Chapter 18 [Endless Karmic Fire]

Hammer Industry broke out of control in an incident of steel soldiers at the Stark Fair, and was soon surrounded by TV stations, newspaper reporters and police officers who rushed to the scene.

Melinda took Chris and Skye to evacuate secretly in the crowd. As for Little Pepper Potz, she disagreed with leaving the scene and insisted on thinking that all this was Justin Hammer's responsibility. She called the police while walking backstage.

When he arrived at the parking lot outside the expo, Skye looked at the rows of cars that were destroyed by steel soldiers not far away, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Huh... Fortunately, our RVs were parked far enough, otherwise they would probably end up like these cars."

Suddenly, Melinda shouted, "Do away!"

Chris subconsciously hugged Skye and quickly took more than ten steps back. Suddenly, a destroyed steel soldier fell from the sky. He accidentally hit the top of Skye's RV, and instantly smashed a big hole in the roof of the RV.

Seeing that his beloved car was smashed, Skye broke free from Chris' arms, looked at the Iron Man flying away from the sky, and raised his middle finger angrily: "Fake!"

"It seems that your car can't be driven anymore." Melinda walked over at this time, looked at the smashed RV, and said to Chris: "Our director wants to see you, so you and I will take the car over."

"You Director wants to see me?"

Chris frowned. He didn't want to deal with Ludan. The other party was a guy who was more than ten times more difficult than Colson. He was not only meticulous but also cunning. He was a pure person like a piece of white paper, and he was like a lamb to be slaughtered in front of Ludan.

Melinda thought Chris was worried about her safety, so she had to comfort her with words: "Yes, you don't have to worry, the director just wanted to have a good chat with you."

At this time, Melinda dared not fight with Chris head-on. The flame that could melt the steel soldier would probably melt the human body, and it would only take a few seconds.

After hearing Melinda say this, Chris knew that it would be impossible not to see the braised eggs. He glanced at Skye beside him and said in a deep voice: "I can go and meet your director, but Skye must be with me."

Melinda glanced at the unarmed Skye, and nodded silently and said, "This is natural."

Skye realized at this time that the two of them were going to take them away together, and couldn't help but say, "Hey, are you going there? Are you going to take Chris to the hospital?"

Chris reached out and touched his back. His back, which was originally fumbled by a stray bullet, was instantly recovered by the awakened snake bloodline: "My injury should be healed."

Skye ran behind Chris after hearing this, and sure enough, she saw her smooth back without any scars. Before she could be amazed, she heard Melinda say,

"You will know when you get to the place."

Melinda pressed the invisible earphones hidden in her ears and muttered a few words in a low voice, only to see a pure black Chevrolet business car driving over the opposite side of the street slowly.

“Get on the bus.”

The three of them got into the car one by one. Melinda took the lead in sitting in the passenger seat and said to Riofez who was driving: "Go to the New York branch."

"Yes, sir."

Riofez nodded, then activated the engine to head towards the New York branch of SHIELD, but his eyes kept looking at Chris sitting behind him through the rearview mirror. He just now heard from the monitoring device that the boy named Chris had recovered his flame power.

Compared to Riofez who could only peek through the rearview mirror, Jamma Simmons stared at Chris nakedly, sighing in his heart that such a small little boy could actually release a magical flame that could instantly melt the steel soldier. If Agent May hadn't been there, she would have asked the other party directly if she could lend me your flame to study for a few days.

Since getting on the car, Chris has been leaning on the seat, thinking about the power of the bloodline of the snake that had just awakened, so he did not notice the gaze of Jamma Simmons.

Instead, Skye, who was sitting next to her, stared at the pretty face of Jamma Simmons sitting opposite him. Skye's eyes showed a hint of hostility.

The business car drove less than a kilometer away, and several violent explosions came from behind. It was the self-destruction device installed by Ivan Vanke among the steel soldiers.

These self-destructive steel soldiers bombed the Stark Expo beyond recognition. Most of the buildings were demolished to flat ground, and Skye's RV was completely destroyed.

Skye, who was completely unaware that his beloved RV had been destroyed into debris, was still staring at Jenma Simmons heartlessly, and could not hear the violent explosion roar behind him.

...

On the way to the New York branch of SHIELD, Chris kept closing his eyes and pondering some of the remaining memories of the original owner.

