Chapter 196: The Plan to Join Forces
According to the past practice, when mutants come out to make trouble, most of the time Professor X will come forward to solve it, which is not only Professor X's habit, in fact, the US government has also tacitly acquiesced to this. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's just that Apocalypse is playing too big, just dealing with those rioting mutants is enough for Professor X and his X-Men to drink a pot, and if they deal with Apocalypse and his Four Horsemen head-on, Bucky estimates that the X-Men will become history in the future.
"What about Tony and Steve, they don't even say they're here, are they out on a mission?"
Bucky just wanted to call Tony and them to go to Professor X's school, only to suddenly realize that he was worried about Anna before and didn't pay attention to the surroundings, but now he swept it with his mental power and found that Tony and the others were not in the building, except for the shrunken extraordinary dragon who was still sleeping, only Natasha was tiptoeing, her ears were attached to the door, and she didn't know how long she had been eavesdropping.
When Bucky returned, he didn't hide his whereabouts, and although he didn't make much noise, it wasn't difficult for Natasha, who had been trained as the most elite agent for many years, to find Bucky back.
With a wave of his hand, the door of the room was opened by Bucky, and Natasha, whose head was lightly attached to the door, couldn't help but stumble, her body had been trained to her level, and it didn't take half a second to stabilize her body, but Natasha just made a look of unsteady standing, pretending to be pitiful, and said: "Oh, I almost fell down, it's really hateful!" ”
Looking at her contrived appearance, Bucky's face couldn't help but darken, and he said angrily: "Speak well, pretend to be pitiful!" Why didn't you go to school, it couldn't be skipping class, right? ”
"What kind of class is skipping, do you still need to escape, it's so dangerous outside, the school has long been closed." Natasha pursed her lips and said, "I was boring enough in class, but now I don't even have to do such a boring thing, I'm wasting my life." Tony and Steve both went out to fight, even that little Lori named Elenno could go and fight with the bad guys, but I had to stay here, my house was bombed, and I had to hide, and Sister Anna didn't allow me to kill those bad guys, so I was so breathless! ”
Natasha messed up her hair and seemed to be crazy.
"That group of people has so many heavy weapons, it's too dangerous, you're still a child, don't go!" Anna's face puffed up, and she pretended to be angry and stern.
In Bucky's opinion, the current Natasha has a bit of the strength of Black Widow in the future, although she may not be the opponent of the radical organization with many heavy weapons, but it is not difficult to get out of the way. But now that Anna has entered the parent mode, Bucky naturally won't object, but nodded and said: "That's right, it's too dangerous, out of those radicals, there are many mutants who are also making trouble, you can't just go out." ”
Looking at Natasha's look of indignation, Bucky smiled and continued: "In this way, you can go to Professor X's school for a few days first, you won't be so bored, as for those who blew up our house, leave it to me." ”
With that, Bucky opened a spatial door to Xavier's Academy, pulling Anna and a reluctant Natasha inside.
Xavier's school was still calm and peaceful on the surface, and it didn't seem to be affected by the apocalypse, but Bucky could still see some worry in the eyes of some of the older children.
Anna doesn't like fighting, and Bucky doesn't let him follow, but Natasha is very interested in Bucky's purpose, but she is still pulled by Anna and goes to Kayla, who teaches at the academy.
Coming to Professor X's office with a familiar way, Bucky didn't knock on the door, just pushed the door in, and saw Professor X sitting at the desk with a frown, constantly flipping through the materials in his hand.
"You're a few days later than I am."
Professor X didn't look up, still looking at the information carefully, but he also clearly knew that it was Bucky who came in.
"I was delayed by some things, and I just learned about the apocalypse, so I came immediately."
At this time, Professor X closed the information in front of him, looked at Bucky with deep eyes, and after a long time, he said leisurely: "Mr. Barnes, does our cooperation still count?" ”
Bucky was a little confused by the question, but he quickly reacted. He once had a verbal agreement with Professor X that if there was an alien invasion on Earth and other disasters that ordinary people could not resist, Professor X would be willing to lead the X-Men to stand up and fight the disaster together. The protagonist of this incident, Apocalypse, is the first mutant on Earth, and if according to the customary rules between Professor X and the top government officials, Apocalypse will be handled by the X-Men, and the strong people who are not mutants will not participate in most cases. It's just that the strength of Apocalypse is too amazing, even the four knights under him can't be solved by the X-Men, so Professor X will ask Bucky if the verbal agreement to cooperate is still counted.
