Infinite Metaverse

The fleeting light and shadow changes outside the carriage window.

Fu Qinghai noticed the change in position.

"Has the magic secret door been activated?"

The purple giant turned around and looked around.

He stood up and handed Bando Philosopher to Qing Ming to continue blasting the hammer, and the purple substance retracted into his body. Fu Qinghai felt something and turned his head to look at the door. The side door of the subway car automatically slid open to both sides, and a little black girl with a shaggy hair appeared outside the door.

The girl was horrified when she saw the scene in the car.

Open your mouth and shout:

"Sha...ugh!"

Fu Qinghai raised one hand to make a grasping gesture.

Force choke!

The little black girl's mouth was wide open. Her neck, throat, and even tongue seemed to be firmly locked by some invisible force, making her unable to move or make any sound. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't blurt out the word "Shazam."

Can't say "Shazam".

She couldn't complete the transformation.

She has always been an ordinary eight-year-old child.

At this moment, Fu Qinghai wished that Zhang Yuning was here. After all, Force Throat can only control one object, and "Tongue Pulling" and "Dead Silence" are Mary Xiao's signature skills. If the Queen of Wraiths were in this cave, , no one in the entire Shazam family can even think of shouting the word "Shazam" to complete the transformation.

Fu Qinghai did not kill her, otherwise the girl would have been completely suffocated by the power of the Force's chokehold. He just controlled Du Deli from shouting out that word to complete the transformation, then raised his other hand and stretched out to Qing Ming, saying:

"Crystal of True Knowledge."

Qing Ming stopped blasting Bandō Tetsuto, stood up, returned to his seat, picked up a backpack, took out a blue-gray crystal ball with an emerald base, and threw it directly to Fu Qinghai.

Fu Qinghai caught it steadily, pressed his palm on the surface of the crystal sphere, and there was a "boom" in his mind. In an instant, he was connected to Chen Xinlu who was far away in the suburbs of Star City.

Both parties share thoughts and visions.

Chen Xinlu saw the scene outside the carriage.

"Sizzsssssssssss..."

Soon a ring of fire spun out of thin air.

Chen Xinxue and Chen Xinlu stepped out of the dimension door.

The two of them were considered to have rich fighting experience, and they could figure out the situation at a glance: Fu Qinghai was controlling the little girl with one hand, and holding the True Knowledge Crystal with the other hand, while Qing Ming was holding half of the car door with one hand and facing the ground. A flaming skeleton kept smashing, and the skeleton was constantly broken and then reorganized.

Compared with other superheroes in the Marvel multiverse, Ghost Rider's physical fitness is actually not very strong. He mainly relies on hellfire and immortality to gain a foothold in Marvel. Hellfire's attribute that burns the body and directly strikes the soul is particularly difficult to deal with, including many skills extended by it, such as the Eye of Judgment and enchanted weapons - but Qing Ming happens to have no soul, so Hellfire is the It's just an ordinary flame with a relatively high temperature.

"Leave Du Deli to me."

Fu Qinghai turned around and said:

"You guys get rid of the Ghost Rider."

Ghost Rider?

Chen Xinxue looked at the flaming skull on the ground.

"I see."

The beautiful lady nodded with sharp eyes and said solemnly.

The two sisters looked at each other and waved their hands at the same time. Golden-red sparks collided and splashed in the air. Chen Xinxue held a complex disk, and Chen Xinlu held a magic secret fan. They stood on either side of Bando Philosopher, murmuring words and began to cast spells continuously. Then the blazing flames on Bando Philosopher's body began to flicker and twist wildly, and the red devil skeleton opened its jaws and let out a miserable scream - this kind of scream had not come out just now when the master and servant took turns beating him!

Start with Bando Tetsuto's legs.

The fire of hell faded upward little by little.

The bones wrapped in flames turned into flesh and blood.

"Ahhhhh!"

Bandō Tetsuto's screams became more intense.

The spirit of vengeance is being forcibly stripped from his body.

In essence, Ghost Rider is a kind of possessed warrior. The spirit of vengeance gives the human host immortality. It is the spirit of vengeance, not the host, that is truly immortal. It is said that only God can destroy the spirit of vengeance. However, certain targeted magic or props can cause substantial harm to the Ghost Rider or cause the spirit of vengeance to escape its host, such as: Randekiel's sacred weapon made of Heavenly Paving Stone bricks, the Hand's black magic and Mephisto's spell and more.

The Supreme Mage School is an expert in soul out-of-body experiences. In the movie, Ancient One took Dr. Banner's soul out of the Hulk's body with a single palm. Although Chen Xinxue and Chen Xinlu were not as powerful as their master Gu Yi, and the binding between the spirit of vengeance and the human host was also very strong, they still managed to forcefully extract the spirit of vengeance from Philosopher Bando's body after they worked together to cast spells. . According to the description in the comics, this separation will have extremely disastrous consequences for the host.

Finally, after the unremitting efforts of the two sisters.

