Marvel's Umbrella

Chapter 102 Desert Adventure
Time went back to one day ago.

In the Middle East, to the west of the Kingdom of Shadamu, in the desert of West Asia.

An off-road vehicle is speeding through the desert.

Inside the car, a woman in white clothes and a plaid headscarf can be seen, as well as a man in black clothes and a headscarf.

A lot of guns and ammunition can be seen in the back seat of the car.

After a while, the vehicle stopped at an oasis. A man and a woman got out tiredly and began to replenish their water and eat.

In this silent atmosphere, the man finally spoke after a while.

"Ruth, this West Asian desert is too big. We must get more accurate information."

Ruth's eyes dimmed for a moment, but she shook her head firmly.

"Jack, the informant is dead. There is no more accurate target."

"But if we keep looking like this, we may not be able to find Elina even if we find her until next year."

“If you can’t find it next year, then find it the year after, or even ten years later, or a hundred years later.

I must find my sister!"

"But what if Elina is already dead?"

Hearing this, a trace of sadness flashed in Ruth's eyes.

"Then let those human traffickers be buried with my sister!"

Seeing that the other party was so determined, Jack didn't know what to say.

After a while, the two of them finished their rest and got into the car.

But the car didn't start right away.

Ruth, who was sitting in the main driver's seat, suddenly whispered, "Jack, if you want to give up, you can go back first.

I can find it by myself.”

Upon hearing this, Jack immediately shook his head and looked at Ruth with deep affection.

"No, your sister is my sister. There's no way I'll give up on her."

After saying this, he also grabbed Ruth's little hand.

Ruth was immediately moved by the other party's affectionate words and slowly leaned towards the other party's lips.

Just when the two were about to kiss, they suddenly heard the sound of a car engine outside.

So the two of them immediately separated and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

However, they were in an oasis at the moment, surrounded by trees and tall grass, so they couldn't see what was happening outside at all.

At this time, Jack suddenly said: "Maybe it's those human traffickers. They also need to replenish water sources. It's impossible for them to stay in the desert forever."

Hearing this analysis, Ruth immediately nodded excitedly.

"Correct."

Soon, the two men grabbed their weapons and ammunition and climbed up the tree, waiting for the other party to appear.

After a while, an ordinary-looking convertible SUV drove over.

There were only two men in grey cloaks and face scarves, and the back seat of the car was filled with buckets. It looked very ordinary and normal.

This immediately caused a look of disappointment to appear in Ruth's eyes.

Jack was a little excited, and whispered in Ruth's ear, "They are the only ones who need to fetch so much water, and they look very familiar with this place, and they have obviously been here for more than a day or two.

They must be from some organization, maybe the ones who kidnapped Alina."

These words immediately cheered Ruth up again.

After a while, the two people below fetched water and drove away.

After a while, Rose and Jack drove far behind each other.

There are not many roads in this desert, so just follow far behind.

But even if he followed from a distance, there was still a possibility of being discovered, so Jack stretched out his hands.

As a transparent energy wave appeared, the car immediately merged with its surroundings. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to find the car at all.

His superpower is light refraction, which can deflect surrounding light and achieve an effect similar to invisibility.

He used this ability just now to prevent others from discovering their car.

Ten minutes later, the vehicle in front suddenly left the road and entered the desert. Seeing this, Ruth immediately followed.

After a few minutes, the vehicle in front disappeared behind a hill.

When they crossed the hillside, they saw a dilapidated house surrounded by barbed wire, with several off-road vehicles parked outside the house.

As for the two people before, they have disappeared and are probably gone into the house.

Seeing the lonely house, Ruth was disappointed again.

“How many people can live in this shabby house?”

Jack's eyes lit up and he took hold of Ruth's hand.

"There must be something wrong here. Those two people just received so much water. They definitely can't finish it. This means there must be a base underneath."

"They took so much water, maybe they were going to drink it for a longer time."

"That's even more problematic. Why would they stay in this place in the middle of nowhere for so long?"

With Jack's persuasion, Ruth barely regained her confidence, so the two got out of the car and began to walk slowly towards the dilapidated house.

But after walking for a while, Jack grabbed Ruth's hand.

“There are cameras, and quite a few of them.”

Following Jack's finger, Rose saw several cameras placed on the wire mesh and her expression became serious.

Various cameras can also be seen in other directions of the barbed wire.

These cameras monitor everything around them in almost all directions without any blind spots.

If it weren't for Jack's super powers, they would have been discovered long ago.

Walking slowly and carefully, the two approached the barbed wire, and then Ruth stepped forward and broke the chain on the door with her hands.

Judging from her strength, she is obviously not an ordinary person.

When the two entered the dilapidated house, they were stunned for a moment.

Because there was no one inside.

The two people who had just fetched water disappeared.

Jack took Rose's hand and pointed down.

"They went to the underground base."

Ruth nodded and walked to the door. Just as she was about to open it with her hand, she was stopped by Jack.

"No, if there is a camera inside, they will definitely find us if you open the door like this."

"Then how do we get in?"

"If there is an underground base, there must be ventilation ducts, otherwise the people below would have suffocated to death. Let's go in through the ventilation ducts."

"it is good."

After a while, the two found a ventilation duct next to the dilapidated house.

So Ruth pried open the railing with her bare hands, and the two of them climbed in smoothly.

After climbing down carefully all the way, I don’t know how long it took before I finally reached the bottom.

Once here, the two of them are at risk of being exposed at any time.

So they stopped talking and communicated using sign language.

Jack gestured to follow me and started climbing ahead.

After climbing for a while, they finally heard the voices of several people talking.

"Hurry up, Doctor, let's finish burning it before we go over."

"Oh, I don't want to do this job anymore. There are endless corpses to burn every day. It's really unbearable."

"Shh, keep your voice down. If you don't want to do it, just wait to be burned."

"We have dealt with so many corpses this month, and they are becoming more and more horrifying."

"I heard that the experiment is about to succeed. Then we will be relieved."

"If the experiment is successful, can we become like those people?"
