Crossover: Is this how it's sewn?

Chapter 6.005. The Spell War

San Francisco, Mafia Building.

The weather was pleasant, with a halo of clouds drifting lazily by.

As dusk approached, the crimson sunset bathed San Francisco in a red glow. The streets bustled with traffic, and everything seemed peaceful. However, inside the buildings, the scene was quite different.

A yellow-green dragon sculpture hanging on the wall, its eyes glowing red, rang out in a hoarse voice: "Vallon, you've failed again. Without the talisman, you won't get a single gold coin from me."

"But sir, my men and I have done our best, but even you can't find the talisman... I've already mortgaged this building for the talisman, could you please..." said Walong, a silver-haired man in a yellow-green suit with a yellow tie and shiny leather shoes, fawningly.

"Enough! I've had enough of you and your bunch of circus clowns. The aura of the Sheep Charm has appeared. In New York, my men will help you remove the charm." Shendu interrupted Valon's speech, giving the order decisively.

Several shadow soldiers dressed as ninjas stepped out and gestured for Valmont to enter.

"Looks like it's time to get back to work, guys." Ah Fen, dressed in a white suit and pink shirt, said in a playboy-like tone.

Dressed in a black suit and tie, Rasu chuckled to Valon, "Boss, don't worry, we will definitely get the talisman back."

Valon walked out with a gloomy face and added, "Ah Fen, money is what I want. Ah Fu, come along."

"Yes, Mr. Valon."

……

In a shop called "Old Man's Antique Shop," Blake, the bald sheriff of District 13, walks towards Jackie Chan, who is wearing a blue short-sleeved shirt and tan pants. Although his outfit is a bit old-fashioned, it makes him look quite capable.

Jackie Chan stepped forward and greeted him with a smile, "Blake, what's up?"

"We've discovered the Black Hand Gang is active again. Our informant reports they're looking for talismans, and their target is an overseas Chinese man named Xu Zhenqing," Inspector Black said with a forced smile before turning serious to Jackie Chan.

After a bit of bickering, the old man's voice came through: "Jackie Chan, where's my tea? This old man's bones will be like a rusty machine, unable to move without tea."

"Ah, coming right away." Jackie Chan was startled and hurriedly brought over the tea that had gone cold, only to receive a slap on the head, a scolding, and a "there's one more thing" combo.

After hearing what Xiaoyu said, she smiled mischievously.

……

The following day, New York.

The sky was clear and the air was fresh.

There was a knock at the door. Xu Zhenqing, still half-asleep, went to the door and asked, "Who is it? It's so early in the morning, can't a person get any sleep?"

"Hello, this is a routine hotel inspection. Please cooperate with us. We apologize if our inspection causes you any inconvenience." A female voice came from the doorway; it was the hotel cashier who had processed Xu Zhenqing's transaction.

Without much thought, Xu Zhenqing said he needed to put on some clothes, and opened the door a moment later.

A group of men in black filed in. Xu Zhenqing feigned panic and hurriedly asked, "Excuse me, sir, is there anything that involves me?"

"Found it! It's under this tabby cat!" A surprised voice came from inside the house.

"We are agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., officially known as the Strategic Homeland Defense, Attack and Logistics Agency. We need you to come with us." The agent's face lit up with joy upon hearing that they had found him. He then put away the talisman and said to Xu Zhenqing with a serious expression.

After a moment of silence, Xu Zhenqing pretended to be flustered and said, "What S.H.I.E.L.D. officer? I'm a law-abiding immigrant, I just arrived in the United States, and I haven't done anything."

The agent gave a dismissive sneer: "You're being arrested precisely because you're a law-abiding expatriate."

Xu Zhenqing glanced at the innocent-looking cashier, opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

Several Thousand Serpent Curses silently appeared on the necks of the group. This was a Thousand Serpent Curse primarily designed for torture, strangling and tearing them apart day and night.

As for whether it will be discovered, let's not even talk about the fact that there is only one person in the country who has a vague understanding of the Ten Thousand Snake Curse. This curse is not something that only one person can use. We can just find a scapegoat.

The energy of the Ten Thousand Serpent Curse originates from the soul of the green serpent and the attached body. It is mainly provided by the body, and when not in use, it is provided by the caster. Of course, after each use, a portion of energy is accumulated to maintain its existence. If it is in a state of no energy, the serpent soul will continue to weaken.

It seems that only tangible souls need energy, while souls divided into the most basic units do not need an energy supply. Instead, they can gather energy. These basic units are similar to the creep of the Zerg, which can provide energy for memes.

Generally speaking, the average basic unit of a human soul, the soul, requires about one cubic meter to sustain it, and a person's soul can be divided into about eight cubic meters.

