Chapter 1965: My Fault Again?

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Luke had no time to deal with the three people who had fled.

There was nothing to say. If they ran into him again, that self-proclaimed ‘god’ Werner would be killed.

He could investigate Gordon later.

The most important thing now was to save the girl who had inexplicably ‘betrayed’ him.

His gaze fell on Skye, and he realized that she was still conscious.

!!

He stopped tasering her and then shot her in the chest with a paralysis dart.

The dart was quickest to take effect here – it had nothing to do with the two shock waves he had just been hit with.

A few seconds later, he looked at Skye in surprise as she gradually recovered. “The paralysis dart is useless? Forget it, I’ll be more direct.”

As soon as he said that, he slapped her on the head.

Dong!

It was like an ordinary person slapping a watermelon to test how ripe it was. Skye, who had just regained some life in her eyes, blacked out and collapsed.

In any case, it was Big Dipper who had tasered her and knocked her out; it had nothing to do with Luke.

Luke picked up the unconscious Skye and walked into the house. He put her in a simple hibernation bag, which Mindy jokingly called the ‘body bag,’ and threw her into Space 2. Only then did he turn invisible and leave.

Skye, who had been thrown into Space 2, was immediately examined by Ophelia, the female scientist who specialized in nanotoxins.

Of course, she could only command robots behind a partition, and couldn’t do anything dangerous to Skye.

Ophelia kept up a scathing commentary, saying things like, “Don’t tell me this is your little lover?” and “Is she pregnant?”

Luke ignored the woman.

Ever since he stabbed her in the cerebellum in Japan and she recovered, Ophelia’s neurosis was completely fixed.

As long as she didn’t dawdle in doing her work, he would pretend not to hear anything she said.

His clone sent a message to Selina to explain the situation, and Luke got to work at the same time.

An android hidden not far from Afterlife came out of its box and released the drone that had been stored along with it to monitor Afterlife.

Luke didn’t usually monitor Afterlife, out of courtesy toward the organization and Jiaying.

Today, however, Gordon had taken Werner with him to capture Skye. Forget saving face – there was a traitor among the Inhumans.

It would be strange if Luke didn’t react.

After the android released the drone, it turned invisible and quietly snuck into Afterlife.

It wasn’t safe to observe Gordon from a distance.

After entering, Luke immediately noticed something unusual.

None of the “hidden sentries” which Luke had left here had sounded an alarm, but the drone had already captured images of Werner and Jiaying talking in the garden outside the house.

Since a stranger had appeared next to Jiaying in Afterlife, the sentries should have sent out a secret signal.

The secret signal was nothing more than the sentries inadvertently placing things in strategic places, and they themselves wouldn’t notice their own behavior.

However, none of the dozen or so secret sentries in various areas sent out the secret signal.

Recalling how Skye had sounded the alarm and resisted, but then turned around to attack Big Dipper in the blink of an eye, the anomaly couldn’t be any more obvious.

As a killer of superhuman criminals, the owner of many superpowers, and a master of Pheromone Control, Luke knew that there might indeed be other types of non-mental-based ways of controlling other people in this world.

That was the only explanation for Skye’s behavior today.

Was she a spy? What a joke.

He didn’t pry into his teammates’ private lives, but Alfred continually collected daily information on everyone.

This data and analyses were stored on a separate server. After they were backed up at regular intervals, they were thrown into his inventory, and the data in Alfred’s system was erased. There was basically no risk of a leak.

Once the security algorithm detected an anomaly, the backup data would be handed over to Ultima in Space 2 for a follow-up.

Besides, Luke had mental abilities, and Skye wouldn’t have been able to hide anything from him for long.

Looking at the respectful expressions on Jiaying, Gordon and Skye’s faces, he was even more certain of his guess.

Jiaying was a complete power fanatic.

Even in the face of Big Dipper’s pressure back then, she hadn’t completely given up on holding power; feelings and ideals couldn’t hold a candle to that.

But the closer he got to the answer, the more Luke frowned.

So far, none of the Inhumans who had run into Werner had been spared, and they all acted obediently.

What were Inhumans? They were a race that had either awakened superpowers or were waiting to do so.

Afterlife itself had more than 20 awakened Inhumans who were combat-ready.

If they were all under Werner’s control and unafraid of death, that would really be big news.

Half an hour later, something big happened in Afterlife before Luke could finish preparing.

At Werner’s order, Gordon teleported a dozen Inhumans away.

At that moment, Luke had already reported the matter to the Avengers and New SHIELD.

Seeing the information which Luke sent over, Tony only looked at it for a moment before he contacted Knight over the comms. “Are you kidding me? A dozen superhumans, unified command, absolute obedience?”

Luke said, “It’s not a joke. Get ready for something big.”

Tony was a little unhappy. “Hey, it’s like I said before: Superhumans who can’t be controlled should be supervised. Then maybe this wouldn’t be happening now.”

Luke asked, “Are you sure it’s just supervising them and not forcing them to become someone else’s lackeys?”

Tony rolled his eyes. “Eating makes us fat, so we don’t eat anymore? Mandatory supervision is more practical and safer than disorderly freedom.”

Luke said, “Sorry, but I don’t want to supervise superhumans. Otherwise, they’ll all become paraplegics in a few years.”

Tony: “…Your logic is really sound and hard to refuse. Fine, let’s deal with these superhumans first.”

Luke said, “No, what we really need to do is deal with the ‘god’ that Hydra brought back from another planet. That’s the root of everything.”

Tony said helplessly, “Please be human! We’ve been investigating Hydra all this time, and have never come up with anything as exaggerated as what you’re saying. The moment it arrives, it’s a ‘god.’ Should I call Thor over to see where this wild god came from?”

Luke looked at the tycoon with a complicated expression for a moment before he reminded him, “Did you forget that Werner is Baron Strucker’s son?”

Tony suddenly had a bad feeling, but he still acted stubborn. “Of course I know that. So what?”

Luke said, “You killed the Baron with one shot and orphaned Werner, which was why Gideon chose him and used him as a sacrifice to the ‘god’.”

The tycoon and Knight looked at each other for a long while through the virtual screen before Tony nodded with a dark face. “Okay, fine, it’s my fault again, alright?”

Luke said indifferently, “It’s fine. A good kid knows when to turn over a new leaf.”

Tony gave him the middle finger.

He raised his hand and cut the communication. He mumbled a few words, but finally sighed. “Fine, I did cause this, so I’ll take care of it.”
