Chapter 8 Traitors are just tools, and anyone can use them
Steve walked into the underground safe house and asked worriedly, "Ian, are you alright?" ”
"What can I do, a magical queen can't do anything to me yet." Ian puffed up his chest, completely oblivious to the way he had just come to life.
Seeing Steve's distrustful gaze, Ian coughed lightly and changed the subject and said, "Why are you the only one to pick me up?" ”
Steve didn't pierce Ian's cowhide either, only saying, "The crook is not lightly injured, and he will lie in bed for a while and can't get up." The rebels didn't welcome me, so I had to pick you up alone. ”
"You brought it on yourself!" Ian doesn't sympathize with Steve at all.
"At that time, you didn't talk about something as important as the Wonder Queen chasing behind our butts. The rebels didn't arrest you as a spy, which can be regarded as merciful. ”
Steve really had nothing to argue with, and said helplessly: "I admit that these are all my faults, so don't mention it again." It's also to blame that I've had too many dealings with those bureaucrats in Washington in the past few years, and I don't have the backbone of a soldier. ”
Do you think you are Lu Bu? Return the backbone of the soldiers.
Ian resisted the urge to complain, rolled his eyes at him, and asked instead, "When will the crooks arrange for us to leave?" ”
Ian made such a big fuss, and the Wonder Queen will not give up and will definitely block the connection between the inside and outside of New Paradise Island.
If he doesn't leave quickly, once he is trapped on Paradise Island by the Amazons, then he is really a turtle in an urn, and he will be dead.
Steve understood this, and he replied, "There will be news tomorrow at the latest." Don't worry, even if you swim alone in the sea, I'll send you to the United States. ”
Ian looked at Steve's serious look, knew he was serious, shook his head and said, "If you swim across the Atlantic empty-handed, maybe you can get some Guinness World Records and be praised by the American media to the sky." ”
Steve opened his hand and said, "I'm trying to find a way to help, and if you don't support it, forget it, and even taunt me?" ”
Ian moved his body, half-lying on the bed more comfortably, and said to the puzzled Steve, "I didn't kill the Wonder Queen, and the war will continue." ”
"Why didn't you kill her?" Steve's eyes widened.
Ian spread his hands: "I was already running out of strength, and I could only use the Fantastic Queen to escape. Either both live or both die. I'm not going to bury that female tyrannosaurus. ”
"Moreover, the Fantastic Queen is dead, and the people of Atlantis have no checks and balances, and they will sink all the land into the sea."
The latter one was improvised by Ian.
"We have to get out of here right now and join forces for more."
Steve frowned, and said with a little hesitation: "Actually, I can call for help from the army, although there is a risk of being exposed by traitors, as long as they act fast enough, they will not be able to catch anyone." ”
"Yes." Ian nodded directly, agreed to the matter, and said, "You will contact the people over there now and ask them to send a transport plane or warship to pick up people?" ”
"You agreed?" Steve's eyes widened, surprised.
Ian smiled and said confidently, "Why don't I agree?" Paradise Island can take advantage of traitors, and so can we. Just let the people on your side toss, the more they move, the safer our movement will be. ”
Steve, who is also a veteran of the battlefield, immediately understood what he meant, and immediately began to contact the people at headquarters.
Ian was afraid that Steve would do what happened last time, so he hurriedly reminded: "You just need to tell the people over there to pick up people, and talk about the time for a few days, and don't say anything else." ”
"Don't worry, I'm not confused to that point." Steve nodded, showing Ian the message he was about to send.
Ian didn't look at it, but said, "You know it in your own heart, don't be stupid." It's not just the lives of the two of us. ”
With that, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
A few hours later, the satellite phone rang suddenly.
Ian opened his eyes and saw that Steve was asleep from the high load of fighting, and did not disturb the other party.
He moved his fingers, and the invisible air currents delivered the satellite phone to him.
The phone was connected, and the voice of the scammer rang.
