Chapter 375: Struggle Doesn't Have to Succeed
Edward stood on the hillside, the wind blowing through the cornfields, setting off golden waves.
"How?"
"I found a clue, the scarab beetle was tracking something to the Marvis star, and it was lost near the Mavis star, so I found the nearest biological source, and obtained the information of the earth from the memory of the hive.
The figure he tracked was blurry, but the general similarity was 98%, and it should be him. ”
An image was sent to Edward by the evacuee, who glanced at it, put his hand on his forehead, and laughed involuntarily.
It's him again.
Martian, Malafark.
Edward's laughter stopped abruptly, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, the soil on the ground where the hive had been sitting was surging like a stream of water, arching a lonely grave.
The beetle flew back from the bottom of the mountain, and Edward placed the nine plump golden grains of corn it had taken, along with a bottle of burning knives, in front of the grave.
When he was done, Edward left the jungle without looking back.
As soon as Edward stepped out, the jungle landscape behind him changed, and the previous hillsides and cultivated fields were gone, replaced by a dense ruins of buildings crawling with vines and plants.
Edward came to a river, looked at the clear water, and surrounded by insects and beasts, whether poisonous or vicious or not, were very close to Edward, as if they had known each other for a long time.
"Evasion."
"Yes, sir."
"Blue Shore, enter a state of war."
While I'm grateful to the Hive for resisting and buying time for Earth, there are times when fate plays some very bad jokes.
Edward leaned forward with his arms outstretched.
According to the cracking results of Blue Bank, the signal of the Ruiqi Zerg had been successfully sent unconsciously as early as the moment he got the information from the hive's mind.
The hive's resistance was useless.
Struggle does not necessarily succeed, and effort does not necessarily lead to reporting.
The water splashed, and Edward fell into the water and quietly disappeared.
"Fate."
——
Frost Manor.
Inside Winston's study.
The vicissitudes of life in Frost Manor are difficult to see clearly if you don't witness the whole process of onlookers.
After Edward and Ilyana entered the border of Hell, Caesar healed Colossus, Qingjian and the others, and picked up the ring that had broken into two from the ground and was inscribed with "Thomas Wayne", and immediately realized something.
So in the mirror world, the evasion personally led the team to the Winston Manor to search, and finally found a suicide note, a suicide note written decades ago.
"I don't know who you are, but by the time you got this letter, I guess I was dead.
So if you're a good person, respect the last wish of the deceased and give this thing to the last person at the address.
If you don't want to give, read on.
I'm not sure who will get this letter, but in order to keep them from getting it, I spent a lot of effort leaving a layer of injunction, and the rest of the thing is unwatchable to ordinary people.
If you do not see the words below, which proves that you are not eligible to contact the letter, please send the letter to the following address.
……”
The address Edward was unfamiliar, but it was delivered to a unit, and he was familiar with it.
Xavier School for the Gifted.
Recipient, Charles Francis Xavier.
The letter below is blank, all the handwriting is sealed by magic, very special magic, and it is very old, at least more than ten years old.
However, since the magic used was dark magic, Edward easily cracked it.
The original handwriting slowly emerged.
"Whoever you are, if you have the ability to break the seal, then you have the right to touch this matter.
But I give you one last chance, leave now, you will still live in a world of peace, and once you come into contact with the following things, you and everything you come into contact with will have life worries! ”
Below was another line of seals, but faint, almost none, apparently a reminder rather than a forced test.
"Whoever you are, when you read this letter from this moment on, be careful, everything around you can be spied on, eavesdropped, your closest people, your best friend, your favorite wife can become your enemy.
It's not a game, and I don't know when it's going to end, so please be careful in the future, or you may end up like me.
I'm going to tell you my story and ask you to take it as a warning.
I'm Winston Frost, the founder of Frost Electronic Technology.
The Frost family is not a famous family, my father was strictly poor, and so was I, and my fate changed during a trip where I met my best friends and closest companions in life, Thomas Wayne, and Howard Stark.
My first dozen years were boring, but after meeting them, my life became colorful.
We traveled together and became partners, and when the trip was over we became friends, I was not as smart as them, nor as talented as them, but fortunately they were not stingy with me, and this is the origin of Frost Electronic Technology.
In the third year of our acquaintance, after a party together, I was taken by them to an absolutely secret bomb shelter, and I was frightened, I had never seen their expressions so serious.
At that meeting, they told me, 'There's more to the world than it seems!' A lot of business practices that seem to be wonderful, if you look closely, you will find that this is a sign from more than ten years ago or even ten years ago! ’
I said, 'Maybe it's just a coincidence?' Will you be too suspicious, but the result is the cause. ’
They looked at me, listed the clues they had gathered, analyzed them one by one, told me and organized their own thoughts.
We talked for a long time, and finally settled on a mysterious organization behind the world, which we called 'Men in Black'
From that day on, Howard and Thomas began to secretly prepare against them, and I was in charge of the rear.
As with any previous collaboration, we are excited to start the operation, and we are confident that this operation will be as successful as any previous one.
In the fourth year, we met again, and Howard and Thomas's expressions became more and more serious, they hadn't laughed in a long time, and the more they investigated, the more they realized their powerlessness, and they found that this net was thick and thin all over the planet.
Howard is involved in an official mystery plan to combat this existence with official power.
Thomas's mental state is obviously in trouble, and he discovers that there is another power hidden in Gotham! An existence different from the 'Men in Black'! He named it 'The Phantom of Gotham.' ’
He found out that his Wayne Enterprise could be infiltrated!
He found that the history of Wayne Enterprises was full of suspicions!
He discovers that his father's death is in doubt!
He found out that Wayne Manor had no credible person around him!
That oppressive feeling, as if the whole city was against him!
