Across the Pacific!
Wade initially thought Chen Mo was joking and was about to nod, but a sudden surge of unease saved him once again.
Wade quietly glanced around at the classical decorations. Although he didn't understand them very well, Wade knew that the luxurious yet understated, solemn and historically significant decor here could not have been created casually.
Even the queen's palace is merely more magnificent; it may not possess more depth and cultural heritage than this place.
This made Wade wonder if Chen Mo was really a vampire who had lived for thousands of years.
Finally, when Wade's gaze fell on a full set of Knight's armor placed to the side, his pupils involuntarily contracted.
This armor is not particularly ornate, but it exudes a sharp and imposing aura. It is clearly not an art piece meant for display, but rather equipment used by Knight actually went to the battlefield, covered with the marks of battle.
The most obvious thing was a claw mark on the chest of the armor! The shape of the claw mark was very similar to Victor's attack, but what really made Wade's expression change was the row of teeth marks on the armor's gauntlet!
Two of the wounds were deep and dented, clearly indicating that they were caused by the sharp teeth of a wild beast. Based on the distribution of the teeth, Wade could easily guess that they were left by a wolf-like beast with an extremely long snout.
However, judging from its size, it was much larger than any wolf. Wade quickly thought of a creature closely related to vampires: a werewolf!
Seeing the strange look in Chen Mo's eyes, as if he were really hoping for his agreement, Wade wisely shut his mouth tightly and shook his head vigorously.
Glancing at Wade, Chen Mo ignored him and turned to walk to the lobby on the first floor. He sat down on the sofa, and the three of Wade stopped visiting the castle and went downstairs to stand in a row in front of Chen Mo.
Not long after, the roar of an engine came from afar and finally stopped in the Castle.
While Wade and the other two were undergoing Super Soldier Serum enhancement, Chen Mo called Su Wan and summoned her back. As soon as Su Wan came out of the garage and entered the hall, she felt three pairs of eyes fixed on her.
Su Wan looked up and saw three agile men in black combat uniforms standing in front of Chen Mo, turning to look at her.
Su Wan couldn't help but scrutinize the three people carefully. One of them seemed normal; although he was wearing combat gear, he had a gentle demeanor. When he saw her, he smiled slightly and greeted her.
The other two were rather strange. They were both tall and had a cold and stern demeanor. Their gazes carried a hint of chill. Most strangely, they also carried two long knives on their backs and had two holsters fixed to their thighs. The pistol grips inside the holsters were exposed, clearly not just for show.
If Chen Mo hadn't said on the phone that someone wanted to introduce her to someone, Su Wan would have thought a bad guy had broken in.
Su Wan was filled with doubt, but she didn't stop walking. She quickly walked to Chen Mo's side, stood still, and said softly.
"Boss, I'm back!"
"Um."
Chen Mo nodded slightly, pointed at the three people in front of him, and slowly said.
"These three are bodyguards I hired. Please arrange rooms for them."
Su Wan nodded upon hearing this, feeling relieved. No wonder he carried a gun; it turned out he was a bodyguard hired by the boss.
Su Wan was unaware of Chen Mo's strength; otherwise, she would have wondered why a boss with such power would need to hire bodyguards.
Chen Mo didn't say much. He handed the three of them over to Su Wan, told them to follow Su Wan's instructions and stay in the Castle for a while, and then said that he had to go out for a while and turned to go to the garage.
After hastily settling the first batch of subordinates he brought back from the world of "Wolverine," Chen Mo had an even more important matter to attend to.
It has been four months since the plane crash, and Chen Mo has successfully found a way to revive his grandfather, Chen Jingde. He is now eager to get back.
After donning the Iron Man suit directly from the garage and attaching the stealth equipment, Chen Mo activated stealth mode. Only then did he activate the suit's thrusters and fly out of the garage door.
As Su Wan led Wade and the other two upstairs, she heard a familiar whooshing sound coming from outside and frowned in confusion.
Was that sound made by the boss? Did he buy a jet plane?
After flying out of the villa and reaching the airspace above the sea, Chen Mo released his psychic power to envelop his battle suit and cloaking device, forming an invisible, materialized spindle-shaped shell. He then focused all his psychic power on the battle suit, propelling it forward at full speed, with the suit's thrusters also activated to maximum.
The invisible Iron Man suit sped towards the other side of the Pacific Ocean at a top speed of nearly Mach 8.
Los Angeles is 10,000 kilometers away from the Bincheng, but with the Iron Man suit's incredible speed enhanced by telekinesis, it only takes an hour to get there.
However, there is a sixteen-hour time difference between Bincheng and Los Angeles. Chen Mo left in the afternoon and arrived in Bincheng at around eight in the morning.
Upon reaching the vicinity of Bincheng, Chen Mo didn't even use J.A.R.V.I.S. for navigation. He grew up in this city and was naturally very familiar with it. Flying high in the sky, Chen Mo headed directly towards that familiar building.
"Clang!"
A crisp metallic clang rang out from nowhere on the empty rooftop, followed by a sudden ripple in the air. The ripple, like water, only lasted for a short time before disappearing. On the empty rooftop, a tall and upright young man in a black casual suit appeared.
After putting away his battle suit, Chen Mo glanced around at the rooftop where he used to sneak up and play as a child. Although it had only been a few months since he left, it felt like a lifetime had passed. After all, he had spent too much time in the movie world.
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Chen Mo straightened his clothes and then strode towards the entrance to the rooftop.
The iron gate leading to the rooftop was tightly closed, and a somewhat rusty padlock hung on the inside of the gate, locking up the passage connecting the building and the rooftop.
Chen Mo kept walking, extending his mental energy to envelop the rusty iron lock as he went. The next moment, the iron lock, which hadn't been opened for who knows how long, suddenly opened by itself and spun off from the iron ring.
The tightly closed iron gate creaked open automatically, and Chen Mo stepped inside, walking down the stairs. Behind him, the iron gate closed again, and the iron lock was put back on through the iron ring. Apart from a little rust scattered on the ground, no one knew that this iron gate, which had not been opened for so long, had ever been opened.
