no one around.

It's now!

The parasite broke away from its host, and the unconscious latter suddenly fell to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut off. Using the cover of the shadow, the strange creature turned into an afterimage and pounced directly on Shen You.

Mine, everything is mine!

Aliha laughed cruelly in her heart and then the laughter stopped abruptly after half a second.

Instead, there was a deep shock at the unexpected situation.

Hot, hot, hot!

Unexpectedly hot, a heat wave hit his face, as if endless light and heat were contained under this human-looking skin, and it seemed to evaporate in an instant.

Aliha wanted to scream, but even the ability to scream disappeared in the burning moment.

The huge fear and shock swallowed up the parasitic man in an instant.

What's going on with this fiery light! ?

How could there be human beings? How could there be any living thing in the interstellar world that could contain such exaggerated amounts of light and heat?

What was it that I pounced on?

A humanoid self-propelled sun?

Almost at the moment of contact, it instinctively wanted to withdraw its body.

Because every cell in his body was telling him that this person was not someone he could enter casually.

He will definitely die!

Unfortunately it's too late.

The moment he touched it, a huge suction force came from the body, as if there was a powerful magnet hidden in the hot sun.

The body has lost control of itself, and the huge gravity is like a black hole that swallows everything. The huge pain and burning sensation made it feel as if its soul was about to be melted.

In a daze, the scenery in front of me seemed to be spinning. The young man in front of him and the entire street disappeared, replaced by a blue, ethereal realm, a space with a sacred atmosphere, extending infinitely in all directions, seemingly without boundaries.

It was as if there was an illusory, ethereal, and extremely loud voice reverberating in this sacred space.

"Let there be light."

At first, there were countless golden light spots, and more and more light spots condensed more and more dazzlingly, transforming into a giant shadow that towered over the sky.

The sacred golden light that shines so brightly that one cannot look directly at it, wraps the silver giant, the golden eyes full of divinity, the huge outline blurred in the golden light, and the pressure that fills the domain seems to crush people into pieces. People can only think of the giants who hold up the heaven and earth at the beginning of chaos.

Aliha could no longer feel his own existence, and even the burning pain seemed to disappear, leaving only the huge shock that filled his soul.

That kind of crushing on the level of life, the trembling of the soul when faced with a high-level existence that transcends understanding.

God?

This word came to mind involuntarily.

What followed was deep annoyance at myself for having pounced on myself a second ago.

How dare you mess with him?

How dare you? ?

In its last moments, it felt as if it were filled with light.

Like a moth rushing into a fire, not even ashes are left behind.

Shen You felt as if he was being attacked.

But using the word attack seems like an overreaction.

It should be said that it felt like being hit on the neck by something like a flying insect. It felt a little bit but not very sure. It was suspected to be a hallucinatory touch.

In short, the intensity certainly does not meet the definition of an attack.

Then he turned instinctively.

Immediately, he saw a homeless man behind him fall to the ground and lay motionless.

Shen You's pupils shrank at that time——

——Pengci?

But then I thought about it again.

That’s not right either.

You're still at least five meters away from me. Are you so unprofessional these days? Is it so perfunctory?
