Following the information provided by Solomon, Kai wound his way through the sewers and came to an iron gate. Behind that is the secret base of the Hellfire Club... Calling it a secret base actually exalts this poor place. This place is more like a transit station. The Hellfire Club will put some important things here first and then wait for transfer.
It is also because of this that the Hellfire Club is so generous in planning to expose this place.
Kai knocked on the iron door three times in succession according to the code: three short and one long. After a while, a small window opened on the iron door.
"Why are you here now? We are all waiting..." The person inside just put his eyes on the small window and saw a gun pointed at him! "Fake..."
boom!
The unlucky guy was shot directly in the head. The sound of gunfire immediately attracted the attention of other people in the base. Some of them picked up weapons, and some of them had physical changes, such as their bodies suddenly became larger, or fire and lightning appeared. Anyway, each has its own characteristics, like It's like a group of demons dancing wildly.
There are about ten mutants gathered in this transfer station in Chicago, only four of them are permanent residents, and the others are some minions. These minions are people on the fringes of society. They don't care about the difference between mutants and humans. Work for whomever you pay. Hellfire likes to recruit some of these people on the edge of the city, because no one cares about these people even if they disappear or die. Simply the best cannon fodder.
These people did not rush to open the iron door. Instead, they all looked at each other and didn't know what to do. Their boss is Solomon, but now Solomon is not here, and the other two most powerful mutants are not here either, leaving the group without a leader.
The situation became a bit awkward. Some people wanted to do something, but found that the people around them were not moving, so they did not dare to do anything.
A group of people look at each other, but no one takes the lead. But fortunately, this embarrassment soon ended.
bump!
There was an explosion, and the entire large iron door was blown away. Before anyone else could react, a series of huge gunshots rang out, and people kept falling. Each of those bullets was so powerful that anyone who was hit felt as if they had been hit face-to-face by a sniper rifle, with a big bloody hole appearing in their bodies.
Soon the gunfire stopped, and the sound of footsteps came along with the smoke. Those who survived were trembling and hiding in the corner, not daring to show their heads at all, because they felt the arrival of death!
Kai walked into this so-called base. It was a long corridor. The ground was full of water and the air was unusually turbid.
bump!
Whenever Kai passes an enemy, he will fire a bullet. From Solomon's mouth, Kai knew that there was no good person here, and they had no qualifications to live. They kidnap, kill, rob, and other disgusting things, and most of them enjoy it. Such people will only cause more tragedies while they are alive. It is better to let them disappear.
When Kai walked into the deepest part of this so-called base, there were no living people here... at least no living enemies.
Only three children were left in the innermost cells.
"Sammy! Sammy! Are you there?"
Kai knocked on the door of one of the cells and shouted nonsense.
"Sammy's here! Sammy's here!"
At this time, an anxious voice came out, and Kai immediately rushed to the cell where the sound came from. Through the observation port of the cell door, Kai saw a fat Mexican holding the doorknob with his round eyes tightly pressed against the observation port.
"Who are you?"
"Go and see Sammy first! Sammy stopped talking just now! He is sick! Sir! Help him!"
The little fat man didn't care about himself, but kept begging Kai to save Sammy.
Kai knew that Sammy was sick. Now after hearing what the little fat man said, he immediately came to Sammy's cell according to the little fat man's guidance!
"Sammy! Sammy! Are you there? Kain Marco asked me to save you! Just say something!"
Kai shouted at the top of his lungs. But there was no response from inside the cell.
"Sammy, step back, I'll break the door and save you!" Kai couldn't care less. He took a deep breath and slammed into the iron door of the cell.
boom!
After the cell door was knocked open, Kai saw the situation inside the cell. A white boy with webbed hands and feet, gills on his neck and face, and some blue scales on his body was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and blood was still coming from his nose.
"Sammy? Sammy!" Kai shook the child and found that the child had lost consciousness, his breathing was extremely irregular, and his vital signs were getting weaker and weaker. Kai quickly blessed the child with a few simple healing spells to alleviate the child's terrible condition.
The spell worked, but the child still didn't wake up.
There is no way, this child must receive professional treatment. Although Kai knows some healing spells, those things are of no use to the child's current condition.
Now Kai could only hold the baby and get the other two children out.
