Chapter 2021 Lighting up the Dream in Your Heart (XVI)
Ding-ding-ding-
The dull bells echoed over the dark manor, and a group of crows flapped their wings in front of the dark clouds in front of the moon, and landed on the dark brown dilapidated roof.
Stark, Schiller and Strange, who were talking, suddenly felt a chill in their hearts and a chill on their backs.
This was not normal. Except for Stark, Schiller and Strange were not afraid of ghosts, but they still felt an indescribable chill crawling across their spines along the cold ground under their feet, like a pair of big hands strangling their necks.
Schiller's eyes became desolate after a moment of dullness, and Strange's face also sank, and a glimmer of magic began to shine in his eyes.
Schiller reached out to button the collar of the shirt under the sweater, tightened his windbreaker, took off his glasses and put them in his pocket. Strange frowned after seeing his eyes, but considering the current situation, he said nothing.
The constant chilly atmosphere still lingered in everyone's heart, like an emotional magic that could not be removed. One step forward was irrational anger, and one step back was fear of losing one's armor.
Just as the atmosphere became trembling, a figure flashed behind the gate of the queue.
Schiller frowned slightly, and shouted in a low voice: "Bruce, Bruce Wayne."
The figure paused, walked around the gate, and it was Bruce who did not leave the amusement park. He was stunned when he came over, because it was obvious that the atmosphere here was like facing a great enemy.
"What's wrong?" Bruce asked.
"The atmosphere in the park is constantly being affected. How do you feel?" Schiller asked.
Seeing Schiller's eyes, Bruce knew which personality trait was floating up now, so he didn't ask back or change the subject, but answered directly: "I did investigate some things before, but... the atmosphere was affected?"
Bruce looked around, looked up at the sky, stepped on the ground under his feet, and said in a daze: "Where was it affected? What should I feel?"
"Don't you feel that the air here is particularly cold?" Stark rubbed his arms and shuddered. He really felt a little cold.
But in fact, he was wearing a lot of clothes, and there was a constant temperature device in the armor, but the cold feeling was like a shadow. What's more weird is that the completely sealed armor actually blows cold wind inside, and no matter which way Stark turns his head, the cold wind blows on the back of his head.
Schiller and Strange felt similar. The morbid personality trait has never been used to using gray fog, so every time he floats up, the gray fog is on vacation.
But this time, Gray Mist hesitated before leaving. He said, "I feel something is wrong. Something that can affect my existence is watching here. I think you should be careful."
This caused Schiller to be extremely vigilant, but it seemed that Bruce was not affected. Could it be because he was a visitor from another world?
"It is indeed a bit cold and damp here, but the environment is similar to Wayne Manor." Bruce touched his shoulder with his other hand and said, "The light is dim and the wind is gusty, but more than 90% of Gotham has this kind of weather in the past. I have long been used to it."
Bruce looked up at the moon covered by dark clouds again, and he sighed, "It's really a sunny day today."
For a moment, the two people living in the Marvel Universe had some bad associations with the environment in which Bruce lives.
Stark nudged Schiller next to him with his elbow and said, "Your multiverse travel plan makes sense. I wonder what kind of people living in a city would call such weather sunny."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold wind blew, blowing up the hair and coats of several people. Looking in the direction of the wind, a terrifying scene appeared.
The ghost in the haunted mansion was resurrected.
The resurrection of the ghost was actually just a show in the haunted mansion, starting with the ringing of the bell, just like the current scene.
One after another, ghost figures flashing with cold light and ghost fire emerged from the tombstones, and the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling spread throughout the manor. There was a slight sound under the soil, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
Schiller paused slightly and shouted, "Leave here."
He ran towards the bluestone floor of the queue area at the fastest speed, followed by several others. The moment they stepped into the queue area, countless pale bone hands broke out of the ground, skeletons, zombies, ghosts...
Countless undead creatures surrounded the mansion, and miserable echoes rang out in the garden. There were all kinds of flower monsters with sharp teeth, tree monsters with bared teeth and claws, and tombstones with big mouths smiling and moving slowly towards this side.
"What's going on?" Stark took a few steps back and stared at the monsters that surrounded him.
Looking closely, the images of these monsters are not very realistic, but more like cartoon characters with four or five heads. However, because of the dark atmosphere, people seem to be in the undead disaster.
Even Strange, who has seen countless monsters, was a little pale when he clenched his staff. At this time, Schiller turned his head to look at him, obviously wanting him to try using magic.
Strange exhaled, tried to concentrate, a golden halo appeared on one hand, and a beam of light shot out instantly.
