Chapter 280: The Future of Mutants

"How so?!" Alex looked at Otto in disbelief, trying to tell the joke from his expression, but there was nothing unusual on Otto's calm face.

Otto looked at Alex, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and continued to speak: "Humans can never exterminate mutants, and mutants can't leave humans, humans and mutants are one and the same!" At this point, Otto paused for a moment and sighed, "Humans and mutants will eventually merge, this is a historical necessity. It's just that in the process, bloodshed and sacrifice are indispensable. ”

Although he doesn't like Otto very much, Alex believes in Otto's words very much. Hearing Otto's last words, Alex couldn't help but stand up excitedly, staring at Otto with sparkling eyes.

Bloody sacrifice Alex is not afraid, only afraid that there is no hope.

But in an instant, Otto's words completely extinguished the flame of hope that Alex had just ignited: "And this process is likely to last for a long, long time, thousands of years, or even a hundred thousand million years!" ”

"Thousands of years? 100,000 million years? Alex was dumbfounded, and felt the urge to rush up and beat Otto.

There is only a thin line between hope and despair, and Alex is hovering in it at the moment, a little dazed: "Otto, isn't there a way to speed up?" "The time measured in 10,000 years is beyond Alex's imagination, such a long time, even if Alex survives, he is afraid that he will be driven crazy, driven crazy by unpredictable reality.

Hearing this, Otto suddenly fell silent, and only after a long time did he speak: "I can only say this, and you need to find and discover the rest yourself." With that, Otto's body gradually melted away, and Otto's last meaningful voice echoed in the air.

Alex froze for a moment and took a deep breath. People also disappeared from the palace.

Reappearing, Alex arrives in the Lunar Blue Zone, the latest foothold in the Inhuman royal city of Atlan.

"Alex, why are you here?" Outside of the Inhuman royal palace in Atlan, Crystal is leading the Inhuman civilians to rebuild AtlΓ‘n when Alex appears. Rushed up to meet him, his face full of joy, "Alex, are you coming to see me?" ”

Alex looked embarrassed when he heard this, saying that since the crystal had been on the moon since she moved from AtlΓ‘n to the moon, Alex had never come to see her.

"I knew you weren't coming to see me!" Crystal could see Alex's thoughts at a glance, and she was sad, but she couldn't see anything on her face. Qiang smiled and slapped Alex on the chest, complaining and diverting the topic, "Say, what's the matter with coming to Atlan?" ”

Alex lowered his head slightly in guilt, not noticing the gloom that flashed on Crystal's face. Hearing the crystal take the initiative to mention it, Alex hurriedly raised his head, looked serious, and said urgently: "I'm here to find Black Bolt and Medusa." There is important matter to discuss. ”

"I knew you were looking for them!" Hearing that Alex is really serious, the crystal is not good to pester Alex again. Complaining, he pointed to the palace behind him without looking back, looking resentful, "Go ahead, they are all inside!" ”

Alex felt even more embarrassed when he heard this, whether to leave or stay. Stunned, he stayed where he was.

Seeing Alex's tangled appearance, Crystal was also a little embarrassed, and reached out and pushed Alex violently: "Go ahead, don't waste time here!" ”

"When we're done, I'll come back to see you!" Alex staggered forward. After stabilizing his body, he turned his head to look at the crystal, left a solemn expression, and then quickly walked into the royal area.

After a while, Alex saw the big dog tetanus squatting at the door, bored and drowsy.

"Hey!" Alex said hello to the maverick dog and walked straight inside, and the Black Bolt King, who was meditating, immediately opened his eyes with a terrifying glint in his eyes.

Meditation helps Black Bolt control over his abilities, and whenever he has free time, Black Bolt will close his eyes and meditate.

The Black Bolt King stood up and looked at Alex with a confused expression. Medusa didn't care about the surroundings, and the Black Bolt King naturally couldn't express his doubts.

Fortunately, Alex has telepathy and is trying to connect with the heart of Black Bolt and use it as a means of communication.

