Chapter 460: Johnson

"Da da da da!" The sound of gunfire continued, and the bullets from the automatic rifle kept hitting Shanshan.

However, the flesh-tearing bullets were completely useless to Shanshan and slid directly into her body along her octopus tentacles.

"Swish!" Shanshan instantly appeared behind a task force member, his swollen body suddenly opened up and swallowed him up amid his screams.

The task force seemed to have various ways to deal with various special anomalies. When an armored vehicle carrying a radar drove in, Shanshan's teleportation ability began to become intermittent.

But soon, Charles appeared at the bottom of the armored vehicle. With a roar, seven or eight tentacles lifted the entire armored vehicle and threw it against the wall.

Without the constraints of the machine, Shanshan's abilities were fully utilized, and no one could restrain her abilities anymore.

After a while, in front of Charles was a group of dispatch team members tied up by tentacles.

Charles walked up to Parker who was twisting his body and looked at him. "Let's get someone who can really speak up. I don't want to be treated perfunctorily a second time."

Parker, his body covered in slime, stood up with extreme anger in his eyes.

He never imagined that these people from other islands who came and went would be such a big trouble.

Looking at Charles who was so close, his hand reached for his waist, but in the end he did nothing. He slowly stood up and quickly left along the straight corridor.

The other party didn't let Charles wait too long. Soon three guys in suits walked up to Charles.

"Snap!" A black box in a man's hand opened, revealing a laptop computer. The 15-inch screen showed a bald old man with age spots on his face.

"I am the commander-in-chief of the task force. You can call me Johnson. Your pet may be powerful, but don't forget that your others are in my hands. If we really fight, it will not benefit anyone." The old man said to Charles in a tough attitude.

Charles showed a trace of disdain on his face. Just now, these guys used electric shocks directly, but now they know they are in big trouble and have started negotiations.

"I'm not his pet, I'm his daughter." Shanshan floated over and corrected the other party's mistake.

Johnson behind the screen was stunned. He looked at Charles with shock in his eyes, "You...what the hell are you?"

Not only him, but the three guys who had sent him there also had fear on their faces. They seemed to imagine Charles to be a monster even more terrifying than Winky.

Charles did not clarify anything, perhaps this misunderstanding would be more beneficial to the subsequent negotiations.

"If you don't want me to know your origins, I don't care at all. You don't have to tell me. I just want to find the key."

"What key?" Johnson recovered a little from his shock.

"A giant classical key that is several hundred meters long. This key was delivered to your island a long time ago."

Johnson frowned and thought for a while before shaking his head. "Sorry, we don't have any giant keys on our island."

"No?" Looking at Johnson on the computer screen, Charles immediately expressed his doubt.

"Since there is no key on this island, where was it sent? Your foundation's facilities and members are so well preserved, so there should be previous records, right?"

"The key is so big, no matter who stole it or transported it away on an aircraft carrier, it must have been recorded."

Charles' face became very ugly. If what he said was true, it meant that the clue that was obtained with great difficulty was broken again.

"Charles, everything that happened before was a misunderstanding. Since you are unwilling to accept my questioning, you can take your people away now. We will not stop you."

After hearing Johnson's words to drive them away, Charles didn't want to leave so easily. He stared at the screen in front of him and said, "You can let us go, but I need to search the entire island. If I really can't find it, I will leave immediately."

"Absolutely not!" Johnson answered firmly.

"I will never allow a monster to enter our shelter and threaten the lives of the islanders!"

"Don't think we will surrender! If you really want to do this, not only will your subordinates be executed immediately, but we will also mobilize all the members of Task Force 68 to carry out a suicide attack on you."

"We have calculated your abilities. Your skin may be able to defend against ordinary bullets, but what about white phosphorus incendiary bombs? What about depleted uranium armor-piercing bombs? The commander of Task Force 68 will never be threatened by a monster!"

As the other party continued to speak, dozens of tanks and armored vehicles had surrounded the entire square.

The fully armed black-clad task force members hid behind these bunkers, aiming their guns at Charles.

Charles' sixth sense of crisis made him realize that the other party was not just talking. The safety of the gun was on, and the bullet would be fired as long as the trigger was pulled slightly.

Charles looked at Johnson on the screen. He didn't know whether these guys were from the Foundation, but their desperate attitude was quite similar to that of the Foundation.

"Are we really leaving like this?" Charles immediately rejected this decision. It was so hard to find this place, so what would it mean to just leave like that

When Shanshan saw the tanks in the distance, his eyes were full of curiosity and he couldn't help but drift over, but was caught by Charles.

Charles thought about it and suddenly changed the subject, saying to Johnson on the screen: "Do all the people on your island live in this miserable underground?"

Johnson frowned slightly, seeming a little unhappy, but he still answered Charles' question.

"It's just a shelter below the city. We can go up there once the crisis is over and we can get back up there."

"Really? Your only wish is to live in this dark seabed? Have you forgotten all the beauty of the surface?"

Charles reached out and snatched the tablet computer. "That key is the key to the surface. As long as you help me find that key, then by then, all the people on Island 68 can return to the land where their ancestors lived. There will be no dangers and no monsters. There will be as much land as you want on an island as big as the ocean."

Charles' voice continued to echo in the square, and the members of the task force communicated quickly with their eyes.

That's right, Charles wanted to use the surface to lure these people to help him. Since they are all from the foundation, they must know about the surface in the past.

Charles saw Johnson on the screen was stunned for a long time, he seemed to be thinking about something.

The laptop gradually became hot and the cooling fan started to blow.
