Chapter 116: Forced to compromise

"I don't care who you are, hand over my people."

Macca stared at Straker, his tone was cold, and his eyes were full of threats.

But Strack remained very calm and said unhurriedly: "Don't be so irritable. Maybe, we can sit down and have a good talk."

"We have nothing to talk about!"

Victor's eyes burned with anger, his claws stretched out, and he rushed directly towards Strucker, his whole person filled with murderous intent.

Whoops!

Bang.

Straker reacted quickly and easily avoided Victor's flying attack by turning sideways.

When Victor saw this, he rolled and landed, and was about to pounce on him again.

"Victor, calm down!"

Logan hurriedly stepped forward and held Victor's shoulders to stop him from attacking, while staring at Strack.

Now the professor and the others have probably been caught by this guy and cannot kill him yet.

Struck looked at the fierce look in their eyes, but was not angry because of Victor's attack. He smiled and said: "I can understand your impetuous mood now, but please calm down first and let us have a good chat first. "

Logan frowned and asked, "Where are the professor and them?"

What he is most concerned about now is the professor's safety.

"Don't worry, they're fine."

Straker smiled and waved behind him. Upon seeing this, a soldier from the farm in the distance immediately ran up with a tablet and handed it to Straker.

Straker handed the tablet to Logan with a smile and said with a smile: "If you are willing to cooperate, I guarantee that they will live very comfortably. Of course, if you refuse, then I am sorry, but I can only revoke the preferential treatment for them. "

Logan frowned and took the tablet, which displayed a video.

When I opened the video, I saw that the professor and Caliban were both wearing collars around their necks and were being held in a closed room. The huge room only had two beds, and the two of them were sitting on the edge of the bed.

The professor was quite calm, sitting on the bed with a calm look on his face.

Caliban, on the other hand, was obviously frightened, looking around in a panic, and kept saying something.

Looking at the two of them, Logan frowned.

Straker smiled and said: "Look, I didn't hurt them, and I even gave them enough food to ensure their food and clothing. This is my greatest kindness. I hope you won't live up to my kindness. "

After a pause, he added calmly: "If you have failed me, I can only apologize. Although using torture on a ninety-year-old wise man makes me a little bit intolerable, it is only a little more." It's just an inner condemnation, I won't show mercy."

"Guess how long Charles can withstand torture at his age. I guess it's ten minutes, or even less. After all, many guys younger than him can't last half an hour in our cell. Ten minutes may be enough. Charles is at his limit."

Strack squinted his eyes and looked at Logan and the others, "As for whether you want to keep them safe or make them suffer, the choice is yours."

Logan handed the tablet back with a sullen face and asked, "What do you want to do?!"

"I was hoping you could do me a favor."

Strucker smiled and said: "Of course, it may be a little dangerous, but you are all veterans with many battles and rich combat experience. I believe this favor is just a very simple thing for you."

Logan frowned.

He knew that what Sterkak was talking about must not be simple. After all, the power of Hydra was extremely terrifying. If it was not a particularly difficult matter, they would not need help from others at all, they could solve it themselves.

As for what allowed Strucker to use hostages to threaten Logan and the others, it must be something not simple, and it could even be said to be full of danger.

"What happened?"

Logan asked in a calm voice.

Strack smiled, "It's very simple. Just help me get something back from the Middle East. Don't worry, I can ensure that Charles and the others are intact before you complete the task. After you hand over the things to me, I will definitely They will come back to you alive and kicking."

After a pause, his eyes suddenly became dangerous, "If you refuse or the mission fails, then I'm sorry, I can't guarantee the safety of Charles and the others, but I can leave the bodies to you. I believe that seeing those thousands of wounds You will definitely be heartbroken when you see the dead body."

"Damn it!"

Victor's eyes were still filled with murderous intent, "We can't possibly do anything for Hydra!"

After finishing speaking, he said to Logan: "Catch him and trade him for Charles and the others!"

While speaking, Victor had already extended his claws again, trying to catch Straker.

But Strucker just smiled faintly, "You can try, Hydra will never accept threats, even if it is related to my life."

After speaking, he turned to look at Maika and said with a smile: "Now, let your leader decide. I want to hear your leader's answer more than you."

Maika fell into silence with a dark face.

If they agree, they will have to carry out a mission that is extremely dangerous without even thinking about it. If they agree, they may all die in the Middle East.

And if they refuse, Charles and the others will be completely ruined, including everyone in the shelter.

For a moment, Maika was also entangled.

He turned to look at Logan, wanting to ask for Logan's opinion.

And after Logan was silent for a while, he nodded and said: "No one in the shelter can give up!"

While the mission may be dangerous, if it involves teaching them, it's a risk Logan can take!

"Logan..."

