A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Inside the church, the fourth movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, also known as the Ode to Joy, played melodiously.

It is a classic that is widely sung by people all over the world.

The light and cheerful music was soothing, but it couldn't change the heavy and oppressive atmosphere inside the church. A few yakuza members sat sparsely on the church chairs, silently bowing their heads.

The kind of scene where the eldest son beats his son is not something they can stop and watch.

In the center of the church, Tarasov, who had finally managed to stand up, was slapped to the ground again by Vigo. Looking at his son, who still had a resentful expression, Vigo felt utterly exhausted.

"Boss, what do we do now?" a middle-aged white man asked. He was Vigo's accountant and controlled the finances of the Vigo Group.

“We need to be prepared for both possibilities.” Vigo took a deep breath and said, “First: immediately find out the identities and family situations of those two people, set up surveillance, and be ready to arrest them at any time.”

"Then I brought gifts and negotiated with them, using both threats and inducements to force them to give up holding my son accountable."

“Okay, Vigo,” the middle-aged accountant said.

In the shadows, Cao Gui narrowed his eyes slightly, his calm gaze turning murderous.

Originally, he was thinking of sparing Vigo's life because of his bad luck, since Theon had also been beaten up by Gwen, and his crime didn't warrant death.

but now……

He's courting death!

“Kiril.” Vigo called over one of his bodyguards:

"Pass the word down, tell people to be on high alert and prepare for evacuation. Also, take this piece of trash with you, and don't let me see him again."

"Yes!"

The bodyguard named Kirill picked up Theon and dragged him outside.

In the dim shadows, Cao Gui silently watched the bodyguard named Kirill.

This guy is quite capable. Cao Gui remembers that in the original story, this guy caused John Wick a lot of trouble, thwarting Wick's pursuit twice and saving Stinky and Vigo respectively.

The last time, he even rammed into Vick with his car and captured him alive. It was only because Vigo talked too much nonsense and Vick had outside help that the infamous Night Demon was killed by this guy.

"what?"

Kirill suddenly froze. His battlefield instincts told him that someone was watching him, and the source was in the shadows of a corner.

"Shit..."

Kirill jolted, instinctively releasing the stinky man and drawing his gun.

boom!

A gunshot rang out, and a bullet pierced his right shoulder, leaving his right hand hanging limply and rendered useless instantly.

"Damn it, there's an enemy!"

"In that corner!"

"Kill him!"

"OMG Fuck!"

Vigo's yakuza men were startled and immediately stood up and drew their guns.

However, these yakuza members were still too slow.

Bang bang bang bang!

A series of gunshots rang out, flashes of gun muzzle flashes, and in an instant, the heads of six yakuza members exploded.

In an instant, only four people remained in the entire church: Vigo, the middle-aged accountant, the stinky man, and Kirill.

"Excuse me, all four of you, you are now surrounded."

Cao Gui slowly emerged from the shadows, a emotionless electronic female voice ringing out as she held a revolver with an ivory handle.

"Ahhh... Daddy, save me, save me..." The stinky Theon kicked his legs frantically, trying to move backward.

"Surround us? Are you sure?" Vigo remained expressionless, showing no fear whatsoever.

"There's a team of 20 bodyguards outside the door. As soon as the gunshot rang out, they started moving. Do you think you can leave alive?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kirill behind him slowly stood up, holding a Sai Glock 19 pistol in his left hand.

Its most distinctive feature is that the barrel is plated with titanium nitride, giving it a luxurious gold color.

In addition, the sleeve has been improved, increasing the heat dissipation area and making the sleeve easier to load.

Cao Gui raised an eyebrow. Very good, another "married woman" worth collecting!

Cao Gui lightly touched the ground with his feet and spun around, instantly entering bullet time mode, and suddenly swung his right arm.

Boom!

Two .45 caliber bullets were fired in succession, and at the same time, Kirill pulled his trigger and fired a 9mm bullet at Cao Gui.

However, in bullet time mode, Cao Gui's two bullets shot out in an arc, one of which struck Kirill's bullet from the side and shattered it.

The remaining shot hit Kirill in the neck, killing him instantly.

Just as Cao Gui was dealing with Kirill, a series of footsteps sounded outside the door.

