American Comics Universe: I, the Containment Object Revealed at the Start

But then a strange thing happened: the troops had gone down countless flights of stairs, but the crying sound was still the same as before, and there was no sign of it getting any closer.

In other words, no matter how far they went, they couldn't get closer to the sound?

"Knock knock. Knock knock"

At that moment, a rhythmic tapping sound came from the wall next to them.

"Ahhhhh!!"

In the already quiet and dark environment, the woman's sobbing was terrifying enough.

Then suddenly, there was a knocking sound on the wall.

Everyone was so frightened that they couldn't help but scream.

"Stay calm! Don't panic!"

The captain immediately reassured all the team members, then took a deep breath.

"Report: I suspect there's something else in this stairwell space besides us. Should we continue exploring?"

"continue."

The voice coming from the other end of the walkie-talkie prompted the team to continue their advance.

Without hesitation, the captain ordered everyone to follow him down.

They had no idea how many floors they had gone down.

According to calculations, they must have already covered a distance of more than a kilometer.

Just imagine what it means to be a thousand meters underground.

No matter how you measure it, there is simply no such large space beneath the school.

In other words, once you step into this stairwell, you enter another space that stacks infinitely downwards, and no one knows if it will ever end.

Tony Stark: "What! Infinitely downward-superimposed space! How is that possible! This completely defies the laws of physics!"

Mordo: "Could this be some kind of incredibly advanced spatial magic?!"

Kamar-Taj.

Mordo has some understanding of this infinite space and possesses a particularly advanced spatial magic that can achieve it, much like how the Ancient One controlled mirror dimensions to continuously switch scenes, thus creating an effect of infinitely overlapping spaces.

"It's a pity that Master Gu Yi isn't here, otherwise I could ask her."

Strange glanced at the Sanctuary behind him.

The Ancient One is currently immersed in using a new source of magic to create a new era of magic for Kamar-Taj.

She won't show up unless something really troublesome happens.

Chopper: "But this is really scary! It's already dark enough, and then there are these strange noises. If it were me, I would have run away already!"

Naruto: "Yeah! It looks like a haunted place!"

Sengoku: "Wait a minute, run? Why didn't those missing people make it out in the end? If there's no end to going down there, surely someone would want to go back up?"

Bruce Wayne: "There is a possibility that going upwards is also a state of infinite space."

Orochimaru: "There's another possibility, which is that there's some unknown monster in that space."

Upon seeing Orochimaru's words, everyone recalled the scratches on the wall that had appeared earlier.

This is enough to show that there is another unknown creature in this space.

In an underground base, Orochimaru licked his lips as he looked at the screen.

"This is interesting. An infinite space? It's a bit like Izanami from the Uchiha clan, but this isn't a genjutsu. This screen can give me a lot of fun."

The screen continues showing the unit continuing its advance. They are all on tenterhooks. Fortunately, there are many of them; otherwise, if there were only one person, they would probably be terrified and might even disregard orders and run away.

In this pitch-black passage, there were no tools to tell time; their only means of support were their watches.

Time passed second by second. After ten or twenty minutes, the troops had gone down an unknown distance, definitely exceeding the height of the school.

What's even stranger is that the sound of a woman sobbing keeps coming from below, and no matter how they try to get closer, they can't get any closer.

Moreover, the sound of knocking on the wall persisted, and no one knew where it came from.

Just as everyone was about to continue down the stairs to the next floor, they saw a human figure standing on the platform below.

This person is leaning against the corner of the wall, doing something I don't know.

"Identify a person and make contact with them now."

After the captain finished speaking, he walked over cautiously.

"Hello, may I ask who you are and why you are here?"

The captain approached while asking questions.

Only when he gets close enough to the person can the flashlight barely illuminate them.

The captain's face turned grim.

The other person was completely naked, with muscles that looked severely rotten, claws on his hands, and was over two meters tall; he didn't look like a human!

Chapter 113 The Monster in the Stairwell

"Ahhhhh!!"

