Chapter 0369: Before Infinity War
Deadpool Wade Winston Wilson is a man of all words, well, to put it mildly, he's actually a talkative and somewhat unusual guy!
At this time, the man with a red hood with a dark eye circle was sitting topless, depressedly sitting on the back of a large sea turtle, rising and falling with the waves on the surface of the Pacific Ocean or diving with the turtle.
Anyway, he Wade, Deadpool, will not be drowned in the sea, there are many creatures in the ocean, he can get enough fresh food for himself at any time, and he will not starve himself to death, so ah, he can't die easily, this is his current state.
If you're going to say why he's got to this point, that's a long story......
A month ago, when a little girl left on a spaceship and abandoned Wade on the island, he spent nearly two weeks sleeping there in the open, and then he couldn't stand that anymore and wanted to change that state.
Because, that damn island, it doesn't even have a cave to shelter from the wind and rain!
It's fine on a sunny day, he at least has a small beach and lots of coconut trees to shade from the sun and enjoy the cool beach. If you are thirsty, you can drink coconut water, and when you are hungry, you can eat some coconut meat or go to the sea to catch fish, anyway, he doesn't need to breathe and won't die when he sleeps, there will always be a lot of gains!
At the beginning of this little day, it was quite comfortable, and it was okay to live a good life.
The only drawback was that there was no one there to talk to, which made Wade feel that his own language skills had degraded a lot during this time, and he was very lonely.
What's worse is that on a rainy day, it's terrible...... You know, in the Pacific, it's humid and rainy, and the tropical climate is also unpredictable!
So, on a rainy day, Wade could only squat under the largest coconut tree and barely avoid it! However, if people are unlucky, they will choke on drinking water! So, when he was struck directly by a thunderbolt of lightning and lay on his body for two days with convulsions, he made up his mind that he would never go to that desert island to survive again!
So, after he had broken alive two katana swords of very poor quality, which were not suitable for cutting wood at all, he managed to make a raft and push it smoothly into the sea, intending to float slowly to the main waterway where there were people or ships.
However, there are unpredictable circumstances in the sky......
The day after Wade made up his mind to go to sea, his improvised raft did not survive the tropical storm that approached without warning...... The waves more than ten meters high, one pounce down, and his raft was directly dismantled!
Then, when he fell to the bottom of the sea, he could no longer find his way back to the island...... Coupled with the vastness of the sea, he couldn't tell where he was on the sea! So, in the end, in desperation, he had no choice but to catch such a turtle, tie himself to the back shell of the other party with a rope, and live a life of drifting with the flow.
Although, in this difficult month, Wade has never been able to touch a ship or a fishing boat, and he has never touched any island...... However, he believed that he would come ashore one day! And the big sea turtle carrying him will definitely take him ashore sooner or later!
However, he did not have a high score in biology, but he did not know that when the male and female turtles were 20 to 25 years old, the female turtles would migrate to their birthplaces and climb onto land to lay eggs, and the interval between each breeding and laying eggs was two to nine years...... So, if Wade wanted to go ashore with a tortoise, he probably might as well pray that it would be more realistic to run into a less remote island or a boat sooner.
β¦β¦
While Deadpool Wade was drifting across the ocean, Wolverine Logan Howlett was sitting in their limousine with Professor X Charles and Storm Girl Oloro Monroe on their way back to X Academy.
It was Wolverine Logan who was starting, and after struggling for a while, he finally couldn't help but speak:
"I'm sorry, Professor Charles......"
"It's all my fault...... Because of me...... I lost that game...... So, let Jean lose their chance to recover......"
Thinking about the game he lost before, Wolverine Logan was full of shame, so he was driving the car at this time, and he was even a little afraid to look at Professor X Charles, who was sitting in the back seat with his eyes closed.
Obviously there is a good chance for him to fight for Jean and Scott to recover their abilities, but he is messed up by his naΓ―ve thoughts!
