Chapter 158 Professor X Loses Control
The process of searching for Logan was not smooth.
Just as Caliban said, his ability has degenerated to a certain extent. He could originally accurately lock the position of any mutant, but now he only has a general direction.
And sometimes he would lose the trace of Logan.
In addition, Logan and his friends now believe that Caliban is dead, and the people of the Alkali Group are chasing them. His mobile phone is also turned off, and Caliban cannot contact him by mobile phone.
At present, Caliban can only track Logan and his party with his slight sense.
Fortunately, there are three mutants on Logan's side, so Caliban can find them easily.
"Go forward along this highway, and you should be able to find them. When you get here, their goal seems to have not changed."
Into the night, after refueling and getting on the highway, Caliban pointed to the highway ahead and said to Kevin.
Kevin looked at Caliban, who was already sleepy, and asked:
"Do you want to take a break?"
This guy is also an old man, and his body is not as good as before. The high-intensity use of his ability made his body tremble.
Kevin is not a guy who likes to torture people. Seeing that Caliban seemed to be unable to hold on, he thought of letting him rest for a while, so that he would not die suddenly in his car.
"What if they change lanes in the middle of the road? If they are too far away at that time, I really can't continue to track them."
Caliban is worried that he will lose the trace of Logan and others.
Because according to Kevin's description, he can be sure that Logan and others have been involved in a big trouble.
They need helpers, not helpers like Caliban, but Kevin, who is very powerful at a glance.
So even though his body feels extremely uncomfortable, Caliban still insists on using his ability to track Logan and others.
Kevin looked at his slightly trembling body, took out the map he had just bought at the gas station, pointed to a big city on it and asked:
"The biggest city along this road is Oklahoma City, right?"
"Yes."
"Is the biggest casino in Oklahoma also here?"
"I don't know about that, but there are indeed several casinos there... Do you think they will go here?"
"Give it a try, it doesn't cost money anyway, so before I get to my destination, you should rest first, I will find a way to find them."
Kevin put down the map and started the navigation to Oklahoma.
Although Kevin watched the movie "Wolverine 3" a long time ago, Kevin vaguely remembered that Logan in the plot once took Laura to take refuge near the casino.
The reason why I was impressed by this incident was that Kevin was still commenting at the time, saying that it was really okay to let the little girl go to the casino with him?
Then it brought up the question of whether the actor of the little girl Laura had been to the casino during the filming, which is very worth exploring.
Because of this, Kevin still remembers this plot clearly.
Logan and his team will pass by the casino on the way, which is what Kevin remembered. Therefore, as long as they search the nearby casinos before tomorrow night, they should be able to find them.
Perhaps Kevin's confident attitude infected Caliban.
Caliban could no longer hold back and folded down the passenger seat, saying:
"Okay, then I'll take a short break, and you can call me when you get there... I get sleepy when I get older..."
He muttered, and then muttered a few unclear words, and then there was no sound.
He actually fell asleep directly.
"Alas."
Looking at Caliban like this, Kevin sighed.
Think about the previous Caliban, who was at least a figure in the underground world.
Because he has the ability to find mutants, he gathered a lot of mutants around him and made transactions related to mutants underground.
Even when Apocalypse appeared, he had to go to him first to find the mutants that Apocalypse wanted to find.
As a result, now he can only curl up in the car to sleep.
If Kevin hadn't appeared, he probably wouldn't even have the leisure to sleep here, and would have just lay in the cold carriage and died with the enemy.
This is the case with Caliban, Professor X and Wolverine.
Professor X actually got Alzheimer's disease, and the world's strongest brain got a disease that no one could remember.
Wolverine has also grown old, and sometimes he can't even stretch out his steel claws. It used to be a passive self-healing ability, but now it needs to be used actively.
This is the end of the heroes.
When Kevin thought about them, he couldn't help but think of the Alkali Group and his own Vought Group.
In fact, what Kevin is going to do in the black robe world next is similar to the Alkali Group.
First, by analyzing compound No. 5, he deduced a genetic drug that can eliminate compound No. 5 in the blood, and then promoted these drugs to all parts of the world, so that superpowers will slowly lose their superpowers.
In the end, only a limited number of superhumans will be retained to work for Kevin and become superheroes who "guard" the black robe world.
Kevin planned so, and he didn't feel anything wrong before.
But now that he came to the world of Wolverine and saw the old heroes, Kevin felt that... his approach seemed to be no different from that of Alkali Corporation.
Kevin thought about this heavy topic, and his thoughts gradually drifted away.
He even almost missed the exit of the highway because he was thinking too much.
