Ling Yi absorbed the Life Essence Qi very quickly, but the entire process of Changes in his body lasted for more than eight hours.
When Ling Yi fully regained consciousness, it was already noon the next day.
Is this evolution?
Ling Yi suddenly clenched his right fist, and with a muffled thud, he actually crushed the air.
With a single movement, he was already a kilometer away. A second after Ling Yi reappeared, a series of booming sounds appeared behind him, a sonic boom caused by the extremely high speed that cut through the air.
This power is Tilling from what it was before.
Natasha looked at the "nothingshop" in front of her.
I find this name utterly baffling. A tiny shop with absolutely nothing in it? What kind of shop has that name?
She knows Chinese, but she can't say she's Proficiency; she's completely clueless about idioms and such.
Chinese idioms are a nightmare for all foreigners learning Chinese.
" Shop of Serendipity?" Natasha memorized these words and planned to go back and study their meaning carefully.
Pushing open the shop door, the first thing you see is rows of empty shelves.
As expected, it was just a notching; there was nothing there.
In the direction of the counter, a handsome young man was engrossed in playing a mobile game with the music blasting loudly.
"Are you the owner of this shop?" Natasha asked.
"Hmm!" Ling Yi made a sound through his nose, still engrossed in the game.
"What does the shop sell? Why is there nothing here?" Natasha asked again.
Does opening a shop necessarily mean selling things? Besides, it's just that we don't have any things to sell right now.
Ling Yi put down his phone and looked up at the Marvel horn in front of him, a horn that was both strange and familiar.
When Ling Yi saw the numbers above Natasha's head, he was somewhat alarmed.
The Good and Evil Value reached -1982, and the Evil Value even reached over 3100.
This means that this female superhero in the Marvel Universe, this female agent who came out of the Red Room, has killed more than 3,000 people since birth.
This is seriously outrageous! No wonder she's called Black Widow, she's really deadly.
Natasha clearly noticed the unusual look in Ling Yi's eyes.
Does he know himself?
"What shop doesn't sell things?" Natasha continued to probe, sticking to her job.
"Who knows? Maybe it's omnipotence, maybe it's Eternity life, or maybe it's freedom?" Ling Yi laughed.
"These can be considered goods? This reminds me of many stories about demons!"
Ling Yi shrugged; this way of speaking, reminiscent of dialogue from a movie, made him feel a little awkward.
"You see, I have nothing in my shop."
That means they're asking, "What are you doing here? You need a reason, right? Here's an excuse, ma'am!"
"I'm looking for a job, I wonder if you need any employees?"
"An employee? That makes sense. As a boss, you should hire an employee."
Ling Yi stroked his chin, speaking thoughtfully.
"If you're interested, you can give it a try."
Can you provide food and lodging?
Are we still going to stay here?
Hmm, it seems like we're short of a cook, a cleaner, a salesperson, or a secretary? This woman is perfect for the job.
"There are empty rooms upstairs, and the kitchen is on the second floor. Make whatever you want to eat, and make one for me too."
"The room isn't locked. You'll have to get a lock made yourself after you choose your room. As for the salary, how much do you think is appropriate?"
"Ten thousand dollars a month?" Natasha asked.
"Okay, you were the one who asked for this salary. If you want a raise in the future, you'll have to come up with a better reason."
Natasha nodded. "So, boss, what should I do now?"
Do you know how to play video games?
Around 10 p. m., Daredevil Matt Murdock and Punisher Frank walked into the store at the same time.
Both of them were taken aback when they saw Natasha playing games with Ling Yi.
They all knew Natasha, and had even interacted with her a few times. They also knew about S.H.I.E.L.D.., and had collaborated with S.H.I.E.L.D. on several occasions.
Nick had invited them to join him on several occasions, but they both declined.
Natasha was also surprised to see the two of them.
"You..." Natasha was very surprised.
"We're not dead, now we work for the boss," Frank said with a shrug.
"Boss, she is..." Frank was about to reveal Natasha's identity immediately.
"She's an employee here now. You all go do what you're supposed to do," Ling Yi said, waving his hand.
"Yes, Warden."
Without the slightest hesitation, the two turned and left.
As prison guards, Capture prisoners is their job. There are no good people in Hell's Kitchen, and they'll be busy for a while.
"I should go to work too."
Ling Yi Ling Yi his phone onto the sofa, stood up, and his clothes began to change like flowing water, transforming in the blink of an eye into a black hooded trench coat that completely enveloped him.
"This is..." Natasha was utterly shocked; the Changes before her eyes were so dazzling that they were completely beyond her comprehension.
"This is Nano Bionic Suit. If you behave well, I can give you one."
Ling Yi spoke, he walked towards the door.
"I took it seriously!"
"Watch your step and take good care of the house. If you get sleepy, lock the door and go to sleep."
Before Ling Yi's voice had even finished, he had already vanished.
Natasha stared at the empty doorway and murmured, "You should have known who I was all along!"
Tonight is destined to be a night of terror for the slackers of Hell's Kitchen.
Ling Yi, Mark, Frank, without any restraint, Wuji arrested people in Hell's Kitchen, causing quite a commotion.
