Chapter 30 It's not accidental, it's inevitable

Chino fell into deep thought. Seeing Chino's hesitant expression, Gwen couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and her eyes slightly dimmed.

However, just as Gwen was secretly feeling hurt, Chino suddenly reached into his pocket, took out a blue ring, and said, "Tornado Ring. I believe this ability suits you best."

Gwen stared at the ring in Chino's hand, standing still for a moment without reacting.

Seeing her adorable expression, Chino smirked slightly and teased, "Should I put it on for you?"

Snapping back to reality, Gwen snatched the ring from his hand and huffed, "I don't need you to! Hmph!" Then, she dashed out the door.

Just as she was about to leave, she hesitated and stopped in her tracks.

Then, she turned around, ran back, planted a kiss on Chino's lips, and blushed deeply. "Don't overthink it. This is just a thank you," she said.

Without looking back, she ran away, while Chino stood there with a smile.

"Let's create another Ghost Spider with this ring and make a fortune."

As Gwen ran out of the mansion, she couldn't suppress her smile and slowly crouched down near the gate.

She carefully slid the ring onto her middle finger and admired it, grinning like a child who had just received their favorite toy.

"Hehe, I actually have a ring now," Gwen murmured to herself, showing no intention of taking it off.

After a while, she snapped out of her daze as if waking from a dream. She looked around and, realizing no one had noticed her, quickly wiped the joyous expression from her face. Standing up, she composed herself and walked away calmly.

However, her light, bouncing steps betrayed her excitement.

Once Gwen had left, Frank emerged from around the corner with Blonsky and Banner. His usually cold face showed a hint of relief.

Banner sighed and said, "That reminded me of my time with Betty."

Blonsky, however, looked confused and asked, "What's so great about women? Strength is all that matters."

Neither Banner nor Frank bothered to respond. Frank simply said, "Let's go. The young master is waiting."

Yesterday, the young master had arranged for them to meet in the morning.

The three of them walked towards the mansion. Banner looked slightly melancholic, lost in memories of the past. Blonsky, on the other hand, had a firm expression, as if continuously reinforcing his pursuit of power. Frank remained calm, focused on meeting Chino as soon as possible.

"Young master, we have arrived."

Frank and the others entered the hall and saw Chino sitting on the sofa. They greeted him in unison. Chino waved his hand, signaling them to sit.

"Frank, how did the wine purchase go yesterday?"

"Young master, everything has been arranged. It should arrive this afternoon."

"What do you think about yesterday's battle?"

"Guns and cannons are useless against them. Master, do you think their appearance was a coincidence or something inevitable?"

Since Frank didn't possess any special abilities, Chino had sent him home the previous night to watch the battle unfold on television.

To those beings, human weapons were nothing more than toys.

Blonsky and Banner also turned to Chino.

"Their appearance is inevitable. In the future, more people like them will emerge."

Banner, now visibly agitated, retorted, "Impossible! I was an accident. How can so many Hulks appear in this world?!"

His voice grew sharp with frustration, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his face was filled with shock.

As he thought about the future of Earth, a world filled with Hulk-like monsters, his emotions surged even further. His body began turning green.

Before he could lose control, a large hand pressed him down to the ground—it was the despised Blonsky.

"Calm down, Banner! Don't lose it here!" Blonsky commanded.

"Hulk..."

Banner... no, Hulk had emerged, but suddenly, his gaze locked onto a pair of crimson-red eyes.

"Hulk, be quiet. My lover is sleeping."

The atmosphere tensed, and for the first time, fear flickered in Hulk's eyes. Under that blood-red gaze, he actually stepped back.

Banner gasped, his face drenched in sweat. This was the first time he had managed to control Hulk's transformation without causing destruction.

Chino watched the scene in silence.

Frank wore a grim expression. He had not expected to bring back two monsters last night, so he had arranged for them to stay in the adjacent room.

The hall fell silent, with only the sound of Banner's heavy breathing echoing in the air. After a while, Banner gradually calmed down and, looking exhausted, slumped onto the ground.

"I'm sorry. I got too worked up."

"It's not a problem."

Chino turned to Frank with a serious expression and said, "As I mentioned, their appearance is not a coincidence but an inevitability. I won't say much about the Hulk, but there are definitely many people out there with various superpowers."

"Frank, do you wish to gain extraordinary power?"

Frank remained silent for a moment before answering, "Whether now or later, I believe I already have the strength to protect my family."

Chino waved his hand, and a portal appeared in the center of the room.

"Come with me."

Without a word, Frank followed, and Blonsky glanced at Banner before stepping inside.

Banner hesitated, worried that it might be a trap. But as the portal began to slowly close, he clenched his teeth and ran inside just before it vanished.

When Banner opened his eyes, he found himself in a dark palace.

There was no one in front of him. Where had they gone?

Is this a trap to capture me?!

Shocked, he instinctively took a defensive stance.

"Banner, what are you doing?"

Blonsky's voice came from behind.

Turning around, he saw Chino, Frank, and Blonsky all looking at him in confusion.

Clearing his throat, Banner said, "Ahem... I was just demonstrating some Chinese martial arts."

"Your Majesty, you've brought a fool here."

Xi looked on, unable to comprehend which unlucky demon had been forced to sign a contract with such a man.

"Xi, have all the demons I arranged for arrived?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Xi's expression grew serious.

Beneath Xi's throne of black metal, an open square was filled with elite battle demons of various shapes and sizes.

Some were colossal, with muscles like steel and bodies covered in tough, glistening scales. Others had bat-like wings, with feathers as sharp as blades. Some had demonic heads, eyes burning with fire, and mouths spewing black smoke.

"Your Majesty, as per your command, all elite warriors of the battle demon clan are assembled!"

With that, Xi knelt on one knee.
