Chapter 316 Nickname (1/2)

"Once, mutants were a vulnerable group in this world, and they needed to hide their identities to avoid the hostility of some people with ulterior motives..."

Nightwalker pushed the wheelchair and walked in the castle. The prophet Wade chattered about the past of this world.

"The power awakened by most mutants is not strong, but they have to face huge malice and discrimination from society. This has also led some mutants to hate ordinary people. Magneto is the best among them. His ability is to control any form of magnetic field. This power is particularly powerful in the modern society of the steel jungle. A guy I know hates Magneto's ability very much."

In the dim castle, there are a large number of mutants hiding in it, watching the Avengers.

"There are mutants who hate humans, and there are mutants who are willing to live in peace. In fact, for a long time in the past, the X-Men formed by Professor X and the Brotherhood of Mutants led by Magneto have been fighting until the appearance of Apocalypse."

When talking about Apocalypse, Wade's expression in the wheelchair obviously became a little more complicated.

"In the face of absolute power, all resistance becomes meaningless. Apocalypse is so powerful that neither the X-Men led by Professor X nor the Brotherhood of Mutants led by Magneto can resist. The world has changed to a new king of mutants overnight. From that day on, ordinary people have become the vulnerable group in the world."

"Originally, I thought that such a rule would last for a long, long time, until one day a guy called Thanos came to this world."

As Wade described, Nightcrawler stopped, and a woman made of diamonds appeared in front of the Avengers.

"This is Emma, ​​of course mutants are more accustomed to calling her the White Queen."

In Wade's introduction, the woman called the White Queen nodded to the Avengers.

"In normal state, she is a very charming lady, but unfortunately, in order to resist the influence of the crazy factor, Emma has to keep her current appearance all the time."

A figure made of diamonds gave the Avengers a deeper understanding of the abilities of mutants.

"Emma."

Letting Nightcrawler hold up his head, Wade gestured to the White Queen.

The latter immediately raised her palm, and the powerful mental power created a realistic illusion in front of everyone.

"I am a mutant!"

In the ruins of the city, Thanos pointed the Infinity Gauntlet in his hand at Apocalypse in front of him, and the Infinity Gems inlaid on the surface of the gauntlet flashed a faint light.

Kneeling on the ground with his wounded body, Apocalypse said to Thanos in front of him.

"I hope these people still remember you after everything."

As Thanos' voice fell, the power that erupted from the Infinity Gauntlet instantly enveloped the other party and turned it into ashes and dissipated.

...

"So, what is Thanos' purpose?"

Getting away from the illusion created by the White Queen, returning to the gloomy environment of the castle.

Tony's mind was full of the scene of Thanos waving the Infinity Gauntlet at the end of the picture.

"Don't tell me, it's here to save you."

"I don't know."

Wade also had no answer to this.

"In fact, after killing Apocalypse, Thanos left this world. It seems that he came for Apocalypse."

Shaking his head to let Nightcrawler put him in a more comfortable position, Wade glanced at the people in front of him and finally stopped at Colin, who was the only one he was not familiar with.

"Although Apocalypse is dead, his influence on this world has not ended. On the contrary, with his death, the whole world fell into endless madness."

Speaking of this, whether it was Nightcrawler behind Wade's head or the White Queen incarnated as a diamond, their faces showed lingering fear.

"Apocalypse once absorbed Professor X's ability, and Professor X's ability lies in his powerful mental power. He can read other people's thoughts and memories without physical contact. At the same time, he can also deprive and control other people's thoughts and actions through his ability, and even connect to all people in the world when necessary, whether ordinary people or mutants."

"Of course, under normal circumstances, Professor X must use a device called a brain wave enhancer to use this ability."

"However, after absorbing this ability, Apocalypse is no longer so troublesome. He combined his ability with Professor X's powerful mental power and spread his consciousness to the entire human race, causing everyone in the world to be infected with mutant factors. When Apocalypse was still alive, these mutant factors were still under control, but with his death, the mutant factors lurking in everyone's body fell into madness in an instant and became the crazy factors of today."

"As long as it is in this world, anyone who has been connected and infected by Apocalypse cannot escape the influence of the crazy factor. The weaker the mutant, the more severely affected the crazy factor is."

"Sorry..."

The Avengers were a little shocked to learn the truth of this world from Wade.

Banner frowned, interrupted Wade's description, and expressed his inner doubts: "If according to what you said, everyone in this world is infected by the madness factor, then how do you get rid of this impression?"

Looking at Wade, who only had a head left, Banner did not think he was the powerful mutant the other party said.

"Good question."

Wade's expression seemed very calm in Banner's suspicious eyes.

"Actually, I don't know why."

However, the answer he gave was somewhat unexpected to the Avengers.

"Logically speaking, I should be like those demented people outside, under the influence of the madness factor, I will only shout kill kill kill every day, and I don't need to use my brain to think, but I don't. Not only that, I can also feel that my consciousness has become clearer and clearer, as if the madness factor has no effect on me. Of course, it is also possible that I have been crazy from the beginning, but because other people in this world are crazier than me, I seem to be rational in comparison."

As for whether he was affected by the madness factor, Wade himself couldn't tell the reason.

"We found the head of the prophet in the ruins. He guided us to this castle and built a shelter here to avoid the attacks of the dementia faction."