First there is the little fat guy, his name is Russell, he is an illegal immigrant from Mexico. His father and mother were shot to death by a rival gang because of their involvement in gangs. Then he was adopted by his uncle. His uncle was a good man and was very kind to Russell, but he was unlucky. During a gang conflict, his uncle was accidentally beaten to death. It was also because of that accident that Russell awakened his superpowers.
From that moment on, Russell began his wandering journey, and was later captured and kidnapped by the Hellfire Club.
This guy has very good abilities and can control flames. It's just that his ability is still too weak now, so he can't escape by himself.
The last child is named Collins. His ability is mind control. His mental power is extremely powerful and he is a very dangerous mutant. But his abilities went wild, which caused him to suffer from progeria. Although he was only five years old, he had the body of a fifty-year-old. And it has been in a state of unconsciousness for a long time. Once it wakes up, it cannot control its own power and cause all kinds of damage.
Therefore, the child was always injected with sedatives and lay quietly in the life-sustaining cabin.
But just as Kai opened the door, he woke up.
When Russell saw his 'inmate' for the first time, he just wanted to go up and help the child out of the life-sustaining cabin. But Kai grabbed him.
"Who are you?!!!"
Kai raised the magic gun in his hand and pointed it at the 'little old man' with withered skin and expressionless face.
"You...how could you...like this..."
The little fat man was still very loyal. Although he was not familiar with the child, he still instinctively wanted to protect the child.
"Count three! Get away from that kid, or I'll shoot him!"
Kai didn't waver at all, and put Sammy into the little fat man's arms, with the gun loaded and ready to fire at any time. He had no time to play games with what was inside this kid; once the three count was up, he would definitely shoot.
"one!"
In this world, no one is more sensitive to the breath of the soul than Kai. This is how his golden finger depends on it. There are two souls in this child, and the other soul is obviously an outsider and has an absolute advantage. In other words, it is another soul that controls this child now! A soul that does not belong to this body!
"two!"
Kai loaded the gun directly.
Simon, who was possessed by the child, could clearly feel Kai's determination. Although he didn't understand how Kai found him, he didn't dare to bet that Kai would be soft-hearted because of this child. You can't think of a murderous person. Guys will burst into flames.
But Simon still didn't panic. If he failed, he would fail. Anyway, he didn't think anyone in this world could hurt him.
So he decisively left Collins' body and wanted to escape and return to his own body.
But the moment he left Collins, Kai suddenly walked to Collins' side, and suddenly grabbed a hand into the void beside Collins. The little fat man was a little confused. Could this savior be a psycho?
What punch to the air?
But in the next scene, the little fat man was immediately shocked. Kai's empty palm suddenly burst into flames, and then a blood-curdling scream came.
In this dark and humid underground space, such a scream suddenly came. What's more important is that the little fat man didn't know where the sound came from!
Simon never expected that someone in the world could really catch him in a pure spiritual body, let alone that someone could kill him directly in this situation! ! !
Simon died unjustly!
"Just...what was that..." The little fat man felt that the air around him had dropped several degrees, so he quickly hugged his good friend Sammy and leaned closer to Kai.
Kai thought about it and felt that it was a bit difficult to explain, so he simply said nonsense: "Ghost!"
"Ah!" The little fat man was startled. For the first time, he knew that there were ghosts in the world. "There are really ghosts in this world?!!!"
"You're a little fat guy who can play with fire, why can't there be ghosts?" Kai was curious, could this little fat guy control flames himself, but why didn't he believe that there were ghosts in this world?
"I..." The little fat man just wanted to say that ghosts are unscientific, but he thought again that it seemed that he was not very scientific either.
"Okay, let's go quickly!"
With that said, Kai used his newly acquired clone ability to turn himself into two. His real body picked up the premature Collins, while his clone carried Sammy and led the little fat man outside.
The little fat man's eyes were wide open, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
…
Half an hour later, people from SHIELD finally arrived, but what awaited them was a large-scale collapsed sewer and Kai covered in injuries. When SHIELD agents found him, he was hiding with a child in his arms. A dark corner.
Agent Phil, who was led by SHIELD, sighed inwardly when he saw Kai like this. I know this mission was a complete failure.
"In the end what happened?"
After Kai handed the child to the agent who came up, he said a little dejectedly: "Let that guy run away. We originally chased them to their base, but there were too many of them. I originally planned to hold them back and wait for your support. But... before they escaped, they blew up their secret base, and I only snatched the child back from inside."
