American Comics: Multiverse of Madness.

Chapter 406: My reinforcements won’t walk across the bridge

"It's actually an illusion. Why didn't I think of it? Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible for a demon hunter to be possessed by a demon. And looking back carefully, there was something wrong with my mother's state at the time."

Listening to Zhang Yi's story, Qiao also discovered the violation. Although in his own eyes, his mother's expression at that time was a bit ferocious, as if she wanted to kill someone, she did not make any actual attack at all.

But because he was not experienced enough, he raised his hand and was ready to kill his relatives for justice, which led to a scuffle among everyone. Now think about it, if those people were also affected by the illusion, then it seemed that he was also possessed by the devil.

In this way, the 'ferocious' expressions can be explained. Those people were obviously 'surprised' rather than 'bloodthirsty'.

Recalling the ridiculous things she had done before, Qiao's mood suddenly became excited. She grabbed Zhang Yi's arm and said anxiously.

"Then what should we do now? My mother is still with those ordinary people. If the war knight uses illusions again, then they will keep killing each other."

Speaking of this, Qiao thought of something again, and his face became even paler.

"Moreover, if that guy can make us see normal people as devils, then he also has the ability to make us see devils as normal people. It is very likely that devils have been mixed among those people, and their situation will be very dangerous!"

Seeing the eager look on Qiao's face, Zhang Yi nodded approvingly.

It seems that Qiao is no longer the little girl she was when she was just starting out. She can actually deduce so many clues based on her own words, and most of them are correct. This is enough to show that she has indeed improved a lot.

"Okay, I know you are worried about your mother's condition, but don't worry. The most critical issue now is that we need to find Dean and Sam first."

"Dean? Sam?"

Qiao was slightly startled.

"Are they here too?!"

Zhang Yi nodded slightly when he heard this, then turned to look in another direction of the city.

"How do you think I found you? The things I gave you are not products of this world. In my perception, they are as dazzling as candlelight in the dark. I have already felt Dean and Sam, They're right here."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's kill him quickly!"

When Joe heard this, he immediately picked up the gun in his hand, his face full of interest.

"Just wait a moment. There are demons wandering outside right now. It's not impossible to kill them out, but it's easy to scare them away. If we really want to kill these guys together, we'd better keep a low profile first."

As Zhang Yi spoke, he took Qiao's little hand and led her out of the warehouse.

After leaving the abandoned convenience store, it was already dark outside. After Zhang Yi determined the location of Dean and Sam, he looked around curiously while heading towards his destination as if nothing had happened.

Qiao followed Zhang Yi closely. Unlike Zhang Yi, who was in a state of going out for a walk, she was alert, like a three-flowered girl, always paying attention to the goings-on around her.

Walking on the deserted street, especially when surrounded by demons, Qiao could feel countless pairs of eyes staring at her in the shadows. This feeling made her breathe a little faster.

"Are you sure this is what you call 'low-key'?"

After taking a look at Zhang Ye, Qiao couldn't help but whisper.

"Don't be nervous, just think of it as going out for a walk in the middle of the night."

Zhang Yi waved his hand and said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Qiao didn't know what to say for a moment, but she also knew Zhang Yi's methods. After all, the memory of slaying the dragon was still vivid in her mind. Since Zhang Yi wasn't nervous, she could relax a little. tone.

After advancing some distance, Zhang Yi had already led Qiao out of the market. Further ahead was the residential area where the rich people of this town lived.

Just as he was about to enter the residential area with rows of single-family houses, Zhang Yi saw seven or eight figures standing in the middle of the road holding various weapons.

It can be seen from the dark pupils of those people that these guys are definitely transformed demons, and they are not low-level demons, but demon guards under the war knights.

Zhang Yi is not affected by the war knights, not to mention he has the eyes of a wizard, so in his eyes, these guys are real demons.

However, seeing these demons holding human firearms always made Zhang Yi feel like he wanted to complain.

"Front."

Qiao also saw those guys, and his originally relaxed heart became excited again.

"Don't worry, just walk normally."

Zhang Yi patted her back gently, and then continued walking forward without any unnecessary emotions at all, as if he didn't see those guys.

When they got closer, several demons looked at Zhang Yi and Qiao.

"What are you?"

Sensing those gazes, Zhang Yi said softly.

Raising their heads, the demons took a few steps back slightly as they looked at the dark eyes of Zhang Yi and Qiao, as well as the powerful demonic power that was constantly emanating from them.

If pitch-black eyes can be disguised, then the turbid demonic aura is definitely not something that can be disguised. Although the two people in front of them are very strange, their demonic power cannot be faked.

