Chapter 920 The approaching scarlet death, Lana is in danger!Peter wants to give Star-Lord and Stargirl some time alone.
Judging from this boy's personality, Peter suspected that he would be like A-Zu and would never have a girlfriend in his life.
Star-Lord in the Marvel world is one of the famous "funny men" in the Marvel universe. He likes to make jokes and even tells jokes at life-and-death moments.
This naughty kid who is worried about his father's death that he picked up is just as funny as Star-Lord in the Marvel world.
For example, since he was a child, Star-Lord has often called himself a "legendary interstellar thief" and likes to give himself various exaggerated titles.
Moreover, this kid doesn't pay attention to body management, so that now his body is only less than half a hamburger away from being a fat man.
Given Star-Lord's personality problems, Peter thought Stargirl would be a good choice and such a girl would be very suitable for Star-Lord.
"I don't think she needs my help."
Star-Lord didn't know Peter's good intentions, so he put down his knife and fork and said to Peter: "Her stick is unusual, and I think she prefers to team up with you, Dad."
Seeing Star-Lord's heartless look, Peter was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.
Since you are so ignorant of romance, just stay a bachelor for the rest of your life.
Ciri ate the beef with potatoes roasted by Persephone and listened to the discussion with great interest.
She likes the atmosphere of breakfast.
Everyone sat together and ate happily.
In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shines on the windowsill, the world seems to be given new life.
Riven, who was sitting next to her, had an unhappy expression on her face, and it was obvious that she didn't like this girl named Courtney.
Baobao, who was on Riven's left, was eating the sausage in his mouth absent-mindedly. It seemed that he was worried about whether his modified gun experiment last night would be successful.
Theresa and Joan of Arc were dozing off at the dining table.
It was obvious that the two of them hid in the bed again last night and whispered all night long.
Tom was eating treacle pie with a calm expression, as if to say, "The Courtney you're talking about has nothing to do with me."
Ciri remembered the treacle tart he had eaten, which was a very traditional British dessert.
Raven said that this food is not only popular in the Muggle world, but also among wizards. Treacle tarts are also one of Harry Potter's favorite foods (it is the smell Harry Potter smelled before the love potion).Loki, as usual, transformed into the appearance of a young man, wearing a green robe and a bull horn crown, and he had a very elegant feeling when eating.
Horus sat next to Loki. She didn't know if it was Ciri's illusion, but she felt that Horus was bigger than before.
Not only did he grow taller, but his muscles also became more powerful and prominent.
She suspected that Horus would grow into a basketball star over two meters tall.
Mark, who was sitting next to Horus, didn't seem to hear the discussion between Peter and Star-Lord. He was shoveling rice into his mouth with an anxious expression.
On the right side of Horus, close to Peter, Wei was holding a sausage with her left hand while concentrating on reading a book in her right hand.
The name on the cover of the book caught Ciri's eyes - "The Origin and Legend of Valoran".
She remembered that Bakugo said that Valoran was the name of the continent where Piltover University was located.
It seems that Wei is still a good girl who likes reading.
It’s a pity that I haven’t had much time to read recently.
Because she has been spending all her time recently on things that she thinks are not her job.
Shiri has been lying around on the farm lately, obsessed with watching TV.
He even forgot to go back to his own Demon Hunter Continent.
As for the TV show she's obsessed with, it's a movie about vampires.
There are legends about vampires on the Demon Hunter Continent.
She heard from Yennefer that humans and vampires, two races that did not originally belong to the same world on their continent, entered the demon hunter world together during the last celestial conjunction.
However, compared to the huge number of humans living there, the number of true high-level vampires crossing into this world is extremely rare.
In addition, vampires are also a kind of blood-sucking creatures in the demon hunter world. They usually appear in the form of human women, seduce men and be alone with them, and eventually suck their blood.
For this reason, Ciri prefers the vampire stories in this world.
So the latest hit TV series, "Jerusalem Town", attracted Shiri's interest.
The TV series mainly tells the story of writer Ben Mills returning to the fictional town of Salem (formerly known as Jerusalem Grove) to write a novel, and discovers that the Masten mansion, which was a shadow of his childhood, has been bought by a mysterious European man.
Subsequently, strange events occurred one after another in the town: hounds were killed, children disappeared, and residents died. It was eventually revealed that the owner of the old house was the vampire leader Barrow, who gradually controlled the town by converting the residents.
Looking at the food on the plate, Ciri thought with some emotion: Fortunately, I don’t live in a small town like Salem.
Otherwise, when you open the window, you’ll see vampires floating outside, knocking on the window to lure you to let them in.
This is really a rather terrifying thing.
