Chapter 11: Awakening

Just like a lyric, the most frightening thing is the air suddenly becoming quiet.

It was too embarrassing; just finished stealing things in someone's house, and then turned around and ran into the owner. Was there anything more tragic than this?

After a moment of silence, Popclaw came back to her senses, her gaze falling on the reagent box in MM's arms, and her pupils shrank instantly.

The other party's target was Compound V!

This thing was strictly prohibited from circulation; if Vought International discovered it, she would be finished!

"Put it down!"

Popclaw had immense strength. Under emotional agitation, she stepped and shattered the floor with one foot.

Leaving deep dents on the wooden board, she pounced toward the three people inside the room like a cheetah.

Fortunately, Butcher reacted very quickly and slammed the door shut.

Bang!

The apartment door was four or five centimeters thick, but it was still pierced by a bone spur.

A mere door couldn't stop a crazy superhuman; the cement around the door frame was rattled, and it looked like it wouldn't hold up.

"What the fuck are you still dazed for?!" Butcher hurriedly pushed over the cabinet next to him, blocking the door, hoping to buy time, and turned to shout at the two who were dazed: "Quick, go out the window, jump down; if you're any slower, we'll all die!"

The wooden door behind them had already been smashed open, and shattered wood chips flew everywhere.

Popclaw squeezed in from the crack, looking ferociously at the three who jumped out of the window.

The apartment she rented was on the third floor, with a drop of nearly six meters to the ground, and there was no area for buffering next to it. Jumping down directly would definitely cause injury!

There was still a chance! She still had a chance!

Popclaw pondered, her flesh exploding with astonishing power, tearing through the last layer of obstruction.

But just as she rushed to the window in two or three steps and poked her head out to look, she found that the position where the three fell happened to have a black van.

Although they were thrown quite hard, the three of them still scrambled into the van, and then she could only watch helplessly as that black van carried the three of them away, leaving behind only her unwilling, angry roar.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

MM, sitting in the car, kept spraying beautiful words, asking about Butcher's family.

He grabbed Butcher by the collar angrily, throwing him heavily against the car door, his eyes looking as if they were filled with blood: "I shouldn't have agreed to you, Butcher. What should we do now?"

"Hey, brother, calm down!"

Butcher tried his best to keep his tone flat, not to stimulate his emotions: "It's not that serious; didn't we all run out? No problem, believe me!"

"I believe your MLGB! I fuck your whole family, Butcher!"

MM was still furious, grabbing Butcher by the collar, the saliva from his roaring spraying onto his face: "That woman saw our faces; soon Vought International will find us!"

"No, you're wrong, MM."

Butcher wiped the saliva off his face and said calmly: "Vought International won't discover this, because I bet that bitch doesn't dare to tell Vought about this."

"Why?"

MM's brow furrowed, but he was still suspicious.

"Compound V is Vought's top secret."

Butcher pried open MM's fingers and calmly tidied his messy collar: "Her Compound V didn't come by very bright means. Remember? She is A-Train's secret girlfriend. Those compounds must have been stolen by A-Train and handed to her for safekeeping. So do you think she will tell Vought?"

Looking at MM, whose emotions were gradually calming down, Butcher smiled: "No, she won't tell Vought, otherwise I guarantee she will die faster than us!"

This was why he wasn't afraid of being seen.

Compound V, this kind of thing, didn't come by very clear means in the first place; everyone's ass wasn't clean.

If this matter were brought to the surface, how would Popclaw explain to Vought where her Compound V came from?

Some things didn't weigh four taels on the scale, but on the scale, even a thousand catties couldn't hold them down. That was the simple truth.

"What about A-Train?" MM's brow furrowed, still worried: "Having lost Compound V, A-Train will definitely track us down. What should we do then?"

"This matter, I will find a way to solve."

Although he said he would solve it, Butcher had no bottom in his heart, but if he dared to say so, what awaited him would definitely be MM's iron fist.