Before I think about it, it was just a contest to eat, and it was a great opportunity for anyone to defeat that little girl without any ability...... And yet, he still shamefully lost, to a little girl who seemed to be only eight years old?
And...... It seems that it still loses in IQ?
If he lost the fight, then he might not be so sad, after all, Jean and the Fantastic Four and Doctor Strange and the fourteen powerful superheroes have all lost!
But...... Just now, what they had was a cultural battle could be said to be ......
Think of its dignified Wolverine Logan Howlett, born in 1832 in the nineteenth century, and has lived for almost two hundred years, but what is the result...... He actually lost in IQ to a little girl of a few years old...... This made him feel very ashamed, and at the same time he felt very sorry for the friends who were now staying in the academy, waiting for their good news.
"Humph! Logan ......"
"You really don't have to blame yourself! Actually, we didn't even think of it at the time...... If you want to blame this, you can only blame the little girl, she is so cunning! She actually set a trap with words, so that we all thought that we were just going to compete with her to eat fast and slow, but, who would have thought of it...... How could she still eat it?! β
As soon as she thought of this, Ororo the Storm Maiden was indignant!
Anyway, Oloro doesn't think Logan is wrong! After all, the good method she came up with at the time that didn't have time to implement it wasn't even as fast as Logan eating in circles!
It's actually all that little girl's problem, she's just too cunning! It's just a matter of eating, and you can still think of that kind of treacherous means, and now these little kids are really getting more and more difficult to deal with! And that guy is still so young, so evil and cunning, when he grows up, what will he do?!
"That's it! Logan, and Oloro...... Do not be troubled by this matter any more, and have no more burdens in your hearts. β
"Actually, we did lose today, and it's that simple! That little girl, she gave us a chance, however...... All three of us missed ......"
Not to mention Logan and Oloro, in fact, even Professor X Charles himself didn't expect to be able to compete like this at that time...... Who would have thought that the speed of eating marshmallows in a good competition would be a brain teaser at the same time?
Although the little girl was indeed a little cunning, it was irrefutable that the other party had also given them an excellent opportunity, so ...... Charles felt that the three of them were not wronged at all when they lost, and they really couldn't blame others for this matter!
"Professor, are we going to leave it at that?"
The big opportunity was lost in his own hands, and the loss was embarrassing, and Logan said that it was definitely impossible not to be sad!
Even though Professor Charles comforted himself, Logan still felt that he was a sinner! It was he himself who was so stupid that he missed the opportunity...... He didn't know how he was going to talk to Jean, Scott, Warren, and Robert about it when he got back.
"That's right! Professor Charles, what do we do next? β
Anyway, Storm Girl Oloro felt that no matter what, their X-Men had to find a way to restore Jean and Scott's abilities to their nine X-Men, and those nine people were the core strength of their X-Men, absolutely indispensable!
Whether it's continuing to contact that little girl, or continuing to put pressure on the Bear Shield Bureau, anyway, there must be an explanation for this matter that they are satisfied with!
"Don't do anything now, let's wait and see for now......"
After looking down and thinking for a while, Professor X finally sighed and shook his head.
After this contact, he found that the little girl seemed to be able to speak better, so he felt that the ability of the nine of them was still expected to recover!
It's just that, next, they'd better not be too anxious to bother the little guy, after all, it's too much, so that's the way it goes. If you have a chance in the future, then slowly contact each other and connect with each other, and wait until they are more familiar with the little girl on the X-Men side, and then open their mouths, I believe that when the time comes, she will not easily refuse their request, right?
This kind of method of dealing with children, he Charles is very proficient, even if he does not use mental comfort and control methods, he is confident that he can coax the other party into obedience, just like those little mutant students in his Xavier genius school! It's just that the little girl is not his student and usually doesn't meet each other, so this matter needs to be done slowly and easily.
"That's right, Professor! I have an idea here......"
