Chapter 98 095: Deception and Lies ([-])

The following week, due to SHIELD's supervision of the underground base, the base was unable to perform tasks on its own. Therefore, Rojo did not go out for a week, and even if he went out for a walk, he would be followed by agents.

He could only occasionally take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of the agents to practice his newly acquired ability, the distortion of space, which was Clarice's ability.

By twisting and folding space, the distance between two points is shortened, achieving the effect of opening a portal. However, this ability is not as easy to control as imagined.

Rojo tried several times, but failed to accurately find the location he wanted to teleport to. When using this ability, it is like a wild horse running wild, and it is extremely easy to lose control, especially when the teleportation gate is opened clearly. scene, so it’s easy to put yourself in danger.

In addition, the portal has a certain degree of gravity. If this degree is not controlled well, the gravity of the portal will be out of control and people will be sucked into it.

It's no wonder that Clarice didn't dare to try or use it easily. She must have often made mistakes in the past and was transported to distant places alone. For a child, this ability undoubtedly frightened her.

Fortunately, she has now mastered the precise transmission of short distances and has taken the first step. Obviously, her height is definitely not limited to this.

After a week of practice and frequent observation by Clarice, Rojo gradually mastered the key to short-distance teleportation. As long as he tried repeatedly, he would soon make new progress.

In addition, he did not forget Tony's words and paid attention to everyone in the underground base, focusing on Eugene, as well as various situations in the underground base.

As before, he found no suspicious persons or clues.

As for the rules that require registration when eating and sleeping, he also looked at the registration book, which recorded everyone's physical condition, but it was not enough to prove that there was something wrong with it. On the contrary, registration seemed to be a very responsible thing. matter.

Most people in the base have more or less physical and ability problems. Recording everyone's physical condition can better help them get out of trouble.

As for whether the pink mist released by Sonia could be collected, Rojo was not sure. It could not be collected with his methods anyway. He also asked Tony and Banner to observe it, and also asked them to secretly take Sonia's blood sample. Go check it out. The current result is that after the gas is released, it will remain in the air for a certain period of time and then dissipate without any residue. However, sometimes what you see may not be the truth, so this problem cannot be solved yet. Conclusion.

Finally, there is Eugene Phil.

The only abnormal thing about Eugene is that he is in a depressed mood, which is very abnormal. He would never be like this in front of anyone in the past, especially in the underground base, because he knows that every member of the underground base will be affected by him, and he wants to establish A good image.

Things changed this week. After Eugene returned from Canada, his mood was a bit off. This also caused other members of the underground base to fall into a depression, and the entire base fell into a depressive atmosphere.

Obviously everyone is worried, just like what Logan and Professor Charles said, they are now very worried and scared. The source of these emotions does not come from Eugene, but from SHIELD and the Avengers above. This emotion It is constantly accumulating, and sooner or later it will explode completely.

Sure enough, a week later, in the damp and dark underground base in the early morning, on the simple bed in the tent, Rojo was awakened by a quarrel outside.

He quickly got up and walked outside. There was a quarrel at the entrance of the base. A large group of people gathered there, including Logan, but he was blocked by the crowd.

"You are not satisfied with destroying everything. Now you are still thinking of hiding this thing in the base!"

"calm down!"

"Go away, take these things and get out of here!"

"Damn it, you guys! Everyone, please step back, otherwise you will be shot to death according to law!"

"Coward! If you dare, shoot!"

Rojo felt everyone's emotions fluctuate strongly, and saw Agent Hill and two SHIELD special agents, guns raised, being pushed.

He was a little confused and asked: "Uncle Wolf, what happened?"

"I just came too."

Logan shook his head. When the base members behind him heard what the two said, they immediately turned back angrily and said:

"SHIELD hid bugs inside the food boxes they gave us. These damn guys want to spy on everything about us!"

"Just blood tests and registration are no longer enough to satisfy them. They are doing this to completely lock me up!"

"Raised in captivity? Do you think we are cattle, sheep and pigs?!"

