Chapter 197: Professor X and Magneto finally join forces (640 monthly pass plus update)
"Annie, I resurrect you because I want you to live happily and peacefully, I want the painful life to leave you, I want you to start a new life, your thoughts are putting a shackle on yourself, I must not do this." Qiao Jin shook his head firmly, it was okay for his mother to recuperate here, but if he wanted to be the leader, it would definitely be complicated and hard.
"So, you forgot the days when I was so sleepy and unfazed at work that you had to run to Ben Parker's for dinner? Do you think I'll be afraid of hard work? People must have their own goals in life, I am only 34 years old, if you don't support my career, forget it, do you want me to find a place to retire? Give me the League of Assassins, little one, and I will be satisfied when I trample the Hydra under my feet. β
Joaquin's face is a little strange, this kind of woman is terrifying, no wonder someone can't control it. Thanks to being her child, I felt more of Annie's maternal love. It's also thanks to that I'm a bit of a maverick, otherwise, from childhood to adulthood, I wouldn't necessarily be trained by Anne to be what it is
"Joaquin, I'm not as unbearable as you think, don't you still have you to check on me." Anne raised an eyebrow, "Why, don't you even believe me?" Questioning my ability and level? β
Speaking of which, Qiao Jin was completely helpless, thought for a long time, weighed left and right, and finally nodded.
"All of a sudden, it's one person under ten thousand." Anne muttered softly, her elbows resting on the stone table, palms supporting her face, "What a wonderful feeling." β
Joaquin looked at Anne with a wry smile, and after thinking about it carefully, he stood up and said, "Let's go, I'm just going to make up for my inheritance ceremony." I'll get you an assistant too. β
Due to extraordinary times. So every qiΔ has to be streamlined. Joaquin eventually symbolically donned the robes of the Master Ninja. Dressed in linen cloth and with a few pendants hanging on his body, he jingles when he walks. It's a bit of a scrap collection.
It's just that it's unexpected. After the simple ceremony, before Joaquin could speak, a guest came. This guest is amazing, it's the daughter of the former ninja master - Nissa!
I saw the tall and sturdy woman walk in step by step, still with black hair fluttering, still eyes like torches, head held high, and walked in front of Jooquin. Raising his head, he said in that characteristic English tone: "You killed my father!" β
"So?" Joaquin stood with his hands in his hands, a little funny in his heart, for this woman who was pretending in front of him, Joaquin knew too well what she was thinking.
"You did what I was supposed to do." Sure enough, the woman was very tsundere and said something that surprised everyone.
"I have forgiven you for your sins, but don't play tricks with me here, don't forget. You are my greatest competitor and enemy. Joaquin looked down at Nissa and spoke in a deep voice. The tone was low and powerful. For a moment, in the entire gloomy stone house, the torches shook slightly, and there were even some traces of annihilation.
Nissa didn't feel danger or fear, but the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and slowly, she knelt down, performed the etiquette of a subordinate of the Assassin Alliance, bowed her head and said respectfully, "My chief." β
Joaquin shook his head and smiled. This woman is also funny, vaguely nominating her own identity. But he bowed obediently, and there was no resistance on his face. It was evident that she was preparing for the next request.
"Now, because of my special status, my position is temporarily managed by the person next to me, Anne George. She is temporarily in charge of the Assassin League, giving orders on my behalf. Joaquin took off the golden finger cuff in his hand, put it in his mother's hand, and said softly, "You have a lot to do, first familiarize yourself with the specific strength of the Assassin Alliance, but I believe my worries are unnecessary. β
Anne glanced at Joaquin coldly, yes, she looked like a queen when she first took the throne. Joaquin is now the focus of everyone's eyes, of course, it is impossible to make any such a move as scratching his head, so he can only walk down the stone platform quietly.
And Anne put the golden finger cuff on her hand, walked up to the stone platform, stood proudly, looked at the kneeling crowd below in the dark, and slowly spoke: "Shadow, ghost." This is the advice and definition of the last ninja master. Now"
As Joaquin listened to his mother's words, he felt a feeling. As the only person in the field who could stand, looking at the killing machine below that had paid absolute loyalty, Joaquin really sighed with infinite emotion, the Assassin Alliance, this is really a huge gift, either it will be revived with the lifting of the mutant crisis, or it will be completely destroyed in his own hands. Master Ninja, the bet is no smaller than that of the White Queen.
Mother Anne didn't say much, and in a few words, she ended her handover ceremony. A group of elite ninjas are still like a desktop machine, silent and silent. Anne saw that Joaquin and Nissa were a little frowning, and waved her hand casually, signaling Joaquin to hurry up and leave, don't disturb her here.
Joaquin nodded to Nissa as well and walked out first. Nissa saluted Anne respectfully, and quietly followed Anne with her approval.
"If you have something, just say it." Joaquin's gloomy face faded and he looked at Nissa with a calm expression.
