Chapter 292 The Connection between the Octopus Monster and the Multiverse

Half a year passed in peace and prosperity.

Mid-January 2024.

In the past six months, Wanda has used sleep walking to connect to some strange isomorphs.

There are ordinary people getting married and having children, there are evil Scarlet Witches, and there are even babies.

But there wasn’t the Wanda that Carl wanted.

This situation once made him wonder if he had chosen the wrong method.

Using sleep walking to find Wanda is probably harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

Recently, Carl has been thinking that since it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack, he might as well continue traveling through parallel universes.

But traveling through parallel universes does involve certain risks.

What if you travel to the comic universe, the superheroes there have exaggerated combat powers, and the villains can destroy the universe at any time.

With Carl’s current strength, he may not be able to hold on.

Therefore, he has to carefully consider the decision to continue traveling through parallel universes.

In fact, Carl only needs to wait a few decades to fully master the power of the Phoenix and increase his strength to the multiverse level.

At that time, he will be able to observe the timeline of the multiverse and naturally find Wanda.

But this robust approach is too slow.

“If we want to find Wanda as soon as possible, it looks like we have to take some risks.”

Now that he had made the decision, Carl quickly walked out of the bedroom and prepared to look for Qin and Daisy.

But in the secondary bedroom of the suite, he only saw Qin lying on the bed watching TV series on a tablet.

“Are you so bored that you’re watching soap operas?”

Qin stared at the tablet screen and said without turning her head, “What else? I’m not cut out to be a superhero. If I don’t find some entertainment every day, I’ll be bored to death.”

If a person is idle for too long, something bad will happen to him.

Carl wanted to find a meaningful job for the other party, but he thought about it.

He really couldn’t imagine what a woman with the power to explode a star could do.

The main reason is that Qin’s personality is content with the status quo.

After having her fill of being a superhero, she got tired and bored and didn’t want to be one anymore.

And there is no Voville School for Gifted Children in this world, otherwise she could be a teacher and teach those mutant children with super powers.

Therefore, when she is bored every day, Qin can only watch some melodramatic soap operas.

Karl couldn’t think of anything meaningful for her to do, so he was silent for a while, and said seriously:
“This parallel universe is too boring. It’s time for us to leave.”

“Qin, get ready. I plan to take you to another parallel universe tomorrow.”

Hearing this, Qin finally raised her head with interest and glanced at the bastard.

“Finally I can leave this boring world. Have you found the person you were looking for?”

She had also heard a little about Wanda.

“No.” Carl shook his head and said, “I wasted a year before I realized that using dream walking to find people in the multiverse is too unreliable.”

“So, I plan to continue traveling through the new universe, looking for people while I travel.”

Qin asked with a little excitement: “Are we leaving tomorrow? Morning or afternoon?”

Judging from her anxious look, it seems that she is fed up with the boring life in the past six months.

Karl spoke to comfort her: “Don’t worry, I haven’t decided on a specific time yet, but if nothing unexpected happens, we will leave tomorrow.”

“By the way, do you know where Daisy went?”

Qin asked curiously, “Are you planning to take her with you?”

Carl: “Yes, it makes no difference to me to take one more person through time and space, so I want to take her with me to leave this universe.”

Qin explained: “Sister Daisy is usually on missions now, but she occasionally slacks off at work in S.W.O.R.D.”

At this moment, the door of the secondary bedroom was pushed open with a bang.

Daisy came in in a hurry.

“Jane? Where are you? This is really troublesome. Something happened at Strange’s place. I need your help. Carl? Why are you here?”

Daisy’s face was full of surprise. Apart from the happy time at night, she rarely saw Carl during the day.

Today Daisy wore a tight vest with a long black windbreaker and a dark-colored high-necked base shirt underneath. This was the combat uniform she would wear whenever she went out on a field mission.

It highlights her heroic and majestic demeanor.

Karl looked at this Saniu twice and said calmly: “We will leave this parallel universe tomorrow. You should be prepared for a long journey.”

Daisy was full of questions, “Leaving? Why?”

“Why so many whys? Just decide for yourself whether you want to come with us.” Carl said impatiently.

Daisy’s face was hesitant. Although this world was disappointing, she still had a lot to be reluctant to leave S.W.O.R.D.