"Are you okay, Ciri?"
Peter's voice suddenly interrupted Ciri's wandering thoughts.
She looked up and saw Peter giving her a concerned look.
"I called you several times, Ciri, are you okay?"
"No, no, I'm fine. I was just lost in thought."
Ciri smiled at Peter, indicating that she was just distracted.
"Yeah, that's good." Peter nodded and asked Ciri, "Diana went to Washington, right?"
He had gone to Kent Farm before, and when he came back Wonder Woman was gone.
Shirley said she suddenly received a message from her friend in Washington, and that she had an emergency, so she went to Washington without even having time to say hello.
As soon as Peter finished speaking, he received a call from Diana.
"Diana, where are you?"
"I'm in Washington. Sorry, Peter, I didn't say hello to you before. There's some trouble here. The Washington Museum is said to have been attacked by a winged monster."
Diana reveals why she rushed to Washington.
"Harpies are disgusting creatures, but they're not that dangerous once you cut off their heads."
Diana suspected that the monster that attacked the people was the harpy.
The harpy she was talking about was a monster in Greek mythology, also known as the Harpy.
It is generally believed that the Harpies were born to the sea god Thaumas and the ocean nymph Electra (and therefore the sister of the rainbow goddess Iris); there are also claims that they were born to Typhon and Echidna.
As the daughter of Thaumas, the god of the sea, and Electra, the goddess of the ocean, the harpy inherited her parents' beauty but has the body of a vulture.
Harpies not only steal food from humans, but also defecate on top of people's heads. Due to their extremely fast flying speed, they are impossible to catch.
Diana had fought the Harpy on Paradise Island before.
So she suspected that the "winged monster" that appeared in Washington was the harpy.
After giving Diana a few instructions, Peter stroked his beard and fell into deep thought.
“The winged monster that suddenly appeared”, is it really the harpy?
Why do I have this ominous feeling?
night.
Neil Horse Farm.
Lana walked out of the room and looked up at the night sky.
The night sky was a little dark, and dark clouds gradually covered the sky.
The night wind swept across the wheat fields of Kansas, raising layers of black waves.
Lana folded her arms and stood next to the barn on Aunt Nell's farm. The white breath she exhaled condensed briefly and dissipated in the moonlight.
She shouldn't have stayed at the ranch so late - tomorrow was back-to-school day, and she should have been sleeping soundly on her little bed in the attic, instead of being driven by some kind of uneasiness to patrol this silent land alone.
She heard that Dr. Henry, who had been unconscious, was lying in front of the school last night, and the open space in front of Smallwell High School was also in a mess, as if someone had been fighting there.
Dr. Henry was sent to the hospital and was diagnosed with a stroke.
Lana had a good impression of Dr. Henry, but she didn't expect that he would have a stroke!I wonder what happened to him in front of school?Lana turned her thoughts to the present and looked toward the fence on the farm.
Since last week, several sheep in the fence have inexplicably gone missing and have not been found yet.
There was no trace of blood, no signs of a struggle, only a few scattered feathers - black as ink, with some strange sheen around the edges.
"It's just an eagle..."
She whispered to herself to comfort herself, her fingers unconsciously stroking the kryptonite necklace around her neck.
The cool touch suddenly became hot, and the green light pulsated faintly in the darkness.
"Shh-"
A sharp sound cut through the night sky.
Lana looked up sharply and saw that the weather vane on the top of the barn was spinning wildly, and the moon was being swallowed by a huge shadow.
When the thing spread its wings, she saw clearly that it was not a bird's skeletal structure, but rather a hybrid of a bat and a reptile, with sharp bone spurs protruding from the joints and eyes emitting red light.
“Oh my god…!”
Lana's throat tightened, but her legs felt like they were rooted.
The monster's eyes lit up in the darkness, not with the reflection of an animal, but with the hungry scarlet of some intelligent creature.
what is that?Vampire?!When a gust of wind blew, she seemed to smell the scent of fear and death.
The light bulb in the barn suddenly exploded, and shards of glass rained down.
Lana finally regained control of her body and turned to rush towards the farmhouse, the hay making a crisp sound under her feet.
There was a dull thud of something heavy falling behind him, followed by the sound of wings flapping like joints rubbing against each other - getting closer and closer.
As her fingertips touched the door handle, she felt a heavy blow to her shoulder.
The world was spinning, my back hit the mud hard, and the air in my lungs was squeezed out.
The monster swooped down, its claws scraping across her cheek and leaving deep grooves in the wooden door.
at the same time.
Courtney was flying in the air on the Star Staff and soon noticed something unusual about Neil's horse farm.
