The sun began to turn westward.

On the train to Providenden, Remy Lebau sat comfortably in a single berth with a $10 change.

In addition to a long, narrow bed for one person, there is also a miniature dining table and small sofa, which is quite comfortable for a two-hour excursion.

The United States had the world's largest railroad system in the last century, but since Howlett Industries introduced the internal combustion engine car in the late 19th century, the railroad mode has begun to shrink rapidly.

Here, people would rather drive a whole day to travel across states than sit in a tin compartment for half a day.

On the one hand, the well-developed highway system and high-speed traffic regulations have greatly shortened the difference between cars and trains, and even more often it is more convenient and faster to drive than to take a train.

On the other hand, the land here is sparsely populated and the scenery is unique, which has given birth to a first-class highway culture. People like to hold the steering wheel and run freely on the endless road.

This is the American worship of freedom.

Not to mention that on the short journey from New York to Providenden, there are only a handful of "train fans" who are willing to spend time in and out of the stations on both sides.

Remy Lebo lay on the cot in the private room, twisting his waist from side to side, grinning in pain.

He was too lazy to take off his boots and coat, and he was at the station in just over an hour, and thinking about the taxi he was going to take to meet a client, Remy missed his beloved Dodge muscle car.

"Damn boy! Anyway, I have taken a look, and I don't talk about the rules of the road..."

Mr. LeBeau's favorite car a few years ago, the 70-year Dodge Challenger, was melted into scrap metal by the "shockwave" Alex, and he almost had a fight with the executive of the "Whip of Order" in downtown Manhattan.

However, it was precisely because Alex Summers was afraid of making a move in the city center that Raimi was given the opportunity to blend in with the crowd and escape all the way out of New York by train.

With his hands folded under his head, Remy looked at the iron ceiling of the carriage, his eyes faintly reddened for a moment, and he took out two tubes of light blue serum reagents from the inner pocket of his trench coat.

I shook it vigorously for a while, and watched the fine blue bubbles inside slowly rise upward.

"Big customer, if it weren't for the price of millions of dollars, I really wouldn't dare to touch this thing, and take the goods from under the nose of the whip of order, hehe! That is, I'm the card emperor, adults have this ability! ”

"Pai King" Remy Lebeau, a mutant thief who sometimes walks alone and sometimes gathers his accomplices to commit crimes. His business is not fixed, sometimes he steals valuable objects out of interest, and sometimes he is hired to accept various bounty tasks.

And this time, Mr. Pai Huang received the biggest deal he had ever encountered in his life-

Steal the Super Soldier Serum from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Strategic Technology R&D Department.

Fortunately, the relevant intelligence information given by his employer was extremely detailed and complete, otherwise he would not have been able to escape from there, and the intelligence department of S.H.I.E.L.D. would have worn the same pants as the whip of order.

Remy dug in again, and found a card with whitish curls at the corners and some unclear handwriting, with an H-shaped emblem and the words of the Howlett Group on it.

If he had accepted the invitation of the "Magneto", he might now be an order executive with a "murder license".

Remy Lebo fantasized for a moment, cynically hooked the corners of his mouth, sneered a few times, and handed over the goods. He had to avoid the limelight for a few years and go to Europe to have some fun.

"Seriously Hank, I didn't expect to be able to stand here with you again, we've all changed a lot... Ahem, of course... You're bigger. ”

Professor Charles Xavier and Hank McCoy stand at the gate of the Whip of Order headquarters in Manhattan, New York, where the Mutant Force Research Unit was located.

Time has passed, and one of the two is not as high-spirited as it was back then, with long hair fluttering, and one ... It has become a majestic and hideous blue-haired beast.

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Department of Occult Routine Affairs and Strategic Technology R&D are about to move to Washington, D.C., and a trilogy is being built on Roosevelt Island

In addition to scientific research, the Wing Building will focus more on social cooperation with the countries of the world on occult affairs.

The most important of all, the Superintendent Monitoring and Intelligence Division, remained in New York, closely aligned with the Whip of Order's mission.

James Howlett not only took the armed forces of the transcendent realm of America into his own hands, but also withdrew S.H.I.E.L.D. from the most important part of its strength and power.

"Actually, we've all just become what we should be, Charles, don't you think the best brains in the world should... I'm sorry..."

Hank grinned stupidly at Professor Charles's unkind gaze, his now lion-faced and bear-like appearance showed such a look, inexplicably a little cute.

It's no wonder that the little wolf girl always likes to be with Hank, just like an ordinary little girl likes to hold a stuffed doll every day.

Charles shrugged helplessly, his bald head and a silver-gray close-fitting suit, he looked a little more cold than at the beginning, he frowned, and followed Hank into the building.

