Chapter 545: I will pledge allegiance to you!

The other method Yang Le mentioned was naturally to use telepathic ability to directly download these things to Frank Castle.

This kind of thing naturally requires a Martian to take action. This is their specialty. However, Yang Le couldn't just transform into a Martian here. Without X-Gene helping to maintain Valeria's living environment, she would definitely get frostbite.

But the problem was easily solved. X-Gene snapped his fingers, and everyone returned to the place where the chaotic battle had started. One of the clones then transformed into a Martian, perfectly solving the issue.

"I see."

Originally, when a pile of memories he had never seen suddenly appeared in his brain, Frank Castle was startled. But the rage burning in his heart quickly allowed him to recover from other emotions and swiftly absorb those unfamiliar memories.

Frank Castle's heart was filled with mixed emotions for a moment. He hadn't expected such a tortuous turn of events to occur while he was unconscious. His original enemy had become the source of his power. The universe was so complex, with countless gods and ghosts. Humans were indeed as insignificant as grains of sand.

Yang Le silently watched Frank Castle, who had fallen into contemplation. When he downloaded everything that had happened to the other party, he concealed some unnecessary details to avoid trouble. However, he still told him about things including OAA.

After all, Yang Le's initial purpose was to get some Lantern Corps members as subordinates.

If it were just matters on Earth, then it wouldn't matter who he found as a partner. Randomly finding a few mutants would be fine. But in Marvel, there are quite a few extraterrestrial visitors. In comparison, the advantage of Lantern Corps members became apparent.

After all, the original setting of Lantern Corps members was a group of space bums plus space cops. Their combat power in space is even much stronger than when they are under the atmosphere. For example, their incredible interstellar travel ability, Yang Le didn't even have a few alien heroes that could compare.

Moreover, Lantern Corps members are easy to mass produce. As long as Yang Le researched a bit and grasped the trick, he could create a large number of them. Their combat power is still very stable, and there's even a possibility of super powerful beings appearing. They are truly the best helpers he could currently obtain.

"To be honest, my brain is very messed up right now," Frank Castle finally made an opening after a brief silence. He lowered his head, looked at the Red Lantern ring on his left hand, and continued.

"I also don't know if this counts as revenge. After all, Ross didn't actually die, did he? Is my understanding correct?"

"At least in my opinion, he's physically dead," Valeria said, putting her hands in her pockets. "But I'm just a newbie when it comes to the Emotional Spectrum, so I won't interject too much."

"Do you know, Frank Castle?" Yang Le, who had transformed into a Martian, stretched out a finger. After a moment of distortion, that finger transformed into Ross's appearance. "In this world, there is a concept of a soul. Normally speaking, you can only kill Ross's physical body. You have no way to deal with his soul."

Yang Le's finger, which had turned into Ross, split apart from the middle, just like the method Frank Castle had used to kill Ross before. But quickly, a grayish-white Ross emerged from the crack in the middle.

"For a villain like him, his soul is a hot commodity in Hell. I know you definitely wouldn't be satisfied with just killing Ross's physical body, but at that time, you were exhausted and had no method to go to Hell and ravage his soul."

Frank Castle nodded slightly. Just like Yang Le said, if he had known Ross would still have a soul, he would have definitely broken into Hell to seize Ross's soul back and then personally torture his soul.

"Therefore, I thought of this method, which can both complete my plan and save your life. It can even let Ross fall into your hands forever, and you can permanently enslave him. Such a three-pronged plan is rare."

Yang Le generously laid his conspiracy out on the table. Giving gifts for no reason is either treacherous or thieving. There's no free lunch in the world. Frank Castle definitely understood this. Since that was the case, it was better to just say everything and save the other party from suspicion.

"You are very honest, Mr. Yang," Frank Castle said, spreading out his palm. "I was originally just a thief who luckily obtained power that didn't belong to me, but you are still willing to lend it to me so I can complete my revenge. Logically speaking, you could just kill me and take the ring back, but you didn't."

'Don't talk like a typical Chinese web novel,' Yang Le couldn't help but complain in his heart. Killing people to seize treasures and wiping out entire families is something you only see in web novels. If someone really did that, they would definitely have an antisocial personality.

Didn't you see that even though Frank Castle is so full of anger, he didn't go after Ross's child Betty? General Ross, as a strong contender for presidential candidate, although the public might not be clear about Hyperion's matter, the fact that he has a daughter is common knowledge.

Yang Le didn't believe Frank Castle didn't know, but he still didn't vent his rage on her. This is what set him apart from ordinary humans.

"I will pledge allegiance to you," Frank Castle suddenly made an opening. "I can't think of any other method to repay you. The only thing I still have now is this life. I will shed the last drop of blood for your order."

Yang Le didn't say anything like, "You've been out of blood for a while now," to spoil the mood. At this time, he was very happy. He hadn't expected things to be so simple. He hadn't even made an opening, and everything was resolved.

In fact, the reason for Frank Castle's sudden pledge wasn't just to repay Yang Le. He was also searching for a meaning to live. The rage in his heart had been burning, but he didn't know what else he could do.

Take off the ring and die? Knowing that there was still a soul after human death, Frank Castle no longer wanted to choose such a self-destructive answer. Since this ring had chosen him, there must be a reason. His rage was still useful. He couldn't let his family see his cowardly side.

They would worry.

Valeria saw that Yang Le had achieved his purpose and prepared to leave. Knowing that she hadn't made an opening to resign yet, Yang Le took the lead and made an opening.

"Wait a moment, Valeria. Regarding the research of the Lantern Ring, I need your help."

"Please, Happy," Valeria rolled her eyes at the black-hearted capitalist who wanted to make her work for free. "Where do I have time? I still have a pile of business to do. The experiment I'm working on isn't finished yet, and Little Rich still needs me to watch over him. Otherwise, in a few days, I might be meeting the next generation of the Richards family."

Holding back from complaining about Valeria treating her brother like a Teddy bear, Yang Le just coughed lightly. The **Upgrade** clone on the side obediently handed over a USB drive-style thing.

"This USB drive records all the image of everything that just happened. I remember you said you wanted to see it, right, Valeria?"

"You're really hateful, Yang Le!"
