Night falls.

On the island of Manhattan, where skyscrapers are lit up with skyscrapers.

Outside of Manhattan, the Hudson River sometimes glows with a faint halo, and sometimes becomes pitch black.

A lone crow swept by, its figure blurred in the moonlight, its cold chirping echoing in the night sky.

Hank McCoy is driving his vehicle back to Xavier Academy.

"I wonder how Scott and Auroro are investigating?"

Hank McCoy muttered to himself.

This guy with unknown old age, blue hair, and a burly figure like a silverback gorilla, but he wears a pair of glasses, just like Tyson has to dress up as a pedant, there is a strange contrast cute.

In fact, Hank McCoy, a mutant nicknamed "The Beast", is one of the smartest people in the Marvel world, and he is the main controller of the X-Men's Blackbird fighter, brainwave enhancer, holographic simulation combat system and other equipment.

At the same time, he also served as the Director of the Division of Mutant Affairs, responsible for the communication between the mutants and the American government.

He was busy until midnight before he came out of the government department, also because of the recent disappearance of mutants in New York.

Hank strongly suspects that this matter was secretly done by forces within the government that have strong malice towards mutants, but he has no evidence for the time being......

"I always feel that it can't go on like this, the current situation of mutants is like boiling frogs in warm water, and if the status quo continues like this, the consequences will be worrying."

Hank sighed and said:

"Even if this incident is successfully resolved, as long as there is no radical social change, then the things against mutants will continue to happen until ...... Mutants are dead. ”

As the smartest mutant, Hank certainly sees clearly that mutants need to usher in a change, and there will be no chance if they don't change.

It's just that he himself doesn't have the power to drive social change, and the people who have the best chance of becoming such a person, Professor X and Magneto, choose to maintain the status quo for various reasons.

Maintaining the status quo is not the worst option, but it is definitely not the best option.

"Where is the future of mutants?"

Hank was thinking.

Suddenly.

An RPG with a long flame tail slammed into Hank's car, and he was still thinking, he lost his mind for a while, and he didn't react at all, the car was blown up, and Hank, who was in the driver's seat, also let out a scream, and fell out of the vehicle and fell to the side.

And the car, which originally belonged to him, turned into a ball of fire.

A man in a suit and sunglasses threw the RPG launcher to the little brother next to him, and said with a low smile:

"Didn't you say that Hank the Beast was the smartest person in Xavier Academy? It doesn't look that smart, but it's so easy to solve, I thought it would take a lot of work! ”

It was none other than Kim and his number one fierce general, the Daredevil Slayer, Matt Murdoch.

Hank's beast rolled on the ground a few times, covered in blood, but because of his strong physique, he had not fainted, one of his eyes was blurred by blood, and he barely struggled to raise his head to look at Matt Murdoch who was walking with frivolous steps:

"Daredevil Slayer Mordorke? It turns out that the person who has been hunting mutants everywhere during this time is Jin And? ”

"You guessed right, but alas, you didn't get a chance to tell the other mutants." Matt Murdoch sneered: "But you don't need to worry, your colleagues in Xavier Academy will soon go to hell to accompany you." ”

"What the hell does Kim want to do?" Hank calmly wanted to get useful information: "Killing us won't do Kim any good." As far as I know, Kim is not a profitable guy, he can't just run over and target mutants because of some bullshit racism, right? ”

Matt Murdoch smiled: "It's only to blame you Xavier Academy for doing things too badly, you have to take all the mutants into your own hands, and don't allow others to form an army of mutants, what a foul practice?" Xavier Academy and the Mutant Brotherhood only allow themselves to use the power of mutants and eat alone, so naturally they must be prepared to be attacked by a group! ”

"......" Hank has nothing to say, but he didn't expect that their behavior of protecting mutants can be interpreted as captivating mutants for their own use, maybe this is the result of Jin Ji and other careerists treating people for their own purposes: "No matter what Jin Ji wants to do, the X-Men will definitely stop him, you underestimate the power of Xavier Academy!" ”

"You don't have to worry about it."

