Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger

Chapter 84: Dormammu Experience Package

All of them are offerings.

These are all experiences. With offerings of Dormammu's level, he must have gained a lot of experience.

These are the essence of life that nourishes his growth. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so eager to hunt down Kaecilius, that fool.

Isn't it all about showcasing his absolute talent, letting Dormammu know that someone like him exists?

Dormammu spent countless years trying to come to this world, with the Ancient One holding him off for thousands of years. Finally, when he was about to outlast her, this newcomer appeared. Naturally, he would want to find a way to get rid of him.

Dormammu is on the first level, while Bi Xiao is already on the tenth.

When the time comes, the more anxious Dormammu becomes, the stronger the people he sends to hunt him down will be. Bi Xiao will grow even faster. By the time the Ancient One retires, and Dormammu finally descends to Earth joyfully, he will be confronted by a far stronger version of himself. He'll be dumbfounded.

Bi Xiao felt very cheerful, whistling a happy tune while driving.

And truth be told, it was quite melodious. With his near-perfect body, absolute pitch, and vocal range, everything he whistled sounded good.

With a joyful and happy mood, he drove for an hour to Bear Mountain State Park, a famous tourist spot in New York, about 60 kilometers north of the city. The park features rolling mountains, dense forests, mirror-like lakes, and winding streams. In spring and summer, the peaks are lush; in autumn and winter, the clouds float serenely.

In late autumn, the continuous crimson and gold make it the most beautiful season of the year.

The park has Bear Mountain, which is covered with a variety of trees, including pines, cypresses, maples, rowans, walnuts, black cherries, oaks, and poplars.

The diversity of tree species brings different metabolic cycles.

In autumn, with the sudden chill, the leaves begin to change color.

The high winds on Bear Mountain cause the vegetation to wither, dyeing the mountain with varied colors, presenting Bi Xiao with a changing palette and a golden autumn landscape. The area has lakes and forests, with abundant negative ions in the air, allowing one to feel peaceful leaning against a tree.

At this time, Bear Mountain Park was already filled with many visitors, including many families enjoying the beautiful scenery.

Some even set up barbecue grills by the riverbank, starting their picnics.

Bi Xiao drove his muscular RV slowly to the riverbank. With its high clearance and large tires, it could handle any muddy road, allowing him to drive to the riverbank effortlessly, unlike the other visitors' sedans.

Besides his vehicle, there were some other SUVs parked there.

But among the SUVs, his muscular RV was a giant, attracting the eyes of many tourists.

“Wow, Dad, look at that cool car.”

“Wow, it's a beauty. I really want to touch the steering wheel. It's gorgeous.”

“What a handsome Asian guy.”

“I like him, Jenny. I think I found my future husband.”

“Don’t be like that, Ellie. Don’t compete with me. I think I suit him better.”

The men stared at the rugged RV with glowing eyes. In American culture, muscles are king, whether in people or cars.

The bigger it is, the more it hits their sweet spot.

Of course, this is true worldwide.

But the hot girls didn’t care much about that. Instead, they were more focused on Bi Xiao, who stepped out of the RV. Bi Xiao’s perfect appearance, with his exquisite features and skin tone, and his tall physique, even in a red leather jacket, allowed a glimpse of his firm chest and abs through the white T-shirt underneath.

Wearing jeans and white sneakers, with neat, dry black hair, he presented a clean, handsome appearance.

In the eyes of the hot girls, Bi Xiao was even more eye-catching than the RV. After all, it's not just men who have desires. Women can be even more fervent.

The muscular RV also showcased another aspect of Bi Xiao—his wealth.

Being able to drive such a vehicle in this era meant he was either rich or noble.

Handsome and wealthy, the ideal choice for girls.

So, as soon as he got out, several pretty girls with good figures approached, some in dresses and some in leather jackets and jeans.

“Hi, I’m Ellie.”

“I’m Mary.”

“I’m Jenny.”

The pretty white girls introduced themselves one after another. Bi Xiao did not coldly reject them; instead, he laughed heartily, “John Shaw, you can call me Shaw.”

“Shaw, are you Chinese?”

Jenny, with her slightly curly red hair, asked. She was an outgoing girl.

Bi Xiao was a bit surprised she recognized he was from China. For many Americans, their first guess for Asians would often be Japanese or Korean.

“Yes, I’m from China.”

“Wow, that’s a mysterious place. I remember there were many scenic places there.” Jenny responded, clearly trying hard to think of famous places or people from China.

Bi Xiao didn’t mind. He knew that the future of China would surpass many countries, second only to the United States.

Moreover, at this time, he cared even less.

“So, did you come here together?”

Bi Xiao changed the topic.

Ellie, brushing her blonde hair, said, “Yes, we came with two other friends, but our car broke down, and they went to fix it.”

She pointed to an old Ford Car in the distance with its hood up, where two young boys were fixing it.

“Okay, it seems your luck isn’t too good today.”