All traces of the battle along the way were erased by Kai, and those corpses were thrown into the King's Treasure House by Kai, preparing to find a place where no one was around to destroy the corpses when he had time. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to explain how he could kill so many mutants by himself.
Phil looked at the traces of the explosion and landslide. Although he was a little doubtful, he patted Kai's shoulder to express comfort.
Kay is so positive. Can you imagine that a policeman from a remote town would dare to charge in Chicago with a hail of bullets? What is he for? Is it really just to feel a sense of injustice? What does he want to do? To get transferred to Chicago? Or... want to attract the attention of their SHIELD?
So what is he planning? Want to join S.H.I.E.L.D.? Why did you join SHIELD?
Being suspicious is a great trait to have as an agent.
But Kai never thought that in just a moment, so many doubts had flashed through Phil's mind.
"This kid... I don't know what's going on, but Hellfire doesn't seem to care about him. And his condition is very bad. I think you need to find a doctor for him quickly."
That child was none other than Collins, and Kai didn't intend to take the child away with him. But after careful consideration, Kai gave up.
This child's situation is very special. If Kai takes him away, it will kill the child! Although the child may have great abilities, his physical problems are more difficult to deal with than his abilities. His body has aged significantly. If his superpower hadn't been suppressing his aging to some extent, he would have been there long ago. died.
In other words, once Kai seals his powers, he will die of organ failure within a month. But if his ability is not sealed, once he goes berserk, he will cause great damage. Kai had no clue about this situation. Treatment... There is no cure for Kai's situation at all. It's not a disease at all. There are no lesions and no triggers. It's entirely a genetic problem.
But leave this child alone?
But this is a child!
Chinese people are always very soft towards the elderly and children. Unless the crime is extremely serious, no one will be really cruel to a child. The kid himself is not wrong.
So in the end, Kai gritted his teeth and decided to hand over the child to SHIELD. Although Kai really didn't know what the SHIELD's methods were, he was still a decent character, right? Leave it to them, this kid still has a chance to live.
As for whether SHIELD will use this child for research... Kai really doesn't think SHIELD will really be that pure and flawless, but there has to be a price to pay for living, right?
"Don't worry, our SHIELD has the most advanced medical level, leave it to us."
Phil had already known from the mutant detector that this child was a mutant. Containment is inevitable!
…
After that, Kai was taken away by SHIELD for questioning and investigation. Although Phil seemed very sorry on the surface, he was not accommodating at all. He immediately pulled Kai to a secret base of SHIELD and conducted a three-day investigation. Isolated interrogation.
On the other side, Chicago Central Hospital. A man who looked a lot like Kai was waiting in the hospital corridor with a little fat man. The little fat man was very anxious and kept pacing in the corridor.
During the period of time when he was kidnapped, Sammy was the only person the little fat boy could communicate with. Sammy is a kind and strong child. Even though the pain on his body made him miserable, he still endured the pain and comforted the little fat man, telling him that an uncle named Red Tank would definitely come to save them.
He encouraged the little fat man not to give up. He advised the little fat man not to be so extreme. He also told the little fat boy that they would be saved, and they could study and play rugby together.
It wasn't until the pain in his body finally became unbearable that Russell realized that Sammy was seriously ill.
Russell thought about asking the group of people who kidnapped them to help Sammy treat his illness. But those scum told Russell that Sammy was hopeless.
But Russell didn't believe it. He didn't want to lose this friend. He even wondered if he was cursed by God. Anyone who was good to him would encounter misfortune.
His parents were like this, his uncle was like this, and now it was Sammy's turn?
…
Click.
The doctor opened the door and found Sammy in the ward, wiping various medical instruments and still in a deep coma.
"How is it? Doctor! Is the child okay?"
The doctor looked at Kai and shook his head.
"No, his condition is very bad. The tumor in his brain has spread, and the patient has obvious intracranial hypertension. Although we have performed intracranial decompression and temporarily stabilized his condition...but..."
"Can it be removed surgically?" Kai thought for a while and felt that if the tumor was removed, the remaining part might be solved through other methods.
"It's too late... His tumor has spread very seriously, and surgery will only make him die faster... I'm sorry, although it's a bit cruel... But I still want to say, let him have a happy last part of the journey... …sorry."
