Chapter Sixty-Six: The Erosion of the Battle
Zhang Xuan returned to the familiar Howling Commando camp and was surprised to find that there was no one in the entire camp. searched all over the camp, but didn't even see any trace of Carter: "Have you all gone on a mission?" ”
With a heart full of surprise, Zhang Xuan came to Howard's laboratory again. The laboratory seems to have expanded several times compared to before, all kinds of instruments are piled up throughout the laboratory, and there are many more people coming and going, most of whom Zhang Xuan doesn't know.
finally grabbed a scientist who had several relationships, and Zhang Xuan opened his mouth and asked, "Where is Howard?" ”
"Hey Alex, you're finally back!" The scientist with glasses looked up at Zhang Xuan for a while before he recognized it clearly, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face: "Command, they are all in Command." ”
"Thank you!" Alex thanked him, didn't rush to the headquarters, and turned back to the camp, ready to wait for them to return.
It wasn't until late afternoon that Steve and the others showed up at the camp with tired faces.
Seeing Alex, Steve couldn't help but have a smile on his face: "Alex, you're back!" There was a deep joy in the plain words.
Alex looked at Steve and nodded heavily, reached out and gently patted Steve's shoulder, with a relaxed smile on his face: "Well, it's back." ”
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!" Steve said twice in a row, and couldn't wait to throw the burden on his shoulders to Alex, "In the future, this captain, you will do it!" ”
"The captain is yours, and no one can change it!" Alex saw that Steve was really tired, and comforted softly, "We are brothers, I will always stand behind you and support you." ”
"Alex, it's great that you're back." Carter's face was particularly tired, and his originally radiant skin had become dull, "We really need you!" ”
"I see it's the same when he's not there." As soon as Carter's words fell, a thorn jumped out, and his rebellious face was full of disdain.
Namor, Alex turned his head to look at the name. At the beginning, because his mind was above Huaxia, Alex ignored this person who repeatedly provoked him. But not now, Alex is going to return to the Howling Commando, and some of the powers have to be erected.
Alex squinted at Namor, full of disdain, and spoke in a very flirtatious tone: "You are the mermaid king, Namor?" ”
Alex's disdainful eyes and flirtatious tone succeeded in infuriating the thorn, and Namor rushed up without saying a word, and smashed a pair of fists at Alex without hesitation.
"Is that all you can do?" Alex didn't dodge or dodge, Namor's fist came to him, and the expression on his face became more and more disdainful, "Too weak!" ”
Namor's face changed several times, how strong his strength was Namor knew very well, Alex could take his fist unscathed, which made his heart a little frightened.
Alex's copying ability is known only to Steve's members of the original Howl Commando, and Namor, Torchman, etc., who later joined the Howl Commando, are not known.
Taking advantage of the fact that the copied absorption and the ability of the sun fire were still there, Alex made a bold move: "Let you see how powerful I am!" Fuchsia flames burst out, and before Namor could react, they quickly enveloped him, but did not hurt him.
Namor was terrified, although the purple-red flames did not burn him, but the blazing flames made him almost breathless, and the burning pain made him want to scream.
"It's just a lesson, stop trying to provoke me!" Alex put it away when he saw it, put away the flames, glared at the slightly sluggish Namor with a cold gaze, then turned his head to look at Steve again, and asked with a little confusion, "You went to the headquarters today, did something happen?" ”
Steve and the others glanced at each other, sighed in unison, and looked depressed: "The balance of the war is seriously tilted, and our chances of victory are getting smaller and smaller!" ”
"What happened?" Alex looked at everyone in surprise, and he couldn't help but feel a hint of foreboding in his heart. They are all experienced in a hundred battles, and rarely show such pessimistic emotions, but at this moment, it is clear that the situation has deteriorated to the point of no return.
"The Hellfire Club is fully involved in the war, and more and more mutants are appearing on the battlefield, and most of them are level three or four mutants, and their strength and abilities are very strong." Carter was the one who knew the battle situation best, and introduced with a wry smile, "In just two days, 100,000 Allied troops were killed, and the front line was even more defeated, leaving us with less and less room for manoeuvre." ”
Two days, one day and one night yesterday, plus one day today, Alex is in Huaxia, and he doesn't know what happened in these two days and one night, and when he heard Carter's words, he showed an expression of disbelief, when did Sebastian Shaw become the boss of the Hellfire Club again?
"After Shaw was rescued, he soon appeared on the battlefield with more and more powerful mutants." Steve knew what Alex wanted to ask, and without waiting for him to ask, he explained, "We were defeated without much effort, and with us a hundred thousand Allied troops. ”
"It's really Sebastian Shaw!" Alex's face became strange, Sebastian Shaw joined the war, wasn't it just his personal behavior, it had nothing to do with the Hellfire Club? What's going on now? Could it be that Straker lied to himself?
"With that teleporting Red Devil here, he's become even more difficult, and there's nothing we can do about him." Logan nodded, and said impatiently, "I can't beat it, I can't catch it, it's really depressing!" ”
Letting go of the plan to go to Straker immediately, Alex quickly entered the state, his face turned slightly, and asked solemnly, "Did those big guys in the command say anything?" ”
"In view of the strength of mutants, the allies are ready to recruit more superpowers, mainly mutants, and form a new team to deal with the mutants of the Hellfire Club." Carter repeated with an expressionless face, his voice even more monotonous, "This is an order from the command, and it is also the most effective method we have come up with at the moment." ”
It is indeed a good way to deal with mutants with mutants, but the Hellfire Club, as a veteran force of mutants, has countless mutants under its command, and the powerful ones are comparable to myths. Trying to use mutants against them, as far as Alex is concerned, the success rate is extremely low, and it is easy for the Hellfire Club to take advantage of it, and then it will be even more troublesome.
Noticing that Alex's expression was wrong, Steve and the others, who were familiar with him, immediately reacted, looked at Alex and asked in surprise, "Alex, are you not optimistic about this plan?" ”
"Not to mention whether we can recruit more superpowers, and even if we do, how long will it take them to adapt to the war?" Alex shook his head and said with a bitter expression, "Time is now in the mustache's favor, we can't afford to wait." ”
The same reason, Steve also knows, but he can't think of any other feasible way. Seeing Alex's expression at this moment, he immediately became excited, pulled Alex and asked excitedly, "Alex, do you have a better way?" ”
Alex shook his head when he heard this: "What can I do?" Let's meet them first! ”
ps: The two chapters are passed together, don't miss it.
ps: The trip to China is basically over, and many students in the book review area are very incomprehensible about this trip to China, and feel that Scorpio is purely venting for the sake of venting. To be honest, this paragraph, Scorpio didn't write well, and many of the things he wanted to express couldn't be expressed accurately, and Scorpio was also very sorry. But fortunately, a few pits have been buried, and we will see for you later.
