Body 17. Cut Hu

"Has Merlin's communication recovered?"

At the medical point nearly a kilometer away from a.i.m's bunker base, Elsa looked nervously at Beast Hank. This beastly mutant with a high IQ and fierce fighting was repeatedly adjusting the frequency of the communicator.

Just a few minutes ago, they completely lost communication with Merlin. Seeing that the time for the self-destruction of the base was getting closer and closer, but Merlin's sudden disappearance made this mutant rescue operation that seemed to have won a complete victory be defeated. It was covered with a layer of haze.

"There is no problem with the communicator, and the frequency is correct."

Hank, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, reassembled the disassembled communicator at a dizzying speed. The blue-haired monster in black said to Elsa:

"It's not a problem with the equipment, it should be that Merlin actively blocked the communication."

"Why would he do that?"

Elsa looked back at the distant base with some irritability, and she complained:

"He's always like this, doing whatever he wants and making us worry about him."

"Calm down."

Sitting next to Elsa, Spirit Butterfly wiping her samurai sword also looked at the base in the distance, but compared to Elsa, she was much calmer. She said:

"Ten years ago, that little man was not afraid of explosion damage. His ability made him almost invulnerable to pure gunpowder weapons. Now that guy is much stronger, and he will be fine."

She said with determination:

"Since he is sure to stay there, we should trust him. Perhaps, he is dealing with some things that are inconvenient for us to know."

Psylocke looked back at Hank, and she asked:

"Wolverine is there too, right?"

"should be."

Hank took off his glasses from the bridge of his nose and said:

"This kind of explosion can't hurt Logan, and now we have more troublesome things."

Hank glanced back at the mutants who were being treated urgently behind him, and he said with some concern:

"The White Queen and Domino left after the battle. Maybe they had a premonition. We have to leave here too. After all, this is Canada, the territory of the Mutant Brotherhood."

"A plane can't hold so many people."

Ororo, the storm girl who was manipulating the warm air and maintaining the temperature, said in a low voice:

"Many compatriots who were rescued were seriously injured, not to mention we still have so many prisoners."

The prisoners mentioned by Storm are the a.i.m researchers and some soldiers who later escaped from the base. They knew that the base was about to explode, so they rushed out without armor and armor, but were caught by s.d.o.l.d. agents.

Now those guys are just outside the healing point, guarded by Agent Jimmy and other agents.

"We've contacted headquarters."

Merlin was not there, and Elsa, as a shield consultant, took on the task of communicating with the X-Men. She said to Hank and Ororo:

"Soon there will be special staff to take over this matter. They are all involved in dangerous biological experiments, illegal detention and malicious injury. They will be put in prison and then tried by law."

"That's good news."

Hank nodded, he looked at Elsa:

"How long will it take for your people to come?"

"About two hours later."

Elsa looked at the time and said:

"This is an emergency, so it will take time."

"2 hours"

Hank shook his head:

"It's been too long. Although we imprisoned the spies of the Mutant Brotherhood in advance, the attack on the base cannot be concealed from Magneto. We must leave now."

"swish"

As soon as Hank finished speaking, Dobby the Leprechaun wearing a toad mirror appeared beside Elsa, and handed a simple key to Miss Bloodstone.

Others can't see magical creatures like Dobby, but Elsa has been tempered by some potions since she was a child, so that she has psychic perception before she completes the grass trial.

She was one of the few who could see and hear Dobby.

"Master Merlin asked Dobby to give this to Miss Bloodstone."

Dobby, in his shrill voice, said to Elsa:

"He said that this key can take you away quickly, provided that you find a door. The officer also said that he needs to deal with some important affairs, so Miss Bloodstone and Miss Lingdie don't worry about him, he will come back after the business is over , returned to New York on his own.”

"This key?"

Elsa took the key from Dobby, she glanced at it, and said with some doubts:

"I did see Merlin use it before."

"Yes, the officer said, he gave you the right to use the key, but only this time, when using the key, you must think about where it will land in advance, preferably in an absolutely safe place."

After speaking, Dobby disappeared in a flash.

Merlin gave it another mission, and it had to finish it before a.i.m's base exploded.

"We need a door, any door will do, as long as it has a lock!"

Elsa got the key without any hesitation. She has always trusted Merlin in business affairs.

Looking at the key in Elsa's hand, Lingdie curled her lips, and the beautiful mercenary said with some dissatisfaction:

"It seems that he still trusts you more, obviously I knew him first, what a heartless little man."

"snort."

Elsa said proudly:

"He and I are true friends and we've been through a lot together"

Lingdie gave Elsa a strange look, and she said:

"What's there to be proud of? I'm not trying to get jealous with you. That little man has a shadow of another woman in his heart. Before that shadow dissipates, you have no chance at all, poor Miss Bloodstone."

"Let's go, stop arguing."

Hank stopped the two women from arguing. He pointed to the black plane that was parked outside the canyon and belonged to the X-Men mission. He said:

"That's the closest door to here, although I don't know how you plan to take us away."

"It's very simple."

Elsa grabbed the key and rushed to the plane parked hundreds of meters away. She said:

"We just need to open the door."

Moments later, Elsa is standing on the X-Men's beautiful, futuristic plane, the gangway has been opened, and behind her, an agent waits with an a.i.m researcher in yellow The opening of the door.

"Send us back to basement 5 of s.d.o.l.d. base."

Elsa said something to the key in her hand, and then followed Merlin's example, inserting the key that did not match the lock into the plane's cabin door lock.

With the sound of the key twisting, Elsa pushed open the door. In front of her eyes, behind that door was the interior of the base that the agents were familiar with.

