CHAPTER XXIII

Looking at the treasure chest in his hand, Lu Chen's eyes were a little eager, but this was not the time to open him, Lu Chen would not use it immediately even if he found an advanced prop.

Lu Chen, who had absorbed the crystal nucleus before, had experience and knew that upgrading was not the end of two operations, the space would instill some rules in the contractor, and it would take time to absorb and comprehend those things, and the strength of the contractor in the absorption stage would be reduced a lot.

At that time, Lu Chen only absorbed two crystal nuclei and was half-dead for two weeks, this time it was something that Magneto exploded, and Lu Chen had to find a safe place to do it, so Lu Chen didn't immediately open his meaning.

Not long after Lu Chen came back, the demon girl also returned, and at this time, she didn't know the news that Magneto had died, and she was still thinking about a way to save Magneto.

Lu Chen did not reveal the news that Magneto had died, watching her work there, Lu Chen still had a place where she could be used, it was inconvenient to disclose, she could only find out by herself, I believe that with her intelligence network, it would not take much time to know, but it would not delay Lu Chen's arrangement.

Lu Chen has a clear plan on his side, and the Iron Fist side is chasing Lu Chen, and he will not waver in his heart, but the contractor on the X-Men side is a little confused.

Looking at the newly promulgated tasks in the space, they all looked at each other a little, and the most depressed was the bullet trio, at this time, the brute bull scratched his head in annoyance, and asked his two teammates with some puzzlement.

"What's going on with this mission, does the space want us to unite with that black robe?"

"Follow the mission prompts of the space, I'm afraid it is."

"Damn, what's the point of our previous fight. Play, what the hell is the space playing. ”

Bullets and music are recorded in troubled conversations. And the brains in this team are constantly thinking about why this happened.

Soon he had a rough guess. "Is that like this," he muttered.

Second, his expression was seen by his two teams, seeing him with such a look, how could the two people who were familiar with him not know that he had understood something.

The impatient brute bull had a straight personality and was the first to ask.

"What the hell is going on, don't lose our appetite, just tell us."

"Don't be in such a hurry." Despite that, he told his team what he had in mind.

"It seems that the contractors who came to this mission world are not only our two teams, but also other contractors who have come to this world, and the space has been ready for us to compete for hegemony from the beginning. Instead of the normal division into two teams and battalions to fight, although this space mission has the meaning of allowing our two teams to cooperate, there is still a difference between camps, and killing them can still get a bloody Rubik's Cube. ”

I have to say that he is still a little wise, and it is good to be able to calculate that there are three parties coming to him, but the lack of intelligence makes him think that the third party is the contractor who has already arranged the space, and he thinks that the space has long planned to let the three parties compete for hegemony.

But the truth is. The group of people who came in the end were completely chaotic and came to chase and kill Lu Chen, of course, none of this was the fault of that bullet. After all, he has too little intelligence, and no matter how smart a person wants to reason about something, he has to rely on intelligence, and there is no intelligence. Even Zhuge Liang has to be blinded when he comes.

"In other words, our two teams are still the same as before, and we can do what we need to do. We continue our mission. ”

The brute bull had a straight personality and used a deep voice to get up.

For brute bulls. The bullets are still very friendly, and he is on the front line in every battle, saving him, the magic gunner, countless times, and patiently explaining to him.

"Of course it's not that simple, the space gave a hint to let the two teams unite, obviously it won't be arranged randomly, the group of people who came at the end should be very strong, so strong that the space thinks that they are a team against us, and the two teams join forces."

"Now we can't do our mission anymore, and it's not a bad thing to join forces with them, but we don't need to help them, our mission with them is probably just the same one phase, and in the end we go our separate ways, and now we go straight back to join the X-Men."

"This time we all did useless work, and we would have accepted this task if we knew it."

They wanted to work against Lu Chen, that is, to establish their prestige in the team through Lu Chen's prestige, Lu Chen's strength was so strong, as long as they successfully stopped Lu Chen, they would have a lot of say in the team, and when they discussed it at the beginning, they also gained a lot of benefits from this proposal.

