Chapter 1804: Journey of a Madman (Part 17)

~10 min read 1,962 words

Stark didn't know what kind of medicine should be used for the heart disease of the Spider-Man of this universe. He only knew that no matter what, he had to save the person physically first, and then talk about psychological problems. Since so, he couldn't follow Spider-Man's plan.

From Spider-Man's diary, Stark learned that it wasn't that Spider-Man hadn't taken other methods, such as directly finding the transmitter and destroying it, keeping everyone in his own universe, and no one wanting to go to other universes. But this must be done before he turned into a zombie.

Once turned into a zombie, the terrifying hunger would devour all his sanity. And if he wanted to destroy the transmitter, it was inevitable to bump into zombie superheroes. Spider-Man couldn't fight many, and the probability of being infected was extremely high, so he would soon lose his sanity.

But Spider-Man couldn't do it, which didn't mean Stark couldn't. He didn't quite understand how the Iron Man of this universe turned into a zombie. He even felt very incredible about this. He was Iron Man, how on earth did other zombies bite through the armor?

Thinking of this, Stark decided to go to Stark Tower first. Regardless of so much, he would build himself a suit of armor that could be used first.

Stark turned his head to look at Schiller. Schiller also looked at him. Stark rubbed his hands and said: "Well, that, no matter who you are, can you give me a ride?"

A few minutes later, Stark appeared on the roof of Stark Tower. But just as he was about to walk toward the rooftop door, he discovered that the rooftop door was open, as if someone had entered here long ago.

Stark squinted his eyes and walked downstairs cautiously. As soon as he went down to the top floor, he was stunned. It was as if it had been ransacked, and nothing was left.

Zombie Iron Man is preparing to move?

Stark couldn't figure it out, until he saw a familiar tooth mark on some wreckage by the wall.

"Helen? !!!!"

Stark screamed. He looked around, but didn't see his daughter's figure. Then his gaze fell on Schiller's face. Schiller was expressionless, but Stark had already determined that this matter absolutely had something to do with Schiller.

If Helen also came to this world and experienced a reset, would she realize where the problem lay?

Stark wasn't quite sure, but he was more inclined to believe that Helen was also sober, because he had long known that Helen wasn't a product of this universe either, so she was very likely to be unaffected by memory reset like Schiller.

As expected of his daughter, Stark thought somewhat helplessly, just arrived and moved her old father's home away.

But what did Helen loot Stark Tower for? Stark felt a bit puzzled. Although Helen could also build suits, her physical fitness couldn't use any external armor. Did someone come with her?

Couldn't care about that much, Stark continued to search downward. There were still some things Helen didn't move away. As long as there was a little material, Stark could build a powerful full-body armor. Whatever he did next would be easy to handle.

On the green space of New York's Central Park, Helen opened her mouth wide, and piles of experimental equipment and devices were spat out by her. Spider-Man gave her a thumbs up, and then started manufacturing quickly.

They had only withdrawn from Stark Tower ten minutes ago. The reason they chose to move everything there away was because they were worried that the zombie Iron Man of this universe happened to come back.

Helen wasn't afraid of him, nor did she think the zombie virus could infect herself, but it would be troublesome if Spider-Man was bitten. So they chose to avoid the battle.

Helen used her Doomsday advantage and opened her mouth wide to move all the equipment on all experimental floors away.

This Spider-Man had just started his sophomore year, his technology wasn't fully learned, his knowledge accumulation wasn't enough, and he hadn't worked for Nick, so his practical experience was almost equal to zero. Fortunately, Helen didn't go in and out of Stark's laboratory for nothing every day. The two quickly made a full-body protective suit suitable for Spider-Man.

The focus was on protection, because what Spider-Man feared most was being bitten. As long as he could be immune to the zombie virus, his and Helen's combination could be called invincible in the world.

After putting on the suit, Spider-Man felt a little relieved. Compared to death, he was more afraid of becoming that kind of monster completely driven by primitive hunger instinct.

But at this time, Spider-Man felt a bit puzzled. He said while adjusting the suit: "Do you feel something is wrong? In the several resets we had before, have we ever had a head-on confrontation with the zombie superheroes?"

Helen flipped through the previous memories, frowned, and shook her head, saying: "No, we almost didn't even see them."

They realized something was wrong at the same time. Spider-Man said confusedly: "Where are the Avengers? Or rather, where are the zombies?"

Looking around the streets of New York's Central Park, there were only sporadic zombies. Even if there were quite a few zombies in Manhattan on the way, it was still far from the population of New York. What were these zombies busy with?

A black shadow was traveling fast in the dark corridor, rushing through the corridor all the way, rushing down the stairs, and even crashing through the glass to the ground regardless.

