I'm a hero in Marvel

Chapter 66 Playboy

The mutant leader was a big, sturdy guy who looked like a giant in the legend. Logan recognized this guy, and although he looked a little old, his appearance had not changed much.

This person is none other than Magneto’s right-hand man, Juggernaut!

Red Tank looked at Logan who was running towards him, smiled and clapped his hands, saying: "You are faster than I expected, Logan!"

Although Logan is old, his sharp claws are still deadly. His adamantium claws are extended, and he roars at Juggernaut fiercely: "Juggernaut! Let those two kids go, or you'll be in trouble!"

However, Logan's threats only resulted in more brutal treatment of the child. Red Tank responded contemptuously: "Logan, you have been hiding for so long and we still found you. Do you think I came here just to reminisce? It's really stupid of you to threaten me."

"Put away your sharp claws, otherwise my men will get overly nervous and might strangle the children's throats." Red Tank was not joking, and Logan could only put away his claws helplessly.

"Red Tank, our grudge has nothing to do with the children! Let them go, if you are looking for me just for me." Red Tank listened and just smiled without saying anything.

"Looking for you? An outdated and useless X-Man? Did all your companions die in New York? I don't think a person who survived by chance is of much value!"

Red Tank's words were like a sharp sword piercing Logan's heart, making him so painful that he couldn't breathe.

"As for you, Logan. Why do you think you were able to live in Canada safely for so many years? It's all because of Magneto's mercy! Otherwise, you would have died long ago!"

If Magneto was really merciful, why would he let billions of people around the world fall into war? Is the death of more than a billion people the result of mercy? ! Logan was angry, but he couldn't refute it because the child was still in their hands.

"What on earth do you want!" Logan looked at Lily, who was having difficulty breathing and almost suffocating, and shouted, "She can't breathe!"

Red Tank glanced at eight-year-old Lily. The little girl's once cute face had lost all color, and her chest was heaving violently, unable to breathe in fresh air.

Red Tank signaled his men to loosen up a little so that the girl could catch her breath.

"Do you know about the Sentinel Project?" Red Tank revealed the true purpose to Logan.

"The Sentinel Project was a conspiracy by the human government to exterminate all mutants. But they gave up before they could do anything about it. This is a good thing for mutants."

Logan listened quietly to Red Tank's story. "And now, we have new intelligence. In New York, a group of little guys are planning to restart the Sentinel Project. This is not a good thing for our mutant society."

Red Tank looked directly at Logan and said, "Magneto is giving you a chance to atone for your sins. Find those little guys underground. Magneto will forgive your previous crimes. He will also pardon your son and daughter-in-law."

"The choice is yours now, Logan. Make your decision."

Juggernaut said that Logan should make a choice, but does Logan have a choice now? His grandchildren are still in the hands of the other party, and his son and Katie are wanted by Magneto, and their lives are uncertain.

It's not easy living in this world of mutants. Sometimes, there's just no choice!

......

new York.

In the dim and vast sewer, an old man sat in a wheelchair. His legs were amputated at the knees, and the wheelchair became his only means of movement. He was very old and had difficulty breathing on his own. He needed to rely on life support equipment and a ventilator to maintain his life.

Behind him, there was another equally old man. He looked healthier and younger, but in fact he was also very old. His face seemed to be disfigured, with wrinkled skin sticking to his facial muscles, which looked very scary.

He pushed the wheelchair slowly forward.

"Tony, why did you bring me down here? Don't you know how dangerous we are now? Magneto is hunting us down everywhere!"

The old man sitting in the wheelchair, who is very old and may die at any time, is the Iron Man Tony Stark!

The old man pushing the wheelchair is the Night Walker who was rumored to have died many years ago!

"We have to come here, Nightcrawler. For the final fight."

Tony's breathing is louder than his voice. He is no longer the superhero and playboy he once was. He can't walk without a wheelchair, and he may suffocate at any time without a ventilator.

Age spots covered his cheeks, like the marks of the countdown to death.

Night Walker's hands are no longer as strong as they were fifty years ago, and they tremble slightly when he pushes the wheelchair.

The two former superheroes are now like rats in a sewer, slowly walking into the darkness.

New York's wide and dark sewers have a history of hundreds of years. When they were first designed, they took into account the drainage problems that might be caused by heavy rains, so the passages here are wide enough for a BMW MINI to speed through... ...

The old Nightcrawler pushes Tony Stark, who relies on a life support system, and they move through the dark sewers like rats in the dark, or those who cannot see the light. The former superheroes are no longer glorious. Ever since Magneto unified the mutants around the world and brutally suppressed the human government.

The superheroes in this world either succumb to Magneto and become his pawns to kill their own kind, or most of the rest are eliminated by him. Magneto is like the Nazis who built the Auschwitz concentration camp, locking up all those who oppose him. Speaking of concentration camps, Magneto has a lot of experience in this area, because he grew up in a concentration camp and knows the life and loopholes there.