"We've fallen out with humanity completely." Alex smiled bitterly, took the initiative to find a place to sit down, and began to talk to the Black Bolt King.

After a long story short, Alex quickly came to an end: "I have decided to take the mutant house away from humans completely and build our own free city on the moon!" After stating his decision, Alex stared at Black Bolt and stated the purpose of his trip, "So, I hope to get Atlan's help." ”

The mutant house has been around for decades, but it can't be compared to the Inhumans. It's too difficult to build a city on the moon for mutants to live in, and it's like a fantasy.

The moon's climate, gravity, and other factors have a serious impact on the survival of mutants, and only having a city like Atlan can ensure the safety and normal survival of mutant homes.

The Black Bat King frowned, and after a long silence, he shook his head resolutely, and said in his heart: "The Inhumans are just picking up people's teeth, and the Inhumans themselves will never be able to build an AtlΓ‘n. ”

The technological level of the Inhumans is much higher than that of the humans on Earth, but this is based on the advanced alien civilization, and many technological Inhumans themselves have not fully figured it out, such as the protective shield and anti-gravity device on Atlan.

Listening to the Black Bolt King's heart, Alex was a little disappointed, but he also knew that the Black Bolt King was not lying.

Filled with disappointment, Alex confessed and turned to leave.

At this moment, Medusa walked in from outside and was surprised to see Alex: "Alex, are you really here?" I thought the crystal was lying to me! ”

"Hello, Medusa." Alex was in a depressed mood, smiled dryly and waved his hand as a greeting, and passed Medusa to go out to chat with Crystal before leaving.

Medusa looked at Alex, who was lost in his soul, turned her head to look at Black Bolt, and looked inquiring: "What's going on, Alex, what's wrong?" ”

Although the couple Black Bolt and Medusa have no telepathy, they have long been familiar with each other for decades, and they know what the other party is saying with a single look.

A brief introduction through Black Bolt's eyes. Medusa suddenly understood, turned around and called Alex who was about to walk out: "Alex, maybe I have a way!" ”

"Do you have a way? It's true? Alex was stunned for a moment, as if confirming Medusa's words, and then turned around sharply and looked at Medusa in surprise. But soon he looked gloomy again, "Thank you, Medusa, it's just Atlan......"

Before Alex could finish speaking, Medusa interrupted Alex's words with a smile: "It has nothing to do with Atlan!" ”

"Huh?!" Alex tilted his head and looked at Medusa with a blank expression.

"To build a free city for mutants, it doesn't have to be on the moon." Medusa's head moved slightly, and her red hair fluttered lightly, exuding a charming brilliance.

Alex thought Medusa would say something. But he didn't expect such an idea, he was disappointed, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "The earth has been covered by humans, and mutants have no place to hide. "Although the mysterious valley where the mutant house is hiding is very secluded now, Alex believes that it will not be safe forever and will be discovered by humans sooner or later.

"It's not Earth."

"Not Earth?" Alex looked at Medusa with a puzzled expression, "Could it be other planets?" But with our technology. There is no way to gain a foothold on other planets at all. "Going around and around, it's still not the level of technology in the mutant house. Interstellar immigration is not possible.

Medusa showed a confident smile on her face, and instead of answering, she asked, "Alex, what is the key to preventing you from surviving on the moon?" ”

"The Moon's climate, gravity, and more." Alex doesn't know much about interstellar immigrants, so he can only pick the key points that come to his mind and say them.

Medusa coughed lightly and said concludingly: "In general, it's the environment." An environment that is very different from the Earth. ”

"Uh...... That's what it means. Alex thought that this was true, if a planet had an environment similar to that of Earth, Alex would not have to worry about the adaptation of the mutant house at all, at most the gap between moving from New York to the Great Wild West.

"Then build a planet with an environment similar to the Earth!"

Medusa's words made Alex directly petrified, and even the Black Bolt King, who had always been moody, was rarely stunned. Even the big dog tetanus at the gate couldn't help but turn his head to look over, and the two dogs stared at the boss.

