Chapter 449: A Shocking Conspiracy
The shouts of the sword fighting were loud, and many people were alarmed, and when they looked over, they all showed the same expression as Alex, and their surprise was full of disbelief.
Alex's side was in shock, but the superheroes who supported him were all sober, and he didn't want to miss such a good opportunity, and he didn't think much about it, and catching Alex and the others was a wild beating.
Three or four fell in a few breaths, but fortunately, Alex came to his senses in time and used the energy shield to save these people at the last moment.
But even so, the superheroes who supported did not give up, and the rain of attacks fell on the energy defense shield, and the defense shield crumbled.
"Don't even fight!" Seeing this, Alex didn't care about anything else, looked up to the sky and roared, and a powerful psychic impact swept out regardless of the enemy or me.
Alex is actually the target who can control the impact of the mind, but in this chaotic and critical situation now, Alex can't care about that much at all.
Under the impact of the mind, except for Adam and Fighting Sword, no one could remain calm, and one by one they squatted on the ground with their heads covered.
"Are you a Skrull?!" Alex's figure flashed in front of the other party's leader, staring down into his eyes, his gloomy face revealing a faint nervousness and dazedness.
The leader snorted and looked up at Alex, his eyes full of resentment: "You're the Skrulls, your whole family!" The superhero couldn't think of other words for a while, and directly borrowed the words of the previous Avenger.
Alex's face changed slightly when he heard this, but there was no anger in his heart. There was only deep tension and confusion.
Adam walked up. Without saying a word, he took the soul stone and aimed it at the leader.
It turns out. The superhero is not in the Skrul disguise.
Seeing this scene, the person in charge also immediately came to his senses, regardless of the severe pain after the soul was peeled off, he stood up, looked at Adam with a face full of disbelief, and turned his head to look at Alex again: "Are you real?" "The efficacy of the Soul Stone is not for everyone
"Adam, you go check on everyone!" Alex gave Adam an order in a stiff tone and walked around the corner. I wanted to contact Charles as soon as possible.
But to Alex's horror, he couldn't find Charles, to be exact, he couldn't sense Charles's mental power.
Knowing that something was wrong, Alex immediately found Jean Grey, who was still at Base X.
"Jean, where's Charles?" As soon as Alex contacted Jean Grey, he couldn't wait to ask.
Jean Grey was stunned when she suddenly heard Alex's voice, then suddenly burst into tears and replied sadly, "Dead, they're all dead!" ”
"Dead?!" Alex was shaken. A violent momentum suddenly erupted from his body, and both Adam and Doujian, who were about to approach, were taken a few steps back.
Jean Grey could clearly feel the anger and confusion between Alex's words. Calm down, and quickly opened his mouth to explain. Jean Grey's mood fluctuates greatly, and the explanation is also intermittent, and there are many mistakes before and after.
However, Alex heard it well, and it was roughly the same as the situation on his own side, except that the casualties at Base X were even heavier. Alex clearly saw the situation of Base X through Jean Grey's eyes, the ground was full of corpses, Skrulls, X-Men, other unknown alien races, and even quite a few human corpses.
"Loki's target is the X-Men?" Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Alex was stunned for a moment and suddenly came to his senses, his face full of astonishment.
Although the Avengers are known as the strongest superhero group on Earth, they are definitely not as good as mutants in terms of background, after all, this is a whole race! And looking at all the mutant forces, the X-Men are undoubtedly the best among them. Because of Alex, over the years, the Hellfire Club, the Mutant Brotherhood, etc. have converged, but the mutant family is expanding rapidly, and the strength of the X-Men is obvious to all.
"Jean, what about Charles? Why can't I find him?! Alex is even more desperate to know about Charles, as he chases that he misjudged Loki's target.
For such a big mistake, Charles could not escape the blame.
"Professor X?" Hearing this, she pondered for a moment, shook her head and replied suspiciously, "I don't know, it was still there before the battle broke out. As she spoke, Jean Grey directed the surviving X-Men to recuperate and recuperate while searching for Charles's whereabouts.
