Chapter 316 Gwen's Joy and Pain
"Left! Left!"

Young Ben shouted at Richard, grabbed the steering wheel and swung it to the left.

The car narrowly passed the monster.

But the monster with tentacles rushed in front of the car in an instant.

"squeak!"

Richard stepped on the brakes and immediately turned the steering wheel sharply, trying to avoid the monster's attack, but was still attacked.

"Boom!"

The front compartment of the car was deformed by the attack, and Richard was also shocked.

Ben's head only hit once, but it still hurt so much that he gasped.

"Shet!"

Ben uttered a curse and opened the car door to pull himself and Richard out.

"here."

The two soon found a place to hide - a nearby restaurant.

Ben pulled Richard into the restaurant, quickly turned right, squeezed through the diners, and rushed into a room full of people.

This is no ordinary restaurant, it looks like it is specially prepared for students from the neighborhood.

There is a school near the farm Ben purchased.

The dining table in the restaurant is not a long steel table, but a round wooden table.

Under the diners' feet is an old red carpet covered with dust.

Instead of buzzing fluorescent lights above these people's heads, there was a chandelier filled with a warm golden glow.

At the far end are food stations, beverage vending machines, and a cafeteria.

A guy wearing an incredible white chef's hat and cutting beef ribs looked like a waiter in the White House.

The smells hit Ben suddenly.

He immediately recognized what the food was, gravy, pizza, and something sweet, something containing apples and cinnamon.

Shaking his head, he pushed this strange thought out of his mind.

Now that we are being chased, escaping is the most important thing.

He glanced back and saw the monster chasing the two men was following closely behind.

While everyone in the restaurant was staring at the two people who suddenly broke in, Ben and Richard quickly moved between the tables.

A younger girl with pigtails standing in front of the two of them holding a tray stopped and stared at him in shock, like a deer in headlights.

Ben moved to the right, nimbly leaping onto a table and leaping straight over, quickly avoiding the other man.

One of his feet stepped into a girl's plate, and he almost lost his balance and nearly broke his head.

However, his arms spun around and his legs followed closely behind his body.

Richard grabbed him and helped him keep his balance.

The two jumped down and landed on the ground, passing by a girl who was standing there like a fool, and then passed by a girl who was putting books into her schoolbag.

"Wow!"

The glass in the restaurant shattered, and then, amid everyone's screams of fear, the tentacle monster rushed into the restaurant.

"run!"

Richard shouted to the crowd as he ran.

The crowd screamed and the sound of plates falling to the ground could be heard one after another.

Screams and screams echoed in the restaurant.

Richard grabbed Ben who was almost unable to run and said, "Ben, the time you spent lying on the sofa watching TV must have damaged your running controller.

Faced with his brother's complaints, Ben smiled bitterly.

He glanced back.

That monstrous guy was like a bull charging in a china shop.

Any girl who touched him was knocked to the ground by his body, tables were bumped and drinks spilled.

The girls screamed and ran away, and many people hid behind the counter or under the dining table.

The tentacles of the monster's arms look very thick and exude a terrifying aura.

Ben grabbed a handful of food from a plate and threw it at the other man's head.

A chicken drumstick hit him hard between the eyes and fell to the floor with a thud.

While the monster was confused, Ben threw the plate at it.

The enraged monster rushed towards him.

Just as he approached Ben, Richard kicked a chair in front of him.

With a "bang", the chair was smashed to pieces.

"We need to get out of here immediately. We need an exit."

An anxious Richard said to Ben.

“Right behind me!”

Ben threw the last plate at the other party and ran back quickly.

There was an exit right behind the two of them, with a glowing red sign - emergency exit.

Right there!

Richard also turned quickly, ran to the door and bolted it.

Then he pulled over a rack full of plates, which were covered with used plates and leftovers, and blocked it behind him.

With a clang, the plate collapsed to the ground as the metal door hit it.

