Spellcasting Gods

Unparalleled chaos!

Almost everyone was doing their best to escape the empty hall!

Of course, these ordinary people had ample reason to flee, because Zhang Cheng was not in human form at the moment, but a giant dragon with a body length of over a hundred meters including its tail. Its body was covered in magical metal that resembled flowing liquid, which added to its ferocious appearance.

Not to mention ordinary citizens, even the police officers who ran over from not far away were so frightened that they froze on the spot and didn't even have the courage to draw their service weapons.

Although he did not unleash a single spell, the sheer aura of the dragon alone was enough to completely throw the situation out of control.

It is foreseeable that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, within about half an hour, all the world's news media will be frantically reporting on a monster from the age of mythology.

"Oh—damn it! I hope things don't get any worse." Zhang Cheng's lips twitched slightly, his face full of helplessness.

After all, he came here to relax and have a vacation, not to play hide-and-seek with government agencies and the military.

Furthermore, he noticed that the crowd had been shouting in English, so if he wasn't mistaken, this place was either British or American, and judging from the modern facilities around it, it was definitely somewhere after 2000...

Chapter 0512 Confirming the World

"Waaaaah... Mom! Where are you?"

A little girl, about five or six years old and wearing a pink princess dress, finally couldn't hold back her tears and burst into sobs.

I couldn't help but cry!

She was standing directly in front of Zhang Cheng. If the dragon's claws moved forward even slightly, this cute little girl would instantly die.

"Quiet!"

Zhang Chengshi really hated hearing children cry, so he bent down, glared at them with his two golden eyes, and scolded them in standard American English.

Keep in mind that from the moment he passed through the gap until now, he hasn't attacked a single person. At most, a few unlucky souls were trampled and suffered minor injuries while trying to escape.

For some reason, the scene looked as if he had committed some heinous crime.

Whether it was from fright or not, when the little girl saw the black dragon's enormous head and sharp teeth, she immediately stopped crying, hugged her teddy bear tightly, and trembled all over.

A full minute passed before she mustered the courage to ask, "Mr...Mr. Evil Dragon! Will you eat me?"

"No! No way! How could you have such a ridiculous idea? Humans are not on my menu!" Zhang Cheng waved his paw impatiently, secretly watching the commotion outside.

In just a few minutes, he had already sensed the rich magical energy permeating the world.

Without a doubt, this Earth is no ordinary Earth, but a world filled with supernatural forces. It's just that it's not quite sure whether it's a game or movie from one's memory, or a completely unfamiliar and independent place.

"Really...really? You really won't eat me?!" The little girl seemed to realize that the huge creature in front of her really didn't have any hostility towards her, and she gradually became bolder.

"Yes! I guarantee it..."

Before Zhang Cheng could finish speaking, an extremely fast figure suddenly rushed out of a dilapidated van and sprinted towards the little girl's location at a speed almost imperceptible to the naked eye.

Clearly, this guy wanted to rescue the girl right under the monster's nose.

Normally, most people simply don't have time to react.

But Zhang Cheng was clearly not an ordinary person; to be precise, he wasn't even human.

With the superhuman physique and reaction speed granted by his divinity, he easily raised his claws and slammed the girl to the ground with a thud just as she was about to touch him.

"what!!!!!!!!"

The immense force caused the reckless black man to let out a painful howl.

But for some reason, the arm that had just been severed recovered completely in just a few seconds, its regenerative ability comparable to that of the trolls of Faerûn.

"Huh? What's this?!"

Zhang Cheng seemed to have discovered something interesting. He gently tore open the other person's sleeve and found a centipede-shaped device filled with an unknown liquid.

Combined with the other person's rather familiar Black face, it instantly connected with a certain movie or TV show from my memory.

Before he could figure out what to do, several black SUVs sped over and, in the blink of an eye, pulled out more than a dozen fully armed soldiers. Two of them were carrying thick pipes on their backs, which were obviously rocket launcher firing devices.

Fortunately, these people did not rush to launch an attack; they simply moved into their positions and surrounded the entire station from top to bottom.

About half a minute later, a middle-aged white man in a black suit, with a forced smile on his face, cautiously walked in from the entrance.

