Chapter 666 Seven Years
In the hotel room, Zhang Yi and Dean Sam sat opposite each other.
At this time, the two brothers have more or less understood some of the secrets in this world, including the tragic situation that the mutants in this world are suffering, and the destruction of this world by that unknown existence.
Dean and Sam arrived here just in time to catch the evening news, which allowed them to directly see the terrorist attack that occurred in Manhattan.
When they looked directly at the wild sentry robot that was as huge as a mountain on the TV screen, they were so shocked that they couldn't close their jaws.
To be honest, Dean and Sam asked themselves that they had experienced a lot of weird things, and they often licked blood on the tip of a knife, but facing such a machine fortress, they really couldn't figure out how to solve it.
"God, is this the trouble you've been solving?" Dean took a sip of cold beer to calm down. His eyes were fixed on the TV, and his forehead was covered with sweat.
Hearing this, Zhang Yi waved his hand slightly, and then picked up the cup. "This thing is not a 'trouble' yet. The situation I am currently encountering is more difficult than you imagine."
Seeing the two brothers again, Zhang Yi actually wanted to have a good exchange with them, but he knew that time was urgent now and there were more important things waiting for them. If he wasted a little time, he might give the initiative to them. One point for the opponent.
And Sam also knows this. He has always been very good at judging the priorities of situations.
"We heard that there are some more powerful beings hidden in this world, and they are making some kind of plans. It seems that they can detect the existence of extraordinary beings. That's why you found us, right?"
"That's all you heard?" Zhang Yi paused. He thought that Luo Gen would explain everything clearly to them, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Luo Gen himself had a little understanding.
"'They' should be called 'Them'."
Zhang Yi put down his wine glass and said in a deep voice. "I know the identities of those guys. Correspondingly, they also know who I am. This is why they dare not appear in front of me. Therefore, I need to hide myself as well, and I also need two people who are investigating unknown events. Expert help.”
Upon hearing this, Dean and Sam looked at each other, with complicated expressions on their faces. They didn't know whether they should be happy or helpless.
"I know you know some people who are more powerful than us, but it's our honor that you can think of us. What's more, without your help back then, I'm afraid we two brothers wouldn't be alive today." Sam smiled. said.
"Sammy, don't talk nonsense. Zhang Yi is our friend. Helping friends is not a difficulty." Dean took a sip and looked directly at Zhang Yi. "Then where should we start investigating now?"
"I will give you some information about this world. After all, the age and environment here are completely different from your events. Those guys are eager to force me out, so you can't act with me. It's too dangerous. , I will find a way to attract the attention of those guys, and then I will leave it to you."
Zhang Yi knew the purpose of those dark observers. While he was trying his best to find them, those guys were also looking for their position. The outcome of this competition will probably depend on who has a better vision. .
In this case, Dean and Sam's movements must not be noticed by them.
The universe of evil forces is not within the scope of the observer's sight, and the two brothers naturally cannot be actively discovered by the observers. As long as they act carefully, there will be no accidents.
Seeing Zhang Ye's eyes looking towards him, Sam nodded slightly, but he still asked with some doubts. "I want to know, what exactly do you want us to investigate?"
"What do you mean?" Zhang Yi frowned.
"There must be a general direction." Sam spread his hands. "In our past investigation experience, we first read the victims from newspapers or media, judged which supernatural creatures were related to the crime methods, and then collected intelligence about these things. But this time, we even Haven’t seen it yet.”
"Didn't you already see it?"
Zhang Yi waved his hand, showed the scene outside the window to the two people in front of him, and sighed quietly.
"You just think that this world is about to die. And what I need you to investigate is the 'cause of death' of this world."
The cause of death of the world.
Dean and Sam were both a little unnatural. They felt the pressure on them double in an instant. Sure enough, none of the difficulties Zhang Yi encountered were simple. While they were still fighting against the ghosts, Zhang Yi had already begun to save a Another world.
"Okay!" Dean slammed the table. "That's all on me."
When they decided to follow the elderly Wolverine through the portal, the two brothers knew that they had no way out, but they had no choice. This was Zhang Yi's request for help, and they had no intention of rejecting it.