The fire of hell left Philosopher Bando's body.

"Got it."

Chen Xinxue said excitedly.

A twisted and beating flame was surrounded by countless golden-red translucent secret talismans in the air. The flames rushed left and right but still could not break through the surrounding talismans. They were also retracted bit by bit by the talismans to squeeze the space for movement.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on this flame, thinking that this was the legendary "Spirit of Vengeance", the thing that gave the Ghost Rider immortality.

As for Philosopher Bando, no one is paying attention to him anymore. After being freed from the spirit of vengeance, this guy died suddenly on the spot and turned into a pile of broken and rotten flesh. He was too dead to die.

"Qingshan, we can only temporarily trap the spirit of revenge, but we can't completely eliminate it. You have to find a way!"

Chen Xinlu reminded in a deep voice.

"Uh, think of a way, think of a way...Um, who among you wants to be the Ghost Rider?"

Fu Qinghai looked at the two sisters and asked.

The two sisters shook their heads at the same time.

Ghost Rider is a curse.

After becoming the host of the spirit of vengeance, you have to face the influence of the spirit of vengeance on your personality every day, and your spirit is tortured to the point of collapse. If your will is not strong enough, the host's consciousness may be swallowed and burned by the spirit of vengeance. Not only that, the wives, children, relatives and friends around the Ghost Rider will be implicated in the curse and encounter various misfortunes, so they are destined to live a lonely life, and this curse is usually passed down from generation to generation and cannot be shaken off.

Fu Qinghai doesn’t want to become a Ghost Rider either.

Ghost Rider is positioned as a tragic hero.

Not a comic hero like Shazam.

"Let me think...wait!"

Fu Qinghai had an idea:

"I have an idea."

Fu Qinghai ignored the anger in the little black girl's eyes and forced a ball of towel into her mouth, then tied it with sealing tape and tied her aside.

Then he opened his white suitcase of space equipment and took out a spindle-shaped cylindrical device. After checking it, he held the device and asked the two sisters:

"Try to see if the ghost trap works."

This is the first time Fu Qinghai has used a ghost trap, because the battle group did not have the need to contain ghosts before - he is not the Thousand Sons Legion who likes to play with things called "guardian elves" that are actually "demon". It's not like Chaos Space Marines need to mass-produce enchanted warriors. Even if he captures subspace creatures or subspace demons, he doesn't know how to use them, but now he just has a chance to try this equipment.

"Then try it."

Chen Xinxue nodded.

Fu Qinghai opened the ghost trap and opened two panels in the center of the cylindrical device to reveal a hollow. Chen Xinxue and Chen Xinlu controlled the Spirit of Vengeance to move there through the air. A arresting beam of light burst out in the cavity and then sucked the Spirit of Vengeance in, and the two boards closed inward. Everything went smoothly without any accidents - according to the plot in the movie, even the god Gozel and his gatekeeper believed by the Sumerians were locked in, which shows that this device is very reliable.

I haven’t entered the Rock of Eternity yet.

A vengeful spirit has been harvested.

Although I don't know where to use it yet.

"So……"

Fu Qinghai looked around:

"Start exploring the Rock of Eternity now?"

"uh-huh."

Chen Xinxue nodded.

Bandō Tetsuto is dead, Qingming is holding the little black girl tied into a rice dumpling with one hand, Fu Qinghai and the two sisters step out of the carriage onto the platform, and then walk into the legendary Rock of Eternity - which looks like a Ordinary cave.

When everyone walked into the cave, they found it unexpectedly vast and spacious, and did not seem cramped. The first thing that caught the eye was a long and huge stone table with various magic scrolls piled on it. The most eye-catching one was an upright violin burning in the flames.

"Nero's Violin."

Fu Qinghai said the name of this magic prop.

"Well?"

Du Deli, who was being carried by Qing Ming, looked at him in surprise.

"Is this some kind of artifact?"

Chen Xinlu asked curiously.

"It's named after Nero, the fifth emperor of the Roman Empire, who is said to have stood on the city walls and played the violin while the capital Rome was engulfed in flames."

Fu Qinghai explained some historical allusions:

"As for the function of this violin... it has no function. It just keeps burning and never goes out. It can be used as a permanent lighting fixture."

Chen Xinlu looked at Fu Qinghai with bright eyes.

I thought: He knows a lot.

"It just depends on how many assimilation points are needed."

Chen Xinxue shrugged and commented:

"It feels good to use as a magic lamp to decorate my sanctum sanctorum. If it requires too many assimilation points, it's not worth it."

Only then did Fu Qinghai remember that Chen Xinxue was in charge of a magical sanctuary - the person in charge of the Xiangjiang Magical Sanctuary in the Marvel (Earth-616) universe. He could be respectfully called "Master Chen Xinxue" woman.

Compared to the magic violin, the two women were obviously more interested in the magic scrolls on the table. Regardless of whether they understood it or not, they opened a dimensional door and kept pulling in. The whole style was very arrogant. .

