American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

Chapter 643 Polaris and Wolverine!

On the southern border, in the desolate Gobi Desert, a luxury car that looks totally out of place is driving on a dirt road.

Old James had a cold face. Along the way, he had the idea of ​​throwing the two strange girls in the back seat out of the car countless times, but every time he was about to do it, he couldn't really step on the brakes.

Along the way, the two girls showed no signs of waking up. Old James could clearly hear their heartbeats, which proved that they were not in danger of life. They just looked too tired or fell into a coma for some other reason.

Having been Wolverine for most of his life, although Old James was reckless in doing things, he was not stupid.

He knew very well how strange the identities of these two little guys were. Combined with Pierce, who gave him a business card and threatened him before, Old James quickly figured out the whole story.

In this world, it was obvious that something happened that he couldn't understand.

The "invaders" from other worlds, the "new mutants" with strange abilities, James couldn't help but think of Zhang Ye and Petra he had met before.

He didn't think much about it at the time, but now after recalling the journey, Old James suddenly found that the woman named Petra had such a complicated look towards him.

That was definitely not a look that could be revealed by reading comics. The other party might have had contact with him, or even be his comrade-in-arms.

But Old James knew very well that he had never seen the other party in his life, and he had never had any memory of these two people, so the result was obvious.

If there really were those "invaders" that Pierce said in this world, I'm afraid Zhang Ye and Petra, who he had contacted, were one of them.

This may also explain why Petra's attitude towards him was so complicated, and why she was so excited when she saw him.

Because in her world, in her memory, he was a real hero.

Thinking of this, Old James' heart suddenly rose with a nameless fire for no reason. He rolled down the window irritably, feeling the air flow hitting his face, which made him feel better.

He never thought of looking for Zhang Ye and Petra, because he didn't want to get involved in these troublesome things now. Maybe in their impression, he should be a hero who can stand on his own, but James knew very well that he was just an old waste now.

He has never been a hero, not at the beginning, and not now.

All this is a mistake. Charles is wrong, Magneto is also wrong. This world, or the mutant race itself, is a huge joke.

In this mood, old James wanted to throw the two strange girls in the back seat on the side of the road and let them fend for themselves, but he didn't know why he hadn't taken any action until now.

Although he didn't know who the two girls were, their identities were already obvious. After all, not everyone could open a portal inside a fast-moving sports car.

Old James didn't know why his luck was so "good". In just a few days, he actually ran into so many invaders from other worlds.

He didn't know what he should do at the moment. Old James now had only one idea, which was to pray that the two people would wake up before he returned to Charles.

In this case, he would have enough reasons to kick the two outsiders out of the car.

After lighting another cigar, Old James coughed violently. He then reached out and took out a bottle of whiskey and drank a sip to calm down.

He didn't care about drunk driving before, but it's different now.

Old James used to know how strong his body was, so he never worried about any accidents. However, since he rented this car, he has regarded this car as more important than anything else, because it is his hope for survival.

After spitting out the smoke from his mouth for a long time, Old James' eyes moved and cast them on the girls in the back seat through the rearview mirror.

After licking his chapped lips, Old James spoke in a deep voice.

"Don't pretend if you wake up."

Although his body functions have degenerated and his body has been corroded by adamantium, Old James' five senses are still very sharp.

When the breathing of one of the girls in the back changed, he knew that the other party had signs of waking up.

But the other party also looked quite cautious. She did not open her eyes immediately, but pretended to be unconscious, judging the surrounding environment and safety.

If her heartbeat had not been a little faster and exposed her, Old James would not have noticed it so quickly.

Sure enough, hearing Old James' voice, the green-haired girl slowly climbed up.

"Where is this? Who are you? Where are you taking us?"

Looking at the girl who was a little aggressive as soon as she woke up, Old James gave her a cold look, then took another sip of wine and stepped on the brakes directly.

Soon, the luxury car slowly stopped on the side of the road.

"Since you're awake." Old James turned his head and looked directly at the delicate little girl. "Then you can get off the bus. I think you should be able to take care of your companions."