After a few seconds, he added another sentence: "By the way, during this time, you guys had better let your families hide, until this matter is solved."

"What about you?"

MM and Frenchie gritted their teeth, staring at this shameful bastard.

He kept saying there was no problem, but turned around and let them take their families to hide. They shouldn't have agreed to this bastard in the first place!

"I'm going to find someone to help solve this matter."

Butcher left a sentence, then patted Hughie, who was driving: "Stop, I'm getting off."

"Butcher, you'd better be able to solve this matter." MM gritted his teeth in anger, staring at him: "Otherwise I swear, I will use a steel pipe to XB your ass!"

But Butcher ducked into the alley and had already disappeared.

MM's anger hadn't subsided, looking at Hughie, who was dazed, and the more he looked, the more he felt uncomfortable: "Drive, fuck, you idiot, do you want us to be chased?"

Alvin drove to the location on the text message; it was a factory building that had been abandoned for a long time.

Such a place would indeed not attract attention, and very few people would come, making it the most suitable place for a transaction.

Touching the "deflection field generator" in his bosom, and confirming it was in an activated state, Alvin felt relieved and walked into the old factory building with big strides.

Butcher sat on the steps of the factory building, trying to control his emotions. In his eyes, there was both a trace of excitement and a touch of coldness.

"Stop, just stand there, don't move!" The moment he saw Alvin, Butcher immediately shouted to stop him.

"Fine, I'll stand here."

Alvin stood calmly at the entrance of the factory, about fifty meters away from Butcher.

"The Compound V you want is here." Butcher opened the medicine box, inside which lay six blue reagents quietly: "Now, it's your turn. Tell me where Becca is!"

"I need to check it, Mr. Butcher."

Alvin chuckled and said: "Only after confirming it is Compound V can I tell you the news of your wife, isn't that right?"

Butcher hesitated for half a second, took out a reagent from the medicine box, and carefully rolled it over.

"Mutual trust is a good start." Once the reagent rolled to his feet, Alvin smiled, bent down, picked it up, and examined it for half a second.

It looked very much like the one in the plot; the sea-blue liquid flowed within the reagent tube wall, as if emitting an invisible charm.

【Detected item: Compound V (Temporary)】

【Genetic engineering product, can change human inherited gene sequence, inducing superpowers, but after dilution, it only lasts 24 hours】

【Can provide energy: 0 units】

"Can you confirm it now?" Butcher asked nervously.

"No, it's still a bit off."

Alvin pressed the bottom of the reagent, and the syringe popped out from the other end.

Under Butcher's horrified gaze, he smiled and stuck the syringe directly into his skin, and the liquid inside was squeezed by the air, flowing into his body.

"Oh, no, you dog-raising bitch!"

Butcher's face was full of horror, wanting to stop it but it was too late.

Almost without thinking, he decisively learned from Alvin, took out a reagent from the medicine box, and pressed to pop out the syringe.

But, just as Butcher was about to inject himself, he suddenly felt an invisible force forcibly stopping his movement!

Immediately, the temperature inside the entire factory building seemed to drop to freezing point.

The ground of the factory, and even the abandoned facilities, were covered with a thin layer of frost, and cold wails seemed to echo in the atmosphere, making people shudder!

Butcher's fingers gripping the syringe were pried open by an invisible force!

And he, completely unable to stop it, could only watch helplessly as the syringe floated slowly toward Alvin.

Around Alvin, one could even vaguely see cold, dark blue flames flickering, and dazzling electric light blooming from the void from time to time!

"Mr. Butcher, I said... there was no need to be so anxious."

Alvin's deep brown pupils seemed to reflect brilliant colors, and he reached out to catch the reagent lightly: "I'm not a bad person, and I won't break my promise. I did this just to test the authenticity of 'Compound V.' I think you should be able to understand, right?" ===== CHAPTER 12 =====