"Well!"

The little black girl's eyes widened in anger.

"what?"

Fu Qinghai looked at her sideways:

"These magic scrolls have been here for a long time. Do you five understand a few words? Have you researched any magic skills? These things are a waste if left to you. Only when they are put into the hands of people who truly understand magic can they be used to their full potential. Do you understand the role and value of sex, kid?”

Classic bandit logic from the British Museum.

It's just that Fu Qinghai was right. The Shazam family has had the Rock of Eternity as their base for a long time. With so many magic secret scrolls placed here, the six children have not developed any new magic skills or The moves, back and forth, are the same as those of Shazam.

It shows that they really have no magic talent.

Just like Qingshan Khan himself.

Finished sweeping away the magic scrolls on the stone table.

The four of them began to browse other items.

A magic pen engraved with complex patterns.

"Oh I know that."

Chen Xinlu pointed at the pen and said in surprise:

"It's called 'Steve', a magic pen that's equivalent to an intelligent voice-to-text conversion tool."

"Smart ass... can't tell what to write and what not to write on its own. It's as stupid as ChatGPT."

Chen Xinxue rolled her eyes and complained.

However, the pen actually understood their conversation, stood upright in the air, and began to write automatically:

"You are very rude."

Everyone ignored its protest and continued to sweep towards other items: a small Egyptian-style golden metal wand, with a hollow cup-shaped end at the end and a pointed-beaked bird carved inside. Chen Xinlu fell in love with this staff at first sight. Chen Xinxue already had the Ten Commandments, but she didn't have her own exclusive magic item yet. Although the Supreme Mage School only needs to wear a hanging ring to cast spells, but who would think that they have too much equipment?

"What's this?"

Chen Xinlu picked up the staff.

"I have no idea."

Fu Qinghai shook his head honestly.

"I haven't seen it either."

Chen Xinxue said she didn’t know.

At this time, Fu Qinghai suddenly saw a round floor-to-ceiling mirror next to the stone table. Recalling a plot from a movie or a comic, he pointed at the mirror and said:

"I have an impression of this magic mirror. There seems to be a woman in it. She will guide Shazam in learning magic. Why not ask this woman if she knows the functions of these items..."

Before he finished speaking, a woman's figure automatically appeared in the mirror. This woman's body was silvery white as if she were made entirely of mercury. She looked at Fu Qinghai and said coldly:

"You are right, intruder, but I will only provide guidance to the heir to the power of Shazam."

Qing Ming raised an arm when he heard this.

A plasma cannon stretched out from his palm and pointed at her.

"Even if you break me into pieces, you don't want me to succumb to you, you bastards who defiled the Rock of Eternity!"

The silver woman said firmly.

"snort!"

The little black girl let out a triumphant snort.

"Oh, that's not up to you."

Fu Qinghai waved his hand:

"Move everyone!"

Fu Qinghai's idea is: it is a rare trip to the Rock of Eternity. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, everything will be moved away. At the end, we will see how many assimilation points are needed. If it is worth it, we will take it away, and if it is not worth it, we will return it.

It's that simple.

However, as they crossed the stone table and continued deeper into the Rock of Eternity, Fu Qinghai suddenly found that he had thought less: behind the stone table was a huge library, with rows of bookshelves standing in it, and a dazzling array of books.

"Ah? What should we do?"

Chen Xinlu looked at the rows of bookshelves and said distressedly.

"No matter how many points you have, you can't completely assimilate it..."

Chen Xinxue frowned and looked around.

The number of books collected by the ancient wizards in the Rock of Eternity far exceeded everyone's imagination. Seeing this huge magic treasure house in front of them but unable to take it away, the two sisters became anxious. For some reason, they suddenly looked at Fu Qinghai. .

"Well...I have an idea."

Fu Qinghai pondered for a moment and then said:

"I asked Qing Ming to quickly browse all the books here. She can record the contents of the books, including the pictures, word for word, and then return to the anchor world for perfect restoration. This way, she does not need to consume any assimilation points."

About how to take away intangible knowledge.

Fu Qinghai is very experienced.

"good idea."

The two sisters' eyes lit up.

As expected, Qingshan always has a way.

Qing Ming put down the girl in his hand, walked to the bookshelf, pulled out the books one by one, and started flipping through the records quickly. His movements were so fast that afterimages appeared. He scanned the row of bookshelves in a few minutes. It was like a computer. Humanoid scanner.

While Qing Ming was busy, Fu Qinghai mentioned the little black girl and walked towards the back through the rows of bookshelves. A long passage appeared here, the light was a bit eerie and dim, with a row of stone statues standing on both sides of the passage, all of them hideous, terrifying and strange.

Fu Qinghai counted seven in total.

"Uh-huh!"

The little black girl shook her head desperately.

And twisted and struggled from side to side.

"What do you mean? Tell me not to touch them?"

Fu Qinghai lowered his head and asked.

"Uh-huh!"

The little girl nodded vigorously.
