"And have you read my thoughts?"

"Well, there have been a few times."

"It turns out that you understand, so why do you still pretend not to understand!"

"John and Marcus, go and call someone, why haven't you come back for so long?"

Rojo coughed lightly, intending to distract himself.

Lorna saw his thoughts, remembering that her thoughts had already been seen through, she was angry and ashamed, and said, "Don't try to change the topic until I'm angry!" ”

"I've only used it once or twice with you."

Rojo gestured two numbers with his hand, and saw Lorna striding towards him, and he quickly walked around to the back of the professor's bed, "Don't be angry, it's just once or twice, I don't have the fetish that I did when I was young." ”

"Ahem, Rojo, I was a gentleman when I was young, and you should learn from me."

"Professor, can you help me see what he's thinking, once or twice? How many times exactly? ”

"Probably two hands in the number? I really don't remember, but sometimes, it's subconscious reading. ”

"You're a voyeur!"

Just as Rojo and Lorna circled each other in their tents.

Suddenly, at this time, there was a quarrel outside, followed by a piercing explosion, as if someone had lit a grenade, which was somewhat deafening in the narrow underground base.

Bang!

"Wait, there's something going on outside!"

Rojo put one hand around Lorna, motioning for her to stay out of the way, and lifted the curtain to look out.

"It seems to be a movement from the door."

Logan. Howlett noticed at a glance that there was a noisy crowd gathering in the direction of the gate, and he could smell the smell of blood wafting through the air.

"Go and see, Sonia lives over there."

Lorna was anxious for her friend, so she didn't bother with Rojo's telepathy anymore and strode to the door.

Rojo and the others followed, and soon collided with John head-on.

John said nervously: "It's messy, it's completely messy, now some people want to flee here, some people want to stay, don't get into trouble, they are fighting, and Marcos is dissuading." ”

"Damn, it's been like this, they're still fighting in the nest, what a bunch of stupid guys!"

Logan gritted his teeth, and the green veins on his forehead bulged.

Charles sighed: "It's not their fault, when faith and conviction collapse, everyone makes choices that are good for themselves. ”

Bang!!!

At this moment, in front of the entrance of the underground base, more than a dozen people were shaking each other with their fists, rolling on the ground, and the surrounding crowd was trying to stop it but was accidentally injured and knocked over.

In the midst of a chaotic fight, someone unleashes a mutant ability and blows off one person's arm.

Marcos was in the middle of the two waves, trying to separate them with a panicked face, "Give me calm!" Stop it! ”

In exchange, there was still a muffled sound of fists falling.

"That's it!"

"Stop!"

Finally, someone shouted from the periphery of the crowd, and the originally extremely angry crowd was instantly shocked and quieted by the shout, but the smell of blood in the air had not yet dissipated, but it made them more sober, and some of them looked helplessly at the ground, stunned companions.

The crowd retreated, and Rojo pushed the professor and Logan to the front of the crowd.

"What are you guys doing, killing each other for a traitor!"

Rojo's words echoed through the underground base, the dim light shining through the orange shades, casting a faint glow on the ground, illuminating the dilapidated walls and rusted metal structures.

On the walls are faded slogans and graffiti, revealing a long period of loneliness and abandonment. There was a faint musty smell in the humid air, and water droplets from the walls were dripping to the floor.

At this time, the mood of the quiet crowd, each of them, like the environment around them, wrote the gloomy emotions on their faces.

Including those who were beating each other, their tense emotions, after seeing Rojo and the others, were like a straight thread, suddenly cracked, and they sat down on the ground.

"We're angry Eugene, him."

"Everything is a lie, a lie! Eugene. Phil lied to us, he said he would make everyone lie under the blue sky and sleep on the soft grass, but he lied to us! He just wants to imprison us here! ”

Someone sat on the ground, looking at the dark and cold ceiling, touching the damp floor tiles.

He looked at Charles and said, "Professor, no one really wants to live here, we are people, not animals!" ”

These words are like opening the valve of the floodgates, and in an instant, the emotions of others can no longer be suppressed.

"Eugene's words may not really come true, but I always felt that there was a hope there, a lamp, a light to light the way, to let us know where to go, but now that the light is out it doesn't even exist, and we don't know what to do next."

"Eugene said he would take us away soon after, now. Nothing is going to happen, it's like going back a year ago, and we're going to continue to live in the sewers. ”

"Let's get out of here, we won't be able to stay any longer anyway! Eugene is dead, this underground is finished! ”

"Yes, if we stay here now, at most we will become a tool of S.H.I.E.L.D., so we might as well leave early!"

Under the orange light, shining on the sad and hideous faces of everyone, they were brought in by Eugene in the first place, and left for the future in Eugene's mouth, but now everything is in vain.

Rojo could feel everyone's hearts, confused, tangled, and painful, and they might not really want to leave, but they needed someone to convince them to stay.

He telepathically said to Charl. Xavier said, "Professor, say something."

"Me?"

Charles was stunned, a little unnatural, and looked at Rojo, "I thought it was you who presided, I haven't done this kind of thing for a long time, I can't do it"

"Professor, you used to be the headmaster of Xavier's Academy for the Gifted, and they respect you and will be willing to listen to you."

Rojo has no reason to speak, he is not qualified enough, and Uncle Wolf obviously does not have the eloquence of an orator, as for others, it is even more impossible, no one wants to listen to the juniors to teach you, this kind of thing, only a professor can do.

Now the members of the base need a reassurance.

"Hmm."

