Chapter 317 16 What? A blind man driving? Twelve points deducted! Driving license revoked!


Chapter 317 16. What? A blind man driving? Twelve points deducted! Driving license revoked!

The Houtley family farm was quiet. The afternoon wind blew loudly in the land that was severely desertified due to the nuclear explosion. This movement covered up the screams of the Hulk Gang trio who were being "taught" outside the door.

Inside the house, Mason is talking to the family.

The hostess of the Houtley family was obviously not as taciturn as her husband. Faced with these outsiders who saved her family, despite the lack of supplies, she still tried her best to entertain them to express her gratitude.

Harley had made friends with the Houtley children and was teaching them how to feed her two circus dogs.

"Mrs. Hawtley, don't be busy, we are just passing by and want to ask for directions."

Mason glanced at the old Wolverine who was busy in the kitchen. He knew that the guy didn't want to talk to strangers like him, so he focused on the lady in front of him who didn't look very healthy.

He looked at the glass of suspicious-colored water in front of him, pushed it away calmly, and asked in a gentle tone:

"Is the entire area around here the territory of the Hulk Gang?"

"Yes, they control Southern California. They occupy nearby clean water sources and make us pay rent every month to use them.

But their existence is not a bad thing. Going north is occupied by more ferocious ghost riding gangs and monsters. Although the Hulks are savage, they will drive them away.

It's hard to live here, but at least you won't die violently. ”

Mrs. Hawtley sighed.

She sat down next to Mason tiredly, feeling that this young man was very polite, which was rare in this day and age.

The suffering of life has caused the once beautiful lady to have gray hair. However, when Mason noticed the abnormal gray on her face, he realized that the ubiquitous radiation in this land had also harmed her health.

"You look like you need treatment, and I happen to be a pharmacist."

Mason revealed his identity as a doctor and offered to take a look at Mrs. Houtley's body. The lady didn't think much about it. She just felt that Mason's image in her heart was better. She gladly accepted the captain's consultation and received several more prescriptions. Bottle of potion.

After taking it, he felt drowsy and went back to the bedroom to rest. It was only then that the old Wolverine, who had not been seen before, walked out of the kitchen with anger.

"Get out of my house!"

He yelled at Mason very rudely:

"Take your freaks and leave!"

"Dad! He is helping us. He also helps mom with medical treatment."

The teenage boy may be in the rebellious stage, and he is dissatisfied with the sudden outburst of his always useless father. He jumps up to argue with his father.

But Logan Sr. ignored his inexperienced son.

He reached out and grabbed Mason's left hand and lifted it up, revealing the golden apple on the penguin umbrella that was still glowing. He said in a sarcastic tone:

"Mind control, huh? What's going on with me! You bastards!"

"This is just to let Mrs. Houtley sleep better. Her body is almost overwhelmed by various diseases. Logan, your wife is not an 'immortal' like you, nor is she as tough as you. A good body that can withstand a nuclear explosion will be fine.”

Mason made no excuses.

He looked up and down at the decadent old wolf in front of him and said:

"The medicine I just gave her will make her feel much better in the next six months, but I suggest you take your family away from this nuclear blast desert immediately, at least to a place where you won't get radiation sickness.


The two children are here too. I have to help you and you should take a look. This disease cannot be delayed. ”

He turned around and waved to Lao Lang's son and daughter.

The two children are not fools either.

After watching his father dismantle Mason's trick, the older boy grabbed the shotgun he had at hand.

But at this moment, a piercing scream from the son of Hulk came from outside the house, making the boy shake his body. He suddenly realized that facing this group of people, an old gun with a smooth rifling seemed to have some... uh, a slight disadvantage?

"Mr. K lets you go, cuties."

Harley pushed behind them and said sharply:

"My little sweetheart is the most conscientious person in Gotham City. He will not do bad things. But Mr. K, I just showed the two little cuties and they are not affected by radiation sickness.
< br>

These two children are incredibly healthy, just like superhuman beings! ”

"Mutants?"

Mason looked at the silent but clenched old wolf in surprise.

In order not to arouse the hostility of the weird old Wolverine in front of him, he took out his Weapon X project identity card from his pocket and put it on the table.

He took a step back and said to the old wolf:

"I am also a mutant, but my situation is special. This thing can prove my identity. Logan, I am not here to cause trouble, and I was actually very happy to meet you when I came here.

