A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Cao Gui's face was gloomy. He had always been very unhappy with Predators, creatures that wantonly took the lives of others. They were too arrogant!

These creatures have never respected humans, nor have they placed humans on an equal footing with them. They regard humans as livestock, and they regard Cao as livestock.

It's really annoying!

blah blah blah!

The Predator strode forward, his spear suddenly thrusting out, flashes of cold light exploding before Cao Gui, the spear tip aimed straight for Cao Gui's throat!

clang!

Cao Gui raised his sword and parried the spear tip, then lunged forward and slashed at the Predator's neck.

An inch longer means an inch stronger; an inch shorter means an inch more dangerous.

Cao Gui wanted to shorten the distance between the two and enhance the advantage of his weapon.

Clang!

However, the opponent was a powerful hunter who had been active in interstellar space for a long time. He had extensive combat experience and knew Cao Gui's thoughts perfectly, so he easily blocked Cao Gui's attack.

Cao Gui stared at the Predator mask, his eyes seemingly filled with extreme excitement. Cao Gui roared and brandished his longsword.

The sound of iron-blooded weapons clashing, like fangs clashing, rang out again, and at the same moment Cao Gui swung his sword, he also brandished his spear.

In the blink of an eye, the two clashed countless times. In the dimly lit underground parking lot, the silver-white light screen flickered, sparks flew, and the clanging sound of metal blades colliding was incessant.

Cao Gui's swordsmanship is derived from Zoro's, characterized by its powerful and sweeping strokes. Apart from its unglamorous name and relatively low skill level, it is almost identical to Zoro's.

However, the Predator is an alien creature with strength far exceeding that of ordinary Earthlings. In addition, the spear is made of some unknown material and is very tough, so Shigure could only barely cut into it.

Moreover, the seemingly burly and rugged Iron Warrior actually wielded a superb spear technique, leaving no room for error. While it appeared that Cao Gui was on the offensive, in reality, Cao Gui was running out of tricks, while his opponent remained completely at ease.

Clang!

Another clash ensued, with Cao Gui's longsword pressing down on the spear, and the Ironblood Spear held horizontally, as the two once again engaged in a contest of strength.

Cao Gui clenched his teeth, his jaw muscles bulging, and pressed the spear against the Predator's body little by little. The two-and-a-half-meter-tall Predator was gradually suppressed by Cao Gui.

However, this kind of struggle is not a solution. The Predator still has shoulder cannons available, and Cao Gui does not believe that anyone would still adhere to principles at the end of their life. He never puts his life on the shoulders of others.

With a flash of cold light in his eyes, Cao Gui twisted his wrist, changing the vertical slash into a horizontal cut, and Shi Yu sliced ​​along the spear towards the necks of the two Iron-Blooded Warriors.

however……

The rattling sound rang out again, and Tie Xue's excitement intensified. He twisted his body in a flash, instantly dodging Cao Gui's horizontal slash. At that moment, another spearhead was aimed at Cao Gui's left eye.

Clang!

The spear suddenly extended and pierced Cao Gui's eyes.

The situation reversed instantly; the Predator, as expected of a seasoned hunter, possessed extremely rich combat experience.

Chapter 58 S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Actions

Cao Gui suddenly tilted his head to the side, narrowly saving his eyes.

However, in battle, it is essential to keep your eyes and hands in sync, with neither leaving your eyes nor your hands leaving your eyes. Cao Gui tilted his head to the side in an attempt to dodge, which is a major taboo in combat!

Sure enough, the Predator suddenly raised his knee and kicked Cao Gui in the head.

Having lost the initiative and fallen into a passive position, Cao Gui could only pull back his arm and knife, protecting his head.

The speed was so fast that Cao Gui didn't even have time to use his paper drawing skills.

Bang!

A heavy whip kick struck Cao Gui's left arm. Cao Gui felt a sharp pain in his arm bone, then the world spun around him, and he was sent flying.

"Heh...ah..."

Cao Gui stood up from the ground with a trembling gait, his eyes bloodshot, and his left arm bulging inward, forming a strange arc.

It's a fracture!

Cold sweat broke out on Cao Gui's forehead; the intense pain nearly made him faint.

"Glalalala..."

The Predator didn't finish off Cao Gui, but stood there watching him adjust his condition.

Upon seeing this, Cao Gui immediately took out gauze and a splint from his [System Backpack], endured the excruciating pain, pressed his broken bones back into place, and then secured them.

"Grrrala... Earthling, are you done yet?" the Predator's unpleasant voice rang out.

Cao Gui took a deep breath, slowly grasped Shi Yu with both hands, stepped back with his right foot, lowered his body, and raised Shi Yu above his head.

"Grumble grumble... Haha..."

The Predator let out a strange laugh, pushed off with its feet, and charged forward with immense power, its spear thrusting forward, aiming straight for Cao Gui's head!

Cao Gui's gaze was gloomy. He remained unmoved by the Predator's charge, his eyes fixed on the Predator's swinging arms.

