American Comics: BOSS Invasion

The vortex appeared at irregular times and in unpredictable locations.

Not only did it appear for a very short time each instance, but it was also silent and difficult to detect.

Simmons didn't know how long it took to arrive, but the return journey took a full six hours.

Along the way, Simmons, filled with hope, focused more of her attention on the various plants underfoot.

She not only harvested some grape-like mushrooms, but also a plant that looked very much like a pouch.

Qi Shan used the pouch plant to get water for Simmons twice.

Each time he saw the shadow bat grabbing the pouch plant and flying into the distance, Simmons felt very fortunate.

"This is where I appeared. I must have been thrown out and rolled on the ground!"

Walking to the triangular arrow made of stones, Simmons squatted down and took out a metal pendant from under a stone. She looked at it in her hand, then gently hung it back around her neck.

"Is it important?" Qi Shan asked.

"It was a gift from someone important!"

Simmons raised her face: "We lack tools right now, so we can only use the most basic method to find the vortex.

I believe that since this is where it first appeared, the next appearance will not be too far away.

I'll observe this direction, and you observe the other direction. If you notice anything unusual, immediately notify the other."

Qi Shan nodded: "Okay, but the timing..."

"This is the only way for now!" Simmons said.

Since the decision was made, Qi Shan didn't say anything more.

In fact, this method proved to be unreliable.

Simmons had been here for three days before, and the vortex hadn't reappeared.

Clearly, the other side hadn't figured out how to activate this thing.

However, the two weren't in a hurry. Qi Shan didn't need to eat, and the slight hunger, although a little uncomfortable, wasn't worth mentioning.

In the following days, Simmons had her eyes opened.

She couldn't understand how someone could actually survive without eating. Did he eat the law of conservation of energy?

How did he do it?

During their idle chats, they gradually transitioned from the unique civilizations of their respective worlds to personal matters, and then to different powers.

Simmons enthusiastically introduced the developments brought about by technology.

Qi Shan casually mentioned some famous ninjas and ninjutsu with peculiar effects.

Of course, he didn't leave out chakra, the foundation of power.

In fact, even though Qi Shan could feel a stream of energy flowing within his body every day, he still couldn't convert it into chakra using the chakra refinement method.

After returning to his original body, trying to cultivate chakra out of thin air would be like a fool's dream.

Even in the Naruto world, there were still barriers to entry for learning ninjutsu.

The number of people in the ninja villages wasn't large. Even the so-called largest ninja village of the Five Great Nations probably didn't have more than 50,000 ninjas.

He remembered that during the Fourth Great Ninja War, the Five Great Ninja Villages mustered an army of 100,000 ninjas.

Even if each village mobilized 20,000 people, adding the reserve forces, defense forces, and those who were too young, school students, and the older generation of ninjas left in the village, the number wouldn't exceed 30,000.

Therefore, Qi Shan didn't mind the little girl exploring his secrets.

Jotunheim was too desolate, without even a ghost. The hope of completing this descent mission was in Simmons's hands.

Moreover, Qi Shan was quite interested in the Marvel movie world that hadn't altered the timeline.

In the main world, S.H.I.E.L.D. had already been defeated by H.Y.D.R.A..

In this world, it seemed to still exist.

If calculated according to the timeline of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., they should have just experienced the Hydra uprising and the Inhuman incident, and were now being overwhelmed by Hive, the spiritual symbol of Hydra.

Moreover, this parasitic group with human will seemed to be in Jotunheim.

He hadn't paid attention before, but now that he thought about it, the black sandstorm did seem to be chasing after Qi Shan.

Each time he escaped the range of the black sandstorm, it wouldn't be long before an even bigger black sandstorm would rise up and chase after him relentlessly.

Hidan wasn't a sensory ninja, so he didn't notice the danger hidden in the black sandstorm.

He just didn't want to be buried in the black sandstorm. Every time he saw this thing forming from afar, he would use Shadow Shift to leave in advance.

Qi Shan was quite skilled at using Shadow Shift.

He ran all the way, and the black sandstorm chased him to death, but not a grain of sand landed on Qi Shan's body.

The days passed, and the two went from being excited at first meeting to gradually calmly chatting with each other.

Now, Simmons prepared her own food, and Qi Shan helped her provide water.

Sometimes, relying on the power of a ninja, he would also search nearby and bring back some dry branches to build a huge bonfire.

This world didn't have a sun, and the light was always very dim.

With the fire burning in front of them, in addition to bringing warmth, it also seemed to calm Simmons's mind.

Fire always represents hope.

Half a month passed in a year, and just as Simmons was about to eat all the plants and animals in the pool.

Suddenly, a black vortex appeared on the rocky hillside a few hundred meters away.

Simmons was explosively eating a thorny thing that looked like a rotten durian when she suddenly opened her eyes wide and her hand shook, dropping the food directly on the ground.

"Look, Hidan, look, the vortex has appeared!"

Simmons shouted excitedly and rushed towards the vortex without saying a word.

Qi Shan didn't dare to neglect, he exerted force with his legs, and his whole body jumped up like a grasshopper. With just one leap, he caught up with Simmons.

Then he picked her up by the waist, exerted force under his feet, and two small spider webs appeared neatly on the ground.

Qi Shan shot out like a cannonball, drawing a small parabola in the air, and plunged straight into the vortex.

The two disappeared one after another, and the vortex disappeared again.

A strong wind roared past, causing the standing bonfire to rustle.

Behind a hillside, a head slowly stretched out. His gaze immediately focused on the bonfire, his eyes filled with shock.

But after a few seconds of愣, he didn't choose to approach, but instead retreated silently.

He took out a homemade small periscope from his arms, lay firmly on the ground, stretched the lens up, and observed motionless.

If Qi Shan was there, he would have said.

Will, sorry, you're late!