"What the hell happened to you with Mr. Howlett, how could it... There is such a big change. ”

Hank walked bare-footed through the sword-shaped floors of the Whip of Order, telling Charles how he had become a "beast" over the years.

The two met many staff members and members of the enforcement team along the way, some smiled and greeted Hank, and some just glanced at it hastily and did not stop too much.

“…… Knowing that my [mutation] was only a half-finished product, I came into contact with the evolutionary system founded by Mr. Howlett, and his understanding of the physical and spiritual opened up an evolutionary path that ordinary people could also take.

“

“… Not long after practicing with Alex, there were signs of abnormal changes in many parts of the body... Hey, Skylar..."

Hank raised his knee-high arms and greeted a tall, heroic female executive with a grin, looking back from time to time.

"You know, mutants have a herd effect, Mr. Howlett took me to experience the state of real battle a few times, and after seeing his beast-king-like spirit, I finally recognized and accepted myself for who I really am."

The beast looked at Charles and shrugged his shoulders and whispered in a dull voice

"I can control the deformation of my body now and keep it the way it was before I woke up, but... There's no need for that anymore, is it, and here we are, it's not the same as what you've used to use. ”

Charles has been silent since he entered the building, listening to Hank's new life experiences over the years, watching the expressions of everyone in the Whip of Order, especially now Hank with a down-to-earth generosity that he has never seen before.

He had to admit that Mr. Howlett was the one who really did it for the mutants.

Groaning and finally arriving at the job he was very familiar with, Charles looked at the newly built brainwave amplification chamber with mixed feelings.

"The scientific team at the Howlett family helped me improve a lot of the original design, especially Dr. Zola, who... He's a pure science maniac, the kind he doesn't let go of...

“

Hank's undulating movements are like a combination of an orangutan and a feline, and he walks forward to introduce Charles to the new brainwave amplification equipment.

"The new amplifier and brainwave helmet created by vibranium, powerful and clean, almost perfect Rubik's Cube energy, hehe, only you can feel the effect and difference, by the way, and this, Lady Emma proposed to design, specifically for mutants who frequently use telepathic power to regulate mental pollution."

This is a spherical building with a radius of nearly fifty meters, and a covered bridge made of silver-gray alloy leads to the most central point of the space, a 360-degree brainwave amplification net assembled by vibranium splicing, and the wisps of ice blue energy lines are covered on it.

At the end of the bridge is a black high-backed alloy chair, and a full-coverage hollow brainwave helmet is eerily suspended on the operating table in front of it.

"These..."

Professor Charles subconsciously shrugged his throat, the scale and technical content of this set of brainwave amplifiers are full of exaggerated sense of separation from the times to the naked eye, as if they are alien creations in the future or some kind of science fiction story.

"These are Mr. Howlett for more than a year

He was told to prepare, and he believed that you would accept the job. ”

Hank hugged his muscular plush arms, filled with pride in the new brainwave amplifier.

"Ahem! Mr. Xavier, now that you've arrived, do you want to get a feel for your work in advance? Hey, Hank. ”

Raven's red-haired and blue-skinned appearance, I don't know if it's a change or a real thing, wearing a white women's suit and professional clothes, and even a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, quite capable and neat.

She teased Charles, holding a stack of papers in her hand and greeted Hank.

"Peggy will talk to you about your position and other specific details when I go back, the whip of order is almost all out of the field executive team, and to this day there are few serious civil and daily government leaders, and Peggy and Peggy have been in charge of it at the same time."

"Then will my salary depend on your nod from now on, Vice Minister Raven."

Charles said happily as he saw that Raven, who had become a mother, and also had his own career.

"In the future, you will be busy, the daily affairs of the Whip of Order will be handed over to you, Steve is mainly responsible for all the task force tasks and field work, and only when there are more important and difficult situations to solve, you will need to take action, such as this one now."

Charles took the folder in Raven's hand, and in the upper left corner there was a photo of a very handsome man about thirty years old, as well as information about "Pai Ei".

………

The capital of Rhode Island, Providen.

Pai Huang was a few hundred meters away from the agreed delivery place, the harbor of Narraganset, cautiously observing a man in a black trench coat who was suspected of receiving the goods.

Above the clouds, the sonic plane of the Whip of Order had already arrived with Alex Summers' squad carrying the "Shockwave".

After receiving the latest information from Raven, he has just learned that Captain Rogers will also be coming from Chicago to capture the Emperor.

Alex, who has matured a lot, has grown his hair long, wears a black executive uniform, and his face is becoming more resolute and calm.

If it weren't for the fact that the range of energy in the form of his own shock wave was too large, and the "Pai King" was slippery and unwilling to fight head-on, he didn't feel that he needed help from others.

