Chapter 1799: Journey of a Madman (Part 12)

~11 min read 2,164 words

Three minutes later, Spider-Man, standing on the roof of a shop nearby, saw the wreckage of the flash mob artist's activity. The reason it was wreckage was that the props arranged around it had been completely destroyed by the flash mob artists and enthusiasts who had turned into zombies.

Instantly, Spider-Man's gaze locked onto a shining object under a collapsed shelf. That should be a lens fragment, which meant the camera must be not far away.

But after searching every inch of the ground around the fragments carefully, he didn't see any machine that looked like a camera. Just then, a zombie wearing a jacket turned its body, and a bloody camera was stuck in its chest.

It seemed that during the process of fleeing, it had fallen, the camera lens hit the ground and shattered, and a corner of the camera was stuck in its chest, but soon it was bitten by a zombie, so its tenacious vitality kept it from dying.

But the tricky part was that there were several other zombies around this zombie. Either jump down and beat them all up to grab it, or use a clever method.

Just then, Spider-Man's gaze fell on a sewer entrance not far from this group of zombies.

Two minutes later, a pair of red and blue hands reached out from the sewer entrance like an evil ghost, grabbing a zombie's ankle tightly, and "whooshed" it into the sewer.

Spider-Man endured the nausea, used a stone in the sewer to smash the zombie's head to pieces, and broke its spine, before he could free up his hands to dig out the camera.

The smart camera didn't have film, so Spider-Man could only hope that the preview screen not lighting up meant it was out of power. He climbed out of the sewer, solved the two zombies in the coffee shop, and found a way to charge the camera.

The moment he saw the boot screen, Spider-Man breathed a sigh of relief. He toggled the buttons on the camera and indeed found many photos in the camera.

The scene was actually very chaotic, because not long after the unidentified falling object fell, the Avengers rushed up, and then they were transformed into zombies, and the ordinary people around suffered.

But the good thing about this zombie virus was that it could only spread through biting, not through the air like in some games and movies. So, although the Avengers heroes were transformed into zombies, they still needed a certain amount of time to bite everyone around them, and some ordinary people ran out.

In the lens of this flash mob team enthusiast, a photo was taken of one of their companions fleeing in panic and disappearing at the end of the street corner. Spider-Man thought this might be the contributor of the photos in major media newspapers.

Continuing to flip forward, Spider-Man finally saw the true face of the thing that fell from the sky in the corner of a photo—Zombie Sentry.

It cruelly infected all the Avengers members who came here. Spider-Man flipped through almost all the scenes of the heroes being infected, but in one of the photos, he discovered an imperceptible detail.

That was a photo of Wasp being bitten on the neck by Sentry, but in the background of this photo, there was a small spaceship in the distant sky.

Spider-Man zoomed in and zoomed in on the photo, and finally saw the Wakanda logo on the side of the spaceship.

Black Panther also came? But why was he just watching?

Spider-Man instinctively felt something was wrong. He believed this was an extremely important clue.

Did Black Panther finally come down? If he didn't come down and just flew away in the spaceship, then would the zombies, who were starving crazy, chase him? If the zombies didn't chase, then was it possible he survived?

Spider-Man believed he had grasped the key. He had to go and see where the Wakanda spaceship appeared.

According to the triangulation method, Spider-Man judged that Black Panther's spaceship was approximately above New York's Times Square, and that was a hell-difficulty dungeon full of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

But no matter what, Spider-Man still took the camera and headed toward New York's Times Square, and he didn't notice that Helen's thoughts had been sunk in her own consciousness world, and her expression also looked thoughtful.

Stark and Schiller walked all the way toward the bottom of Stark Tower. They encountered several monsters on the way, which were basically all defeated by Schiller. Except for the annoying ghost harassment, they didn't cause too much trouble for the two.

But Stark's physical fitness was, after all, that of an ordinary person, and he had been injured in the brawl with Schiller before. He felt he should stop to rest for a while, use clean water to clean the wound to avoid infection, and it would be best to bandage it.

The floors around the 40th floor of Stark Tower were still research facilities, but the confidentiality and security levels weren't that high. Perhaps it was also because no one was needed to destroy the data, so they didn't encounter any particularly powerful zombies again.

Stark knew this was their last chance for supplies, because below the 40th floor was the employee office area, which was definitely densely packed with a pile of zombies. Stark was thinking about whether to find a way to skip this section of the road.

They found a laboratory at random, solved the monster entrenched inside, and Stark washed his face by the sink, cleaning all the blood on his head and arms.

He looked at Schiller. Schiller shook his head, letting the sticky blood stick to his forehead. Stark was helpless. He looked left and right, found a pack of tissues from the drawer of the daily necessities cabinet, dipped it in water, and started to wipe the blood off Schiller's face.

He was facing Schiller, so he could see the situation of the wall behind Schiller. Just as he was wiping Schiller's face, Stark suddenly discovered a blinking red dot on that wall.

He had been somewhat numb from seeing ghosts before, so he instinctively took this as a supernatural phenomenon. But hit by the cold water of washing his face, his thinking recovered some sanity. He discovered that the red dot blinked very regularly, not like something a ghost could create, but more like electronic equipment.

