The white van starts, and if it encounters stones or pits along the way, it will be cleared by Lakri's telekinesis, and if there is no rain of fire falling in the sky, it will be stopped by Hansen's metal shield.

And just like that, another quarter of an hour passed, and the car stopped in front of a towering building.

Opening the door, Serena explained, "This is the largest building in the neighborhood, the Canberry Building. ”

"Below the 30th floor is for commercial activities, and above is the offices of the Canberry Group."

It is a tower of nearly 70 floors, with several floors below an oval like a bird's nest, and two corresponding towers on the left and right symmetrical points.

At this time, black smoke billowed from most parts of the building, and only a few of them were burning.

The most conspicuous is the center of one of the towers on the left, where a ring of flames directly covers the entire floor.

Serin counted carefully: thirty floors!

Turning to look at Serina.

The latter will know, and his eyes will be closed and he will feel upward.

After a while, his eyes opened again, but he shook his head and said, "My limit detection range is only a radius of 100 meters, and I can't sense it any farther." ”

"Could it be that all the people inside have fled?"

Lachry asked with a frown.

There were so many people in the whole building, he didn't believe that the fire and rain could burn them all to death.

Janice, the petite woman next to her, shook her head and said, "No, with the surrounding situation, where can they escape." ”

"It's more likely to be trapped at the top."

The others nodded in agreement.

"Let's go, let's go first."

Hansen was even more crisp and walked straight inside.

Everyone also followed one by one, the area of the hall was very large, the floor was polished stone, and the counters, doors and windows not far away were all made of fine products, and it was obvious that a lot of thought was spent in the construction of the whole building.

At this time, the hall was naturally no longer what it used to be, and the documents and belongings that could be seen everywhere on the floor made everything cluttered.

Looking at the scattered debris, Serin suddenly stopped

"What's wrong?"

Hansen, who was about to run to the upper floor, also stopped and asked reflexively.

Looking around, Selin spoke: "If the people at the top are trapped at the top, what about the people at the bottom? ”

"They weren't blocked by the flames."

But now there was no one to be seen.

"Underground!"

Serena continued.

After the fire and rain, she was the one who moved the people to the underground parking lot, where the stone beams were thick and the passage was open, allowing for entry and retreat.

This was an obvious thing, but it was only Qixian who was attracted by the flames of the upper layer that made her forget the exploration of the bottom.

"So what are you waiting for?"

At this time, Hansen also understood, and directly turned around and walked down.

After a few strides through the escape route, the group soon reached the underground parking lot.

"This..."

Seeing the scene in front of him, Ramk was dumbfounded and speechless for a while.

It's a parking lot, but the way cars are parked has changed, and it's stacked on top of each other until it reaches the top.

Looking at the pile of cars that seemed to be an abandoned yard, Serin smiled and said, "It's not a small hand." ”

Piling up cars as bricks can no longer be described as local tyrants.

"There's no way around it."

As soon as he spoke, another voice rang out almost at the same time.

Accompanying the voice appeared was a young man in a black suit.

The man slowly stepped out of the back of the car and continued the conversation just now: "If you don't do this, no one can guarantee that the building will collapse." ”

With a wry smile of helplessness, if they had a choice, they would not be willing to do so, but now that the retreat has been cut off, and the tower where they are located is crumbling, they can barely maintain a stable situation only by using local materials.

"You are?"

Looking at this man with a plain face but a sense of maturity and stability, Selin didn't feel much surprised and asked.

Regrouping his mind, the man smiled and said, "I'm the administrative manager of the Canberry Group, you can call me Kirk." ”

After introducing his identity, Kirk then asked, "I wonder why you have entered our company?" ”

Seeing that the other party said so frankly, it was not easy for Sailin and the others to hide it, so they also nodded their heads at the moment, and introduced the origin clearly.

"I see."

Knowing that Serin and the others had come to the rescue and assistance, Kirk's eyes flashed, and the smile on his face was even worse: "Thank you very much for being able to help us." ”

As he spoke, he bowed slightly and made a full salute.