"You haven't answered my question yet."

The green-haired girl said expressionlessly, and then she seemed to feel something, looked at Old James in surprise, and couldn't help but speak.

"What the hell are you, why is your body full of metal?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

Old James replied unhappily. "Listen, little girl, I don't know who you are, and I don't want to know. It's my kindness not to throw you out of the car when you are unconscious. Now that you're awake, I have no obligation to take care of you."

Before he finished speaking, the green-haired girl on the other side interrupted him.

"You are also a mutant, right?"

Old James' expression was a little solemn, but he still pretended not to hear it.

"I know you are the same kind of person as us." The green-haired girl looked Old James up and down. Although the other party's appearance now looked a little scary, she did not show any fear.

"Lorna Dane, what's your name?"

Old James glanced at her, without any intention of answering, and directly helped her open the back door, motioning her to get out of the car quickly.

"Is your attitude towards your compatriots so bad?" Lorna frowned and looked at the old man in front of her.

In her impression, mutants have always been united. This is the first time she has been rejected by other mutants after revealing her identity as a mutant.

"Get out of the car." Old James' words were concise.

"I refuse."

Lorna raised her eyebrows, and as her voice fell, the car door closed automatically without anyone controlling it.

Staring at this scene in a daze, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared in Old James' eyes.

He was too familiar with this mutant ability. He had encountered this ability many times before. Because his body was full of metal, this ability was a natural enemy for him.

Lorna obviously also discovered this, so she smiled slightly.

"Sir, I just want to know some information, and this is in the wilderness. Leaving us here is no different from letting me die."

"Who are you?" Old James looked directly at Lorna and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I have already introduced myself." Lorna crossed her arms and stared at Old James with interest. "Tell me about yourself, I don't know who you are yet, and where is this place?"

When Old James heard this question, he still did not say his name, but sighed deeply. "This is the real hell. I don't know how you got here, but listen to my advice, go back to where you came from."

Lorna glanced at her purple-haired companion beside her, and then set her eyes on the man opposite. "I have experienced hell, and now I just want to live well."

Both of them understood that they did not show each other their true inner side. In other words, they were hiding something, which made it almost impossible for them to communicate on a normal channel.

It is easy to break this deadlock, that is, one of them is willing to take the initiative to take that step, only in this way can there be a possibility of continuing communication.

However, whether it is old Wolverine or Polaris, their past has made them seal their hearts.

Just like hedgehogs, it is difficult for them to actively trust others, even if the other party is a mutant like themselves.

Finally, after a long silence, Lorna finally chose to speak.

"I won't make it difficult for you. Just send us to the nearest town. This can be given to you as a reward."

As she spoke, she took out a gold bar from her pocket.

Looking at this scene, old James always felt a strong sense of déjà vu.

At this time, he really wanted to ask, you invaders from other worlds have no other currency, can't you come out with a guy with cash and meet him?

But this is just a thought. Old James knows how serious the gap between mutants and humans is. For mutants, gold is hard currency, and cash often exposes their whereabouts.

Old James thought about it and hesitated whether to complete the transaction.

If the gold Zhang Ye gave him could be exchanged for cash, it would be enough to charter a ship, which means he didn't need to accept Luna's deal.

But no one is afraid of having too much money, not to mention that Old James was also worried about whether there would be any more changes in the process of chartering the ship. After all, the guy just raised the price suddenly, catching him off guard.

Just as Old James was hesitating, he suddenly heard some subtle vibrations in his ears.

He turned his head sharply, staring at the distant horizon.

Between heaven and earth, a strange convoy was speeding forward.

Due to the distance, Old James could not see the identity of those cars clearly, but his instinct made him alert instantly.

Staring at the convoy seriously, Old James always felt that something was wrong. You know, this place has been abandoned for many years, and very few people pass by here, let alone so many people.

Looking at the direction where the convoy was moving, Old James suddenly thought of something in his mind. He glared and grabbed the steering wheel and started the car.

"Fuck! Charles——!!"
