Even if Betty wasn’t making calls, the virus could continuously transmit her GPS signal from the background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the location data Chloe provided, the last signal from Betty’s phone disappeared deep in a forest on the outskirts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason infused the other three with energy, temporarily granting them the ability to fly, and they sped to the airspace above the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dense forest was a perfect escape route. Even a criminal with no counter-surveillance skills could disappear into the mountains, and without a massive grid search, they’d be almost impossible to find.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Hulk’s intelligence was childlike, this subconscious choice was the right one. Most importantly, it had masked the GPS signal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason’s own powers weren’t suited for tracking, but the team had an expert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"David, find the Hulk!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>David flew ahead, descending closer to the ground and moving away from the others. He swallowed, closed his eyes briefly, and then opened his mouth to unleash an ultrasonic wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An invisible ripple spread out, feeding back the terrain details within a several-kilometer radius to David’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a dozen seconds, David shook his head and flew to a different area, while Jason and the others waited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harley, thinking of the upcoming fight, couldn’t help but ask, \"Honey, do you really think David’s super-wave can beat the Hulk?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John: \"Infrasonic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harley: \"Same thing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason smiled and shook his head. \"Based on that video, infrasound can definitely suppress the Hulk, but it can’t defeat him. The one who will truly defeat him... is me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he held out his right hand, and a pale blue energy sword materialized in his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harley moved closer, staring at the blade. The energy sword had a design. On the surface, it looked like crystal, almost fragile, but a closer look revealed the energy flowing within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So pretty!\" Harley marveled, but then asked, \"Honey, you said last time that your full-power sword could only cut his waist. Even with David suppressing him, it’ll still be hard to win, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason dismissed the sword and looked at them. \"That’s why I need you two to lock him down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"John’s ice power is obvious. He’s a natural for control.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for you, Harley, you’ve been developing your power the way I taught you for over half a year. How’s it coming?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harley’s eyes lit up. \"I can lock an RPG rocket in place for ten seconds!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Here’s the plan: David suppresses him, you and John lock him down, and I’ll deliver the attack.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, John interjected, \"Boss, the plan is perfect, but the only problem is damage output. Even you, our heavy hitter, could only give him a minor wound.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason smiled. \"John, you were a legendary assassin. You should understand that to kill, you attack the weak points.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John nodded, frowning. \"Right, but the waist is a weak point. With the right angle, a short blade can slip past the ribs and hit the organs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason waved him off, a sinister smile spreading. \"Don’t worry. I’ve found a spot even more vulnerable than his waist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John asked, \"What spot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason was about to answer when David flew back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, I found the monster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go. As for the weak spot... you’ll see in a minute.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk was hiding in a cave over ten kilometers away. David’s echolocation had pinpointed his exact position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Betty was lying unconscious deep in the cave, with the Hulk guarding her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll say hello.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four flew to the mouth of the cave. Jason formed an energy ball in one hand and hurled it at the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!A deafening blast echoed from the cave mouth. Surrounding rocks shattered and tumbled down the mountainside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, an enraged roar came from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hulk emerged from the cave, his fists clenched, his dark green pupils filled with killing intent. The explosion had nearly harmed Betty, which made him furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The monster’s angry. Be careful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of the four, only Jason had ever fought the Hulk. He was all too familiar with this state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk bent his knees, pushed off the ground, and shot toward the four of them with a bang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Scatter!\" Jason yelled, and they immediately dodged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk hit nothing but air, crashing to the ground and leaving a large crater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good chance! David, do it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>David, who had been gathering his power, immediately descended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he was less than fifty meters from the Hulk, he took a deep breath and unleashed his infrasonic wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"AHHH!!!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk had just regained his footing when he felt an intense vibration wash over him. The infrasonic wave’s frequency matched that of his internal organs, immediately causing them to resonate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An ordinary person would have died instantly, but the Hulk merely dropped to his knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, John and Harley swooped down, landing outside the range of David’s attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John crouched and slammed both palms on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A visible wave of frost, glowing white, shot straight and fast toward the Hulk. The frost struck his lower body, and a thin layer of ice instantly formed on his green skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk sensed something was wrong and roared, trying to break free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ice was still thin and fragile. With a slight effort from the Hulk, cracks began to spiderweb across it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t move, you monster!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harley appeared on the opposite side. She held her hands out, parallel, palms facing inward, and then clapped them together hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant the clap sounded, Hulk’s struggles stopped cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harley’s \"space lock\" principle was simple. First, she created a spatial barrier exactly the size of the Hulk, a simple task for her powers. Then, she \"fitted\" this barrier over his body and continuously reinforced it. The barrier was a perfect, skin-tight fit, without even a millimeter of room. Trapped inside, the Hulk was completely immobile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Harley helping to restrain him, the pressure on John vanished. The ice rapidly spread, encasing the Hulk’s entire body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not enough! I’ll freeze the blood in your veins!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His freezing power intensified. A massive amount of cold energy seeped through the Hulk’s skin, slowly freezing his green blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, the three of them working together had managed to control the beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their teamwork wasn’t perfect, but considering this was their first time trying it without practice, it was a passing grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very good! My turn.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jason descended from the sky, his full-power energy sword in hand, and slowly walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can read advance Chapters and view R-18 images of the characters on pat reon page.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>pat reon.com\u002FGreenBlue17\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>500 power stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Top 100.