"You go back first."

Ms. SHIELD Advisor turned to Agent Jimmy and said:

"What Merlin means is to lock up these prisoners first, and the headquarters will send people to receive them soon."

"Um."

The agent wearing a combat helmet nodded, and he led the prisoner in yellow into the door in front of him.

It's an airplane door, so it's narrow and only one person can go through at a time.

Under the plane, Hank the Beast looked at the unscientific optional door and the rusty ordinary key. He rubbed his mane-covered face with some headaches, and looked at Oro next to him. Luo said:

"This is why I don't like magic and wizards. You are always using some completely unscientific things to destroy my seriousness in the world. But I still have no way to explain these phenomena with my knowledge."

"That's because you're too stubborn, Hank."

White Wizard Ororo shrugged, she said calmly:

"Magic and science are originally two systems. If you insist on using science to explain magic, you can only ask for trouble. And the magic wonder of the space attribute possessed by Merlin, even in the knowledge of wizards, belongs to That kind of extremely complex and high-end creation, even in my family's secret collection, is rarely such a high-level alchemy product, it must have been made by a certain master, and it is priceless."

"Magic, technology, it's just different ways of interpreting the world in my opinion."

Beast Hank said to his companions:

"And there is always only one truth in the world, so magic and technology will eventually lead to each other. They will merge together, and at some point in the future, they will reveal the truth of the world for us."

"I don't care much about that."

Ororo glanced at the mutant who was being supported by the agents, waiting to leave the snowy mountain valley, she said:

"It seems that we will be able to leave here in ten minutes. Hank, you, Warren, and Summers will bring the compatriots back to the academy. I will stay here to confirm that Mr. Merlin is safe and sound in the end. He helped us a lot this time around."

"Um."

Hank didn't object.

A few minutes later, a mutant who seemed to have injured his leg walked up the gangway with the help of Cyclops Summers. Those mutants who had been imprisoned for months or even years looked at the door in front of them. Most of them In the eyes of everyone, there is a desire for freedom and the fear of past disasters.

Mutants, this race, are really troubled by disasters.

"Thank you, kind lady."

The mutant old lady supported by Cyclops thanked Elsa weakly at the door:

"Your God will surely bless you."

"nothing."

Elsa said sullenly:

"It's our job to get in here, get out of here and start a new life."

"Um."

The frail old lady nodded, and said:

"But it's not a home opposite the door, and I suddenly don't want to leave."

"Um?"

The moment Elsa heard these words, a sense of danger sprang up in her mind, and she suddenly fell backwards, leaning back with a standard tactic, narrowly dodging the old lady's sudden raised fist.

Cyclops, who was supporting her, was not so lucky.

The young mutant was pushed into the cabin door in front of him by the suddenly violent old lady. Unprepared, this powerful mutant fell into the door. When he got up, he pressed the tactical eyepiece and watched the dangerous The laser light was about to shoot out, but the door was closed by the agile old lady.

She pulled the key of the mystery house out of the hatch, turned it up and down in her hand, and put it in her pocket.

She looked back at Ororo, the storm girl who was driving the wind towards her under the chaos. The old lady's face and body changed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, she changed into another expression. ordinary man.

'He' smiled at Ororo with a strange expression, and then, like a nimble monkey, he jumped off the gangway of the plane and blended into the chaotic crowd, just like ink melted into a pool.

"It's Ruiwen!"

Ororo in the air shouted to Hank below:

"She stole the key! Stop her!"

"Be careful, dodge!"

The next moment, Elsa, who got up from the ground, screamed, and threw herself on the storm girl, throwing Ororo from the air to the ground on one side. Just when the two entangled girls left the spot, a heavy, whistling piece of discarded steel, like a sharp sword falling from the sky, ruthlessly pierced into the X-Men's plane.

It was like a fist raised by a giant, completely smashing the wings of that beautiful plane.

"My fellow citizens, don't panic, no one will hurt you."

A deep voice rang out over the snowy land. The angel Warren, who was covered in blood and pierced by several twisted steel bars, restrained the wings on his back, also fell from the sky like a falling eagle, precisely It hit Hank's feet.

The white, blood-stained feathers scattered in the air, bringing a different kind of desolation.

In the midst of the chaotic magnetic echoes, wearing a dark red helmet and wearing a black robe, Magneto King Eric Lanciel, like a savior, spread his hands and slowly fell from the air.

"Magnitt!"

Hank shouted angrily:

"What are you going to do? They are our compatriots, are you crazy?"

"quiet!"

Magneto King Eric, who was hovering in the air, glanced at Hank the Beast with indifferent eyes, and said:

"That's why I'm here, to bring our fellow citizens, our brothers, home to their true home, a land of mutants only."

"Only there, they will not be persecuted. Charles, my stubborn and soft-hearted old friend, sticks to his weak beliefs. Relying on you who are also weak will not save thousands of suffering fellows."

Magneto flicked his fingers in the air, and behind him, the plane pierced by steel bars began to vibrate rapidly.

Screws, steel bars, those complex and precise instruments, engines, cockpits, etc., are like real magic, countless pairs of invisible hands move at the same time, in just a few seconds , this huge aircraft was easily disintegrated, and then reorganized under the control of Magneto's will.

The solid metal is easily twisted, and those complicated instruments are changed in shape, just like the world's greatest engineer is designing shocking works.

Under Elsa's stunned gaze, the plane was quickly transformed by Magneto into a weird looking thing similar to a super large bus.

"boom"

The car's doors were thrown open.

Magneto looked at the rescued mutants below, and said softly:

"Time to hit the road, guys."

"From here, the road to our Utopia is very far away."
