Chapter 216
"What?"
Reno, who had fired the shot, was also shocked by Karnak's feat of splitting the bullet with his hand.
Karnak, however, hurriedly shouted to Ye Li, who was supporting Crystal, "Quick, take Crystal and find cover!"
Although he could split a bullet, he couldn't guarantee he'd succeed every time; one mistake and it would be all over.
Click~
Jolted by his shout, Reno immediately regained his senses, pulled the trigger of his revolver, and prepared to fire again—
Bang~!!
The ground suddenly shook violently, knocking both Reno and Karnak to the ground, and the revolver fired a shot into the sky.
As for Ye Li and the little princess he was supporting, they were unaffected.
Boom~
Gorgon ripped open the tent and rushed out; the earthquake just now had been caused by his cow hooves stomping the ground—this was his ability.
"No!"
Gorgon glanced at Jean, who was no longer breathing, ran viciously to Reno's side, and hoisted him up, "Why did you do this?!"
He was quite angry; Jean was, after all, a woman he had just interacted with, and she had even complimented his cow hooves.
"Heh~"
Reno, being held up, sneered, "The marijuana field has already been exposed, wouldn't I be an idiot if I didn't hurry up and run away with the money? This cheap woman dying is no loss."
"Did you kill Ted too?"
Gorgon turned his head to look, only to find that the Earth man who shared a similar personality to him was also nowhere to be seen.
"There."
Reno gestured toward a dirt pit, "I threw him in the pit."
"You!"
Seeing his indifferent, remorseless appearance.
Crystal couldn't stand it anymore and scolded, "They were all your companions, how could you bring yourself to do it?"
"Companions? Heh..."
Reno laughed, "Little girl, you're really naive. We only gathered together for money; who was actually their companion?"
"Let's go over there and take a look."
Seeing Reno captured by Gorgon, Karnak walked toward the dirt pit.
But as soon as he approached the pit.
He widened his eyes and screamed, "Triton!? You damn Earthling! You killed Triton too!!"
Gorgon: "Karnak, what did you say?!"
Crystal: "Triton is dead too?"
Bang, bang, bang...!
Gorgon stomped his hooves, dragging Reno, and ran to the edge of the pit in disbelief.
"Ye, please take me over to see too." The little princess pleaded with Ye Li.
Pain mixed with love flashed across her brows from time to time, and she was truly unable to move on her own.
Ye Li nodded, readily agreed, hooked his arms under her knees, gently carried her horizontally, and walked to the dirt pit.
They saw.
In the dirt pit.
Besides Ted's corpse, Triton's green corpse was also lying stiffly inside, clearly having met his end...
Crystal covered her little mouth, "No..."
"Triton!!"
Gorgon's eyes immediately turned red; he grabbed Reno by the throat and roared in anger, "I'm going to kill you!"
"Uh... no! I didn't kill him...!"
Reno's eyes bulged as he was choked; finally knowing fear, he begged and explained, "I saw him come out earlier and wanted to deal with him too, but he ran too fast... I don't know how he ended up in here!"
Snap!!
While Reno was still defending himself, Gorgon simply snapped his neck.
"Beast!"
Just as Gorgon finished cursing—
Pew~!
A blue beam of light shot from behind his head.
"Gorgon! Look out!" Karnak, who had sensed it, immediately pushed him away!
"Who?"
Crystal turned her head toward the direction the blue light came from and discovered a figure with large ears, "Auran! You traitor!"
"Help me kill Gorgon..."
Auran pointed her energy gun at Karnak and the others, "Then you all come with me, and I might consider sparing your lives."
Gorgon glared at her, "Did you kill Triton?"
"That's right. I didn't expect this guy to be here either; the news clearly stated he had been chased and killed by mercenaries. It seems he was faking his death."
Auran glanced at Triton's corpse and laughed arrogantly, "He even looks like he's been drained dry; it's obvious he's been away from water for a long time. Who knows what he was doing... Naturally, I wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to deal with him. After he refused to submit to my King, I sent him to die for real."
Karnak cursed angrily, "That madman Maximus, he's just a fake king!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Gorgon charged headlong toward Auran—!
"You're courting death!" Auran immediately prepared to fire.
Bang!!
Gorgon stomped the ground again, shaking Auran until she was unsteady, then took the opportunity to close the distance and grapple with her.
Karnak also picked up Reno's revolver and fired several shots at Auran—
Bang! Bang! Bang!
【Bullet!】
Auran's large ears were exceptionally sensitive; she stepped aside, trying to dodge based on the sound.
But Gorgon wouldn't give her the chance; he lunged forward and locked her in a desperate hold!
"Gorgon!!" Karnak shouted in surprise, but the bullet had already left the chamber; he couldn't stop it.
By the time the bullets were spent, Auran had two bloody holes in her forehead and collapsed to the ground...
And Gorgon had also been hit in a vital spot by a bullet; after vomiting a mouthful of blood, he too went silent...
Ye Li had been watching the show the whole time and felt quite speechless.
Looking so aggressive, only to end up as "box lunches" just like that.
These Inhumans seemed like they were here to be a joke...
Rustle, rustle, rustle...
After quickly burying Jean, Ted, Triton, and Gorgon,
Crystal said urgently to Ye Li, "Maximus has already sent people to Earth to attack, I must hurry and find my sister and the others!"
Although they were all royal family members.
The little princess wasn't very close to Triton and the others.
So she wasn't too sad, just worried about her own sister's safety.
"Alright, now only Black Bolt and Medusa are left to be found."
Ye Li suggested, "Since we're in a hurry, let's split up. I'll send you to find Black Bolt, and I'll go find your sister Medusa."
"This..."
Crystal thought for a moment, then nodded, "That's a good idea..."
As she spoke.
She shyly leaned into Ye Li's ear, kissed his earlobe lightly, and whispered, "But I'm not very convenient to move right now..."
Ye Li smiled meaningfully, "It's okay~ I'll help you recover."
Seeing the two being all lovey-dovey, Karnak pointed at himself, "What about me?"
"You stay here and take care of the aftermath."
Ye Li gestured toward the corpses of Auran and Reno, "Handle these two bodies as well, especially the one named Auran. Remember to be thorough, watch out for trackers and such."
After giving the orders.
He didn't care whether Karnak had listened or not.
He fished Seeing Seeing Alita, who was still sleeping soundly, out of the tent, and with her and the little princess in tow, he teleported away.
Whoosh~
After sending Crystal to find Black Bolt and splitting up.
Ye Li expanded his divine sense to search for Medusa.
But even after covering the entire island of Oahu with his divine sense, he couldn't find a trace of the Inhuman queen.
Expanding it to the entire state of Hawaii, still nothing...
【Could it be that Medusa had an accident... and wasn't sent to Hawaii by Lockjaw...?】
Ye Li decided not to fumble around blindly; he took out the communicator Crystal had given him and performed a network location search—
Finally.
At an aerospace base within the United States.
He locked onto the location of Medusa's communicator.
【Aerospace base... to think she'd end up in a place like that...】
Ye Li didn't think much more and teleported again—
Whoosh~
Doom Group.
Aerospace base.
Aerospace personnel lounge.