Charles received an affirmative answer, took a deep breath, and his old eyes, becoming firm and full of strength, raised his hand and said, "Everyone, please calm down first." ”

Under the oppression of telepathy and elders, everyone quieted down one after another, and all eyes focused on the old man in a wheelchair.

"I understand, and I know your feelings, Eugene. Phil betrayed each of us, I used to trust him so much, and he behaved so perfectly, so incredible. ”

Charles. Xavier said, looking at Rojo and then turning his gaze to the members around him, "If you put away these betrayals and hypocrisy, he is a qualified leader, and he can unite everyone in a year, it's an incredible thing, but! ”

"Obviously, we can't ignore the facts, yes Eugene deceived each of us, he colluded with Hydra, he kept saying that it was for the base, for the people, in fact, everything he did was for himself!" It's an undeniable fact, a fact that's really happening right in front of you, and you and I have seen the video and heard what Eugene said. ”

Charles. Seeing that everyone's mood had eased, Zessel also paused and relaxed, and continued: "But we can't give up our original intention and goal because of this, we chose to stay at the base for Eugene. Phil? Ask yourselves, yes? ”

The surrounding members began to get a little restless, and apparently it was these words that made them start to rethink some issues.

Charles didn't give them time to talk and think, and continued: "Obviously not, you are for this race and your own life, in order to make everything better, in fact, everything has nothing to do with Eugene, he is indeed the guide, brought you here, but he took the wrong path halfway, but we didn't, we are still fighting for the race, for the base, for the future." ”

The professor is really suitable to be a speaker, but it is almost meaningful, after all, in this case, everyone is depressed to the bottom, and they still need . Rojo sighed in his heart, his eyes noticed Clarice standing in the crowd, he had an idea, secretly rehashed Clarice with a look, and communicated telepathically.

The girl looked dazed, and soon suddenly, pursed her lips, plucked up her courage, raised her hand and shouted: "The professor is right, we are all fighting for the original goal and original intention, as long as we work hard, hope is always there, why care about Eugene, he. He's just a traitor! ”

"Yes, Eugene was not for us in the first place, but for himself, why should we be sad for a traitor and give up everything!"

"It's not like the Earth is not going to turn without Eugene, besides, we still have professors, and Rojo and they have also done so much for the base, if we just leave, what we have done will be lost."

Some people took the lead, and some members who had never dared to express their stance spoke one after another, people are social creatures, emotions can infect each other, and as long as someone looks in a good direction, then others will also look away.

Of course, not everyone will see it.

Someone soon questioned, "However, we are still under the supervision of S.H.I.E.L.D., and they haven't even arranged a new residence, and I'm fed up with this place." ”

"Don't worry, we're working on this."

Seeing this, Rojo hurriedly spoke, it seems that the problem that Steve has been having a headache has been solved, in fact, S.H.I.E.L.D. has planned to transfer people to a new residence for a long time, but there is no consensus within the base, perhaps Eugene is obstructing, and it has not been able to evacuate.

"The most important problem is S.H.I.E.L.D., they're not a good thing, Hydra collected their blood samples, S.H.I.E.L.D. will definitely do the same!"

"Listen to me first."

Rojo motioned for a few people to be quiet, and said that the professor would give him time to say a few words, "I understand your feelings, but one thing must be made clear, as long as we stay in this country, or even this planet, then it is inevitable that we will be followed by S.H.I.E.L.D., or other similar organizations." ”

Everyone fell into a brief silence, in fact, everyone knew that there was no absolute safety, and after so many years of being a mutant, everyone had long been aware of their situation.

Seeing this, Rojo continued: "However, please believe us, mutants will have a great future, God will not create us for no reason, in fact, mutants are the evolution of humanity, we are an integral part of this planet, this is a fact that cannot be changed"

"What if someone wants us to disappear?"

Someone asked.

"They won't do that, but if anyone thinks that way, then they're a flock of sheep that has angered the wolves."

Rojo's words made Charles next to him stunned, he looked up at the young man, when the young man said this, his face did not change at all, and he understated it, but he could feel the coldness revealed in the words.

If it was before, he would have thought that Rojo was talking big, but now it was different, he had just seen Rojo's mutant ability.

It was a power that could change the world, and it was also the omega-level mutant he was looking for, maybe the power that Rojo showed now was not enough to reach the level of omega-level, but his potential had already surpassed that of omega, and in the near future, what the boy said now would be realized

Charles was a little silent, not only in the rhetoric of the teenager, but also in the threat and danger to humanity in the teenager's words.

In the past, I should have spoken up to stop it.

But now, looking at the equally excited crowd around him, the professor didn't do that, but chose to acquiesce and nodded.

Perhaps it was the events of the years that had numbed him.

"Why should we believe what you say?"

Suddenly, at this time, someone questioned, which made Charles. Xavier frowned and looked at the member who had questioned.

"Why do you believe it?"

Charles. Xavier said, holding the wheelchair with both hands, gritting his teeth, his legs tense and exerting force, like a fallen boulder, rising again, standing up from the wheelchair, looking directly at him, and saying, "I think, you can try to believe." ”

[PS: To be honest, after Eugene's plot was written, I was really relieved, after all, there was a lot of controversy, and the subscription was like a roller coaster, going up and down, going down, going up again, going down again, going down again, and going back again. I originally planned to write a longer one, but the effect was not good, so I cut it, and I also thought about finishing this plot quickly, but if I forcibly cut Eugene, the plot connection is very inconsistent, so I insisted on writing it, and I had to reconsider the plot in the future, so as not to have a situation like Eugene's plot again. 】

[Finally, thank you for your support, you can accompany me through this plot, thank you very much, I will do my best to make the later plot exciting.] 】