But what was chasing behind him wasn't any monster, but just a cold wind, or in the eyes of ordinary people, it was just a cold wind that made people's necks feel cold. But Eddie, who had just landed, could clearly see a giant head with long hair hanging on the window, opening its bloody mouth and grinning evilly at him.

"This universe is really fucking weird." Venom couldn't help but curse: "What on earth is this? Brain wave attack?!"

Eddie swallowed, backed away two steps and said: "Now is not the time to say this. Maybe this universe had a zombie and ghost crisis break out at the same time. Let's run away quickly. It will be troublesome if caught by him."

Eddie turned and ran, but before running two steps, he saw a black monster that looked like a xenomorph and a mothman that was covered in fluff and had moth-like wings on its back fighting into a ball.

Eddie didn't want to waste his strength, could only run in another direction, but there stood a figure in red clothes holding a red umbrella. Eddie knew it was bad as soon as he saw it, could only change direction again.

Changing back and forth, the monsters, ghosts, and zombies were a net, surrounding the city. Eddie really had no way, found a direction with the fewest monsters to break out, flew all the way from the roof, and came to the tallest building nearby.

Then he discovered a familiar building on the south side, and the area within ten kilometers around the building was crowded with monsters, and even many huge figures were rushing toward this side.

Eddie couldn't help but curse: "Isn't that the Avengers base?"

No wonder he didn't see any superhero zombies after hanging around for a long time. It turned out that other monsters in this universe blocked them in the house.

Eddie looked from afar, and could just see some scenes inside the base windows. He discovered that what made the zombies scream wasn't the monsters that broke in, nor was it any enemy, but their companions.

Captain America looked like he was controlled by something, frantically waving his shield and smashing toward the people around him. Ant-Man and Wasp didn't show mercy to him either, swinging their fists to attack him, but soon they also seemed to see something terrifying and backed away repeatedly.

Iron Man was screaming while hitting the wall with his head, and Dr. Banner was huddled in the corner covering his head, as if he had entered a hallucination.

This group of Avengers in the Avengers base looked like they were possessed by demons. Eddie couldn't help but shiver, swallowed again and said: "Are they possessed by ghosts? I heard that ghosts will control their enemies to commit suicide when they take revenge..."

"If you are talking about brain wave attacks, they indeed will." Venom said: "Your brain waves were forcibly modified several times before, and I forcibly changed them back."

"Can't you see ghosts?"

"I can see what you see by borrowing your eyes, when my brain waves are consistent with yours, and when your brain waves are relatively similar to the ghost's frequency and wavelength, its attack will be effective on you, but as long as I forcibly reverse your brain waves, it will be fine."

"What on earth is going on?" Eddie was a bit puzzled: "What is a ghost? How does it affect humans?"

Venom thought for a while and said: "According to my observation, a ghost is a special radio wave. Because of the clever combination of its frequency and wavelength, it produces a special property, that is, it can exist independently without borrowing any matter."

"When your brain waves are very different from them, you can't see them at all, and they can't affect you. But if your brain waves are similar to them, then you will inevitably see them and be affected by them."

"The way they attack people is to merge with your brain waves the moment your brain wave frequency and wavelength are closest to them, and then take over your body."

"And the way to resist them is to reverse your brain waves at that moment, let the frequency and wavelength change completely, and they will be kicked out directly."

Venom hesitated for a while and said: "This involves some idealism of humans. If you believe that there are ghosts in this world at first, and the moment the ghost affects you, you become completely disbelieving, then you can kick it out."

"But humans seem to find it difficult to do this. You not only cannot control your own brain waves, but you can't even reverse a certain belief in a short time, so it is unlikely to get rid of ghost control by yourself."

"Of course, if someone is very good at controlling their emotions and can change what they believe or don't believe in an instant, then perhaps they can wake up by themselves."

Venom's description reminded Eddie of a person, or rather, a profession, which was a psychologist.

"And them..." Venom looked at the Avengers members who were going crazy in the base and said: "They probably just experienced some mental stimulation, causing their brain wave frequency and wavelength to be similar to the ghosts, and then they were taken advantage of by the ghosts."

"As for whether they can get rid of it? I think it's unlikely." ===== CHAPTER 1805 =====

"Of course, if someone is very good at controlling their own emotions and can change what they believe or disbelieve in an instant, then perhaps they could sober themselves up on their own."

Venom's description reminded Eddie of someone, or rather, a profession: a psychiatrist.

"As for them..." Venom looked at the Avengers members going crazy in the base and said, "I'm afraid they just experienced some mental stimulation, causing their brainwave frequencies and wavelengths to approximate those of ghosts, and then they were taken advantage of and controlled by ghosts."

"As for whether they can get rid of it? I'd say it's unlikely."
