American Comics Universe: I, the Containment Object Revealed at the Start

Sisyphus: "There are so many strange hostile races. How many disasters must have happened in their original universe?"

Suneo: "I'm so glad we're not in that world."

The screen continued playing even as some people were saying this.

"Siren Head is a 40-50 foot tall humanoid supernatural being, emaciated, covered in extremely shriveled, mummy-like flesh, the color of rusted metal. Its limbs are disproportionately long and thin, with arms and legs of equal length, and its hands ending in a pair of enormous, bony hands."

"Its head and neck were replaced by a thin, fleshy rod with two sirens attached (hence the name), and several black wires were wrapped around its 'neck,' went into its upper shoulder, and lay close to its abdomen."

[“Those speakers were the only metal parts in his body, fused to his neck through tendril-like skin, able to rotate around his neck like an owl’s head. The siren head was indistinguishable from the speakers, which contained fanged, lipless jaws and long, retractable snake-like tongues.”]

"As its name suggests, the Siren Head's speaker can play a wide variety of sounds, typically including air raid sirens, chaotic music, a human conversation, or an emergency broadcast. The Siren Head may contain a loose cassette tape and a built-in recorder. This could explain how the Siren Head captures the victim's voice and the surrounding sounds it replays as decoy."

"The siren head can also change its head or body structure, transforming into different forms for camouflage, environmental adaptation, or to alter its attack methods; sometimes it can even display a height ranging from 30 to 95 meters."

The screen begins explaining information about the siren head.

"The containment organization learned of Siren Head's existence through some particularly strange missing person reports."

"For a period of time, there were many disappearances, some in mountainous areas, some in cities, and some in rural areas. These incidents occurred at different times of day and night, but the only common thread was that no one ever saw the missing persons again."

"If it were just missing persons cases, they wouldn't attract the attention of the containment department, since there are missing persons cases every year. However, these missing persons reports all have very strange eyewitness accounts."

"That means someone saw some very tall, humanoid creatures moving around near the scene of the disappearance and then quickly vanishing."

"Because there was no surveillance footage, and it was only a few scattered people saying it, many people didn't take it seriously and thought they had seen it wrong."

"However, the containment organization discovered that among so many missing persons reports, some contained similar eyewitness accounts, totaling over a hundred. This made the containment organization realize that things might not be so simple, so they dispatched personnel to the missing persons scenes to investigate the relevant matters."

The video then switched to a forest.

Several agents are investigating here. This is the place where recent disappearances and monster sightings have been reported. They are here to look for any undiscovered clues.

["To increase efficiency, the agents split up to investigate, but to no avail. Just as they were about to leave, a colleague suddenly said he had found a clue through the walkie-talkie and asked everyone to go over."]

Chapter 303 The Disguised Hunter

"After receiving their comrade's message, the other agents immediately rushed to the location. However, upon arrival, they found their comrade missing, and strangely, they couldn't get a response from him no matter how they tried to contact him."

While everyone was wondering, they didn't notice that the previously motionless tree had begun to move, and it had even sprouted a single leg, walking like a person.

"Bang! The next second, a giant hand descended from the sky, crushing two agents to death and grabbing their bodies. The other agents, seeing this, immediately drew their pistols and turned around, only to see a monster over twenty meters tall that had appeared behind them at some unknown time. The monster's head was a speaker! They immediately opened fire, but the bullets had no effect on the monster; they couldn't even stop it from eating their comrades."

"Wow, this is delicious! We never knew our companions were this tasty!"

"Then this monster made the same voice as the agent who summoned them. Clearly, the radio communication just now was with this monster, its purpose being to lure the remaining agents over."

"Run!"

["The agents realized they were no match for the monster and immediately tried to escape. However, they had only taken two steps when they had to stop, because two more identical monsters appeared in front of them."]

"These monsters are over twenty meters tall, taller than any tree, and easy to spot, yet the agents haven't seen them at all in the forest. They also noticed that several tall trees had disappeared, leading them to realize that the monsters disguise themselves as trees to wait for their prey."

"By the time the agents realized this, they had already been captured by the monsters and become their food."

"They weren't the only ones who encountered Siren Head; other agents investigating other missing persons cases also encountered his attacks, though not everyone did."

"The agents' investigations before their deaths were all filmed via live cameras and transmitted to the containment organization. After analyzing the videos, the organization's researchers have tentatively deduced Siren Head's abilities."

"Siren-headed sirens can mimic the voice of victims to lure relatives and friends into a trap. They are excellent at disguise, able to blend into telephone poles, streetlights, trees, etc., without any sense of incongruity. Even if they are right next to someone, no one will notice. This is why siren-headed sirens can move around the city undetected. Their camouflage ability is truly amazing, and they can even move when a group of people are not paying attention."