"One-Sword Style: Demon Slash!"

Cao Gui's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and with a cold shout, the blade light suddenly surged, dazzling and eye-catching, but equally deadly.

puff!

Fluorescent blood splattered, and a severed arm spun and fell to the ground.

"Aww—!"

The Predator clutched its severed right arm and howled in agony, fluorescent blood pooling on the ground.

Cao Gui breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, using skills was still the most satisfying.

Cao Gui did not finish off the Predator, but instead took out a sterile polyethylene bag and put the Predator's severed hand in.

The right arm is equipped with a self-destruct device. If defeated, the Predator will choose to detonate this device to take the enemy down with it. The power of this device is no less than that of a little boy.

"Ow—!"

Upon seeing this, the Predator suddenly turned and ran, sprinting towards an entrance in the underground parking lot.

Upon seeing this, Cao Gui's expression changed drastically, and he quickly followed.

Predators are creatures that place extreme importance on warrior honor; they are born to fight and die in defeat, and there is absolutely no concept of desertion in the face of battle.

But this Predator did just that, which is unusual and something must be going on. Cao Gui has to find out what's going on.

This Predator has already broken the rules once, and who knows if he will continue to do so? If he disregards everything and leads a large force to his home, then he'll be in big trouble!

Following the fluorescent blood on the ground, Cao Gui wandered through a maze of strange paths until he arrived at a room filled with various mysterious patterns.

Every corner here radiates a bright yellow light, and the overall style looks like something from another civilization, something that shouldn't exist on Earth.

Not far away, there was another wall with a dozen or so human skulls and vertebrae hanging on it, as well as skulls and vertebrae of various other creatures that I did not recognize.

This wall should be the wall of medals of this Predator, but these medals are cruelly excessive.

If I remember correctly, this should be his spaceship.

Cao Gui's eyes flickered. These iron-blooded warriors, who adhered to the code of conduct, were worthy of respect, but those who wantonly took the lives of others were not worthy of pity.

"Ow—!"

Suddenly, the Predator emerged from the darkness, wielding an unfamiliar dagger, and slashed at Cao Gui's head.

Cao Gui parried with his sword in one hand, then kicked out, sending the man tumbling. Cao Gui swung his longsword, a silver streak flashing, piercing through the Predator's mask and piercing his entire head.

Hey~

[The host has killed an alien predator, completing a "Protect the Territory and Protect the People" mission. Reward: 5000 Merit Points, 2500 Experience Points.]

Cao Gui breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he was stronger than this Predator, but he was too careless at the beginning, and it was his first time facing a spear, so he suffered a great loss.

This was the first time Cao Gui had suffered such a serious injury.

Just then, arcs of electricity flashed around him, and eight Predator warriors appeared beside Cao Gui, surrounding him.

These Predators remained silent, carrying the comrade Cao Gui had killed, then turned and left. The older Predator leading the group spoke up:

“Young strongman, I need to retrieve my warrior’s remains, and his protective gloves.”

Cao Gui raised an eyebrow, pulled out a plastic bag, returned the severed hand, but then deactivated the self-destruct device strapped to the Predator's wrist:

"This is my spoils of war, and I'm keeping it."

“No, young warrior,” the older Predator said, “this is our tribe’s technology, it cannot be passed on to outsiders, we must take it back.”

As he spoke, the other Predator warriors surrounded Cao Gui again, and this time, the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

"So that's how it is," Cao Gui suddenly realized. The Predator hadn't run away; it had come here to get the short sword and fight him, wanting to retrieve its gauntlets.

Why didn't he use the shoulder cannon? Was it because he was adhering to the code of honor for soldiers?

Cao Gui narrowed his eyes. He didn't want to pay it back, and killing these Predator warriors wasn't difficult, but he would need to exchange for character cards.

"..."

But after thinking it over, Cao Gui still sent out the self-destruct device, not wanting to waste his merit points.

The Predator accepted the protective gloves, then took a retractable spear from his back and handed it to Cao Gui before turning and leaving.

Cao Gui weighed the somewhat heavy weapon in his hand, put it away, and left.

……

midnight!

Inside the beef slaughterhouse near the vampire bar, a large group of people in heat-resistant suits were busy installing powder sprayers and laser pointers, while also carrying huge liquid nitrogen tanks on their backs.

"Is everything ready?" a Chinese woman in a S.H.I.E.L.D. uniform asked sharply.

This person is Melinda May, a Level 5 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and is known as "Iron Rider" within S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Sir, everything is ready."

"Let's hide."

Melinda gave the order: after years of investigation, S.H.I.E.L.D. had finally reconfirmed the presence of these invisible monsters, and the next step was to capture them.

If they could obtain the technology from this monster, it would be a huge boost to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s strength.

Melinda's expression was grave. This matter was far too important for S.H.I.E.L.D., and she had to do everything in her power to ensure the mission was accomplished.
