Chapter 210: The Situation Escalates
The atmosphere suddenly froze, especially for Peter and the other five.
Originally, when they heard Karn call out "Brother," they thought they were done for. They couldn't even handle one Karn, let alone add another Daimons who looked like a fierce god.
But before the five could sink into despair, Daimons' next words made them doubt their ears.
Brotherly strife indeed sounded unacceptable in modern times.
Compared to the group of five, Karn appeared much calmer. Originally, his relationship with the other members of the Inheritors was very bad. Cursing at each other upon meeting was considered a greeting, and even drawing knives was considered intimate.
But taking lives was something that had never happened before. After all, although Karn was an eyesore, he was still somewhat useful. The Inheritors had a small population, and Karn was, in any case, considered labor.
Out of sight, out of mind, Karn and the others in the Inheritors had maintained this state. They were all clear in their inner hearts that they had been at peace for a hundred years, without breaking this thin veil.
But they all knew that this state could not last long, so when Daimons said he wanted to kill him at this time, in Karn's view, the time had come, and he had lost his value.
Karn turned around, abandoning Peter who was about to be captured, ignoring Luke Cage's Injury, and pulled the Steel Fork from his Body, causing him to scream in agony.
Unlike these wet-behind-the-ears children, facing Daimons, Karn also had to deal with it with all his Power, not to mention he was still hungry.
As for why not eat Peter first, this was a stupid Problem. Daimons had no chivalry and would not let Karn eat his fill and make himself uncomfortable.
"The Other, The Bride, and the descendants are all found?" Karn asked. In Karn's view, the only possibility for him to be abandoned was because the three special Spiders had been found.
"No," Daimons replied.
"Those Spiders have nothing to do with me anymore."
"What do you mean?" Karn posed, to prevent Daimons from launching a sneak attack at any moment.
"Literal meaning." Daimons flipped his Wrist, and the Chainsword was once again taken in his Hand.
"I have gained even more Power, and finally don't have to run around for food anymore. I have killed Father, Molun and Jennix, and it's your turn next."
As for Brix and Bora, Daimons didn't take them seriously at all. After solving Karn, they were not Trouble at all.
"You can make me gain even more Power." Daimons grinned hideously.
"As Family, you won't even help me with this little favor, right? My dear Younger brother"
Karn's expression was hidden by the Metal Helmet, but seeing his Hand holding the Steel Fork shaking, you knew his Inner Heart was definitely not Peaceful.
"You Madman!" Karn's voice trembled, even a little distorted, faintly showing a trend of losing control.
Daimons smiled, looking quite pleased. He said this to anger Karn. Only this idiot Younger brother would care about Family. Sure enough, he was already furious with just a few words.
Karn squeezed the Steel Fork fiercely, took big steps towards Daimons again. The continuous Hunger and Anger turned him into a Beast. Now Karn only wanted to kill Daimons with his own Hand.
Facing the aggressive Karn, Daimons lifted the Chainsword and chopped down. Karn thrust his Fork, using the Fork Head to steadily block the Chainsword, and sparks flew everywhere for a Time.
Karn rotated the Steel Fork, wanting to use the Fork Head to shatter Daimons' Chainsword, but found that the Chainsword was exceptionally strong. On the contrary, his Energy Fork Head faintly showed a trend of being unable to hold on.
Gripping the Steel Fork tightly, Karn quickly injected more Power into the Steel Fork, which stopped the trend of the Fork Head collapsing. Karn knew that he had lost the initiative, and Daimons' killing move was coming soon.
Sure enough, Daimons opened his mouth and shouted: "Lightning Flash!"
As soon as the words fell, countless Electric Current surged out of Daimons' Body and went straight to Karn.
Karn had already been highly vigilant. Seeing this, he decisively withdrew Energy, and the Fork Head disappeared instantly. After losing restraint, Karn held the Steel Fork in one Hand, tiptoed and retreated backwards.
Karn retreated too fast, causing Daimons' Lightning to strike empty air, only shattering the roof of someone's Home, splashing pieces of Rubble.
"This is the Power you just gained?" Karn waved the Steel Fork, and the crimson Fork Head reappeared.
"It's normal for you to be shocked to see such great Power." Daimons looked quite smug.
"You haven't eaten for a long Time, have you? If you can take the initiative to come over and die, I might even leave you a complete corpse."
Karn didn't speak anymore, and the Steel Fork aimed at Daimons explained everything.
"Too bad, it's rare for me to be so kind." Daimons retracted the Chainsword, and purple Light reappeared in his Eyes, and his feet slowly lifted off the ground.
Daimons thought Karn was going to fight him to the Death, but in fact, it wasn't. Karn was also delaying Time. Just like Daimons said, it had indeed been a long Time since Karn last ate.
Unlike other Tribesmen, Karn hunted only to fill his Belly and never killed indiscriminately. Therefore, he rarely had Time to eat his fill, and often waited until he was Hunger before going hunting.
Adding to the fact that he had just fought with Peter and the others, which also consumed a lot of Energy, Karn was now exhausted. Fighting to the Death with Daimons, there was not even a trace of possibility of victory.
Karn naturally understood, so he prepared to delay Time. Karn had just noticed that Peter was secretly making small Action. Without thinking, he knew that he was calling for Reinforcements.
Calculate the Time, five or six minutes have passed since Peter's small Action, and Reinforcements should have arrived.
Sure enough, with a roar, four or five Quinjet Fighters appeared from the clouds, slowly landed, and surrounded the two brothers.
There was also a Transport Aircraft that landed beside Peter and the others.
"Put down Weapon! Hands up and surrender!"
A piercing Broadcast sounded, and all Quinjet Fighters revealed their Weapons, aiming at the two brothers.
The Transport Aircraft cabin Door opened, and Nick Fury took the lead to walk out. Behind him followed a team of Medical Personnel. Under the cover of Agent, they gathered all the group of five together.
"Thank God you finally came!" Peter breathed a sigh of relief. He was like he had found his backbone.
"How are their Injuries?" Fury ignored Peter and instead asked the Medical Personnel about the Injuries of several people first.
"It's okay, the Injuries are not serious." Medical Personnel replied after a simple check.
"The most serious Iron Fist is just a few broken Bone. As long as they are properly cared for, they can recover quickly relying on their own Physique."
Those present are all Superhuman. Their resistance to blows and recovery Ability are far beyond Ordinary person. These Injuries are only considered minor Injuries to them. They can recover seventy-eighty percent in a week, and can move freely in about half a month.
Fury nodded, and then put his gaze on a few people.
