Marvel With Zanpakutou

Chapter 490: Darkness Behind The Shadow

Space and time was an abstract concept.

Therefore, it could be roughly understood as a combination of time and space.

Therefore, the time and space freeze, in a literal sense, was to freeze the space and time of all things in a specific area, so that it would always be in a state of 'stopping.' Compared to the observation of things from the outside world, this time and space seemed to have been erased, resulting in a scene from the root that did not exist.

The power that the wristwatchgave to the law-enforcement officers was to remove the current flow of time and space.

Therefore, from the perspective of anything in this time and space, they could not find an existence that had been removed by. This was also the most important method for them to complete the task and wander around the edge of the line. In other words, it was [Space and Time Freeze]!

But here, it involved a paradox.

The current area of space and time that had been removed by, could it be removed by again?

The answer that reality told them was that they could not be removed by again.

In other words, the frozen time and space could not be frozen again.

Therefore, they lost the form of quantum ghost and could be observed by anyone from this moment on.

Since the function of time and space freeze was ineffective, Rick naturally thought of leaving.

When the law-enforcement officers encountered an inevitable great threat, they could use the last function of the Time and Space Watch to forcibly remove their existence from the current time and space and return to their original time and space.

However, something terrible happened. The function of the Time and space watch was also ineffective!

Logically speaking, even if they were in the time and space freeze, the function could not fail. However, the fact was that they had been slapped. The Time and space watch was affected by unknown reasons. The internal program was in a state of disorder, which was almost equivalent to a semi-paralyzed state.

Rick had discovered this, so she asked to immediately give up the mission and return.

Fortunately, they still had one last method, which was to extract the energy from the three Time and Space Watches in a hurry. They could temporarily create a miniature wormhole that was used to break away from the current time and space. The drawback was that the travel process was more dangerous. Once it was disturbed by the outside world, it was easy to fall into other unknown time and space.

Rick did not want to use this method unless it was absolutely necessary.

However, the uneasiness in her heart grew stronger, as if the low hum of a funeral bell made her have no choice but to take the risk.

Chris was affected by her emotions. He rubbed the corners of his clothes uneasily and glanced at the sky from time to time. He was afraid of being discovered by the monsters. He cursed, "Damn it. Didn't those people say that there would definitely be no problem with the Time and Space Watch?"

"Rookie, I'll give you a word. You must remember it." Rick pursed her lips, her eyes filled with ridicule. He said coldly, "Never believe in machinery and those people sitting in the office. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died."

Chris opened his mouth, as if he was frightened by this sentence. After a long time, he reacted and gritted his teeth, "F*ck, a bunch of bastards. When I go back this time, I will definitely stuff their heads into their farts!"

"If you are fine, then close that stinky mouth!"

Rick glared at him fiercely and threatened in a low voice, "If we are discovered by those monsters, we won't be able to leave!"

It was the second time Chris had participated in a mission. In Rick's eyes, he was a young rookie. Whenever he encountered something, he would always be in a panic. At most, he would make some ridiculous mistakes. This made her wonder how this guy had managed to sneak in and become a law-enforcement officer.

However, they had to be united at the moment, especially not to provoke the rookies. Thus, Rick only cursed a few times before turning around and ignoring him. He focused on adjusting the functions of the Time and Space watch, hoping to repair it.

Chris closed his mouth in grievance and silently helped to observe the situation.

Five minutes.

Ten minutes.

Fifteen minutes.

Rick was pacing around anxiously. Did she raise her hand to check the time and wait for the last person to arrive?

However, it was almost twenty minutes. Paul, who was supposed to come according to the agreement, still did not appear. Rick could not wait any longer. She tried the device again to call his companions, but the only reply he got was the sound of electricity.

Paul, lost contact!

This made Rick and Chris, who were already uneasy, once again have a layer of shadow in their hearts.

The law-enforcement officers would definitely not suddenly disappear, so the only possibility left was that Paul was likely to be in trouble.

No matter how stupid Chris was, he could see the situation clearly. He shouted in panic, "Damn it! D * mn it! That bastard Paul is definitely dead. Are we going to be trapped here?"

"Shut up!" Rick glared at him with bloodshot eyes. She roared hysterically, "Paul will be fine. He will definitely come back. If you dare to curse him again, I swear I will smash your head first!"

Chris immediately shut his mouth. It was only then that he remembered that someone in the bureau had said that Rick and Paul were in love.

This time, he had hit the muzzle. Rick did not tear him apart just now. He estimated that it was because everyone was still considered colleagues. If he dared to say another word, his head might not be intact.

At this moment, something strange happened!

An earth-shattering explosion shook the entire earth.

It was a nuclear bomb! A nuclear bomb had exploded!

This thought flashed through Rick and Chris' minds, but before they could react, they were sent flying by the shock wave of the nuclear bomb.

The air wave flowed down from the sky like a waterfall, sweeping through the ruins of the earth. The two people without the protection of the Time and Space Watch were instantly sent flying dozens of meters away by this huge impact, crashing into a wall.

This hit was not light, and the two of them felt like their internal organs were going to be displaced.

When they finally stood up and shook their buzzing heads and after the blurry vision in front of their eyes recovered, they saw a black shadow, looking at them with a smile that was not a smile.

Rick and Chris' pupils shrank to the size of needles.

An indescribable fear rushed into their minds. They felt as if their hearts had stopped beating for a few seconds, and cold sweat slid down their cheeks.

This man.

He was one of the terrifying monsters that caused the current space-time change.

Rick felt his heart go cold, and his spine trembled as if it had been trampled.

The ominous intuition came true. The group of monsters had actually discovered them, and it was this terrible opportunity!

"Welcome to my world."

Lod's eyes twinkled, and the corners of his lips held a kind smile. "I don't know how I should address you. Two friends from the Time Variance Authority (TVA)."
