Chapter 488: What Mephisto Wants
"Ahh I'm so angry that I was run away by that guy again! ”
The angry and devastated Hum looked particularly noisy on this night, and Wanda kicked open the door and came in with a curse. Behind her were two Ghost Riders, whose depressed expressions were expected to be in vain tonight.
"Don't be discouraged, Mephisto will always be found now that he has confirmed that he is here." When Andrew saw Wanda, a smile appeared on his paralyzed face.
Ian on the side pulled Quicksilver with some gossip, "When did your sister hook up with Andrew?" ”
"If there is a man who insists on talking to you every day, cooking for you, feeding you water, taking care of you day and night when he is sick, and letting you scold and vent when he gets out of control, it is estimated that you will marry early!" Quicksilver rubbed his temples and replied with some emotion.
Ian raised his eyebrows, "If I lose control, I guess I will be hung up on what I can beat, this can't be the reason why I haven't married yet, right?" ”
Andrew ignored the ridicule of the two on the side, and directly asked about Mephisto's situation, and the two ghost riders looked at each other and said helplessly: "The aura left behind this time is very strong, we are almost certain that Mephisto just appeared in that place, but no matter how we look for it, there is no clue, as if this thing already knows about our existence." ”
Ian frowned and said, "Shouldn't you tell me from the beginning, I also have a unique experience in exploration!" ”
Magneto on the side paused for a moment and said, "Actually, it's not complicated, things have to start before the Darkseid War, when the large-scale disappearance of people has attracted the attention of local governments." It was definitely a time when there was a lot of noise, and mutants and superheroes everywhere were on the lookout for unusual events. And one of my Japanese subordinates suddenly came back with the news that Mephisto had been found here. ”
Ian asked, "What kind of traces?" ”
"We found that every once in a while, Mephisto released a strange energy in a different place, one that seemed strange to outsiders. At first, I didn't pay attention to it, until my subordinates reported the situation to Charles, who was able to identify Mephisto after remote monitoring with a brainwave intensifier. Because this strange energy is the reality gem energy that trapped a bunch of people in the Mutant Academy in the first place. Magneto said and looked at Professor Charles.
Ian nodded abruptly and asked, "Then why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Professor Charles shook his head: "That was the time to prepare for Darkseid. Compared to him, Mephisto is just a small character, and even if there is any conspiracy, it will not cause any harm to humanity or the earth, right? So at that time, we decided to wait until the immediate crisis was solved before arresting him! ”
"It makes sense." Ian said yes, then added, "Didn't Mephisto know that you were coming to arrest him?" Aren't you afraid that he will run away and leave Japan? ”
Wanda sat down with a snort, her pretty face screwed together, "I can clearly feel that the Reality Gem is still in Japan, and that old ghost Mephisto must still be here, but I can't find the exact location." ”
Ian winked at Andrew. I only listened to him explain: "Wanda and I have both been affected by real gems, so we are very sensitive to the energy of gemstones, but after coming to Japan, we found that the energy of gems seems to have changed a little from before, although we can still perceive it, but we can only determine a general range." And ......" Andrew paused for a moment and said with some seriousness: "I think Mephisto seems to be looking for something in this way, and this time the energy appears so vividly, I'm afraid he has found it!" ”
"Looking for what?"
Andrew was also a little confused, "This is what we have always been unable to figure out, Mephisto has been wandering all over Japan. Apparently well-targeted and within Japan. But what's the use of dissipating the energy of the Reality Gem? Could it be that you are looking for other Infinity Stones? ”
Ian immediately denied this, "No, the Time Stone is in the hands of Professor Charles, and it became invalid after being used by Logan." Both the Power Gem and the Space Gem are now stored in Asgard. Remove the Reality Gem from his hand. All that's left is the Soul Gem and the Soul Gem! As for the soul gem, I actually have some guesses in my heart, and it is basically not in Japan. Then only the Mind Gem remains. Then he looked back at Professor Charles, "But don't forget about the power of psychic perception. The professor is the one who has the most right to speak, and even Mephisto may not be the professor's opponent in this regard. Moreover, Professor Charles is also often in contact with time stones, and is already very sensitive to the energy of infinity stones. If Japan really has a soul gem, it will definitely not escape the professor's perception, where will Mephisto use that almost stupid method to find it! ”
The X-Men looked at each other for a moment and looked at the professor in unison, Professor Charles thought carefully for a while and nodded: "What Ian said makes a lot of sense, because of the relationship between the Time Stones, I can indeed perceive the rest of the Infinity Stones to some extent, but in Japan there seems to be nothing else except the Reality Gem in Mephisto's hand." ”
Hearing this, Ian continued: "Then the speculation about the Infinity Stones can basically be ruled out, and then the rest of the speculation." Let's not care what Mephisto is looking for, you said before that the old ghost's energy explosion is particularly obvious this time, and it is very likely that he has found what he wants. Then we should now focus on investigating the area of his burst of energy and see if there is anything worth noting. Uh, after talking about it for a long time, I still don't know what kind of place it is? ”
The expressions of the two evil spirit knights were a little weird, and Wanda smiled directly: "Isn't it the place where you watched the battle between the Silver Samurai and Shingen today!" If there's anything worth noting, it's this big war. ”
Ian couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "This ...... It really left me speechless, well, if only he would take the initiative to come to me! ”
Everyone smiled tacitly, and Charles said, "Mephisto won't be so stupid, I guess he is targeting the Silver Samurai or Shingen?" Among those people present, it seems that only the people of the Shida family may be hiding some unknown secrets! ”
Ian glanced at Logan and said, "If that's the case, then it's easy, just keep an eye on the two guys, Shingen and Silver Samurai." Shingen lives in the villa of the Yashida family, but it is easy to find. As for the Silver Samurai, it's going to be a trouble for Logan. ”
Logan just nodded when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, and the look of being full of worries made it difficult for everyone to say anything, but Diana, who had been listening quietly, thought about it and said, "There are not only Shingen and Silver Samurai at the scene, but also Mariko and Mio." I think Mio's ability is quite peculiar! ”
Ian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "Yes, when it comes to ability, Mio's ability to predict the future is indeed more attractive than that of Silver Samurai and Shingen." ”
"Foresight of the future?" Everyone exclaimed in unison, looking at Logan with a strange expression, "Why don't you say that you still know such a mutant?" ”
Logan was stunned for a moment and spread his hands a little depressed, "This...... Her ability is very weak, and she can often only see some broken pieces, which doesn't help at all! ”
Magneto was a little angry, pointed at Logan's nose and scolded: "Don't think that I can't teach you a lesson without metal bones in your body, and I'll beat you up if you're so careless!" ”
Charles also complained a little: "You can exercise if you are weak, none of us have come over like this." How can such an important ability be let go. ”
Logan raised his hands with a look of surrender, "Good, good!" I'm afraid of you, okay, I'll go to Villa Shida tomorrow and bring her back. ”
……
Just when Logan was being counted down by everyone, it was calm in the Yashida Villa, and Mio was changing and bathing Mariko, who was holding her head with one hand as if she was thinking about something. There was silence around, and there was not a trace of Mephisto.
At the same time, in a small Japanese-style building with black and white couplets, the black bat wings slowly opened, enveloping a young man who still had tear stains in the corners of his eyes in his sleep! (To be continued.) )