Matt Murdoch waved his hand, and immediately behind him, a little brother walked towards Hank with a loaded gun, trying to arrest Hank.

But he didn't think that Hank hadn't lost his combat effectiveness, and suddenly pounced on Matt Murdoch, and roared angrily:

"Damn Kim!"

Hank was huge, three the size of Matt Murdoch, and when he flew up, he looked as if he had the power of Tarzan.

The alienation of his physique makes Hank also very powerful, he can lift a ton of objects in battle, and has unimaginable speed and agility, and can perform difficult maneuvers that will amaze acrobats, such as climbing on flying missiles, walking on almost vertical walls, fighting on tightropes, etc.

Matt Murdoch was not afraid at all, he pushed his sunglasses:

"It's kind of interesting, I'll play with you."

As Hank approached, Matt Murdoch moved slightly, easily dodging Hank's pounce; Before Hank could land, Matt Murdoch burst out at an astonishing speed and attacked towards the major points on Hank's body.

The Daredevil Killer is the number one fierce general of Jinhe, and his combat power is naturally not ordinary, even if he is not attacked before Hank, and Matt Murdoch solo, he may not be Matt Murdoch's opponent, not to mention that Hank has just been hit by an RPG and was seriously injured, how can he be Matt Murdoch's opponent?

Really.

Hank made three moves, and he pulled the injury, revealing a flaw, and was hit by Matt Murdoch more than ten times in an instant, fell heavily to the ground, and couldn't get up again.

"It's boring." Matt Murdoch was impressed and said, "If it weren't for the mission, maybe I would have been able to have a good fight with you." ”

Next, Matt Murdoch brought people to launch a trap net at Hank, and after making sure that Hank was incapable of resisting, he injected Hank with anesthetics, and watched Hank pass out, so he loaded Hank into the cargo car and took him away.

“boss。” Matt Murdoch gave Kim a phone call: "Hank McCoy captured. ”

"Got it, then send it to Herbert Langdon." "Also, remind Langdon that if we don't hand over what we want within the stipulated time, then he will face the wrath of Jinji," Kim said. ”

"Understood."

Matt Murdoch hung up.

……

Following.

Auroro was awakened from her sleep by the ringing of the phone, and at the same time, she felt an unusually full feeling.

"White Night!"

Auroro slapped the man who likes to support her behind her back, Bai Ye, and said angrily:

"Your phone is ringing!"

"Really?" Bai Ye yawned a lot, and took his mobile phone from Auroro's hand: "Hey, what's the matter?" ”

Gao Jin said respectfully: "Young Master, the things you confessed have already been discovered. ”

"Oh?" Bai Ye turned on the hands-free and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Gao Jin said: "The recent bounty on mutants in the New York underworld is the brand group, CEO Herbert Langdon, who is an authority on genetic biology......"

White Night reached out and pressed it on Auroro's head and asked, "Have you found out why Herbert Langdon captured mutants?" ”

Auroro glanced at Bai Ye angrily, but she really wanted to find out the ins and outs of the matter, but she didn't expect that she could only bury her head in the quilt according to Bai Ye's meaning.

"Not yet." Gao Jin replied: "However, we found out that it seems that the New York underworld emperor Jin Ji has colluded with Herbert Langdon, and the two are cooperating. ”

"Kim?"

Bai Ye's eyes narrowed.

After having the power of Black Superman, Jin and in the eyes of Bai Ye, that is, a little Karami, the reason why Bai Ye has not touched Jin Ji is because Jin He's execution is very strong, at its peak, it was almost the source of 40% of American criminal activities, and he should be able to make a lot of big events and earn a lot of points for himself, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

The original vulture was the vulture armor developed in cooperation with Jinhe, as well as Felicia's black cat potion, and now it's on the mutants?

Hehe, Kim is really a good point maker.

Gao Jin continued: "During this period of time, because of Spider-Woman and Lizard Man, Jin Ji's criminal career has been severely hit, so he has been making frequent changes recently, and it seems that he is ready to find various means to deal with the superheroes that have emerged in New York recently, and protect his criminal empire. ”

Auroro's head was buried in the quilt, but it didn't stop her from pricking up her ears to listen.

