A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

The captain steered the plane around, deviating from the planned route, and flew towards the island.

Inside the room, Beth woke up yawning. Cao Gui, feeling helpless, told her what had happened.

Hearing this, Beth sighed helplessly, "It looks like the plane will be delayed."

About half an hour later, the plane descended and began its descent, eventually coming to rest on a relatively flat ice field.

Cao Gui and Beth put on their warm clothes, opened the hatch, and went outside.

"hey-hey--!"

"Here! Here!!"

In the distance, a man wearing a red down jacket, dragging a sled behind him, was waving and calling for help desperately. Even from a distance, Cao Gui could hear the excitement and agitation in his voice.

Cao Gui took out his skis, used his ski poles to slide down, and quickly skied towards the person. Before long, a middle-aged white man's face appeared in Cao Gui's sight.

Cao Gui raised an eyebrow. "Uncle Ba?"

"Oh God, thank God, thank you all."

However, that man didn't have any of Uncle Ba's demeanor. When he saw Cao Gui coming over, tears immediately welled up in his eyes. He hurriedly ran to Cao Gui, grabbed Cao Gui's hand, and shook it repeatedly.

“Sir, thank you so much… I’ve been here for months… God, thank goodness you’re all alright…”

The man spoke incoherently, his thick beard stained with tears and snowflakes.

Judging from the looks of it, it shouldn't be Uncle Ba, otherwise Cao Gui would have shot him dead on the spot.

"Hurry up and get on the plane!" Cao Gui said.

“Yes, sir,” Mads Mikkelsen said, then pointed to the sled: “There is one more person here, please be sure to take him with you.”

"Okay, let's go quickly."

Cao Gui picked the man up from the sled, then carried him on his back, skiing back to the plane. Behind him, Uncle Ba, his face tense, kept up, only slightly slower than Cao Gui.

Back on the plane, the captain looked at the ground ahead and pointed to a small patch of ice, saying, "Sir, there's a raised area ahead. If possible, we should clear it."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Ba quickly said, "I'll go, I'm not injured."

Cao Gui thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you and get the tools."

Uncle Ba nodded, picked up two pairs of skis, and followed Cao Gui off the plane again.

There were no shovels or spades on the plane, so we had to use snow pry boards as tools.

However, when Uncle Ba followed Cao Gui to dig open the ice block, they discovered that it was not an ice block at all, but a wooden figure, and it was a woman.

“This… looks like a figurehead…” Mads Mikkelsen scratched his head, looking somewhat puzzled.

"Figurehead?" Cao Gui frowned.

Two more chapters to go, it'll be a little late~

Chapter 93 Ip Man

Upon noticing something, Cao Gui's first thought was Captain America and the Tesseract, after all, this was Marvel, and this was the Arctic.

But then a wooden figurehead appeared... Could it be Megatron?

That shouldn't be the case. If it were Megatron, he should be at Hoover Dam right now.

Cao Gui and Uncle Ba exchanged a glance and continued digging. Before long, they reached the deck of the ship and dug along the deck until they entered the cabin.

Inside the cabin, a chilling atmosphere prevailed, with everything covered in a layer of frost. In the crew quarters, dozens of hammocks hung, each holding a emaciated, frozen corpse. The extreme low temperature had tightened their skin, exposing their upper and lower jaws, making them look extremely gruesome.

"Why... why are the crew still sleeping in hammocks when the ship has wrecked?" Uncle Mads asked, his face full of confusion.

"I don't know." Cao Gui shrugged, opened the cargo hold, went inside, and saw barrels of gunpowder.

Uncle Mads flipped his face over and confirmed that it was all black powder. Cao Gui then discovered a corpse wearing a captain's hat, with a small wooden bucket in its arms.

Cao Gui frowned. The captain wasn't in the captain's cabin. What was he doing in the cargo yard? And why was he carrying a wooden barrel?

Upon opening the wooden barrel, it was found to contain black powder, as expected. However, after pouring it all out, a small box was discovered hidden inside the gunpowder.

It depicts several human figures and an eagle poised for flight, showcasing a distinctly American style.

"What is this?" Uncle Mads asked, leaning closer in.

Cao Gui opened the box and saw a pipe made of meerschaum. It looked beautiful, but it was useless.

"It was just a pipe after all." Uncle Mads shrugged.

"This should be a logistics transport ship." Cao Gui tossed his pipe, stuffed it into his arms, and said, "Let's go, there's nothing more to see."

The figurehead cannot be moved; the only options are to chop it off with a knife or have the captain find a way to adjust the direction.

The two returned to the plane, and the captain, upon hearing this, adjusted the direction. Although it was a bit troublesome, and the other directions were not as smooth as the road in front of them, this was the only way.

Half an hour later, the plane took off safely again, and Cao Gui and the others returned to their original route and flew to Los Angeles.

