And at this critical juncture, if they continue to act regardless of the consequences, it would be a slap in the face of the patriarch of the Roosevelt family.

By then, they will have to deal with half of the United States.

Even if other families do not come forward to speak for them, they will still have to face pressure from the entire United States.

When that time really comes, Charles can even imagine that it will not be Sebastian Shaw but them who want to start a war and destroy the world in front of the media.

For a moment, as soon as he thought of this, Charles' originally pale face became even gloomier.

"Then what should we do?!"

"Just wait like this?"

At this time, after looking at Eric who was standing not far behind him with a gloomy face, Charles retracted his gaze and looked at Maura in front of him again, then asked.

After all, it is impossible to take action now, but if no action is taken, all previous efforts will be in vain.

The team that was built with great difficulty may collapse at this point.

It can be said that both the front and rear roads were blocked at this moment.

"I can ask my people to investigate and see what they talked about."

"Besides that, I will also try to find out as much information as possible, but all of this takes time. Before I get back to you, you must keep your people stable."

"Everything is waiting for me!"

After hearing what Charles said, Mora, who also knew that this matter was difficult to handle, looked deeply at Charles in front of him, then gritted his teeth and spoke.

At this point, she was ready to gamble her future.

After all, with her current level, let alone investigating Roosevelt, she is not even qualified to be the butler of their family’s butler.

And once discovered, at best you will be fired and have to pack up and leave, at worst you may even be sent to prison for attempting to investigate international secrets.

But none of this matters to Mora now.

Just think of it as paying off a debt.

At this moment, Mora was thinking the same thing in her heart.

But for Charles, who can easily sense other people's thoughts, although he did not deliberately try to sense Mora's thoughts.

But as lovers, Charles could understand a lot from just a glance.

Not to mention what the other party just said.

Although Mora's position has been promoted because of them.

But no matter how high they rise, as the first family of the United States, why should they be qualified to let you, a small CIA agent, investigate?

And let alone CIA agents, even the director of the CIA would not be able to investigate without the president's order.

"No, Maura, let me take care of this."

“Although I don’t know what means Sebastian Xiao used, it is clear that what is coming next is not something you should get involved in.”

After seeing the determined look on Maura's face, Charles couldn't help but wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then spoke in a deep voice.

After all, this is just a feud between them and Sebastian Shaw, and there is no reason to involve Mora.

"No, I brought you in."

"I will definitely take responsibility to the end."

After hearing Charles' words, Maura's heart couldn't help but jump, as if she felt something was going to happen. Then she looked at Charles in front of her and spoke.

After all, everything hasn't started yet. If we go back and try other methods, there is still hope.

But once they are asked to do it, it will be too late.

"It is not my fault."

"I got you involved."

Looking at the woman in front of him who made Charles' heart beat for the first time, he couldn't help but stroke her forehead with his right hand, and then said with a trembling voice.

Immediately, Charles' ability was activated.

At this moment, Mora felt his mind go blank.

When she came to her senses again, she found herself in front of a group of strangers for no apparent reason.

And the blond man in front of her was still looking at her with a 'heartbroken? ' look?

I don't know why, but Maura always feels weird.

But her brain told her that her mission had been completed and she just needed to go back and deliver the task.

"Okay, that's it."

"My mission has been completed. You just need to wait here for the next order from the bureau."

Immediately, after shaking his head to get rid of these strange thoughts, Mora looked at the man in front of him with a strange expression, and then looked at the mutants of the X-Men not far away. Then he spoke to everyone and gave a few words of instructions, then turned around and walked away.

"Charles, she is..."

After seeing Maura walking away, Riven, who had seen the whole process, couldn't help but walk up. She looked at Charles with a complicated expression, then looked at Maura who had disappeared around the corner not far away, and then spoke hesitantly.

Although she vaguely guessed something.

But, that shouldn’t be the case.

After all, according to the development of the two people's relationship, although they have not confessed their feelings to each other, even she can see that the two of them can be said to be a couple for sure.

And in this situation, would Charles really do that? !

"What we are going to do next is a bit dangerous."

"As an ordinary person, she shouldn't be involved."

After hearing what Raven said, Charles smiled as if relieved, and then spoke.

However, as Raven was standing next to Charles at this time, she could even see the crystal clear tears in the corner of Charles' eyes at a glance.

"..."

At this moment, although Raven knew that she should say something, when the words came to her lips, looking at her friend in front of her, Raven finally swallowed the words back and just patted Charles' shoulder silently.

At this moment, Eric, who was not far away, said that he was waiting for news from Charles, but he kept staring at Charles, especially when he saw Maura's expression suddenly change, and the way she looked at Charles and them as if they were strangers.

He also knew the choice Charles made for him.

At this moment, although Charles didn't say anything, he felt it in his heart.