Bai Ye exhaled a turbid breath and said, "Kim is just a gangster, there is no need to be afraid at all, there is no need to care too much about him, go and investigate the Brand Group for me to find out what Herbert Langdon wants to do." ”

As for the lizard man in Gao Jin's mouth...... White Night thought about it and knew that it was Parker, it seems that he didn't become Spider-Man, and Parker still embarked on a path that belonged to a hero, crawling out of the sewers of New York City in the middle of the night to fight crime, but ...... The appearance of the lizard is too ugly, Parker, are you sure that those who are rescued by you will not be scared to death?

After Spider Woman put on the white ghost spider suit, she was sassy, and her convex and backward figure was drooling when a man saw it, and she was completely a superhero with good looks, but what about Parker?

"Yes!"

Gao Jin took the order.

"Brand Group? Is everything the work of this Brand Group? ”

Auroro couldn't help but look up.

"There shouldn't be anything wrong with that." Bai Ye pressed Auroro's head down again and said, "I have a hunch that the Brand Group must be doing something terrible, such as depriving mutants of their genes and transferring them to ordinary people. ”

In Bai Ye's mobile phone, there was another detailed information sent by Gao Jin and the Brand Group.

Brand Group, a biomedical company with a market capitalization of $30 billion, has a major shareholder ...... Roxon Group? ”

Bai Ye's eyes widened:

"Sure enough, it's the naturally evil Uchiha...... Ahem, Roxon, who is evil by nature! Always have to go against me! I haven't gone to Roxon's trouble yet, and now Roxon has actually found me in trouble again, so what else is there to say? him! ”

It just so happened that Bai Ye was preparing to further expand the creatures of Saturn, originally he planned to acquire a few more small biological companies, but now that he has the brand group, a small biomedical giant, wouldn't it be good for the white night to swallow the brand group directly?

Don't look at Osborne and Stark at every turn for hundreds of billions of dollars, in fact, where is the money so easy to make, the Brand Group, with a market value of 30 billion US dollars, is also a small giant in the capital market, with branches in major countries around the world, and after Saturn Bio annexed the Brand Group, it can also immediately become an international company.

Bai Ye's eyes flickered: "It's just right, the Brand Group is doing something this time, taking mutants and slicing them in the laboratory for research, this kind of thing, everyone is doing it in private, but once it breaks out, it will be a big scandal, and after this incident is made big, the market value of the Brand Group of 30 billion US dollars is estimated to be at least halved, right?" I can't afford to spend more than $10 billion to get this small biomedical giant. ”

In the toilet bombing case in Japan, Galaxy Capital only made $26 billion, and took out the money to buy Brand Group, so easy!

After making up his mind, Bai Ye flipped through Roxon's information again to see if Roxen still had a subsidiary suitable for his Galaxy Group to acquire.

"Cybertech Systems? This is good, it can be acquired by the Martian military industry. ”

This is Roxon's cybernetic research arm that serves as its prosthetic and robotics facility. It was later enhanced to reverse-engineer cyborg Necronomic Locks.

"Metrobank? A medium-sized bank with a market capitalization of more than $10 billion can be acquired by Sun Bank......"

Suddenly.

Auroro's phone rang too, and she had to spit out the popsicle in her mouth, take the phone, and pick it up.

“what？”

Auroro exclaimed in an instant:

"Hank is missing? What happened...... Oh yes, I see, I'll be right over. ”

At this moment, Auroro was about to get dressed and run.

Bai Ye stopped her: "What's the matter, you're in such a hurry?" ”

"Hank is missing." Auroro said: "Due to the special nature of Hank's work, he gets off work from time to time, but he didn't go back to Xavier College last night, and when Scott and Jean called Hank in the morning, they kept turning off their phones, and Jean knew that something must be wrong, otherwise, Hank's mobile phone would not be easily turned off." ”

"Jean and the others looked over and found that Hank was attacked with a PRG on the way back to Xavier Academy, the car exploded and fell on the side of the road, and there was a lot of blood belonging to Hank at the scene, he must have been captured."

