Chapter 68: Mutant Clan Appears! All The Sky Fires Were Chopped Off! (I)

---

Tonight's stupid thief is destined to be just an episode.

After Skyfiire directly interrupted the thief's spellcasting, it opened the doors on both sides simultaneously and then automatically drove to Lorien's side and stopped. Look how smart it is!

After the two got into the car, Lorien hit the accelerator, and the Ferrari drove towards the seaside market.

"Lorien, that stupid thief is so funny! He was knocked away by a car door by Skyfire just halfway through his words!" Wanda was still laughing, remembering what happened just now. She turned on her phone and sent the video to Natasha.

Lorien drove the car and reported a set of data to Wanda. "Wanda, you need to know, the United States owns 5% of the world's prisons and has 25% of the world's criminals. In other words, this is not only a city of capital but also a city of crime. So even in New York, Gwen's tutoring is still very strict, and there is even a curfew."

After Lorien explained this, Wanda said she had learned a lot and gained a new impression of the United States. If she had to describe it in one word, Lorien would give: Chaos has order. It's that weird.

But at that moment, Wanda suddenly reacted and looked at Lorien. "Lorien, how did you know there was a curfew at Gwen's house? Have you met her parents?"

Lorien:...

Women are creatures who can be sensitive to these inexplicable details. Lorien sighed and could only reply, "Gwen's curfew came up soon after you left the ferris wheel last time. I hurried her home and met her father. But in the end, there wasn't much time."

"Huh? Wanda?" Almost immediately, Wanda felt a little embarrassed. Right. After beating the Lizardman that day, she was the one who dragged Lorien away first and then went back to find Gwen after playing for a while. This caused Gwen to be late going home. So, it was all Wanda's fault!

After Wanda realized this, she knew she had shot herself in the foot. "I..."

Wanda tried to come up with a reason, but this one was really hard to edit. Wanda thought for a long time but couldn't find a suitable explanation. Lorien just smiled and said nothing. He was waiting for what Wanda would say. He wanted to see her squirm.

At this moment, Lorien's Ferrari had already driven to the beachside neighborhood. If they went further in, there would be a traffic jam. So Lorien planned to stop outside. Whether Wanda answered or not was just for fun.

But at that moment, "Wow~~~!" A sound of water stirring up waves came from a distance! "Boom~~~!" Immediately afterwards, the water hit the ground, followed by the sound of heavy objects stepping on the ground. "Ahhh~~~!" "Monsters! There are monsters!" "Run, there are monsters!"

Then came the shouts of many people fleeing.

Lorien:?

Hearing the word "monster," Lorien was stunned for a moment. He thought of various Marvel creatures. Doesn't anyone seem to be named after a monster? Isn't that a title from Pacific Rim and Ultraman? How did it come to Marvel?

And Wanda, who had just gotten out of the car, was also taken aback. "Another crisis?"

This sentence made Lorien laugh. "Yes." Lorien looked at Wanda. "Why do we encounter crises every time we go out? Tell me, Wanda, did you arrange these crises?"

Lorien said this in a joking tone, and anyone who heard it knew it was a joke. So Wanda rolled her eyes and raised her little fist. "Go over and have a look. Don't frame me here; I'll deal with you when we get back."

"Let's go." Lorien nodded, then patted the Ferrari and said, "Wait until the street is empty and drive up slowly."

After Skyfire heard this, it flashed its headlights twice to indicate it understood. Then Lorien took Wanda to the seaside market. The crowd inside was running out, causing severe congestion with the risk of trampling. Lorien and Wanda couldn't even squeeze in!

Seeing this, Lorien said to Wanda, "Use your Twelve Talismans in actual combat, and let the two of us float on the roof of the building."

Wanda realized she still had the equipment. She thought, "Rooster spell," then took Lorien's hand. The two of them floated together and flew to a nearby roof.

"It's Scarlet Witch!" "Scarlet Witch is here!" "Come on, she can protect us!"

Originally, Wanda was not so conspicuous at night, but flying was different! Normal people don't fly, so Wanda was recognized as soon as she flew!

This caused the crowd to become even more crowded, with some stopping their flight to squeeze under the roof where the two of them were.

Lorien was speechless for a while but also sighed. It's not their fault. Anyone encountering such an incident would want to run to a place they felt was safe, and Scarlet Witch's popularity was very high. It's normal for them to come here.

But this was still a problem. So, looking at Wanda, he reached out to signal the crowd and said, "Come on, a new challenge. Use your magic to carve out a single evacuation passage. The road should be wide enough for seven people to run together. Now use your magic to create seven isolated solo escape routes."

Wanda nodded. She flew above the crowd, stopped, and performed her unique gesture with both hands. Scarlet magical energy appeared, and Wanda used it to press down on the ground. Immediately, six barriers were erected on the street, dividing it into seven single lanes.

Lorien also flew over and looked at the crowd. "If you want to live, run straight to the end, and you'll be safe." After saying this, he turned and patted Wanda on the shoulder, "Let's go."

Wanda nodded, put her hands down, and followed Lorien. The energy of the barriers was enough to last for half an hour, ample time for the group to evacuate. Without the division, such a wide road might only allow four people to walk together due to pushing and shoving. Wanda's action had almost doubled the efficiency!

As the crowd watched Scarlet Witch and the man leave, some ran towards the end while others yelled, "No! Scarlet Witch! My Goddess!" "Move! Run!" "I don't want to die!"

Listening to the chaotic sounds of the crowd behind them, Wanda shook her head. The gap between ordinary people was huge. Those who could stay calm in such times were exceptional.

Next, Lorien and Wanda flew towards the place where the monster appeared. "Bang! Bang! Boom!"

Upon reaching the center of the incident, Lorien and Wanda saw a four-footed wolf-shaped monster about four meters high and six meters long!