Without any obstruction, Zhang Yi led Qiao directly past these demons and walked into the residential area.

After crossing a few blocks, Qiao felt relieved. Then she looked at Zhang Yi in surprise and asked what she had wanted to ask just now.

"how did you do it!?"

"Don't forget, I am a wizard. Although the skill of illusion looks weird, it is not complicated. Since that guy can deceive you in this way, I can naturally deceive them in turn."

Zhang Yi smiled, but he didn't say anything.

The demons he devoured here were not in vain. His current demonic power is completely consistent with that of this world, to the point where it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Inside a foreign-style building in a residential area. Dean and Sam were ready to fight out. They now had various supplies and firepower in their hands. Their current plan was to take these things back to the church basement and join Ellen and others.

"Ready, Sammy?"

Dean held up a squirt and fought back the pain in his leg.

In their plan, Sam should be the first to attack, attracting the attention of the demons hiding outside, and then Dean quickly rushes in the direction of the church. When Sam returns in a circle, he will respond. .

After checking whether his weapon was loaded again, Dean suddenly realized that Sam had not given him any response.

"Sammy?"

Dean turned his head in confusion, only to see Sam standing motionless at the window, staring outside.

Hearing Dean call him again, Sam came back to his senses. He suddenly laughed out loud and turned his head to look at Dean with a complicated face.

"Dean, go open the door."

"What? What are you talking about."

Dean frowned, not understanding what Sam was talking about.

He limped to Sam's side and looked out the window. The next moment, his expression suddenly became wonderful.

On the stone pavement on the lawn outside the house, two men and women they were very familiar with were smiling and saying hello to them.

"How can this be!?"

Dean opened his mouth wide and looked at Zhang Yi and Qiao outside with some disbelief.

No matter how weird this scene looks, I don't know why, but it doesn't seem so outrageous when it comes to Zhang Yi.

"Are you sure it's them and not some demon?" Dean turned his head and looked at Sam. "We've fought so many times with demons, it's no surprise what they do, let alone Joe being possessed by one."

"Ellen told us that Qiao was possessed. We have never seen it with our own eyes. Let's talk about Zhang Yi."

Sam's expression was a little tangled, and to be honest, he was a little unsure.

The two brothers looked at each other, and finally chose to open the door first. No matter whether the other person was a friend in their memory, it was impossible to leave them outside.

The door opens.

"Long time."

As soon as Zhang Yicai raised his hand, a bottle of water came to his face and wet his face.

".not see."

Feeling the cold water dripping from his face, Zhang Yi looked speechless.

Seemingly sensing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Sam reluctantly took the kettle and poured it into Joe's face, then smiled coquettishly.

"Sorry, I had to make sure you weren't demons."

The water in the kettle is holy water, which is produced when the demon hunter puts the cross into the water and prays. The water has special power. If it is poured on the demon, it will produce a severe burning sensation.

In a sense, this method can be regarded as a kind of "mystery" similar to magic. In addition to fighting against demons, this method is also the best way to identify one's own people.

However, for someone like Zhang Yi who can convert energy at any time, the holy water cannot distinguish his demonic power, so it has no effect.

Immediately afterwards, Sam gave Zhang Yi a big hug.

"Long time no see Zhang Yi, it's so nice to see you."

After a brief exchange of greetings, Zhang Yi raised his hand and patted Dean's thigh with a healing spell. Dean only felt a little itchiness in his wound, and then there was no pain anymore.

At this time, the brothers completely let down their guard and hurriedly took Zhang Yi and Qiao back to the house.

After some intelligence checking, Dean and Sam also knew the specific situation outside. When they learned that all this was caused by the war knights, and that almost all humans died from cannibalism, the expressions on their faces were all changed. Somewhat gloomy.

"Before, I was wondering how it was possible for Joe to be possessed by a demon with his abilities. Now it seems that all of us have been fooled."

Dean shook his head, and Sam continued.

"There is nothing we can do about it. For demon hunters, it has become a conditioned reflex to attack when encountering a black-eyed demon. The other party is obviously taking advantage of this to trick us."

After a pause, Sam thought of something again and looked at Zhang Yi.

"Zhang Yi, in your opinion, what should we do now?"

This was the first time they had encountered such a strange opponent, but since Zhang Yi could see through the opponent's true identity at a glance, he must have a solution.

Hearing this, Zhang Yi did not answer directly, but asked a question.

"By the way, Sam, you just said that the bridge connecting the city to the outside has been blown up and is guarded by demonic armies. Now this is a completely isolated town without any reinforcements, right?"

Sam was confused.

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Zhang Yi, on the other hand, couldn't help but smile.

"It's okay, my reinforcements won't walk across the bridge."
