Chapter 40: New Teammates

Tokyo, 7th floor, Shibuya 109 Building.

Laura sat in the window seat in the café and looked at the famous intersection not far downstairs that had appeared in many film and television works.

Looking at the people and cars coming and going, she had a little headache, because she really didn't expect that the Tokyo base of the Hand Club was actually directly below here.

"These guys in the Hand Association are not afraid of an earthquake that will be buried directly inside."

Stirring the coffee in front of her irritably, she was really a little numb.

"Unknown brainwave frequency band detected and has been blocked by default."

The female voice of the system that suddenly came to mind made Laura tense up instantly, and she thought it was Ophelia's little trick again, and she immediately asked Rachel to start searching the surroundings.

Half a minute later, Rachel didn't find any suspicious characters, and Laura just got up and was about to leave.

"Jingle Bell"

She just stood up and looked at the 'unknown number' flashing on the phone screen on the table, thought for a few seconds, turned on the reverse trace, and picked it up.

"Hey, who's coming?"

"Hello, Miss Laura Crawfit. I'm Professor Charles Xavier. ”

Laura frowned, isn't this Professor X's name? After thinking about it again, he seemed to understand something, and his tone became unfriendly:

"I know you, a powerful psychic mutant. You were just trying to connect my brainwaves, right? ”

The old man's voice was still so easygoing:

"I'm sorry, but I was trying to confirm some things... I'm a little anxious, I won't try again, and I apologize to you. ”

Laura's face softened when she heard this, and the system did not have any relevant prompts, so she replied:

"Okay, I accept it, what's so urgent about you?"

The other end of the line seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and began to indicate the intent of the call.

As Laura thought, Professor X has always left a trace of spiritual power on Logan's body, and through Uncle Wolf's side, he also found a mutant Xue Xu, who is not weak.

After communicating with the two of them, the happy Charles has invited the two to go to X Academy after the trip.

As a result, the mental characteristics of the two suddenly disappeared one after another, so that he was anxious and had to find Laura, who had appeared beside them before.

Laura, who had learned a little bit about it, also shared the information she had found with Professor X.

"Hydra? Hand club? We have collected information on these two forces before. ”

Laura's heart: Is it true that all agencies in the world except S.H.I.E.L.D. know about the existence of Hydra?

"Laura, thank you for the information, I have sent a team of X-Men to rescue Logan and them, and they are expected to arrive in an hour, can you please help them?"

Hearing this time, she sighed at the black technology of these mutants, and then replied:

"No problem, my primary goal is to rescue Mariko Shishida and investigate the 'Silver Samurai', which does not conflict with your goals."

Laura wished she had more people to help, after all, the Hand Clan's base in the downtown area made her very big, and the viper had no news at all.

An hour later, she was in a nearby valley.

The flowers and trees in front of him were blown by the air current, and a black fighter plane appeared in front of Laura.

"Rachel, can you analyze this optical camouflage, I think it can be used on the Best armor."

Best's helmet flashed twice, and Rachel seemed to finish scanning:

"Yes, but it needs to be used with special materials on the outside of the fighter."

At this time, the rear door of the plane was also fully opened, and two men and two women wearing X-Men uniforms walked out one after another.

Dressed in blue, Hank the 'Beast', was born with all the senses and strong physique of a beast, and is one of the smartest people on the planet, especially when it comes to mechanical engineering.

The silver-haired black girl codenamed 'Storm Girl', her real name is Oloro, and her ability is to manipulate the weather, such as creating lightning, tornadoes, and torrential rains, and is a typical mage like the fake Himiko who was killed by Laura before.

Wearing a pair of red quartz glasses is also easy to recognize, 'Laser Eyes' Scott, this guy's eyes are connected to a different dimension, and he can shoot a powerful red impact beam.

The last with red hair in a shawl made Laura's eyes jump.

This woman is the famous 'Phoenix Girl' Jean Gray, the current phoenix host, and her abilities are outrageous. Under normal conditions, it will have skills such as telekinesis control, mind reading, energy impact, and flight. When the spiritual power fully awakens into a phoenix descending like a god, its power is almost unlimited, and it is able to manipulate the molecular structure of matter and energy, causing it to change its structure.

Qin looked at the woman in black armor in front of her, smiled and said:

"Hello, Miss Crawford, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

"Call me Laura, did Professor Charles send you the information?"

Cyclops nodded and spoke:

"There's already a preliminary plan for infiltrating the Hand base, but we don't have a clue what Hydra says."

After discussing this for a while, they decided to deal with the Hand first, and the professors who stayed in X Academy would use the brainwave amplifier to find Logan and Hydra.

Several of them were action-oriented, and soon came to a hidden entrance that Laura had discovered earlier.

Under the slightly surprised eyes of the X-Men, her hand armor extended a port and inserted it into the small hole under the access control.

A minute later, Laura's voice reached their communicator:

"Okay, I've completely taken over the security and surveillance system here, and now there are two guards behind the door, what can you do?"

Jean nodded at her, then closed her eyes.

In the surveillance footage that Laura saw, the two guards standing guard shook and walked together to a storage room not far away, closed the door and fainted to the ground.

She gave Jean a thumbs up, then manipulated the program to open the door, and several mermaids entered.

Along the way, Laura was in charge of opening the perspective, and Jean was mind-controlling those who couldn't get around, so she walked smoothly to the bottom of the base where Mariko and her were imprisoned.

Stopping at the door of the laboratory on the ground floor, Laura operated and projected the real-time monitoring footage inside in front of several people.

There were only five people in the huge laboratory, Yukio, Mariko, Shishida Shingen, Mrs. Gao, and an old Japanese man on crutches.

Mariko was in a coma on one side, and Xue Xu was lying on the operating table with several needles inserted into her body, and Shin Xuan and the others watched with interest from the side.

Seeing this scene, Laser Eye, whose temperament had not stabilized at this time, directly reached out and twisted the switch of the goggles.

"Boom"

The door to the lab collapsed after being pierced, sending up a cloud of dust, and Cyclops rushed in stunned, a little worried that her boyfriend's piano would soon follow.

Laura shook her head and exchanged glances with the remaining two, both realizing the helplessness in each other's eyes.