After all, she has been an agent for more than ten years, from S.H.I.E.L.D. to S.W.O.R.D., and she is already familiar with every tree and blade of grass in this world.

Now she is asked to leave the familiar place and go to a strange new universe with a man she is not familiar with.

She really couldn’t make a decision in a short period of time.

Seeing her conflicted look, Qin threw back the quilt and got out of bed.

“You don’t want to leave?”

Qin was only wearing a thin pair of big-eyed bunny pajamas, and the thunder on her chest was about to burst out.

But Qin ignored Carl’s increasingly heated gaze and pulled Daisy aside to ask, “Is there some bond you can’t let go of? Or is it because of something else?”

Daisy shook her head and murmured, “Neither. I’m just used to this familiar world and I’m afraid of the unfamiliar future.”

Seeing how literary this girl spoke, Karl directly helped her make a decision.

“Since you can’t decide, let me help you make the decision. Just follow us and leave tomorrow.”

Carl’s commanding tone made Daisy respond subconsciously, “Yes, Master!”

After reacting, Daisy remembered that she was not in bed now. Her pretty face flushed and she said regretfully:

“No, you have to give me a few days to think about it.”

“At the very least, you have to wait until I finish the task at hand. If I have to leave, I hope I can finish what I started.”

“I will bid farewell to my career as a spy by completing this last mission!”

Karl was speechless, “You dare to negotiate terms with me?” After a pause, he continued, “Actually, it’s not impossible to postpone it for a few days, but you have to be grateful.”

How could Daisy, who had been living together with Karl for more than half a year, not hear the obvious hints in this guy’s words?

She silently began to undress, but was stopped by Karl.

“Wait, don’t bother. Don’t you want to bid farewell to your career as an agent? Then start with this combat uniform!”

With a “swish” sound.

This combat uniform that had accompanied Daisy for many years was torn apart by some bastard.

Night falls. Daisy and Qin are having dinner in the private dining room of the suite.

After a day of hard work and gratitude, Daisy finally got permission to complete her mission and leave this world.

As a supporting role, Qin did not consume too much physical energy. After all, most of the bullets during the day were borne by her good sister.

She looked at Daisy wolfing down her food and advised her, “Eat slowly. Are you in a hurry to finish the task?”

Daisy explained incoherently while eating: “Of course, how can I feel at ease if I don’t investigate the origins of the octopus monster yesterday?”

“If that monster appears again, it will likely cause many innocent casualties.”

Qin was no longer surprised to hear the news that the octopus monster appeared on the streets of New York.

After all, all kinds of villains often appear in this world.

This kind of monster is obviously created by evil scientists doing illegal experiments, so it’s not surprising at all.

Qin Ye said bluntly, “This kind of thing, could it be another monster that escaped from a biological laboratory?”

Daisy shook her head and said, “I don’t think so. Most high-risk biological research laboratories are monitored by S.W.O.R.D.”

“And the octopus monster that suddenly appeared on the streets of downtown New York yesterday was probably not something that escaped from a laboratory.”

“Fortunately, Master Strange was nearby at the time. He took action in time to deal with the octopus monster and saved many innocent civilians.”

“But afterwards, he warned S.W.O.R.D. that the octopus monster was likely to have come from an unknown dimension or another universe.”

“What if the monster appears somewhere else next time? He may not be able to help in time.”

“So, Nick Fury sent the bureau’s top fighter, me, to investigate for more information about the octopus monster.”

Jean didn’t care at all about the octopus monster. She was more curious about the highest combat power that Daisy mentioned.

“You are just the top fighter? Is there anyone in the S.W.A.R.D. who is stronger than you?”

Daisy had been hanging out with Carl for half a year, and apart from being fed puffs frequently, it was not without rewards.

She would occasionally receive some advice from Karl, and her strength had improved rapidly in the past six months.

Her current strength is roughly between the sub-god level and the god level.

Therefore, Qin was curious about why Daisy was not the strongest fighter in S.W.O.R.D.

“Well wait until I finish eating, and then I’ll explain it to you.”

Daisy was so busy eating that she had no time to answer. Only when she was seven-tenths full did she put down her cutlery with satisfaction.

Scientific research shows that eating too much is not conducive to fighting.

The specific reason is that blood sugar rises after a meal. High blood sugar interferes with the normal metabolism and transmission of neurotransmitters, affecting the efficiency of nerve signal transmission between neurons.

