Chapter Eighteen: Bai Luo's Resolve
For a long time, neither Bai Luo nor Logan spoke.
Logan was staring at Scott's lifeless body. At this moment, he had not yet joined Charles' school and did not know Scott, but he understood that Scott was a mutant.
Helicopters began to approach from the sky, first with meaningless shouts from a distance, then one was shot down mid-air by the Gunslinger Reincarnator with an RPG.
Bai Luo's eyes reflected the scene of the burning fireball falling from the sky.
These three seasoned individuals were undeniably arrogant.
According to the System's prompt regarding Bai Luo's arrival on the battlefield, they had created such a commotion in a remarkably short time since arriving in this world.
Their style of operation could only be described as reckless.
The entire city was thrown into panic; the appearance of these individuals made Kansas City truly unsettled tonight. The military's weakness, combined with the Reincarnators' strength, and the earlier words of that green-skinned Reincarnator declaring that "Sass City will be the beginning of the world's destruction," drove many to flee the city in desperation.
However, these Reincarnators indeed possessed audacious abilities. The werewolf had a recovery power comparable to Wolverine's, and his strength seemed even greater. The firearms expert among them was armed to the teeth, equipped with an Exoskeleton armor and carrying an array of weapons.
Although the green-skinned Reincarnator had entered a sort of stance mode, if a fight broke out, he needed to be dealt with immediately because it was clear to everyone that he posed the greatest and most formidable threat.
But the question remained... how would Bai Luo confront the Reincarnators?
How could he face such a group that might come from the same world as himself?
Bai Luo was in a peculiar state of contemplation.
He was thinking.
How should he handle the current situation?
The Reincarnator was almost within reach... at this moment, what should he do?
Just then, Logan slowly stood up beside Bai Luo and said, "Master, I'm planning to leave. I advise you to come with me; these people are no good. If you want to live a little longer, it's best to go with me."
Was Logan a good person?
Perhaps he was, but perhaps not.
Clearly, he did not intend to do anything at this moment.
But Bai Luo slowly shook his head and said, "I... don't plan to leave."
Logan was slightly taken aback. "What?"
Bai Luo began murmuring some words that Logan couldn't understand. His voice was soft, barely audible: "Reincarnators have their own missions when they arrive in a world or dimension. This group is specifically looking for the professor; their target is obviously him. If the professor dies, wouldn't that mean I've lost an important plot character...
"This group of Reincarnators has nothing to do with me. They've nearly destroyed this world and completed their missions before running off. But I'm not a Reincarnator; I'm here in this world, I...
"And also... right now Captain America is still sleeping like a beauty with his shield in the glacier, Tony Stark is probably still at the age of wetting the bed, Thor likely doesn't even know what Earth is, Star-Lord was just taken away yesterday, and Superman hasn't even experienced abandoning his father to save a dog...
"So if I right now... if I crush this bunch of foolish Reincarnators, then I...
"I would be the only one in this era, and the earliest..."
"Superhero."
In such an era, in a world like Marvel, what do the words "superhero" truly mean...
At this moment, Bai Luo turned his head to look at Logan, who wore a face of astonishment.
Wolverine noticed that the young man with an Eastern face had a certain intense light flickering in his eyes at that moment.
"Logan, have you ever seen a Talisman?"
"What... what?" Logan was puzzled as to why Bai Luo would suddenly bring this up. He furrowed his brow slightly, thinking that this child, known for his surprising remarks, had finally been scared out of his wits by the current scene. Just as he was about to offer some comforting words, he saw Bai Luo flip his hand and pull out a Yellow Paper Talisman.
What Bai Luo revealed was a second-tier Power Talisman. He looked at the object in his hand and took a slow breath, saying, "You see, this is a Talisman."
"This is a Talisman that can greatly enhance one's strength. You can think of it this way: when I use it, it's like giving myself an instant buff, allowing someone as small as me to possess unimaginable power." Bai Luo shook the second-tier Talisman in his hand and slapped it onto himself. It immediately transformed into sparkling light and merged into Bai Luo's skin. "See? It's that simple."
With that, Bai Luo took a step back.
Logan said, "Kid, you’re not going crazy from that bloody scene down there, are you?"
"No, no, no! I'm not crazy. Turn around; let me demonstrate—demonstrate the power of this Talisman."
The corner of Logan's mouth twitched. He said, "Forget it; we need to leave immediately..."
He couldn't finish his sentence because what he never expected was that Bai Luo actually kicked him off the platform!
Bai Luo's strength was astonishing, almost like that of a bull or an elephant. Coupled with the fact that Logan had never anticipated an attack from him, the shock was immense.
As Logan fell from the height, he was immediately spotted by a nearby Reincarnator. The werewolf let out a terrifying midnight howl and sprang toward him like a cannonball.
Bai Luo kicked him down and did not hesitate himself; he jumped off the edge of the platform.
He had indeed made a choice.
The choice that Bai Luo struggled with was actually quite simple. Although he was also a traveler, unlike the Reincarnators who were merely passersby, he would be the master of this world. From this perspective, if he wanted to live in a world filled with devastation and corpses, he could choose to ignore the Reincarnators or even collaborate with them. But if he did not want that, he had to step up and do something.
As a traveler, it was destined that he could not remain an outsider.
Therefore, not only did he have to reveal himself in front of these five Reincarnators, but he also had to eliminate them, thus becoming the first true superhero in this Marvel Comics world—a bizarre and terrifying madman attacking cities, amidst panic and despair… and ultimately a hero.
However, Bai Luo was not acting recklessly. The moment he jumped off the building, he shouted, "Uncle Logan, I need your help! Let's take down these people!"
Logan, stabilizing himself against the wall with his claws, heard Bai Luo's words as he was kicked off the building. His veins bulged as he roared from a distance, "You son of a bitch!"