It's a pity that after searching for a long time, even the corpse was rummaged through, and Jean Grey didn't find Charles's figure at all, and he disappeared with the storm girl Auroro who accompanied him.
"Alex, Charles, not found." Jean Grey realized that something was wrong, and contacted Alex as soon as possible, with a somewhat serious expression, "Auroro is also gone." ”
Alex's expression changed drastically when he heard this, and he pondered for a long time before replying: "Don't make a noise yet, organize the manpower, and we'll rush over later!" ”
After saying that, Alex immediately contacted Tony and the others who were far away in Stark Tower, and what happened to them was not much different from the Avengers base. It's just that Tony's lethality is not very strong, so they are still fighting until this moment!
"Stop!" Alex's telepathic voice instantly reached the minds of two groups of people, led by Tony and Captain America, and before everyone came to their senses, he immediately explained, "We have all been deceived, and you are not Skrull pretenders!" ”
One sentence made both sides of the melee stunned, but they did not relax their vigilance when they looked at each other, although there were no casualties after fighting for so long, they were all angry, and it was not so easy to put down for a while.
"Alright, don't have any mustard!" Alex's face was full of bitterness, and the telepathic voice directly gave an order, "Pack up, all members of the X base gather!" ”
At this time, Adam and Doujian approached again, looked at Alex who had returned to his senses, and looked at each other with a heavy face: "After inspection, none of them are Skrulls. After a slight pause, Adam thought for a moment and added. Neither do any of us. ”
After learning from Jean Grey that Charles is missing. Alex was already mentally prepared. Hearing this, he didn't show any surprise, nodded indifferently, and said disapprovingly: "Gather people, we are ready to break through!" ”
"Breakout?" Doujian turned his head to look at the secret crowd on the outskirts of the base, his face full of surprise.
"The entrapment plan has completely failed, and we must gather together as soon as possible and go to Base X." Alex nodded and explained solemnly. "Otherwise, sooner or later, they will eat it." Stark Tower is just a commercial building, and although it has been carefully remodeled by Tony, it is nowhere near as good as the X-Men's elaborate base fortress, and even the Avengers base that has just been renovated. Alex thought about it comprehensively, and then chose Base X as the meeting place.
Whether it is a superhero trained by ordinary people or a superhuman mutated by itself, if they really want to escape, under normal circumstances, no one can really stop them, let alone a huge team of heroes.
The superheroes of Stark Tower and the Avengers base. Easily broke through the encirclement, and then broke through all the way. Arrived at Base X without any danger.
When the two groups of people arrived at Base X one after another, looking at the corpses all over the ground, Tony and the others, who still didn't know the situation, were stunned, and looked at the dilapidated Base X for a long time without saying a word.
Base X looks ordinary, and from a distance it looks like an elite aristocratic school. In fact, the base has been carefully planned by the X-Men for a long time, and it is not only a training and practice base for the X-Men, but also a veritable war fortress. This is also the key to the fact that it still does not see any damage in the face of such a fierce attack.
"Alex, can you tell me what the hell is going on?" Steve has seen a lot of tragic wars, but this is the first time that a large-scale superhero battle like this one has been encountered, and the damage caused is simply unheard of, not to mention that many superheroes have died!
Alex glanced at some of the people he had specially found, coughed lightly, and said with a low expression: "I'm sorry to tell you the news, we were all deceived!" ”
"What do you mean to be deceived?" Tony had heard Alex's telepathy say this word before, and when he heard it again, he frowned again, and asked with a confused expression, "Is there something going on that I don't know about?" ”
Alex nodded hesitantly, and his gaze swept over the audience again: "If what I expected is right, the previous Professor X Charles Xavier is not his own ...... at all" said Alex took a light breath, and said with a slightly hideous expression, "It's the Skrul Pretender!" ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and immediately reacted, looking at each other in shock.
"What's going on?"