Stark recalled the structure of Stark Tower and remembered that it seemed every laboratory was equipped with a communicator, which was for emergency contact when laboratory accidents occurred.

Because it was to deal with emergency situations, every communicator had an independent power supply, so even if most of the lighting systems and power systems were cut off now, the emergency communicator still had power.

Stark didn't want to care at first, because he could guess that the emergency communicator probably had evacuation notices, but that red dot kept blinking, which made him very annoyed.

Stark had a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. After throwing away the tissue in his hand, he walked toward the communicator, pressed the mute button first to prevent making noise and attracting zombies, and only then pressed the answer button.

But to his shock, what appeared on the communicator was Black Panther's face.

"This is an emergency communication sent to Stark Tower. I am the King of Wakanda, Black Panther..."

"Tony! Tony! Pick up the phone!!!"

Black Panther in the screen appeared very anxious. He said quickly, "When I was giving a charity speech in Times Square, I saw the Avengers members turn into zombies in New York's Central Park, and I couldn't get through to your phone, and Jarvis didn't respond to me."

"If you already know this news, please hurry up and think of a way to stop them! I can see that group of zombies charging this way. There are many people in the square now, I have to go down to evacuate the crowd..."

After a "crackle" sound, the communication hung up. Stark pressed the buttons a few times, but there was no response in the emergency communication equipment. Clearly, this was a long-outdated message. Stark hammered the wall hard and sighed.

He and Black Panther had a good relationship. They were very rare in that they were very compatible from temper to wisdom. And judging from the communication content, Black Panther must have gone down to evacuate the public and met with misfortune.

Just as Stark turned around with slight sadness, the faint current sound coming from the communicator made his brows suddenly frown.

He turned his head suddenly, staring tightly at the blinking red dot of the communicator. He suddenly remembered, this was Stark Tower's emergency communication equipment, how could there be noise from an ordinary radio?

Stark stared at the communication equipment, and then saw from the blinking screen that this was actually another communication, but it was filmed in a completely dark environment, and the person didn't speak, only the noise from the environment, so it sounded like the radio noise left after the communication hung up.

Stark immediately rubbed his wet hands on his clothes. He looked around, wanting to find something. Schiller took a screwdriver out of his pocket and handed it to him.

Stark's eyes widened, and then he read the meaning of "actually I wanted to use this thing to stab you" from Schiller's gaze. He felt a bit terrified, but he couldn't care about that much now.

There were actually no screws on Stark Industries' products, but Stark knew where to pry it open, but this was actually very laborious. Finally, Schiller pried the shell open.

Stark busied himself inside for a long time, called up the records of the emergency communication equipment, and then he discovered that the last communication record consistent with the communication equipment from Black Panther he heard was from about twenty minutes ago.

"T'Challa is still alive, he is still alive! I mean, it is very likely that he hasn't turned into a zombie!!"

Before Schiller could speak, Stark, as if explaining to himself, said quickly, "Stark Tower has had an accident for so long, and Iron Man hasn't come back, which means he is very likely to have turned into that group of hungry monsters, busy eating and having no time to come back to check."

"It is known that Iron Man has turned into a zombie, so if Black Panther has also turned into a zombie, they are in cahoots. Black Panther doesn't need to use this method to contact Iron Man at all; he can just go find him in person or make a phone call."

"But if Black Panther just hid and didn't turn into a zombie, then he can't be sure whether Iron Man has turned into a zombie, so he is very likely trying to find a way to contact Iron Man."

"But he is worried that Iron Man has turned into a zombie, so he can't say it clearly, just using this method to hint, because if Iron Man has turned into a zombie, although he might retain intelligence, he will definitely be affected by appetite and won't think deeply about the final noise. Only a sober Iron Man can notice this point."

"There is another possibility." Schiller said, "He has been forced to the end of his rope, and can't even speak, can only use his hand to press the replay button on the communication equipment."

Stark stared straight at him.

"You know something, don't you?" Stark walked slowly to Schiller and said, "I don't mean your outsider's ability to know the future. Regarding the situation in this world, you know some other information!"

Greed in the Tower of Thought sighed, lay on the railing, and sighed, "I knew I couldn't hide it from him."

On the roof of a building in New York's Times Square, Spider-Man looked at the small Wakanda spaceship that landed in front of him and sighed. The spaceship didn't crash, which meant the Wakanda group went down voluntarily.

Spider-Man guessed that it might be that the Wakanda group, who were holding an event in Times Square, discovered the disturbance in New York's Central Park, so they took the initiative to go down to evacuate the crowd, but were infected and wiped out by the Avengers zombies who arrived.

Although so, Spider-Man still decided to board the Wakanda spaceship. In this situation, the significance of having a spaceship was self-evident. Spider-Man had also visited it before, so he was confident he could start the spaceship.

What made Spider-Man a bit strange was that the door of the spaceship wasn't closed, and he and Helen walked into the interior of the spaceship very easily.

The next second, Spider-Man's pupils shrank.

On the wall of the spaceship hall was written a line of blood-red large characters—

"THISISNOTTHEFIRSTTIME." ===== CHAPTER 1800 =====
