The only player in the Marvel universe.

Chapter 79 Come here!

Are you under mind control?

Upon seeing this, Du Mu was reminded of the mission's name and instantly imagined a two-hour-long storyline.

He looked away, trying to find the faceless man holding a phone with pink hearts on the screen.

Instead of finding the faceless man, they spotted a man in a purple suit.

[NPC: Zebdia Kilgrave]

Codename: Purple Man

【Favourability: 0】

[Commentary: Hypnosis, BDSM, bondage, placement...]

Du Mu was dumbfounded.

This was the first time he had ever seen an NPC with so many keywords, and each one was more unplayable than the last.

This guy is hardly a purple-haired guy; he'd be more like a doujinshi protagonist.

Kilgrave was leisurely savoring his meal, while Jessica stood expressionless beside him, like a soulless puppet.

Clearly, the person controlling Jessica is Kilgrave.

What an enviable... no, a despicable superpower!

However, judging from his small stature, he probably couldn't withstand even a fraction of Jessica's strength.

In addition, Du Mu also saw a familiar figure, who turned out to be Erica, Matt's ex-girlfriend!

[NPC: Erica Natchis]

[Favorability: -30]

[Comment: The Hand's top assassin, Daredevil's girlfriend]

[Status: Under mind control]

Like Jessica, Erica also stood beside Kilgrave, one on each side like bodyguards.

Du Mu never expected that Erica had also been controlled by Kilgrave.

She didn't have Jessica's strength, and she just hoped that Kilgrave hadn't had time to do anything yet, otherwise Matt's head would be shining with rage.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a red stick smashed through the glass window and shot rapidly toward Kilgrave!

Before Kilgrave could react, Erica beside him had already made her move, raising two tridents to precisely block the flying short stick.

Seeing this, Kilgrave was both shocked and furious, and shouted angrily, "Who is it?!"

Bang! !

The restaurant walls shattered instantly!

A burly black man burst through the wall, shoving Erica aside like a bull, and charged toward Kilgrave!

[NPC: Luke Cage]

【Favourability: 0】

[Comment: Dark and tough, a man who could withstand even a fraction of Jessica's strength]

Before Luke Cage could even get close, Jessica stepped in front of Kilgrave and slammed her fist into Luke Cage's head!

Bang!

A dull thud followed!

Luke Cage was sent flying backward, crashing hard into the load-bearing wall, which immediately cracked with spiderweb-like fissures.

At the same time, Matt, dressed in Daredevil's costume, jumped in through the window.

Taking advantage of the moment when Jessica was blocking Luke Cage, he quickly rushed towards Kilgrave, attempting to subdue him.

But just then, a trident came from behind and pierced Matt's back.

Matt let out a muffled thud and staggered, nearly falling over.

"Stop him!"

Kilgrave realized what was happening and immediately shouted.

At his command, the previously stunned waiters and diners in the restaurant suddenly swarmed towards Matt like rugby players.

Matt didn't dare to lay a hand on these ordinary people. After dodging several attacks, he was eventually overpowered by the frenzied crowd and pinned to the ground.

Looking at Matt who was being suppressed, Kilgrave sneered, "It's you again, Daredevil. I didn't expect you to bring an accomplice this time. You almost succeeded."

"asshole!!"

Luke Cage stood up again and angrily charged at Kilgrave once more.

However, Kilgrave only glanced at him indifferently.

"Stop right there."

As soon as he finished speaking, Luke Cage, who had been furious, actually stopped, his eyes gradually becoming vacant.

This is Kilgrave's special ability.

The Purple Man releases a pheromone through his skin, and those who inhale or come into skin contact with this pheromone can be mentally controlled by the Purple Man through words.

Even if it's an order to commit suicide, the other party will carry it out without hesitation!

It was this same ability that allowed Kilgrave to easily control Jessica and Erica, and now he has also taken control of Luke Cage.

"Oh no!"

Matt's mood plummeted the moment he realized that Luke Cage was completely under Kilgrave's control.

In recent days, Hell's Kitchen has seen multiple riots, with several complete strangers killing each other. Matt followed the clues and found Kilgrave, discovering that he has the ability to control others.

Not only that, Matt also discovered that Kilgrave had actually taken control of Erica. He turned green with anger and rushed over to try to rescue Erica, but was severely injured by the controlled Erica.

Matt couldn't understand it either.

Why is it that every time he sees Erica, she doesn't remember him, and why is she always so ruthless?

Kilgrave had intended to control Matt, but Matt's willpower was strong enough that he managed to break free from Kilgrave's control and escape.

But Matt didn't give up and continued to look for opportunities to save Erica.

During this time, he encountered Luke Cage, who was also investigating Kilgrave. Coincidentally, Luke Cage's one-night stand, whom he met by chance in bed, was also controlled by Kilgrave.

So the two hit it off and devised this plan to save his girlfriend, intending to ambush Kilgrave and subdue him quickly, without giving him a chance to use his powers.

However, their plan failed.

Not only did they fail to subdue Kilgrave, they also lost a teammate in the process.

Now, Kilgrave has Jessica on his left, Erica on his right, and Luke Cage, that black and hard beast, between his legs.

With such a star-studded lineup, even if Matt were to unleash his full potential on the spot, he would have no chance of winning.

Surrounded by three powerful allies, Kilgrave smugly said to Matt, "Daredevil, so what if you can resist my abilities? Your companions still obediently become my pets. Once I kill you, no one can defy my will. Soon I will become the king of Hell's Kitchen..."

"Gurgle, gurgle!"

An untimely voice suddenly rang out.

Kilgrave paused for a moment, then turned to look at the source of the sound.

Du Mu was sitting in a corner of the restaurant, drinking ice water through a straw, watching them leisurely, just like a bystander.

Seeing Kilgrave looking over, Du Mu chuckled and said, "Why are you looking at me? You guys continue. What are you going to become in Hell's Kitchen or something again?"

Kilgrave: "..."

Matt: "..."

He had been so focused on Kilgrave that he hadn't even noticed that Du Mu was there.

Matt yelled, "Run! He can control everyone!"

"It's too late."

Kilgrave snorted, assuming that Du Mu was simply sitting too far away to hear his instructions.

He immediately shouted at Du Mu, "Come here!"

"Gurgle, gurgle!"

Du Mu continued drinking his ice water, unmoved.

"Come here!"

Kilgrave frowned and raised his voice again.

"Gurgle, gurgle!"