Therefore, the concentration camps he built were the cruelest in human history. As Magneto said, the high-pressure rule of the human government forced the mutants to rise up in rebellion. And Magneto's causal cycle is difficult for many ordinary people to accept. But unlike mutants, when ordinary humans are oppressed and lose the tools to resist, they cannot easily revolt like mutants.

Because every mutant is a weapon in itself, especially those powerful Alpha and Omega mutants, who do not need any equipment, and their own strength alone is enough to be feared. Ordinary people cannot fight against mutants without external help. Except for a very small number of mutants with inferior genes and failed fusion, most mutants are stronger than ordinary people.

And those top combat forces, one person can overthrow an army division, or even cause greater damage. In order to fight against mutants, the humans in the underground resistance organization tried every possible means.

"I contacted some people in the former military, and they found a technology that was covered up by the military many years ago." Tony, who is sitting in a wheelchair, has a soft voice. His vocal cords are declining and he can't speak loudly. In addition, his lungs lack breathing capacity, which makes his voice lack strength.

"What technique?" Nightcrawler, who was pushing Tony, spoke in a bad tone, his voice remaining low.

"The Sentinel Project! This is what Hydra wanted to use to eliminate all mutants." When he said this, Tony's old and dim eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light.

"That's a killing machine specifically designed to deal with mutants! We need this!" Tony said seriously.

"Hydra? They're not good people. In fact, they're almost like Magneto." Nightcrawler's tone was exhausted and lifeless, like an elm tree that was beginning to decay. Even the pests that had depended on it in the past began to leave the dying tree, no matter how lush and leafy it had once been.

"Do you think it's meaningful to say this now?" Tony suddenly raised his voice, but unfortunately, even though he tried his best to roar, his voice was still weak, like the last flicker of a candle that was about to go out, and it disappeared in an instant. If you don't listen carefully, you can hardly notice the difference.

"At least Hydra is still human, not mutants! Mutants ruined my life, they took away my company, killed Pepper, and made me lose my legs! Even Jarvis was destroyed by them!" Tony was excited at first, but he was crying at the end.

"I have nothing left! What do we care about?! The world has already become like this, can it get worse?" Night Walker's voice was full of despair.

"Have you forgotten who burned your face and killed your family and friends. Everything I have is destroyed, but what about everything you have? What else do you care about?!" Faced with Tony's questioning, Nightwalker remained silent for a long time.

"Well, it doesn't matter anymore. I don't think my old bones will last much longer." Night Walker said calmly, without a trace of emotion in his tone. When he lost everything, the meaning of life also disappeared. Now he is living like a dead tree.

"How's Frank doing lately?" Tony suddenly mentioned the Punisher, which made Nightcrawler look at him with some worry. Tony knew that Frank had died in the war a few years ago.

But in the past two months, his mind has become increasingly confused, he often forgets some things in the past, and his memory has become problematic. The night walker felt his throat was a little tight, as if it was blocked by phlegm.

Nightcrawler tried to speak calmly: "Tony, Frank is dead. He has been dead for a long time. We can't find a place to bury him. We can only cremate his body and scatter his ashes into the Pacific Ocean. If we want to mourn him, we can only pray to the Pacific Ocean now."

Tony fell into deep thought. This shouldn't be the case. Why did his companions and comrades die or disappear one after another, and his brain began to become dull...

He whispered weakly, "Nightcrawler, is my brain failing? Just like Charles, you'll have to tie him up in a house made of lead. If I start to degenerate too badly, don't just end it like you did to Charles. Kill me."

The once majestic Iron Man is now just a helpless old man, repeating "Kill me". Nightcrawler stopped pushing the wheelchair, gave Tony a hug, and tried his best to comfort him: "We will not abandon any friend, never."

Tony's eyes had become blurry, and his expression was almost invisible. All he could see was his moist eyes closed weakly.

... At the other end of the sewer is the meeting point they agreed on. After completing the transaction with the Hydra forces, Nightcrawler and Tony's people will come here with the information to meet them and then leave.

The two parties in the transaction were also two elderly people, but they were relatively younger. Spider-Man, who was over 60 years old, could no longer swing in the sky of New York, because as long as he showed up, Magneto's men would kill him. Moreover, he was over 60 years old and was no longer suitable for difficult actions. The other was the only remaining member of S.H.I.E.L.D., Agent Hawkeye Barton.

But now, the name Hawkeye doesn't seem to be appropriate, and Cyclops is more suitable for him because he lost his left eye in the previous defense of New York. Due to the injection of infinite serum, Hawkeye's aging speed is slower than that of ordinary people. Now he looks only in his fifties, and he is the youngest among these people.