Putting the problem of the black robe world behind his mind for the time being, Kevin opened the map navigation to find a casino nearby.
But what surprised Kevin was that there was more than one casino in this city.
This made Kevin hold his forehead.
"It looks like I'll be busy tonight."
...
Caliban slept more comfortably this time.
Mainly because the mysterious mutant didn't wake him up all night.
But when he got up, he found that he was no longer in the car, but inside a hotel.
Sitting up from the bed, he turned his head to look at the window that was tightly blocked by curtains.
The tiny sunlight passed through the gap between the curtains and fell on the patterned carpet. Judging from the sunlight, it was already the next morning, but he didn't know where this place was.
"Oh, are you awake?"
Just as Caliban made such a judgment, he heard the mutant's voice coming from the bathroom.
Raising his head, he saw Kevin sticking his head out of the bathroom with a toothbrush and said to him:
"I saw you were sleeping too soundly, so I didn't wake you up. This is Harrah's Casino in Oklahoma City. Please help me sense and see if Wolverine and the others are here.
"I searched all night last night, and no one in the other two casinos had seen the old man in the wheelchair. Now there is only this place left. If there is no one here, then I'm afraid we can only look for him somewhere else."
"You didn't sleep all night?"
"Are there any problems?"
"No, I just thought that being young is good. "
Caliban sighed slightly.
The older you get, the more exhausted you feel. Kevin didn't sleep all night and felt refreshed, but Caliban slept all night but still felt sore in his waist and back.
It was at this time that Caliban really felt that he was old.
But Caliban just sighed, he didn't say anything else, but closed his eyes to sense the mutants nearby.
After a while, Caliban opened his eyes and smiled:
"You are so lucky, they are really here."
"Oh? Which floor?"
Caliban looked up.
"Probably above here... three or four floors?"
The closer the mutants are, the more accurate the sensing range of Caliban's ability is. Now he can lock the approximate location of Logan and others, not just one direction.
But after saying that, Caliban frowned again:
"But there seem to be only two mutants up there... Logan, it seems not. "
"Maybe he went out to buy food. It's almost noon now."
Kevin answered casually, and walked out of the bathroom with his coat, "I'll go upstairs to see what you want to eat. If you don't want to go out, ask the waiter to bring it upstairs. I'll come back to find you after I find Logan and the others."
"Okay, I'm also--"
Caliban was about to say something, probably wanting to say something like 'I'm hungry too'.
But suddenly, he froze on the bed, his body motionless, his movements frozen in place, as if time had been suspended.
Kevin looked at him and met Caliban's eyes.
His eyes moved slightly, proving that he was still conscious at the moment, but he couldn't control his body.
"...Professor X is sick? "
Kevin asked Caliban an obvious nonsense question. Caliban, who had been fixed by Professor X's ability, could only roll his eyes to answer his question.
Since Professor X suffered from Alzheimer's disease, his ability would go out of control from time to time if he did not suppress it with drugs.
When out of control, he would use his ability to attack everything around him indiscriminately.
Forcing the other party to stay in place and accept the invasion of his thought storm.
The reason why Kevin is immune is that he has been worried about Professor X since he knew that this world is the world of X-Men. He can read his thoughts, so he has been using defensive magic patterns to strengthen his mental defense.
Professor X, whose ability has degenerated to this extent, his thought storm will not affect Kevin.
But except Kevin, everyone in the casino is probably fixed by Professor X's ability.
If this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, when Professor X recovers, I am afraid that everyone in the casino except Kevin, Wolverine and X23 will be killed by Professor X.
The situation is urgent, and there is no time to say too much. Kevin quickly left the room and ran upstairs.
Originally, Caliban said that Professor X was on the third or fourth floor upstairs, and Kevin was not sure how to find Professor X.
Now that Professor X was ill, with the help of the ‘Heart of the Deep Sea’, Kevin could vaguely sense the source of his psychic abilities.
Following the source of his abilities, Kevin could determine Professor X’s location.
Counting three floors up from Kevin’s current floor, that was Professor X’s floor.
After determining the location, Kevin ran upstairs without stopping. When he saw Wolverine struggling to move towards a room in the corridor of the target floor, Kevin was sure that his induction was correct.
Without saying hello to Wolverine, Kevin trotted all the way to the door of a room in the other’s shocked eyes.
The door was locked, and Kevin did not have the leisure to unlock it, so he kicked the door away.
Behind the door, the figure of Professor X, sitting in a wheelchair, appeared in front of Kevin.
Also appearing in Kevin’s eyes was the little girl who fell to the ground with a syringe next to Professor X.
She was X23, Laura Kinney.