Then the door was pushed open, and the monster, shaped like a sturdy, aggressive gazelle, jumped directly in front of the two people.

The two looked at the monster in shock as it approached them step by step.

The students hiding in the cafeteria at this time were so nervous that they didn't dare to breathe.

Ben and Richard backed away slowly.

"Whoosh!"

Just as the two were about to take action, they didn't expect that the monster with tentacles on its hands moved faster. It grabbed Ben's hair and threw him heavily to the ground.

Seeing Ben being attacked, Richard immediately picked up a nearby crowbar and prepared to fight the monster.

The tentacle monster swung out its tentacles, trying to kill Richard.

The next second, a sound of breaking air was heard.

Under Richard's astonished gaze, the tentacles that were grabbing him were directly cut off by the black spider-like object that rushed over.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound was heard, and the monster's tentacles were cut off directly.

Seeing the monster's tentacles being cut off, Richard raised his head in astonishment and looked into the distance.

Towards the entrance of the restaurant, a mysterious and deep-looking guy covered in a black exoskeleton slowly walked over.

"This is.?!"

Looking at the somewhat familiar figure, Richard was stunned.

Why does the other person give me a familiar and friendly feeling? !

"Boom!"

As Ben and Richard stared at him in a daze, Peter instantly moved to the monster, grabbed its neck, and slammed it heavily to the ground.

"boom!"

There was a deafening sound from the ground.

The hard floor was shattered in an instant, and dust quickly spread along the ground into the restaurant.

The girls hiding in the restaurant covered their mouths and noses with their hands, looking at the scene in disbelief.

What kind of monster is this? !
Richard swallowed and turned his gaze to Peter, who was covered in darkness.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Peter grabbed the tentacle that the tentacle monster was throwing towards him.

"Oh!"

The monster was thrown out again and hit the wall heavily.

"Shet!"

Ben, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but swear as he watched everything in front of him.

"run!"

Looking at Peter cleaning up the monster, Richard, who didn't know whether Peter was a friend or an enemy, shouted at Ben. Ben subconsciously followed him and ran outside.

The door swung open and the two men walked up the stairs and stumbled onto a concrete platform.

The pigeon on the platform spread its wings and flew away.

If it weren't for the green metal railing, they would have continued forward and fallen into the parking lot ten feet below.

The metal railings caught them like a net.

The two men climbed over the railing, and Richard felt like he had just drunk a churning pot of rocket fuel broth mixed with adrenaline and vomit.

However, a scene that made the two feel desperate appeared - another monster with tentacles in the sky rushed towards them.

"Shit! I can't run anymore."

Ben almost collapsed from exhaustion.

Richard was looking at the monster in the sky and was thinking about how to fight back when the monster had already rushed over.

Frightened, Ben turned around and tried to run, but ended up running into a sign.

With a "bang", Ben, who was hit on the head, fell directly to the ground.

Seeing Ben unconscious, Richard felt even more overwhelmed.

Just as he was anxiously thinking about how to fight back, he suddenly heard a sound like an explosion.

The monster was knocked directly to the ground and rolled along the ground.

Then Wanda and Helen appeared on the scene.

"You guys!"

Richard looked at the two women in shock.

He didn't expect that the guests he had entertained at home before would rescue him in this way at the critical moment.

"Hi, Mr. Richard."

Wanda waved and greeted the other party.

Peter, who rushed to the scene, originally wanted to conceal his identity, but when he saw Wanda exposed, he had no choice but to take off the mask covering his face.

Even if he didn't take it off, he believed that this cheap old man would be able to guess that he was the person who had just dined with them.

Richard watched the mask on Peter's face slowly fall off, his mouth wide open and his eyes dull.

He is a rational scientist, but everything that happened today challenges his scientific knowledge.

At first, a monster suddenly appeared and chased us, and then Peter and his group appeared.

"Who are you?!"

It took him a long time to ask this question.

"These monsters should be related to us."

