Chapter 018: Milord?

Wang Bo entered the Falcone family's estate and proceeded along the road, without discovering any hidden sentries or guards along the way.

This manor was still empty.

All the heavy firepower had been dismantled, and the entire estate was silent.

Like an empty tomb.

Wang Bo walked along the broad road, a creeping unease in his heart. He couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about this estate, as if something dreadful was brewing.

And once this thing leaps out, it will surely cause an earth-shattering shock.

Wang Bo grew even more cautious, his vigilance raised to the highest level. He looked around, his ears twitching; no sound within a thousand meters could escape his hearing.

But Wang Boshang found nothing, heard nothing at all.

This deathly stillness made Wang Bo's hair stand on end. An invisible aura enveloped the entire manor, causing his heart to pound like a drum.

Danger, danger, danger!

Wang Bo's sixth sense was frantically warning him that this place was by no means ordinary—it was a place of great peril.

At this moment, Wang Bo finally understood that something terrible must have happened to the Falcone family; otherwise, this manor could not have turned into what it was now.

The stronger one's power, the keener one's sixth sense, and the more one can perceive this terrifying aura of danger.

Wang Bo's heart pounded wildly. Reason told him he should turn and run, but for Gwen Stacy's sake, he could not flee. If he ran away, Gwen Stacy might truly be doomed.

More than ten minutes later, Wang Bo walked the long path and arrived at the mansion of the estate.

The mansion's door was left ajar, as if inviting you into a trap.

Wang Bo took a deep breath, and the Ripple Qigong stirred layers of ripples in his blood, like the power of sunlight, continuously enhancing his strength.

This feeling of constantly growing stronger gave Wang Bo more confidence.

He grew stronger with every passing second.

So he pushed open the half-closed door and stepped inside, but the moment Wang Bo entered the mansion, a strange feeling washed over him.

Wang Bo always felt as if he had passed through a thin membrane.

But when he looked back, he found nothing.

But Wang Bo kept this feeling in mind; he knew it was certainly not an illusion.

When Wang Bo walked through the corridor and reached the mansion's hall, he immediately saw Carmine Falcone sitting on the sofa.

This Gotham City mob boss, dressed in a black suit with his hair meticulously combed, had made himself look presentable, if only superficially. He sat upright on the sofa, crossed his legs, and folded his hands on his lap.

Wang Bo looked at Carmine Falcone's sitting posture and couldn't help but think of a saying.

His spirit swallows ten thousand miles, like a tiger!

There is no doubt that Carmine Falcone now radiates dominance in full force. Even his mere sitting posture exerts immense pressure on those around him. This overbearing aura of self-assured supremacy, combined with his status, is enough to completely crush the courage of an ordinary person.

But Wang Bo didn't care, because no matter how powerful the aura of this well-connected man was, he was ultimately just an ordinary person.

But what surprised Wang Bo was that this mafia boss's eyes seemed off.

He looked at Wang Bo, whose gaze was extremely gloomy, yet within this gloominess lay a sense of deathly stillness.

Carmine Falcone stared at Wang Bo with a blank expression, his eyes unblinking.

On either side of him stood one person.

Standing on the left was Leonardo, but at this moment his face was filled with a strange smile, a smile that made people feel very uncomfortable.

What made Wang Bo even more uncomfortable was the aura emanating from Leonardo.

It was a chill, dark aura.

Wang Bo shifted his gaze to the right, where the bald Zsasz stood at Carmine Falcone's right side.

His full name is Victor Zsasz, a member of the Falcone family and also one of Batman's adversaries, a ruthless serial killer.

As a killer, his knife skills were second to none; even when surrounded by the police, he could escape unscathed. This fiend's greatest traits were being "utterly reckless" and "quite clever" at the same time. He could turn anything into a murder weapon, but when it was time to be arrogant, he would be arrogant, and naturally, he would be caught by the great hero.

However, as an enforcer for the Falcone family, he generally does not appear within the Falcone family.

Because he was a knife hidden in the shadows, specifically tasked with handling dirty work that couldn't see the light of day.

However, according to Wang Bo's understanding, this Zas was also a master of hand-to-hand combat; he once trained for 16 hours a day.

This also meant that he was an absolute master within the Falcone family.

In the Falcone family, no one can escape his pursuit.

Behind these three people stood four burly men, each one like a fitness coach in a gym, with bulging muscles and explosive physiques.

But their muscles were not for show.

Each of them could easily throw punches weighing hundreds of pounds, easily breaking the bones of an ordinary person.

Moreover, each of them has trained in various martial arts and is absolutely an expert in combat.

A person can easily knock down over a dozen ordinary people without any problem.

But relying on these to capture Spider-Gwen is absolutely a pipe dream.

If that's the case, why did Spider-Gwen fall into the hands of these people?

Just as Wang Bo was utterly perplexed, he suddenly noticed a problem: when he entered the Falcone estate, he had heard the footsteps of eight people.

But now, only seven people appeared before him.

"Where is the other person? Where is he?"

Wang Bo asked.

Leonardo was quite surprised, his smile growing even more strange and ferocious. "I didn't expect you to know about the master. If you surrender, I can take you to see him!"

"Your Excellency?"

Wang Bo was taken aback and looked at Carmine Falcone, but the other man showed no reaction.

"Interesting, Leonardo. You address someone else as 'lord' right in front of Falcone, and Falcone doesn't even react. It seems the lord behind you is no ordinary figure."

Leonardo burst out laughing, showing no regard for Carmine Falcone's dignity. "That's right, in the eyes of the Great One, Falcone is nothing. Only the Great One is the true ruler of Gotham City!"

"It seems that the reason you were able to catch Spider-Woman was also thanks to that lord?" Wang Bo asked curiously.

"Well, you'll find out soon enough."

Leonardo waved his hand, pointed at Wang Bo, and said, "Seize him."

The four explosively built men behind him moved instantly, like robots that had been electrified, charging at Wang Bo in perfect unison.
