Chapter Twenty-Five: A Word of Disagreement
Hearing this, Peter was slightly stunned. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info a strange feeling of taking for granted came from his heart. His hand trembled twice, and he reached for his mask.
And the moment his fingers touched her mask, his movements stopped. And at this moment, his eyes had completely regained their clarity.
"So that's your hole card, that's what you're for?" Peter's cold voice came from under the mask, a tone tinged with sarcasm. "Mind control, I guess I'm not wrong. It's a pity that this ability happens to be a little bit better than me, and it seems that you are not strong enough to control me. ”
Kilgrave froze, and the calm and confident smile that had been on his face froze. It was a moment before a hint of annoyance flashed across his face. He didn't seem to have any idea that his abilities would fail, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"You took control of the weasel and let him lure me in. Then you try to control me and end up throwing me to Fisk for a big bounty. That's your plan? ”
"Fisk? The guy who calls himself the king of the underworld on the East Coast of the United States? Hearing Peter's question, Kilgrave smiled dumbly and shook his head. No, no, no, although his power is quite powerful among mortals, it is only those lowly mortals. You and I, we are not the same. ”
"Mortal? You mean, you think you're different from everyone else? Peter was keen to grasp the details of Kilgrave's diction.
"Of course it's different!" Kilgrave opened his hands, and his emotions suddenly lifted. "Do you really think that the ants that will be driven by you with a single word are the same beings as we are? Are they worthy? Or do you think it's fun to play games with a colony of ants all day? ”
"You're a madman." Peter frowned.
"Crazy? No, I just see it better than you do. And I'm sure that if you are given enough time, you will agree with me sooner or later. It's true that Fisk guy pulled the string, but my target this time was you from the beginning, and it has nothing to do with him. ”
"Your target is me?" A chill rose from Peter's back. "This man, I want to state it beforehand. My gender is male and my hobby is female. While I understand that homophobic discrimination is no longer in vogue, I have to say one more thing: Dead faggots get out of the way. ”
But Kilgrave was not in the slightest annoyed, and as if he had not heard Peter's words at all, he continued to speak to himself.
"I used to be like you, and I loved playing those games with those mortals. Damon can be considered the final prize of these games. He gestured to the middle-aged man standing in the corner, and he nodded. It must be admitted that, in a way, it was quite interesting at the time, and Damon was quite dutiful as a servant. But when there are too many collectibles, you will find that only the few that are truly meaningful are truly collectible. And now, I've found arguably the best collectible. ”
Kilgrave looked at Peter, the most sincere smile of the meeting.
"That's you, Red Mask."
Peter struck out the next moment. He pressed the button of a remote control in his pocket, and at the same time opened the table between him and Kilgrave, smashing it directly at Damon, who was still in the corner, while his own body rushed towards Kilgrave, who was less than two meters away from him.
Capture the thief and capture the king first! Kilgrave was clearly the one calling the shots here, and the other person's mind control abilities didn't have much effect on him. On the other hand, Damon, who had been waiting in the shadows on the side, said almost nothing from beginning to end, but the dangerous aura emanating from him was not weak at all, even comparable to when Peter first met Matt!
Hold him back for a moment... As long as you can get Kilgrave under control first, you can take the initiative.
Then a chill flashed through his mind, causing his movements to stop in mid-air. And his right hand, which had been stretched out, also subconsciously retracted, just dodging a bullet that flew between his fingers.
Time went back two seconds, and Damon, who was moving almost at the same time as Peter, completely ignored the head-on table that weighed more than ten kilograms and flew towards him. Expressionlessly, he raised his pistol and fired it straight at the table. And this seemingly meaningless bullet intercepted Peter's puff after piercing the thin layer of wood!
The slight time difference was enough for Kilgrave to react. Still sitting on the chair, he laughed twice and kicked his legs violently. The chair he was sitting in backed back more than a meter with a tooth-aching sound, and he distanced himself from Peter.
Peter, who had already lost his best chance to attack, had to give up the tempting idea of continuing to attack, and threw the smoke bomb that had been prepared to the side. Damon, who was on the side, had already drawn his submachine gun and fired in the general direction of Peter.
Sawdust flies, and the expensive furniture and decorations that the weasel has just bought are reduced to broken garbage under Damon's strafing fire. The shelter Peter had just found provided less than three seconds of protection before it was beaten into a sieve.
Damn, there's definitely something wrong with this guy's weapon. How is it possible for a bullet from an ordinary submachine gun to possess such a level of penetration!?
Peter gritted his teeth and tumbled out the moment before the cabinet he was using as a shield could no longer hold on, escaping the dense hail of bullets. Damon reacted extremely quickly and adjusted the muzzle of his gun, while Peter threw the flashbang in his hand one step ahead of him. Caught off guard, Damon and Kilgrave both hit the ball, instantly losing their vision.
And Damon's fire did not stop in the slightest. Before the bullets in the magazine of the first submachine gun were about to run out, he actually took another submachine gun from his back, and continued to rain bullets in Peter's direction with his vision seriously affected. To Peter's horror, even in this situation, Damon's head was frighteningly high. If it weren't for Peter's ability to predict, he would have been swept by a stray bullet and fell to the ground with serious injuries.
"Stop, you idiot!" Kilgrave's angry voice came from another corner of the room. "I want him to live, to live, do you understand? I don't mind if you break his limbs or give him a few shots in the ass. But if he does die, you won't end well! ”
Damon froze slightly, and a small gap finally appeared in the firepower that had not stopped at all from the beginning. And Peter seized the opportunity to rush forward. He had already closed the distance between the two sides during the chaos caused by the flashbang, and he grabbed a round table with a broken bottom, protected it like a shield in front of him, and slammed it into Damon.
Damon's muzzle turned, ready to teach the little guy in front of him how weak the 'shield' in his hand was before his bullets. At that moment, the window next to him suddenly burst open, and the flying shards of glass diverted his attention for a moment. Peter slammed into his body, sending him flying straight away and slamming him against the wall behind him. Matt slipped in through the window the next moment, and the rope in his hand shot out like a snake, wrapping around Damon's right hand. Matt jerked, and the submachine gun in Damon's hand flew out of his hand.
Peter's backup finally arrived. Matt, who had been waiting outside the tavern, immediately set off after receiving Peter's signal, disarming Damon at this critical moment.
Peter spun around and threw the table in his hand like a frisbee, striking Kilgrave in the chest as he was about to speak, knocking him to the ground.
"I'm going to deal with that guy first, I must not let him speak!" Peter quickly whispered an order to Matt, and Matt, although he still hadn't fully understood the situation in the arena, nodded his head and chose to trust Peter completely.
Before they could make any moves, a loud bang came from their left. The wall separating the two rooms on the upper floor of the bar collapsed with a bang, stirring up countless clouds of smoke and wood debris. A bald-headed black man walked in through the hole, which was more than two meters wide, and stood in front of Kilgrave.