With a bang, the flower bed in the garden broke into pieces, the soil splashed, and the surrounding skeletons exploded. But before a few people could breathe a sigh of relief, the skeletons swayed together, and the headless skeleton swayed left and right, stretched out his hand to grab his head that had rolled to the side on the floor, and put it back.
This scene obviously only appeared in comedy animated movies, leaving several people speechless. As the saying goes, the most difficult enemies in the world are the enemies in funny cartoons.
Family movies do not have any overly scary or bloody scenes, but it does not mean that facing the enemies in such movies is much easier than facing monsters or killers in horror movies.
The monsters and killers in horror movies may be unsolvable, but they cannot stop superheroes. Even if there is a force of rules to prevent superheroes from defeating or killing him, running away is always no problem.
But the enemies in family cartoons are not like this. In addition to being able to stop you in various bizarre ways, your escape process is bound to be full of accidents. Maybe when a few people turn around, they will fall because of the waxed and too smooth floor, and they will have to do a tap dance on the spot before falling.
In order to avoid this situation, Schiller reached out to stop Stark who was about to take off and use a hand cannon to bombard.
Obviously, this kind of modern weapon cannot play a role in the situation created by cartoons. It is more likely that the shell will suddenly explode and blow Stark's face black, or the armor will simply disintegrate on the spot and set off fireworks, and Stark will fall to the ground and fall on his buttocks, and a series of small stars will appear on his head.
Strange's magic is slightly better. After all, it is also a means beyond the normal attributes, but he just hit the flower bed, which is in line with the attribute that cartoon characters always miss the target, and it can also make the skeleton perform a performance of looking for the head all over the ground, which is not out of line.
But if he really swung his staff and attacked with real weapons, he would be too much like a real wizard, and it would be easy to turn into a fantasy movie such as Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings, and it would be easy to be suppressed by the rules.
Moreover, the three of them are now affected by the atmosphere. Stark is the worst affected and has become a little angry and radical. Strange is slightly better because of his dual cultivation of divine thoughts, but there is no clue for the time being.
Schiller's morbid personality traits are his most original autistic traits. Autistic people have a barrier to communicate with the outside world, and their ability to perceive and respond to emotions is very weak. At this time, this barrier has become a shield, allowing him to filter out most of the influence of the atmosphere.
Bruce has lived in Gotham for many years, and his sensory organs for perceiving the dark and depressing atmosphere have been dulled. At this time, the atmosphere in the haunted mansion has some influence on him, but not much.
So the main force of this battle became Schiller and Bruce, and the most fatal thing is that both of them are too serious.
Sick Schiller's weak sense of atmosphere also means that he is also weak in responding to cheerful emotions. It is unrealistic to expect him to perform family-friendly comedy. The bloody comedy of the Joker is barely acceptable, but it cannot pass the review of Disney.
As for Bruce, he is already Batman, can he still be put together with the word family-friendly?
Bruce's illness has indeed improved a little, but as I said, he is not a very lively person by nature, and his sense of humor is mostly cold humor. The level of Batman's jokes in other universes is that even the Bat Family who admires him the most cannot support him.
From this point of view, this is really an unsolvable situation, and it fully shows that DC is indeed too dark and cannot understand Disney-like humor and joy at all.
While Schiller was thinking about countermeasures, there was a sudden bang in front of the yard, and there was another splash of mud. A black shadow stood up behind the big tree, and then a roar was heard.
"Coward! Didn't I tell you to jump in three, two, one?! You can even climb up such a high building in the zombie universe, why don't you dare to jump again?!"
"How can this be the same?!" A man's voice came: "I told you that this park is wrong. If we had returned to the hotel earlier, you would have eaten chocolate balls in your dream!"
"I'm not dreaming, you idiot... Wait, what is that? Am I dazzled? How can that tree move?"
"How can a tree move?! Venom, don't change the subject..."
"I didn't... Aa ... Although he is rated the same as Iron Man, Captain America and other superheroes, he is not a decent hero, but an anti-hero. He is also a non-human monster who looks like a monster that can scare children. He can still get such a rating.
What does this mean? This means that as long as Venom is a little more restrained, he will be a family-friendly character.
But at this moment, Venom, who had finally found the culprit who threw him over, let out a deafening roar and jumped up on the spot to pounce on the tree monster.
There was another bang, and Venom's forehead hit the upper edge of the queue gate, and he fell heavily to the ground again, with three stars and two birds flying above his head.
"Beep--"
Venom cursed, but was silenced by an inexplicable mysterious force, and Schiller didn't have time to stop him.
The next second, all the monsters in the garden emitted a mysterious light, and their size doubled.
Now everyone knows how to play this game. Any action that does not conform to the style of a family-friendly cartoon will strengthen the monster. Now they really have to think about why they are so serious.
