A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Cao Gui, on the other hand, looked pale and had dark circles under his eyes, appearing extremely haggard.

The messy sheets, the scattered clothes... none of that was there!

Nothing happened last night!

Cao Gui gritted his teeth. This girl had indeed come to sleep with him, but it was just a casual sleep, not the kind of sleep he had imagined!

Last night, as soon as Gwen walked in the door, she rolled up in the blankets, fell asleep immediately, and even started snoring. She was sleeping like a log.

So Gwen was genuinely scared, but this put Cao Gui in a difficult position.

Cao Gui couldn't do anything to Gwen while she was fast asleep, so he could only stare blankly, unable to fall asleep.

Even more outrageous, Gwen used him as a body pillow.

With no other option, Cao Gui stayed up all night, leaving him looking completely haggard.

Supporting the little upturned bottom in his hands, Cao Gui adjusted to a better position, preparing to take a nap. However, when he turned his head, he saw Gwen staring at him with her face flushed red.

"What's wrong?" Cao Gui asked, puzzled.

"You bastard, where are you putting your hands?" Gwen gritted her teeth. "Take them away, I want to go back."

"No, it's so comfortable here," Cao Gui said with a grin.

Gwen was immediately enraged and bit Cao Gui's neck.

"Ouch, that hurts! Don't bite!" Cao Gui patted her little bottom twice.

"Ah! Asshole!"

Enraged, Gwen opened her mouth and bit down again.

"..."

After some playful banter, the two finally stopped, panting.

"Cao, seriously, I have to go back, or they'll wake up!" Gwen's voice was pleading.

"Alright then..." Hearing this, Cao Gui couldn't insist on keeping Gwen any longer, so he let the girl off the hook for the time being: "But Gwen, before you leave, shouldn't there be a ceremony?"

"What?" Gwen blushed, feeling incredibly shy, but still looked up at Cao Gui.

"Of course, it's about what we didn't finish last time." Cao Gui chuckled, then leaned down and gently kissed him.

Gwen closed her eyes slightly, silently enduring.

Slightly cool, yet warm, her trembling lips revealed that the girl's heart was not at peace.

Cao Gui dared not be greedy and could only launch a gentle offensive, afraid of leaving a bad impression on the girl.

After a while, their lips parted, and Gwen lay on Cao Gui, breathing softly. That last thrust had been quite a challenge to Gwen's lung capacity.

After a while, he hurriedly got out of bed and prepared to return to the girl's room.

However, as soon as the door was opened, Beth and Lucy were standing in front of it, looking nervous.

"Cao Gui, Gwen is missing..."

Beth and Lucy: (?oo?)

Gwen: (ノ○Д○)ノ

Cao Gui: (//o/ω/o//)

Gwen was on the verge of tears, but she was still discovered.

After a moment, Cao Gui coughed lightly, breaking the deadlock: "Ahem, Lucy, Beth, come in. You two talk to Gwen first, I'll go find Harry."

As soon as she stepped out of the room, Gwen's exclamation came from behind her. It seems that Lucy and Beth are quite the gossips too.

Cao Gui knocked on Harry's door, changed his dressing, and then took him to his own room.

As soon as they returned, the three girls had become incredibly ladylike again, showing no trace of their previous madness.

"Ahem... Well, now that everyone's here, let's talk about whether to keep going or go back to New York?" Cao Gui started by asking the question.

After yesterday's events, what was supposed to be a happy trip has become incredibly dull, and my good mood has been completely ruined.

Therefore, a decision must be made as to whether to continue or go back.

Upon hearing this, the group's expressions turned serious, but they also hesitated. Just as Cao Gui had predicted, their mood for the trip was gone, the atmosphere was gone, and they themselves were unsure whether to continue.

“Harry, what do you say?” Cao Gui asked.

“Me?” Harry was taken aback, then said, “I want to continue. I’ve already spoken to my father, and it would be too embarrassing to turn back now.”

"And Cao, what about you? What do you think?" Lucy asked.

“Of course we’ll continue,” Cao Gui said. “I killed all three ogres, so what reason do I have to be afraid?”

Upon hearing this, the three girls were taken aback. Seeing that Cao Gui and Harry had decided to continue, they had no reason to object.

“In that case, let’s continue,” the three girls said.

However, despite this, the three girls did not set off immediately. Instead, they stayed in the motel and refused to go out. It seemed that they were not particularly fond of the forest.

Cao Gui didn't care about this. It was summer vacation anyway, so there was no rush. Besides, although Harry's injury wasn't serious, he still needed to rest.

They stayed in the motel for four days. On the fifth day, Cao Gui was pulled out of bed by several girls, who then took them into the city to buy a large amount of weapons and equipment.

I bought almost everything, including assault rifles, submachine guns, shotguns, and pistols.

Logically speaking, even if the gun laws in the United States are very lenient, it would not allow a few teenagers to buy so many weapons and equipment.

But Cao Gui is an FBI agent, not only an FBI agent, but also a second-generation snake. And Gwen is an NYPD officer. With both of them involved, the gun shop wouldn't refuse even if they had doubts.

As for the other three, Harry's family are high-tech capitalists, Beth's family are financial capitalists, and Lucy is even more remarkable, with her mother being a capitalist and her father being an NYPD officer.