After a while, Alex slowly came back to his senses, turned his head to look at Medusa, and looked hesitant: "Are you sure you're not kidding, Medusa?" ”

"No kidding, of course, I'm serious." Medusa didn't seem to notice the expressions of the people and dogs present, looked at Alex and explained seriously, "Actually, building a planet is not as difficult as you think, especially for you. ”

Alex looked at Medusa seriously, and after making sure she wasn't joking, he didn't feel nervous: "Can you tell me more about it, Medusa?" ”

"The planet doesn't need to be too big, after all, it's just for your mutant family to live in." Medusa became an astrophyser and began to teach Alex how to build a planet, "Create another planet in the Earth's orbit, and if you build it properly, you can have the exact same environment as the Earth." ”

"Is that really okay?" Alex didn't know much about astrophysics, and the only little knowledge of gravity told Alex that what Medusa said was somewhat unreliable, and that the strong gravitational pull of the sun was very likely to suck the asteroid directly into the sun.

Medusa saw the suspicion in Alex's eyes, chuckled and explained: "This is a bit troublesome to explain, anyway, you just need to know that it is completely feasible to do so, as long as you strictly calculate and control the key data such as the size and mass of the asteroid." ”

"Uh......" Alex was silent, but he was still suspicious.

Medusa looked sideways at Alex and was a little depressed: "Still don't believe it?" ”

"I just think it's a little weird." Alex is not good at showing it directly, euphemistically explaining a sentence.

"Specific data or something, you go back to the scientists you know to study and discuss, and they will tell you." Medusa also knew that the plan she was talking about was shocking, so she didn't say this anymore, but pointed at Alex and said with a serious face, "Now, what I'm going to say is, you." ”

Alex couldn't accept it, and pointed to his nose in surprise, looking confused.

"Yes, you!" Medusa nodded, coughed lightly and walked over to a chair and sat down, explaining slowly, "The construction of an asteroid may seem easy, but it is also very difficult, and only someone like you who has the ability to control the magnetic field can do it. ”

Hearing Medusa mention of her magnetic field control abilities, Alex finally came to his senses.

In previous lives, the theoretical data on the construction of artificial asteroids was very complete and accurate, but it was almost impossible to actually do it. Because of the technological level of the earth in the previous life, even interstellar navigation was difficult, let alone building asteroids, and the materials for building asteroids were enough to make all earthlings speechless.

But for Alex, this question is not a problem at all. There is a vacuum in the universe, but it is not empty, but it is filled with a lot of interstellar dust, as well as countless comets and star fragments. Humans can't capture this, but Alex, who has a magnetic field control, can easily scavenge for materials to build asteroids.

Once the materials are available, construction is not a problem. With Alex's god-like comprehensive ability, it is possible to create life, let alone build an asteroid!

After thinking about it, Alex became more and more excited, and now the only concern is whether the asteroid can actually orbit the Earth. Alex doesn't have high requirements, he doesn't have to be exactly the same as the earth, it doesn't hurt to be a little different, as long as he can live safely.

"Thank you, Medusa!" With joy in his heart, Alex solemnly thanked Medusa. Medusa's suggestion is the equivalent of a reinvention to Alex, to the entire mutant house.

Medusa accepted Alex's thanks with a smile, and said jokingly, "I just hope that in the future, if the Inhumans are killed, you can give us a way out." ”

The construction of the asteroid is the result of Medusa's careful consideration, not only to create a better future for mutants, but also to leave a viable path for the Inhumans. The Inhumans need to grow, and an Atlan is no longer able to keep up with the growing population, especially with the addition of the new Inhumans.

"Definitely!" Alex said yes with a firm look on his face, and then left the royal area with a smile that could not be concealed.

Outside the royal area, Crystal was looking forward to it, and when she saw Alex coming out, she hurriedly ran forward, with a look of surprise: "What's the matter, see you like this?!" ”

Alex raised his eyes to look at the crystal, suddenly stretched out his hands to pick up the crystal, and shouted excitedly: "Crystal, mutants finally have a bright future!" (To be continued.) )
