Zongman: The Legend of the Demon Fox

Chapter 197 Cartoonist and Novelist

"Humanism in this world..."

Kneading the star beast in his arms, Merlin finally chose to throw it off the tower.

Go and see something truly beautiful...

Regardless of the little animals that made grievances and complaints during the fall, Merlin looked at the boundless sea of ​​flowers from his tower as always.

I can't remember when I was locked here, looking at the world alone, reading everything that happened.

Heroes, monsters, kings, slaves...

Regardless of their identities, all existences that have left traces in history and have not been forgotten by mankind will turn into heroic spirits, and under the management of the two major restraining forces, they will maintain the world.

"Shouldn't come, the last human master and shield girl..."

On the tower, the lonely mage was lost in memory, until the golden flame turned into a portal and an old friend walked through it.

"Have you decided?"

Looking at the phantom ancient mage Merlin in front of him, he sighed softly.

"I've lived long enough, and I don't intend to use the power of darkness anymore. I will leave the rest to Stephen Strange. I believe he will do better than me."

Mage Ancient One climbed up the tower and faced the greatest magician in the Xingyue world at the end of the age of gods.

"I believe Stephen Strange has the ability to deal with Dormammu, but I'm more worried about other things..."

Master Gu Yi raised his hand to point towards the void in the air, and the light gray mist formed a scene.

Countless battleships passed through the earth's atmosphere, and a burly purple giant descended in the light blue nebula cluster. The golden glove on his left hand was inlaid with five gemstones emitting a faint halo.

Those are the cosmic Rubik's Cube representing space, the cosmic spirit ball representing power, the ether particles representing reality, the Eye of Agamotto representing time, and the original soul stone representing soul.

"As you can see, I saw it. He collected six infinity gems. Unfortunately, I couldn't see what happened afterwards, but not long ago, a big green guy came to me to borrow time gems, so I learned Pa seems to have succeeded..."

The phantom dissipated, the face of the ancient mage was lowered, and Merlin was lost in thought.

"I have no right to interfere in your world, but before your world and mine are completely separated, I can give you some help."

Merlin raised his head, and the Ancient One mage smiled at him before disappearing completely.

"Farewell, Marvel's Supreme Mage..."

----

On a plane from the United States to Japan, an old man wearing sunglasses is looking at the map in his hand and thinking about where to travel.

Staying in the United States recently has really tested the heart of the elderly.

A young, thin and tall man was sitting on the seat next to him, holding a horror novel called "The Call of Cthulhu" in his hand. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the travel brochure carried by the old man beside him. The map of Japan on it.

"Is the old man planning to go to Japan too?"

The man closed the book in his hand, turned his head and greeted the old man beside him gently, like a gentleman.

"Oh, hello! Sorry, I haven't noticed anyone beside me."

The old man turned around as if he had just discovered him, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile, "Hello, friend, my name is Stan Lee. I just lost my job not long ago and I plan to go out to relax."

The man held the old man's hand, and at the same time he did not forget to take off the gloves in advance with a hearty smile on his face.

"Just call me Howard. My full name is Howard Philip Lovecraft. I'm a novelist who only writes horror stories that few people want to read."

The old man looked a little surprised at the man in front of him, smiled and chatted with him.

"You write books? What a coincidence I used to draw comics."

Master Stan Lee smiled and pointed to the book on Howard's lap.

"Is that the book you wrote?"

Howard handed the book in his hand to Stan Lee, and at the same time did not forget to look at the old man in front of him carefully.

"Are you interested? Although no one likes to read my book, but if you are interested, this book will be given to you."

Stan Lee took the novel and looked at the lifelike paintings on the cover with some surprise.

"That's really good, I have to give something in return."

Stan Lee took out a comic book from his arms. On the cover was a man in a red and gold and steel armor.

"This is a cartoon we drew when we were young, and it has been kept by our side as a souvenir for some years. But you and the father of the protagonist in my book are both named Howard. It is really a wonderful fate."

Stan Lee accepted the novel, and at the same time returned his comics as a gift, and carefully looked through the map in his hand.

"Are you going to Japan too? I haven't decided where to travel yet. Do you have any good advice?"

Howard Philip Lovecraft glanced at the map and said casually, "What do you think of Fuyuki City? It's near the seaside, and it's quite prosperous. You can even go surfing and bask in the sun."

Stan Lee looked at the map and said with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

"Fuyuki City is indeed a good place, but it's a bit late to go now."

Howard Philip Lovecraft glanced at the map, and finally said with a smile: "It looks like it's late, and the plane is about to arrive. Let's see you later."

The plane descended slowly, and Howard Philip Lovecraft and Stan Lee left the airport after saying goodbye to each other.

Before leaving, Stan Lee held the novel and looked at the map in his hand and said to himself in distress: "It seems that there is no Fuyuki City in Japan..."

There is no word for Fuyuki City on the map, only Kobe City in Hyogo Prefecture in the Kansai region of Japan...

(Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture, Kansai region, Japan is the prototype of Fuyuki)
In the downtown area, Jeanne Alter faintly noticed that the surrounding situation was a bit strange.

The ruins burned by the fire during the Holy Grail War disappeared. I looked at the newspapers of the previous days, and there was no news about the Fuyuki fire, not even about the gas explosion.

A series of changes made her a little anxious, and even the connection with the seat of Heroes became indistinct.

Although it is not a big deal to the Heroic Spirit sitting high on the Heroic Seat, as a current servant, she knows very well that the shadow of the Heroic Spirit on the Heroic Spirit Seat means that it is very likely that she will not be able to return to the Heroic Spirit Seat after death.

Just when she was extremely annoyed, a figure in a white coat jumped out at an untimely moment and bumped into her body.

"it hurts!"

Clutching her flushed forehead, resisting the urge to burn the guy who knocked her down, Jeanne Alter raised her head and saw the guy's face clearly.

"I'm sorry to bump into you, but I'm really in a hurry! I have another operation to do this morning. If I go late, the patient may have an accident. If you want to find me, go to the hospital."

The person who bumped into her spoke in a panic, and finally left her and ran away.

Only Joan Alter was left angrily stomping on the spot alone.

Romani Achiman, seemed to have a good dream last night, the favorite virtual idol in the blog came to his side, and participated in an adventure called the Holy Grail War together.

In the midst of dreamy adventures and busyness, enjoying the sweet fantasies of dreams, Romani Achiman wakes up and faces reality.

There is no dearest magic☆girl Meili-chan around her, and the city she is in is not called Fuyuki but Kobe City in Hyogo Prefecture, and there is no fire that burned down the city center.

Slackly getting up, he pressed the noisy alarm clock beside him and noticed the time on it.

6:35
"!"

"It's so late! I have an operation at 6:40, it will be miserable if I go late!"

Romani Aqiman didn't have time to tidy up the room and eat breakfast, so he hurriedly changed his clothes and left, bumping into a girl he didn't know on the way.

It wasn't until he ran to the hospital that he noticed that on his hand, a familiar ring was quietly worn on his finger...
