American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 10 Is this Super Heroes or showbiz?
Xiao Xian first went to the supermarket to get some equipment. He bought several crowbars, daggers, machetes and the like and put them in the trunk. He also carried one with him. Unfortunately, he didn't have a gun license, and he had to show his face in front of the camera, otherwise Xiao Xian planned to get a gun for self-defense.

After all, the criminals had guns but he didn't, so he felt a little weak. Although if it was an ordinary pistol, it would only cause pain when it hit Xiao Xian, there would be no other consequences.

Moreover, guns are very easy to get here. Over in Hell's Kitchen, the pancake vendor can easily pull out an AK from under the stall, and the lady selling fruit can also pull out two M&P9s from her apron at any time to give the criminals who cross the line a little local shock.

Then he listened to the radio and checked Twitter. Xiao Xian was not Peter Parker and could not hack into the police communication system. He could only use this method to see if there were any cases that suited him.

To be honest, if Xiao Xian hadn't joined in, he would not have realized that although the crime rate was extremely high, the superhero industry in New York was quite competitive. At least that was the case during the day, but it was not clear at night.

Captain America, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Daredevil and many other heroes are active in New York, which is a real red ocean in the industry.

Small cases were usually over by the time Xiao Xian found out about them. Of course, Xiao Xian was not very interested in them. If someone just stole a car or robbed a bag, Xiao Xian would just hack them to death or chop them into pieces. He would be thrown in jail for sure, and at least he would be wanted and could not escape, and it would be unlikely for him to become famous.

In the past, simply catching a car thief? Not to mention whether he could be caught or not, even if he was caught, he would just be locked up for a while and then released. The resentment from the other party would not be worth Xiao Xianhua's time, energy and gas money. The only benefit was that it might improve the public security in New York.

But what's the use? Xiao Xian doesn't really worry about the public security in New York. Ye Zi is legal here, so who cares about the public security?

It would be good enough if he could stop it when he encountered it. Xiao Xiancai had no interest in going there specially.

Xiao Xian was not sure about the big cases, as the super villains did not come out today, but for bank robberies, terrorist attacks and the like, Xiao Xian would often just see the news on the radio and Twitter, and before he even started the car and reached the destination, they were often solved by other superheroes.

Especially Captain America and Iron Man, the former took a helicopter, and the latter used the rocket propulsion system of the Iron Man suit. Xiao Xian was originally behind in intelligence and speed, and this second-hand Volkswagen couldn't even get the tail gas. Even Spider-Man was faster than Xiao Xian in web-swinging!

He finally encountered a kidnapping case. Iron Man and Captain America were not there, and it was close to him. Before Xiao Xian had time to be happy, he found that the Stone Man from the Fantastic Four happened to be shopping nearby.

Because it was too coincidental, Xiao Xian even suspected that they knew about it in advance and that there was actually a script for this matter.

Besides, Xiao Xian couldn't take on cases that were too big. The other side had a team of professionals with rocket launchers, machine guns, grenades and all kinds of equipment. Xiao Xian only had super regeneration and a knife. Although he would not die if he rushed forward, he would probably jump back and forth between death and regeneration until other superheroes arrived.

The only hope is to scare the other party by repeatedly using the force, but this trick can only be used against small criminals. Xiao Xian has no hope at all against professionals.

Then there are the weird monsters, but Xiao Xian thinks it is better to stay away from such things. Xiao Xian feels that because of his regenerative ability, the difference between him and ordinary people is that he can be tortured by the other party for a longer time. After all, monsters like Tomie who like to be killed are a minority, and most monsters like to kill others.

If he encounters monsters like vampires and zombies, Xiao Xian is simply a blood bag with infinite refills and a field of flesh that can grow heads infinitely.

That's it, provided that the opponent is not on the spiritual side, otherwise if Xiao Xian's soul is swallowed up, it will be a direct result of a GG, and it will be useless even if the physical body can regenerate.

