Clues of Mind Reading

As Mephisto departed, Pruke's appearance began to change, slowly transforming from Demon back into a human. Apart from Mephisto, it was likely that no one could discover his true identity.

With a "whoosh!" sound, a ball of flame suddenly surged from Pruke's chest the next moment. It was not the power of Demon flames, but a holy power of flames. In fact, the shape of a cross could be faintly seen within the flames.

Yes, the flames that are now burning are Pruke's original trump card. Before Pruke was human, this trump card naturally didn't react. After Pruke became Demon, Mephisto was still here, and the cross didn't react either. Until now, Mephisto has left, leaving only Pruke, and the cross has begun to erupt. It can only be said that the cross is a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong!

With a "poof!" sound, Pruke never expected that he would be tricked by his own trump card. The Holy Light flames instantly burned a hole in his chest.

"Shit!" Pruke cursed under his breath, his Demon power erupting and clashing with the power of the cross.

Whether it was Mephisto's intention or the cross was truly a powerful trump card, the power of the Demon and the power of the Holy Light clashed continuously until Pruke's power was completely exhausted, at which point the cross on Pruke's chest turned to dust and drifted to the ground.

"Damn it!" Pruke cursed again, looking at the dust scattered on the ground. After a while, he recovered, looked towards the door, pressed the same button, and ordered, "Come in, everyone. Oh, and remember to take down all the tools collected by the Holy See. Don't bring them in!"

It must be said that Pruke was quite vigilant and quick-witted. If he hadn't spoken up, and a bunch of the Holy See supernatural abilities had stormed in and accidentally killed him, that would have been truly ridiculous...

"Find 100,000 scapegoats, then inform me... You don't need to investigate Mephisto's information anymore. Just do what I told you to do first. Oh, and arrange for me to go to the Doomsday Base to erase all clues about me and this operation!" Upon seeing his subordinates enter, Pruke directly gave them his orders. The subordinates looked at each other, but ultimately obeyed and carried out their mission.

With a "whoosh," as Pruke's men left, a surge of power emanated from Pruke, quietly attaching itself to his men before disappearing.

It must be said that Pruke's caution was indeed justified, because on the other side, after Robet Devastation the Joker Mobile that had lost its power, he returned to Tony Stark's side with Steve, Bucky, and others.

If it were just Mephisto making an appearance, Robet wouldn't go to Tony Stark's side. Instead, he planned to go see Constantine, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, to see if he could find any information about Mephisto and Hell.

But this time, it wasn't just Mephisto who made the move; there was also an unknown high-ranking human official with formidable firepower. If they weren't dealt with, things would get complicated the next time they encountered them...

Robet wasn't concerned about the higher-ups targeting him. The main issue was that every battle couldn't be controlled in uninhabited areas. Therefore, even though he had already used Mephisto to outmaneuver the mastermind, Robet still wanted to find out who this guy was.

Every step leaves a trace, especially when it involves using rare resources like fighter jets. This is not something that can be easily concealed by superhumans. Tony Stark should be able to find some clues.

"So? Have you found anything out?" Soon, at Tony Stark's house, Robet asked Tony Stark directly.

This was something that not only Robet couldn't accept, but Tony Stark and the others couldn't accept either. It was relatively fortunate that Robet intervened this time, because Robet could have completely ignored these fighter jets. But it was a different story for Tony Stark and the others. If Tony Stark and the others had encountered such a betrayal while carrying out missions or dealing with supernatural events, they probably wouldn't have survived!

Therefore, Tony Stark immediately began investigating the origins of these fighter jets. Such jets must have some connection with the military, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to copy or build them!

Therefore, after some investigation, Pruke's name came to Tony Stark's attention. Tony Stark immediately ordered Jarvis to conduct an in-depth investigation, only to learn that Pruke had completely disappeared...

It's important to understand that Pruke was a lieutenant general in the army, and several of his immediate family members held high-ranking positions in the military. While his whereabouts might be difficult to trace, he certainly wouldn't disappear completely, because his relatives were also searching for him...

Now, all news of Pruke has completely disappeared. Either Pruke is dead, or Pruke knows he is about to be discovered and has gone into hiding, probably in a secluded place with only one line of communication!

"The investigation is complete, but the man has vanished. He might be hiding..." Tony Stark sighed helplessly at Robet and said in a low voice, "That guy's name is Pruke, he's with the military. Of course, now it's not just us who have discovered his identity, some other people have too, but they haven't been able to find Pruke either. He seems to have completely disappeared!"

"Completely out of contact?" Robet raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He thought of the time he mentioned Mephisto's name, but Robet couldn't be sure whether Pruke had simply gone into hiding or if Mephisto had actually taken action against Pruke.

"Check if there are any other people who have also disappeared..." Robet asked Tony Stark, turning to him with these thoughts.

"Hmm? Okay!" Tony Stark didn't understand Robet's meaning, but he quickly ordered Jarvis to start the investigation, while Robet provided an explanation for the peculiarity of Mephisto's name.

"So, you revealed that guy's name to bait people?" A hint of surprise flashed in Tony Stark and Steve's eyes. They hadn't expected that the characteristics of supernatural abilities could be applied in this way. They seemed to realize that they should enhance their divergent thinking and stop viewing supernatural abilities with old perspectives.