"I've already contacted the departing ship, and the other party is short of time, so I'll come to the old place right away."
With that, the phone hung up.
Steve also opened his eyes, and when he heard the news, he stood up and stretched, and said with a smile, "It seems that our luck is not bad!" ”
"Hopefully this good fortune will continue forever!"
Ian smiled and walked out of the safe house, a nice rural village, but no one anymore.
He turned to Steve and said, "Where is the place where the liar said it is." You give me the place and I'll take you there. ”
Steve pulls out his tactical terminal and marks the location on the map.
Ian took out the Super Rubik's Cube, blue light flashed, put on lightning running shoes, and a blue lightning symbol appeared on his eyebrows.
Steve looked at the running shoes that popped up and asked, "Where did you get such a thing?" ”
Ian waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about this, it's my little secret." ”
Steve didn't ask anyone else who didn't have a little secret, as long as Ian was on his side.
"Ready, we're going!"
Ian reminded him, grabbed Steve's shoulder, and with a force under his feet, he turned into a blue-white lightning bolt and rushed out.
The air resistance during the blistering run deformed Steve's face, but he couldn't help but complain, and he couldn't complain.
He could only hold on to Ian so that he would not be thrown out.
There are two words in his heart now, regret, very regretful.
I would have driven over if I had known.
Fortunately, a few seconds later, Ian noticed Steve's face that was red from being able to breathe, and mobilized his strange force to weaken the strength of the air flow around him.
At this moment, Steve was finally able to catch his breath and come back to life.
Ian ran with him for a few more minutes, and when he saw the scammers, he hurriedly braked.
He stood still on his legs, stirred up a wave of dust, and slid for dozens of meters under the action of inertia before stopping.
The waiting scammer and others just saw the blue lightning flashing by, and then they ate a mouthful of dirt.
"Ahem, what the hell is going to cross over?"
Ian put down Steve, looked at the dusty rebels, and quickly apologized: "It's me who didn't control the strength well, I'm sorry for everyone." ”
As he spoke, he waved his hand and blew a gust of wind that swept the dust away from the crowd.
"I won't blame you this time." The liar said, "But if you can't bring back reinforcements, I'll settle accounts with you." ”
Ian smiled knowingly and replied, "Then you don't have a chance to teach me a lesson." ”
Steve, who had been throwing up for a while, came over and asked the swindler, "Now besides the army, whose ship dares to approach the British Isles?" ”
"Death Knell, Slade Joseph Wilson! The guy's daughter disappeared in France, and now he has turned from a mercenary to a pirate, running the seas every day. ”
The scammer sat in the car, his injuries were not yet healed, but he still gave them away for Ian's sake: "I promised to give him a batch of supplies in exchange for bringing you back to the United States along the way." ”
Ian nodded.
If he guessed correctly, this time the death knell was going to pick up Luthor and find the place where the Sea Overlord hid the Lu Shen Machine.
Then, this wave of people will be killed by the Sea Overlord.
"The time is almost up." The crook takes a look at his watch, lets Ian and Steve in the car, and takes them to the beach.
I saw a ship coming at the junction of sea and sky.
Ian squinted his eyes and looked into the distance to see a man standing at the bow of the ship, it was the death knell.
A classic black and yellow metal helmet, with a red diamond-shaped eyepiece on the left eye, and an all-black one on the left without a slit.
Deathstroke was also looking over the cliff and saw Ian.
The two looked at each other, and Ian smiled brightly.
Feeling a little glaring, Deathbell immediately withdrew his gaze and ordered the ship to stop at a safe distance.
"Goodbye." Ian shook hands with the crook, hugged him and said, "Live well, don't wait for me to bring people back, you are all dead." ”
The scammer deliberately grimaced, waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about discouragement, get out of here!" ”
Ian waved goodbye to the rebels, grabbed Steve, and sent a blast of air to him, pushing himself towards Knell's ship.
