American comics: Hydra scientists

For several days, Charles waited for the coming rune.

As days passed, Charles became more and more panicked. He found that he could no longer detect the mind of that Hydra, not just this one, but almost all Hydras that knew their actions.

This made Charles increasingly restless and he felt as if he had done something wrong.

After being unable to sleep for more than half a month, Charles lost weight visibly, his eye sockets were sunken, and his face looked haggard.

New York, Strategic Scientific Investigations Headquarters.

Fury hurried into the director's office.

"Director, Luska is starting to take action."

Carter suddenly stood up from his seat, with a serious look on his face: "Did they attack those mutants?"

"Yes, Director, last night, Luska's people launched an attack on the students who left Xavier College." Fury nodded with a heavy expression.

Fury's expression gave Carter an ominous premonition, and he immediately asked, "What are the casualties?"

After a moment of silence, Fury replied: "Luska seems to have a weapon in his hand that suppresses mutant abilities. Those mutants have almost no power to fight back."

Carter's face became extremely ugly.

She has been trying to provoke conflict between Charles and Rune, asking Charles to test Rune.

But when the two sides really confronted each other, she realized how stupid everything she did was. Charles and Lu En were not on the same level at all, and the so-called provocation and testing was simply a joke.

"Did Charles know that his student had been captured?"

Carter was holding a trace of luck in his heart. After expert evaluation, Charles had the power to destroy the world. Once Charles knew that his student had been captured, he would definitely not let Lu En go.

Fury smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Charles doesn't know yet, but I think he will soon."

kindness? Carter looked at Fury with doubtful eyes.

"Luska's people have taken the captured mutants to Xavier Manor and may have arrived now."

Carter took a breath, unable to hide the shock in his heart.

Was that man trying to start a fight?

What is he trying to do?

******

Lu En knew that his actions could not be hidden from Carter, and he did not want to hide it.

In the next period of time, he will start the "Empire Project" with all his strength. He has no time or mood to play tricks with those rats in the gutter.

As the saying goes: It takes a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no thousand days to guard against a thief.

In order to ensure that he can start the "Empire Project" without any distractions, Luen is planning to solve the mutant problem before the start of the plan. At the same time, he will show off his muscles to some people to scare those with evil intentions.

The sun is rising, today is a rare good weather, the sky is clear and the air is fresh.

It stands to reason that such weather can put people in a good mood, but Charles couldn't feel it at all, and he became more and more restless.

Last night, he entered the underground base to search for Luen's men as usual, but still found nothing.

Just when he was about to finish, he accidentally discovered that the students who left suddenly disappeared from his perception, not just one student, but all of them, including Hank and Raven.

This discovery shocked Charles, and he guessed Lu En's purpose.

So he came to the castle gate from last night and quietly waited for Rune's arrival.

Just before noon, dozens of cars arrived at Xavier Manor, where the gates were open.

Wearing a black trench coat and black leather gloves, the domineering Luen took the lead and was followed by a succession of big men in black pushing the mutants who disappeared yesterday out of the car.

Looking at Charles's haggard and blue face, Lu En's eyes revealed a teasing look.

"Charles, it seems like you haven't had a good rest during this time."

Seeing the mutants who were tied up and wearing unknown collars around their necks who were too ashamed to look at him, Charles' uneasy heart calmed down.

The unknown is the most terrifying.

Although all his students have been arrested, they are all still alive and well, at least for the time being. Everything depends on what the man wants.

It was useless to argue with the man over words, so Charles asked straight to the point: "Mr. Luhn, what do you want?"

"Surrender." Luen was also very straightforward. He just wanted to solve the mutant issue as soon as possible, "or die."

Charles' expression changed. He didn't expect that Lu En would not leave any chance of survival at all. He also thought that Lu En could give them a chance of survival with his little help at that time. It seemed that their escape made Lu En very angry.

Lu En didn't know about Charles' psychological activities, and if he knew, he would just sneer at it.

Running away just gave Lu En an excuse and would not affect the final result.

"Charles, don't promise him. Even if we die, we will not surrender to this executioner."

Before Charles could speak, Raven, who was being held by several big men, struggled and shouted, staring at Lu En with angry eyes.

Lu En's expression remained unchanged, but he gently raised his hand.

Charles was shocked and shouted, "No."

It's a pity it's over.

Two mutant students in the crowd tilted their heads and fell limply to the ground.

Raven looked at the blood pouring out from the necks of the two mutant students in horror. A strong murderous aura surged through his body, and he struggled wildly.

"I'm going to kill you bastard!"

"Shut up!"

"To shut up!"

Overlapping with the hysterical roars of Charles and Hank, two more mutant students fell to the ground helplessly.

"You idiot, do you want to kill everyone?"

Hank looked at the woman he admired with a ferocious face, angry and disappointed. He knew that Raven was impulsive and stubborn, but he didn't expect this woman to be so stupid.

The expressions of Hank and Charles shocked Raven like lightning. She stared blankly at the four young mutants on the ground, her mind going blank.

Dull eyes passed across the faces of every mutant student, and the only responses she received were fear, disappointment, and disgust.

"me......"

The words came to his lips, but Raven couldn't say them.

At this time, Luen Gujing Wubo's voice sounded in his ears.

"Next time, she will be the one who dies."

A mutant girl who was handcuffed behind her back was pulled out of the crowd by an invisible force.

The girl is about sixteen or seventeen years old, very young, with beautiful blond hair.

But now there was only fear on that young and immature face, and there was deep hatred in the eyes looking at Raven.

The girl's eyes were like a sharp knife that pierced into Raven's heart. At this moment, her strong and stubborn heart seemed to have been blown to pieces by a bomb.

All the pride, stubbornness and anger in her heart turned into fear of that man at this moment.

Only then did she fully understand why Charles turned a blind eye to the mastermind behind the scenes and instead tried to ease the relationship between the two parties.

"Hey, you really don't have to do this. Tell me your real purpose."

Charles looked sad and asked with a hint of pleading.

With a smile on his lips, Lu En thought to himself, it is convenient to talk to smart people.