Remy Lebbo sat reclining on a bench in a square, and after observing for a while, everything around him was normal, and there was no sign of an ambush.

Lebo, who is already quite good at his own ability, has not changed the cautious style he has cultivated since childhood, he spit out the chewing gum that has been hardened, patted his pocket, and just got up, a dark red light suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes, and a faintly flickering energy light film suddenly floated on his body.

Pai Huang's eyes were glazed for a moment, and then he immediately turned around, and ran away without hesitation, giving up the joint.

At the same moment, Professor Charles's voice sounded in the minds of Steve and Alex.

“… I'm sorry, but Mr. Pai-Huang's abilities are even richer than what is provided in the information, and he has some kind of energy in his body that seems to create mental isolation, which makes it difficult for him to be directly controlled by my mind. ”

On the clouds, the two flying machines of the Whip of Order have met, and Steve felt the communication at the level of spiritual consciousness for the first time, and while he was curious, he silently said in his calm heart:

"Don't mind Professor, I thought this mission was completely out of fun after hearing you join, it seems that there is still a chance for me to make a move, can I guide us to the position of the Pai Emperor?"

"Of course, Captain Rogers."

Charles said in a deep voice in the brainwave amplification chamber thousands of miles away.

Rumble!

Two sonic planes burst into a wave of air, and in an instant, Steve fell directly from a high altitude, with a pale red energy streamer all around him, and he was smashing in front of the fleeing Pai Huang.

"Remy LeBeau, you are being arrested by the Whip of Order for breaking into the Federal Confidential Department and stealing high-risk items."

Steve jumped out of the hollow earth and rocks, and talked about the arrest process very professionally and skillfully, Alex's flying machine slowly descended and hovered more than ten meters behind Lebo, and two figures slid down the cable.

"Captain Rogers, you're here too... It's not so serious, it's just a tube of serum, what if it can save a dying old man? ”

The King of Cards laughed and stalled with Steve, and each hand dropped a stack of cards from his cuffs.

Turning around, he looked at the specially made battle uniform in front of the chest of "Shockwave", which was lit up with red lines, and a bald young man with a face that seemed to be painted with blue-black oil paint slowly approached him.

"Mr. Lebbo, you should know what it is, 'Super Soldier Serum, a transcendent item classified as a first-class control by the Whip of Order, will cause unimaginable harmful consequences if it falls into society, you ———"

Whoosh...

The Pai Huang threw out seven or eight cards wrapped in fuchsia energy, and then broke through to the right side and fled, Steve didn't take the shield, and with his fists and kicks alone, he hammered out three rays of light that shot at him.

Alex in the back even formed a pistol shape with his index finger and middle finger in both hands, shooting out several slender red energy beams, shattering the four cards that shot at him and the team members around him.

Now he has mastered the shockwave power very well.

The thin young man with a face crawling with lines like demonic horns with five fingers in the shape of claws, looked coldly at the direction of Pai Huang's escape, as if he was pinching something, and slowly twisted his wrist.

"Gross! Vomit..."

Lebo fell to the ground, and couldn't help but vomit a few mouthfuls of sour water, his stomach twitched uncontrollably, and his body began to chill, dizzy, as if he had a fever.

"Damn... What is this broken, vomit! ”

While scolding, he encouraged the energy in his body, and the purple-red light in his eyes was even better, and he quickly isolated the influence of some strange force on himself.

Pai Huang only had natural agility when he was a teenager, and he was unusually strong and fast, and he was able to easily learn and master various fighting techniques and weapons.

As he grew older, more and more of Remy Lebbo's mutant abilities were discovered.

His core power is to inject energy into the objects from himself by touching them, making them powerful explosive weapons, the larger the contact object, the longer the energy conversion time required, and the stronger the relative explosiveness.

That's why King of Cards likes to use small, charged individuals, such as playing cards with little to no charge delay. Relying on this surging unknown energy, he can further increase his solid energy, stamina, dodge, and even allow him to create an isolation layer around himself, isolating the influence of spirit and many unknown forces.

Airplanes!

The Pai King slapped the ground and narrowly dodged the shield that Steve tossed.

Although most of the captured subjects have special abilities, their sheer physical qualities and combat skills cannot be compared to Steve Rogers, the captain of the Whip of Order.

Often before a face can be used for its own skills, it is smashed by a shield.

And the king of cards is one of the very few people who can fight Steve.

Bang bang...

The shield bounced back, and Steve took the shield and draped it up, and the card emperor fled, throwing a few energy-infused playing cards behind him from time to time, trying to delay the immobile shield warrior behind him.

"Hoo-hoo-hoo Captain Summers, my control is cut off, and Lebbo is running too far now_"

Alex and his teammates ran and chased with all their might, and their speed couldn't catch up with the two in front of them, and Lazaro, a mutant who was good at controlling flesh and disease in his team, had even more ordinary physical fitness.