But these have become meaningless with the new round of tasks in space, and they have become useless against Lu Chen, doing useless work, and even forming a feud with Lu Chen, while the other contractors have become familiar with the X-Men when they are busy with this.

They have lost the opportunity, so when they said that they went back just now, the face of the bullet was obviously not very good-looking, and yes, no matter who it was, seeing that it was about to succeed, it flew away directly, and the face was good-looking.

This time, they were really pitted by space, no, it was better to be pitted by the Iron Fist.

Not to mention the few people who left, Lu Chen didn't have long in the room before the Demon Girl returned, at this time she hadn't found a way to rescue Magneto, and she didn't know that Magneto had died, however, Lu Chen knew that this was temporary, and soon the Demon Girl understood.

When the demon girl was in the room, Lu Chen had always been very honest, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, he was getting rid of his suspicions, for Lu Chen's honest behavior, the demon girl didn't feel it, the last time she entered this world, Lu Chen had always been very honest, she already thought that was Lu Chen's nature.

Only four hours passed, and as Lu Chen expected, the Demon Girl suddenly received a phone call, where the news of Magneto's death came out.

When she first heard the news, the Demonic Girl yelled into the microphone several times in disbelief, asking if it was true.

She was eager to hear the other side say that it was a fake news and that Magneto was still alive. But all this was already doomed when Lu Chen made his move, and Magneto died. It is impossible to be resurrected.

After hearing the clear answer, the Demonic Girl hung up the phone a little tiredly. The whole person was lying on the couch, and Magneto's blow was too big for the demon girl.

Seeing her heartbroken appearance, Lu Chen also felt a little guilty in his heart, but soon, these guiltes disappeared, and now there was no time to feel guilty for him.

Lu Chen walked directly to the demon girl who collapsed on the sofa, although he knew what something hit the demon girl, Lu Chen still asked a little hypocritically what was going on.

"Magneto is dead, and we're all finished. Mutants are going to be finished. ”

Lu Chen's question made the demon girl raise her head, she laughed a little crazy, but the content of her words was shocking, however, her words were not wrong, without Magneto's words to deal with General Shrek, once General Shrek's plan succeeded, the mutants would indeed be unable to escape this catastrophe, and it was very possible for them to die all.

"Magneto is dead. How could it be, how could he die if he was as powerful, damn it, could it be that group of prison guards. I'm going to kill those guards and avenge Magneto-sama. ”

As soon as the Demon Girl's words came out, Lu Chen and the poisonous snake both showed a frightened appearance, of course, Lu Chen's surprise was completely faked. It's just to keep the demon girl from suspecting.

However, the serpent's surprise was real, and he secretly glanced at Lu Chen. Seeing Lu Chen's surprised expression, she already understood that all this was not so simple. Lu Chen must have done something in it.

If the enemy did this, there was no need to suspect that there must be some conspiracy, but Lu Chen was her companion, and the viper understood that it was Lu Chen's layout, although she knew some clues, but she also followed Lu Chen's instructions and did not show a trace of flaws.

It's just that at this time, she also felt a little bitter in her heart.

"I don't know anything about such an important thing, and sure enough, am I still an outsider to him?"

The bitterness in the snake's heart Lu Chen didn't know that Lu Chen was acting like a rampaging mutant at this time, and his abilities were also a little leaked, and his expression of murderous intent was fully revealed, as if he was going to that prison to kill those guards immediately.

However, all this was stopped by the Demon Shape, as Magneto's side deputy, she was not so easy to defeat.

In the past few minutes, she eased her atmosphere, and then yelled at Lu Chen with some annoyance: "Shut up, now is not the time to talk about this. ”

After a pause, her voice softened a little: "Since it was the information given by that person, it is basically certain that Magneto-sama's death has been confirmed, he will not joke about such a thing, now it is time to think about what we should do." ”

"What to do, of course, is to avenge Lord Magneto and kill all those guards."

"After Magneto's death, it has been taken over by the military, and we are now going to die."

