Chapter 56 054: Xander Rice
There was a wooden house in a deep forest. The warm light from the stove made the shadows of the people in the house elongated. Rojo leaned against the window and looked in the direction where the eerie screams were coming from.

He closed the curtains on the window and said, "Uncle Wolf, your guess is correct, it really might be a human being."

"Do you have an idea?"

Logan Howlett looked at the boy.

"I think it's Xander Rice here. The voice is very similar to X-24, one of his experimental subjects."

Rojo recognized that the voice was very similar to that of X-24. He was a little surprised. It was obvious that he underestimated Dr. Rice. It only took one day for Rice to catch up. You must know that they deliberately chose a remote section to drive.

"A test subject like Laura? No wonder his voice sounds a bit familiar."

Caliban glanced at Laura. The girl's alert expression had not changed since she entered the room.

"X-24 is even more special. I can't describe it, but when you see him, you should be able to understand my feelings."

Rojo took out two pistols from his backpack and gave one to Caliban. "Caliban, you are responsible for keeping an eye on the professor. Xander Rice is most likely here for him."

"I have shotgun and three bullets left."

Caliban said this, but still stuffed the pistol into his waist, so as to make himself feel a little safer.

"What shall we do now?"

Lorna asked, polishing her dagger.

Logan Howlett took out the pistol from his waist, clicked the gun, and said, "Of course, to kill these damn beasts."

"Looking at it now, this is the only feasible way, and our plan can be implemented ahead of schedule."

Rojo knew that now was the best time to get rid of Xander Rice. He was in a remote location and couldn't contact reinforcements. As long as he got rid of these guys, he could temporarily cut off the tail that had been following behind him. Moreover, Uncle Wolf's injury It has also recovered, and with Lorna, it is not too difficult to deal with the mercenary group.

"They are here."

In the wheelchair, the professor, who had been silent all this time because of his illness, raised his hand and pointed at the closed curtain.

hum.
A strong white light shines on the window, and the black curtains cannot block the strong light. The wooden house seems to be shrouded in white light, and the cracked gaps in the simple wooden wall also reveal white light, like magnified star points, which makes people feel My eyes hurt a little.

"Be careful, everyone squat down."

Rojo quickly pulled Lorna next to him to squat down. Laura on the other side saw this and pulled a blanket to cover the professor's head.

"Fuck, I can't keep my eyes open, tell those damn guys to turn off the lights!"

Caliban was not so relaxed. He was very sensitive to ultraviolet rays. Living in darkness for a long time in the wilderness made his eyes more sensitive to strong light. The strong light shining in from the outside made him cover his eyes in pain for a while. He shivered and huddled in the corner, trying to avoid the bright light as much as possible.

"Calm down, I guessed it right, it's Xander Rice's person."

Rojo signaled him to calm down, then rubbed his eyes and opened the curtains to check. What came into view were several lights and a group of mercenaries surrounding them from the surrounding trees. They were fully armed, and the infrared rays under the gun barrels were like Raindrops fell on the wall of the wooden house.

Those infrared raindrops penetrated through the simple walls of the wooden house and shone on Rojo and the others.

"There are a lot of them."

Logan Howlett clenched the gun, touched the red dot on his chest, and came up empty, "What should we do now?"

"Lorna, disarm them."

Rojo looked at Lorna next to him.

But she frowned and shook her head. She waved her hand that was glowing green a few more times. Finally, she was discouraged and put her hand down. "I can't feel the presence of metal. The gun in their hand is made of something special." .”

"It seems that Rice is aware of your existence." Rojo did not feel any response from the metal from this group of mercenaries. It seems that Dr. Rice learned that someone could manipulate magnetism in the abandoned factory.

In this operation, the entire mercenary group was fully armed and wearing special combat uniforms. No skin on the whole body was exposed. The combat uniforms looked very hard. The weapons and ammunition were also made of special materials and were not mixed with any metal substances. They did not even We drove and walked to surround the wooden house, but there was no sign of X-24 outside.

Lai is obviously more cautious than Donald Pierce and does not want the tragedy in the factory to happen again.

"Logan Howlett!"

"Charles Xavier!"

"Caliban!"

At this time, outside the wooden house, a loudspeaker with a slight electric sound amplified a voice from the rear of the mercenary group.

"I know you are in the cabin, don't try to struggle, come out on your own, so that the three children will not be injured with you. I don't want to hurt the children, and I think you don't want this either."

Xander Rice, whose hairline reached to the top of his head, stared at the wooden house.

Whoosh!

What responded to him was a dagger shooting out of the window of the wooden house, entwined with a faint green light, like a meteor streaking through the air.

"Doctor, be careful!"

The men around him reacted quickly, raised their shields, and stopped in front of Xander Rice. The dagger pierced the hard shield and was stuck inside, trembling violently.

"Logan, I'll give you ten seconds to think."

Xander Rice had a sullen face.

He turned around and told the men around him, "I have no patience anymore. After the countdown, kill Logan and Charles and try not to hurt the other four."

After receiving the order, the mercenary group immediately locked the positions of several people in the wooden house through thermal imaging, and accurately aimed at Logan and Charles. There were many gaps in the simple wall, and dense infrared light spots penetrated the wall. The gap fell on several people in the house.

"ten!"

"Nine!"

Caliban in the corner of the wooden house huddled in fear. Hearing the countdown, he asked in fear: "What should we do now? The guys outside have dozens of guns and can beat us into sieves!"

"Shut up, Caliban!"

Logan Howlett tightened the gun in his hand and glanced at the red dots falling on his chest. In the past, he would have rushed out, but now he can't.
"Would you like me to come?"

Suddenly, the professor, who was slumped in a wheelchair, interrupted him, "I'll control them and leave the rest to you."

Next to him, Luo Huo was stunned for a moment, a little in disbelief, "Professor?"

"No, absolutely not, it would hurt you too much."

Logan was the first to shake his head.

"Believe me."

The professor's eyes gradually focused and became determined, "I will always do something for you."