Charles' status was inevitably elevated by this.

"Everyone!"

"As you just heard, what we are going to do next has been denied by the CIA."

“But I think we should still do it no matter what.”

"At least, we need to investigate the cause of this incident."

"So, if everyone is still thinking about becoming a hero, I think we can stop here, because if we really do it, we might be the real wanted criminals, not heroes."

"I respect your decision."

After a short while of calming down, Charles touched the corners of his eyes, making himself appear more like a calm leader. Then he turned his head to look at his teammates not far away and spoke.

After all, if they were official American agents at the beginning, they were acting with the appointment of the US government.

Then from a moment on, they will be the real traitors.

You may even be wanted.

So there was no way Charles would lead them down this path of no return.

Even in Charles' heart, it was normal even if they all left.

After all, the country doesn't care about it, so why should you, as an individual, care about it?

As expected, after Charles finished speaking, the entire hangar room fell into a long silence.

Even here, everyone could clearly hear the rapid heartbeats of their teammates.

"I think... I may not be able to go on."

"I'm sorry, Charles, I'm sorry everyone, I still have family. Even though they haven't been very nice to me, if I really break the law and get wanted, I think they will definitely be implicated."

After a long time, the silence was finally broken by the angel Salvador's initiative to speak. However, this time, everyone present turned their eyes to her.

'lie!'

This time, looking at the angel Salvador not far away, although Charles had already expected in his heart that someone might withdraw, he had to admit that when someone actually brought it up, his heart couldn't help but tighten.

A sense of wonder filled his mind, especially when the person was telling lies.

After all, not to mention that they had done background checks on these players in advance, just Salvador's emotions were enough to make Charles feel that something was wrong.

After all, no matter how deceitful a person's mouth is, his subconscious thoughts are the most accurate emotions.

And all of this could be clearly perceived by Charles.

"pretty good!"

"It's okay to think about your family before you do anything."

However, things have come to this point. Even if the other party was lying or making up stories, Charles had no reason to stop them. On the contrary, he had no choice but to agree with them.

And after Charles agreed, the apology in Salvador's eyes became even more intense.

But for her, if she wanted to be a hero like she did at the beginning, she could still barely convince herself.

But as it is now, even though she has been rejected by the US government, she still has to do some meaningless things, even meaningless sacrifices. This is hard for her to accept.

She doesn't care whether she will die or not. What she cares about is whether her death is valuable and meaningful.

If she had to die like a fool, unknown and anonymous, she would rather do a striptease in front of the whole world before she died.

"what about you?!"

"Any more?"

"Don't be afraid, just speak up."

"Otherwise, even if we really start the action, if we regret it after we are on the battlefield, the price we pay will be even higher than it is now."

"After all, our enemy is extremely cunning and ruthless. He won't give you a chance to stop midway."

After speaking to Salvador, Charles immediately looked at the rest of the people and spoke seriously.

But what surprised Charles this time was that even after more than ten minutes, or even half an hour, no one stood up in the end.

On the contrary, the angel Salvador, after seeing his former companions, became extremely firm in his stance at this moment.

The whole person seemed to feel "betrayed" and began to blush at a speed visible to the naked eye.

'Shame, hatred, betrayal, jealousy.'

At this moment, all kinds of negative emotions began to emerge in Salvador's mind. In the end, he spread his wings without saying a word and flew away.

Until finally disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Charles, don't worry. Since we agreed before that we are a team, no matter what happens, we are a team."

“Never abandon, never give up.”

"That's right, and who says there are no unsung heroes?"

After seeing Salvador fly away, at this moment, the remaining people present spoke one by one what they had not said before because of the other party's face.

"thank you all."

After hearing what these people said, Charles, who had already been mentally prepared for the possibility that they might leave, couldn't help but speak with a moved look on his face at this moment.

"Charles, from now on, let's fight side by side!"

At this moment, Eric walked over slowly, looked at his good brother in front of him, then stretched out his hand, bumped his fist with Charles', and then spoke.

"So be it!"

"Set off!!"

……

the other side.

"Sebastian Xiao, are you sure that this little bottle of medicine in my hand is as magical as you say?"

At this moment, in the Roosevelt family's manor, an old man with a face full of ravines and dense wrinkles like tree rings, picked up the small blue medicine in front of him with a greedy look on his face, and then asked.

At this time, next to it, there was its exclusive research team, who were conducting various medical analyses around an opened bottle of medicine.

However, although it has not ended yet, just by looking at the exaggerated expressions of his exclusive medical team members, the old man named Roosevelt already knows the magic of this medicine bottle.

"Of course, my dear Mr. Roosevelt."

"You have to believe that in today's America, no one dares to lie in front of the three words Roosevelt."

After hearing the words of the old man in front of him, Sebastian Xiao spoke calmly.
