Just when Sherron and Afu met, at the National Museum of New York, two guards were patrolling the museum according to the prescribed route. They have experienced this kind of patrol thousands of times since they joined the company, and they are already familiar with it.
At the National Museum late at night, most of the lights are turned off, leaving only a few lights on key exhibits, so the entire museum is a bit dim. But this is hard to do, these guards have already memorized the route by heart.
"Paul, has your daughter found a boyfriend?"
"I found one, but I broke his leg, so we separated."
"Oh, you are such a bastard father..."
The two guards were chatting while patrolling, but when they arrived at the fifth exhibition hall, they heard some unusual noises.
"Control room, here are the patrol guards. We are now in the fifth exhibition hall, which is the Egyptian area... Yes, we have found some abnormalities. Please turn on the lights in the whole hall."
With a "bang" sound, the originally dark exhibition hall was brightly lit.
The two guards held their guns on their waists and carefully looked around. Soon they opened their eyes wide and looked at something in horror.
A moment later, shrill screams echoed in the exhibition hall.
An hour later, the museum was blocked by numerous police cars. The reporters who came after hearing the news excitedly gathered outside the warning zone and said to the camera: "... Just an hour ago, the National Museum suddenly issued an alarm... According to gossip, six guards have been lost to the outside world. Contact... We still don’t know what happened inside... But you can see that in addition to the New York Police Department, NIA agents also arrived, and even a garbage truck... "
In the footage, a seemingly ordinary garbage truck, but larger than an ordinary garbage truck, slowly drove into the museum gate.
"05, 05, the big red guy and the blue fish have arrived."
"01, the venue is cleared, sportswear is allowed to enter."
The museum door rumblingly closed. At this time, apart from the agents in black uniforms, there was only this strange garbage truck left in the museum compound.
“Crunch…”
A stream of white gas sprayed out from the back door of the garbage truck, and with the sound of mechanical pressure relief, the hatch opened, revealing a strong man at least two meters tall, with red skin, wearing a yellow windbreaker, and a long red tail, swaying got out of the garbage truck.
And behind this red-skinned strong man is a strange-looking blue-skinned fish-man.
"Hellboy," an agent stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "The monster is in the museum, but no one has made any progress yet, so no one knows what is going on inside."
"Don't worry, young man." Hellboy said with a cigar in his mouth, "As long as I'm here, any monster will be smashed to pieces."
"Don't underestimate each other, son." The white-haired Dr. Bloom walked over from the side with a cane and said solemnly, "I have a hunch that the monster inside is extraordinary."
"Father, you are back." The tall and burly Hellboy seemed a little reserved in front of the old man, "I heard that our department is going to be folded. Is this a rumor?"
"My child, you have to focus on your work and leave everything else to me."
Dr. Bloom patted Hellboy's thick arm and said to the blue fishman behind him: "Abby, start working."
"As you command, Doctor."
The fishman stepped forward to the closed museum door, stretched out his finned palm, and pressed it gently on the door. However, as soon as his palm touched it, a shiver ran through his body and he quickly retracted his hand.
"Baron, here... there is a very evil, very powerful monster."
The fishman pointed at the museum door, his voice trembling.
"Evil and powerful? Great, leave it to me."
Hellboy stepped forward carelessly and pulled out a revolver from his waist that was almost thicker than an ordinary person's thigh. He pushed open the museum door and strode in.
Seeing the museum door closed again, the fish-man Abby returned to Dr. Bloom and whispered: "Doctor, I can feel that you are a little anxious and nervous, but it is not for yourself, but for us?"
He blinked his big eyes and looked at Dr. Bloom: "Are the rumors true? The Paranormal Investigation and Defense Agency is going to be cancelled, and we are really going to be merged into a new department?"
"The rumors are true," Dr. Bloom sighed and whispered, "I don't want Hellboy to be distracted, but for you, I still hope you are mentally prepared."
He patted the fishman on the shoulder: "But as I said just now, your focus now must be on your work. At least for now, the new department is more suitable for you to display your abilities."
"But doctor, Hellboy is not willing to obey any human orders except you." Fishman Abby frowned, "After the new department is merged, I'm worried that Hellboy will..."
"Don't worry, according to the latest news I got, after the merger of the new department, you will continue to be led and commanded by me for the time being." Dr. Bloom nodded, "But don't tell Hellboy about this news yet, I hope he is here Things can grow a little bit.”
"Oh... don't worry about this, doctor, I will never tell that stupid guy."
As Abby spoke, she shook her fin-like ears guiltily.
After entering the museum, Hellboy, who had been motionless, heard the voice coming from the earphones. He suddenly roared in anger and smashed an exhibition glass cabinet next to him with one punch.
A loud noise came out, startling the agents outside.
"What's wrong? Baron, what happened inside?"
"Uh... It's nothing, I just accidentally slipped my hand." Hellboy shook his thick arm and said angrily, "Abby, have you found out the information about the monster inside?"
"Wait a moment, Baron, I'm investigating."
Abby quickly opened her treasure box, pulled out strange magic books one after another, and flipped through them quickly.
Hellboy also put away his little thoughts and continued walking inside the museum. Soon he walked to the fifth exhibition hall and saw that most of the exhibits in the exhibition hall had been smashed, and the ground was littered with blood.
But apart from the blood, there were only tattered clothes and shoes on the ground, and no bodies.
Hellboy squatted down and picked up a boot with his gun, only to see that the boot was covered with a thick, unknown transparent liquid.
"Baron, I seem to have found it." Abby looked at the book in front of her and said slightly nervously, "According to my monitoring, the monster's name is Almonte Bi, the son of Hell Demon King Azazel..."
Hellboy slowly raised his head, looked at a ball of black flesh hanging from the ceiling, and snorted: "Okay, I've seen this thing... Fuck, it's really ugly!"
With a roar, a half-bitten corpse fell from the ceiling. Then the flesh ball expanded and turned into a terrifying monster with four eyes and tentacles flying on its face.
"Hello, big-faced monster, I'm sorry to disturb you from enjoying the buffet!"
Hellboy shrugged, raised the huge revolver, pointed it at the monster and pulled the trigger.
