Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life

However, from another perspective, this thing can be said to be a natural expert in slow slicing, after all, each time it weighs a maximum of about 100g, plus that mockingly pink poop.

Sherlock decisively classified this thing as a torture device, reinstalled it, and put it into his four-dimensional pocket.

As for the remaining Chengdu Heart, which can generate tentacles indefinitely.

Sherlock only began to study it after washing it a full 100 times.

The good news is that this thing is indeed exactly as Sherlock initially tested, with absolutely no cost and anyone can use it. As for the previous user dying from constipation, it was most likely due to his own actions.

The bad news is that Sherlock finds it incredibly difficult to analyze this thing, and most importantly, it seems to involve dimensional issues.

Fortunately, although this thing looks dangerous, it is not actually that dangerous. Even though it involves dimensions, it is not a dark dimension like Dormammu. It feels more like an unclaimed dimension or a dimension where people can just lie down and relax.

After a long period of analysis, Sherlock finally came to a conclusion.

That means Scarlett Johansson's suspicions were indeed correct; this thing is just too similar to her own style.

What actually works is a set of rune arrays that continuously summon an infinite number of octopus tentacles of varying lengths and even thicknesses, while the Chengdu Heart is simply a product of the creator's perverse sense of humor.

The creator probably never imagined that someone would actually be able to stuff this thing in for the sake of power, and even die from constipation.

As for the rune array, Sherlock hadn't figured out what it was yet, and he devoted most of his time to analyzing it, to the point that he almost forgot about time altogether, disappearing without a trace for a week.

If Zhao Weike hadn't seen the lights on in Sherlock's workshop every night, he probably would have thought Sherlock had secretly gone off to party there again.

This week has been quite eventful and noisy.

In the community, Sister Hua emerged from her confinement this week, looking much more energetic. She even started cooperating with Zhao Weike to process her medical license application while also learning to enjoy life with Helen.

Even Doro has returned to his original form, and looking at Sherlock's workshop every day, he seems to be starting to miss Sherlock a little.

Outside the community, terrorist attacks began to occur frequently throughout the United States. Strangely, no matter who came to the scene, no explosive material could be detected. This matter even alarmed the CIA. Apart from the IRS, it can be said that the entire United States was doing its best to find the terrorists.

Chapter 446 Zhao Weike: Sherlock, have you finally stopped being human?

Originally, this matter should have had nothing to do with Sherlock or even Zhao Weike, until Pepper called and told Zhao Weike something.

Happy was caught in the blast of the terrorist attack on his way to pick him up from get off work and is currently in a hospital in Los Angeles. Tony is on his way.

The news made Zhao Weike unable to ignore the surrounding terrorist attack, and he immediately decided to go and see what was going on with Sherlock.

However, the moment Zhao Weike stormed into Sherlock's house and kicked open the door to Sherlock's workshop as usual, the scene before him made him instinctively swear.

Holy crap!

The reason why the well-informed Zhao Weike was so shocked that he even swore subconsciously was simple: when Zhao Weike kicked open the door of Sherlock's workshop, it was not Sherlock who appeared.

Instead, it's a creature covered in tentacles like an octopus, a sight that's enough to make you feel like your sanity has been reduced to zero!

Seemingly drawn to Zhao Weike's profanity, the giant tentacle mass began to slowly wriggle. Upon seeing this, Zhao Weike almost instinctively assumed that Sherlock had been swallowed by this Cthulhu-like creature and drew his gun without hesitation.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang!

As a top assassin at the Mainland Hotel, the infamous Night Demon, Zhao Weike may not be outstanding in other areas, but his American Iaijutsu has definitely reached a level that places him among the top few in the world.

Combined with the typical American Iaijutsu skill of emptying the magazine, Zhao Weike completed the entire process in less than 3 seconds.

On the other side, however, there was no roar or howl like a wild beast that Zhao Weike had imagined; instead, there was only a familiar and exasperated voice.

"Fuck you! Zhao Weike! You trying to murder me?"

Zhao Weike, who had emptied his magazine and was ready to run away, even taking out his phone to call the Avengers to deal with the Cthulhu in front of him, stopped abruptly after hearing this furious roar.

With eyes full of doubt, he slowly turned his head to look at the mass of Cthulhu in the room. After staring in disbelief as Sherlock's head slowly squeezed out of the tentacles, he blurted out a question to Sherlock on a whim.

