American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 134 The Inequality Master

After rewarding the White Queen, Xiao Xian switched to a body in a regeneration house in New York, and then once again thought about Jigsaw's strange identity.

Soon, the jigsaw puzzle mark reappeared on Xiao Xian's arm. This time, Xiao Xian did not hesitate. As soon as the mark appeared, he pressed the puzzle mark and chose to actively participate in the jigsaw test.

His vision went black for a moment, then the light returned. Xiao Xian found himself in a very dilapidated-looking cell, with a strange mechanical device on the back of his neck.

Then the Billy doll walked down the stairs outside, saying as it went.

"Welcome to the two brave individuals who have volunteered for the challenge. If you can pass five consecutive levels, you will become Jigsaw's disciple. Level 1." Billy walked down and was stunned when he saw Xiao Xian. How come he remembered taking the puzzle mark from Xiao Xian twice? What's wrong with this guy?

After a brief pause, Billy continued as usual.

"The first game is the balance scale game. There is a large balance scale in front of your cell. You can cut off pieces of flesh from your own body and put them on the scale. After one minute, the flesh on the scale will be slowly pierced through the brain by a screw from the back of your neck."

"Is there someone else next to me?" Xiao Xian looked curiously in the direction of the scales to the other side, but he couldn't see it because of the wall. So Xiao Xian floated slightly in the air and punched through the cell to look at the other side through the hole. There was a young black man he didn't recognize.

"Challenger, please do not damage the game facilities, otherwise you will be disqualified from becoming a disciple of Jigsaw." Billy said when he saw Xiao Xian break through the wall. This guy is too weird. He might as well find a chance to kick him out. Otherwise, Billy was afraid that he might be destroyed by him later.

If it weren't for the rules, Billy would love to kick Xiao Xian out right now.

"Cancel it then," Xiao Xiangang was about to say it didn't matter, since he could force his way in using the blood and flesh left behind by the previous puzzle pieces, when the system notification sounded the next second:

Ding~ Quest: Jigsaw Disciple! Triggered

Quest Name: Jigsaw Disciple!

Mission Description: You have participated in the trial to become a disciple of Jigsaw. Upon completion, you will become a disciple of Jigsaw.

Mission requirements: Clear all five levels and become Jigsaw's disciple.

Mission Reward: Partial access to the Saw Space.

Saw Space: A special space where people marked by Jigsaw are pulled in to participate in a game until they die. Jigsaw and his disciples will be resurrected after dying here.

"Thinking about it carefully, I've long admired Mr. Jigsaw, and I've wanted to become his disciple for a long time." Xiao Xian immediately changed his tone. Although Xiao Xian didn't have a hobby of bringing people in to participate in death games, using this as a storage space was also a great idea.

It would be even better if we could find a way to get Jigsaw and the other Jigsaw disciples out of the space and kill them, turning this place into our own private space.

After all, how could one allow others to sleep peacefully beside one's bed? Although the mission rewards had not yet arrived, in Xiao Xian's view, this place was already part of his sacred and inviolable private property.

As for the vertical saw, it was merely a temporary storage item. The treasures of nature belong to the virtuous, and Xiao Xian felt that he was very virtuous.

For some reason, Xiao Xian felt that Billy's sincere expression might cause a mishap this time.

"The game begins." Limited by the rules, Billy could only announce the start and then leave. Even if he fought, he was no match for Xiao Xian. This guy could punch through a wall, including the steel bars inside. Billy's small body was no match for him.

"Hey~ you're the superhero Xiao Xian, right?" The black guy said to Xiao Xian after Billy left. "You heard his rule, right? The person with less flesh on the scale will have a screw pierce their head. I remember you have super regeneration; even if your head gets blown off, you won't die, right?"

"You know quite a lot. Who are you?" Xiao Xian asked, looking at the black man. He felt that the man looked vaguely familiar.

"I'm just an ordinary citizen, and you're a superhero, right? Since you won't die anyway, don't put any more flesh and blood on the scales. That way, I only need to cut off a tiny bit to survive," the black man said to Xiao Xian.

"Ah ha~" Xiao Xian looked at the black guy. This guy really could open his mouth wide. If he were a Chinese person, or a beautiful character like Gwen, Xiao Xian might consider it. This guy... he wouldn't even sell his ass.

"Tell me first why you volunteered to participate in Jigsaw's trial? And how did you find out about it?" Xiao Xian asked. He felt that this black man looked strangely familiar, but in Xiao Xian's eyes, most black men seemed to be pretty much the same, just a few types, like the random characters in GTA, with a few different models switching back and forth.

"When I was having sex with a woman, her husband came back. He was a bit agitated and was about to shoot me, so I voluntarily followed the puzzle mark. As for the jigsaw, I'm not really sure. When her husband came in and I was hiding under the bed, I saw a note that said 'Jigsaw' and then I got a mark on my arm."

The black guy thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth. A typical superhero might look down on him, but Xiao Xian... the black guy remembered him stealing other people's girlfriends quite a few times. And he'd heard that Hawkeye, one of the Avengers, attacked Xiao Xian because Xiao Xian was trying to steal his girlfriend. The only awkward outcome was that Xiao Xian, acting in self-defense, beat Hawkeye so badly he was severely disabled and committed suicide in prison this afternoon.

"Ah~ then you seem to have deserved to die." Xiao Xian remembered. No wonder the black guy looked familiar. Wasn't he the black guy he saw when he was looking at the information on the Flower Hand Brother? But not the group that was killed by the Flower Hand Brother at night, but the group that played cards with the Flower Hand Brother's wife during the day.

"Huh? You?" The Black man was stunned. "Do you have the right to talk to me like that?"

"Don't you understand that human nature is all about double standards? Besides, I have high moral character and I'm handsome. Look at you, you're so ugly, but your death helps raise the average moral level and average appearance of humanity."

Xiao Xianyi stated righteously, without the slightest hint of remorse, "My actions do not equate to my approval of others doing the same. Since learning inequalities, Xiao Xianyi has never experienced mental anguish, nor has he ever been morally blackmailed by anyone."

After saying that, Xiao Xian took out a special alloy knife coated with anesthetic and cut off his left arm, placing it on a scale. Before Xiao Xian could even retract his hand, his severed left arm had already fully recovered.

"F**k!" The black guy panicked when he saw Xiao Xian put his hand on the scales and slam them down hard. Not wanting to die, he cursed and picked up the knife on the ground, aiming at his left leg, but he couldn't bring himself to cut it off. Under the threat of death, the black guy finally gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, closed his eyes and chopped hard, but only managed to cut a wound and failed to sever his leg.

"Aaaaaah~" Although it wasn't severed, the pain from the wound was real. The black guy rolled around on the ground in agony, letting out a pig-like wail.