Several people in a row turned back to respond, their eyes full of anger and anger. Being in captivity sounds like it is very suitable for the current situation. They can accept living in hiding every day, but they absolutely cannot accept living in captivity.

This is like cattle, sheep and pigs kept in captivity. When they are needed, their milk will be milked, their wool will be sheared, and their pork will be cut off.

No one thought S.H.I.E.L.D. would be kind.

In this intense mood, several people had already rushed forward, knocked over one of the task force members, and began to vent their anger with fists.

"okay!"

When Rojo sees this, if he doesn't stop it, it will not be a good thing for them if someone is killed. This will only give SHIELD more excuses.

He and Uncle Wolf pushed away the crowd together, strode to the middle of the two parties, and pulled away the people who were fighting, "Everyone, stop!"

This sentence, with telepathic fluctuations, directly shocked everyone, and the originally noisy crowd fell silent instantly.

"thanks."

Seeing that the chaotic scene was under control, Hill put away his gun and breathed a deep sigh of relief.

"Take this guy away."

Rojo pointed to the task force on the ground and saw the broken listening device on the ground. He glared at Hill and said, "There is also this thing, take it with you."

"Ah."

Hill knew that he was wrong and waved his hands to deal with it.

"What I'm talking about is, how much have you hidden in the underground base? Clean them all up."

Rojo walked up to Hill and whispered to his face, "If someone discovers these bugs next time, the situation will not be so easy to control. They are already dissatisfied with you."

"I'll have someone remove it."

Hill picked up the broken bug, frowned and said, "But I didn't arrange this bug."

Luo Huo paused and said, "They don't care about that much."

"what happened?"

At this time, Eugene arrived belatedly. He had left the base early in the morning and was walking back from the passage. He saw everyone gathered around the door and lying on the ground. He asked, "Can anyone Tell me, what just happened?"

Rojo stepped forward and briefly explained the situation to him.

Eugene looked at Hill with a sullen face and said, "Agent Hill, our previous agreement did not mention placing a bug. This is a very impolite behavior."

Agent Hill's cold face didn't have much expression, but her eyes showed that she knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't argue too much, and she led people to remove all the eavesdropping equipment and left.

Eugene looked at the backs of several people leaving and said, "I never expected these agents to abide by the rules in the first place."

"Agent's damn professionalism."

Logan looked at the ground and saw some remains of the bug. He stepped up and crushed it into powder. "Eugene, you can't do this anymore!"

Someone in the crowd shouted at Eugene.

"We don't have to stay in New York. We can go to other places and be monitored by SHIELD here. It's like living in a sheepfold!"

"That's right, if SHIELD won't let us go, then let them have a taste of my ice!"

The excited mutants now have their inner thoughts released. The bug just now undoubtedly made them all angry.

Almost no one wants to stay here now.

"Everyone, calm down, SHIELD means us no harm."

Eugene stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, "They are helping my base, helping us."

"No, they're taking advantage of us!"

"Eugene, they just see the value of mutants and want to squeeze us dry. If they really cared about the survival of mutants, they should have done this more than ten years ago!"

"They just want to keep mutants as monsters in order to squeeze out our value!"

Rojo could feel everyone's anger, and he fell into deep thought. He really didn't like SHIELD, and it was impossible to live under SHIELD in the future, but at this stage SHIELD was a good choice.

In fact, rather than saying that SHIELD is a good choice, it is better to say that the Avengers are. The existence of the Avengers will prompt SHIELD to help mutants turn around.

Just like Tony Stark's plan, the first step in allowing mutants to be recognized again is to let people re-recognize the good sides of mutants, and SHIELD can help a lot in this regard.

Suddenly, someone shouted, "If you don't let us go, kill SHIELD!"

Logan, who had been silent, saw that Eugene was still silent, and finally couldn't help but speak, "Eugene, say something, you understand the current situation, the existence of SHIELD is not a bad thing, if this continues, I'm worried that someone It will get out of control, and if they go out and hurt ordinary people outside, the situation will only get worse."