The two brothers got into working mode very quickly. After Dean made the decision, Sam stood up directly. "I'm going to talk to the boss downstairs."
"So urgent?" Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment.
"Didn't you say the time was urgent?" Sam placed his unopened beer in front of Dean and walked out the door. "And I also need to get some identity information about this place. After all, we are still undercover."
Looking at Sam's leaving figure, Zhang Yi couldn't help but shake his head.
“So professional”
If I had this kind of technology back then, how could I be reduced to hanging out with a group of scavengers?
Of course, Dean didn't know what Zhang Yi was thinking. He just had a different meaning and looked at the man in front of him who was running around in various universes with complicated eyes.
Zhang Yi was a little confused when Dean stared at him. "What's wrong?"
"When I first heard the news about you, I was quite angry." Dean opened Sam's bottle of beer with a serious expression. Zhang Yi was still wondering why the other party said that, but Dean's next words Zhang Yi was immediately speechless at the words.
"It's been seven years, Zhang Yi. In these seven years, you have never gone to see Qiao, and you have never left any news, not even to report that you are safe."
"."
Zhang Yi actually wanted to explain, but he knew that no matter what he said, it was meaningless. He had been busy with all kinds of troublesome things for such a long time, and he didn't even have time to rest, but this was not a good excuse.
"I know you are very busy, especially after seeing the situation in the world, but I hope you can understand one thing, that is why you are working so hard, Zhang Yi, I know you now have Biqia There is more power than God, but I don’t want you to forget the fact that you are still a human being.”
Dean looked at Zhang Yi calmly and spoke word by word.
“Everything we fight for with our lives is for our families and friends.”
"I understand." Zhang Yi nodded heavily.
"This is not just talk. No matter what, after this matter is over, you should go see Qiao. Since Ellen retired, she has been working alone these years. Sometimes even I can't contact Sam. Fuck her." Dean sighed.
"Ellen has retired?" Zhang Yi frowned. He thought the mother and daughter had been hunting monsters together.
When he left that year, Zhang Yi secretly cast the 'Luck of the Ancient Heroes' on Ellen and Qiao. Although it was not as powerful as the two archangels on Dean and Sam, it was enough to ensure the safety of the mother and daughter. It was safe. Now that he heard that Ellen had retired, Zhang Yi was stunned.
Demon hunters generally cannot retire. Their blood feud with devils and monsters makes it impossible for them to retreat peacefully, because even if they hide, they will eventually be targeted by those evil creatures.
There is only one possibility for retirement, and that is death or extremely serious injury.
Seeing that Zhang Yi seemed to have misunderstood something, Dean shook his head slightly. "Ellen was old and tired of fighting and killing, so he returned to the Hunter Tavern and became the boss."
"Oh, that's okay." Zhang Yi felt relieved a little. "There won't be any blind thing harassing Ellen, right?"
Zhang Ye has not forgotten that the yellow-eyed demon once destroyed the Hunter Tavern. If those monsters and demons knew about Ellen's situation, they would not let it go.
But Dean just smiled. "They don't dare."
"Don't forget what you did in the hunter's tavern back then. Now that tavern has become a holy place in the eyes of demon hunters. No monster dares to go there to cause trouble. Even the gods will go there to spend money."
"God?" Zhang Yi blinked, but he really hadn't thought of this.
"Although strictly speaking, the relationship between us and the gods is also hostile, but not all gods are the same. After all, when we hunt certain monsters, we still need to pray to the corresponding gods. And now, the times have changed Things have changed. Some gods have stopped eating humans long ago, and some gods have never eaten humans. So slowly, we have learned to coexist peacefully."
After a pause, Dean continued. "No matter what, I still want to thank you for your help at that time. Without that shock, I'm afraid it wouldn't be like this now."
"We are friends, saying thank you is too disrespectful." Zhang Yi smiled and raised his glass.
Dean reacted quickly. He picked up the wine bottle, touched it with Zhang Yi, and said. "Yeah, saying thank you is too foreign, so you don't have to express gratitude for our coming. Being able to adventure in other universes is also a special experience for me."