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Selin waved his hand and said, "Just do what you can." ”

"I don't know what the situation of your company is now."

"Please wait a moment."

Kirk didn't answer immediately, but glanced around and said, "Come out." ”

As his words fell, a dozen heavily armed black figures dodged out from behind him.

His feet barely made a sound when he stepped on the ground, and he was clearly specially trained, fanning out behind Kirk.

Although the muzzle of the gun was not raised, the pressure on Serin was not reduced at all, and he recognized the weapon 'JT-45', also known as the air shuttle gun, whose attack power was no weaker than that of a bullet, and the air pressure of the shot was more suppressed with a range, which was specially developed by the Phoenix Base to deal with mechanical sentinels.

So the moment he saw the opponent's weapon, Serin's dark blue hair stood up directly, and the cold light of his sharp minions was faint, making an attack posture.

Hansen took a step forward directly, the gray fluctuations in his hand loomed, and in the blink of an eye, a metal giant shield appeared in front of everyone.

Several other people were also very vigilant and hid behind them.

Seeing that the other party was like this, Kirk hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, this is just a test, and we have no malicious intent. ”

"Hey! There are so many people in ambush, and you tell me that there is no malice? ”

Lakri, who was hiding behind, didn't listen to the other party's explanation, and sneered: "What kind of test is so exciting?" ”

As soon as he said that, his gaze was fixed, and his mental power was about to be activated.

"Wait!"

Selen's hand slapped him on the shoulder, stopping his attack in time.

"Captain, there are many people on the other side, now is not the time to hesitate."

Lachry stopped moving, but his face became more anxious.

Selin didn't answer his words, and turned to look at Serina beside him, with an inquiring look in his eyes.

Serina knew what the other party was going to ask, but she shook her head directly and replied: "Mental fluctuations cannot be detected, they should be equipped with interference devices." ”

Spiritual abilities are not invincible, and the various forces have never given up on developing targeted means.

Among them, the U.S. government is the most taboo, and has long developed a variety of countermeasures and counterattacks.

Although the Phoenix Base is inferior to the former in terms of research and development progress, it still has a basic spiritual jammer.

Although this is already a relatively popular thing, it is not something that any enterprise group can have, thinking of the weapon in the other party's hand, suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, Selin said: "Kirk, don't you want to give an explanation?" ”

When Kirk saw the tense Selin and the others, he also knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, and said truthfully at the moment: "Don't hide it, just before you came, a group of people had already come." ”

"They entered the building in the name of rescue and destroyed many of the company's important facilities while we were unprepared."

"Fallen!"

After listening to Kirk's words, Selin seemed to think of something, and said in a cold voice.

Hansen also said with disdain: "I didn't expect them to be so bold that they would dare to enter the island directly." ”

"Fallen?"

Seeing that everyone had this expression, Lachry asked suspiciously.

"You've just broken through, so you don't know yet."

Seeing his doubts, Janice, as the deputy team and steward of the original team, explained, "That's what we call mutants who are willing to become human minions. ”

"They roam the perimeter of Phoenix Island disguised as pirates, intercepting and destroying our ship's cargo at every opportunity."

Although the U.S. government did not have the energy to entangle with the Phoenix Island side, it did not stop there, and the harassment from the periphery has not stopped.

Although the mutants on Xavier's side have different concepts from the forces on Phoenix Island, they are ultimately for the sake of mutants, so the two sides are not as hostile as they imagined.

But it is a different matter for those who have taken refuge in the government, as a state force that has been suppressing mutants, the two sides can almost be said to be a situation of death and death.

It's even more hateful than the mutants under Lin Fei's command.

"Do you want them to continue to be so arrogant like this?"

Lachry was puzzled at this point.

"Of course not."

This time it was Selin who spoke, "It's a decision made by the Council of Elders. ”

"Every once in a while, we would go out and do a round up as a grind."

"Of course, the minimum standard is level two."

