Chapter 348: Choice
After this period of development, the number of mutants under Lorna's command has exceeded 1,000, which still refers to mutants who have a certain amount of combat power and can completely obey orders.
The number of mutants, the elderly, weak, women and children, the mutants who are incapable of fighting or unwilling to participate in the battle, is still many times this number.
After all, mutants are hereditary, and a mutant often represents a mutant family. Therefore, Lorna has also grown a lot in these days. Presumably because of her bloodline, Lorna, as a mutant leader, learns quickly.
Compared with the innocent little girl who stupidly asked Rorschach for shelter, Lorna can be said to be much more mature.
Mutants and Inhumans may seem similar on the surface, but in fact they are fundamentally different. Mutants' identification with their fellow citizens is based on identity, not ability. There isn't much class stratification among mutants, just the word compatriot can summarize everything.
Even in the mutant brotherhood established by Magneto, only Magneto is the clear leader, and the others do not have a clear distinction between superior and inferior. However, the Inhumans have paid more attention to combat effectiveness than they have recognized their fellow clansmen, dividing them into three, six, nine and so on.
Although the Inhumans under the leadership of Jiaying have not yet developed the feudal system of the Black Bolt King, their attitudes are similar.
Therefore, Lorna is well aware that the Inhumans and herself will not be the real people.
The contradictions between the Inhumans and S.H.I.E.L.D. are so deep that they are almost impossible to coexist peacefully. Lorna, on the other hand, did not get too deeply involved in this hatred, and instead agreed to cooperate with S.H.I.E.L.D. after Rorschach's suggestion.
Although, only a very limited cooperation, it is also a proof of attitude.
Mutants, who do not plan to go to war with S.H.I.E.L.D., the relationship between the two sides can be improved.
The three caves of the cunning rabbit are not the patent of the Chinese people, and Lorna's experience over the years has made her understand the truth that one more friend means one more way back.
"However, we don't know about this Pokémon contest, and we don't have Pokémon to compete." Coulson said with some embarrassment.
"You don't have to worry about this, Pokemon, we will provide it. But my request is that you must at least make it to the top four of this competition, otherwise I can only apologize for the cooperation. Lorna said.
Although the "Final Four ......" doesn't know what the situation of this match is, it is certainly not an easy thing for Lorna to be able to solemnly take it out as a condition.
"So, Miss Lorna, please provide us with this Pokemon."
Coulson couldn't quite agree with Lorna, and that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s mission shouldn't have anything to do with an entertainment game. But now that Lorna has made her request, she can only do her best.
Lorna nodded, then said to the purple-haired girl beside her, "Clarice, take them there." ”
The latter nodded, and then pulled out another spatial door with his hands in the air.
With the experience of the last time, the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. walked into this space door without the slightest hesitation.
Through the space door, everyone came to a wide sports field.
Overhead, there is a milky white ring tube, which almost perfectly mimics the feeling of natural light. The hundreds of square meters of the stadium seem to be divided into three basketball courts, with stepped spectator seating around it.
And Coulson: They are in the very center.
A young man next to Coulson whispered to him: "It's still in New York, and it seems that the positioning is in the Tinder Source Company." ”
This young man named Leo Fitz, who looks no more than twenty years old, is a genius in mechanical technology and an important logistics staff member in Coulson's squad.
Although Fitz's fighting ability can be said to be close to zero, and he is a civilian through and through, he has also undergone some training as a special agent. When he passed through the space gate for the first time, he had already activated the GPS positioning instrument on his body, and he had been paying attention to the change of position.
It was natural to come to the mutant apartment before, so Fitz didn't sink it. This time, he found that everyone had suddenly crossed a considerable distance, from Hell's Kitchen in New York to Queens, and he had to alert Coulson.
"I see. Fitz, we may need to rely on you and Simmons for this mission. Coulson responded.
"Me?" The young man who had just graduated from the school seemed a little nervous.
"That's right, you're an expert in mechanics, and you'll have the most say when you pick this mechanical pet." Coulson said.
The two exchanged words in a whisper, and the greeting staff of the Tinder Source Company had already appeared in front of them.
"Oh, hehehe, the famous Agent Coulson, I didn't expect to see you here." Violet, who was still a classical British lady, walked up to Coulson and said.
"Are you...... Miss Artoria Pendragon? Coulson said with some uncertainty.
The girl in front of me who looks like a doll is the whole shape that comes out of the second dimension, and she doesn't look like a real human at all. If it weren't for the fact that the video of the previous tech expo was very hot, Coulson would probably not have recognized Violet's identity when he saw it while researching relevant materials.
"That's right, that's me." Violet said proudly.
After changing this body, Coulson was the first to utter the name completely, which simply made Violet's heart flutter.
Coulson couldn't understand how his very ordinary greeting made the little girl so happy. If only Rorschach were so easy to deal with, then S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't be so big about Tinder.
"Well, Miss Pendragon, we're here to pick out mechanical pets, I wonder if you have any suggestions?" Coulson asked.
Seeing that the little girl in front of him was easy to talk to, Coulson certainly wanted to get more information, and he would not miss any help that could improve his chances of winning.
"I've heard that you're going to participate in your first Pokemon contest. If that's the case, I recommend that you pay attention to the attributes when choosing Pokémon. Also, most of the teams are teams of six, and you only have four, so I'm afraid you'll suffer. Violet reminded.
Hearing this, Coulson knew that he had earned it, and this was the key information that could affect the outcome of the game. Just when Coulson wanted to say a few more words, Violet clapped his hands.
An illusory light curtain appeared in front of everyone, and hundreds of mechanical pets of different shapes appeared in front of Coulson and them in the form of stereoscopic projections.
"So, choose your Pokemon." Violet said to them quite solemnly.