Of course, the soul has no spatial limitations. The unit of volume is used here for ease of calculation and also to determine the optimal volume for energy collection.

Getting back to the main point, after S.H.I.E.L.D. took Xu Zhenqing away, the 13th and 11th Districts, who had rushed over, found nothing.

After questioning, the two organizations learned that Xu Zhenqing had been taken away and immediately began to argue with Snake.H.I.E.L.D.

At the New York office of the Bureau of Shields, Xu Zhenqing was interrogated with his eyes down. He was constantly being asked to have tea, and his clothes were soaked by tea that he deliberately spilled under the pretext of his shaky hands.

"Sir, is there anything else you wish to say?" the interrogator asked in a questioning tone.

"I bought this sheep zodiac charm on the train to... This is under surveillance; I've already told them four times," Xu Zhenqing said in a slightly sarcastic tone.

The interrogator wondered if Zhenqing was beginning to express his anger in this way. They didn't want a stone, but rather the "illegal" gold.

Xu Zhenqing, who was the first to enter, realized that the other party wanted him to pay money to leave, rather than being so powerful as to know about the trivial transactions on a train. As for the talisman, the lower-level agents had no idea about it.

That explained why she wasn't questioned after getting off the plane; she was waiting here. S.H.I.E.L.D. is a global organization, so the flight attendant's identity was obvious.

After getting off the plane, they would switch to different S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to enforce the law, because only on the plane was it Chinese territory, but once they got off the plane, it was American territory.

"Even the wisest person can make a mistake, let alone a fool like me. It seems I should take advantage of the situation and use their strength against them." Xu Zhenqing sighed inwardly, thinking, "Originally, I was afraid that if I asked someone to hold the talisman on my behalf, it would be passed around too much and they would find out about me, so I thought of pretending that Xu Jiujiu stole it. But something just doesn't feel right."

"Was I affected by the fate of the sick child?" Xu Zhenqing saw a trace of dark energy on his forehead through the mirror next to him.

The latest novel is first published here!

【Misfortune】is a trait gained after merging with the sick child, which also affects one's own fortune. Based on this, Xu Zhenqing roughly understands why he has been targeted by Na Du Tong and She Dun Ju one after another.

Xu Zhenqing slammed his fist on the table, and subconsciously leaned back to widen the distance between them as he interrogated him.

Someone outside was drawn by the noise; the interrogation room's soundproofing seemed to be inadequate.

"Knock knock knock!"

The interrogation room door was kicked open under the weight, and Rasu poked his head in with a smug look on his face.

"Boss, that person is here."

"You actually dared to break into an intelligence agency?"

The interrogator was flustered and a little angry. When did anyone dare to trespass on S.H.I.E.L.D. territory?!

Xu Zhenqing's lowered face held a hint of schadenfreude, and this was only the beginning.

As expected, a group of shadowy soldiers outside the door suddenly attacked, throwing darts to efficiently eliminate the S.H.I.E.L.D. employees.

Ah Fen took off his red sunglasses and casually asked Xu Zhenqing, "Are you coming with us or with them?"

"I am not good at running around," Xu Zhenqing replied with his eyes lowered. The meme quietly infected the four-person group, ensuring the smooth progress of the follow-up plan against the Holy Lord, which was related to the bug in the history book of time.

By obtaining the complete encyclopedia of magic through the Holy Lord and then figuring out the location of the Book of Time, the rhythm of offense and defense will not be lost.

As expected, an accident occurred: Jackie Chan burst in through the window, which was on the thirteenth floor.

Seeing a group of shadowy soldiers staring at him with scarlet eyes, Jackie Chan's face turned bitter, and he cried out, "Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it!"

A shadowy soldier holding a sheep talisman slowly retreated, while several other shadowy soldiers stepped forward and fired a series of darts.

Jackie Chan dodged all the attacks with an extremely unscientific gait.

Xiaoyu, who appeared from an unknown staircase, lunged and snatched the talisman. Several dark figures, for reasons unknown, slowly approached Xiaoyu, trapping her in a corner.

"Uncle Long, save me!" A hint of panic flashed in Xiaoyu's watery eyes. Faced with the threat of the four shadow soldiers, she slumped to the ground and curled up in the corner, clutching the sheep talisman.

"Xiaoyu, throw the talisman over here!"

"Uncle Jackie, catch!"

A shadowy figure flew through the air, abandoning Jade and Jackie Chan as they lunged to snatch the item. Although Jackie Chan was faster, one of the shadowy figures grabbed his ankle and threw him to the ground.

The shadowy soldier who had successfully snatched the item reached out and was delighted to find a piece of chocolate that Xiaoyu had left over.
