I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 207 The Gray Fog Reappears

Just as Ivan Vanko's body fell deep into the monster's body.

When flesh and soul are about to be broken down into the most basic particles, becoming the building blocks of a fortress.

A chilling wind, seemingly from nowhere, suddenly swept over Erin's body, followed by a layer of gray-black mist that appeared out of nowhere and enveloped the monster.

The moment the gray-black mist rose, an indescribable sense of terror swept over us.

The invisible pressure made Erin's breath catch in her throat, and her expression became more serious than ever before.

"This aura..."

When the black mist that came with the cold wind appeared before him.

That familiar, terrifying aura instantly reminded Erin of his encounter outside Tony Stark's villa after killing Obadiah.

The same aura, the same... terror.

However, at the time, he had his back to Obadiah. Although he felt the terror behind him, he did not witness what happened to Obadiah.

But this time, he witnessed this terror firsthand.

It was a tremor that rose from the depths of the soul, a terror that could not be described in words.

In the dim light.

Erin seemed to "see" a terrifying gaze silently descending upon him from the depths of the gray-black mist before him.

Under that gaze.

Erin's exposed skin was covered in a dense layer of dark red downy hair, beneath which grayish-white fleshy buds writhed incessantly. A silent crack appeared between Erin's eyebrows, and an indescribable aura of evil rapidly spread from the crack...

In the blink of an eye, under the gaze of that indescribable look, Erin's body underwent a terrifying transformation.

Moreover, this mutation is spreading across Erin's body at an even more terrifying speed.

Such a bizarre scene, if witnessed by someone, would likely send chills down their spine instantly, and even cause the timid to lose their minds under this eerie contamination.

Just being stared at by that strange gaze caused Erin, who had already been promoted to "Magician", to begin showing signs of losing control of his body.

This is enough to prove how terrifying the gray-black mist in front of him was.

The mere fact that Erin was being watched by that gaze from within the gray-black mist triggered a change in his body. What kind of encounter is that little monster shrouded in the gray-black mist going through now?

····································

The gray-black mist was so terrifying that Erin was afraid of accidentally catching sight of some indescribable being within it, and dared not cast his gaze even slightly into the depths of the gray-black mist.

That's why.

At this moment, Erin had no idea how comfortable the little monster he was still thinking about was, even in the face of the danger of losing control.

unexpected.

Enveloped in the black mist, the monsters suffered no harm whatsoever.

On the contrary, they seemed to be in their element, appearing exceptionally joyful.

The scattered gray-black mist, under the influence of an unknown force, continuously merged into the monster's body, causing some unknown change to occur in the monster's large, trash can-like body without its knowledge.

At the same time that the little monster's body was changing.

Ivan Vanko's body, swallowed by the monster, was instantly burned to ashes by some unknown force.

In the instant his body was burned, Ivan Vanko's soul, filled with obsession and resentment, seemed to receive some unknown nourishment, and in a twisting motion, streaks of gray-black... sprouted...

Before the twisted soul could fully deform, a gust of cold wind swept it away, pulling it out of the monster's belly and disappearing into the depths of the gray-black mist.

·····························

The grayish-black fog came quickly and went quickly.

After taking away Ivan Vanko's twisted soul, he vanished without a trace right in front of Erin.

Even Erin, who had been watching all this, didn't notice how the gray-black mist disappeared.

If it weren't for Erin's nearly out-of-control body and the little monster that had become much slimmer after absorbing the gray-black mist, it would be saying something.

This gray-black mist seemed to have never appeared at all, from beginning to end.

······························

A gust of cold wind blew by.

After the gray-black fog dissipated.

Arlin, who was only two or three steps away from losing control, gasped for breath a few times. Then, through a meditative state of mind, he forcibly integrated his will, which was turning into distortion and chaos, and slumped back onto the sofa that was stained with Tony Stark's blood and had become mottled.

After sitting on the sofa, Erin quickly closed her eyes.

I began to visualize the "Brain of the Universe".

Through the visualization of the cosmic brain meditation method, Erin continuously modified and purified his chaotic and distorted spirituality, and restrained his body from showing signs of losing control.

As the meditation continued and Erin's self-awareness was corrected.

After about ten minutes, the grayish-white fleshy buds that had grown on his body, as well as the dense dark red downy hairs, gradually faded away and slowly merged into Erin's flesh and blood.

Only the evil crack between Erin's eyebrows, which seemed to be nurturing something, remained firmly in place.

The crack between his brows constantly emanated an evil aura, resisting Erin's corrections.

Just as Erin's will was battling against the crack in his brow that was harboring unknown evil.

After Erin purified the aura of the evil god, it did not completely dissipate. Instead, the wisp of "purifying light" that had merged into Erin's body suddenly surged out from Erin's heart and then quickly traveled to the crack between Erin's eyebrows.

The moment the purifying light touched the crack between Erin's eyebrows, an extremely strong purifying aura erupted.

Purification...

Purify, purify...

A holy radiance shines forth.

Under the holy light of purification, the crack in Erin's brow was instantly severely damaged. Unable to resist any longer, it melted away under the light of purification in less than a second.

After the evil aura dissipated, the crack between Erin's brows slowly healed under Erin's control.

After the strange crack between Erin's eyebrows completely healed, he slowly opened his eyes again, looking exhausted.