Nissa nodded, "Oliver's team and his family, I want to bring their sincerest gratitude, especially Felicity. β
Speaking of Felicity, Nissa's stiff expression was a little strange, as if she had thought of something funny, and she was clearly not very good at smiling.
"It's not like that, hurry up, I can't stay here for too long." Joaquin waved his hand.
"Please, Chief, let me bring the canary back." Nissa suddenly fell to her knees again, her voice full of pleading and anticipation.
Joaquin couldn't stand this kneeling behavior a little, and had to set up a score in the hall, here Joaquin was a lot more casual, and reached out and grabbed Nissa: "Okay, she's a good girl, I wish you your own happiness, if you want to break away from the alliance, I'll allow it now." β
Nissa jerked her head up and looked at Joaquin in disbelief, what had she heard? Nissa would never think that she was Joaquin's worst enemy, maybe her identity could be relied upon, but the gap in strength was there, and she didn't even have the qualifications to be Joaquin's enemy. But among ordinary people. As well as various tasks, Nissa considers herself to be an absolute good hand, and has lived here since she was a child. The skills of a body are not practiced in vain, but Joaquin just let himself go so easily? Not only promised to resurrect the canary himself. Still let yourself go with the canary?
"It's painful enough for people to live in this world, although your father has given you countless painful experiences, but he is still your father, he has given me a very precious gift, and now, I will return a small gift." Joaquin smiled and nodded, "Tell Annie about the specific things." Whether to go or stay, decide for yourself. But when you negotiate with her, don't be as casual as me, if you offend her, I don't dare to plead with you. β
Nissa looked delighted, nodded and slowly retreated.
"Joaquin." In my mind, a beautiful voice suddenly sounded.
"Huh?" Qiao Jin was slightly stunned, this is the voice of the White Queen? Isn't she in Europe? I'm in Pakistan, so my mental ability is too strong, right?
"What are you capable of?" Joaquin asked softly.
"I made a little instrument, and it felt very good. It's no worse than Charles's brainwave booster, hehe. The White Queen smiled and continued. I'm not talking to you, Charles contacted me just now and asked me for help. β
"Professor? What's wrong? Joaquin asked in a deep voice.
"It looks like the Sentinel Plane has reached out to the mutant school." There was a hint of solemnity in the White Queen's voice, and the cheerful tone faded.
"School?" Joaquin was shocked, has the Sentinel Machine grown to this point? Started attacking the school? No more looking for scattered mutants to practice? No more retrofitting?

Ten minutes ago.
In a dilapidated house in New York, two elderly men finally meet, Professor X and Magneto!
"Eric. Are you still sticking to your philosophy? Professor X's face was full of solemnity, and he looked at Magneto, whose face was gloomy and uncertain. He said in a deep voice, "I think you've felt it." The destructive power of the sentry machine, they have been transformed quite advanced. β
Magneto gave Professor X a cold look, then turned to look out the window. I don't know what I'm thinking.
"You simply can't fight those sentry planes! Their mastery of materials is so clever that your abilities are of no use at all. Professor X took control of his wheelchair, stepped forward, and said, "Restrain your brotherhood, if this continues, I can foresee our future." β
"Charles! You're still so hopeful, and your heart is still so naΓ―ve. Do you think that by letting the Brotherhood shrink a corner now, I can stop this catastrophe? Magneto turned his head and looked down at Professor X, his eyes full of determination.
"Stop first, and I'll take care of the rest." Professor X continued to admonish Magneto.
"Use your brain to think about it, now is not the time for you to be confused, you actually know very well in your heart, this kind of approach will not help at all!" Magneto's voice was tinged with a hint of annoyance, as if he hated iron for not being made of steel.
Professor X's face froze at Magneto's words, and he was silent for a long time, and said, "Each other, you are also old, and you are also confused. I warned you, but you intensified it, and this catastrophe came prematurely. β
"I may have just accelerated this process, I may have underestimated the strength of this group of lowly human beings, but even if I don't resist, we will still have this day, and this catastrophe will still exist, this is the inevitable trend of human evolution! The replacement of the old by the new is bound to be hindered! Magneto waved his sleeves and walked to the door.
"No, Eric, maybe, we still have a chance." Professor X spoke suddenly, looking up at Magneto's back.
"What? Let's all the mutants give up their resistance and be taken into concentration camps again and endure persecution? Open your eyes and look at this society, Charles, they have now started hunting mutants, they have started building concentration camps, they are going to completely wipe out our existence! Magneto's gloomy tone lingered in the room, "Your so-called communication and negotiation have no effect in the face of absolute force. β
"Are we just going to resist to the end? Slowly cannibalized by them? Will the race eventually be wiped out? Eric, would you like to see results like this? Professor X's voice suddenly amplified, how many years, he has always been gentle and elegant, he has not spoken loudly.