"Sherlock, so you've finally decided to stop being human?"

Sherlock: #(°Д°）/(.□.)

Sherlock, who had already been furious after using his tentacles to withstand a wave of Zhao Weike's skills, suddenly felt his blood pressure rise after hearing Zhao Weike's words.

Without saying a word, he darkened his face and controlled his tentacles, ignoring Zhao Weike's constant cries of "Ya me dae," and forcibly dragged Zhao Weike into the room.

Ten minutes later, at Helen's family dining table, Helen, Hua Jie, Doro, and Laura stared in disbelief as two tentacle monsters named Zhao Weike and Sherlock frantically fought over food.

After a while, Helen rubbed her head, looking a bit annoyed, and asked Sherlock.

"Let me sort this out. Sherlock, the reason you became like this is because something went wrong while you were experimenting with an unknown rune, and that's why you ended up like this?"

"uh-huh!"

"Then, because Old Zhao emptied your magazine and mocked you, you used the pills you made under such circumstances to forcibly turn Old Zhao into this state, which lasted for about a week?"

"uh-huh!"

Hearing Sherlock's reply, Helen took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress her anger before speaking to Sherlock in a somewhat stiff tone.

"Can you say anything other than 'uh-huh'?"

Upon hearing Helen's question, Sherlock swallowed what was in his mouth and then turned to Doro, speaking to him with a hint of annoyance.

"Doro, stop looking and stop drooling! My tentacles aren't going to be used to make teppanyaki for you!"

Upon hearing Sherlock's words, Doro, who was starry-eyed and drooling over Sherlock's octopus tentacles, didn't even change his expression. Instead, he turned his head and fixed his gaze on Zhao Weike, who was frantically stuffing things into his mouth using the number and length of his tentacles.

This made Sherlock's face darken instantly. He rolled his eyes at Doro in annoyance before speaking.

"Zhao Weike's won't do either! Laura, you need to control your friends!"

When Sherlock turned around and saw that Laura had the same expression as Doro, he was somewhat speechless. It's true that you can't sleep in the same bed with two different kinds of people.

Fortunately, Helen was ultimately reliable. She glared at the two little ones who were drooling like crazy, which finally made them calm down.

On the contrary, Zhao Weike showed no resistance to his transformation into a tentacle monster, frantically stuffing food into his mouth while talking to Helen.

"It's only been a week, so there's no problem. Besides, I feel that this form is much more interesting and fun than the human form. After all, according to Sherlock, these tentacles seem to be able to infinitely control their length, size, and even thickness?"

Hearing Zhao Weike's lewd words, Helen's face flushed red, and she seemed to be unable to look Zhao Weike in the eye. Zhao Weike, on the other hand, gave Helen a wicked smile before turning his head to look at Sherlock with some confusion.

"But why am I so hungry?"

Upon hearing Zhao Weike's question, Sherlock silently thought to himself, "You Europeans are really good at this," but he rolled his eyes and didn't voice his thoughts. Instead, he explained the reason to Zhao Weike.

"That's normal. Your body has just adapted to this situation, so it naturally needs a lot of energy to maintain the tentacle monster's appearance. With a little control, you can actually mimic a human form with one tentacle. Of course, the original tentacle monster appearance is definitely the most comfortable."

When Sherlock got to this point, he even demonstrated it to Zhao Weike. And you know what? After turning into a tentacle monster, even his body shape and height could be customized with tentacles.

After seeing Sherlock's demonstration, Zhao Weike's eyes lit up, and he even looked at Helen with a sense of eager anticipation.

This scene, witnessed by Sherlock, even made the corners of his mouth twitch. He impatiently placed Doro behind his head and held him in place with his tentacles before continuing.

"Don't worry about Happy, I'll take Sister Hua over later. Zhao Weike, you're not getting any younger, you need to be more careful!"

After saying this, Sherlock finished his milk, then with a flick of his tentacles, he and Flower Sister disappeared from the spot.

It wasn't until Sherlock had been gone for a while that Helen, whose face was flushed, seemed to realize something and turned to look at Zhao Weike, who was still a tentacle monster.

"Old Zhao, are you sure Sherlock won't be mistaken for a monster and killed on the spot?"