He raised his hands to indicate that he was unarmed as he slowly approached, speaking in a calm and unhurried tone: "Hello, esteemed Mr. Dragon, my name is Phil Coulson, from the Strategic Homeland Defense, Attack and Logistics Agency. I know you can understand our language. Please release the girl and the wounded man at your feet immediately, and we can sit down and talk."

"Of course! No problem!" Zhang Cheng took two steps back without hesitation, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips.

Clearly, this is none other than the famous Marvel Universe, and specifically the storyline from the very beginning of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Uh... that's it? No additional conditions?" Coulson was clearly stunned.

He never dreamed that such a huge, ferocious, terrifying, and intimidating dragon would be so easy to talk to.

"Hehe, no, of course there are conditions attached. My condition is to bring the girl from that metal box outside over here." Zhang Cheng pointed lightly to the dilapidated van outside the station.

Upon hearing this, Coulson's expression immediately turned ugly. He frowned and tentatively asked, "Why do you want that girl?"

"To fulfill the contract!"

"A contract? What contract!"

“A magical contract! You don’t think I appeared out of thin air, do you? No! I came in response to a summons!” With that, Zhang Cheng raised his front paw and gently hooked one of his fingers.

Daisy Johnson, the vibrator girl who was about to awaken her powers, immediately felt as if she were out of control and flew straight over.

Oh, by the way, she still doesn't know who her parents are and is still using the name "Skye".

"My God! Coulson! What on earth happened?"

No one can remain calm in the face of a dragon that is hundreds of meters long, so the young woman could only turn to the person who seemed most reliable at the scene for help.

Ignoring the wary gazes of those around him, Zhang Cheng pretended to get close to the other person's face and asked in a deep voice, "Are you the human who summoned me?"

“Summon? What summon? I don’t know! I don’t know anything!” Skye was trembling uncontrollably.

Because she was so close, she could even feel the heat emanating from the nostrils of the enormous creature in front of her.

"No! You summoned me! I can feel it! Never mind, let's complete the contract immediately so I can leave this world as soon as possible."

As the last word escaped his lips, Zhang Cheng, without warning, tapped the shattered magic crystal above his head that was flashing with an unusual light.

moment!

A very thin tentacle squeezed out from the edge of the shattered magic crystal, pierced directly through the skull, and parasitized a cluster of cells belonging to the Mind Flayer's main brain near the girl's central nervous system.

Before Coulson could even react to what was happening, Skye, under the intense pain, unleashed an interesting psychic ability, slowly floating up while emitting a blinding white light.

"Damn it! What did you do to her?!" Coulson jumped up and grabbed the girl's left leg, angrily questioning her.

"Don't worry, I'm merely granting her the power she desires according to the contract. Next, I will teach her how to use her psychic abilities as agreed, until she can master them..."

Chapter 0513 Report

What would happen if a black dragon, hundreds of meters long, suddenly appeared in downtown America?

Just look at the busy figures of the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and you'll know.

Although many people have developed a high degree of immunity to superpowers due to the recent large-scale invasion of New York by an alien fleet, in which many superheroes, including the Avengers, were fully exposed to the public, the terrifying creatures like dragons, which only appear in myths and legends, are still a bit too exciting.

Zhang Cheng's calmness and rationality throughout the entire process, as well as his fluent and proficient English, aroused great interest among many idle people.

Several videos shot on mobile phones sparked a massive and heated discussion on news and social media, so much so that even after more than ten hours of intense activity, the well-trained agents were unable to completely quell the controversy.

Some animal rights organizations even displayed banners that read "Strongly protest the government's imprisonment of rare species and vow to defend the rights of dragons to the death," and gathered to demonstrate in front of Washington, D.C.

In this country filled with chaos and all sorts of bizarre ideas, there's nothing the American people won't do, only things you can't imagine.

Of course, none of this had much to do with Zhang Cheng. He was currently lying in the underground hangar of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Trident headquarters, enjoying the delicious food provided by this organization, which was known as the largest intelligence organization on Earth. He occasionally assisted a group of experts with a small test and even generously gave them a small bottle of his blood.

