Chapter 157 [USS Volgograd]
Tang Lang, Professor X Charles, Mora McTagg, Magneto Eric, the Beast Hank McCoy, Raven Darkholm, Wolverine Logan, Shockwave Alex Sams, and Sampon Cassidy, a total of nine people, took advantage of the night to travel all the way west.
Although it was getting dark, fortunately there was a soft moonlight.
The eyes of the people are not bad, but they can see clearly.
Wolverine Logan unleashed his six diamond spikes and walked in the lead.
The thorny bush touched Wolverine's diamond spike and snapped silently. This is how he silently cleared the way for the people in front of the head.
And when they walked, they did not speak.
After walking west for more than three hours, Mora McTag whispered to everyone to stop.
The destination has arrived.
It was also apparently under Soviet jurisdiction, on the shores of the Black Sea in the area of Crimea in present-day Ukraine.
Mora McTagg and the beast Hank McCoy pulled out a "combat search rubber boat" they had prepared from the grass and pushed it into the water.
-- The combat search and capture rubber boat is a tool used by the US Navy's special operations team when carrying out covert infiltration and withdrawal operations of light armed forces, and it is extremely convenient and safe.
Everyone boarded the dinghy and prepared to return to Turkey.
After everyone was seated, Hank the Beast was about to start the motor, but after looking at everyone, he suddenly stopped.
Charles asked, "What's wrong?" β
"Nine people...... No, you'd be overweight! The Combat Hunt Rubber Boat can only seat a maximum of eight people. Hank the Beast said helplessly.
Charles couldn't help but say, "It can't be such a coincidence." The Turks sent us here with their boats, can't they prepare two rubber boats? β
"My mistake. I'm sorry, I'm sorry everyone. It's me who didn't arrange ......."
In the moonlight, CIA agent Mora McTagg's face was reddened.
"It doesn't matter if there is one more person or one less. Besides, we X-Men have two girls, which adds up to a lot of the weight of a man. Tang Lang said.
Hank the Beast said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to run far if I break down......"
"Then so be it," Tang Lang said, "I'll fly back by myself." Eight of you sneak back into Turkey in a dinghy. β
Mora McTag nodded and said, "I'm afraid I won't have enough fuel to return to Turkey by rubber boat...... Rest assured, though, I've reached out over the radio to my colleagues at the CIA's Turkish branch. Their ship was a hundred miles away, and we rushed over to find them at once, so we could safely return to Turkey. It's just Don...... You're going to use your flying superpowers to rush through. β
Tang Lang said: "At present, it seems that it can only be like this. β
As he spoke, he got up from his dinghy and stepped into the waters of the Black Sea.
The surface of the sea, after all, is not the ground.
However, Tang Lang stood on the surface of the water as if he was standing on the ground.
"Then I'll go first."
Tang Lang kicked the water with his legs, and his whole body flew towards the boundless night sky like a rocket in the air.
In an instant, Tang Lang's people disappeared into the starry sky.
The other eight X-Men sitting on the rubber boat all showed envious eyes.
The flight speed of the Tang Lang can be automatically adjusted, and the fastest can even be supersonic speed. He can fly as fast as he wants, and fly as slow as he wants, like a bird that roams the sky freely.
Luckily, there was moonshine.
Tang Lang slowly flew in the air while admiring the scenery of the Black Sea below.
Above the Black Sea, the water waves are deep and the ocean is magnificent.
After flying a short distance, he saw a behemoth in front of him heading in the direction of the Crimean peninsula, with several faint blue points of light on it.
Tang Lang immediately sped up his flight.
Gradually, it got closer.
Tang Lang finally saw the behemoth clearly, but it was an aircraft carrier. He recognized that the aircraft carrier was none other than the aircraft carrier "Volgograd", which was attached to the Black Sea Fleet of the Soviet Union.
Around the aircraft carrier "Volgograd", several ships were also surrounded, which were tightly surrounded in the center, forming an aircraft carrier battle group.
Suddenly, Tang Lang had landed on top of the behemoth and hid in the shadows next to a helicopter.
-- The aircraft carrier "Volgograd" is a Soviet helicopter carrier and belongs to the Soviet Navy. It is 189 meters long, 34 meters wide, has a standard displacement of 15,000 tons, a maximum speed of 31 knots, and uses two steam turbines.
Since it is a helicopter carrier, the "Volgograd" aircraft carrier does not have the ability to take off and land fixed-wing aircraft, therefore, it carries 16 Ka-25 helicopters on it.
On top of the helicopter carrier, it is equipped with ship-to-air missiles, anti-submarine missiles, and two 57-millimeter twin anti-aircraft guns, and its firepower is very powerful.
By this time, the night was getting deeper.
Tang Lang lightly jumped onto the Ka-25 helicopter, and in a fluttering manner, he had already jumped onto the island on the side of the flight deck of the "Volgograd" aircraft carrier.
He was soon on the bridge and found the command room.
Through the window, Tang Lang saw three people in Soviet uniforms, talking quietly in the command room. However, they speak Russian.
Tang Lang did not understand Russian.
However, he knew that those people should be the chief and deputy captains of the "Volgograd" aircraft carrier, as well as the staff of the adjutant of service.
And the aircraft carrier "Volgograd" is likely to go to the Livagya Palace on the shore of the Black Sea to come to the rescue.
"By the time you arrive, the X-Men will have completely left the Soviet border."
Tang Lang thought silently in his heart.
He jumped to the top of the "Volgograd" aircraft carrier island again, and felt that the night wind was blowing non-stop, and his heart could not help but be extremely refreshed.
Spread out your right palm.
With Tang Lang's mind moving, the red lotus industry burst out of his palm and burned in the night sky.
A huge flame illuminated the entire aircraft carrier "Volgograd".
Tang Lang suddenly saw the entire aircraft carrier clearly.
He couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought that the immense energy of the Black Emperor Sebastian Shaw was hidden in his immovable seal, and he knew that releasing it would be enough to sink the "Volgograd" aircraft carrier in one fell swoop.
A loud shout suddenly came from the flight deck below the island.
Tang Lang couldn't understand Russian, and he guessed that what the Soviet soldier said should be: "Someone is setting fire to the ship's island!" β
Immediately afterward, several more people gathered on the flight deck and yelled at him.
Tang Lang withdrew the Red Lotus Karma Fire and said softly: "I won't play with you anymore." I also visited your aircraft carrier Volgograd, what are you waiting for! I'm going to tooβ"
His body suddenly flew directly into the sky from the island of the "Volgograd" aircraft carrier, like a rocket.
Tang Lang seemed to hear gunshots coming from below......
However, his whole person was already out of the range of bullets.
In mid-air, Tang Lang paused, and his body flew flat towards the south. That's the direction to Turkey.