Bi Xiao chatted with the three girls for a while and soon became familiar with them. The girls had great personalities. Even without using his psychic powers and intuition, Bi Xiao, with his natural charm and expertise in language and psychology, could easily tell their thoughts and characters.

They were all eyeing his body.

Their youthful beauty, full of collagen, was indeed pleasing to the eye. Bi Xiao didn't rush into anything but enjoyed their company, the beautiful scenery, and their legs and chests.

(TL: there's something missing…)

Happily chatting and enjoying the scenery, Bi Xiao took out some juice, drinks, and beer from his fridge. The girls all chose beer, aiming to get drunk and create opportunities.

Bi Xiao pretended not to notice.

High-level hunters often disguise themselves as great prey.

Setting up chairs, a barbecue grill, and a small table, Bi Xiao provided many fresh, high-end ingredients. They barbequed, drank, and chatted together.

The two unlucky boys finally fixed their car and saw the girls sitting with an Asian guy, barbecuing, drinking, and chatting.

Except for Mary, who had a boyfriend, the other two girls were almost glued to the Asian guy's arms.

One of the young boys turned red with jealousy.

Seeing this, Mary's boyfriend shrugged indifferently, while the other boy huffed and walked over.

However, upon noticing Bi Xiao's attire, aura, and appearance, the two boys felt instantly inferior.

“Hey, Marcus, Paul, is the car fixed?”

Noticing her companions, Jenny's face was flushed with excitement.

“Yes, we just fixed it. Who is he?” asked Marcus, a brown-haired boy, with a bitter expression.

“He’s Shaw, John Shaw, from the mysterious Country China. He’s traveling alone across the country,” Jenny explained, introducing Marcus and Paul, all students from Pace University, classmates.

“Want a drink?” Bi Xiao stood up calmly, shaking hands with Marcus and Paul and handing them two cans of beer.

“Thanks.”

Bi Xiao's calm demeanor and inexplicable aura made Marcus and Paul feel a bit nervous. They awkwardly accepted the beer and sat on the empty chairs nearby.

After some drinks and conversation, they all got along well.

Even Paul, initially uncomfortable, warmed up to Bi Xiao after some chatting, as the difference in their levels was too great.

Bi Xiao wasn't just a master of relationships; he was a master of the way of nature.

After a round of socializing, the group of similarly aged boys and girls enjoyed the barbecue and beer together.

Some younger kids, attracted by the aroma, approached with eager eyes.

Jenny and the others glanced at Bi Xiao, knowing they couldn't make decisions about his food.

Bi Xiao didn't mind. He always liked cute children, as long as they weren't naughty. He generously handed out some grilled skewers and steaks to the kids.

The children thanked him joyfully and ran back to their parents.

The parents, upon hearing their children, came over to express their gratitude, even offering some of their homemade dishes.

Finding the group quite agreeable, with the girls and boys having good personalities, Bi Xiao suggested they all gather for a communal activity.

This attracted a crowd of tourists, including elderly couples.

Soon, dozens of tourists gathered around Bi Xiao's spot, setting up barbecue grills, makeshift kitchens, tables, and offering snacks and fruits.

The atmosphere became lively instantly.

People from different families and regions shared their specialties and unique dishes, creating an enjoyable experience. The children, eating snacks, ran around the adults.

A pretty little girl seemed to like Bi Xiao a lot, cuddling in his arms, which made Jenny and Ellie envious.

But who could compete with a cute little girl?

In addition, people played games, picked up musical instruments, and performed beautiful music. Listening to the music, they danced, even pulling Bi Xiao into the dance.

The elderly couples were also infected by the joyful atmosphere, happily showcasing their old skills.

The cheerful laughter and lively atmosphere spread throughout the riverbank, blending with the beautiful scenery.

This gathering lasted until late at night, continuously attracting many new visitors, leaving everyone with unforgettable memories and many new friends, regardless of age.

They exchanged contact information, planning future meetups.

There was no malice or sordid affairs, only joyful connections and friendships.

Bi Xiao also immersed himself in this atmosphere, momentarily forgetting many things, allowing his tense nerves from the past two years to relax completely.

Finally, when everyone was tired, they cleaned up and left.

Bi Xiao returned to his RV. Nothing unusual happened at night. Marcus and Paul drove the three girls away, as their families didn't want them to stay out overnight.

They all felt a bit reluctant, including Paul. They exchanged contact information, promising to visit each other in the future.

Bi Xiao didn't refuse, though he knew their friendship wouldn't last long.

He would remain the most mysterious Chinese boy in their eyes.

They were destined to be from two different worlds.

The next morning, Bi Xiao started a new journey, feeling a rare sense of relaxation and joy from the first day's experience.

Meanwhile, Bi Xiao's movements caught the attention of a certain black, bald, one-eyed man.

At the Long Island headquarters of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, Director's Office.

Nick Fury received news of Bi Xiao buying an RV and leaving New York.

“He’s finally on the move again?”

Nick Fury looked at the photos and records on his desk, showing the eye-catching RV on the streets of New York, and a joyful scene of tourists singing and dancing by the riverbank, evidently taken from a distance.
