A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

"Save...save me..." the demonic woman cried weakly, supporting herself on the ground. She was calling out to Cao Gui, the only one here who could save her.

Cao Gui flicked his finger, and a small stone flew out, hitting the locomotive's hip bone.

With a clang, the locomotive swayed, the steel bar in its hand fell to the ground, and a fierce look flashed across the woman's face. She pounced, picked up the broken blade, and swung it out with a backhand.

puff!

"Ah—! My leg! My leg!" The locomotive collapsed to the ground, clutching its thigh and wailing.

The woman's slash had cleaved open most of his thigh muscles, revealing his pale thigh, from which blood flowed uncontrollably.

"You bastard!" The woman with the claws stood in front of the locomotive, cursing through gritted teeth, then suddenly raised her foot and stomped down hard.

Click!

The locomotive's thigh bone snapped instantly, the broken bone piercing through the muscle and skin, exposing it.

"Ah—! Sang Bichi! How dare you do this!?"

Click!

With another sharp crack, the locomotive's other leg was broken by the woman's stomping, and blood once again stained a large patch of dust red.

"Ah! Waaaaah—, it hurts so much, it hurts so much..." The locomotive no longer had the strength to curse. The pain of his broken leg made him cry out. Tears streamed from his only remaining eye, and he kept banging his head against the ground in an attempt to alleviate the pain.

Hey~

[The host defeated A-Train, a member of the Seven Heroes, completing a "Eliminate Evil" mission. Contribution rate: 50%. Reward: 1 Merit Points, 5 Experience Points.]

Hearing the notification in his mind, Cao Gui knew it was almost time. This person was finished. His abilities all came from his two legs, and now that his legs were gone, he was completely useless.

"You damn bitch! I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you! Waaaaah—!"

The woman with the claws suddenly fell into an eerie silence. Without saying a word, she raised her foot and stomped on the train engine's two arms again, then sat down cross-legged next to the train engine.

"Baby, I won't let you die. I'll take care of you until you grow old and die. I'll always be with you." The woman with the devilish claws gently stroked the train's face and smiled inexplicably. Her smile was beautiful and happy.

Cao Gui's lips twitched, and he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. As expected of a woman, when she gets ruthless, men are no match for her.

Cao Gui lightly touched the ground and flew away. What happened next was none of his business. The rest was all about the Claw Woman and the Train Engine... No, this whole thing had nothing to do with him from beginning to end.

I am still the same handsome young man I used to be, without the slightest change.

"Honey, how about I introduce you to a friend tonight? He's in our room, his name is Shockwave... It's okay, even if I don't know him, I can get to know him..."

Behind Cao Gui, the woman with the devilish claws chuckled softly, her tone now tinged with a hint of allure.

……

Inside his Brooklyn apartment, Cao Gui was in a good mood. He sat down in front of the TV with a bottle of Fat Boy soda in hand. According to the message from Xingguang's phone, Xingguang was still at the competition venue. Cao Gui was very interested in hearing that she had changed into a new outfit.

"Now for a news report." On television, the news anchor said with a solemn expression and a heavy tone:

"Just ten minutes ago, Flight 137 from Paris to Chicago was hijacked and crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, killing all 123 passengers and crew members on board."

Cao Gui's face instantly darkened. What was going on?

"It is understood that superheroes Homelander and Queen Maeve arrived at the scene immediately after the incident, but..."

"Let us observe a moment of silence for the victims..."

Cao Gui's eyes flashed. The Homelanders hadn't been able to save the plane? That's impossible!

Is there some hidden story behind this?

Chapter 344 God Bless Us (Fourth Update)

Long Island.

This is an island running northeast to southwest. Its southwestern end is a famous residential area in New York, while its northeastern end faces the Atlantic Ocean. Across the Atlantic, the European continent is right across the water.

Wow~

The waves crashed against the rocks on the shore, making pleasant sounds, but at this moment, the sea was covered with a lot of debris.

A large number of unused life jackets, various papers, floating suitcases, aircraft metal debris, and even several landing gears.

Maeve stood on the beach, staring blankly at a charred Barbie doll on the shore. It should have belonged to some passenger, some child, but... she was dead now...

Maeve's eyes reddened as she thought of the desperate cries from the plane...

“God…” Maeve took a deep breath, slowly closed her eyes, clenched her teeth, and trembled slightly.

The clicking of camera shutters rang out continuously, and flashes went off one after another.

Surrounded by numerous cameras, reporters were covering the event. The man stood expressionless and silent, exuding an air of aloofness.

The reporters were very perceptive and didn't dare disturb the two when they were in a bad mood. In their eyes, the two superheroes were heartbroken because of their mistakes.

"The wreckage began to wash ashore, and experts speculate that all passengers and crew members on board may have perished..."

“They did have a chance to survive.” Homelander’s eyes flickered, no longer as dazed as before, and he spoke.