"Of course, I'm not here to make fun of you X-Men." Bucky shrugged his shoulders and continued, "I'm not happy that my house was bombed, and at the end of the day, Apocalypse is half to blame for that!" ”
Professor X smiled with satisfaction, although he had guessed Bucky's attitude the moment he appeared in the school, but it was only when he heard Bucky take a stand that his hanging heart could be completely grounded.
"The strength of the Apocalypse is too strong, and there are four horsemen who follow him almost all the time, with your joining, I only have a little courage to stop him, otherwise, I am afraid that I have already taken this group of children to hide, even if Scott and a few of them are talented and willing to work hard, it is still too reluctant to face the older generation of strong people like Magneto and the White Queen."
"Yes, let them stay at school, and protect the little ones in the school. Now that the outside world is in chaos, the conflict between mutants and ordinary people is going on all the time, and my house was blown up by a group of radical armed men, and it is hard to guarantee that they will not beat their ideas into the school. ”
Bucky's words made Professor X frown again, and his fingers kept tapping on the tabletop, making a thumping sound. After a long time, Professor X spoke: "If we don't send out the X-Men, I'm afraid, we don't have enough strength to fight against the Apocalypse and the Four Horsemen." Magneto's helmet and the White Queen's diamondization completely restrained my abilities, I can only deal with the other two, my plan is to have you to contain the apocalypse, and Magneto and the White Queen, the two top mutants, need Scott to contain them, if Iron Man and Captain America can help, it would be even better. In this way, as long as you can support it for a while, then the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse should be able to solve it, and when the time comes, we should have a good chance of winning by besieging the Apocalypse together. ”
As one of the smartest people on Earth, Professor X's plan is indeed good, and without knowing the apocalypse, this plan is already the most sound. It's just that when he estimated his own strength, he greatly underestimated Bucky.
It's no wonder that the last time Bucky saw Professor X was half a year ago, and at that time, he had just controlled the aether particles with his spiritual power, and his strength was not very strong. But now, in addition to the aether particles, Bucky has also obtained the Cosmic Cube, two Infinity Stones in his hand, plus the enhancement of Superhuman Serum, in terms of combat power, it is more than two or three times stronger than half a year ago.
Bucky smiled, knowing that Professor X would not be at ease if he didn't show a little bit of strength now, so he spread out his right hand and placed it in front of Professor X, and the energy of the two Infinity Stones instantly concentrated in Bucky's hand.
Professor X's face on the other side suddenly changed, although he didn't have the means of energy attack, and all his abilities were focused on mental power, but after all, he had served as the principal for many years, and he had seen countless mutants with superior abilities, and he had never seen a mutant who could gather such terrifying energy so easily.
"Perhaps, this can only be done after the powerful and mysterious power in Qin's body is fully awakened!" Professor X thought to himself.
As soon as his fist was clenched, Bucky dissipated the energy in his hand and said with a smile: "Recently, my strength has grown a little, Apocalypse, Magneto, and the White Queen will be handed over to me, professor, you only need to deal with Lord Man, and the saber-toothed tiger will be handed over to Logan, the battle between the two brothers has been going on for many years, and this time may be an opportunity to solve it." ”
"Logan? Wolverine Logan turned out to be a brother with the saber-toothed tiger, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse! ”
This is the first time Professor X has heard about Logan, and for that cool man, Professor X only knows that he is a powerful mutant, a mutant who has lost his memory, and the husband of the school teacher Kayla. As for the rest, Professor X is not very clear, he believes that even if it is Rogen himself, I am afraid that he has no memory of the saber-toothed tiger.
