American comics: From the old Uncle Wolf, he becomes omniscient and omnipotent

Chapter 23 022: A perfect plan
Before Professor X founded Xavier's Academy for the Gifted and the X-Men, mutants were in dire straits.

There are many mutant research institutes in the world. After many special organizations discovered the special group of mutants, like gold treasures discovered during the gold rush, they established special research institutes to secretly use mutants for scientific experiments.

It was not until the 80s that, under the leadership of the young Professor X, the X-Men organization was created, dedicated to safeguarding the rights and safety of mutants.

While helping mutants gradually come to the world and become known to the world, Professor Logan Howlett is one of them.

But today, decades later, a new era has come again, and with it comes another dark period for mutants. The research institute that was once destroyed by mutants has been rebuilt.

There are even official departments involved. They have invested a lot of manpower and material resources over the years. The task force responsible for capturing mutants is the best proof. The sophisticated weapons and equipment and machines to restrain mutants are also the result of their research on mutant harvesting over the years. achieved results.

"If mutants want to avoid being caught, they should never use their mutant abilities for the rest of their lives, and don't let others discover that your blood and DNA are different from others."

This was what Lorna Dane said with a sigh at the dinner table, and the reason why she embarked on the road to escape.

When she was ten years old, at a party, she accidentally awakened her mutant ability. Under the eyes of more than a dozen people, all the metal materials around her were uncontrollably attracted to her body.

From that moment on, she knew that she was a freak, and in the next few days, her hair uncontrollably turned dark green.

The eyes of the parents gradually became weird, revealing fear. The parents would always go back to the room after Lorna fell asleep. They seemed to be afraid that their daughter would lose control and kill them.

This situation lasted for several days, and the couple finally decided to send Lorna Dane away.

Because Lorna was originally a child they adopted from an orphanage, and they didn't have much affection for her. However, Lorna's story had gradually spread in the town, and the orphanage was not willing to take back the child.

So, one night, the couple drove out of the city and dropped Lorna, who had drunk sleeping pills, in the suburbs.

Lorna fled for a long time until she was brought back to the shelter in the City of Angels, which was an abandoned warehouse in the suburbs with a very poor environment.

But for Lorna, who had been wandering for a long time, it was a warm new home, and the friends and companions in the shelter were all family members.It's just that her home was destroyed not long ago, and the whereabouts of her family members are unknown. Some may have been sent to prisons in research institutions, or even died during resistance.

For Lorna, those bounty hunters and task forces were enemies. Driven by hatred, she wandered in that area for several days, often gnawing bread alone and squatting on the street corner waiting for her enemies to appear. She was not even young. Big, with a very immature face, but only hatred in his heart.

After Rojo learned about Lorna's situation, he wanted to tell the girl that you and your father are really alike, and Magneto held a grudge just like her back then.

However, he was very willing to help Lorna Dane. After having a full meal and replenishing his energy, the dark night enveloped the deep sky. After Jeryl went to the pub to get drunk, Rojo went out to find Lorna, planning to investigate first. The enemy's situation.

It was the first time he met a task force, and he didn't dare to force it. At least he couldn't just rush into someone else's headquarters and start killing.

"I investigated before and they were stationed not far ahead. It was a hotel."

Lorna was responsible for leading the way, and the two of them walked on the lively streets.

There are a lot of people in Los Angeles, the City of Angels, at night, especially now that it's only after eight o'clock. In addition, the hotel is located near the entertainment district, and there are many people of all kinds and all kinds of luxury and expensive cars coming and going.

"You haven't told me yet, what is your mutant ability? I mean, be more specific, such as how to create electricity."

Lorna asked curiously as she walked.

"Actually, my lightning energy is not unlimited. After releasing it for a period of time, I need to take a short rest. Maybe it can be restored by absorbing electric energy and lightning." Rojo did not say the real mutant ability. For him, that It is the final trump card, and for outsiders, his mutant ability is also a temptation.

Especially for some people who are studying the ability of transplanted mutants, he is equivalent to a golden treasure in the eyes of those people.

"It's pretty cool. You don't have to be afraid of thunder this way."

Lorna was a little envious and said, "I'm quite afraid of thunder. I'm always worried that lightning from the sky will fall on me."

"Is it that hotel?"

Rojo stopped, pulled Lorna into a small alley, and pointed to the brightly lit building in the distance with the name Perlas Hotel written on it.

"Yes, they live on the third floor. That floor is completely closed and not open to the public, but there seem to be a lot of people."

Lorna looked at the hotel entrance, where special vehicles were parked and many soldiers were standing guard.

"The large number of people is a problem, and it is very close to the FBI and police stations. We want to come up with a perfect plan."

Rojo frowned, he didn't want to make the matter a big deal.

There are many tourists coming in and out of this hotel. The hotel did not choose to close down after the task force checked in. Now is the peak tourist season, and many ordinary people come and go.

If we take action here, it is likely to alert the FBI and the local army. After all, mutants are originally regarded as dangerous walking weapons. If they cause trouble in crowded places, they may cause a large number of casualties.

Even if no serious casualties are caused, the seriousness of the situation will attract the attention of the officials. Making trouble in this area is no different from slapping the officials in the face on the street.

By then, not even the next day, Rojo and Lorna would be listed as severely wanted criminals that night, and bounty hunters and task forces across the country would come looking for them.

"Perfect? ​​What's that word?"

Lorna was stunned and looked at him blankly.

"It's a perfect plan."

Rojo forgot that it was a Chinese word from his previous life. He looked at the crowded hotel and an idea came to his mind, asking: "Lorna, when will the suit shop you stayed at close before?"

"Ten o'clock at night."

Lorna squatted for a long time and wrote the operating hours clearly on the sign.

"Follow me, and we'll lead them to a less crowded place before we start."

Rojo patted Lorna on the shoulder and asked her to follow him. He was thinking about how to threaten the suit shop owner later and make him call the bounty hunter.