As a divine dragon, his blood is no ordinary substance; even a single drop can significantly improve the overall physical condition of ordinary people and extend their lifespan.

With S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research capabilities, it shouldn't be long before they discover even a small part of the secrets.

Most importantly, once Hydra, lurking inside, discovers this, it will react quickly, allowing it to raise prices and acquire items that interest it.

Zhang Cheng didn't care at all whether these two groups would take any extreme measures.

To be precise, with his powerful psychic abilities, he could control everyone in the entire Trident headquarters in a matter of minutes, and then connect to the world's largest nuclear-armed states through the network there, allowing thousands of nuclear warheads to enter standard launch procedures, turning Earth in the Marvel Universe into a radiation wasteland within hours.

Unfortunately, no one has yet realized just how dangerous the behemoth they brought back is. The one-eyed bureau chief is secretly rejoicing that such a massive prehistoric beast has never harmed a single person from beginning to end, and has even acted very cooperatively.

Watching the live feed transmitted back from the monitor, Nick Fury took a deep breath and asked his deputy, who had just walked in, "So, what's the result? What is it? An alien creature? Or some kind of life form like a dinosaur left over from Earth's ancient times?"

"I'm sorry, Chief, we can't confirm. Our scientists found some incredible substances in the blood samples it provided, which can greatly enhance cellular potential. A mouse injected with a tiny amount almost shattered an inch-thick bulletproof glass. Its intelligence, strength, and nerve reaction speed were all greatly improved, and it also has the ability to regenerate and heal at super speed. If the subject were a human, it probably wouldn't be much worse than the Captain."

After saying that, Maria Hill threw a thick stack of reports on the table, her eyes filled with vigilance.

There's no way we can't be vigilant!

According to the researchers in the laboratory, the life form of a creature with this kind of blood has long surpassed the scope of human understanding. Ordinary firearms are completely useless, and even the famous "Phalanx" missile cannot penetrate the bio-force field surrounding the body, not to mention the mysterious liquid metal that flows constantly on the body surface and the scales under the metal that are harder than steel.

Yet this incredibly powerful creature didn't put up the slightest resistance from beginning to end, obediently following Coulson back to Trident headquarters. Who knows what it was planning?

"You mean... its blood can be used to create super soldiers?" Nick Fury picked up the report, glanced at it, and showed an interested expression.

Maria Hill nodded slightly: "Perhaps! We don't yet know what changes would occur if its blood were injected into the human body, but theoretically it should be correct."

"What about the girl Coulson brought back? How is she now?" Nick Fury asked without looking up.

"His bodily functions are all normal, but a cluster of invading cells in the central nervous system is rapidly dividing and filling every corner of the cerebral cortex. His brainwave activity is twenty times that of a normal person. He is currently in a coma but is not in any life-threatening danger."

"What did the dragon say?"

“It means that in a maximum of half an hour, our Sleeping Beauty will wake up and gain a superpower called psychic abilities,” Maria Hill replied with a shrug.

“Telepathy?” Nick Fury instinctively touched his bald head.

"Yes! According to its explanation, it should be a way to obtain the ability to interfere with matter and energy through idealistic self-affirmation. It is very powerful and very mysterious. During the experiment, the dragon could not only easily invade the minds of every agent, making the invaded targets obey its will through illusions and suggestions, but it even created a miniature black hole out of thin air."

Maria Hill couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the black hole that had appeared out of nowhere in the hangar just two or three hours earlier.

She simply couldn't imagine what would happen if that black hole expanded infinitely and swallowed up the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, or even the entire Earth.

"Damn it! It's even more dangerous than those Chitauri?"

Mind invasion, human control, black hole creation...

Regardless of which one it was, Nick Fury felt a chill run down his spine. He couldn't even imagine what the world would be like if the other side suddenly targeted the top government officials of various countries.

Maria Hill clearly knew what the director was worried about, and lowered her voice to suggest, "I think it's best to keep this information confidential for now, and not let it get out to the outside world, otherwise it could cause a lot of panic. At least until we have the weapon to kill it, don't do anything rash."
