Chapter 15: Chaos and War
As the saying goes: blessings are incomparable, but disasters are not singular. Xu Ye and the others had just eliminated a wave of strong enemies, and before they had time to catch their breath, a large number of more well-equipped mercenaries poured into the hall again.
"Evan, you go first, I can block these people for a while, at least they can't kill me!"
With that, Wolverine popped out his steel claws, intending to pounce on the new mercenaries.
"Don't shoot!" A short-haired old man in uniform suddenly stood up among the mercenaries: "Logan, is that you?"
Wolverine was stunned, in this old man, he found a sense of déjà vu, but he couldn't remember who the other was.
Although Wolverine didn't recognize who he was, Xu Ye did:
Isn't this General Stryker, the final boss in the movie "X-Men 2", and also the target of Xu Ye's [Side Mission 3].
"I didn't expect to run into you here again," Stryker said, "how many years have we not seen each other? 15 years? You haven't changed at all, but I'm getting old, nature." ”
"Who are you?" Wolverine asked, confused.
"Logan, I don't think it matters who he is. Shouldn't we find a way to get out of here first?"
Xu Ye tried to persuade Wolverine to do business first, but unfortunately it didn't work, and Wolverine still looked at Stryker with a face (wǎng) and a confused face.
In this way, General Stryker sighed at the mention of the past, and Wolverine listened with relish. The two staged a "touching" fate encounter in a hall full of corpses······
Suddenly, a wall of ice appears out of thin air, separating Wolverine from Stryker.
Xu Ye and Wolverine looked back, and it turned out that it was the Iceman Babi.
"Little Naughty and Katie are not worried about you two and have asked me to pick you up. Babi explained.
I don't know if it's an illusion, at this moment, Xu Ye looked at Babi, and suddenly a scene popped up in his mind where the queen mother pulled out her hairpin and waved her hand to draw a heavenly river······ It's all here.
Although Wolverine hesitated a little, he finally left here with the three rescued children with Xu Ye and Babi.
John the Burning Man gets two cars from the underground garage, and after some discussion, they decide to go to Boston first, where Stormgirl and Jean are carrying out the mission given to them by Professor X: to bring back the mutant who assassinated the president.
Wolverine drove a car with John and the three mutant kids who had been unconscious all the time (they were actually stunned by Tony's hypnotic gas) to lead the way, while Bobby drove another car, following with Naughty Kid, Katie, Xu Ye, and the pink-haired girl named Elaine.
Luckily, Elaine's ability is healing.
Along the way, under her careful treatment, Xu Ye's injuries quickly recovered.
What happened next was not much different from what was in the movie, at Bobby's suggestion, everyone temporarily came to his home to rest (Babi's house happened to be in Boston), but it attracted a siege of police, and then Burning Man attacked the police and overturned all the straw bag cops······
Anyway, all this was done by Wolverine, Bobby, and John.
Xu Ye chose to pretend to be stupid in a very low-key manner: it took him a lot of effort and eighteen donkeys to complete [Main Quest 2], but he really didn't have the energy to follow Wolverine and them to continue to die. Now he just wants to recharge his energy quietly and get ready for the next [Main Mission 3].
Fortunately, Wolverine finally contacted Storm Girl and Jean, and the second daughter arrived in time to connect everyone to the jet (jet aircraft) before everyone and the police went into a complete battle.
On the jet, in addition to Storm Girl and Qin, there is also a character that Xu Ye is very interested in: the Blue Devil.
In the comics, the Blue Devil's original name is Wagner Kert, and he is the child of the Witch and the Red Devil, who inherited his mother's skin color and his father's spatial teleportation ability. , it was the mutant who invaded the White House and attacked the president this time.
Xu Ye is quite enthusiastic about Wagner's spatial teleportation ability!
This ability to ignore the terrain barrier and jump directly into space is simply a necessary magic skill for home travel, killing people and goods, and escaping to save your life!
Especially for people like Xu Ye, who have been full of desire for freedom since he was a child, and often fantasize that he has directly grown a pair of wings, the ability of spatial teleportation is simply the most perfect fatal temptation.
Therefore, from the moment he got on the jet, Xu Ye continued to get close to Wagner in various ways, trying to brush out some hidden tasks from the other party, so as to learn his abilities.
You can't blame Xu Ye for having too much brain, after all, the setting in most games is like this: chat with NPCs first, give gifts, and then complete the daily tasks released by the other party.
When the friendship level is high enough, the other party will issue you a series of hidden quests, and after completing all the hidden quests, you can learn the NPC's unique skills.
And Xu Ye has been a game planner for two years, so he is naturally deeply affected by this routine.
"Hey, there, my name is Evan. Xu Ye took the initiative to step forward and say hello.
"Hello, my name is Wagner Kerter. "Wagner looked a little shy.
"Well, you look special. Xu Ye began to have nothing to say.
"People in the circus used to call me 'The Incredible Blue Devil'. Wagner said.
"What are these tattoos on your body?" Xu Ye asked, pointing to the strange patterns on Wagner's body.
"These are the totems that Archangel Gabriel brought to the world. (Actually, it is the mark of research and torture)," Wag said reverently.
"Do you have faith?"
"Yes, faith can bring courage and salvation, and in times of darkness I have experienced, faith ······ Therefore, I think everyone needs faith. ”
Xu Ye threw out the topic of "faith", and sure enough, he hit Wagner's words, so the large Smurf began to chatter and talk at length.
"But faith can't avoid war. Xu Ye put forward his own point of view in a timely manner.
"Perhaps, but war brings great chaos, and in the midst of chaos, people need faith more than ever. ”
"Chaos, war!" Xu Ye had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and there were words in his mouth.
Yes, faith can give us the courage to face chaos and pain, and with faith we have the strength to fight against it. Wagner's eyes were bright, and the more he spoke, the more energetic he became.
"If we want to prevent or avoid war, we need a hero, not a faith. Elaine suddenly interjected.
"No, a hero can also be a faith. Wagner retorted.
Xu Ye ignored their argument, but kept thinking about the conversation between the three of them just now:
"Yes! If you want to create chaos, what can be more direct and effective than a world-wide war? As long as you ignite the fire of war in this world, you can naturally achieve the effect of 'plunging the mission world into complete chaos' as Zhang Xuan said. ”
"So the question is, how can we cause war? Actually, Elaine is right, human beings really need a hero to avoid war, and this hero is Professor X! In the current X-Men world, war is almost imminent, if Professor X is killed, isn't war inevitable?"
Thinking of this, Xu Ye suddenly felt a chill, he didn't know why he had such cold and evil thoughts!
[Hint, you've triggered a special mission!]
[Special Mission: Kill Professor X, limited to one month.] 】
[After the mission is completed, you will receive a special reward, and there will be no penalty if the mission fails.] 】
The prompt of the glory terminal suddenly sounded in Xu Ye's ears!
"Damn, what are you kidding, kill Professor X, just rely on me?!!" Xu Ye's heart suddenly collapsed!
Who is Professor X, the founder of the Mutant School and the X-Men, one of the strongest mutants in the world. One-handed telepathy and mind control play superbly.
Letting Xu Ye fight him is purely to send him to death. Not to mention that Xu Ye temporarily has three times the soul strength and agility attributes of ordinary people, even if he triples again, it may not be useful to deal with Professor X!
Even so, the Glory Terminal still issued him the task of killing the X-Men, and there was no punishment after the mission failed, it is conceivable that if Xu Ye really killed Professor X, then the reward for completing the task would definitely be very considerable!
"I think we might be in trouble!" Stormgirl, who was operating the jets, suddenly said loudly.
