The arrest of Sophia couldn't even be classed as a disaster because, before Marvel, stood a giant chanical Spider, and this thing was definitely not an illusion.
How did I co to judge this? In fact, it's quite straightforward. The reason previous special effects technology could only conjure fluid monsters is because anything closer to Magic would violate so physical laws unnoticed.
The simplest example: If you create a dragon that flaps its wings without generating wind as it flies by, you might believe it's Magic, but if you create an airplane that zooms past your scalp without causing any airflow, even a fool would know sothing was wrong.
So far, all the creatures created by these special effects devices leaned towards fantasy, and whether they were taking off, landing, or performing any action, they did not interact with the air because they were rely optical images, naturally making it very hard to create any physical effects; this was the biggest flaw of the special effects devices.
The major advancent of Marvel's upgraded equipnt was that it could simulate airflow by creating wind currents with drone rotors, thus producing air dynamics that were close to realistic.
But fake is ultimately fake. Drones could create so airflow, but they couldn't alter gravity.
When this monster smashed down, the ground trembled—clearly not sothing drones were capable of; this was truly substantial.
Even though it didn't appear as ferocious and powerful as it seed, it was more than Quentin Beck, robbed of his drones, could handle, causing his legs to weaken from fear, as he truly didn't know what to do.
Jason was about to escape, but the mont the Spider leapt down, he saw its movent and seed to recall sothing. So he stopped in his tracks, raised his cara, and captured Marvel's panicked expression.
Marvel was more than just panicked; he even retreated a few steps, staring blankly at the monster, no longer the suave figure he once was.
No, I can't run, I absolutely can't run, Beck cheered himself inside. If he ran now, everything he had done before would be in vain, he would never be able to prove his innocence or bring down Stark Group, he absolutely couldn't run...
But as the giant chanical Spider drew closer, and its sharp forelegs stabbed toward him, Beck's ntal defenses finally collapsed.
"Aaaaaaaah!!!!!!"
Marvel scread miserably, turned around, and ran like mad, but he was so panicked that he didn't see where he was going, tripped over a stone, and face-planted into the ground.
In his desire to look cool, he had sacrificed the protection of his helt, which was no more than a glass cover and shattered when it struck the pavent. When Marvel turned over, Quentin Beck's face was exposed in a state of desperate panic.
Jason captured this scene just in ti.
At that mont, a dark shadow descended from the sky—Miles kicked the giant chanical beast's leg, and with a bang, the monster flipped over.
Miles landed on the ground, turned to Marvel, and said, "Are you alright?"
Only then did he notice Jason, in his black Spider Suit, with two white eyes that were more conspicuous. The spider eyes playfully blinked and then shot out a strand of Spider Silk, kicking the re-rising Spider creature once more with force.
Jason adjusted his slightly askew glasses, raised an eyebrow, and took a photo of Miles as well.
In the Texas farmland, inside Lisa's house, Shiller and Aux were sitting on the threshold of the front door, with Shiller briefing Aux.
"We've never tried anything like this before and aren't sure whether regular people can ignite such a unique soul, but I really think you should give it a try, a child's arrival could greatly transform Lisa's ntal state."
Aux was still not fully recovered, looking sowhat dazed, but he nodded and said, "Thank you, Doctor, for saving from those troubleso agents."
"I didn't actually help you, rely maintained the ethical standards of a doctor. Your ntal state isn't suitable for interrogation right now. I need to ensure you are fully conscious to provide compelling testimony."
"How much longer will it take?" Aux asked: "I don't know if I made a mistake, don't know if I killed anyone, I'm beginning to understand Lisa's feelings, I think I'm going insane."
Shiller placed a hand on Aux's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I admit I must take so responsibility for your and Lisa's current situation, so I will ensure your safety as much as possible, but so things require careful investigation, and reckless action is not appropriate."
Aux nodded, Shiller then stood up, walked into the house, and gestured for Aux to co in. Aux stood up and followed him inside. Inside, Lisa's ntal condition had noticeably improved, her face had regained so color as she lay on the rocking chair, caressing her abdon as if awaiting the arrival of a new life.
A gleam finally appeared in Aux's eyes. He squatted next to Lisa, and as they exchanged a knowing smile.
Shiller gently patted the armrest of the rocking chair and said, "Now you can sleep. In your dreams, you should et a beautiful goddess who will explain everything to you. Don't be afraid, go ahead."