The Council of Elders is composed of nameless fourth-level mutants on Phoenix Island, responsible for handling daily affairs, and in the current situation, except for the Sentinel invasion, nothing else will alarm the Dark Phoenix.

"That's right."

Seeing that everyone had a general understanding of the situation, Kirk didn't explain more, and continued: "That's why I said that I need to do some testing." ”

"Yes."

After a moment's thought, Selin also knew that this was the only way to explain their identities.

With permission, the black-clad captain, who was standing next to Kirk, stepped forward and took out the black metal disc that was placed around his waist.

Place it in an open space between the two sides.

The jagged surface of the metal disc rotates and opens, forming a circular platform with a diameter of one meter.

Detection platform, every mutant who joins Phoenix Island will be implanted with a nano identity chip, which outsiders can't imitate.

Selin had experience and walked straight forward.

The moment he stood up, the originally dark golden metal platform suddenly shone with a layer of bright white light.

The fluorescence did not shoot outward, but covered Serin's body, as if it was about to penetrate through his navy blue hair.

"Tested complete!"

"No anomalies!"

As the mechanical sound continued to sound, others also passed the test one after another.

Seeing that Fang Guo was a member of Phoenix Island, Kirk was also slightly relieved, and said apologetically, "I was offended just now, please don't be surprised." ”

Although the governor of Selin and the others had a reason, they were treated as betrayers, and they didn't like it in their hearts, they were all silent, and Hansen's metal shield didn't even mean to put it away, and directly resisted on his shoulder.

Seeing this, Kirk could only smile bitterly, but he didn't say much, and led the way straight ahead.

"Please come with me."

Following Kirk's pace, the group soon came to a wide parking lot, and the surrounding vehicles had already been moved into the distance, forming a circular guardrail.

In the middle, there are countless tents, and the staff in suits come and go, busy.

Armed mutants in groups of four patrolled the road between the tents and tents.

Although the level is only level one, with the weapons and equipment on the body, even if you encounter a level three mutant, you can support it for a while.

Seeing this, Serin realized that Canberry may not be just a matter of mechanical facilities being damaged.

But since the other party doesn't say it, then he won't be bored.

Everyone came to a makeshift tent and looked at Serina, and after seeing the latter nod his head to indicate that there was nothing abnormal, Serin asked in a deep voice, "Now can I tell the truth?" ”

Kirk also knew that everyone's matter was urgent, so he didn't say anything politely, and said directly: "Just along the way, I guess you also found out." ”

"Most of the people gathered here are humans, and only me and the guards are mutants."

Selene nodded, relying on the werewolf beast sense, he found that from the beginning to the present, except for Kirk in front of him, who was a second-level mutant, the other mutants he saw were only first-level.

This is very unreasonable, a large group like Canberry should have at least one level 3 variant.

There are about three thousand mutants on the entire Phoenix Island, and a third of them have been recruited into the army to be responsible for the island's defense and security.

The remaining two-thirds are scattered across industries and control the lifeblood of the economy.

While mutants are forbidden to fight to the death in private, competition is otherwise encouraged.

These include military competitions and commercial competitions

Regardless of the final choice, every mutant who joins Phoenix Island must serve three months of military service before they can be freed.

The most famous in the army is the power race, which is a one-on-one battle between mutants, and the winner is included in the combat power list according to the ranking, which is used to define the strength of the mutants, and the mutants in different rankings will get different resource pours and different statuses.

For example, Selin is the sixty-third ranked mutant who once served as a team leader in the army.

Now retired and has become the captain of a mercenary team, with his past record and excellent mission completion, even among all the mercenary teams, he is also famous.

Another type of business competition is the competition between companies, and in order to obtain the prime minister of a commercial project, it is not only necessary to have sufficient funds.

There is also an annual grading competition on the island, where the top companies can gain a certain degree of advantage in some of the larger bids.

In such a competitive environment, even with superhuman mutant abilities, mutants do not dare to slack off, for fear of being surpassed and defeated by competitors, and everything they have will be in vain.