Now, with the aid of equipment, especially the Paralysis Sonar Gloves, Mark and Frank are incredibly effective.
Anyone who opens their palm and releases a paralyzing sonar will be instantly knocked down.
Afterwards, the person was sent directly to M0 Prison; the whole process was carried out smoothly.
Because of their status as prison guards, they, like Ling Yi, can also see the Good and Evil Value above other people's heads.
Compared to Ling Yi, these two were more direct. They didn't care about age, gender, Clone status; as long as someone's Good and Evil Value was negative, they would just use a paralyzing sonar.
Overnight, a large area of Hell's Kitchen was emptied.
Meanwhile, 671 more prisoners joined the M0 Prison overnight.
This efficiency even made Ling Yi's scalp tingle!
As for whether doing so would cause any panic, Mark didn't care, nor did Frank; they already deeply resented these people.
On the contrary, Ling Yi was far less efficient, capturing fewer than twenty people in total.
Later, he simply returned to his own small shop and became a hands-off manager. With two such capable subordinates, why would he need to do everything himself?
Indeed, this is the correct way for a time traveler to be a time traveler.
Ling Yi was very satisfied with the performance of the two prison guards.
Around midnight, Mark and his companion, travel-worn and exhausted, returned to the small shop.
"Not bad." Ling Yi said without looking up as he ate the noodles Natasha had cooked.
"Warden, Kingpin will go crazy," Mark laughed.
Kingpin over 100,000 Xiao Di under his command, if Kingpin were to go berserk, it would mean that the two of them might face endless pursuit.
But the two were not afraid at all; on the contrary, they were quite excited.
"Your strength is still a bit lacking."
Ling Yi reached out and grabbed a ball of extremely dense Life Essence Qi, which then split in two and entered the bodies of the two people.
This is the Life Essence Qi for 100 people, with each of the two receiving 50 portions.
Based on his absorption of Life Essence Qi last night, Ling Yi has basically confirmed that the Life Essence Qi of 50 people is enough for one person to unlock the first layer of the Gene Lock and awaken their abilities.
As for what abilities they can awaken, that depends on the strength of their individual genes.
Natasha stared curiously at the two motionless figures, their bodies radiating a rich green glow.
However, she knew she shouldn't ask. Through their brief contact, Natasha had a general understanding of Ling Yi's personality.
I act as I please, but I have my bottom line.
Follow your heart and abhor passivity.
Ling Yi will tell her what he can tell her, but he won't tell her what he can't tell her, even if Ling Yi asks.
Ling Yi didn't explain, and went back upstairs after finishing his meal.
Natasha thought for a moment, then went back upstairs to her room.
She didn't report to Nick Fury because the information she had wasn't complete, and Ling Yi's mysterious and unpredictable nature made her hesitant to contact Nick.
Let's talk about it another time. What she needs to do now is observe quietly!
Hmm... It seems Ling Yi doesn't seem to care about her at all when he's doing things.
I don't know if Ling Yi is overconfident or just believes in himself.
It should be confidence, but believing in oneself is simply impossible.
Over the next few days, Hell's Kitchen became quite lively.
Gunfire was constant every day, often lasting until almost midnight before gradually subsiding.
Meanwhile, the number of prisoners in M0 Prison has reached more than 3,000 and is increasing rapidly every day.
Kingpin went mad because that guy Frank had his son imprisoned.
Kingpin's wife Vanessa had a positive Good and Evil Value, so Frank spared her, but Kingpin's son had a negative Good and Evil Value.
It's Taunt that Vanessa might be the only one in Hell's Kitchen with Good and Evil Value.
Kingpin, driven to utter desperation by the "death" of his son Richard, mobilized all available resources, vowing to tear Frank and Daredevil to pieces.
New York City, on the top floor of the Triskelion, in Nick's office.
Nick, Barton, Coulson, and Black Widow, who had just returned, were watching a video projected onto the wall.
"From my observations these past few days, the Punisher's new ability is Telekinesis, an incredibly powerful force that can easily move objects weighing tons," Barton said with a hint of envy.
"And Daredevil's new ability still seems to be related to sound; he can release low-frequency Soundwave from any location to paralyze people," Barton continued.
"It's been half a month. Kingpin's men have been almost completely wiped out. Kingpin's madness has aroused extreme dissatisfaction among some people. He has been assassinated multiple times. Most recently, Kingpin's wife Vanessa was mistakenly killed by a gunman. Kingpin has completely lost control."
" Hell's Kitchen is almost empty; now almost no one dares to go there. The Punisher's strength has exceeded all expectations. However, I've heard that General Ross seems quite interested in them."
Nick tapped the table and looked at Natasha.
"Those who disappeared didn't die; they were simply imprisoned by Ling Yi in a special world called M0 Prison."
" M0 Prison? A private prison? A private prison holding tens of thousands of people? That's outrageous." Barton was incredulous.
"Do you know where it is?" Nick asked.
"It's not some place you think it is; it's a special world that belongs only to Ling Yi, in another dimension."
Natasha carefully chose her words.
" M0 Prison is enormous; Ling Yi told me it's roughly the size of Earth. Those 20,000 people are imprisoned there."
Nick, Barton, Coulson all looked at Natasha, as if to say, "Is your information reliable?"