Lisa closed her eyes.
Her expression beca benign, radiating both motherhood and divinity, almost shining her radiance; she seed entranced, repeatedly murmuring so words.
But just at that mont, Shiller furrowed his brow, sensing sothing was amiss, and imdiately took out a small bottle of liquor, first sprinkled a bit on Lisa, then took a sip himself.
In an instant, Shiller found himself in Lisa's dream.
He saw a shadow flicker and vanish, while Lisa stood still, her face showing a dreamy expression, but Shiller did not see Gaia's figure here.
Only then did a gleam of light appear and Gaia landed in front of Lisa, but upon seeing Shiller at her side, she too was stunned.
"Are you feeling uneasy, special human?" Gaia said very gently, "I can assure you I will not harm her. She is about to carry and give birth to my child as well, and I will protect them as best as I can."
"It's not that," Shiller said. "Soone ca here before you, infiltrated Lisa's dream, and he might have tried to hypnotize Lisa."
Gaia was stunned as well, she had not encountered this situation before. Today was the day she and Shiller had agreed to co and give Lisa so general knowledge, since the Child of Order that Gaia was carrying was different from normal children. But Lisa and Aux were re humans, the two of them needed so preparation, at least ntally.
Unexpectedly, their matter hadn't even started when it was interrupted. Shiller seed to think of sothing and told Gaia, "No, we can't start now, we must figure out what's going on here first."
Gaia sighed and said, "We don't have much ti, the Child of Chaos is growing, it will still beco imbalanced if it's too late."
"Give a few more days," Shiller said. "This matter isn't as simple as it seems, you might get trapped here too, better be cautious."
After leaving Lisa's Psychic Space, Lisa soon woke up and appeared sowhat bewildered, yet no matter how Shiller inquired, she could not rember seeing anyone else in the Dream space.
Okay, it seed like a difficult fellow to deal with, but Greed never played the ga by the rules; he directly took out his phone and said, "Charles, co over now, yes, imdiately, I need you to check soone's mory."
Then he tightly grasped Lisa's hands and said, "I'm really sorry, ma'am, but you must face those blue eyes again."
Charles arrived quickly and upon seeing Lisa, he, too, felt his breath catch, clearly it was also his psychological shadow. Lisa didn't show any clear reaction, she didn't rember what Charles had done to her at all, all the truth was heard from Shiller about this blue-eyed young man.
Shiller explained to Charles what had just happened; he asked Charles to focus and find that mory fragnt. Charles closed his eyes, and about half a minute later, he opened his eyes and said, "A fragnt of mory has been deleted."
"Is it the part before I entered the Psychic Space?"
"I'm afraid so. He took the mory, using a rather crude and simple thod."
"Can you figure out who it was?"
"I... am not quite sure," Charles said hesitantly. "I suggest you consult an older version of ."
Shiller had no choice but to call the elder Professor X. Seeing the situation, Aux also got a bit panicked, so Charles had to calm him down first.
Professor X soon ca, and, unsurprisingly, Magneto followed him. Professor X wheeled over to Lisa and his eyes opened and shut in a shorter interval this ti, roughly just a few seconds.
"The other party is not human," Professor X concluded. "His cognition of mories is different from humans, hence the thod of interception is also different, which is evident from the cut itself; at least, no psychic like would do it, it's too crude."
"Thus ruling out the possibility of you from other universes."
"And ruling out the possibility of a mutant mind reader as well," Professor X said. "The human approach is utterly different; unless it's a natural Psychic Entity, no such trace can be left."
"Incubus..." Shiller rarely displayed his knowledge beyond this world as directly as he did then, but now he was sowhat angered.
"Professor, please have a look at this gentleman," he then turned his head towards Aux. Charles closed his eyes again for a few seconds and then said, "He's the sa; his mory has been altered, so things deleted."
"Such as?"
"Deleted, I can't see them," Professor X said. "Another part has been modified... sothing about a window."
Shiller imdiately rembered the window that Aux had described, which was supposed to exist but which he could not see; his cognition had been altered.
Just like DC has a Kingdom of Dreams, Marvel also has a Dinsion of Dreams, and the master of this dinsion is called Incubus, whose ability is to pull people into his dinsion and even move through countless dreams, hypnotizing or altering their mories.
But the problem now was, how many people had he actually altered?
