American comic book red Superman

Chapter 56, Section 055: The Dead and the Japanese (Part Two)

Autumn always evokes a wonderful mood. The bleak autumn wind, the withered grass and trees, and the fallen leaves covering the streets are full of melancholy. Throughout history, countless poets in China have used their pens to express their feelings, blending the atmosphere of autumn with their emotions. Yet, autumn can also be pleasing to the eye and bring joy to people's hearts.

Beside the big tree, during PE class, Luo Wei lay on a bench, basking in the sun as usual, enjoying the gentle autumn breeze and relaxing comfortably.

Almost a week has passed since he returned from the underworld, but the token has not yet made any move. During this time, he also went to the prison where Pei Xushan was located and found that the old guy had been transferred away by the Self-Improvement Department. He learned from the prison guards that he seemed to have been transferred to the superhuman prison, and it was an emergency transfer. In the past, it would have taken some time to complete the process, but Pei Xushan was taken away directly after an interrogation.

In response, Luo Wei guessed that the Ziqiang tribe had most likely also noticed the existence of the undead Chi Hun, especially since Hua Xin was a telepath, so it was only a matter of time before she could extract Pei Xushan's words. Of course, it was also possible that Chi Hun had used some means to block Pei Xushan's memories.

In the DC Universe, such methods are not uncommon. In a chaotic world where mortals, gods, demons, and aliens coexist, unexpected things will always happen.

The fact that the Self-Strengthening Division learned of the existence of the undead Chi Soul was not a bad thing for Luo Wei. Currently, the token has not been able to sense the Chi Soul. Perhaps the Self-Strengthening Division can get some useful information from Pei Xusheng. As long as he pays attention to the movements of the Green Snake, he can know the actions of the Self-Strengthening Division. It's just that the Self-Strengthening Division has few superhumans. It is estimated that apart from the Green Snake and Hua Xin, there are few other members with outstanding individual abilities.

In the early stages, the Self-Improvement Department was mostly composed of ordinary people who carried out dangerous missions one after another. Later, as the number of superhuman members increased, ordinary people were left to the second line, while superhumans took the lead.

However, besides the Self-Strengthening Corps, China also has another superhero team, namely the Ten Heroes. However, the Ten Heroes were active in the 1960s and 70s, and they are rarely seen in modern times. There are very few records about them, and few people know their stories or have heard rumors about the Ten Heroes. In fact, Luo Wei has never heard the legend of the Ten Heroes from anyone since he was a child. He even thinks that the Ten Heroes may not exist in this world.

"Old Luo, watch the game!"

Suddenly, Luo Wei heard Wang Zikai's shout. He opened his eyes and saw a red and blue soccer ball spinning and rolling to the side of the chair. The spot where he was lying was right next to the soccer field, a spot that was often visited by soccer balls.

As always, he got up and kicked the ball high in the air in a perfect arc, like a crescent moon, straight into the corner of the goal behind the goalkeeper.

"Here it comes again, the Crescent Moon Blade."

On the field, Wang Zikai and the others were amazed. In all the time they had been playing football, this was the first time they had ever seen anyone kick such a curve. Luo Wei called it the "crescent moon," but it wasn't his invention. It seemed to be someone named Beckham.

"Luo Wei should really go to the youth training camp to save the national football team. The national football team has not qualified for the World Cup for two consecutive tournaments."

One classmate said.

"It's only been two terms, what's there to be afraid of? There will be plenty of opportunities to gradually develop in the future."

Come on, we're still young, we'll see the national football team achieve glory again someday.

Wang Zikai waved his hand innocently, his face full of anticipation for the future of the national football team.

"Indeed, only two terms."

"Wait a few more years, and you'll know that two World Cups isn't the limit," Luo Wei shook his head on the bench. "You're so young. The Chinese national football team's limit is far more than two World Cups. Anyway, he never saw the Chinese national football team qualify for the World Cup again before he died. It seemed to have become a distant legend, just like an ancient Chinese myth."

After school.

Luo Wei wanted to continue basking in the sun for a while, but the token hidden in his breast pocket suddenly trembled slightly. He quickly went to a secluded spot, took it out, and a few faint lights flashed across the token before disappearing.

After a short while, the token returned to calm.

"Did Yama give you a fake token? Why did it suddenly stop?"

Luo Wei squeezed the token, but saw no further movement. Could it be that the undead Chi Hun had just visited Green Vine City, or some nearby area? The token's search range seemed to be within a province, but Chi Hun left again after only a short while.

Or rather, Chi Hun is still in China, but has once again jumped out of the token's perception range. You should know that before this, he had been hiding for over a hundred years, never letting the Ten Courts of the Underworld find any trace of him, and even outliving the last dynasty of China.

After much deliberation, Luo Wei decided to take a trip around Green Vine City. If he was lucky, he might run into Chi Hun. With his super speed, traveling around half of China would be a piece of cake.

But just as he was about to fly out of the city, a loud bang came from the direction of the city's commercial street, accompanied by the sound of vehicles colliding, the squelching of water from a fire hydrant bursting on the roadside, and the terrified cries for help from passersby.

"Hmm? How long has it been since anyone dared to cause trouble in the city?"

Luo Wei frowned. Since Superman appeared, no one has dared to cause trouble in the city center for quite some time. At most, it's just petty theft and robbery. No one has the guts to make such a big commotion because Superman's intimidating power has been deeply imprinted in the minds of criminals.

Whoosh——

Without any hesitation, Luo Wei accelerated towards the city center. The cloak behind him emitted a deafening hiss the moment his body was launched, creating swirling vortexes that were clearly visible.

"Don't move! If you move even one more time, I'll kill you all!"

"Did you hear that?"

"Damn it, you've got some nerve! Break their legs!"

