130. The Gaze.

130. The Gaze.

Alex had almost forgotten the last time another being had perceived him so intensely. Seeing the chaos around Orb, Alex laughed heartily. He knew this guy must have seen something terrifying and now definitely knew who they were.

"Boss, what's wrong?"

"What happened, Boss? Are you okay?"

Several burly men rushed over to help the frantic Orb. They quickly realized his condition was worse than they had imagined. His enormous eyeball was filled with hideous blood vessels, and he was writhing in agony.

"Stop it, please stop!" Orb wailed. He suddenly broke free from the men's support, grabbed a broken glass from the floor, and aimed it at his giant eyeball.

Unfortunately, the security guards stopped him and took the glass away. As Orb's subordinates, they couldn't let him harm himself.

"Help me! Help me!" Orb clutched the nearest guard, his strength leaving deep scratches on the man's arm.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?!" The guard asked, enduring the pain.

The other patrons quickly backed away from Orb, and a few mercenaries near the door took the opportunity to escape. Orb slowly calmed down, experiencing a brief moment of peace. Then he pointed at Alex, Kara, and Pietro.

"Don't let them near me! It's him, the speedster, they're here!!!"Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

Everyone's faces changed at his words.

In the wasteland, kindness was cheap and often cost your life. To build a new city in this hopeless, chaotic world, you first had to destroy it completely. Hope's new sprouts grew from the ruins. It didn't take long—just the time for a drink—for the nightclub to fall silent. Besides Alex, Kara, and Pietro, only Orb remained alive.

Alex took his drink and walked to Orb. The latter, terrified, tried to back away but found himself against the wall with nowhere to go.

"Spare me, please spare me, I really don't know anything!" Orb pleaded.

"I haven't even asked yet," Alex said with a cold laugh. He squatted down, asking calmly, "I'm curious. What did you see through your eye?"

"If I tell you, will you let me go?" Orb couldn't meet Alex's gaze, shielding himself with trembling arms.

Alex didn't answer directly. He finished his drink and said, "If you don't talk, I'll kill you."

"I'll talk, I'll talk," Orb hurriedly said in fear. "I don't know you, I've never seen you, but I know him, the speedster, Quicksilver. I saw him in his suit, running on the street, chasing a black shadow."

"Is that all?" Alex frowned, displeased.

"And, and that woman!" Orb pointed at Kara. "I saw her in a red and blue suit with a red cape. I didn't see much else, that's all I know, I swear!"
