Sitting in the so-called latest transport vehicle, Ye Kai's face was ashen.
"Damn it!"
Once again, he had been fooled. This was not some cutting-edge transport vehicle; it felt more like a tractor!
The bumpy ride had him on the verge of vomiting, and several times he couldn't help but retreat into the System Space to escape.
Who would have thought that this thing, which looked decent on the outside, would feel like it was about to fall apart during flight?
Seeing Carter and Steve exchanging glances as if they were in a romantic drama only made Ye Kai more anxious. He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Howard, you bastard! When are we going to arrive?"
His shout was startling, and even in the cacophony of the vehicle's noise, it caught everyone's attention.
The shout was indeed effective; Steve and Carter exchanged startled looks, their moment of intimacy abruptly interrupted.
Howard, however, shouted back nonchalantly, "Trust me, I'm a businessman and the richest single noble in all of New York. I care about myself more than you do. Don't worry, it's going to be fine."
Ye Kai's eyelids twitched. He yelled, "The last thing I want to hear is that from you!"
Suddenly, beads of sweat began to form on his forehead. He shouted again, "Step on it!"
Howard gave a thumbs up and flashed a bright smile with his pearly white teeth. "Don't worry; my skills are top-notch!"
What the hell are you thinking?
"Why do I always feel like there's this subtly awkward vibe between us?"
Ye Kai frowned, "I'm just trying to encourage you, okay!"
Howard flashed a big grin, his face radiating the 'you're such a good buddy' energy. "Thanks, my friend. Don't worry, we're almost there."
"I'm telling you to step on the gas, you idiot!"
This is a war zone, do you understand that?
Can't you see the artillery fire ahead?
I don't want to be turned into human mush by the Dora Cannon, you fool!
Ye Kai's face had turned pale, and he had already activated the Energy Shield. To be honest, he really regretted not letting those scientists study the aircraft properly first!
Damn Howard!
Damn this reckless journey!
He really was just looking for trouble!
But when he turned his head, he saw the two sitting across from him still exchanging glances filled with unspoken feelings, yet never breaking the silence. He rolled his eyes in exasperation and muttered, "Steve, if you like Carter, just go for it. Otherwise, when Howard swoops in and steals her heart, you'll be the one crying like a fool!"
At these words, Steve and Carter immediately looked up in shock, exchanging a quick glance filled with guilt. Their faces flushed as they quickly turned away.
"Hey, hey, hey, this isn't some kind of idol drama, you know?"
"Don't twist your words like that!"
Just as Ye Kai was about to make another sarcastic remark, Howard suddenly turned around. "Ye, even though you're my friend, you can't insult my flying skills like that. Otherwise..."
What the hell!
Am I insulting you or something?
Can we not put 'flying' and 'skills' in the same sentence?
You’re making it hard for someone with a wild imagination to think about those two words in the future!
With veins popping on his forehead, Ye Kai gritted his teeth and shouted, "Otherwise, are you going to challenge me to a duel? I can let you use one hand if you want! Want to do it right now? Just focus on flying your..."
"Ye!"
Steve had a serious expression on his face. "Just hold on a bit longer; we'll be done soon."
Oh come on!
Can’t you guys just speak normally?
"Exactly! Ye, as your most loyal friend, I feel I must give you some advice. You really need to control your emotions; otherwise, you'll have trouble finding a girlfriend."
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Ye Kai immediately became unwilling, standing up abruptly and shouting angrily, "Are we here to have a party? Can you all take this seriously? This is a war zone, do you understand?"
...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The sounds were like the crackling of firecrackers during the New Year, followed by massive explosions that shook the plane as if it were about to fall apart.
Ye Kai's face turned pale as he swallowed hard, staring out the window at the shells exploding one after another, the deafening roars never seeming to pause.
On the other hand, Steve and Carter hardly showed any signs of worry, occasionally exchanging glances before quickly looking away.
Howard, known for his playboy reputation, was never short of women around him. His methods of flirting were legendary. Seeing him turn back to chat up Carter made Ye Kai's heart race with anxiety.
He was genuinely afraid that Howard would crash the plane into a shell!
He couldn't help but feel uneasy because Howard had clearly taken an interest in Carter. It seemed that any woman who was even slightly attractive caught his eye, and he would flirt with them all.
What if Carter really fell for Howard? How miserable would Steve be!
Could it be that Howard had some kind of charm?
No, wait, what am I even thinking?
Now I should be thinking about myself!
With the continuous barrage of artillery, what if I jump down and a shell explodes right next to me? That would be disastrous!
Suddenly, Ye Kai felt as if he had forgotten something; something seemed off. When he finally realized it, he slapped his forehead: "Damn it! The plot has completely gone awry."
In the original storyline, Steve wasn't supposed to rescue James at this point in time!
There was a gap of several months in between!
Although Red Skull, also known as John Schmidt, had established a massive military base here, a secret Supernatural Science Research Institute, Ye Kai still had an uneasy feeling.
Fortunately, he still had the Multifunctional Detector; at least he knew where Schmidt was located.
“Ladies and gentlemen, you have arrived at your destination!”
Howard turned around with a smile: “Good luck to you all; I won’t be escorting you.”
Destination my foot!
Do you even know how to talk?
Ye Kai felt a wave of frustration wash over him. Gritting his teeth, he decided to ignore this fool and stood up, walking towards the cabin door, taking deep breaths. But in an instant, he felt a twinge of anxiety.
What if it’s all a trick?
"This must be at least a thousand meters high; just looking at it makes my legs weak!"
Swallowing hard, he turned to Steve and said, "Hey, buddy, you jump first. I need to cover you."
Steve shot him a look of disbelief, glancing at the pale-faced guy. "Don't waste time, just go!"
At that moment, Carter swung the cabin door open. "Hurry up, remember to breathe."
Feeling the fierce cold wind rush in, Ye Kai gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and muttered angrily under his breath, "This is truly a damn ridiculous experience!"
Stick your head out and you get chopped off!
"Damn it, let's just jump!"
An unfamiliar shiver surged through him, as if all the blood in his body had started to flow backward. A cold sweat immediately broke out on his back.
It wasn't just the sensation of weightlessness that made him dizzy for a moment; explosions from nearby shells echoed around them.
This was simply a journey to death!