Even if some people notice the siren head moving, if it remains motionless and makes no sound, they'll wonder if they're hallucinating.

"Furthermore, the Siren Head has strong defensive capabilities; assault rifles and shotguns cannot damage it."

"After confirming that Siren Head is a human-feeding creature, the containment team immediately organized personnel to go to the area where Siren Head had appeared for containment. However, when the Mobile Task Force arrived at the area where Siren Head had appeared, no matter how they searched, even firing at suspicious utility poles and trees, they could not find Siren Head."

"This put the containment committee in a difficult position. They couldn't very well destroy all the utility poles and trees just to find Siren Head, as that would greatly disrupt the lives of the local residents. But if they didn't search for him, who knew where Siren Head would be hiding or when he would reappear?"

"Just when the containment organization's search was hitting a roadblock, a live stream provided them with a clue."

"This was a live stream of a family of five celebrating their daughter's birthday. Many people were sending their blessings, and the birthday live stream looked incredibly happy and fulfilling."

[“But the next second something strange happened. One of the pipes in the house suddenly detached itself from the wall, and extended arms and legs, revealing a speaker head. It turned out to be a siren head in disguise!”]

【"Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!"】

["A monster suddenly appeared in the house, terrifying the family of five with constant screams. However, the screams did nothing to help; they were all mercilessly killed by Siren Head and made into his food. He would even kill a little girl as young as a few years old."]

"This live stream was watched by many netizens, and it deeply impressed them."

This caused considerable trouble for the containment organization's subsequent information blockade, but they quickly called the Mobile Task Force to go to the location based on the IP address of the live stream to contain Siren Head.

"Based on this, Containment Council deduced that Siren Head can not only disguise itself outdoors, but also indoors as an ordinary pipe, then hunt people inside houses without their knowledge."

This explains why some missing persons reports exist even though they never left their homes.

Many people were stunned when they saw this.

Tony Stark: "What the fuck! This thing can actually go indoors and disguise itself!"

Rod: "How is that possible! How could such a big thing just swagger into the house like that? Even if it could shrink to warn you, it's impossible for it not to be noticed. How could no one have noticed something suddenly appearing in the house?!"

Rogers: "Maybe Siren Head sneaked in when no one was home, or before the house was even built! Besides, sometimes the homeowner might not even know what's in the house, even after living there for a long time."

Bruce Wayne: "That's terrifying! It can even hide and hunt in people's homes. Who would have thought that such a monster would appear in their own house!"

Sage: "It's really incredible. I've seen a lot of monsters, but I've never seen one like this before."

Jiraiya: "It has extraordinary stealth abilities both indoors and outdoors, and its strength is not simple. This monster is much more threatening than the predatory bus we saw earlier!"

Sengoku: "It would be terrible if this thing got indoors. No one would expect to have a monster in their house. As soon as you fall asleep, Siren Head can take the opportunity to strike!"

Sun Wukong: "I wonder if this kind of monster has any aura. If we can sense its unusual aura, we will definitely be able to find it."

Daigo: "Then wouldn't we have to contain it immediately when it appears? But can this creature reproduce?"

Dan Moroboshi: "Who knows? Buses are fine, maybe even monsters like telephone poles."

Chapter 304 Siren Head's Abilities

While everyone was discussing Siren Head's concealment abilities, the video on the screen had already shown the Mobile Task Force arriving at the house in the live stream.

Fortunately, the nearest task force was there and arrived in just over ten minutes.

Upon arrival, they saw the siren head moving and opened fire without hesitation.

"Assault rifles kept firing armor-piercing rounds, and someone also launched rocket attacks. The screen was filled with the sounds of gunfire and smoke. Siren was hit so hard that sparks and smoke were constantly coming out of his body."

"However, this fierce offensive did little damage to Siren Head. On the contrary, Siren Head, braving the intense artillery fire, uprooted nearby houses along with their foundations and hurled them towards the Mobile Task Force, killing many of its members!"

"It then immediately charged forward and, with its immense power, wiped out the entire mobile task force."

"Through live camera feeds, Containment learned just how powerful Siren Head was, and immediately arranged for aircraft to transport even more powerful weapons to support the Mobile Task Forces on the front lines."

"The supporting weapons are naturally laser cannons and electromagnetic railguns. These weapons are extremely powerful in human understanding, and the Containment Council has used them to eliminate many powerful containment objects. However, they have failed to play their due role when facing Siren Head."

"The laser cannon and the electromagnetic cannon both hit Siren Head. Their power was enough to demolish several buildings, but Siren Head was only knocked away. Even though there were cracks in its body, it wasn't damaged internally, and it stood up again."

"It's unbelievable just how incredibly muscular Siren Head is!"

"Waaaaah! It hurts so much!!!"