Of course, both tasks are currently available from Tomie, and have not yet been available from Spider-Man. If the tasks really cannot be obtained from a superhero, Xiao Xian can only try the super villain. If that doesn't work, Xiao Xian can only look for weird monsters.

After driving around for a long time, Xiao Xian caught a bicycle thief and a crazy man who was high and wanted to rob. The former waited for the police to come but the owner didn't come back. Xiao Xian handed the thief to the police and left. The latter was staggering and jumping when he walked. After being kicked by Xiao Xian, he fell to the ground and couldn't get up. He lay on the ground with his arms outstretched, thinking he was swimming. Xiao Xian was too lazy to call the police and let the other person swim away. The robbed female student was very grateful to Xiao Xian and took the initiative to ask for his contact information. Unfortunately, although she looked cute, she was too peaceful and not Xiao Xian's type, so she was rejected by Xiao Xian.

If it were in the past, Xiao Xian would definitely not mind making friends. Xiao Xian felt that Tomie should take the blame for this. Although Tomie's real body could make Xiao Xian's sanity level drop wildly and he almost vomited his food, her disguised form was indeed a peerless beauty, with the right curves and curves, a figure that even supermodels could not compare to.

After seeing too many peerless beauties, when you look at other girls, the ones that originally scored seven points can only be rated five points, and the ones that originally scored eight points will only be rated six points. However, the ones that scored ten points will not drop, and the ones that scored nine points will not drop much.

Sitting in the car, Xiao Xian, who had failed in his attempt to become a superhero, checked today's news online. Wow, news about Iron Man, Captain America, The Stone Man and others saving people had already been written and posted. Iron Man, in particular, was directly on the hot search and the headlines of many media outlets. The words used were gorgeous, and Iron Man was highly praised in the words.

There are also ultra-high-definition videos that don’t even shake, and you can tell at a glance that they’re produced using professional equipment.

"No, so fast? This must be a pre-written script! There must be something fishy going on!"

Seeing this, Xiao Xian felt that this matter was even more suspicious. This robbery or something, could it be an actor? No, these days, aren't superhero deeds fake? Can people still be a little sincere with each other? No wonder there are even superhero agencies.

In sharp contrast to several other popular heroes, news about Spider-Man has not appeared in any mainstream media except for a few bloggers and promoters who reposted it themselves. It is obvious that his popularity has been suppressed. If Xiao Xian hadn't searched for him specifically, he wouldn't have found any news about Spider-Man.

Even the Daily Bugle, Spider-Man's old partner in movies and comics, did not report on Spider-Man, but instead praised Iron Man extensively.

Among the most popular people, it goes without saying that the most popular one is Iron Man Tony Stark, who is not only a billionaire, but also the owner of Stark Industries and Stark Superhero Agency.

In addition, Captain America and the Thing have signed contracts with agencies. The company Captain America signed to has a military background, and the Thing is affiliated with Mr. Fantastic's agency. Only Spider-Man, Xiao Xian checked and found that he was not signed to any agency. Is the superhero circle so dark? How come it is almost the same as the entertainment industry? It is so difficult to debut without signing a contract.

At this moment, Xiao Xian suddenly realized that the changes in the superheroes were not just a change in the personalities of the superheroes. As a group of people who possessed the world's top combat power, their changes had a profound impact on the world.

If there weren't a hypocritical superhero like Homelander, the world might have become a world of superheroes fighting for supremacy.

Xiao Xian nowadays naturally cannot change the overall environment of the superhero circle, but Xiao Xian does not have to change this.

"If you can't beat them, join them!"

Picking up his phone, Xiao Xian looked for recruitment notices on the websites of several superhero agencies, intending to submit a few resumes. At worst, he would suffer a loss in commission and it would be ok if the contract was signed more strictly. He would first use the platform and intelligence of large companies to build up his reputation.

With the help of the platform, as for whether to maintain this environment after growing up, it depends on whether this environment is beneficial or harmful to Xiao Xian. If it is beneficial, maintain it; if it is harmful, oppose it.

As for the contract, if it really doesn't work out, just cancel it and see if you can find the next party to pay the penalty.