Holding Wade's head, Nightwalker briefly explained the process of the mutants discovering each other and building a shelter.

"In addition, the mutants also found that the protection of the prophet can slow down the erosion of the madness factor on consciousness."

This may be the key reason why Wade is called a prophet.

In this world full of madness, an existence that can bring rationality can indeed be called a prophet.

Even if he only has a head left.

If there were not too few rational people left, and the whole world lost control after Apocalypse's death, the survivors in the shelter would not dare to take risks.

Perhaps, Wade would not be treated as a prophet, but lie in the laboratory.

"Slow down the erosion of the crazy factor."

Among the Avengers, Colin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard the explanation given by Nightcrawler.

This is obviously very different from the Wade or Deadpool he knows. After all, in his impression, Wade's ability does not include this.

"Could it be because, in the mutant world ruled by Apocalypse, Wade's ability has also changed in some way."

While Colin was thinking, Wade in Nightcrawler's arms also made new movements.

At his signal, Nightcrawler came to Colin with his head. Looking at this strange face, Wade did not hide the doubts in his eyes: "So, man, what's your name?"

Looking down and looking at the head in Nightcrawler's arms, Colin smiled and replied: "Colin Luper."

"So, are you also a member of the Avengers? What's your nickname?"

"Unfortunately, I'm not a member of the Avengers, and I don't have a nickname."

Hearing that Colin didn't have his own nickname, Wade in Nightcrawler's arms immediately became excited.

"As a superhero, how can you not have a nickname? Everyone has a nickname. For example, when I still had a body, I had a resounding name, Deadpool, which is much better than the name of the prophet. How about I help you pick a name? What do you think of Naughty Ghost? Children like this name, or Captain Invincible. Speaking of which, I still don't know what your ability is. Can you fly..."

Looking at Wade who was getting more and more excited and chattering, even though he knew the other person's personality, Colin's expression on his face was somewhat helpless.

"I can fly. In addition, if you want to give me a name, I think Superman is enough."

Interrupting Wade's curious questioning, Colin said directly.

"Superman, Superman, damn, why didn't I think of this name at the beginning? This name will make you the protagonist of a superhero movie!"

Hearing the name given by Colin, Wade shouted in annoyance.

"And you can fly, it's not fair, you can't have a cool name and still be able to fly!"

"Even Spider-Man can't fly."

"Why do you have to involve me?"

Peter was a little surprised when Wade suddenly used him as an example.

"Spider-Man is not a cool name, and you can't fly. If I were Spider-Man, I might cry directly."

Under the mask, listening to Wade's increasingly exaggerated description, Peter's expression became more and more embarrassed, and he even began to doubt himself in his heart.

"Mr. Stark, is the name Spider-Man really that bad?"

"Don't worry too much, kid, this is the most suitable name for you."

Tony patted Peter on the shoulder and comforted him casually.

"Speaking of which, what is your purpose in coming to this world?"

After a series of complaints about Spider-Man's name, Wade in Nightcrawler's arms suddenly changed the subject and asked the Avengers.

Avengers: "?!"

Wade's sudden question obviously shocked the Avengers.

Steve frowned and asked, "How did you find out?"

"Don't be nervous, it's just time travel, it's not a big deal."

Looking at the Avengers who were facing a great enemy, Wade's expression seemed very calm: "I know a lot of mutants who can do this. As for how to find out, didn't I say that there are Avengers in my world? Under the rule of Apocalypse, all members of the Avengers became mutants, but you don't have any mutant characteristics now, so..."

Although Wade didn't finish his words, the Avengers present had already heard what he meant.

In the dark and lifeless castle, the Avengers looked at each other, and then Captain America Steve began to explain.

"We were looking for a way back and accidentally came to this world."

Through a brief description, Steve told Wade in front of him about the world of the Avengers and the period of the anti-world.

"It seems that not only our world is in crisis, but other worlds are also not peaceful."

After learning about the situation of other dimensional universes from Steve, Wade couldn't help but complain: "Why do I always feel like I'm watching a series of movies? The more I watch, the more plots of the destruction of various worlds there are. Can't we design some relaxing plots?"

"In short, from what you said, we need to find a way back as soon as possible. I know a guy who may be able to provide you with some help. He was killed for resisting the rule of Apocalypse. He was even worse than me and didn't even have a head left. But he left a little thing. I originally planned to keep it for myself to use secretly. Unfortunately, with only one head left, I couldn't even turn the button."

As he said, Wade asked Nightwalker to put him back on the wheelchair.

"Do you need my help?"

On the side, Colin, who saw this scene, asked at the right time, and at the same time reached out to touch the armrest of Wade's wheelchair.

"No, I can do it alone."

Shaking his head, declining Colin's "kindness", Night Walker pushed the wheelchair in the direction pointed by Wade.

[Contact the twisted time node, collect a large number of time fragments × 150]

Watching the back of Night Walker leaving, a line of looming text flashed in front of Colin.

However, the content of the text was a little unexpected.

"Things seem to be more interesting than expected."

His eyes stayed on the text for a while, looking at the hint marked [Time Fragment (Wade Winston Wilson/Apocalypse)] on it, the corners of Colin's mouth slightly moved forward and raised a shallow amplitude.
