Chapter 350: Billy and the Others Dressed as Bandits
In the Living Room, Hughie and the others were already prepared and ready to go. They wore military combat uniforms scavenged from Mexico, with pistols tucked into their waistbands and dark assault rifles held in their hands. They also wore black balaclavas that only exposed their eyes, looking completely like bandits. However, in terms of demeanor, only Billy and Mother's Milk were closest to bandits.
"We agreed, no exposing our identities," Billy picked up the black balaclava from the coffee table and pulled it over his head.
"Can't we just go openly? We're already wanted criminals anyway, there's no need to wear this stuff," Soldier Boy was a bit reluctant. He was a Superhero after all, and dressing up as a bandit was something Soldier Boy couldn't quite accept.
"Wrong."
Billy pointed a finger at himself, then pointed at Soldier Boy's chest. "Out of everyone here, only you and I are wanted criminals. We might not care about exposing our true identities, but Mother's Milk and the others can't. Mother's Milk and the others finally got whitewashed, we can't let them go back to being 'black'."
"Also, if you keep complaining, give me the money for those call girls just now. It was a total of sixteen hundred and forty US dollars. Cash or card? A check is fine too, provided you have a bank account."
"Talking about money hurts feelings. It's just changing clothes, I'll change," After living extravagantly for almost a month and a half, Soldier Boy had long since squandered all the money Legend had given him. Now, let alone over a thousand US dollars, he couldn't even pull out a five-cent coin.
......
The scene shifts to Xia Shang. Golden Boy, engulfed in raging flames, expressionlessly tore through the steel plate and stood up from a pool of molten iron.
Compared to the terrified people around him, Xia Shang calmly took a sip of the cocktail in his cup. "Dean Shetty, you're going to have a headache now. The high temperature Golden Boy is emitting can even melt steel. I'm afraid Polarity won't be able to do much against him."
Indira's smile gradually faded. She said to Jordan Li in the crowd, "Jordan, control Golden Boy, tell him to stop causing trouble."
The male Jordan Li was significantly taller than his female form, like a standard basketball player. He nodded at Indira and then rushed towards Golden Boy. His speed was very fast, in Xia Shang's opinion, not inferior to Starlight. And his subsequent performance also surprised Xia Shang a little.
Just then, Jordan Li suddenly tackled Golden Boy down, then raised his right arm and smashed a punch heavily onto Golden Boy's face, as if the high temperature couldn't affect him for a moment.
"I've wanted to hit you for more than just a day or two." As the second-ranked person on the campus leaderboard, Jordan Li had long coveted Golden Boy's first-place position. Now that he finally had a chance to replace him, Jordan Li naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Unfortunately, he didn't stay strong for long. Golden Boy, hurt by the hits, angrily grabbed Jordan Li's arm and slammed him towards the Ground. With a loud bang, a large pit was immediately smashed into the floor.
"I'll help you."
The warm-hearted Marie Moreau ignored Emma Meyer's strange look, controlling the blood flowing from her palm, turning it into a whip several meters long, wrapping it around Golden Boy's neck and pulling back.
However, Golden Boy's superpower indeed countered Marie Moreau's blood manipulation. In just a few breaths, the blood whip was like boiling hot water, hissing as steam rose from it, and then quickly dispersed.
Due to the loss of too much blood in a short period, Marie Moreau, who is Black, had her face turn slightly pale.
"Should we keep a low profile?" Although Emma Meyer was an internet celebrity, this was her first time being noticed by so many people in reality. She was a little apprehensive. But she was even more worried that after Golden Boy returned to normal, he would cause trouble for her and Marie Moreau. You know, given Golden Boy's status in the School, they might have to spend all four years of university enduring the scornful looks of other Women. Not only that, Emma Meyer was also worried that Golden Boy, having lost face, would use his relationship within the School to expel Marie Moreau.
Marie Moreau didn't speak, but instead used a knife to cut the palm of her other hand, letting blood again, and threw it towards Golden Boy.
However, this time, Golden Boy was prepared for Marie Moreau's attack. Facing the incoming blood whip, he loosely clenched his fingers, igniting a ball of intense fire.
Then he grabbed the whip and instantly evaporated it.
"Now's the time." It must be said that Jordan Li's resistance to hits was indeed strong. After being thrown and hit by Golden Boy, he was still able to stand up unscathed and lock Golden Boy's hands.
At this moment, the gloomy-faced Indira had already picked up her mobile phone, preparing to make a phone call to Ashley Barrett, asking her to send Homelander or other Superheroes for support.
But when she pressed the call button, she found there was no signal on her mobile phone.
What's going on? How could there be no signal here? Indira, not believing it, pressed it several times repeatedly, but the result was that the mobile phone still showed no signal.
"Anderson, it's your turn to act." Polarity, who felt a bit embarrassed after his first attempt failed, also couldn't do it again in front of so many people. Moreover, according to his observation, Golden Boy's stamina was almost depleted, which was the best time for Anderson to act.
Anderson didn't hesitate in the face of his rampaging friend, because he knew very well that Golden Boy indeed couldn't be allowed to continue causing trouble.
He extended his right hand towards Golden Boy, then controlled the molten iron on the Ground, turning it into four strands of iron chain, which respectively restrained Golden Boy's hands and feet.
Golden Boy immediately wanted to break free from the iron chain, but as the iron chain got thicker, even using all his strength, he could only make the iron chain produce clanging sounds. Finally, under the combined attack of several people, the exhausted Golden Boy suddenly felt his eyes go black, fell headfirst to the Ground, and completely stopped moving.
"We succeeded?" The crowd who had retreated to the wall said in surprise, but none of them dared to go closer to check the situation.
Finally, Xia Shang walked towards Golden Boy.
He half-squatted in front of Golden Boy, using his finger to pry open the other person's eyelids. "He's unconscious."
To be honest, the growth of Golden Boy's ability still surprised him quite a bit. In just over a month, the temperature of his flames had risen by several hundred degrees. Judging solely from his performance just now, being able to melt steel in such a short time, the temperature of his flames was at least around two thousand degrees. This temperature was enough to satisfy Xia Shang, and also had the value for analysis and fusion.
"Jordan Li, your resistance to hits is very good." Xia Shang stood up and looked at Jordan Li, who was completely intact except for his clothes being burned. However, with his sharp eyes, he still noticed a small bruise on Jordan Li's jaw. But the minor flaw doesn't detract from the overall value. It seems this Godolkin University is indeed full of hidden talents.
"I'll have people come over to clean up now. Today's opening ceremony was ruined by Golden Boy," Indira shook her head with a forced bitter smile.