"Auroro, don't be in a hurry when you encounter something, because it's useless for you to be in a hurry." "The most important thing in solving things is to keep a clear head. Hank the Beast has been captured, and you run to the place where he was captured to check the situation, is there any practical use? ”

"This ......"

Auroro calmed down and realized that Hakuya was right.

Thanks to the help of White Night, they have locked down the real culprit behind the recent capture of mutants in New York, which is the Brand Group and its CEO Herbert Langdon, so what she has to do now is not to follow Jean and them to carefully investigate the ins and outs of Hank's disappearance, but to go to the Brand Group, find Herbert Langdon to settle accounts, and let that damn guy hand over Hank and the rest of the kidnapped mutants!

"Calm down, huh?" Bai Ye smiled: "I'll take you to the Brand Group, I think Herbert Langdon caught the mutants in order to study the mutants' genes, not to kill the mutants, so the beast Hank should not be in danger of life for the time being, we just need to find the location of the Brand Group's laboratory before he goes completely crazy and rescue the kidnapped mutants." ”

"White Night, you're right!"

Auroro took a deep breath and immediately went to make a phone call with Jean.

So, after a brief internal discussion, they decided to go their separate ways, Qin and the others looked for clues according to the traces left by the beast Hank at the scene, and Auroro followed Bai Ye to the headquarters of the Brand Group to see the opportunity.

……

Bai Ye drove the car and came to the headquarters of the Brand Group.

The Brand Group is conducting a scientific and technological seminar, and many expert journalists are flocking to it.

Because of his relationship as the eldest young master of the Osborne family, Bai Ye brushed his face and took Auroro in.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Brand Group's Science and Technology Symposium, and I would like to invite Mr. Herbert Langdon, CEO of the Brand Group and an authority on genetic science, to give a speech."

Amid applause, Herbert Langdon came to the stage:

"Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, that I am standing here today to announce to you the dawn of a new era, a new era in which we can recognize the factors of genetic variation!"

"Most of us know that DNA, the chemical makeup shared by human and animal and plant cells, contains the characteristic code for all the functions of our life."

"But at some point, these gene strands can also undergo unique changes, which we call mutations."

"And because of the complexity of the gene chain and its tiny size, the scientific community is still unable to control or even interfere with this mutation in DNA."

"Even our knowledge of them is only scratching the surface. We don't know why they mutate, how they mutate, what causes them and how much energy they need. ”

"However, we at Brand Group have collected some of the data on the mutant gene, which we call the X gene, and conducted research, and through the current new generation of supercomputers to summarize, organize and deduce this data, we at Brand Group are confident that we will soon be able to complete this greatest scientific discovery in genetics!"

"Yes, we are conducting more in-depth research on the X gene, and we are about to usher in a new era, replacing those naturally occurring mutations with scientifically controllable artificial genes!"

When Auroro heard Herbert Langdon's words, he almost exploded: "This bastard, what he says now, is on the cards, he is studying the X gene of mutants!" How could there be such a study without catching a large number of mutants and obtaining genetic data? Bai Ye, you found out that you are not wrong, everything is this guy doing nonsense! Hank must have been caught by him! ”

"Of course there can't be a mistake, he's making too much noise."

"I'm going to beat him up!"

Auroro clenched his fists, and looked at Herbert Langdon on the stage with eyes that almost erupted into flames.

Bai Ye said helplessly: "Auroro, calm down, calm down!" There are so many people on the scene, there are many powerful people, and a large number of reporters, if you go up to make trouble at this time, you will push the mutants into the abyss, you have to exercise restraint! ”

Auroro is not a reckless man like Wolverine, of course he understands it, stared at Herbert Langdon, snorted coldly, and sat down again.

The two continued to listen to Herbert Langdon's speech.

But listening to science lectures is too boring, Bai Ye took out his mobile phone to play, and unexpectedly found that Johnny seemed to have sent him a video, and Bai Ye was curious to click on it and take a look......

"it!"

Bai Ye exclaimed, he didn't expect that Johnny was playing really, even if Bai Ye and Tony were not involved, he still had a four-person party, and the heroine was Kim Kardashian......
