Chapter 351: What the F*ck? It Was That Easy?!
"Vought sent us to handle a sudden situation," Billy said in a low voice.
Seeing the Vought Pass, the security guard at the main door didn't seem suspicious. He simply waved them through, allowing Billy and the others to enter.
"That easy?" Hughie couldn't help but exclaim upon seeing this.
"Did you think this thing in my hand was waste paper?"
Billy rolled up the car window, took off his sunglasses, put on his hood, and with a roar, he slammed the gas pedal, charging towards Xia Shang's location.
...
Meanwhile, Xia Shang suddenly turned his head to look outside. Billy and the others were quite bold, daring to come looking for trouble with him.
"Truly a diligent bunch."
Xia Shang wasn't angry; instead, the smile on his face deepened. Would a dragon feel rage because of an ant's provocation? Obviously not. Moreover, in Xia Shang's eyes, Billy and the others had always been excellent employees who diligently worked to contribute Fantasy Value to him. For these employees, Xia Shang would only feel anger if they slacked off and didn't work. After all, if Billy and the others didn't work and cause trouble, where would he get Fantasy Value? Without Fantasy Value, how could he Walk Through The Heavens and continuously grow stronger?
"Everyone, hands on your heads! Get down on the ground!" Billy, dressed as a bandit, kicked open the main door, raised the Assault Rifle in his hand, and fired a burst at the ceiling.
The sudden gunshot awakened the fear in people's hearts. For a moment, piercing screams rose and fell, as if they would shatter the glass.
"Da da da da..." The automatic rifle, equipped with a silencer, had a muffled gunshot, but it didn't lack the necessary deterrence. Billy fired another clip at the ceiling. "Everyone shut the f*ck up and obediently squat on the ground, or I'll shoot your heads off."
As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of people on the scene immediately squatted down in unison. Only Xia Shang, Indira, and Polarity remained standing.
"Aren't you scared?" Xia Shang said softly, smiling at Indira beside him.
Indira's gaze contained a hint of anger, and she said coldly, "A bunch of guys who don't know their place. They don't even look at where this is."
"Dean Shetty, leave these people to me." Jordan Li realized his chance to become famous had come again. As long as he took down those Terrorists, he would definitely become the number one on the Campus Ranking.
Imagination is always rich, but reality is often stark. For Billy and the others, dealing with these Supes who hadn't even fully matured yet was simply too easy.
Their appearance was practically a dimensionality reduction attack.
Jordan Li walked towards Billy and his group, enduring the incoming bullets.
"Nothing more than this," the confident Jordan Li said dismissively, glancing at the spent casing that landed at his feet.
"Is that so?" However, the next second, Billy suddenly rushed out, grinning ferociously, and kicked Jordan Li flying. With a loud bang, the tile instantly shattered. Jordan Li, hit in the abdomen, curled up in pain like a boiled red shrimp, sliding all the way until half his body was embedded in the wall, unable to even lift his head.
How is that possible! Indira's pupils constricted violently. Even her usual composure was hard to maintain.
"Now, all of you are my hostages." Billy's single move immediately intimidated everyone present, including the Supes. "This is the effect I wanted."
Billy took the nerve agent from his pocket with satisfaction, then looked at Xia Shang, who was standing in the crowd. "Stand still and don't move, or I'll kill all of them."
Saying this, Billy walked towards Xia Shang. However, halfway there, his steps suddenly paused, and then, under the disbelieving gaze of Indira, Hughie, and the others, Billy sprayed the nerve agent onto Indira's face.
"What the f*ck?" Hughie and the others were stunned. The nerve agent they had finally obtained, Billy actually used it on a strange woman.
"You truly are my lucky stars."
Xia Shang smiled as he looked at them.
Then, he replaced his own face in their memory with Indira's face.
"Nice! The plan succeeded!" The excited Hughie looked at the slumped Indira on the ground and cheered in his heart. He never imagined the plan would go so smoothly. Mr. Jervis is just dead like that?! "Let's go, hurry up and evacuate."
Billy immediately carried Indira's corpse on his back. To prevent her from faking death, he had to take the corpse for examination.
Billy and his group came and went quickly, like a gust of wind. Some people on the scene hadn't even reacted before Indira was taken away by them.
"I can't believe we took down Mr. Jervis so easily. How about we copy this method and go take down Homelander next?" The car quickly drove out of Godolkin University. Hughie's mood in the car was light and cheerful.
Compared to the beaming Hughie, Billy's expression was much more serious. He felt that something wasn't quite right. Mr. Jervis died too easily. With his strength and personality, he shouldn't have been killed by him like that. But he could definitely confirm that the other party had no heartbeat or breathing.
A minute later, Billy, unable to figure it out, immediately stepped on the brake and stopped the car by the roadside.
No, he had to check again. This matter was too strange.
He drew his dagger and came to the corpse. Just as he was about to stab the corpse's heart, Soldier Boy suddenly reached out and grabbed the blade.
"We were played by Mr. Jervis." Soldier Boy, who had a similar experience, quickly realized that Mr. Jervis likely had the same superpower as Mindstorm.
"What do you mean? This isn't Mr. Jervis?"
Hughie and the others gathered around the corpse, but no matter how they looked, the corpse's face and Mr. Jervis's face were identical.
"He brainwashed me and you. Mr. Jervis is male, and this corpse is clearly a woman." Once the memory tampering is broken, it quickly dissipates. Soldier Boy's words instantly resolved the confusion in Billy's mind. Soon, the face of Mr. Jervis in his memory became blurred. After a few breaths, Xia Shang's true appearance slowly emerged, becoming increasingly clear.
"Shit!!!" Billy, realizing he had been played, angrily plunged the dagger into the car body. At this moment, Hughie and the others, who had also been subjected to memory tampering, also remembered Mr. Jervis's true appearance. Their faces turned red, so angry they almost vomited blood.
"We were just played by Mr. Jervis like that?" Hughie shouted unwillingly.
"What else?" After understanding that the corpse wasn't Mr. Jervis himself, Billy felt a bit relieved. No wonder he kept feeling something wasn't right; it turned out he had been brainwashed by Mr. Jervis.