On a street, a silver van crashed into a black minivan, its hood popping out and billowing thick black smoke. There were also a pile of smashed tables and chairs and a broken fire hydrant on the side of the road. It looked like the two vehicles had just been chasing each other on the street.

Now, a group of people rushed out of each of the two vehicles, wielding steel bars and machetes, their faces fierce and eyes bloodshot, arguing heatedly, ready to erupt into an even more intense conflict at any moment.

"Damn it, all of you, get to it!"

"You've got some nerve!"

Each side had about ten people. Without saying a word, they brandished sticks and knives and charged forward fiercely, their menacing stances suggesting they wanted to kill each other. Bystanders all kept their distance, and some even called the police, but no one dared to intervene. In such a bloodthirsty situation, anyone who tried to stop them would likely get stabbed.

"stop!"

Just as the two sides were about to collide.

With a "thump," a tall and imposing figure descended from the sky, landing in a superheroic manner. He slowly straightened his back, and his deep and extremely intimidating eyes swept across both sides, like a sharp sword pressed against the necks of the two groups of people, making them stand still and dare not move forward.

"Who gave you permission to cause trouble here!"

Luo Wei's voice wasn't loud or gloomy, but it gave people an indescribable sense of oppression, as if a huge rock was pressing on their chest.

"No. They provoked us first. They cut us off and chased us all the way here. We couldn't take it anymore, so we took action."

The person in charge on the left immediately offered an explanation.

"Nonsense! You guys cut me off and caused a collision! My arm is scraped! Damn it, my scalp is cut open!"

The person on the right rolled up their sleeve, revealing an extra scar on their tattooed arm.

In an instant, tensions rose again, with both sides shouting insults and arguing loudly at each other, their weapons poised to strike, and their expressions gradually becoming agitated.

"Wait a minute, something's not right with you guys."

Luo Wei was taken aback. He glanced at the eyes of these burly men and noticed that beneath each of their eyes was a wisp of barely perceptible black energy. That chilling energy writhed back and forth like a parasite, seemingly constantly provoking their emotions.

Suddenly, the token on Luo Wei's body trembled slightly and flashed with light!

Chapter 57, Section 56: The Dead and the Japanese (Part 3)

"Chi Hun?"

Luo Wei pressed down on the trembling token and scanned the crowd's eyes again. He noticed that a dark aura was emanating from their eyes, growing stronger and stronger until it almost filled their entire eyes. As this phenomenon occurred, everyone's expression became increasingly ferocious.

"You were the one who cut me off, and you don't dare admit it?!"

"Bastard!"

Under the influence of Chi Hun's magic, their emotions gradually spiraled out of control, and their hearts became extremely agitated.

"Calm down, everyone. Someone is trying to confuse you."

While trying to persuade him, Luo Wei used his super senses to search the nearby streets, but found no suspicious people. It seemed that Chi Hun had already left.

It must be said that Chi Hun was both cunning and clever. He manipulated innocent people to create chaos, lured out Superman, and then fought against him, all while remaining hidden in the shadows.

"Go to hell, Superman, get out of my way! Don't get in my way!"

The burly man on the left gradually lost his mind and strode forward to shove Superman.

"Take your hands away!"

Luo Wei's gaze darkened as he slapped the burly man's hand away.

"Fuck you!"

Enraged, the burly man swung his knife, his face flushed, aiming it at the tall Luo Wei in front of him. With a "bang," the knife struck Luo Wei's hard shoulder.

"kill him!"

The crowd that had been cursing at each other suddenly turned bloodshot, lost control, and swarmed forward like hungry wolves, as if they wanted to tear Superman in the middle to shreds.

"Hey."

Left with no other choice, Luo Wei vanished in a flash, and a gust of wind swept through the crowd, causing everyone to faint and collapse to the ground.

A moment later, Luo Wei reappeared.

He didn't kill anyone, he just knocked them unconscious. After all, what these people did wasn't their own intention; they were just puppets of Chi Hun. Besides, the whole thing started because of him.

Fortunately, after fainting, Chi Hun's magic seemed to lose some of its effectiveness.

"Hey, call an ambulance."

Luo Wei pointed to the passersby in the distance, who were hiding behind tables and chairs watching the show. He noticed that the passersby looked somewhat frightened and pointed to the ground.

"Uh"

Suddenly, the people who had been unconscious on the ground opened their eyes, their eyes bloodshot, and a black aura surged forth again. As soon as they opened their eyes, their bodies almost instantly rose to their feet in an extremely contorted posture, like zombies, supporting themselves on their thighs.

"Huh? He's actually awake."

Luo Wei noticed the group and saw that their eyes were vacant and their life force was rapidly fading away.

With a whoosh, their bodies swelled, sharp claws grew from their fingertips, blood flowed freely, and they charged towards Luo Wei using all four limbs.

Seeing this, Luo Wei flew into the air, while the crazed burly man roared past below.

He sensed the several people who had risen again, and realized their hearts had stopped beating; they had become living corpses. "They've actually become puppets."

"Chi Hun".

To say I'm not angry would be a lie. Several vibrant lives were lost because of the Chi Soul, and they were all in their prime, with families behind them, perhaps even the pillars of their families.

Whoosh——

Suddenly, from the other side of the street, a figure wreathed in azure light rushed towards the group below, wielding a long staff. Upon reaching them, the staff swept across, and the out-of-control burly man, who had tried to block, was instead sent flying by the force of the blow.

After several swings, the four out-of-control individuals staggered and fell to their sides, their arms...

It presents as a deformed fracture.

"He's dead?"

The person who arrived was none other than the Green Snake. After defeating the four men, she strode over to them with her slender legs, only to find that their eyes had rolled back and they were lifeless.

The little girl's face turned deathly pale; she had never intended to kill anyone.

"Fool, they're all dead."