Believe it or not, you were one of the two people I admired most as a child. ”

When he heard the word "mutant", Old Logan's eyes jumped, and then he looked at the two cards on the table. As one of the former leaders of the X-Men, he could completely identify the authenticity of this thing. Fake.

And when he saw the Weapon X project card, the shock on Logan's face was undeniable.

He picked up the card and put it in front of his eyes and used a special technique to check certain details. After a few seconds, he looked at Mason and said:

"I thought you were all dead. That night, I received a signal that the secret project was attacked by Hydra, but you disappeared! You disappeared seventeen years ago, and the transfer of outsiders took away everything People.

They say you'll never come back.

but why?

If you've left this hell, why are you coming back here? ”

"It seems like you are finally willing to talk to me, that's great."

Mason pulled out his chair and winked at Harley.

Robin immediately grabbed the two children and walked out of the door. The children were unwilling to leave, but Harley dragged them away by their collars one by one, preventing them from disturbing the conversation between Mr. K and the old wolf.

"As you say, Logan, no other outsiders have entered here in the past seventeen years?"

Mason asked.

Logan, holding the card in his hand, confirmed Mason's identity. He was no longer as repulsive as before, but he was not very enthusiastic either.

Facing Mason's inquiry, he nodded hesitantly and said:

"I have been living here these years and have not had contact with the outside world for a long time. However, there is indeed no news about outsiders in this world. After all, the great transfer seventeen years ago took away almost everything of value. .

Only a bunch of sinners are left to rot to death in this hell. ”

"What about you?"

Mason asked:

"Why do you stay here? I asked Liana and Anna, and they both thought you were dead. Anna also asked me to investigate the tragedy that happened at Xavier College in 17 years.

She said that an unknown murderer killed all the X-Men in the academy that night, leaving them with no chance to participate in the fight against nuclear war.

It even indirectly led to the defeat of the Avengers who needed support.

Do you know who did that? ”

"I I don't know."

The old wolf lowered his head, moved his lips, and said dryly:

"I missed those."

"Yeah, I guess you were definitely not there that night."

Mason sighed and said:

"If you were really here, with your character and vigilance, you would definitely not allow those murderers to kill your companions so cruelly"

"Stop talking!"

The old wolf suddenly roared and interrupted Mason's words. Under the surprised gaze of the captain, the old wolf panted and waved his hands as if he had lost all his strength. He said hoarsely:

"That's not something that makes people feel happy. Stop talking about it. Talk about you."

He picked up the card and bent it into a very special arc. At this arc, Mason could see a line of hidden text appearing on the card.

The old wolf said to him:

"They gave you a code name in the experiment, and lo and behold, they called you 'Maia.'"

"The god of wind and rain, one of the twelve main gods of Olympus?"

Mason immediately thought of the special situation where it would rain every time he fought, and he said with a strange expression:

"It's okay, it barely fits, but I'm more used to you calling me Mason, Mason Cooper."

"Okay, Mason."

The old wolf sat opposite Mason again.

He didn't quite meet Mason's eyes, but he accepted the cigarette offered by Mason. After lighting it, the languid former X-Men said to him:

"I can probably guess what you are going to do when you come back. I did participate in the Weapon X project. It was re-created based on my evil project back then.

Although it inherited the Weapon X name, it was not used for nefarious purposes.

This plan is promoted by the Illuminati and is one of a series of preventive plans established after Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch and the Inhuman Prophet Ulysses successively predicted the ‘end of the world’.

Its purpose is to cultivate omega-level mutants through artificial intervention to strengthen our strength to deal with unknown risks. ”

"Can this really be done?"

When he heard "Omega-level mutants", Mason sat up straight and asked:

"Has the world's technology advanced to that point?"

"No, of course it can't be done, but plans are like this. If you want to defraud the Stark Group of enough funds, you must always think in a good direction and exaggerate it by a few hundred million."
< br>

The old wolf shrugged and curled his lips and said:

"It turns out that the restarted Weapon

So the plan eventually turned into awakening as many mutants as possible before the end to strengthen the population.

However, your nameplate number is relatively high, which means that you are an experimental subject in the first three batches, Mason, and you have rarely reached the third stage.

This means that if we can really artificially create omega-level mutants, then you are definitely one of the samples closest to the target.

But unfortunately, this thing is just like opening a blind box.

Before you finally complete the third stage and unlock your abilities, no one knows whether what you have gained is a great power that can control the world, or whether it is just a dispensable trick. ”

"Well, I knew it wouldn't be that easy."

