Chapter XVII: Reaching an Agreement
"Thirty or fifty? There are more than a hundred mutants under the age of fourteen that we have taken in now, most of them are children who are not very powerful, or have no combat use, they have been screened out by various mutant forces, and no one wants them.
There are about seventy teenagers over the age of fourteen and under twenty who have little self-survival skills, but there are now about three or four hundred adult mutants of all stripes who have been rescued from various laboratories and human traffickers.
They were the most direct victims of the war, weak and bizarre, a young man with an octopus tentacle beard whose abilities only made soda better, but he was still persecuted and captured, and the Brotherhood attacked the prison where he was held, but did not take him away because his abilities could not be used in battle. ”
Buffett knows a little about these strange people under him, but few of these people choose combat careers, and most of them have joined the protection program and lived a civilian life with hidden identities.
And those mutants with a clearly different appearance are doing all kinds of work in various departments of Oranides, some of which are related to their abilities- For example, the guy who can make the soda taste better is bartending in the bar in the common room, his special cocktails are quite popular, I heard that he has found a normal girl as a girlfriend, and there are also people who do jobs that have nothing to do with their abilities, a guy with a long mouth and a geoduck like a guy whose saliva can be turned into glue is a driver in the base's internal transport team.
"There are so many mutants?"
Wolverine was dumbfounded, he felt that there were a lot of mutants in the school, and Magneto had hundreds of people entangled in it, so he called it a mutant army, but he didn't expect that there were so many mutants wandering around, and they were all ordinary people with no combat effectiveness, which was never mentioned in the academy, and at this moment his trust in the professor was really shaken, because he knew that the professor could sense every mutant in the world, but he never mentioned the condition of these people, or even mentioned these people。
"Of course, the rogue ruffians that Magneto recruited were some wandering mutants living in the sewers of New Yorktown, but I really didn't expect these strange little groups to have the courage to join Magneto as thugs in the sewers of New York. ”
Buffyment had a teasing expression, he only learned from the intelligence officer's report that he knew that there was such an interesting group of guys on his turf - in his mind that New York City was his turf, which showed how low-key these people were.
"Hellfire have a stake in you, too, and have you always admired them, or are you allies?"
Wolverine doesn't think that Oranides is controlled by hellfire, the minotaur in front of him is wild and boundless, and his strength is almost unrivaled, and he can't think of anyone who can control him.
"How come, the sirens have a say in hellfire after Oranides has gained a foothold, and they have a say in hellfire with our momentum, those people want to establish mutants' own cities and even countries on the ground, and a series of plans have been made for this, only the siren's plan is the most feasible, and it will not touch the interests of all parties, so, until this plan succeeds or fails, she represents Hellfire. ”
Buffett laughed and touched his horns, believing that as long as the sirens were given enough support, the Hellfire Club would be in his pocket sooner or later.
Auroro and the sirens on one side had already shaken hands, each took champagne and was clinking glasses, and it seemed that the conversation was pleasant.
"Be careful when fighting, since Qin is here, you have to work hard, although I don't know you very well, but it's all in this New York City, I wish you a victory, rest assured at home, no one can do anything about X Academy." ”
The minotaur straightened his chest, stretched out his hand to make a guide shape, and returned to the battlefield of the two ladies with Wolverine, the smoke of gunpowder cleared, and the two beautiful women with their own outstanding demeanors smiled like flowers, and they were intimate with each other, and they couldn't see that they were still tense just now and were about to fight.
After a little gossip, Stormgirl and Wolverine left in a hurry, and with them left a large group of base guards, who will be in charge of the security of the X Academy for the time being, and later, Daredevil will take Red Flash Butterfly and Crimson Tiger to the Academy, and they will protect the rear of the X-Men in this battle.
"Looks like you've won a big game?"
Buffett is holding a tablet - this thing has been studied early, almost at the same time as the smartphone, which makes Buffyment very uncomfortable, as if once a certain point is detonated. There will be a burst of technology, without warning—compared to the author's own planning briefing, he has to properly arrange the next work of the fire cloud combination.
"No, I only got 30% of the shares of X Academy, and I originally wanted to buy that manor and provide a new address to build a comprehensive training base, but the woman refused, so she even agreed to outsource part of their laboratory to us, which is really inexplicable insistence.
We're going to be responsible for the security of the academy from now on, and she's given us an area, hell, the manor is two hundred and forty-seven acres, about one square kilometer, almost a hundred hectares, damn rich people......"
The siren angrily drained what little champagne he had left, and slammed his glass on the coffee table.
"What? I didn't think the place was that big, or was I bad at math and I was looking at the wrong area?"
Buffett's teeth are about to fall out, this area is larger than some small towns in China, how many people are in the town, how many people are on X Academy, this is really ...... rich people!
"The manor where X Academy is located was originally the ancestral property of Professor X, and later he donated this place to become Xavier School for the Gifted Youth, the area of the school is about 5,000 square meters, which is also quite large, but most of it is a research institution, and there are some ability training grounds, which occupy a large area.
However, the surrounding square kilometers of land are all the private property of the academy, there are some farms on it, there are small factories, and even a small town of more than 300 households, that town is completely the property of X Academy, and even the police in the town are appointed by professors, but there is not a single mutant in it, what a hypocritical old man.
When I asked about it, Auroro didn't know what to say, and she seemed a little shaken. ”