Upon hearing Helen's words, Zhao Weike was also taken aback, and then an uncertain look appeared on his face. He scratched his head with his tentacles and said to Helen.

"It shouldn't be that bad, right? They're all people of status..."

Chapter 447 Passionate Brawl

"Fuck your mother, come out and fight me one-on-one!"

"Fuck your mother! You think you're scared of me? You're a spineless mollusk!"

"Oh, my short temper! Today I'm going to show you what a real thousand hands technique is all about!"

"Heh heh, take this crow taking flight from the plane!"

……

In the VIP ward of the First Affiliated Hospital of Los Angeles, Sherlock and Tony, both in tentacled forms, were wrestling like two fighting toddlers in the spacious ward floor.

There are no tricks, no killer moves, no weapons; all that exists is the raw, visceral passion of men's fists and the trash talk filled with mutual disdain.

Well, in fact, the two of them fought in a chaotic and disorganized manner. Apart from the trash talk they exchanged, the actual damage they caused was not much.

As for the reason, well, on the one hand, it was the first time Tony had ever fought a tentacle monster in his life, and on the other hand, Sherlock had transformed into a tentacle monster once in both of his lives.

Both Tony's and Sherlock's sides were experiencing this for the first time.

Especially Sherlock. If he were still in human form and only controlled his limbs, Sherlock could definitely pin Tony, that bastard, to the ground and beat him to a pulp with his young and strong body.

But now Sherlock has transformed into a tentacle monster. As we all know, having too many limbs inevitably leads to some chaos. However, Sherlock now understands why octopuses need so many brains.

This is a real problem if you don't have a brain!

As for why these two were fighting in Happy's hospital room, the reason is actually quite simple. In fact, both Sherlock and Tony share responsibility for this incident.

Sherlock completely forgot to greet Tony when he arrived. He simply used his tentacles to wrap around Sister Hua and used the power of the Space Stone to appear in the ward. Most importantly, Sherlock was the first person to appear in the ward.

Tony was already overwhelmed with Happy's injury when he turned around and saw a thing that could instantly reduce one's sanity to zero, consisting of nothing but tentacles and nothing but a head, appearing in the hospital room.

Tony's first reaction was naturally to punch that guy in the head.

If that punch hadn't shattered Doro behind Sherlock's head like an equipment drop, and if it hadn't been for the appearance of the Flower Sister right afterward, Tony probably would have already started summoning that 'Anti-Self Armor'.

However, even without summoning his armor, Tony and Sherlock can't just stop fighting now. From Sherlock's perspective, it's unfair to come to help only to get beaten up.

Sitting on the sofa in the hospital room, Pepper Potts stared speechlessly at the tentacle monster and Tony rolling around on the floor, her eyes never stopping.

Despite being extremely worried about Happy's injury, for some reason, after Sherlock arrived, that worry turned into speechlessness at the scene before him.

Unlike Chili Pepper, Doro, who was being held in Chili Pepper's arms, showed no concern whatsoever when he saw the two people wrestling in the open space. Instead, he was filled with excitement, as if he didn't want the drama to get out of control.

One minute they're cheering Sherlock on, the next they're giving Tony advice, as if they're afraid the two of them haven't been beaten to a pulp.

While Tony and Sherlock were passionately (and clumsily) fighting each other, Sister Finch was able to ignore the two wrestling and wholeheartedly examine Happy, who was lying unconscious in the hospital bed.

However, as time went on, even with Sister Hua's temper, she became somewhat unhappy, especially when Sherlock and Tony started talking more and more trash and their standards started to drop. Sister Hua finally snapped.

"You two need to keep quiet in the ward, unless you both want to end up lying here too!"

When Sister Hua said those words, she was incredibly gentle, even with a hint of manipulative charm. But in the second half, her Yamato Nadeshiko aura instantly transformed into that of a madwoman. Her murderous intent, like a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, instantly reminded Sherlock and Tony, who were wrestling together, of the days they had been trained by Sister Hua.

The two of them became incredibly obedient in an instant, almost imperceptibly. They knelt together facing the wall, no longer fighting, and even their breathing slowed down unconsciously, for fear of being spotted by Sister Hua.

Little Chili was dumbfounded by what she saw.

No, is this right? What on earth happened to make Tony so obedient? God help it, even Tony, that bastard, isn't always this well-behaved in front of his mother! Not to mention that little rascal Sherlock.