Professor X didn't have the habit of asking the bottom of the matter, and he didn't show any surprise that Bucky knew about Logan's past, and now he was not as nervous as before, with strong foreign aid like Bucky, and Logan to help deal with the saber-toothed tiger, one of the four horsemen, his own chances of winning were suddenly much greater, and he didn't have to risk the school being attacked to bring those young X-Men to the battlefield.
"Professor, have you ever thought about what will happen after defeating the Apocalypse?" Bucky spoke suddenly, interrupting Professor X's good mood.
Seriously, Professor X has been worrying about how to defeat the Apocalypse and the Four Horsemen these days, but in the end, it will be a battle with no chance of winning, if it weren't for the fact that his hair would have fallen out a long time ago, I'm afraid that the excessive use of his brain these days can also make him bald.
There has never been a way to defeat the Apocalypse, so how could Professor X think about what will happen after defeating the Apocalypse. However, after Bucky's question, Professor X's face suddenly became a little ugly.
With Professor X's cleverness, how could he not know the true purpose of Bucky's question, and wait until the real threat of the apocalypse is eliminated, then the conflict between mutants and ordinary humans that has broken out now will become the mainstream contradiction in society.
Mutants have been oppressed for too long, and after such a provocation by the Apocalypse, all the long-standing resentments have erupted overnight, and even Professor X, who is the leader of mutants, can't suppress it. The conflict between the two races has been put on the bright side, although there are powerful mutants such as Professor X, Magneto, and the White Queen, but the vast majority of mutants are not opponents of well-trained soldiers, not to mention that there are only three or four hundred thousand mutants in the world, and no more than five hundred thousand at most, which seems to be a lot of numbers, but with a population base of nearly 6 billion on the earth, the number of mutants is still too small.
If mutants do break out into a full-scale conflict with ordinary humans, then the best outcome for mutants is to fight with ordinary humans, and then the remaining mutants will either hide their identities again, or be imprisoned and lose their freedom. However, it is more likely that the mutant race will be completely wiped out, and Professor X estimates that if it really comes to that point, Bucky in front of him can stand by and watch and save some mutant seeds, which can be regarded as worthy of their friendship.
Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat immediately broke out on Professor X's back, and his hands holding the wheelchair trembled slightly.
"Barnes, do you have a solution?" Professor X asked expectantly.
Bucky shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't have anything to do for a while, but there is a method that is not a method, maybe it can be useful." ”
"How?"
"Until we find a real solution, don't completely address the apocalypse and let him attract hatred for mutants."
Bucky's move can be described as a bit of a shady loss, you know, every day that the apocalypse exists, it is possible to cause considerable damage, but compared to the conflict between humans and mutants, in Bucky's opinion, those losses are also acceptable.
"This ......" The kind-hearted Professor X immediately fell into a dilemma when he heard such a proposal.
At this moment, a chaotic sound of footsteps sounded outside the door, and the door of Professor X's office was pushed open, to Bucky's surprise, it was the two sisters Anna and Kayla who came in, and at this time, both of them had worried faces on their faces.
"What's going on? You two aren't usually that frizzy. Professor X was not annoyed by the two women's breaking down the door, and still maintained a gentle smile.
"Logan, Rogan, he's gone, I, he, may be in danger."
When it came to her lover, Kayla was suddenly in a mess, and she couldn't explain things clearly after talking incoherently for a long time.
"That's right, yesterday there was a video of a saber-toothed tiger one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse circulating on the Internet, and Logan was very wrong after watching that video. The saber-toothed tiger is Logan's elder brother, and he has wanted to kill Rogan several times, but after Rogan lost his memory, he has no memory of him, and this time he watched the video of the saber-toothed tiger, and the hatred buried in Logan's heart seems to have been hooked out. Anna took the place of the nervous Kayla and continued: "Just now Kayla was a little worried about Logan, called him, but no one answered, we are worried, Logan has gone to find the sabertooth tiger." ”
Bucky and Professor X frowned at the same time, this just talked about handing over the saber-toothed tiger to Logan to deal with, but I didn't expect Logan to go by himself, if there is only one saber-toothed tiger this time, Logan still has to fight, but if the apocalypse and the four horsemen are there, even if Logan's self-healing ability is against the sky, I am afraid it will be more than lucky.