This unidentified creature roared and quickly turned around, waving its claws at the captain.

The captain didn't react in time and was hit directly.

He was wearing the highest-grade bulletproof vest, so he would have been fine even if he were caught in the aftershocks of an explosion.

However, even such a powerful bulletproof vest could not withstand the monster's claws, which pierced through it and dug out its heart.

He killed the captain with a single move.

"Ho ho ho!!"

"Ahhhhh!!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The roars, screams, and gunshots of the monster echoed throughout the stairwell at that moment.

In this chaotic situation, it can be seen that the bullets hitting this monster cannot cause any useful damage; they mostly just cause grazes, and some bullets are even deflected.

This is enough to show just how terrifying this monster's defense is!

Several team members died from the monster's claws.

Even if someone tried to escape, they were caught in no time.

"Come on!"

One of the team members shouted to the remaining person, and then pulled the pins on the two high-explosive grenades on his body.

A terrifying explosion was unleashed!

The platform was filled with raging flames, but strangely, despite the immense power of the explosion, the flames failed to illuminate the dark stairwell.

At this moment, the last team member used all his strength to run upwards, trying to get away from this terrible place as soon as possible.

There were many people around, and even in the strange environment, he wasn't particularly afraid.

But now he's all alone, how can he not be afraid? He's on the verge of a mental breakdown.

The environment was dark, the light source was weak, and the sounds of crying and banging on the walls filled my ears. In addition, the gruesome scene of my teammates' deaths lingered in my mind.

This completely drove the special forces soldier to the brink of madness. He screamed and ran upstairs, desperate to get out of this hellhole.

He ran too fast, which caused him to slip and fall heavily.

Just as he was about to stand up, the monster's howl rang out.

The monster chased up from downstairs, but the power of the high-explosive grenade did not kill it; in fact, no injuries could be seen on its body.

"Ahhhhh!!"

As the monster drew ever closer, the soldier became so terrified that he lost all reason and began firing indiscriminately, but to no avail.

The soldier's fate was predictable, and the screen switched back to the entrance to the stairwell at that moment.

Those responsible for providing support outside heard the screams of the troops through walkie-talkies and knew what had happened.

Subsequently, the containment organization dispatched more capable troops with sophisticated weapons to go down and eliminate the monster, thoroughly exploring the secrets of the stairwell.

But the monster was so terrifying that it could not be destroyed with any known weapon.

Furthermore, according to the report, some units seemed to have managed to eliminate the monster, but as they continued to advance, the monster reappeared.

Whether this monster will endlessly regenerate in the stairwell, or whether there is more than one, no one knows.

Even if a squad is lucky enough not to encounter any monsters, they might be driven mad by the environment and start shooting at their own people.

After countless lives were lost, the containment organization finally stopped exploring the stairwell.

The entrance to the stairwell was completely sealed off with cement, the school was bought, and the memories of irrelevant personnel were erased to prevent anyone from approaching the place.

The video ends abruptly here.

Everyone seemed to want more.

Orochimaru: "Haha! It seems my guess was right. There really is a terrifying monster in this stairwell. This is interesting. And what kind of weapons are these? They're so powerful."

Rhodes: "Hey, doesn't this guy know anything about guns and cannons? And why is he so happy to see a monster?"

Jiraiya: "There's something wrong with his head."

Natasha: "The dark environment, the cramped space, the terrifying monster—it's all the stuff of a third-rate horror movie."

"Now begin predicting the universe where the contained object will appear."

Upon seeing this, everyone stopped talking.

Rhodes: "A containment object has appeared? Is this stairwell going to appear?"

Tony Stark: "Yes, the containment objects mentioned on this screen will randomly appear in the world of each of us viewers. If it actually appears in my world, I'll definitely have to study this stairwell carefully. This kind of infinitely stacked space is really interesting!"

After Tony Stark obtained the Void Engine, he possessed a Dark Space. If he could use the Void Engine to understand the principle of infinitely superimposed space, could he use it in the Dark Space, thus giving him infinite spatial capacity?