Victor looked at him, frowning and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Logan.

He knew Victor's thoughts, captured Strucker, and threatened Hydra's people to release him.

This trick may be useful to others, but it seems a bit childish to Hydra. Those are a group of lunatics. Such a move will not only fail to teach them, but may even directly put their lives in danger.

Now that the key is still in Strucker's hands, they can't take any chances.

Any conflict will only cause harm to the professors.

Although they were very reluctant in their hearts, they could only agree now.

"We can help you."

After getting a nod from Logan, Maika also said: "But after completing the mission, you must ensure the safety of other people in the shelter and let them go!"

"Wise choice."

Strucker smiled and nodded, casting admiring glances at them. At the same time, he waved and took a document bag from the soldier beside him and handed it to Logan and the others.

"This is the location and content of the mission. I only give you one week. In one week, we will meet here. If I can't wait for you, then I can only apologize. I will help you bury the bodies of those people here. "

He said to everyone harmlessly: "I wish you all the best."

After saying that, he turned around and walked into the forest. Within the farm, dozens of Hydra soldiers ran out and followed him, leaving the farm together, leaving Hydra corpses all over the ground.

Looking at their backs, everyone's eyes were cold and they clenched their fists tightly.

The feeling of being caught in a weak spot and threatened is very unpleasant!

"These damn guys!"

Victor angrily punched the tree trunk on the side, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

If it weren't for Charles and the others still being in this guy's hands, he would definitely cut this guy into pieces!

Beside him, everyone had gloomy faces.

"How did the Hydra people find this place?"

Marcus spoke with a gloomy face. He was not surprised that the shelter was discovered, but what was strange was why it was discovered by Hydra, and why Hydra came to them.

If it was the Pickets or SHIELD, he wouldn't be that surprised. After all, they have their own conflicts.

But why did the Hydra people come? !

You know, they had rarely had any entanglements with Hydra before!

"There is no absolutely safe place in this world for us."

Maika sighed helplessly. As a mutant, he has the ability to fascinate others, but he also has to endure more suffering. Especially in the current situation, anyone may be their enemy. After shaking his head helplessly, Maika turned to look at Moira and said apologetically: "Sorry, I didn't expect this to happen."

Moira nodded helplessly, "I can understand, after all, being targeted by others is not your problem."

After saying that, she looked at the farm. At this time, the perimeter of the farm was full of corpses, and the remains of Hydra soldiers were everywhere.

"Can people still live on this farm?"

She needs to settle her own people before she can help Maika and the others consider other things.

Maika nodded, his hands flashed with golden light, and he used his power to create a large pit. Without saying a word, he threw all the remains of the Hydra into it, and then buried the pit. All the blood-stained soil was also They were all renovated by Maika using his abilities and covered with a layer of new soil.

"Okay, let's call them up."

After doing this, Maika exhaled and walked into the shelter.

Moira followed Logan and the others back to the convoy, drove everyone over, and temporarily settled in the farm.

It was already evening, and everyone began to prepare dinner on the farm. Smoke slowly rose, but the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

Soon, Moira's people prepared dinner.

One of Moira's men walked up to Logan and Victor personally carrying two meals.

"The meal is ready, let's have something to eat." He looked at the two frowning people and spoke carefully.

Logan and Victor just looked at him, shook their heads and pushed the food back, "Let others eat, we are not hungry."

After speaking, Logan looked up and glanced around and found that Maika was not in the temporary restaurant. He frowned and immediately stood up and walked towards Maika's office.

Victor also stood up immediately and followed Logan's footsteps silently.

The two of them knocked on the door of Maika's office. After entering, they discovered that they were not the only ones who had no intention of eating. Marcos and Moira were also there. They were sitting in Maika's office with dull expressions, and no one spoke. The atmosphere was very depressing for a time.

After all, such a big thing happened, and everyone in the shelter was in danger, so naturally Marcos and the others couldn't eat.

After all, they had come to the farm a long time ago, and they had a deeper relationship with everyone else on the farm, so they were naturally worried about their safety.

As for Moira, she was also thinking about helping Maika and the others at this time. After all, Maika had just helped them escape before, so this time she should regard it as her reward.

Logan and Victor sat on the sofa, everyone looked at each other in silence, and there was only the sound of breathing in the entire office.

In silence, Macca opened the file left by Straker. After looking through it, he took a deep breath and broke the deadlock of silence. "The file said that Hydra has arranged everything and we can take the ride tomorrow afternoon." The plane they arranged went to the mission location."

It can be seen that Strack is very anxious about that thing in the Middle East. He does not even leave any time for Logan and the others to prepare, and will set off tomorrow afternoon.

Logan took the document in Maika's hand and looked at it briefly, then looked up at Maika, "I suggest that people pay attention to the movements of Hydra. Maybe they can find the place where Charles and the others are being held."