The reporters' eyes lit up when Mr. Homeland interrupted, indicating that an interview could proceed!

At this thought, a large number of cameras and seven or eight reporters rushed forward, crowding in front of the man and placing their microphones over him.

"Homelander, what are your thoughts on this?"

“I said, they weren’t without a chance of survival,” Homelander said with a sorrowful expression and a heavy tone.

"We arrived three minutes after the plane crashed, why?"

"Because we are not part of the command system! Because we cannot contact the Ministry of Defense!"

"If NORAD could notify us the moment the hijackers appeared, we could save them immediately and save these 123 lives!"

"Among them are elderly people, children, men, women... Excuse me... Please stop for a moment."

Tears welled up in the eyes of the man from the motherland, and he raised his hands to try to cover his face so that the reporters and cameras would not see his tears.

Maeve's eye twitched slightly, her eyes narrowed, and a cold glint flashed in them. That bastard...

"But if we can get into the Department of Defense and receive intelligence from the military command system, this kind of thing will never happen again!"

"This is my promise to everyone! Absolutely not!" Homelander raised his finger, speaking with righteous indignation and unwavering resolve.

Inside the Vought Corporation, Madeline slowly smiled. She roughly understood Homelander's thoughts; this was what he meant by "getting into the Department of Defense through your own means."

"What a good child..."

Madeline's face lit up with a smile. Things weren't as complicated as she had thought, and perhaps Walter's performance could soar once again.

As for the 123 lives... Madeline didn't care.

“Is that right, Maeve?” Homelander asked Maeve behind him.

A flash of anger crossed Maeve's eyes, but she took a deep breath and suppressed it. With her strength, she had no way to deal with Homelander.

"Meeve?"

Seeing that she didn't react, Homelander asked again.

“…Yes!” Maeve said slowly.

"God bless America, God bless us." Homelander waved and offered his blessing.

In front of the television, Cao Gui's face was gloomy. Having witnessed the two scoundrels, the Invisible Man and the Train Head, Cao Gui was no longer convinced that there were any normal people in the group of seven.

Something's fishy about this; we have to investigate!

but……

"I hate water... I hate seawater even more..." Cao Gui rubbed his temples and said dejectedly.

……

Inside the Water Tower, Madeline held the chubby pink baby, a happy smile on her face. She had received so much bad news these past few days, and Homelander's news felt like it was specially prepared for her. It was wonderful.

However, she soon stopped laughing.

The next day, the woman held a press conference to announce her relationship with the train engine, causing a huge stir and shocking the entire United States.

However, before their shock could subside, the "Claw Woman" dropped a second bombshell: the train engine was ruined; not only were its limbs disabled, but it had also lost its voice.

In short, the locomotive became a body that could only move its eyes and brain.

In response, Cao Gui couldn't help but sigh that this woman was truly ruthless. Fortunately, he hadn't offended her before... No, the one who offended her was the masked man. What did that have to do with him, Cao Gui?

Poor locomotive... his forehead must be green!

Madeline took this matter very seriously, and the Seven visited A-Train together, offering him their best gifts and blessings.

Walter publicly stated that Locomotive was injured and had to retire while rescuing people, which was a good outcome. At the same time, Monster Girl received a compensation payment as an employee subsidy.

The Claw Woman didn't hide anything and told Homelander and Madeline everything she knew.

Unfortunately, it was all for naught. Throughout the entire process, Cao Gui never showed an inch of skin, never uttered a single word of his own, and didn't even reveal his eyes.

A day later, Vought International announced that A-Train was leaving the Seven and that a brand new superhero, Storm, would take his place.

As for the Invisible Man... Walter still needs his popularity and cannot replace him for the time being.

Hughie and Butcher released the recording to the media, and Deep was despised by everyone. All his work within the Seven was canceled, and the popular star had to be blacklisted... Blacklisting was not an option; if he were to go out again, he would probably be drowned in people's spittle.

As for why not abandon him... Madeline can't find a replacement for the time being. Although Deep Sea has a bad reputation, he still has commercial value and his combat ability is not bad. Keeping him in the company as a security guard is not bad.

Deep Sea was naturally unwilling to live a life somewhat akin to imprisonment, but unfortunately, his objections were ineffective.

However, after numerous protests, Madeline reluctantly agreed that he could visit the aquarium, where he was an ambassador and where many of his "friends" happened to be.

That evening, Shenhai was granted permission to go out again. He was going to talk to his good friend; this was one of the few times he had free time.

"Hey, you jerk, going to find your octopus girlfriend again?" Starlight saw Deep Sea hopping towards the stairs and called out with a sneer. This pervert is a real pervert, actually bringing an octopus back to Walter and claiming that she is his girlfriend.

"Fuck!" Deep Sea gave Starlight the middle finger in the elevator and walked away without looking back.

On the other side, Cao Gui slowly took off his headphones; he wanted to talk to Shen Hai about something.
