Chapitre 45: 44. San Francisco & Legion
We arrived at our next destination only in the evening. All along the way, I was lounging around and playing a game on my laptop.
By the way, I realized that I did not try to make a magical construct of a computer or telephone.
After realizing this, I tried to make a copy of my laptop. The shell of the computer turned out to be easy to make. But that's all.
His entire operating system and other internals of the computer did not work. I tried to make a phone as well, but again, the only thing that worked was its appearance.
For that, I'm still missing something. Having discarded this idea for the future, I continued to play.
By the time we arrived in San Francisco, I had completely finished the game. This game was from the 'Sumo Slammers' series.
Normal such a game, in principle, but does not go to any comparison with some games from my old world. For example, even the first Mass Effect is 10 times better than this game.
I can play it, just to kill time. I don't understand why Ashley is so crazy about this game? Nevermind.
Grandpa decided again that we needed to stay in a hotel, so we rented a large room and settled in.
When we finished packing, I decided to test my Mana knife. I took it out of my pocket and examined it.
It's been almost 14 hours since its inception. It faded a lot and began to lose its clarity. Also, it is no longer as hard as it was originally, but still, it can still be used.
I decided to leave it on the bedside table. Let's see what happens to him tomorrow morning.
Having completed all the affairs at the hotel, we went for a walk around the city.
I knew that in canon it was Kevin who caused the mess in this city. But since Kevin does not exist, but there is Ashley, now my girlfriend and she is with us, then everything should go without incident.
Unless, again, we will stumble upon some thieves, robbers or hijackers. But this is already in the order of things. We meet such 'villians' in every more or less large city.
But suddenly I didn't. We didn't encounter any robbers, we found the fire.
In an ordinary, nine-story building, a gas pipeline exploded, which started a fire.
When we approached the building, there were still no firemen, but there were already a bunch of onlookers in the area.
First of all, I used x-ray vision and checked the whole house. Still, it's a useful ability.
As always, when we were near, there were no casualties. On the seventh floor, by the side of the window, there was a man.
He had just broken the window and was preparing to jump off. But he still couldn't make up his mind.
The fire was already nearby, and almost 25 meters to fall down. The flame is certain death, and falling from such a height is possible death. So he couldn't make up his mind.
To help the poor man, I created a magical construct, in the form of a spiral slide, right next to the window where he was standing.
A man, seeing from nowhere a blue slide that appeared, was taken aback at first, and then looked at the fire and, spitting on everything, sat down on the slide and rolled down.
Below him was already waiting for a soft mattress from Mana, on which he landed successfully.
I'm not an idiot, leave everything as it is. From such a height and at such a speed, if there was not something soft on which he could land, then the poor man would have broken all his legs.
Standing on his feet, the man looked dumbfounded at how the slade that saved his life, dissipated.
And the fire that raged in the mission began to subside. This was done by Gwen with the power of the Charm of Pyrokinesis. In fact, putting out such a fire is a matter of five seconds for her.
Previously, she could not do this, because the man could suffer. And when I saved the man, Gwen could put out the flames.
And most importantly, no one even noticed that we did it. Having made sure that everything ended well, we continued our walk.
Before leaving, I heard some people say that a man was saved and the fire was put out by the Legion. I found this strange, so I decided to check it out later.
By this time, it was already dark and we were hungry. Finding a decent Chinese restaurant nearby, we went in and had a bite to eat.
After walking for another hour, we returned to the hotel. This time, I was able to persuade Grandpa to rent a cooler number. It was a three-room suite. One large living room and two bedrooms, each with two beds.
I wanted to pay for everything with my own money, but my old man was too stubborn and refused such an offer. But while he did not see, I asked Morgana to change the bank account and it turned out that I paid the money for the number. So, in my opinion, it's more honest, because it was I who wanted this number.
When we got back, we sat down in the common living room and started watching TV.
And at this time, on the news channel, they showed a report about one well-known, in this world, thief.
Shadow. A thief who steals art and treasures all over the world.
But he is not a simple robber who is greedy for profit. He can even be called a hero in some way, which restores justice.
Everything that he steals was once stolen from their historical homeland during all sorts of conquests.
For example, the paintings that the Nazis captured throughout Europe during the Second World War.
Or, the treasures of the Chinese Dynasty, which at one time were captured by the British Empire.
So, the Shadow is looking for such treasures in various museums, depositories or in the collections of wealthy collectors, and steals them, after which he returns them to his homeland.
The Shadow itself has been doing business for 25 years. And he was never caught. No one, until now, knows how he commits his robberies.
And most importantly, he does it under the noses of the police, the FBI and other similar organizations.
Shadow's signature style, reporting his next target a few days before the heist.
After another successful heist, Shadow always leaves a note with the location and time of his next 'performance' location.
It is clear that a bunch of police, special forces, and the FBI are always waiting for him. But he always leaves.
So, why am I saying this?
Now they said on TV that the next target is in San Francisco.
There is a certain Asian Art Museum in San Francisco. And there is one large diamond.
This diamond once belonged to a Maharaja. After his death, the diamond was kept in a temple, but the British took it away.
After that, he traveled the world until a few years ago, he settled in this museum.
This is the purpose of the Shadow. Tomorrow at 10:00 pm, he must steal this diamond.
I'm terribly interested in how the Shadow can get past all the security systems and never get caught.
So, I have something to do tomorrow night.
Continuing to watch TV, I remembered those conversations about a certain Legion. Taking out my laptop, I started looking for information.
Hmm. Not expected.
This Legion is me.
It seems that some craftsman was able to notice that some of the aliens that appeared in the cities and stopped the robbers and things like that are the same person.
I found one site full of photos of me as different aliens. Also, it is in my usual suit.
This person even realized that I can create magical constructs. Therefore, people thought that the Legion had saved that man. In general, it is.
I checked this whole site and I have to admit that this dude is great. He did a great job. There is even a video of me fighting Vilgax for the first time.
He even created a list of aliens that I can turn into. True, there are only 7 aliens, but obviously he will not stop there.
They even posted a video from today's fire. And the creator of the site, with the nickname 'Legion is the coolest of all', has already written that it was really 'Hero Legion'.
Like all the signs of my presence were there. And constructions, and fire suddenly disappeared.
He thought that the Legion used the Fireman, as he called the Heatblast, and put out the fire.
Also, there were praises about the fact that I never showed up, which means that the Legion is a real hero.
By the way, all of us are perfectly visible on the video. It's good that we were careful.
He already wrote that since the Legion is in the city, he should definitely try to catch the Shadow. And the admin will be there in person.
The wildest thing is that this fan of mine was able to trace our entire route. And he was not wrong. True, there were a couple of extra fires and robberies, to which I had nothing to do. He also follows us all over the country. He is already in the city.
This is what I don't need. That's why I wanted to not shine.
I don't need to be considered some sort of hero. God forbid, even understand who I am.
And that's not the biggest problem. The site, in addition to the list of aliens, describes all the abilities and weaknesses of my heroes.
And he understood them quite well. He was even able to understand that Diamondhead's weakness was a high frequency sound. This is a problem.
Therefore, I ordered Morgana to block the site and destroy the entire database of this fan, from which I might get in trouble.
After receiving a response from Morgana that everything was ready, I went to bed. I am in a very bad mood. There was nothing else I wanted to do today.