"Then we'll wait here, we have enough time, and I don't believe those soldiers have been lying in prison and not leaving." In the past, Lu Chen showed the supremacy of mutants, and when he spoke at this time, he showed no good impression of ordinary humans, making people think that he was a person who would fight if he didn't agree with him.

"We don't have time right now, let's be honest, Shrek has prepared a plan to exterminate mutants, I came here to rescue Magneto so that he can stop this plan from working, if Shrek succeeds we will all die, the prelude to this plan is almost complete."

Magneto was imprisoned at an early age, but the Demonic Girl has not come to rescue Magneto until now, which is of course due to the tight prison defense some time ago, but the more reason is that the Demonic Girl is unwilling to take such a big risk, she is very loyal to Magneto, which is indeed true, but she is still a little hesitant to give her life to rescue Magneto.

The reason why she didn't hesitate this time was because she learned about Shrek's plan from a channel, and she was ready to let Magneto go out of the mountain in order to save her life.

"How is it possible, are you sure that this plan is true." Lu Chen was a little panicked.

"I'll lie to you about such an important thing."

Hearing the Demon Girl's words, Lu Chen muttered back in disbelief, and sat on the sofa behind, a little lost like the Demon Girl, as if he had no backbone.

Seeing that Lu Chen and the demon girl were a little silent, the poisonous snake in the room couldn't stand such an oppressive atmosphere, so he asked cautiously.

"What are we going to do now?"

Her words, Lu Chen turned a deaf ear as if he hadn't heard them, and finally the demon girl spoke.

"Now that Lord Magneto has passed away, there is no point for us to stay here any longer, now go back to our base first, and plan for the long run, I also want to find some helpers, this time it is a disaster for all mutants, and those people can't escape."

She's talking about the X-Men, who are divided into two camps with different philosophies from Magneto, but they don't want their kind, mutants, to all die.

And they don't want to die themselves, and at this time, the demon girl goes to them and tells them the truth, and now cooperation is almost a thing.

In this regard, of course, Lu Chen was meaningless, Lu Chen agreed, and of course the poisonous snake was also very obedient, and soon, Lu Chen cleaned up the room with the demon girl and left the tavern.

However, halfway through, they separated, and Lu Chen, under the pretext of having a grudge against the group, asked the Demon Girl to meet the X-Men alone, while Lu Chen himself stopped at a hotel in a place.

The reason why Lu Chen didn't go over was very simple, he was afraid of fighting with the contractor on the other side, Magneto had been lost at this time, and Lu Chen's side did not have the combat power of Magneto, but the contractor on the opposite side found a lot of X-Men, and these X-Men had a bad impression of Lu Chen.

In this case, it is really possible for Lu Chen to fight with that group of contractors in the past, although the two sides have a tendency to unite, but Lu Chen and them are still two camps, and they have not fused.

The current X-Men world is like the Three Kingdoms Hegemony, Lu Chen and that group of contractors are weaker than Iron Fist, they can be regarded as Wu and Shu, and Iron Fist is strong, like Wei.

Now under the threat of Iron Fist, Lu Chen is willing to form an alliance with the other side, but seeing that Lu Chen is weak, they will not let Lu Chen go, so it is best not to meet at this time.

After the demon girl left, Lu Chen lived in the room with the poisonous snake, but this time it was no longer a single room, the poisonous snake was one by one Lu Chen, and as soon as the room was divided, Lu Chen said to the poisonous snake that he had something to go out and asked her to wait in the house.

The poisonous snake was originally going to follow, but Lu Chen refused, and what he was doing now was not good for the poisonous snake to watch.

Seeing Lu Chen's departure, the poisonous snake was also a little depressed, she also knew that this would not work, several times it was Lu Chen who acted directly, the poisonous snake could do very little, if it went on like this, one day, Lu Chen would abandon her, although she knew this, the poisonous snake was still a little helpless, after all, her strength was too low, and the help she could provide to Lu Chen was indeed too little, and the current training could not spare too much time.
