24 The Light of Salvation

The azure night sky gradually faded, returning to its original color.

  The Air Force looked down at the "Lightman" on the ground in surprise. The blue aura floating around him had disappeared, leaving only the Lightman himself.

  The dazzling blue light makes it impossible to see what he looks like for the soldiers…

  Maybe it was a god of war composed of light that the soldiers were seeing?

  Otherwise, why did the sky change color because of his appearance?

  They didn't know, they only knew that this light man had appeared, and the monster that was once invincible was now plunged into the ground. Leaving only one head still above the ground breathing.

  "You are, abomination..."

  Lightman... No, Ivan said the name of the monster. He knew that the monster was called Abomination. In the original Marvel movie, it destroyed some of the city and the streets.

  Abomination did not speak.

  It was thinking… doubting.

  It thought it was invincible just a moment ago, so why is it sinking into the ground at this moment, unable to extricate itself?

  What kind of existence is the person enveloped by this light?

  "Jessica, you go back first." Ivan said softly.

  "Ok."

  Only Jessica knew that the so-called blue Lightman was Ivan.

  She stood up, except the fact that her legs and feet were still a little weak, her body was not hurt.

  This battle made her understand the joy of being a hero, but it also made her understand the danger and difficulty of being a hero.

  Especially when facing an unimaginable monster. Onlookers can't appreciate how the hero's heart beats uncontrollably when facing danger.

  She ran, and at this moment, she finally understood why Ivan always said to get her a shield. As a hero, holding something in her hand is indeed better than going empty-handed.

  Ivan squatted beside the head and asked faintly.

  "I have never understood, what is the purpose of you rampaging in the street?"

  Abomination looked at the man squatting in front of him, and it answered slowly and coarsely.

  "There is no why, destroy... everything."

  "You are not stupid; how can you live without the earth."

  The shoulder of abomination was shattered, and even if Ivan did not press it now, it could no longer raise its arms.

  But it was angry, not reconciled by the end of everything.

  "EVERYTHING!" Abomination roared suddenly!

  With the roar, the gamma gene roared in his body!

  The rubble was in chaos! The ground was shaken up!

  It exhausted all its strength and burst out of the ground! No one can restrain it!

  But in the next second it shattered into thousands of pieces of flesh and blood.

  The meat squirmed on the ground for a few seconds, and then there was no movement at all.

  Ivan, who was wrapped in light, slowly lowered his right hand. It was only...

  The power of one thought.

  "It's time to go back."

  With a loud bang, the Lightman erupted in place like a meteor, soaring into the sky! Once again, a hot crater was left on the ground.

  The blue light was fleeting, and everything was calm once more.

  The only thing left is a faint blue arc of the sky, like a trail of light.

  ...

  All this dazzled all those who witnessed it.

  What's more, they called it the light of salvation.

  ...

  ~In the morning~

  Ivan and Jessica made an appointment to go shopping together.

  Jessica had told Ivan about yesterday.

  When she said that the phone was broken, she smiled embarrassedly... She also felt stupid.

  It is also the first time that she knows that being strong is not always a good thing, and it may be pitiful being strong.

  If it wasn't for the fact that she had already dialed Ivan...

  If she smashed the phone two seconds earlier, then Ivan would not have know that she was in danger.

  Ivan remembered that he was wearing slippers and chatting with Angel in the orchard last night. Suddenly, Jessica called from his mobile phone. He was about to answer the phone but the call stopped and he could not answer.

  He could not relax, and he immediately began to worry.

  With his thoughts soaring, he saw the chaos of Fifth Avenue in New York from a bird's eye view.

  At the moment, he ran into it like a meteor without hesitation, and suppressed the source of the chaos as he approached.

  "Well, is there is popcorn over there?"

  "Nope, let's go buy it."

  There are a lot of nice and delicious foods in the mall, but the main purpose of this visit is to buy a phone for Jessica.

  Jessica claimed that she had money, and Ivan doesn't need to help her out.

  But Ivan knew that Jessica did have the money to buy a mobile phone... but after buying it, she will most likely be broke.

  She only worked for the moving company for two weeks and didn't make much money.

  Ivan has made a net income of 180,000+ USD in the past two years.

  The profit from selling paintings is not big, and only made 7,000+.

  In fact, this is because he did not regard painting as his main business, but only as a hobby. He painted every piece of work with his heart, and after he finished painting, he sold it for a small amount of money.

  He can paint whatever he wants, do whatever he wants, and doesn't accept other people's special customization. Because of this, he can't make much money.

  After all, the things he draws as he pleases may not be liked by anyone, but because of his excellent painting skills, many people find him to customize.

  Now his personal assets are 215,000+ USD.

  Although he is not rich, compared to Jessica...

  He's fairly rich.

  So Ivan made it clear to Jessica, "I WILL buy you the phone!"

  But Jessica felt that if Ivan spent money on her like this, she would lose her will to make money! This caused a small argument

  So Ivan said,

  "I don't want you to think, I want you to listen!"

  After Ivan said that, he laughed, and him laughing also made Jessica laugh, although she didn't know what Ivan was laughing at.

  But she was infected by Ivan's laughter and felt very happy unconsciously.

  After buying the phone, Ivan installed a map location software on her phone so that she could send the location to Ivan at any time in the future.

  It was noon when they walked out of the mall.

  "Ivan, I took time off today, where should we go to play?"

  Jessica knows that Ivan is idle, like a big boss, while angel and Karen are the busy ones.

  She always felt that those two people were like Ivan's employees, busy with fruit wholesale, contacting buyers and so on.

  In fact, Ivan once mentioned that Jessica could be a fruit farmer with him to make a profit.

  But Jessica is not stupid. With Ivan's current orchard area, he has enough manpower.

  She knew that by being adding in, she would only be taking a share of Ivan's money.

  Jessica wants to make money, but instead of making money from Ivan, she also has a strong side.

  "Um... By the way, Jessica, I mentioned before that I will get you a shield."

  "Huh... didn't you say a umbrella?"

  "Oh yes... it's an umbrella."

  "Haha." Jessica smiled, "How much do you want me to have a shield... hehe."

  "Originally, I thought I should not be so anxious, and I didn't need to be in a rush. But what happened yesterday made me feel that I must give you a self-defense weapon as soon as possible."

  "I don't always encounter a monster..."

  Jessica remembered the look the monster stared at her with yesterday, and her heart began to accelerate again.

  "It's 2008 now, and it's different from two years ago," Ivan said.

  "What happened in 2006?"

  "You haven't seen Mr. Stark claiming to be Iron Man... the birth of a hero often means that people need it."

  Ivan said so.

  "Mr. Stark... is a very powerful man." Jessica said. "The combat armor he made for itself is very handsome. No one else can do it, right?"