As Vigo said, his men arrived to provide support.

"You're dead! Whether you're a man or a woman, you're dead tonight!" Vigo said coldly. He had killed his most trusted general right in front of him, and Vigo would never let this grudge go.

"Ah……"

A disdainful voice came from under the helmet. Under Vigo's horrified gaze, Cao Gui took two steps back, then reached into his crotch and pulled out an enormous... 120mm man-portable rocket!

Made by a rabbit suffering from severe under-firepower phobia, it's nothing special, except for its great power!

“Fuck you…” Vigo muttered to himself, his face blank.

Whoosh—Boom!

White smoke billowed out, followed by a huge fireball exploding at the church entrance.

With a deafening crash, the 20 people outside the door were instantly torn to pieces, reduced to mangled limbs, and the aroma of barbecued meat mingled with the blood and gore that filled the church.

The middle-aged accountant turned pale and bent over to vomit.

"Who...who are you...?"

boom!

Brain matter splattered everywhere, and Vigo was shot in the head. The yakuza boss didn't even know how he died.

Cao Gui turned his gun around, pointed it at the terrified old man, and pulled the trigger, sending him to heaven to meet his father.

Cao once said, "If you want to wipe out his whole family, then wipe out his whole family."

"Take me to the basement."

Cao Gui pressed the muzzle of his gun against the middle-aged accountant's forehead, and the scorching hot barrel instantly made him scream.

"Okay...I'll take you downstairs right away...Ah! It's hot..."

With a bang, Cao Gui fired another shot into his leg, then picked up the scattered Sai Glock 19 and carried him towards the basement.

……

A flash of bright silver streaked across the sky as Tony Stark, clad in his Iron Man armor, flew through the air.

"Haha, Jarvis, I was right, wasn't I? You have to learn to run before you can walk."

Inside the visor, Tony Stark laughed heartily. He had really done it; he had flown from Los Angeles to New York in just three hours.

If he hadn't deliberately followed the flight path to avoid attracting air traffic control's attention, he would have arrived in New York much faster.

“Sir, you are quite right,” Jarvis’s gentle voice rang out.

"Sir, we should arrive at your Long Island villa in about ten minutes. I have already programmed the automatic disarming procedure for you."

Suddenly, a burst of firelight appeared in New York below. Tony was startled and levitated in the air, bracing himself with both hands.

Jarvis?

"Sir, there are very few surveillance cameras around there, only three, and they have all been destroyed."

"Pull up the satellite imagery and calculate the energy of that explosion."

"Yes."

Soon after, thanks to Jarvis's powerful computing capabilities, feedback was received regarding the explosion.

"A high-powered military weapon...?" Tony looked surprised. "Someone in New York is using something like this... Let's go down and take a look."

"Sir, the armor has not been combat tested..."

"Jarvis, remember your father's words: you must learn to run before you can walk!"

Tony Stark ignored Jarvis's words and swooped down towards the Little Russian Orthodox Church.

Chapter 121 God's Exclusive: Hellish Elysium Falls

Inside the church's basement, there were large amounts of US dollar bills, securities, and a thick ledger, as well as rows of gold coins from the Continental Hotel.

Cao Gui didn't stand on ceremony with them. Except for the securities, he put everything into his [system inventory]. Of course, before that, Cao Gui had already killed the middle-aged accountant.

Hey~

[The host has eliminated the Extreme Path of the High Table Tarasov, completing one 'Eliminate Evil' mission. Reward: 10000 Merit Points, 5000 Experience Points.]

Cao Gui ignored the prompts in his mind and instead flipped through the ledger in his hand. Besides a large number of money-for-power transactions, two names stood out: Obadiah Stein and Eric Sykes, the president of a biotechnology company.

Obadiah Stane, needless to say, is Stark's bald uncle, but this Eric Sykes... he sounds familiar, but I just can't remember who he is.

Cao Gui was certain that he was the villain in a movie he had seen, but he couldn't remember which movie it was.

Just as Cao Gui was racking his brains, a whooshing sound swept across the sky, followed by a "thud," which sounded like metal hitting the ground.

Cao Gui's heart sank slightly; someone was coming!

……

"Damn it," Tony Stark couldn't help but curse.