This affects the speed at which the brain receives and processes information and issues commands.

To put it simply, if you eat too much, your reaction will slow down.

Of course, this is only part of the reason.

The more important reason is that Carl is here.

She didn’t want Karl to see her eating like a starving ghost.

This is basic respect for dining etiquette.

Maybe there are also some shy thoughts like not wanting to be seen in an ugly state by close people.

At this time, as Carl sat down and began to eat, Daisy slowly picked up the napkin, wiped her greasy red lips, and then explained to Qin.

“The strongest fighter in S.W.O.R.D. should be Carol Danvers, the terrifying woman who blew up Thanos’s spaceship with her fists during the battle against Thanos.”

“But Carol is keen on maintaining peace in the universe and generally does not stay on Earth.”

“So I will be the permanent top fighter in the entire Tianjian Bureau.”

Carl, who was eating next to them, didn’t care at all about the whispers between Daisy and Qin.

Just now Wanda successfully connected to an isotope again.

He is waiting for the follow-up results.

Although the chances were slim, he was still looking forward to whether Wanda would give him good news.

When Jean heard Carol’s name, she was confused and said, “I don’t know this Carol. Is it powerful to blow up a spaceship with one punch? I think I can do it, too.”

Qin’s puzzled expression and indifferent tone immediately hit Daisy.

“That’s right. For you, Sister Qin, it’s probably not that difficult to blow up a planet, let alone a spaceship.”

“You should know that ever since the Celestial God incident, the Bureau’s assessment of your strength is that you are unfathomable and suspected to have the ability to destroy a planet.”

“Compared to my sister, I am still too weak.”

Seeing Daisy’s expression of doubt about life, Qin realized that she had inadvertently hurt her sensitive heart.

She quickly spoke to comfort him: “It’s okay, sister Daisy, at most you can let Karl teach you a few more times, and your strength will improve soon.”

Hearing that he was suddenly mentioned, Karl said coldly: “I don’t have time to instruct you, so don’t bother me recently.”

Qin was embarrassed for a moment, but she quickly changed her mind and said, “Or you can practice with me when you have time. Actual combat can also improve your strength.”

At this point, she suddenly remembered something and added, “However, I am not free on the weekends. You know the specific reason. It’s time for fun.”

“Then I have to go for beauty treatments on Monday, so I won’t be available either.”

“Tuesday is Chanel’s regular day for new products every week, so I have to go shopping for clothes. By the way, let’s go shopping together this Tuesday.”

Without waiting for her good sister to answer, Qin counted on her fingers and continued:

“I have to work out on Wednesday to keep my sexy and slim body, so I don’t have much free time, but I can still squeeze out some time to spar with you.”

“How about we arrange a sparring session on Wednesday afternoon?”

“Because I’m not free on Thursday and Friday either, I have to go”

Daisy finally couldn’t help interrupting:
“Actually, I think my strength is sufficient for now, so there’s no need to trouble Sister Qin to squeeze out time to help me practice.”

Although Daisy’s tone was sincere, Qin could still hear the teasing in her good sister’s tone.

Qin looked embarrassed: “Well, okay, I admit that I was a bit busy, how about I accompany you to investigate the octopus monster?”

Daisy quickly shook her head. Although Qin was very strong, she suspected that she and Qin were not compatible.

“Forget it, sister. Last time you said you would help, but you ended up killing several Eternals and making the relationship so strained.”

“Originally, S.W.O.R.D. wanted to cooperate with the Eternals, but now we can’t even find anyone from the Eternals.”

“Uh, well.” Qin hesitated, thinking of how she almost messed up her sister’s mission.

“I was just angry at the time. You know what those idiots did. They suddenly betrayed me at the critical moment.”

Daisy said sincerely, “I know it’s not your fault, but I’d better investigate this octopus monster by myself.”

“If I get into trouble, I’ll come to you for help.”

The good sister was obviously afraid that she would make things worse. Qin wanted to say something but stopped herself. In the end, she could only sigh and lower her head to eat in silence.

Although he had been daydreaming, Carl’s attention was suddenly drawn when he heard the familiar word “octopus monster” while eating.

He couldn’t help but look up and ask, “What is the origin of this octopus monster? Is it related to the parallel universe?”
