Chapter 485: Too Late

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.... Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...” A guffaw interrupted Brother Jue’s thought and in a way, it also proved how wrong he was. Just as the Curry slowed down to cut through the ozone layer, the main screen of the spaceship was suddenly overridden by a strange image. In the image, a Shrugging Planet’s individual stood. He wore a metallic exoskeleton and helmet. The appearance and the laughter basically proved that... this was not a good person...

“Ha ha ha ha ha... USL (Universe Superhero League), you are finally here!” The person laughed before he finally spoke.

“Who are you?” The Tap Monster shouted at the screen.

“Hmph... You are truly frog under the well to not know my name.” The man scoffed. “I am the great brilliant scientist, Professor Sui Sui Sui Sui [bad luck]!”

[Jesus... Just how much your parents hate you to give you a name like that...] Feng Bujue thought.

“You managed to hack into this spaceship’s transmission channel?” Pi Li Dance Hero looked at the man and said darkly.

“Ha ha ha ha!” Professor Sui laughed. “Of course, nothing is simpler than that!” he paused and assumed a wicked expression. “Listen, superheroes, it is my advice for you to mind your own business. Turn back now or else...”

“Oh? Is that a threat?” Pi Li Dance Hero interrupted. “So... you are the person who is behind this threat?”

“Hmph... you managed to discern that at first glance, you are quite clever, don’t you...” Professor Sui scoffed.

[What the hell. What does that even have to do with cleverness?] Feng Bujue held his tongue but his heart was racing like crazy, [Someone like you basically had the words ‘I am the villian’ written on your face already.]

...

“At this point... there is nothing for me to hide anymore.” Professor Sui continued, “Yes, my true title should be the great, evil, invincible and brilliant scientist... Professor Sui Sui Sui Sui. That has a better ring to it, no?”

[What is the purpose of all this?!] Feng Bujue was truly worried about the man’s IQ. [What has the previous conversation served? The difference is just the words evil and invincible? Why don’t you just surrender yourself now?]

[How come that sounds so familiar...] Feng Bujue mumbled internally, [And... why this man is so eager to share so much details when I just prompted him slightly... The NPC in this world is so easily to get information out off.]

The Tap Monster was not yet done. “Toad Man, real name Wayne Bruce, he is the single son of the billionaire on the Planet Manhattan. When he was young, Wayne witnessed his parents murdered by villains before his eyes, then he swore to wipe away all trace of evil so that other children will be spared the same fate. For that, he visited many tears and mastered various detective and fighting skill. With the aid of Wayne Corp, he produced many high tech gadget and started his war against evil. In the day, he is a ladies’ man with more cash that he can spend but at night, he is the Dark Knight that cause shiver to run down the spine of all the villains that hear his name—Toad Man.”

[Is it really fine to ‘borrow’ Batman’s background so openly like this? Are sure it’s fine for you to tell his real name just like that? And... why Toad? Why? It makes no sense at all!] Feng Bujue was about to burst. He wanted to shout but he could not...

“Tinfoil Man...” The Tap Monster continued, “Real name is Stark Tony, he is the heir to the Tony Corp. He came from the Planet Mud who was famous for their technology. He is a well known military arms dealer, physicist, engineer, philanthropist, inventor, adventurer, millionaire and a playboy. With his own design of a body suit, it provided him with superhero’s strength, flight and many weapon system allowing him to fight evil. And the source of his power is the mini Arc Reactor at the front of his chest...”

“Erm... I will need to interrupt...” Brother Jue couldn’t hold it in anymore. “Then... why is he called Tinfoil man? Is his armor...”

“Yes, that’s right. The basic material to his armor is made up from the super tinfoil that he invented.” The Tap Monster answered. “This material is very light and is as strong as a superhero’s tights. And it resist pressure and temperature. Combine that with his nano grade technology, it can...”

“Hey! Look!” Then, Pi Li Dance Hero who was piloting interrupted them. He pulled one of the smaller screens up. “This is taken by the ship’s surveillance...” he said nervously. “What are those on the ground?”

The Tap Monster instantly turned around and gasped. “This... I don’t think they are the military’s official mechanized unit...”

Feng Bujue looked at the screen and he saw on the yellowish ground below the spaceship, there was a large shadow that was slowly moving... Upon closer inspection, one could tell it was a large army made up from robot beasts. They had different shapes and sizes. They were moving at high speed on the ground...

[What in the world is this...] Feng Bujue groaned. [Couldn’t you have come up with a zombie army or something... How do you expect us to deal with a robot beast army? Speaking of which, why are you villains so rich?! Couldn’t you have used the same money to do something more meaningful?]

“The coordination of the emergency signal is not far from here. I will now change to manual pilot mode.” Pi Li Dance Hero said as he took over the controls. “Tap Monster, try to contact the local government.”

“Understood.” Tap Monster answered as he picked up the communicator. He pressed a few buttons and then waited for 10 seconds. “Strange... I can’t find any signal.”

“Probably the government has hidden their signal to hide their loca...” Pi Li Dance Hero did not finish because he saw the base with his own eyes at the halfway point.

“Hmm...” Feng Bujue looked down the distance and said darkly. “Looks like we’re too late...”