"How is that possible?"
Countless voices of this kind and that came and went, and the huge room was noisy, like a vegetable market.
"Do you have proof, Alex?" Wolverine Logan sat in a ragged corner, and when he heard Alex's words, he was silent for a long time and suddenly stood up, his tired face full of seriousness.
Charles is the current leader of the X-Men, and what he stands for is extraordinary. If what Alex said is true, even if this Charles is not Charles, it will still have a very bad effect on the X-Men and the mutant family. The reputation that the X-Men have accumulated so hard will be emptied in the first day!
Alex also knew this truth, although he really wanted to erase this matter, but the facts were indisputable, nodded obscurely, and said softly: "Although there is no definite evidence, it is already ninety percent certain." ”
Logan hesitated for a moment, shook his head with a wry smile, and sat down without saying a word, his expression a little gloomy. Although at Base X, Logan has always behaved like a child, but no one cares more about the X-Men and the mutant house than he does.
After listening to the brief conversation between Alex and Rogan, Steve and the others finally came to their senses, looked at each other in unison, and did not ask anything about Charles very tacitly, but instead asked Loki's question: "This has come to this, what should I do next?" What about Loki? ”
Alex's expression became more and more bitter, he shook his head and said with a depressed face: "I was rescued!" After a moment's hesitation, Alex explained, "A Skrul pretender infiltrated the base and rescued Loki while we were fighting. "The Skrull Impostor was able to infiltrate the base, apparently through Charles.
At this moment, Jean Grey pushed the door and walked in, her pale face without any blood, and her gloomy eyes filled with sadness.
"Are the casualties counted?" Seeing Jean Grey come in, Alex nodded and asked directly. With heavy casualties among the X-Men, Alex had to be ordered to put Jean Grey in charge of all the X-Men affairs for the time being, and let her start counting casualties at the three strongholds.
Jean Grey nodded, and said in a low voice: "The three strongholds have a total of one hundred and thirty-seven casualties, of which forty-three are lightly and seriously injured. Saying that, Jean Grey suddenly covered her mouth and forcibly held back the tears that came out of her eyes, and said in a loud voice, "The X-Men died a total of sixty-six people, including fourteen students, and no one was injured. ”
Alex felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard this, he knew that the casualties in this battle were huge, but he didn't expect it to be so tragic. This is not a battle between ordinary people, even if it is a battle between ordinary people, in the 21st century, such casualties are enough to make newspaper headlines! What's more, these people are not ordinary people at all, they are all superheroes with extraordinary abilities, and dying one of them is a huge loss for the earth, especially at this moment when people are in dire need!
At this moment, Alex's mood was particularly heavy, and his heart was full of guilt. For every casualty, he Alex has to pay a certain responsibility!
The rest of the people present were silent when they heard this, and their faces were sad, and many of them were also guilty like Alex, and their faces were occupied by anger, and they were red as charcoal.
After a long silence, Steve coughed heavily, attracting everyone's attention: "Now is not the time to grieve, we must fight and catch Loki as the culprit!" ”
"And Thanos!" Alex immediately came to his senses when he heard Steve's voice, his face was full of murder, and a terrifying aura came out of his body, and the few people sitting next to him couldn't help but tremble. Loki is hateful, Thanos is even more hateful, Thanos is because Loki is the effect, and both of them should be cut with a thousand cuts in Alex's eyes!
"The point is, we don't know where Loki is?!" Reed, one of the few people who remained calm, scanned the audience and asked a crucial question, "Portal, alien army, we have no news, we are completely passive!" ”
At this moment, Nick Fury's gloomy voice came out suddenly: "They have appeared!" "They, not just Loki, there must be an army of aliens behind him, and even Thanos!
"Where?!" Alex stood up suddenly, his expression hideous and terrifying.
Nick Fury smiled grimly, and a cold voice sounded faintly: "Loki is very high-key, the portal is located on the top floor of Stark Tower!" (To be continued.) )