"Those Inhumans on the moon, those strange Terrigan crystals, do they help Jean recover?"
Ororo, the storm girl with a flash of inspiration in her mind, suddenly thought of a good idea!
She felt that since they were now friendly with the forces of the mutant X-Men and the forces of the Inhumans, and had been in contact with each other recently, if their X-Academy could let the Inhumans donate a few Terrigan Crystals, wouldn't it mean that their X-Men wouldn't have to go and ask for alms from that cunning little girl at all?
This kind of problem that can be solved by yourself, then it is best to solve it yourself, no need to ask for help!
Therefore, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this thing was possible, and the storm girl Oloro turned her head excitedly to look at Professor X Charles, who was sitting in the back of the official car, hoping that the other party would affirm her idea.
"What a great idea, Oloro! I think you're doing a good job, Professor Charles, what do you think? β
Hearing that the other party could still come up with such a good method, Wolverine Logan, who was driving, couldn't help but light up his eyes, and even increased the throttle a few points, overtaking several cars in a row.
"Alas......"
"Logan, and Oloro...... Your idea is actually good, but unfortunately, we mutants are not Inhumans......"
Professor X Charles had actually agreed with Blackcard Burt, the Black Bolt King of the Inhuman Race, on this matter, otherwise they would not have known and developed a good cooperative relationship before. It's just that they didn't have time to communicate the difference between Inhumans and mutants within each other's forces.
"This thing...... Actually, let's start from the ancient times of the earth......"
Anyway, it is still a long time before returning to their X Academy (Xavier Genius Academy), Charles thought about it and began to explain to the two of them:
"Let's talk about Inhumans now......."
"The Inhumans, there are already materials that can prove it: in the first place, it was indeed created by the Kree! They have certain genes of the Celestials in their bodies, which were forcibly added by the Cree after being modified, and can even be inherited! However, if they want to activate their abilities, they usually have to use that Terrigan Crystal or Terrigan Mist to activate them when they are adults......"
"And we mutants are said to have been modified from the cosmic celestial race earlier, and they have X genes in their bodies......"
"The way we acquire abilities is based on mutations in the X gene, which are uncontrollable and generally cannot be inherited! Perhaps, some of us can complete mutations when we are young, or maybe some of us will not show our abilities until much later in adulthood...... But here's the irrefutable: we mutants are dumber and don't need that Terrigan Crystal! Moreover, they are also a deadly thing for us mutants......"
After saying that, Charles sighed softly, in the final analysis, they still need to slowly contact the difficult little guy, and then at the right opportunity, ask the other party again to help them recover their strength?
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Hearing Professor X Charles say the same, Storm Lady Oloro lowered her head a little gloomily, and Wolverine Logan's speed also decreased again.
Obviously, they thought they had found a good way, but they were brutally hit by reality.
"By the way, Logan, I actually have one more thing here, and I need you to handle it as soon as possible."
After a moment of silence, Charles suddenly remembered the guy who wore a red hood and had dark circles under his eyes that liked to prank.
Anyway, now that Deadpool Wade Winston Wilson can also be regarded as a supernumerary member of their X-Men, and he can indeed help them a lot, plus he was also assigned to carry out the mission by himself before, so now that he knows the whereabouts of the other party, he Charles himself has to do something.
"Say, Professor!"
Logan, who had just lost the game, was immediately refreshed when he heard that there was a mission.
He secretly made a promise in his heart that if there was another task given to him, he would definitely be able to complete it beautifully, and he would never let the organization down again!
"That Deadpool, Wade Winston Wilson, you should know about him, right?"
Professor X, who was closing his eyes and meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Wolverine Logan in the rearview mirror who was driving. Originally, anyone could run this task, but Charles hoped that Logan would stop dwelling on what had just happened, so he preferred him.
"Of course! It's the guy who has a cheap mouth and can't die, of course I know! β
Logan nodded as a matter of course, indicating that he must have remembered the guy.
