Chapter 45: Revealed
From the moment Shiraishi Hang's travel plan landed, it inevitably slid into an abyss.
Well, actually, that's what he wanted.
A trip without a romantic encounter feels like something is missing.
Whenever he tried to wade out of the abyss, the towering Himalayas stood in his way.
"Is this the honey trap? It's so scary, maybe you could have more."
After finally climbing out of the mountains, Baishi Airport stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, admiring the scenery outside.
In fact, there is nothing to see except that part of Central Park.
However, as a place he had visited in his previous life as Spider-Man in the game, he still had some feelings for it.
"Honey, what are you looking at?"
Jennifer asked softly as she hugged him from behind.
"Just saw my good neighbor from New York."
"Haha, Spider-Man can't save New York."
Shiraishi Hang was angry. He would not allow anyone to speak ill of Spider-Man in front of him!
So after a struggle, Jennifer admitted her ignorance and persuaded Shiraishi Hang to calm down with her own words.
Naturally, it's another day of procrastination.
"This is the legendary Hell's Kitchen. The situation is much better now because housing prices have risen, and the cost of living has also risen. Many locals can't afford it and have moved away. But don't wander around at night. They don't choose the day to rob."
Following Jennifer, his dedicated 24-hour tour guide, Shiraishi Hang's understanding of New York has shifted from the level of movies, TV shows and games to the real level.
"You're really not going home?"
"Ha, my family is a rubbish, with an alcoholic dad, a good mom, a drug-addicted brother, and robberies every day in the community. If I continue to stay there, my life will be ruined. I'm already 18 years old and don't need a guardian. I was able to become an exchange student because of my own efforts. Don't even think about abandoning me now."
Jennifer talked about her family background and everyone shook their heads when they heard it. Her biggest wish was to get out of this quagmire, which was why she got together with Shiraishi Ko so quickly.
Realistic, but not offensive.
"Tour guide Jennifer, can you take me to St. John's Cathedral?"
"Ahem, OK, dear traveler, please follow me."
St. John's Cathedral did not seem as magnificent as St. Patrick's Cathedral to Shiraishi Hang, but it had a stronger cultural and historical atmosphere, although he did not know which church actually had a longer history.
Jennifer didn't know much about it, so she had to check her phone, look at the signs, and then explain it to Shiraishi Hang.
Walk all the way to the small garden next to it, and in the center stands a tall statue.
"This is the Peace Fountain, but it looks like it hasn't been turned on for a long time. The statue on it is the scene of the archangel Michael defeating Satan."
Listening to Jennifer's explanation and staring at the angel statue in front of him, Bai Shihang's originally vague plan in his mind gradually took shape.
After leaving the church, we went to the famous South Bronx and Harlem, where we saw some black guys who were actively committing crimes to help the police lose weight, as well as some black guys who were squatting on the street as if they were choosing who to attack.
We really need superheroes here.
Maybe a dozen would be enough.
Spider-Man, who can't kill people, probably has no future.
Tell a joke, why not describe the heavy rain by writing about rain. Answer: Spiderman and Batman are beating up a criminal.
Stop fighting! You can't kill anyone like this!
After a day of shopping, Shiraishi Hang finally accompanied the diligent Jennifer to the mall, had dinner, and bought her some clothes and cosmetics.
Finally, back to the Carlton Hotel.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Bai Shihang secretly came to Central Park.
The park was not peaceful at this time either, with homeless people and gang members scattered around.
He casually captured two gang members and parasitized them, then manipulated one of them to come to the statue of Michael in the garden of St. John's Cathedral. After observing Michael's movements and shape, his body gradually changed, and soon, he became exactly like the statue.
Then he broke the connection between the statues and put them into the void. Bai Shihang's parasitic body stood on it like a substitute, and there was not a trace of disharmony at all.
This is also because he has been using his alienation ability a lot recently and seems to have become very proficient in it. Originally, this ability was mainly used for transformation, but he managed to use it in many different ways.
Then came another parasite, whose appearance changed into that of a fake one, and suddenly appeared on Liberty Island. Looking up at the towering statue of the goddess, the fake one revealed his signature weird smile.
He seemed to draw something on the ground around the museum where the statue of the goddess stood. After a while, in the night, the faker left Liberty Island quietly.
The next day, the sun rose as usual, and for many people, it was another day full of hope.
However, people who went to the island to see the statue today found that the ground seemed to be painted with some strange patterns.
"Whose performance art is this again!"
"It's hard to draw such a large pattern overnight."
"Maybe it's a promotion for some event, let's wait and see."
On Liberty Island, passengers pointed at the patterns on the ground. Some paid attention, while others did not. Only the relevant staff frowned and turned to check the surveillance to see which bastard had come to make trouble last night.
On the other side of Liberty Island, southwest of Manhattan, the faker floated in the air, looking at the statue from afar.
His subconscious mind told him from the first moment he saw the statue that the demonic declaration against the Statue of Liberty would definitely come true. This world beacon called the Statue of Liberty, as a symbol, has won countless admirations, but at the same time, it has also accumulated countless hatreds.
Years of continuous foreign wars have made every bullet fired by the soldiers accumulate malice towards the goddess.
Once the announcement is made, this will definitely be the most powerful demon that Bai Shihang has ever faced, and he won't even have much chance of defeating this demon in a single fight.
However, he didn't need to be the last one to take responsibility. If he couldn't win, he could just run away! Bai Shihang didn't believe that he couldn't win even if he used a nuclear bomb to clean up the place.
And, most importantly, he did not feel threatened by anything "unconfrontable".
In other words, the process may be a little tortuous, but this demon will ultimately be no match for humans, nor will it pose a threat to his life.
".It seems that the transformation of such a huge demon will take a long time. So, I hereby declare - Statue of Liberty, your body is called a goddess, but in fact it is a demon. The torch you hold high is burning the blood of millions of families. The chains you break are the moral constraints you have abandoned. I pronounce this judgment with the evil thoughts of billions of sentient beings."
"——Devil, show yourself!"
The announcement is complete.
There was no backlash, and no movement. Apart from the fact that a certain amount of strength was drained from the body out of thin air, nothing seemed to have happened.
But Bai Shihang could feel that an ominous aura was gathering, and a familiar devilish smell was emerging.
In New York, the originally clear sky seemed a little darker for some reason.