Inside the plane, Mads Mikkelsen briefly explained his situation. He said his name was Ofgold, a Finnish researcher, and that the woman had come to rescue him after receiving his distress signal.

But she was unlucky and encountered a storm. The plane crashed, her husband died, she was seriously injured, and the rescuer became the one being rescued.

Fortunately, she was rescued by Cao Gui and the others. Beth, however, looked unhappy. She had finally had some alone time with her, but now two more people were bothering her, which made her uncomfortable.

Cao Gui took out emergency medicine and treated the woman's injuries to ensure she wouldn't die before reaching the hospital.

The woman's injuries included not only external wounds but also internal organ damage. Cao Gui was powerless to help and could only keep her alive for the time being.

After confirming that the person with Mads Mikkelsen's face was not Mads Mikkelsen, Cao Gui stopped paying attention and took Beth back to sleep.

This woman caused me to lose my succubus, so I must turn her into a succubus, otherwise I cannot make up for my loss. Of course, before that, I need to negotiate a small business deal worth several billion. Once it's finalized, I'll make her transform.

Ten hours later,

After the plane landed, Cao Gui took the two to the hospital and notified the relevant personnel. That was the end of the matter. After all, Cao Gui wasn't a nanny, and he had already done more than enough to help.

"Let's go home, Beth." In the hospital, Cao Gui took Beth's hand.

"Whose house are we going to?" Beth asked with a smile.

"Your family," Cao Guitian shamelessly retorted, "Who told you to be a rich woman and support me!"

"Hahaha..." Beth covered her mouth and chuckled.

Just then, a tall and beautiful woman walked over from the opposite side. Cao Gui was taken aback when he saw her. The face was familiar; she was an acquaintance, Firefox from the Brotherhood.

But Firefox seemed not to recognize Cao Gui. Noticing Cao Gui's gaze, it simply smiled slightly, then turned and left, its figure shimmering with medicinal properties.

Cao Gui stroked his chin. Fire Fox definitely wouldn't do that, so it must be someone else. Who could it be?

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her ear. Beth grabbed Cao Gui's ear, her face contorted with anger. How dare he look at another woman in front of her after only one day? What would he do in the future?

No, Cao Gui needs to suffer!

Without saying a word, he pulled Cao Gui back to his own villa.

……

Three days later, at Cao Gui's small villa.

Ring ring~

My phone kept ringing by the bathtub.

"Hmm~?"

With a snap, Cao Gui struggled out of the solidified medicinal bath liquid, took the phone and listened; it was Beth.

"Cao, you haven't spent a whole day with me." Beth sounded aggrieved on the phone. Could it be that she already hates me after only a few days?

Cao Gui rolled his eyes. "Don't I have to cultivate? But..."

Cao Gui glanced at the time, pondered for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Then you can name a place, and I'll go with you today."

“Okay, okay,” Beth quickly replied.

Half an hour later, Becky and Cao Gui arrived in front of a huge casino.

Looking at the casino, Cao Gui frowned. Beth asked doubtfully, "Cao, don't you like it here?"

"No, I just don't like all casinos," Cao Gui said helplessly. As a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, he has always been sworn enemies of gambling and drugs!

"Let's go somewhere else then." Beth turned the steering wheel, but Cao Gui stopped her:

"No need, darling, let's go inside. I'll play with you."

Cao Gui decided to swallow his pride and simply not touch her. It was indeed his fault for ignoring Beth for a day.

“Okay, let’s go in.” The two walked hand in hand into the casino.

To be honest, this was Cao Gui's first time in a place like this, but before he could see much, Beth pulled him to the edge of the casino's pool.

"what?"

Beth shrugged. "If you don't like casinos, then let's go to the casino's swimming pool."

"Don't we have a swimming pool at home? Why come to a place with so many people?" Cao Gui couldn't help but complain.

Beth said helplessly, "I originally wanted to go to the amusement park, but I heard that someone was hanged on the Ferris wheel at a recent amusement park, so I canceled the plan."

"Okay." Cao Gui nodded and found a place to change into his swimsuit.

Beth kissed Cao Gui on the cheek: "I'm going to buy something."

"Walk slowly, don't rush," Cao Gui instructed, then stretched a bit by the pool, his beautiful and muscular physique immediately attracting a lot of attention.

Moderate exercise attracts the opposite sex, while excessive exercise attracts the same sex. Cao Gui's muscles, though not exaggerated, are extremely powerful, and it can be said that both the same sex and the opposite sex like them.

Cao Gui sat down on a chair by the pool to sunbathe and ordered a cold drink from a nearby stall.

At this moment, an elderly man with white hair and a receding hairline walked over, carefully examined Cao Gui, and then slowly said, "Young man, you have a good physique."

"Thank you." Cao Gui took a sip of his cold drink, not paying attention to his words. However, the other party's next words made him spit it out.

"Interested? Come to my room and take a look. I have something you might like there."

"Hahaha..." Beth, who had just walked over, burst into laughter upon hearing this.