"A very angry roar came from the siren's loudspeaker, seemingly particularly displeased with the containment group's attack."

["Waaaaah!!" "Aaaaaaah!!!"]

[“Upon hearing the loud siren, the members of the Containment Society couldn’t help but scream in agony. Their malicious meme detectors detected a large amount of malicious memes attacking their brains. In other words, the Vigilant Head could release malicious memes to launch a mental attack on the enemy!”]

"Despite the fact that the task force members were equipped with meme-resistant devices, they were still unable to withstand Siren Head's meme attack. They were in a state of great panic, voluntarily laid down their weapons, and dared not continue fighting."

"Then the siren head burst into astonishing speed, rushing towards the task force members in the blink of an eye. According to calculations, this was at least ten times the speed of sound! It then killed all the members of the mobile task force, turning them into its own food."

"Aaaaaah!" "Monster!" "Run!!"

"Siren Head's rampage was witnessed by many residents. Even though the shelter had arranged for evacuation beforehand, it couldn't stop curious onlookers. Now, many people know of Siren Head's existence and are fleeing in all directions."

"Perhaps because they knew there was no need to continue pretending, more than a dozen Siren Heads appeared in the surrounding streets, unleashing various abilities to carry out a massacre."

"First, there was the astonishing power. One siren head ripped a building thousands of meters tall, foundation and all, and then hurled it at the crowd without hesitation. This didn't just kill many people; it destroyed countless houses and an entire street was wiped out!"

"Several siren sirens sprayed highly acidic chemicals, melting many people completely, leaving not even bones behind!"

"Moreover, the light bulb on the siren emits a dazzling light that not only blinds people, but also possesses extreme temperatures of hot and cold, capable of igniting flames or freezing everything!"

"A siren blasted out an incredibly terrifying sound wave. The decibel level was absolutely unimaginably powerful; it could not only shatter ears and brains, but also destroy any building and even rip the ground off!"

"Tens of thousands have already perished under Siren Head's various abilities. Upon seeing this, the Containment Council immediately escalated the situation, dispatching fighter jets and transporting a large number of special forces to form an army for the attack. Cain and Abel are also involved in the operation!"

"Once the fighter jets arrived at the scene, they immediately launched a barrage of missiles to bombard Siren Head. Although this might affect many survivors, there was no time to worry about that now; the priority was to eliminate Siren Head at all costs."

"However, despite the bombardment from so many missiles, the Siren's head was only blown off; it didn't suffer any serious damage, probably not even minor injuries."

"They unleashed sonic waves at the countless fighter jets flying overhead, causing some to be destroyed. The remaining jets immediately took off to avoid the sonic waves. However, Siren Head then displayed a truly terrifying ability."

"The fighter jets were clearly taking off, but suddenly they appeared right in front of Siren Head and the others! Before they could react, they were enveloped by Siren Head's intense light; some turned into ice blocks, others burst into flames and crashed."

"This is spatial distortion! Siren Head has distorted space, making the fighter jet appear right in front of him!"

【"Aaaaaah! Die!!!"】

["Just as the fighter jets were being wiped out, Cain and Abel entered the battlefield. Abel, as always, wielded his greatsword and charged at Siren Head like a madman."]

["When Abel approached a Siren head, he swung his sword! The body, impervious to missiles, was cleaved in two by Abel's black sword! This was the first case of a Siren head being severely injured! However, even though the Siren head was severed in two, its upper body was still moving."]

"And then there's Cain, who also uses his power to deflect everything against Siren Head. No matter what moves Siren Head uses to attack Cain, they are all reflected back at him."

"It seemed even the Siren Heads themselves couldn't withstand their own power; after being struck by their own attacks, they all collapsed, severely injured."

"Cain and Abel's immense power attracted the attention of Siren Heads, who immediately launched an attack."

"Abel is alright; at least he can be severely injured and killed, although his repeated resurrections are annoying. Cain, on the other hand, is different. No matter what kind of attack he receives, it will be reflected back. Although Cain shows signs of pain when the attacks are reflected, he seems unaffected."

"After realizing how formidable Cain and Abel were, the Siren Heads ceased their fighting and instead warped space, teleporting them to an unknown location."

Chapter 305 The Shock Brought by the Siren

"After Cain and Abel were teleported away by Siren Head, the Containment Society's support arrived. They had obtained approval from higher-ups and brought a weapon even more powerful than electromagnetic railguns and laser weapons—the Crystal Vine Missile."

"Upon arriving at the scene, the fighter jets carrying Crystal Vine Missiles immediately launched them at Siren Heads. Upon the missiles' explosions, a large amount of graphite spread outwards, and then Crystal Vine covered all the Siren Heads, spreading rapidly and assimilating their bodies into Crystal Vine."

【"Waaaaaah!!!"】