After all, there are more than a hundred mutants on the farm, and Logan doesn't believe they can all be transferred away in a short time.

According to his guess, the professor and the others are likely to be detained nearby.

It would be best if they could find their hiding place. At least it would ensure that even if the mission failed, they would still have a chance to rescue Charles and the others.

Faced with Logan's proposal, Maika fell silent. After a while, he said: "As a last resort, we'd better not anger Hydra. Those guys are just a bunch of lunatics. No one dares to do that." Guarantee what they will do, if they find out that we are tracing their whereabouts, they may harm our people."

It was Hydra after all, and keeping their promises was just a luxury for them.

Victor looked at Maika and snorted coldly, "Don't be so cowardly, okay? If we don't tolerate it, it will only make those guys more arrogant!"

"Don't be impulsive."

Marcus on the side shook his head and said: "What Mika said is not unreasonable. Now that Hydra controls the lives of other people, we should still be more cautious in everything we do."

He didn't want anything to happen to anyone in the shelter.

In his eyes, everyone in the shelter is a relative!

"I think your focus should be on Hydra's mission. If the mission fails, Strack will definitely not let your people go."

Moira spoke, pointing at the document in Logan's hand, and then added: "You helped me, now that you are in danger, I should also help you, and I will follow you on this mission. go."

She is not someone who doesn't repay a favor. Now that Maika and the others are short of manpower, her joining has indeed been a big help to them.

"grateful."

Macca nodded to Moira and thanked him. He really needed help from others now.

After speaking, he paused, took a deep breath and said: "This operation will only be participated by the five of us present. The rest will stay on the farm first. After all, too many people and the target will be too big, which will be detrimental to us."

Although there are more than a hundred people brought by Moira in the farm, not many of them have combat capabilities, so someone must stay behind to protect their safety.

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Moira also said: "I will ask my people to pay attention to whether there are any traces of Hydra nearby, as a safety net, it would be best if I can find the place where your people are being held. If we can't find it, we can only hope that the Hydra people will keep their promises."

After being silent for a while, Maika nodded, "Okay, let them be careful."

…

At night, Logan and Victor sat outside the house, with barbecue and wine on the table in front of them.

They had not eaten dinner, and the meal time had passed long ago, and there was nothing in the temporary canteen.

This barbecue was simply roasted by Victor who caught a hare in the woods. Under normal circumstances, it would not be enough for them to eat, but now they are not in the mood to eat, they just want to fill their stomachs.

The two of them had sad faces as they sat at the table and clinked glasses, showing no joy in drinking.

The professor and Caliban may encounter danger at any time, which makes both of them extremely worried.

Even Victor felt uncomfortable at this time.

He had not known the professor for a long time, but he liked the kind old man very much. Being with them gave him a warm feeling of home.

Just when the two were thinking in confusion, a stone suddenly flew towards them quickly from the forest.

"who!"

When Logan noticed the stones coming, he was shocked. He stretched out his hand to swat the stones away, and at the same time turned his head to look into the forest.

I saw a familiar figure flashing past in the forest.

Although the night was dark, Logan still recognized the identity of the man, it was Weird Hans.

Obviously, the guy seemed to want to say something to himself again.

Without saying anything, Logan stood up abruptly and chased into the woods.

Victor on the other side was stunned and looked at Logan's back with confusion, but he still chased after him and asked, "Why are you going? Wait for me."

Because he was getting older, his perception was no longer as sensitive as Logan's, and he found no trace of Hans.

Soon, Logan and Victor stopped deep in the woods, and Hans stood not far from them.

"Sheep thief."

Only then did Victor see Hans' figure, and he frowned and muttered, but did not take action directly.

Logan also told them before that Hans would find trouble with him.

Hans stood in front of the two of them, with a normal look on his face, and asked, "Have all the people in the shelter been captured by Hydra?"

Logan frowned and stared into Hans' eyes.

He felt that this guy seemed to know everything. The farm had just been attacked and he had just come back not long ago, so he caught up right away.

When Victor on the other side heard this, he became furious and shouted coldly: "How did you know about this! Are you with Hydra?"

"Calm down Victor!"

Logan reached out and patted Victor on the shoulder, then turned to look at Hans, frowned and asked, "Do you know something?"

He didn't believe that Hans came to him just to make sarcastic remarks. Maybe he would know some hidden secrets.

Hans nodded silently, "I will show you a video first, and you will understand after watching it."

After saying that, he took out his mobile phone, walked to Logan and the other two, and clicked on a video to play.

Looking at the content in the video, Victor and Logan were stunned at first, and then their pupils shrank sharply, and their expressions suddenly became solemn. The content in the video can simply be described as horrifying!