Before the flame ability was awakened, some of the remaining memories left by the original owner had never been able to completely merge with Chris. The more you think, the more painful it was. So recently, Chris has not thought about these things. Now after awakening the flame ability, there is no such barrier, as if the memories of the two are completely integrated.

Before today, Chris had always thought that his ability to fire had been sealed by three artifacts, but it seemed that it was not. The three artifacts were only the power of the snake that was left in the body.

The blood of the snakes that were passed down from the origin of the Great Snake clan in Chris' body was not sealed by the power of the three divine artifacts. The reason why he had not awakened before was also obtained some answers from his memory. It turned out that the original owner released his ability too much in the state of rampage, which led to the unique fire generated by the bloodline temporarily falling into dormant.

This is like ordinary people. After an extraordinary outbreak, the body will fall into a period of fatigue and its various functions will decrease a lot.

After recalling the remaining memories of the original owner, Chris gained a deeper understanding of the strange fire in his body.

From the fusion memory, we learned that the flame ability controlled by Chris is very different from that of Kyo Kusanagi, Yagami and others.

As one of the three artifacts guardian families, the Kusanagi family's bloodline was given the Immortal Fire (Red Flame). As Yagami An, who is also the Three Artifacts guardian families, the strange fire of his own bloodline is the Immortal Fire just like Kyo Kusanagi.

However, Yagami An had a blood contract with Orochi in his early years, and he was not the candidate for the "Eight Masters Collection", so the Immortal Flame underwent some kind of mutation, which caused the color of the Cyan Fire it released to be purple, which was very different from the karma fire (black purple flame) controlled by Chris.

The karma fire controlled by Chris is his natural ability in the bloodline of the eight heroes of the Big Snake clan.

This flame, called "Karma Fire", originated from the "Karma Fire" born under the anger of the Orochi of the Earth (island country), can be said to be far more than the Red Flame given to Kyo Kusanagi by the three artifacts, and the variant Cangyan of Yagami.

Previously, when facing those steel soldiers at Hammer's press conference, the move Chris used was called Dark Snake in the game "King of Fighters 97". In reality, the original owner called it "endless karma fire". With one move, it will quickly expand and ferment in the air and will soon spread around. Unless the enemy is completely melted into nothingness, or Chris's will makes it extinguish, it will always burn.

This move "Endless Karma Fire" and another move "Wind the Earth's Karma Fire" are both the two strongest moves created by Chris after awakening the bloodline of the Big Snake clan.

The fire of ignorance is also called the fire of hell by people in the King of Fighters world. It is an existence under the sky that is enough to burn and annihilate all.

Even such a powerful karma fire of ignorance has a fatal disadvantage, that is, it cannot be used excessively.

This is like playing games. Most characters must have blue skills when they release skills. If they forcefully exert excessively, it will be the same as the original owner's state after he ran away from control. The karma fire ability granted by his bloodline will fall into a deep sleep. As for when it can be awakened again, no one can know.

Therefore, after the original owner awakened his bloodline, he rarely used the ability of karma fire, and he could only use it at the critical moment of life and death. On the one hand, he hoped to exercise his fighting skills and physical strength, and on the other hand, he did not want to rely too much on karma fire.

As for how many blue bars are and how many times they can be used, this is related to Chris' physical strength. As long as he has sufficient physical strength, in a sense, he can be used infinitely.

Although Chris' physique is naturally superior to ordinary people due to the bloodline of the snake, and his personal sensitivity is far superior to that of ordinary fighters. However, he is always a human being and has not reached a higher level of life. Therefore, if he overexerts, he will still be like the lack of blue in the game character, and his karma fire cannot be used.

"It turns out that the flames from Yagami are different. I'm afraid that they can freeze the enemy with the flames like Yagami."

After Chris completely reviewed the part of the original owner's memory in his mind, he realized that there was still a lot of difference between his karma fire and Yagami's Cangyan.

Before this, Chris had not carefully sorted out the original owner's memory, so he always thought that the flames of the two were similar.

PS: The ability of the protagonist of this book, Chris, is based on the game and official settings of King of Fighters 97, as well as himself. It is not the King of Fighters in Hong Kong comics, so I will only refer to some settings that appear in Hong Kong comics and may be added.

Secondly, Chris' real ability is the power of the big snake sealed in his body.