Strictly speaking, having gained the approval of these two groups, Lucy has already begun to qualify for the position of Grand President; the only remaining question is how strong she is.

With these five people working together, there's really not much they can't do within the United States.

When the group returned to the motel and took stock of their belongings, Cao Gui was shocked to discover that these girls had actually bought so many guns.

Five M4s and five Beretta 92Fs – that's the basics, replenishing the weapons lost due to the mutated ogres.

In addition, there were 5 Winchester M897s, 5 MP5 submachine guns, and nearly a thousand rounds of ammunition. What's even more outrageous is that Lucy replaced all the rifles and submachine guns with FTR trigger units.

In the United States, civilian firearms are not allowed to have automatic fire capabilities; this is written into law, and violating it is illegal.

But where there's a will, there's a way. The American people, endlessly courting disaster, invented a series of gadgets to circumvent the law and achieve similar rapid-fire capabilities, such as bump stocks and double triggers.

FTR trigger units are one such example. The Chinese name for this type of trigger is forced reset trigger. Simply put, there is a mechanism in the trigger unit that can force the trigger to reset under the power of the flame gas without having to release the finger to reset it.

It is essentially a semi-automatic firing mechanism, but the trigger requires too little force and does not require manual reset. So although the rate of fire is increased, it is not a burst-fire function and cannot be considered illegal.

With their current firepower, suppressing a small SWAT team head-on is no problem for the five of them.

"Lucy, honestly, don't you think this is a bit too much?" Cao Gui said speechlessly.

“No, it’s perfect,” Lucy said. “Beth, Gwen, what do you think?”

"Lucy is right, just right."

Gwen chuckled, then hung four guns on herself, instantly transforming the soft and cute girl into a heroic figure. Cao Gui felt a surge of excitement and couldn't help but get a slight erection.

“Exactly,” Beth said. “Damn, when did you think this was exaggerated? Didn’t you have a lot of guns before?”

Cao Gui rolled his eyes, his mind filled with "Damn it!" but he didn't know where to begin.

“Alright, guys, let’s get going.” Harry clapped his hands. “Next destination: Lake Spring in Lincoln Forest, Illinois.”

Chapter 40 Not only single

"Buzz... News broadcast... Last night... 8 prisoners...buzz... escaped... Please be careful... be vigilant...buzz..."

As dusk fell, the car radio signal became poor again, producing intermittent sound.

Cao Gui drove his Ford Raptor 150 and turned onto a forest path, arriving at a small lake with a promotional sign for Spring Lake.

This is a small scenic area within Lincoln Forest Park. Not far from here, there are many underground caves, which form another scenic area.

There are two cars parked not far away; it seems their owners have already gone down into the cave.

When Harry said this was the destination, Cao Gui was startled, thinking this was the birthplace of the legendary Jason, the boy who killed a hundred men: Crystal Lake.

There was no other way; it's no wonder Cao Gui was so sensitive. It was because he reacted too slowly when he encountered the mutated cannibal last time, which almost caused casualties. Cao Gui had to be cautious.

However, after some investigation, it was found that Spring Lake was not originally called Crystal Lake, and indeed, it has never changed its name.

Unconvinced, Cao Gui consulted the FBI's database and asked a senior forest ranger nearby. Only after confirming that it wasn't Crystal Lake did he finally feel relieved.

Cao Gui drove the car to the lakeside and stopped. There was no rule against trampling on the grass here. The United States has a small population, and apart from some outdoor sports enthusiasts, there are not many people who like to come to forest parks. Sometimes, even if you beg others to trample on the grass, they may not come.

"Guys, our official outdoor camping trip has begun! Aren't you excited?" Cao Gui rubbed his hands together and laughed.

"..."

However, no one cheered or applauded. The effects of the mutated cannibal were still present, and the four of them still had a strange sense of awe towards the forest.

"Don't be like this, can't you be a little more energetic?" Cao Gui said helplessly.

Okay~~

The four of them dragged out their words and managed to give a weak reply.

Cao Gui rolled his eyes, then began to give instructions: "Lucy, Beth, you two go set up the grill and light the campfire."

"Gwen, you're in charge of getting the lights and other lighting equipment ready, and remember to get our signal relay equipment set up."

"Remember to pitch the tent after you're done."

"Harry, come on, let's go prepare the ingredients!"

Upon hearing this, the girls got busy and soon were working hard, temporarily suppressing the strange thoughts in their minds.

On the other side, Cao Gui called out and brought Little Green Demon to the lakeside. In fact, the ingredients didn't need much processing. They had brought a freezer with them, which had both a freezing compartment and a preservation compartment.

All the meats were neatly categorized and packaged. After simply unpacking, thawing, and marinating, they were ready to be grilled.

When they returned to the camp, the girls had already finished their work. A bright campfire was lit, and several portable light bulbs were turned on, dispelling the darkness of the camp. The signal repeater also restored the previously intermittent signal.

The grill glowed red from the charcoal fire, just waiting for Cao Gui and Harry to bring the ingredients to the grill and start the exam.

However, despite still being busy, each of the three girls carried a small and powerful MP5 submachine gun on their backs.
