Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
In Washington, D.C., a sky-high hurricane is roaring through the city, toppling the ground, crushing buildings, and plunging the entire city into a state of desolation.
In the sky above the hurricane, the black and oppressive clouds gave the whole city a breathtaking sense of oppression, and the sound of the wind whistled in the ears of every citizen, scraping on their faces, like pins and needles.
In the aircraft where the X-Men were sitting, everyone was deeply shocked by the scene in front of them, especially the hurricane that made them feel powerless.
"Oh! Oh, my God! The Storm Girl sitting in the driver's seat looked at the hurricane with a shocked face and couldn't help but exclaim.
"What's wrong, Stormgirl?" Professor Charles, who was sitting behind him, heard the exclamation of the storm girl and hurriedly asked, with a stern look on his calm face.
"No, I don't know, I can feel a strong force in that hurricane, and it keeps making the hurricane stronger." As a mutant who can manipulate the weather, she can clearly sense the energy changes inside the hurricane.
Stormgirl's explanation made Professor Charles's heart sink, and his face was unprecedentedly solemn, looking at Stormgirl and saying in a deep voice, "Can you stop it?" ”
"Of course!" Stormgirl nodded to herself, and then spoke, "However, it is too powerful, I need some time." As she spoke, Storm Girl's eyes were instantly covered with a white puff, and she moved her abilities.
As Storm Girl's ability moved, the overcast clouds in the sky seemed to receive some special traction and began to roll continuously, and the outermost part of the entire dark cloud began to slowly dissipate.
Feeling the change in the sky, Professor Charles's originally heavy heart eased slightly, but soon, his brows were tightly furrowed, and there was still a little helplessness on his face.
"Eric, what do you want to do?" Professor Charles suddenly sat down in his seat and muttered to himself, his words startling everyone on the plane.
Eric, is Magneto here too?
And Logan, who was sitting next to Professor Charles, felt that the bones in his body were a little itchy when he heard Professor Charles say these three words, and his heart was as tight as a cat's claw.
Magneto's restraint on him was so great that he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
And near the White House, not far from the hurricane, Magneto stood in place with four mutants, except for Magneto, the other mutants were all staring blank and standing there with a dull expression.
"Eric, what do you want to do?" One of them, a middle-aged mutant with a thin stature and slightly dark skin, wearing a denim suit with holes, spoke.
Seeing that his subordinates suddenly turned into stakes, Magneto, who had dealt with Charles for many years, naturally understood their current state.
"It's nothing, I just want to know what will happen if their leader dies at this time." Magneto said something shocking with an indifferent face, as if it was just a trivial matter.
Hearing Magneto's words, Professor Charles, who was sitting on the plane, changed his face slightly, and said persuadly: "This will only make things more troublesome, Eric, they have promised me that we will solve this matter......"
"Will the status of mutants be officially recognized?" Before Professor Charles could finish speaking, Magneto interrupted him with a mocking expression.
"Charles, I have to say that the increase in time has made you confused, who has always been wise." Saying this, Magneto showed a sneer.
"Don't you understand the faces of those politicians? They're just using you, what will they do when this thing is over? Did you forget what Stryker did so quickly? ”
"Moreover, we mutants never need the recognition of those humble ordinary people!"
Magneto's words silenced Charles, he knew that what Magneto said was likely to be true, but Professor Charles, who had been committed to peaceful coexistence with humans, still chose to believe them.
"As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will fight for it, even if it doesn't succeed this time, I can fight for the next time!" After a long silence, Charles spoke slowly.
"Ignorance!" Hearing Charles's words, Magneto snorted coldly, but he could only stay where he was, after all, if he broke into the White House alone, there would definitely be no return.
After restraining Magneto, Professor Charles turned to look at Stormwind, "We're running out of time, Stormwind. ”
At this time, the hurricane was getting closer and closer to the White House, and the clouds in the sky had dissipated a large area, and the whole hurricane had weakened a lot with the dissipation of the clouds.
"Give me a little more time, and I'll be right away." Hearing Professor Charles's urging, Storm Girl's face remained unchanged, and at this time, she had completely concentrated her mental power on the hurricane.
As time went on, the clouds in the sky dissipated faster and faster, and the raging hurricane became smaller and smaller, and when the last clouds dissipated, the hurricane dissipated like a rootless pine.
Once again, the sky turned blue, and beams of golden sunlight poured from the sky onto the earth, bringing a touch of life to the ruined city.
