Chapter 146; The age of new mutants
In the room, except for the people on the other side of the road, there are only Jia Ying, Calvin, and an eyeless Inhuman man, if memory serves, this eyeless man is called Gordon, and his ability is range teleportation.
Perhaps, in Jia Ying's opinion, Calvin and Gordon were enough to protect her safety and promote the confidence of the Inhumans to Lu Fang and others, of course, if she knew the real terrifying strength of these people in front of her, she would definitely not think like this.
"As mutants, you suddenly came to us Inhumans." Jia Ying, who was sitting in a precarious position, did not have any politeness, but said directly to the point.
"Because we want to work with you." Sitting on the road opposite Jia Ying, he didn't have the slightest intention of beating around the bush, and directly said his intention.
"Cooperation?" Jia Ying raised her eyebrows when she heard this, to be honest, she didn't think that mutants and Inhumans had anything to cooperate with, but out of politeness, Jia Ying still opened her mouth and continued: "Let's hear what kind of cooperation method is." ”
"I hope you can provide us with research data in all areas of genetics, and in return, we mutants are willing to form an offensive and defensive alliance with the Inhumans to help you Inhumans in times of need."
"Are you kidding?" Hearing this, Jia Ying felt that she was about to be laughed at. "Are you stupid when you open your mouth to get all of our genetic research data, and all we get in exchange is an empty promise to help us in times of crisis? And what's the point of us Inhumans living here in seclusion. ”
"I'm not stupid for you, on the contrary, I believe in your wisdom and foresight to tell you this." Lu Fang said with an unchanged face.
"Let me ask you a question, why do you Inhumans shrink into this small place and disconnect from society?"
"This is to stay away from the harassment of those ordinary humans." Jia Ying glanced at Lu Fang and said lightly.
"Yes, you are afraid of ordinary humans, because if they notice you, you are doomed." Lu Fang said solemnly.
Compared to mutants, the structure of the Inhumans is more fragile, and the overall strength is also weaker. If it is said that mutants oppress ordinary humans, people like Lao Wan can also lead people to do things, so that ordinary humans dare not do too much. Then the Inhumans don't even have the ability to resist in front of ordinary humans.
After all, this Inhuman race on Earth is just an abandoned one, and the forces that can deal with them on Earth cannot be counted on two hands. And there is still a strange ability hidden in their body, and they are not guilty of it, as a special human being, their ability is not strong enough, which is the biggest original sin of this Inhuman race on the earth, and there are many people who want to serve them in a pot.
"Let me ask you another question, as the technology of ordinary humans develops, the scope of activity becomes more and more extensive, how long do you think you can hide here. If this place is exposed, where can you hide? The Congo Basin in Africa is still in the Amazon rainforest. ”
"We ······." Jia Ying was silent in the end, she knew the situation of the Inhumans better than anyone else.
"And what qualifications do you have to give us shelter, the force you can represent the mutants, the X-Men? Or is it a fraternity? ”
Hearing Jia Ying's obviously shaken words, Lu Fang suddenly grinned at the corner of his mouth: "I represent all~!" ”
"You ······." Hearing this, Jia Ying was obviously stunned for a moment, and then looked at Calvin, and from her husband's eyes, she got a positive answer.
For so many years, the Inhumans have a weak connection with the outside world, and the biggest source of information is Mr. Calvin Hyde. And Jia Ying also knew that although Calvin became a little nervous because of the drug, his brain was not broken, even if he was a madman, he was also a smart madman, because Jia Ying believed Calvin's words.
"So the mutant forces have begun to integrate."
"Isn't that normal?" Lu Fang said with a smile.
Since the age of primitive slaves, the last inheritance of mutants has been broken, all mutants have integrated into human society, and in that recorded history, some legendary heroes, some capable people with mysterious powers, and even some fake witches and wizards who were burned to death, maybe even mutants.
Even if a mutant is gifted, there is a limit to what they can do without huddling and not knowing their own powers.
But all this has changed until the development of human science and technology, the dissemination of information has become more and more convenient, and as human beings have entered modern society, mutants have also expanded with the expansion of population. And more importantly, because of the ease of information communication, mutants scattered around the world are becoming more and more connected.
So after the first one or two hundred years, some mutants began to learn to huddle, and then explore their abilities together and share experiences with each other.
After the Cold War, mutants entered the era of division and chaos of the Hellfire Club, and some mutant groups continued to swallow up other mutant organizations through battles, seizing their interests to strengthen themselves.
In the last era of division and chaos, Professor ** and Magneto joined forces to put an end, and the two of them, who spent their whole lives, successfully brought mutants into an era of peaceful transition.
Of course, Professor X and Magneto don't want to stop there, what they want to see is someone who can follow in their footsteps and push this transitional era one step further, that is, the era of integration. It belongs to the era of the rise of the new generation of mutants on the side of the road, this is the best era for mutants, and it will also be the era that faces the most challenges.
"So you're also looking for a way out for your own race." Jia Ying's eyes were staring at Lu Yifang, although the young man in front of her was still very immature, as the leader of the Inhuman race, she still noticed the same thing as herself in Lu Yifang's eyes, that is, worries about the future of her race.
"I can agree to your request to form an alliance with mutants, but I have a request, I want you to help us with something, of course, this matter is definitely beneficial for both of us."
"Tell me." Lu Fang stretched out his hand and said gesturely.
Jia Ying didn't speak directly, but suddenly stood up, carefully pulled out a small box from a drawer behind her, and then picked up a dark blue crystal from the box.
"This thing is called Terrigen Mist, we Inhumans are a little different from you mutants, we can't actively awaken, but need the catalytic stimulation of Terrigen Mist. And even if there are humans with Inhuman genes, not all of them are suitable for awakening, and the purity of Terrigan's fog also has a great image of the success rate of awakening.
Unfortunately, we are very deficient in both technology and equipment, and there are too many impurities in the Terrigen Mist, which greatly affects the chances of Inhuman's awakening. ”
"So you want us to help you create a purer Terrigen Mist." Lu Fang said as he stared at the dark blue crystal in front of him.
"The Terrigen Mist is the highest technological achievement of the Inhumans, and it is not easy to purify it, but of course, it is even more difficult to increase the production of the Terrigen Mist while maintaining high purity." Jia Ying explained.
"So what are you trying to express?" Lu Fang said calmly.
"You should know that our Inhumans were created by the Kree using the genes of the mutant ancestors, and I know the news of an experimental relic left by the Kree on Earth, where in addition to the manufacturing technology of the Terrigan Mist, it is very likely that there are also secrets of the origin of the Inhumans, and of course, correspondingly, there must also be secrets of mutants."