"Mister Rogers is here, and the King of Cards can't run away this time."

Alex still likes the kind of goal that is thick and willing to carry it with himself, and he recruited Lázaro into his squad to increase control and make up for the shortcomings of his single means.

………

Two figures chased and ran between the rocks and the forest, and from time to time a large tree hugged by one person was hit by the energy card and made a deep gap.

Pai Huang felt that the man behind him seemed to be chasing faster and faster, and the special energy in his body was not endless, but Rogers' physical strength was not exhausted at all.

Phew!

Remy Lebbo pulled two short sticks from his back and joined them together, and with a flick of his wrist, he popped out and turned into a silver alloy stick that was slightly above his head.

"Hah!"

The Pai Huang shouted, and the strong purple light poured into the body of the stick, flashing with a dazzling light, it took him a lot of effort to create this stick, and it was not easy to find a material that could withstand his energy infusion for a long time.

"Captain Rogers, a shield has been invincible since World War II, and no one can break the whip of order for many years, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Steve watched Lebbo "slash his sword", shaking his blood on an empty wilderness waiting to be planned, and replied with a smile:

"Bet on what."

"I bet I can break through your defenses and hit your body!"

Pai Huang is full of provocation and disdain, which is a very beneficial gamble for himself, and he is used to using the same set of gambling tactics in battle.

"One step."

Steve took a heavy step forward, stomped out of a deep pit, and continued quietly, "I'll take a step back, and even if you win, the Whip of Order will let you go." ”

The Pai Huang didn't say anything more, and after a while, the purple and red light in his eyes erupted fiercely, like a great enemy.

When your opponent is betting more than you think, and you're sure he's not bluffing, it's best to fold the hand if there's no room to quit————

I can only fight stud!

Rumble!

Pai Huang jumped up and slashed down with a stick, this alloy stick that is continuously infused with its own energy can release a huge burst of energy while hitting any object, even a steel plate more than ten centimeters thick can burst it.

Steve slammed into the catch, swung his right fist over the top of his head with an Edelman alloy shield, and slashed back again.

Accustomed to being crumbling by the teacher from time to time, and Bucky's falling star punch now that he doesn't move or fight, Pai Huang's stick strike has no strength except for some energy effect bonuses.

Bang bang bang ...

LeBeau danced a piece of stick shadows, and hit Steve intensively and continuously, all of which were lightly swinged, but he was forced to retreat step by step, and even the pale red energy wrapped around the other party's body continued to send a strong oppressive force and pinprick pain to him.

"Is this Captain Rogers really just injected with serum and doesn't have the ability to be a mutant?"

Pai Huang gritted his teeth and the speed on the other side became faster and faster, the flickering shield shadows around him faintly condensed into one, and the tiger's mouths in Lebo's hands had cracked, and he gradually couldn't hold the stick.

Rumble!

Steve flew the card king with a backhand shield fan, followed closely behind, twisted his body and threw his shield, breaking the alloy stick in mid-air and smashing it into Lebeau's chest unabatedly.

"Poof..."

Remy Lebo fell heavily to the ground, vomiting blood intermittently, and with the sandwiches and bile he had eaten on the train before, he vomited everything he could in his stomach.

Stride over and say casually:

"It's rare to see an evolutionary as well-rounded as you, Mr. Lebeau, and your talent is pretty good."

A flying machine fell overhead, and Alex and the two had already given up chasing on foot, so he took out a disc-shaped vibranium lock and cuffed the wrist of the Emperor, and searched for two tubes of stolen serum from him.

"Lebeau, I accepted my teacher's invitation a few years ago, and today it may be you who handcuffed someone else's hands, I hope you have a good time with Mr. Barnes in the 'Wolf Tower, I believe you will like that man's fist."

Pai Huang let the two of them hold himself up, he looked at the "acquaintance" in front of him, and couldn't help asking:

"You guys, who is the strongest, 'Magneto, Lanchel?'

Remy LeBeau is still haunted by the man who restrained him with a wave of his hand, and today he has seen the combat effectiveness of Captain Rogers, and he can't figure out what the origin of these strong people who are faintly surrounding the Howlett group.

Alex was quite interested in talking to him more, and said with a smile:

"Don't always think that you are good at it, you can be at ease as a lone ranger... We actually want to know the strongest person too... Where is the limit..."

………

The sonic vehicle fired into the distance, and on another continent, in the Himalayas.

James and Gu Yi sat opposite each other, the Supreme Mage raised his eyebrows coldly, and said with rare anger:

"What a joke! You even want to test your limits with the Lord of the Hell Dimension? Dare to let Mephisto in... You're there, Mr. Howlett! ”