Seeing that the hurricane dissipated, the storm girl's eyes also changed back to their original color, her slightly darkened face was pale, and her whole spirit seemed a little sluggish.
"Mr. President, the hurricane has dissipated, we don't have to leave, we have a lot of things to deal with now." The president, who had just walked to the door of the White House, had just taken his first step when he heard a staff member hurriedly running from behind him to report.
Hearing the staff's words, Mr. President hurriedly looked outside, and the raging hurricane had dissipated at some point, and the sun once again covered the city.
"Okay, we can't sit still." Nodding, the president hurriedly returned to his office under the escort of security personnel.
"Contact the Senate for me!"
The first thing the president did when he sat down was to contact the members of the Senate.
Inside the X-Men's aircraft, Professor Charles withdrew the mental power that controlled Magneto's men, and glanced at the mentally unhealthy Storm Girl with concern, Professor Charles thought for a moment and commanded: "Let's go back, Eric is right, blindly forbearance will only make some people hurt our compatriots more unscrupulously, it's time for them to learn some lessons." ”
Although Professor Charles has always been committed to peaceful coexistence with humans, he is not stupid, and he will be manipulated at will, so that Cyclops will take over the driver's seat of Stormgirl, and then close his eyes and recuperate.
When everyone heard Professor Charles's words, they were all happy, although they had no objections to Professor Charles's decision before, but they would definitely have a bad idea about helping the political axe that hurt them.
And the target they are targeting is Hodge, which makes them even more angry, human beings have never done anything, blindly hurting us, but they still have to make them continue to pay, what is this called?
Not everyone is a Virgin.
The happy smiles of everyone also made the corners of Professor Charles's mouth smile when he closed his eyes and recuperated.
And Magneto, who was standing not far from the White House, looked at his subordinates who had just escaped from control at this time, snorted coldly, turned around and left! Leaving behind four of his men with blank faces.
If the president still follows the previous route and leaves the White House, he and his men can really kill him, but now there is no chance!
The White House's defense is not as simple as it is seen on TV!
On the other side, inside the Andurus Air Force Base, there was a fire!
Hodge, who paused in the air for a moment, the heat rays brewing in his eyes were like a flash flood, and with the momentum of thunder, it swept away the entire base in an instant!
Leaving behind vast scorched earth, billowing black smoke of metal wreckage, and only a pile of ruined buildings remained.
Listening to the pain of some of the surviving soldiers in the entire base, Hodge hesitated for a moment, and finally did not kill these disabled soldiers, and aimed at the next military base.
McKenna's 6th Army Base......
Naval Base Fleet ......
……
After destroying eight Washington military bases in a row, Hodge finally set his sights on the Bangor nuclear submarine base!
The importance of a nuclear submarine military base for a country is self-evident!
It is one of the important forces of a country to deter other countries, and the status of a country with nuclear submarines and a country without nuclear submarines is definitely not equal.
And Hodge set his sights on this base to let those people know that his anger is not something they can bear!
"The target swept through eight military bases in Washington in fifteen minutes, and is now pressing towards the Bangor nuclear submarine base! Have you decided to keep watching? ”
Inside the Sky Carrier, Hill looked at the pictures and information on the screen, looked at Fury, who had a calm face, and smiled bitterly, "In addition, the councilors have already come to contact the communication, do you want to answer it?" ”
"Connect, I want to hear what they have to say." Hearing Ciel's report, Fury sneered and looked at the computer screen with a blank face.
"Fury, as the supreme commander of S.H.I.E.L.D., why has the war started for half an hour, and we haven't seen your troops appear for a while." On the screen, a legislator who couldn't see clearly asked loudly after the communication was connected.
Hearing the councilor's question, Fury sneered in his heart, and said very calmly: "The other party's degree is very fast, and our planes can't catch up at all, but I think they should be ordered by some people to get to the Bangor base now." ”
Fury knew very well that there were many people inside S.H.I.E.L.D. who would not listen to him, so the people he sent out this time were not within his trust.
Fury's method is obvious, that is, in Hodge's explosion, all the internal instability factors will be squeezed out, and they will be sent to death!
Although this will greatly reduce the strength of the Aegis, it can allow it to be better developed.
"Are you accusing us?" The councillor's tone was very annoyed.
"No, I'm just stating the facts." Fury didn't take the councillor to heart, and his face was flat.
"So, do you have any solution to the current situation?" Just as the member was about to speak, another member spoke, and it was a woman.
Hearing the congresswoman's words, Fury's eyes flashed, "Now, there are only two choices!" ”
