The man who had shouted angrily was knocked down by a punch from Nameless.
She crossed her arms, her gaze icy as she glanced at the writhing Landlord on the ground, letting out a cold huff. "Idiot, can't you see those strange weapons?"
It was nothing short of a miracle that someone who couldn't even comprehend the situation had managed to survive this long!
Acorus frowned slightly, ignoring the embarrassing uncle. She simply instructed everyone not to act recklessly; after all, she had witnessed Peter shatter Kabaneri with a single punch.
The mysterious individuals from the same place as that lord possessed powers that were not to be underestimated. The fact that they hadn't forcibly taken the biochemical bomb from her hands was already a sign of their restraint.
...
Coulson had given up on understanding the mindset of ancient people. When it came to reasoning, they only wanted to talk with their fists, and when demonstrating with fists, he feared hurting their pride.
Ah, what a difficult situation!
Shaking his head, Coulson decided to ignore it and waved his hand for the alert troops to stand down.
"Excuse me, sir, please wait! I also have a weapon gifted by Mr. Peter!" In the tense atmosphere, a young boy approached from a distance, wrapped in a red cloak. His exposed skin was unlike anyone else's, making his uniqueness easily recognizable.
Coulson stopped in his tracks and looked up, signaling for the guards to let the boy through. He squinted his eyes. "Do you speak English?"
This was what had made him halt; an otherworldly being who spoke English—
"Old English? Hmm? This is knowledge my grandfather taught me!" The boy scratched his head and smiled innocently, surprised that what had once been dismissed as mere characters now held unexpected significance.
...
After some conversation, Coulson nodded in satisfaction and exchanged a hundred doses of serum for the biochemical bomb in the boy's hands.
The boy's name was Ikoma. His grandfather had been a sailor, and English was a language he needed for his work. But that wasn't the main point; what mattered was that Coulson realized something important.
This other world had a close connection to Earth, and language was one of the factors that could not be ignored.
The presence of English indicated that this world also had countries where English was the primary language.
The accumulation of such information made him realize that the other world must have had connections with Earth long ago. Even those vanished prehistoric civilizations did not perish in the torrents of history; instead, they had moved on to other worlds.
"My lord, I wonder if you have any potions that can turn Kabaneri back into humans?" Ikoma looked at Coulson with hopeful eyes, wondering if he had developed a serum targeting Kabaneri that could allow him to become human again.
"Kabaneri?" Coulson furrowed his brow. This was another valuable piece of information. Shaking his head, he replied, "We haven't encountered your Kabaneri yet. However, if you have a sample, we could study it and perhaps create a corresponding potion!"
"I am Kabaneri!" Ikoma did not hide it. In the face of despair, he wanted to grasp any glimmer of hope. He had had enough of being treated as a monster by his teammates.
"Oh!" Coulson propped his chin on his hand and examined the young man before him. In fact, he had noticed something strange about him at first glance. After pondering for a moment, he smiled and said, "I need to draw some of your blood as a research sample."
"Sure!" Ikoma nodded.
Soon, a group of people in white coats appeared before him, fiddling with strange instruments. They drew a vial of blood from his wrist and then disappeared from sight.
Coulson continued to converse with the young man. In a short amount of time, Ikoma provided him with a wealth of valuable information.
About half an hour passed under the tense atmosphere surrounding them. Coulson smiled apologetically at the young man and said, "Based on our research results, we currently cannot resolve your symptoms; it will require quite some time for further study."
Ikoma's hopes dimmed at this news. Just then, he heard the voice of the mysterious figure in his ear: "According to your route, you should be heading to Vajra City, right?"
After nodding, Coulson continued, "There is someone there who might be able to solve your problem. He is also the inventor of this weapon. If you can find him, he will likely be very willing to help you!"
As a research enthusiast, encountering something like Kabaneri would likely prompt Tony to extend a helping hand enthusiastically towards someone who had jumped into the fray.
After considering this, Coulson decided not to linger any longer and signaled for everyone to march along another path.
—The train route was not suitable for their journey.
…
The next day dawned bright.
Thick smoke rose from the Station. After news spread of the divine being's arrival, the entire Station buzzed with life—something it had never experienced before.
Nothing was more surprising than having a divine presence in the Station!
Even though this Divine One had done nothing yet, the significance represented by this identity brought comfort to countless people, freeing them from the fear and attacks of Kabaneri.
High above in the sky, Chen Fan woke from his slumber. After enjoying a meal prepared by J.A.R.V.I.S., he listened to the news relayed by the artificial intelligence butler.
The academy was preparing to accept his invitation, and all members would begin their migration to the otherworld, becoming the first residents of his territory. Meanwhile, the Sentinels would transition into city management for the new territory, maintaining public order.
This news made the weary Chen Fan squint his eyes; it was indeed good news. The boy felt much more energized, and at that moment, Tony brought another piece of good news.
“Sir… the matters regarding the territory have been confirmed. From now on, the Otherworldly Asian Continent and its surrounding seas belong to you!” This had originally been a bargaining chip agreed upon by various nations. Tony had merely confirmed it with them without even leaving his office; through information exchange, he completed the necessary procedures.
“Then let’s build a city first!” Chen Fan nodded while yawning. After all, soon Katy Group, Stark Industries, and the academy would be arriving. Without a place to accommodate them, that wouldn’t do.
In truth, he could no longer tolerate the backwardness of ancient times.
Tony smiled as well; even if Chen Fan didn’t take action, he was prepared to proceed with building the city.
After all, the population migrating over would be substantial.
Just among the top hundred companies from both worlds, there were over a hundred thousand people willing to settle in this otherworld. It was impossible to manage without a modern city!
Fortunately, establishing a city wasn’t an urgent matter. The top companies from both worlds couldn’t just migrate overnight; dealing with all the troublesome paperwork would take several months.
Moreover, which construction team would dare come to lay bricks without clearing out the Kabaneri first?
