19. Raven's Voice(2/2)
Zatanna smiled awkwardly and said to Jimmy:
"My name is Zatanna, as you can see, Jimmy, I am a magician, and I am also a good friend of Merlin. You know Merlin, right?"
"Uh-huh."
Jimmy nodded vigorously and said to Zatanna:
"Mr. Merlin is a kind person. He and Mr. Patton rescued me and brought me here, and Sister Xuanlan is also a good person. I like it very much."
Hearing the child's unpretentious praise, a smile flashed on Xuanlan's face.
"Okay, then you and Merlin are friends."
Zatanna blinked, and she looked at Jimmy in front of her, her expression became more serious, she said:
"Now Merlin needs your help, he is targeted by a bad guy. The bad guy is like you, a mutant. You also know what impact your abilities will have on other mutants, right?"
"Yeah, I know."
Jimmy heard that Merlin was in danger, and his little face also showed a look of indignation. He waved his fists and said to Zatanna:
"Sister Xuanlan has explained to me that I can temporarily erase the power of other mutants. I am the natural 'nemesis' of all mutants! Does Mr. Merlin need me to help him? I am willing to help him!"
"Haha, what a brave child."
Zatanna stretched out her hand and pinched Jimmy's face, she said:
"But Merlin doesn't need you to go to the battlefield, he needs to borrow your abilities."
Miss Magician waved her fingers gently, and a needle appeared in her hand. She looked back at Jimmy and said:
"You are such a brave little man, you should not be afraid of injections, right?"
Jimmy, who was still full of courage just now, saw the needle in Zatanna's hand, and his body trembled.
But under the gaze of the two older sisters, Jimmy still showed a manly spirit, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"I'm not afraid!"
But the problem is, in this world, where is there a child who is not afraid of injections?
At noon, in the laboratory of Baxter Building.
Reed, who had just completed a set of tests, shook his body and took back his two hands that had spread throughout the laboratory. The scene was like a stretched rubber returning to its original state.
It's weird, but full of joy.
It has been several months since being radiated by cosmic rays and gained abilities. Reed and his friends have become accustomed to their current state.
Except for the book that was turned into a stone man, everyone else accepted the status quo.
Reed himself thinks there is no harm in alienation. The rubber body that can be stretched and retracted at will is also very useful, especially when doing experiments, one person can easily complete things that require a team to do.
Reed and Susan's younger brother, Jonathan, the most optimistic Jonathan, also went to the New York Heroes Association to become an S-level hero, obtained a superhuman flight license, and was busy playing heroic righteousness in New York City and around the world all day long. Because of his handsome face and cool abilities, he gained a large number of fans.
The young man was a little overjoyed. He changed his girlfriend faster than changing clothes, and received a stern warning letter from the New York Heroes Association.
Although many heroes are doing things like x fans, they are still a little restrained and know that such things are not glorious.
But Jonas, who is more indulgent, just goes barefoot. Although this young man is quite responsible, the impact of this is really bad.
"It's time to send Susan to a prenatal check-up tomorrow"
Dr. Reed used his rubber body to get lunch from the kitchen while preparing for the afternoon trial, with a happy smile on his face.
Because his wife is pregnant, his first son may be born in 3 months.
This is a real big deal for Reed.
However, just after Reed finished lunch, a sleepy feeling suddenly came. He lay in front of the laboratory bench and fell asleep.
"Mr. Reidrid!"
In his sleep, a voice sounded in Reid's ears. He opened his eyes blankly and saw himself appearing in a magnificent palace.
And in front of him, at the end of the luxurious hall with a crystal chandeliers, a woman in a cloak and a raven-shaped mask was sitting at the round table, calling him.
"Who are you? Where is this?"
Reed asked vigilantly that although he was not a superhero, he had enough wisdom to understand the scene in front of him.
He was trapped in some weird supernatural situation.
"Come here!"
Zatanna, disguised as a dress, waved her hand and said:
"We don't have much time, listen to me."
"A evil force is eyeing your unborn son, Franklin Richards, the powerful Omega mutant in the future will encounter the first ordeal of his life when he is about to be born."
"There is an evil spirit parasitized in other souls that covet your son's body."
"You can certainly doubt the smartest person in the world, but I think you have enough ability to test the extraordinary energy of your and your wife's bedroom after getting my reminder."
"But it's better not to alarm it."
"My son?"
Reed's expression became serious, and he walked to the round table and sat opposite Zatanna, saying:
"Tell me in detail."
"Good, your wisdom is like a rumor, your heart and your eyes have accepted all possible paths, which is really good."
Zatanna was extremely good at pretending to be a charlatan. She reached out and handed the blood in a reagent tube to Reed in a suspended posture, she said:
"You will protect your son, and we will defeat that evil force"
"We have a common purpose, we need your wisdom. This blood contains enough power to defeat evil, and we need you to purify it."
"You only have one week, remember, don't be discovered this is our last chance!"
Reed took the blood, he glanced at the blood test tube in his hand, and then at Zatanna who was disguised in front of him, and he said:
"How do I know that what you mean by 'evil' is not yourselves?"
"How can I be sure that all this is not directed and acted by you? Wisdom can be used to protect, but it can also be used to hurt me and I don't want to help the evildoer."
"hehe."
Zatanna smiled, and in the dream collapsed, she said to Reed:
"Beware is a good thing, but suspicion is a flaw. You can trust us because we have common friends."
"I am the voice of the raven, and I convey his will to the raven."
"Go and verify with him."
