American Comics: Multiverse of Madness.

Chapter 659 Under the Night
As the sun sets, the whole world is covered by darkness.

Amid the bright lights and revelry of the big city, no one would know that in the darkness, some strange monsters are staring at the delicious flesh and blood.

James, with Polaris and Twinkle, continued to travel along the country roads. After the sun set, the three of them had already walked out of the city. According to the bright mark on the playing cards, Dean should be in the suburbs at this moment.

The three of them had been hiding from place to place all year round, and it was common for them to sleep in the open air. So even though the mountain road here was extremely tortuous, they didn't say much. They just tried their best to speed up their pace, hoping to find the guy Zhang Ye mentioned as soon as possible.

While James was moving forward quickly, he was also secretly alert.

Although this place is much safer than his world, it is still a different world after all, so it is impossible for James to completely let down his guard.

In particular, Zhang Ye told him about the demons created by the Creator God and the monsters created by Eve in this world. The combat power of these guys is very terrifying. Although they don't seem to be a big threat, ordinary people can also hunt demons as long as they master the methods, but they are bound to capsize in the gutter.

During James's more than 100 years of career, he has heard countless legends and myths, including horror stories about vampires, zombies, ghosts and the like, but most of them are lies made up by people out of boredom. Even if there are true ones, they are the things done by mutants who cannot control their abilities.

Before mutants were completely exposed to humans, these creatures had been active in the myths of various countries, and were distorted and adapted as they continued to spread, eventually forming what they are today.

After the mutant race was exposed, all myths and legends were labeled as "heresies", and even the usually free United States banned the reading of the Bible.

Of course, this is only what happens in the world where James lives. Here, in this world where mutants do not exist, those mythical monsters are real, and they are complete monsters, the kind that eat people.

"Is it that far?" Polaris walked a little further, his face becoming a little impatient. "This is not the 'little' error you just mentioned."

"It's almost there, believe me, we're almost there." James had a headache. They were in an unfamiliar place and had been moving forward for such a long time. If the three of them were not ordinary people, they would have given up long ago.

"Yeah, we're almost there, just like you said eleven times before, nothing new." Polaris rolled her eyes. She had heard this sentence all the way, but the surrounding scenery was almost the same except for the dark woods. "I told you when we left the city that we should just steal a car, it would be faster, but you refused to listen."

"This is not the world we are familiar with. Stealing a car is easy to say. Do you think the police won't investigate us? Don't forget, our identities cannot withstand further investigation." James glanced at Polaris and replied in a deep voice.

Polaris also understood that what Logan said was right. This world did give her a strange feeling that was both familiar and strange. If she was exposed rashly, some tricky troubles would indeed arise, so she was just using it as an excuse to complain.

The three of them moved forward for a distance again, and in the distance, a small town hidden in the darkness appeared in front of them.

In fact, it is not accurate to call it a town. It is more like a remote village surrounded by farms. From the road sign, you can vaguely see that the name of this village is "Sweet Wheat Village".

"Is it here?"

Looking at the complex of buildings in the dark, James frowned slightly.

Obviously, this peaceful town was very quiet, giving people a feeling of tranquility and comfort, but for some reason, James' innate body warning began to sound the alarm, which made him very uneasy.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go in and find him!" Polaris saw that he finally had a place to stay and hurriedly prepared to move forward.

But she had just taken two steps when James raised his hand to stop her. Polaris frowned. "What's wrong? Why are you stopping me?"

"It's always better to be careful." James ignored the North Star and the twinkle, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings in the pitch-black darkness. "Before coming here, Zhang Ye said that this Dean is a professional demon hunter. He and his brother work together and have no fixed place to live. Now that they appear here, I'm afraid things are not that simple."

"I know." Polaris flexed his wrist. "So it's our turn to come out now, right?"

Seeing Polaris's excited face, James sighed softly. He hadn't seen such an energetic mutant child for some time.

Shaking his head slightly, James said, "Our mission is just to bring Dean and his brother to Zhang Ye. We are not responsible for the affairs of this world."

"When did the legendary Wolverine become like this?" Polaris crossed his arms. "You weren't like this when you challenged my father." "That's different." James waved his hand, as if he didn't want to recall those things.

"What's the difference? You know better than anyone how powerless your body of steel is in front of my father. But even so, didn't you still stand on the road to stop my father every time?" Polaris argued.

"I told you it's different, you don't understand it at all"

James opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly he stopped in his tracks and swallowed back the rest of his words.

Seeing that Logan stopped talking halfway, Polaris naturally couldn't let him go. "I don't understand anything, go ahead and tell me."

"Shh!"

James had no intention of chatting at this time. He suddenly made a gesture to keep quiet, then raised his head and moved his nose, as if he was smelling something.

Polaris and Twinkle looked at each other and immediately realized that if Wolverine could suddenly prepare for battle, there must be danger around them. So the two of them became serious instantly and carefully observed any movement around them.

I don’t know how long it took.

Just when Polaris couldn't bear it any longer, suddenly, the sound of branches and leaves breaking came from the woods to the right behind the three of them.

As soon as you heard the sound, you would know it was the crisp sound of dry leaves falling on the ground and being crushed by something. This sound was extremely obvious in the dead silence of the night.

It can be said that the moment the sound was heard, the three people present turned to that direction at the same time, staring at the shadowy area.

As the sound got closer, soon, a human silhouette appeared in front of the three people.

He was an extremely young guy, who seemed to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was also startled when he saw the three people in front of him, but James could accurately observe that there was more confusion than surprise in his eyes.

His nose moved, and an indescribable fishy smell entered James' nasal cavity, choking him so much that he almost couldn't help but take a few steps back. However, there were two little girls, Polaris and Twinkle, behind him, so he naturally couldn't take a step back.

While James, Polaris and others were on high alert, the guy on the opposite side was also observing the strange combination in front of them.

He first poked his head out and sniffed hard, as if he was confirming something, but soon his expression became confused, and the look in his eyes when he looked at James was full of weirdness.

James felt a little awkward being looked at by the young man and was about to say something, but unexpectedly, the young man spoke first.

"You must be Uncle Egg, you are so polite, coming here and bringing food."

food?

Polaris and Flash were stunned for a moment, but James didn't react at all. He still maintained that silent and serious face, looking at the young man in front of him calmly.

Seeing that the sturdy man in front of him did not show any unnecessary expression, the young man became bolder and continued with a smile.

"Nice to meet you. I'm your nephew Jim. Uncle, you're welcome this time."

As he spoke, Jim moved closer to James and laughed in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"My dad just captured two demon hunters as snacks."
