American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

Pietro runs through the monastery.

He could feel that his destination was getting closer, and the evidence was that the voice that was always like a devil's whisper in his ears became more and more harsh.

The nauseating feeling was also difficult for him to suppress, which involuntarily slowed down Pietro's running speed. Finally, he stopped, holding on to the wall beside him and taking a deep breath.

"Ha-huh, ha-huh"

Like a drowning man being rescued, Kuaiyin breathed in the air greedily. He was unwilling to experience it again in his life. Just now he felt that if he didn't stop, he would spit it out.

Forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his stomach, Pietro knew that he was not in a safe position.

"It looks like this is it." Looking up, a wellhead blocked by iron chains came into view. According to the map of the orphanage in memory, this should be the backyard of the orphanage, located in the southwest of the entire building complex, and to the west is In the direction of the monastery, there is a mountain forest to the south, and generally no one will come here.

After groping to the entrance of the well, Pietro couldn't help but feel a beat in his heart. He looked around and saw fallen leaves all around, which seemed extremely desolate. Several broken stone statues stood on the ground. The breeze blew by, which made Pietro endure. I couldn't help but shiver.

"Damn, I really regret it. Zhang Yi didn't tell me that this place was so scary when I came here."

After muttering a few words, Pietro spat on the ground, and then seemed to have made up his mind. He used his right hand that shook at high speed to cut off the iron chain at the wellhead, and then jumped directly.

The wellhead and inner wall are quite large, enough to accommodate four people. Pietro continued to fall in a weightless state. At this speed, a normal person would be thrown into a puddle of meat the moment he touched the bottom of the well, but this Pietro couldn't help it. When he was at high speed, he could freely control the speed of his fall.

Soon, Pietro's feet touched the inner wall and landed perfectly at the bottom of the well.

"It seems that Zhang Ye is right. How can a normal welfare home spend so much money? I'm afraid most of the money has been invested in the construction of these underground facilities."

Touching the wall of the corridor, Pietro frowned. It was hard to imagine what Emma's purpose was, and the missing children. This orphanage was obviously not as good as the newspapers boasted, and there might be something unknown inside. fear.

But this didn't have much to do with him. Pietro just wanted to get the helmet Zhang Yi mentioned as quickly as possible, and then leave this place that made him feel uncomfortable.

With one hand on the ground, Pietro arched his body and made preparations for running. The next moment, his figure disappeared instantly.

To be honest, Pietro's speed is now so fast that it is difficult to detect with the naked eye, but this is not his full speed. On the contrary, Pietro's speed at this time is not as fast as when he was running.

As a speedster, swinging the arms is the key to maintaining balance when running. Humans have abandoned the tail during evolution because they can better control balance with their arms. In the state of a speedster, the arms are more is crucial.

But after losing his right arm, Pietro could no longer run so fast. First, it was not easy to master the balance. If he fell at high speed, it would be a terrible thing. The second reason was the lack of arm swing support. , it is also difficult to increase his speed.

However, the burden on Pietro's heart was particularly heavy due to running too fast before. Pietro once suspected that if he continued to run at that speed, one day his heart would be overwhelmed and explode.

And now, Pietro can no longer run that fast. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Although the corridor under the orphanage was deep, with Kuaiyin's speed, he quickly passed through it and came to a more open place.

Suddenly, Pietro felt a tingling sensation in his mind, as if his brain had been stabbed with a needle. Pietro immediately covered his head and braked suddenly, almost hitting the wall.

Slowly opening his eyes, Pietro felt like there were stars in his eyes. He shook his head violently, suppressing the nausea in his stomach and the dizziness in his mind, trying to make himself more awake.

Apparently he had forgotten that he had already arrived at the source of those spiritual energies. Running here at high speed, his brain would become the target of the impact of those spiritual energies.

After Pietro calmed down, he began to observe the environment he was in. The smell of blood in the air made Pietro's hair stand on end, and he was ready to escape from this place at any time.

"What the hell is this place?" Pietro didn't dare to speak loudly. He looked around and saw that he was in the passage of an extremely dark building, like a prison. There were rooms every two meters on both sides of the passage. This made Pietro remembered the mutant prison he was in before.

Pietro tiptoed to the door of a room, which was a door made of steel plates. There were several iron pillars erected on the door window. Pietro stood on tiptoe and looked inside through the gaps between the iron pillars.

Inside the iron gate is a rectangular room of less than seven square meters. There is only a small bed in the room. Sitting on the bed is a child who looks to be only four or five years old. However, her back is to Pietro, and Pietro cannot see. to her face.

After hesitating for a while, Pietro finally gave up the idea of ​​communicating with the child inside. In such a terrifying environment, Pietro didn't want to attract anyone's attention, not to mention that the child inside with his back turned to him was too scary. What should I do if I give myself a 'turn back and kill'?

He has only one target, and that is the helmet that Zhang Yi mentioned. As for what Emma did here, and the life and death of these children, what does it have to do with him?

Thinking of this, Pietro turned around and prepared to leave.

And when Pietro turned around, he suddenly stopped in place. He seemed to be greatly frightened, his eyes widened, and he looked ahead in disbelief.

I saw a woman appearing at the entrance of the passage at some point, staring at Pietro quietly.

No one knew when this woman appeared, and Pietro didn't know how long she had been watching him here. To be honest, when Pietro discovered her, his heart almost jumped out.

It was a woman with white hair and a beautiful face. At this time, she was looking at Pietro meaningfully, and Pietro instantly recognized her identity - it was this orphanage. 's builder, Emma Frost.

"I didn't expect that a little mouse broke in. It seems that I have really slacked off these years." Emma licked her lips, her voice sounded like a lark, but in Pietro's ears, the sound sounded more like It is the whisper of death.

"Aren't you supposed to be being interviewed?" Pietro said and was about to escape from here immediately, but when he was about to speed up, the pain like needles made him scream out.

Holding his head, Pietro felt like he had a splitting headache. In this situation, let alone using his high-speed ability, he might not even be able to resist even the most basic thing.

"Hmph. You don't think I haven't noticed you, do you? My children have noticed your presence since you entered my territory. Quick ones are really rare." Emma spoke slowly. She said, and as she spoke, two girls of four or five years old walked out from behind her.

"Are they also telepaths?" Pietro asked, holding back the pain.

The little girl next to Emma had no expression on her face, her pupils were turning upwards, leaving only the terrifying whites of her eyes. No one could believe that this age, which should have been full of joy, now looked like two people who had been spoiled. doll.

"What on earth did you do!?" Pietro gritted his teeth and roared angrily.

"I have done something that even the Creator cannot do!" Emma's eyes widened and she grinned. Her ferocious facial features tore her beautiful face apart. She stroked the heads of the two girls and then continued.

"This world is about to face a catastrophe. Only mutants can survive. I am just letting those humble species complete their evolution, just like the church I created, the new generation church! Everything is for the sake of our next generation. .”

As she spoke, Emma leaned down and nuzzled one of the little girls with her cheek. "Look, what a beautiful work, what a flawless creation."