"call!"

After letting out a deep breath, Erin slowly sat up from the sofa.

I stretched out my hands and looked at the flesh beneath the skin of my palms, which seemed to be wriggling slightly.

A wry smile appeared on Erin's face.

This is truly a case of misfortune striking out of the blue when one is simply sitting at home.

It's so late at night.

Not only were they inexplicably blocked at the door and bombarded, but after just dealing with one opponent, they encountered this damn unreasonable gray-black fog again.

If the gray-black mist hadn't dissipated so quickly...

Erin might have completely lost control under the watchful gaze of that faint, yet unseen, gaze within the gray-black mist.

Even now, having managed to forcibly "correct" the "distorted" thoughts and spirituality within himself, Erin estimated that it would take at least ten days to half a month for him to fully return to normal.

In fact, if it weren't for the burst of that wisp of purifying light that hadn't been completely consumed before, which helped Erin purify the evil eye that was still gestating and was most out of control between his eyebrows, it would have taken at least ten days or half a month.

On her own, it might take several months for Erin to suppress the loss of control within her body, and there is even a possibility that she will be further affected by the loss of control.

I suffered this for no reason.

At this moment, Erin was in an extremely bad mood.

If it weren't for the fact that he had gained at least a thousand Fate Points after killing Ivan Vanko, Erin's expression would have been even more unpleasant.

and many more!

Little monster...

Having suppressed the twisted and out-of-control spirituality and will within her, Erin, whose rationality returned, instantly remembered the little monster shrouded in the gray-black mist earlier.

Before Erin could even look towards the spot where the monster had been shrouded, a large, wet tongue cautiously peered towards Erin's tired face.

Ok?

"Wait, don't lick my face..."

As he subconsciously called out, Erin's heart, which had been pounding, slowly eased when he caught a glimpse of the small monster peeking out from beside him.

································

"It's good that you're alright!"

After exchanging words with the little monster, Erin's expression turned strange.

I learned this from my interactions with the monsters.

The gray-black mist that had almost caused me to lose control just by standing outside not only failed to harm the monster after enveloping it, but actually allowed the monster to gain a lot of benefits from it.

Looking at the little monster's body, which had become much "slimmer," and the extra "arms" on its left and right sides that looked like whips and kept waving in mid-air.

Erin shook his head silently.

It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy.

According to Xiaoguai himself, the gray-black mist not only enhanced Xiaoguai's various abilities, but also helped it digest the two energy whips of Whip Rope, integrating them into its own body.

Ok.

That is, the two extra whips that protrude from the two halves of the monster's body.

Don't be fooled by the fact that those two woven blades are completely different from the energy whips in Ivan Vanko's hands. If the little monster wanted to, it could unleash the same power as those two energy whips.

Furthermore, the length of these two whips can be continuously extended according to the strength of the monster.

If the little monster were to exert its full power now, it could even use those two arms to circle the outside of the house.

In short, in addition to giving the monster two extra arms, these two energy whips also greatly enriched the monster's attack methods, significantly increasing its strength.

Even the house beneath Erin's feet seemed to have gained some unknown benefit from that gray-black mist.

After thinking about it for a while.

Erin believed that the differential treatment of the gray-black mist was related to the trace of primordial imprint from which the monsters were born.

That trace of the origin originated from the mark of an evil god.

In fact, the birth of the little monster is inextricably linked to that evil god's mark.

Evil gods are all strange and unknown terrifying beings.

Who knows if that fleeting wisp of gray-black mist was related to the evil god behind the evil god's mark that gave birth to the little monster?

Perhaps that gray-black mist was "taking care" of the little monster because it saw this point?

of course.

These are just Erin's guesses.

As for the truth of the matter, only the gray-black mist itself knows.

This time.

This gray-black mist was clearly aimed at Ivan Vanko, the one who had been killed by Erin.

Although he was shot in the head by Erin, according to Xiao Guai, Ivan Vanko's flesh and soul were taken away by the gray-black mist.

Come to think of it, when I killed Obadiah last time, it was this gray-black mist that took away Obadiah's soul and created an Iron Monger that was even more powerful than the original.

Is it going to be the same this time?

Is it possible that Ivan Vanko will soon be transformed into an unknown entity by that being deep within the gray-black mist?

Thinking about this...

Erin's expression changed.

If that's the case, Tony Stark's danger is far from over.

But speaking of which...

Why is it Tony Stark again?

Obadiah was Tony Stark's destined opponent last time, and Ivan Vanko is another one this time. Is there something special about all of this guy's opponents?

Or perhaps there was something strange about Tony Stark himself that made the gray-black mist treat his opponents differently.

Although she couldn't figure it out, for Aunt Pepper's sake, Erin decided to remind Tony Stark later.

...

After resting on the sofa for a few more minutes and catching her breath, Erin walked toward the basement.

Now that Ivan Vanko, who was hunting Tony Stark, has been killed, Aunt Pepper and the others no longer need to stay in the basement.

...

Meanwhile, Arryn dealt with Ivan Vanko, the man who attacked Tony Stark.

The interior design and architectural style of a certain place leans towards the old apartments of the 1930s and 40s.

Steve Rogers looked at the ten listening devices and three miniature cameras laid out on the table in front of him with a grim expression.