"Okay, calm down!"

Eugene raised his hand, and a burst of dazzling white light was released, covering everyone's head. For an instant, everyone froze, as if they were frozen.

He immediately put away his hand and said: "I know your dissatisfaction, and I understand it, but we can't leave now, but please give me some time, and I will give everyone a satisfactory result, just like I once took you Getting out of those seemingly impossible situations.”

"Now, you just need to stay in the base. Soon, when the time comes, I will take you out of here. No one can stop us then!"

After saying that, Eugene walked through the crowd and went directly back to the tent. The crowd that had been frozen was finally liberated.

"Eugene, wait a minute."

Logan pulled Rojo and caught up with Eugene into the tent. He asked: "What do you mean? Why do you want to leave this place? You understand that we can't leave in a short time."

"I have my own plans."

Eugene interrupted Logan and turned to look at the two of them, "I am the leader of the base. You should act according to my plan and don't agree with outsiders."

As he said that, he stared at Rojo again and said: "Especially you Rojo, I have heard it many times that mutants and humans are the same race. You are not the most special one. You are not now and you will not be in the future." So stop thinking about the peaceful coexistence of the two races, it has never happened before, and it will never happen in the future!"

"There's something a little off about Eugene."

In Rojo's tent, Logan sat on a chair, drinking the remaining glass of wine.

He looked at the other three people, Rojo, Caliban, and the professor, and said, "The words he said in front of everyone sounded like he was going to kill SHIELD agents and fight all the way out of New York. He was crazy. This will only cause more people to die and make people outside more afraid of mutants."

Caliban didn't think so. "He might just be motivating everyone and wouldn't really do it. After all, he has done a lot of things in the past year and helped the base escape from various dangers."

"You saw it with your own eyes?"

Logan asked with a sneer.

"Hey, you don't have to talk to me like that. Even if I didn't see it, people in the base don't lie."

Caliban was dissatisfied, "Everyone chooses to believe Eugene. This is the fact."

"Are you with us, or with Eugene and Caliban? We are just staying temporarily and will leave in the future. You'd better not get too used to this place!"

Logan Howlett had a sullen face and patted Caliban's shoulder hard. Caliban wanted to pat him back, but was frightened by a look and retracted his hand.

"Not everyone trusts him. Clarice told me that Eugene is not as reliable as he seems."

Rojo lay helplessly on the bed and told what he had heard from Clarice before.

"Is that Lorna's friend?"

Professor Charles thought for a while and said: "She left a deep impression on me. She was always depressed, and the way she looked at Eugene was indeed different from most people. She rarely even attended Eugene's meetings."

The professor paused and said, "But, I have read Eugene's mind, and he seems to have no problem."

"Professor, it may be that your abilities have not fully recovered, and he used some means to block it."

Rogan said.

The professor's current strength is far from his peak, so this situation is very likely to happen.

Caliban touched his aching shoulder and said calmly: "If he really has a problem, you can just wait until he reveals his flaws. Besides, even if you question it, others still trust Eugene. Do you want to fight with other people?" What are you doing, don’t forget that this is Eugene’s underground base.”

"His base, we are just members."

Logan snorted softly and poured the drink into his mouth.

Suddenly, Luo Huo sat up from the bed suddenly. He was so frightened that he choked and coughed, "Cough, cough, cough, kid, what's wrong with you?"

Rojo smiled and patted Caliban on the shoulder and said, "Caliban, you have a good idea. If he reveals his flaws and puts the truth in front of us, then the matter will be much easier to solve."

"Don't touch my shoulder!"

Caliban covered his shoulders and asked, "Do you have an idea?"

"I think Rojo has the whole plan figured out."

Charles saw the light in the boy's eyes and smiled.

"The professor understands me, and I have already thought of a plan."

Rojo put on his coat and said, "Go to Tony and Steve first and tell them it's time to catch the mole."
