The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 393 Follow-up
Returning to Washington together were the other surviving superheroes. They all looked tired, with confusion and bewilderment in their eyes, as if they had just awakened from a long and bizarre nightmare.

"what happened?"

"what happened?"

Everyone asked one question after another, but after looking at each other, they found that no one could figure out what was going on.

At this moment, the snow and wind that originally shrouded Washington began to gradually dissipate as if it had received some kind of instruction. The ice covering various parts of the city also melted rapidly. The sound of dripping water rang out on the streets, as if it was a symphony of the city's thawing.

The bodies of those residents who had been frozen before gradually recovered. They first looked at everything around them blankly, their eyes full of confusion.

They didn't even know what was happening to them. In their memories, time was still a few weeks ago, when Washington was still a prosperous and peaceful scene. But now, the streets have turned into a mess of ruins, with broken walls and broken building debris everywhere. The huge contrast made them terrified and confused, and they stood there at a loss.

Even someone as smart as Tony was lost in deep thought at this moment. He really couldn't figure out Wes's purpose.

The series of things Weiss did in Washington seemed grand, but seemed to have no practical significance and was simply a waste of time.

But Tony knew that now was not the time to think about this. The most urgent task was to deal with the difficult problems at hand.

After all, so many superheroes sacrificed their lives in this sudden incident. They all gave their lives to protect this city and the world. Their affairs must be properly handled. This is the most basic respect for the heroes.

The army responded quickly, with a large number of soldiers stationed in Washington and deployed at key locations in the city to prevent any further accidents.

At the same time, how to explain this matter to the international community has also become a difficult problem.

This matter has a huge impact. If it is not handled properly, it is likely to cause international panic and chaos, so we must find a way to minimize the impact. This series of complicated things weighs heavily on Tony's mind, requiring him to worry about it and plan countermeasures.

For the next month, the entire Washington was plunged into a tense and busy reconstruction work.

Construction workers toiled day and night, and various construction vehicles shuttled through the streets and alleys, carrying construction materials and making bursts of roaring sounds.

Finally, the reconstruction of the White House was completed and it once again stood in the center of Washington. Its solemn and majestic appearance seemed to declare to the world the city's tenacity and indomitable spirit.

In order to commemorate the sacrifice of superheroes, a grand funeral was held. On the day of the funeral, the sky was gloomy, as if even the heavens were mourning for these heroes.

The streets were lined with people who came to mourn. They had solemn expressions, tears in their eyes, and flowers in their hands, silently bidding farewell to the heroes.

The names of the heroes were engraved one by one on the tall monument. The golden words sparkled in the sun. It was the glory they wrote with their lives and would be remembered forever by the world.

As time went by, people's lives gradually returned to normal, the city's pain seemed to be slowly healed, the streets regained their former bustle and prosperity, people began to get busy with their own lives, and that thrilling incident was gradually buried deep in memory.

However, one day, their peaceful life was disrupted once again. As we all know, school bullying is a thorny problem in every country. It's like a shadow lurking beneath the pristine paradise of school, constantly surfacing and causing pain and distress to those young people who should be growing up carefree.

Teenagers are in a special stage where they are eager to express themselves and seek attention from others, but some of them choose to express their so-called "extraordinariness" through wrong and violent means, building their own happiness on the pain of others, thus giving rise to countless heartbreaking bullying incidents.

Scorpius Green is such a poor guy. He is like a frightened little rabbit. He lives in fear in the campus, a place that should be full of sunshine.

Just because of his dazzling red hair, which should have been a unique and eye-catching symbol, it became the reason why he was excluded and bullied by his classmates.

His classmates always looked at him strangely, pointed at him, played pranks on him or bullied him from time to time. Being in such an environment for a long time also made him sensitive and humble.

At school, he always tried his best to hide himself, keeping his head down as much as possible when walking, and silently moving among the crowd, hoping that he could become less conspicuous, like a transparent person. As long as he was not noticed by others, perhaps he could suffer less harm.

However, his red hair was too eye-catching. No matter how hard he tried to keep a low profile, he was like a fire in the darkness and was always easily targeted by those with malicious intentions.

That day, during the break, Scorpius Green walked carefully to his locker as usual, preparing to take the books he would need for the next class.

He had just opened the cabinet and before he could reach in, there was a loud "bang" and the cabinet was roughly closed. The huge impact force almost pinched his hand.

Green was startled and raised his head angrily, but when he saw who closed the cabinet, the anger that had just surged up in his heart disappeared without a trace in an instant, and was replaced by deep fear. He was like a mouse being stared at by a cat. He immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at the other person, and his body began to tremble slightly unconsciously.

The man who closed the cabinet was a black man, as tall as a hill, and exuding an intimidating aura.

He is the school's notorious bully - Carl, who often relies on his strong physique to bully other students in order to satisfy his twisted vanity.

Moreover, it was said that he had close ties with gangs outside the school, which made everyone even more afraid of him. On weekdays, when people saw him, they would want to take a detour for fear of getting into trouble with this plague god.

And today, this bully somehow targeted Green and seemed ready to have some fun with him.

"Yo, Green."

The corners of Carl's mouth rose slightly, revealing a malicious smile. To Green, that smile was like the smile of a devil, which made him feel creepy.

"Hello, Carl." Green responded tremblingly, his voice as small as a mosquito's hum. He shrank his body as much as possible, trying to make himself look smaller, as if this could avoid Carl's oppressive gaze.

But he knew in his heart that he would probably suffer torture again today.