"Not bad, but it seems like it failed? Was it because there wasn't enough time and Mephisto only found Pruke, or did that guy really run away on his own?" Robet slowly shook his head and said hesitantly.

"Well, actually I can help find the target. As long as something exists, it will leave a trace. No one can completely disappear..." Just as Robet finished speaking, Morbius, who had been almost invisible to the side, weakly raised his hand and spoke up as he looked at Robet and the others who were discussing.

Morbius has been living with Tony Stark for a long time. Tony Stark still doesn't understand why he became Scientific Side Vampire, but Tony Stark has completely solved Morbius's blood-drinking problem. After undergoing a series of modifications by Tony Stark, Morbius has successfully become a Vampire who doesn't need to drink blood.

Morbius is also considered part of the Avengers roster, but his identity is more secretive, and since he still prefers to stay in the shadows, he has little presence.

Now, in order to demonstrate his value, or to repay Tony Stark for his help, Morbius stepped forward, after all, Vampire are also quite adept at tracking!

"Hmm? You have a way?" Tony Stark's eyes lit up when he heard Morbius speak up, and he quickly asked. If Morbius could find Pruke's trail, it would definitely be a good thing for them.

Not only will we no longer have to worry about Pruke Dark Hand behind our backs during future operations, but more importantly, it will serve as a warning to others!

Pruke wasn't the only one who dared to secretly intervene during the Avengers' operation. If the Avengers didn't demonstrate their absolute power this time, who knows how many others would join in to kick them when they're down next time...

"Okay, but I need to go to the place where Pruke lived first..." Morbius nodded at Tony Stark. His abilities still had some limitations, and he needed Tony Stark's help.

"No problem, we can set off now. After Pruke disappeared, his lineage didn't disappear..." Tony Stark nodded and quickly agreed.

"So Tracking Magic isn't very useful right now, otherwise it would be... Hmm? No, I haven't seen Pruke, so Tracking Magic Tracking Magic wouldn't work. But if I saw Pruke's men, it seems like I could use Mind Reading to find Pruke's location!" Robet thought to himself as he listened to Tony Stark and Morbius's conversation.

"Let's go together. I have some methods I can use to see if we can find Pruke's location..." With that thought, Robet looked at Tony Stark and said.

"Alright, let's go together!" Tony Stark didn't hesitate at all. He put on his Mecha and led Robet and the others toward the military base where Pruke was located.

To be honest, Tony Stark was also curious whether there was a way to completely hide someone from being discovered. If so, could this be the method Howard Stark used?

Pruke himself disappeared, which is one thing, but his men are still around. If Pruke really went into hiding, how did Pruke manage to resolve this loophole?

Soon, led by Tony Stark, the group arrived at a military base. This was not the place where Pruke had met Mephisto, but it was still Pruke's base. The reason Tony Stark found this place was because those fighter jets all took off from here!

"Who goes there?!" However, just as Robet and the others arrived at the base, a group of soldiers rushed out. Even though they recognized Tony Stark's Mecha in the sky, they still aimed their weapons at Tony Stark.

From the moment the fighter jets were dispatched, the base knew that someone was coming. In fact, Tony Stark's group wasn't the first to arrive; other forces also came to investigate, but they were all forcefully stopped.

"You can negotiate slowly. I'll go in and scout ahead with Morbius." Robet had no intention of wasting time dealing with these soldiers. His figure vanished from the spot. The soldiers below only vaguely saw a figure disappear, and they didn't even see Robet's trace. They thought it was just their imagination.

However, Morbius's next move made it clear to the soldiers. Although Morbius was also very fast, the soldiers still saw afterimages and immediately opened fire!

"Da da da da da!"

Soon, guns spitting fire began pouring bullets toward Morbius, but unfortunately, while the soldiers reacted quickly enough, their actual speed of action couldn't keep up.

Most of the bullets missed their targets, and a small number hit Morbius, but none of them caused Morbius any real damage.

In terms of the number of extraordinary powerhouses, Pruke's military base has far fewer than Hydra's. Of course, this may be related to Pruke's previous method of exchanging extraordinary power for the Holy See.

"Who are you looking for?" Robet asked after Morbius entered, glancing at the rapidly healing wounds on Morbius's body.

"Scent, traces, these can all help me find Pruke ..." Morbius didn't care about his injuries. To him, such injuries were no different from daily hair loss. He just wanted to find Pruke to prove himself.

"Alright, let's split up." Robet, his figure flashing and disappearing from the spot. Inside this base, there were indeed people, and in fact, the people inside were more powerful than those outside; some Super Soldier could even be seen.

But without a doubt, neither Robet nor Morbius took this level of enemy seriously!

With a "snap!" Robet appeared in front of a Super Soldier, grabbing the man's head with one hand and using Mind Reading to try and find Pruke's whereabouts.

However, even though Robet's strength has improved a lot, his Mind Reading hasn't changed much. Robet didn't succeed in finding Pruke's trail; he only obtained a memory that was useless to Robet.

Robet didn't think he'd succeed on his first try. He darted away, aiming at the next target. After switching targets several times, Robet's expression changed, because he saw what Pruke was instructing his men to do...