Mason sighed, okay, I was so excited just now.

The question is who would be put in his position? Who wouldn't be excited to learn that he might become an Omega-level mutant? That is basically equivalent to reaching the sky in one step.

Superhero or Wonder Woman, I will bury you with a wave of my hand.

"You must go to the base of the Weapon X project."

Old Wolf returned the card in his hand to Mason, he blew out a smoke ring and said:

"It has been closed since the nuclear war. With the current fault situation in the technological water section, no one should be able to open it. You must go there to complete the last stage of ability awakening.

That place is not far from the old site of Xavier College. I can draw you a map. ”

"No need, Anna gave me the complete map."

Mason waved his hand, looked at Old Wolf and said:

"But the situation is really bad right now. This new apocalyptic world seems a bit too wild, so if you can, I hope you can"

"No!"

Before he could finish speaking, the old wolf rejected him.

"I'm not leaving here again."

Logan threw the cigarette butt at his feet, stamped it out and said:

"Wolverine is dead, Mason. He died that night seventeen years ago when my wife pulled me back from the railroad tracks. I am no longer the man you idolized as a child.


I'm too old.

I'm too weak. I don't even have the courage to fight in the face of the Hulks' provocation. Although this disappoints you, I think you may have to go alone. ”

Having said this, Old Wolf glanced at Mason and said:

"But you have those three powerful bodyguards, and you can probably run rampant in this wasteland, so you don't need me, a bad old man, to worry about your safety."

This rejection was firm.

There was something in his eyes that made even Mason feel heavy. It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul, so the old Logan in front of him was basically equivalent to closing the window and locking the door, refusing everyone to enter his soul.

Mason, who was familiar with Logan's character, knew that this matter was out of the question, but he still asked curiously before getting up and leaving:

"Why don't you ask me how those compatriots who left this world seventeen years ago are doing? You should not be such a cold person."

"No need to ask."

Old Logan, who seemed to have no trace of wolfishness anymore, waved his hands and said:

"It's definitely better than this hell.

Mason, you see, I really only plan to die in this place. I am not interested in anything outside. I also thank you for your treatment of my wife and your terror of my children.

If you can, please don't disturb us, okay? ”

"What about the Hulk Gang?"

Mason said:

"Do you need me to do a small favor for the old timer and get rid of them?"

"If you kill them, others will come. As I said just now, this is hell, Mason. Those who stay here will suffer and rot to death.

We all deserve this. ”

The old wolf bent down.

The shadow cast in the dim light looked like a broken spine, he said:

"I will find a way to solve this problem. Let's kill those three guys. It's troublesome to stay. Banner and I have some friendship, so I'll be done with it if I go see him."

"Okay, if you insist on that, at least I should help you pay the rent you signed."

Mason reached out and took out a small bag from his luggage and placed it next to Logan's hand. Inside were several golden precious metals. He said:

"There should be a black market here to exchange these things, right?"

"Well, I know what to do."

Logan did not refuse the gift.

Judging from the dilapidation of his house, he really needed the money. After getting up and sending Mason out of the house, he whispered to his compatriots:

"On this land, kindness is the most useless thing. Don't hesitate when you encounter problems in the past. Violence is the only language left in this world.

Finally, don't go near New Babylon. ”

After speaking, Logan patted Mason on the shoulder, took his children into the house and closed the door.

Harley walked up to Mason, chewed bubble gum, rolled her eyes and whispered:

"This old man hides a lot of things he doesn't want to say. He's afraid to talk to you, sweetheart. He's afraid of something in you. He even avoids his eyes when he looks at you."

"Yes, he hid a lot of information."

Mason nodded thoughtfully and said:

"You have to find a way to ask."

"Then shall we leave now?"

The bat girl leaned against the pillar of the farm and said:

"Go to a nearby city to inquire about news, okay?"

"You go first, led by Barbara, I will stay here alone."

Mason took out the invisibility cloak he had not used for a long time and put it on his body, and said to his team members:

"I finally met my childhood idol. It would be a pity to leave without a few autographs."

"Captain!"

Just when he decided to split his troops into two groups, Jaime Reyes, the blue beetle who had been wandering around at high altitude to familiarize himself with the newly adjusted Scarab combat system, fell from the sky.

He put away his mechanical insect wings and pointed at the dusk desert in the distance, and reported to Mason:

"A strange car came over there! The destination is this farm, but the driver seems to be a blind man" (End of Chapter)