Who doesn't know that famous little? That guy, notoriously unorganized and undisciplined, and a penchant for killing innocents as he pleased, was never recognized as one of them by their X-Men.
"A month ago, I sent him on a small mission...... And now, it seems that he is trapped on an isolated island in the Pacific Ocean...... So, when you get back, you can get on a plane and pick him up. β
Thinking about the other party alone, but being left on a small island where no ships approached and still hidden, Charles also felt a little strange and pitiful, so after remembering it, he immediately explained the matter of Logan.
This task is actually quite simple! Because their X-Men have a high-speed plane that can take off vertically and can also fly at supersonic speeds, a round trip is a matter of an hour or two, which is not a big deal.
"Okay, Professor, if he's still on the island, I promise I'll bring him back!"
This matter, when he first went to contact the little girl, Logan heard the other party talk about it, it seems that the professor asked that Wade to steal the gem?
A month ago...... If you calculate it this way, that poor-mouthed guy has been abandoned on the island for almost a month now, and I don't know if he was starved to death? But thinking of that guy's ability, even on a lonely island, he can easily starve to death, right?

After receiving important information and leaving Asgard, Thanos' Templar II ship arrived outside of the Xander Star Field, where it stopped.
Now Thanos's main energy is to collect those Infinity Stones, and although the Xander army and the opposing Nova army are not taken seriously by Thanos, they are also a big trouble after all. Therefore, he did not rashly drive the Temple No. 2 into the other party's star sector identification range, so as not to cause some unnecessary trouble.
In fact, in recent times, Thanos has not done much to provoke the disgust of other races, except for teaching the disobedient Kree. After all, now that he had found a better way to directly destroy half of the living beings in the universe, there was no need to provoke other races at all.
"How's your investigation going, have you found that guy?"
Sitting on the throne and looking at the Reality Stone on the Infinity Gauntlet in his left hand, Thanos was now a little distracted and kept rubbing it with his right hand.
Although he probably knows the whereabouts of all the Infinity Stones by now, it's a pity that he has been busy for a long time in the past few days before he can get a piece! The other piece is said to be in Loki's hands, however, they have not been able to find any trace of each other.
"I'm sorry, Lord Thanos......"
As soon as Officer Chirita finished saying this, he felt a gaze like substance sweep over him, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly continued:
"However, after our investigation, we found out that someone bought a remote planet of the Sandar people in the name of Gao Tianzun...... You know, Gao Tianzun has actually been killed by you, so ......"
After lowering his head and hurriedly finishing the matter they had found out, the Chirita officer felt that Thanos had finally become less vicious than the gaze that swept towards him.
"Humph! Now that you've found the trail of that bug, what are you waiting for, why don't you hurry up?! β
found someone and still grinded here, which made Thanos feel a little dissatisfied!
"But, the great Lord Thanos......"
"That small planet is relatively remote, not on the main shipping lanes, and there are no large jumping wormholes...... If we had gone straight to Temple Two, it would have taken a lot more time to use warp speed, or ...... Shall we switch to a smaller ship? β
Officer Chirita gave the other a cautious look, compared to the oversized Templar II, it would save a lot of time if they replaced it with a smaller ring-shaped ship.
"Humph! That's okay, we still have some time! β
Now that his Obsidian Five under Thanos is conquering the Kree, and his goddaughter Nebula is also hunting Gamora, he has time at this time! His previous dissatisfaction was only annoyed that his men had not been able to find Loki's whereabouts!
But now that he has found it and knows that the other party is hiding on a remote asteroid, then he is not in such a hurry.
"Yes! Subordinates understand! β
With a respectful salute to Thanos, the Cherita Legion turned and left the palace in the spaceship, ready to deliver the order.
"Humph!"
"Once you've got the Power Gem, that's all that's left for the Soul Gem that Gamora has sought...... And then there's the ...... of the earth."
