American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 152

After trying to use the Dimensional Lord's authority, Xiao Xian discovered that even the Dimensional Lord's power could not detect the system, let alone analyze it.

Of course, Xiao Xian was not surprised at all. After all, some of the permissions for this space had been given out by the system as a task reward, which clearly showed that the system was stronger than this space.

Returning to the real world from the dimensional space, a gust of wind made Xiao Xian's clothes rustle. He glanced out the window and saw that the sky outside had completely darkened, with thick clouds that were occasionally torn apart by lightning, revealing brief but dazzling flashes of light.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning ripped across the sky, followed by a deafening roar of thunder, as if the sky itself were being torn apart.

If this were in the East, someone would definitely take a picture and post it on social media asking who this fellow Daoist is undergoing tribulation here, but Xiao Xian's first reaction upon seeing this scene was Thor.

"Could it be that Thor is back?" Xiao Xian stroked his chin, intending to call Black Widow to ask. Thor's own strength in Marvel is not to be underestimated, and he is also a second-generation god. Even if Odin, the king of gods, went to another dimension, Xiao Xian would not be a match for him.

After all, Xiao Xian's dimensional space is only so big, and his world origin is only so small. He can't exert much of his ability to do whatever he wants. Moreover, even if he could win, let alone lose, Xiao Xian doesn't really want to waste his pitifully small reserves of world origin.

"It wasn't Thor, it was you. You're the one who attracted it."

A pleasant voice suddenly came from behind. Xiao Xian turned around and saw a beautiful white-haired mage sitting on a table. Her long hair flowed like a waterfall, dazzlingly white. She wore a magnificent mage robe, the color of which was dark blue and decorated with golden runes and patterns, giving her a solemn and sacred feeling.

The beautiful sorceress looked at Xiao Xian with a half-smile in her crimson eyes. Her bare, jade-like feet swayed casually on the edge of the table, displaying flawless beauty. Her toes were long and elegant, her skin smooth, like meticulously sculpted works of art, every inch of them perfect and flawless.

"Who are you?" Xiao Xian asked, looking at the girl in front of him, completely unable to sense even a trace of fear from the fear absorbed by Pennywise. The girl in front of him was the most beautiful person Xiao Xian had seen since he came to this world, and the charming allure she exuded was far superior to that of Tomie.

A name was already on the tip of his tongue, but the girl in front of him was completely different from the one in Xiao Xian's memory, both in terms of appearance and temperament.

"Didn't you already guess who I am?" the girl said with a smile to Xiao Xian.

"Ancient One?" Xiao Xian looked at the girl in disbelief. Who would have thought that the Ancient One in this world was a super beauty! And she had white hair and red eyes. Wasn't she bald in the movie version?

"That's right, it's me." Gu Yi snapped her fingers, a look of great satisfaction on her face, and said to Xiao Xian, "Guess why I came to find you."

"Could it be because of that event?" Xiao Xian thought for a moment and guessed.

"Yes and no. The reason I'm looking for you is that you've dragged too many people into Jigsaw Space, or rather, Elysium now." The Ancient One pointed her slender white fingers at the dark clouds and lightning outside the window and said, "Look, the world's will is already issuing a warning."

"You mean, this really is a tribulation of lightning?" Xiao Xian's lips twitched.

"That's right. If we compare the world to a pasture, then souls are the cattle and sheep. Your actions are undoubtedly stealing the wealth of this world to support the growth of your dimensional space. It's just that because you are a person of this world, or at least that's what the world's will think, and you've even killed some monsters, the lightning hasn't struck yet. But if you continue like this, things might get complicated."

"Do you really think the things of this world are so easy to take? According to the will of the world, I would be better off sending you back to your dimensional space today, or even devouring your dimensional space."

"??!?!" Xiao Xian was shocked upon hearing this. From Gu Yi's words, she knew that he was not actually from this world but a transmigrator? Did Gu Yi know about his system?

"You know I'm not from this world?" Xiao Xian didn't pay much attention to what Gu Yi said about wanting to attack him. If Gu Yi really wanted to attack him or even seize his dimensional space, she wouldn't need to talk about these things with him.

"I knew it from the first day you came into this world," Gu Yi said, looking at Xiao Xian. "I've been watching you. There's something about you that I can't see through."

"??!!" Xiao Xian panicked for a moment upon hearing this, but he wasn't too flustered. If Gu Yi wanted to take his system, she would have done it already. Besides, he had already become a dimensional lord, so the system might have a backdoor. Throwing it away might not be a bad thing.

"Relax, I'm not planning to steal your system. That's what you call the thing on you, right?" Gu Yi stood up, slightly levitating as he walked to Xiao Xian, putting his arm around Xiao Xian's shoulder, acting like a close buddy.

"I'm here mainly to teach you a method that allows you to pull people from this world into your dimensional space without being resisted by the world."

"What method?" Xiao Xian asked warily, smelling the fragrance emanating from Gu Yi and feeling the soft touch on his arm.

If possible, Xiao Xian didn't really want to pay attention to it, as it was clearly a trap. But he couldn't beat the Ancient One, and as a dimensional lord, he happened to be within the Ancient One's area of ​​responsibility.

"In your understanding, it's about completing world missions and accumulating points, or in your Chinese way, it can be called accumulating merit."

Ancient One, dressed in a sorceress's robe, had her arm around Xiao Xian, seemingly oblivious to the fact that her ample bosom was pressed against his arm. Of course, it's also possible she was doing it on purpose. Looking at Xiao Xian, Ancient One said warmly...

"As long as you have enough points, or rather, enough merit, then whether it's recruiting people from this world or directly setting up a ritual to obtain the world's origin, it's all possible."

"Um..." Xiao Xian looked closely at Gu Yi's flawless face and tentatively asked, "Are there certain positions or jobs that can earn merit points?"

"That's right, young man, you know a lot~ You're very insightful. What I'm about to tell you is that the position of Sorcerer Supreme is a great position for accumulating merit. It has high social status, good benefits, no need to clock in or out, flexible working hours, and a lot of free magical knowledge. How about it, are you tempted?" Gu Yi hugged Xiao Xian, very enthusiastically, making the position of Sorcerer Supreme sound even more desirable than a civil servant.

"Uh..." Xiao Xian was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. He had already become a dimensional lord, so wouldn't it be a bit like stealing from his own position if he were also part-time as the Sorcerer Supreme? Besides, in the Ancient One movie, he even put on an act to trick Doctor Strange into taking over, so why wasn't he even putting on an act to trick him into taking over now? He was just being sexually assaulted.