Peter did not answer directly, but said to him: "Mr. Richard, I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."

Richard glanced at Ben lying on the ground, then looked at Peter.

"Are you aliens? Or people from the future?"

Richard calmed down and asked Peter and his group.

Although this inference is ridiculous, he thinks it is the most reasonable explanation at present.

"Almost. For your safety, Mr. Richard, you and Ms. Mary had better stay with us."

Peter suggested to him.

Gwen dealt with the tentacle monster, and then she quickly found her mother according to the spider mark left on her mother.

When she saw Peter, she jumped up excitedly and hugged him.

"Great, Peter, you're okay."

Gwen said excitedly, "I thought I would never find you again."

In a strange era, Gwen was inexplicably teleported here by Doctor Strange, and she even thought she might never see Peter again.

"I'm fine, Gwen."

Peter patted her head gently.

He glanced at Helen next to him and saw that his future mother-in-law was still standing there.

I'm a little uncomfortable with such passionate actions.

night.

Uncle Ben and Aunt May were arranged to stay in the villa, and Mary and Richard Parker were also arranged to move in.

However, Ben, Aunt May, and Mary did not know that they were temporarily protected. They thought that Peter and his group had invited them to the villa.

Richard knew the truth, but for the sake of his pregnant wife's feelings, he had to remain silent.

He already had some doubts about the relationship between Peter and himself.

Peter admitted that he was an alien or a man from the future. Based on the other person's appearance and inexplicably familiar temperament, Richard even had a guess in his mind that he himself thought was impossible.

Standing up, he rummaged through the pile of books he had brought with him, and finally found a book called "Conjectures and Impossibilities in Quantum Physics".

Meanwhile, Gwen is in Helen's room.

She now cherishes every second she spends with her mother.

Even though my mother now looks like a rebellious girl.

The villa that Peter just rented has a lot of books stored in it.

Helen moved along the bookshelves like a busy hummingbird.

Gwen asked curiously, "Did you find anything interesting?"

"No, I just want to see if there are any romance novels like that here."

Gwen was speechless.

It turns out that when my mother was young, she liked to read romance novels.

I understand my mother a little better.

"Well." Helen blinked, "If I secretly take a book, the owner here will personally drag me to the detention center, right?"

"Detention center?"

"It's a word for prison."

"I know what that means."

"What? You don't like to be pedantic? I do."

Gwen didn't know how to talk to her mother. She felt that her mother's thoughts were very distracted at this time, so she coughed and said, "Good, have you been to the police station?"

"Probably not. I was a good student until a week ago."

Helen said that she had only become a bad student a week ago.

"Can I ask you something?"

She sat down next to Gwen, "You and Peter, are you really aliens?"

"Well, we came here with a purpose."

"That must be kept secret, I guess. But this sense of mystery has always attracted me, and it's not bad. To be honest, I'm even a little obsessed with Peter."

"Uh"

When Gwen heard her mother's words, she immediately felt bad.

What is this, a Back to the Future scene?
(Back to the Future: The protagonist returns to his parents' youth and unexpectedly attracts his young mother)
Gwen, who felt that the situation was a little dangerous, said, "It's a very dangerous thing. You can't have too much contact with Peter."

"why?"

"Reasons? Even if I tell you, you won't believe it."

"Let's give it a try."

"I can tell you, but not now. You have to wait."

"Yeah, okay, I have enough patience, but sometimes coming into contact with this kind of thing is beyond my control."

Helen smiled slyly.

Gwen: "."

She was silent for a while, then hesitantly asked Helen, "Can I ask you a question?"

"of course can."

"Suppose I saw a person lying on the road, and she was about to die. If I tried to save her, it might lead to the destruction of the world. If you were me, what would you do?"

Gwen said uncomfortably: "I have tried to intervene and change certain things, but it always turns out badly because I made it worse. I know, but you may not believe me. I could have saved that person, or I could have left. I could have done nothing, but I always couldn't control myself."
