Ch 64: U-Men In Japan

So, I had posted an Interaction chapter with a paragraph for your Unreasonable hate. But this gentleman chose to do this in the reviews...(check paragraph comment to see the stupidity they wrote.)

============

Erik turned his attention towards his soldiers.

Giving them a wrist terminal and earpieces, he issued orders. "Form a two-man team. Head to these coordinates, and find out what they're hiding. Be subtle, stealthy, and don't attract attention. Killing or getting killed is fine, but getting caught is not. Communicate with me through the wrist terminals. And listen to the orders I give you using the earpiece or the message in the terminal." 

While Cindy was surprised by Erik's ability to give quick commands to his soldiers, Wanda was checking out [Resurrected] Wanda's figure.

The [Resurrected] Wanda was at least 4 years older than her and had slightly bigger boobs than her, her outfit was great too.

She would ask Erik to give her this outfit later...

'Wait, she was dead before becoming his soldier, right? Would I be called a Grave-Robber if I take her clothes?' Wanda mused, 'I suppose asking Erik for similar clothes would be a better choice.'

On the other hand, the soldiers nodded to his command wordlessly and tapped on their terminals to divide the search region among each other and then headed to finish the task. 

[Ressurrected] Wanda and Wasp headed together to one base, while Strange and Wong went to the other base.

The resurrected soldiers existed only to obey Erik's commands. And they accomplished his orders to the best of their abilities. They couldn't speak but could communicate through other means if his orders required it, like written messages, and telepathy if they were telepaths, like Wanda.

However, at present, they lack all the emotions, personalities, and most importantly intelligence to improvise, grow, learn, and adapt. At their core, they were just his soul-less puppets.

He really needed to figure out a way to repair his damaged system so his skills could be upgraded. 

"Yeah, let's head back to ship. They might take a couple of hours to report back." Erik shrugged.

"Then why don't we head to the town till then? We're on a tour anyway?" Wanda suggested. 

Erik thought for a moment and then agreed to head to the town.

After storing the stealth ship in [Beelzebuth's Stomach], the group descended the mountain in their black Ford Bronco, an SUV. Another one of their tour purchase. Even with all the money he had, the cars he bought weren't too expensive or flashy, he'd just buy one that suited his needs. 

The Stealth ship was already filled with several cars, clothes, souvenirs, and even a small yacht.

As they approached the outskirts of the nearest town, Erik's eyes looked around, taking in the quaint Japanese architecture and the serene, snow-covered landscape. Thankfully, the townfolks seemed ordinary.

They went towards a small, traditional inn. After checking in, the group headed out to the local market where the girls got busy with their shopping while Erik just enjoyed their excited faces. 

However, he kept his senses peeled for any sort of danger. After his death during the Battle of Asgard, he wasn't letting his guard down ever again in this universe.

A couple of hours later, [Resurrected] Wasp and Wanda sent him the information about the place they had chosen to investigate. 

It seems there was a tunnel hidden in the mountains with cutting-edge camouflage technology. 

And it led to an abandoned hospital, where mutants were being kept in some kind of sleeping pods. They also found two men who seemed like supervisors of the place and they had an army of cyborgs.

But surely, this kind of facility is not the main base. Wasp and Wanda didn't report any signs of the technology that was blocking telepathic and electronic scanning too.

"An abandoned hospital huh, now that's a cliche." Erik thought to himself before heading to the facility himself. 

The main reason he headed there was that even if [Resurrected] Wanda might be powerful enough to take care of the facility on her own, she was just a puppet in her essence. And Wasp and Wanda wouldn't be able to interrogate the leaders as efficiently as him.

He told his girlfriends to take care of Shilpa while he went to take care of this matter and then flew off. He just didn't want the kid to witness his brutality with enemies...

He met [Resurrected] Wanda and Wasp hidden in the forest near the facility.

He had already changed into Maw's suit before coming here. 

And then headed to the hospital along with them. Wasp knew all the hidden passages and led him to the control room/ Boss room. 

They were met with a small squad of cyborgs along the way but he just crushed them with his Telekinesis. He didn't forget to stow them into [Beelzebuth's Stomach] for research purposes.

After reaching the control room, they met two very furious and self-entitled old men. 

One of them seemed like an overly clever bastard who tried to escape the moment he saw them while the other was a crazy lunatic surviving only due to the huge life support systems he was enclosed in.

The clever one was Sublime and the paralyzed maniac was Kick. This Sublime wasn't the John Sublime. This guy was just named Sublime, not secretly a bacteria mastermind at all.

Sublime wanted to get inside his anti-mutant exo-suit but he was restrained by Wanda's chaos magic.

"My mutant detector isn't sensing any mutant among you... how did you fellas gain these supernatural abilities?" Kick, the Paralysed maniac asked.

"Well, to be honest, I do have the X-gene in my body. But let's just say I'm detection proof." Erik smiled.

"That's interesting," Kick smiled, "I need your organs to research them. Organs. Organs. oOOorgans. Organs. Organs. ORAGAAAANSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Kick's life support system buzzed with mechanical clicks and gears. The paralyzed maniac's life support system also worked as a defense and assault system and he fired several missiles on the group which were simply absorbed in [Beelzebuth] before they could even explode.

Kick's and Sublime's struggle didn't even last for a minute and were neutralized on the ground.

Now, Erik just needed to read their mind to know what these guys were up to in this small town.

But these guys were wearing Telepathic blockers somewhere in their body, so, Erik just tapped Sceptre on their chests to brainwash them and make them tell all the information he needed from them.

Erik's Telepathy was strong, at least multiple folds stronger than Emma Frost's from whose DNA his Telepathy was created. This enhancement was due to the Titan DNA in his cells. 

But the Telepathic blocker gadgets that these guys used were so advanced that he would need the Sceptre to negate the gadget's effects.

Honestly, he'd rather just tap them with Sceptre since it was easy to do so.

Anyway...

These guys called themselves U-Men and were currently hired by a Japanese female scientist who was working towards creating a serum that could negate the X gene permanently. 

Seems like her serum is not producing the required results and is turning mutants into monsters. But that was not their business.

They were hired in exchange for a technology that could block wide-range Telepathic scanning, a tech that could block Telepaths from taking over their minds. And finally, a mutant locator that could work regardless of the Telepathic scanning blocker.

In exchange, they would give her the mutant tissues from the mutants that they'd hunt for her research.

These things seemed so complicated and had progressed so far that Erik really thought that by this time X-Men should already be here.

'I have to finish this up as fast as I can. Don't really wanna meet 'em.'

Then he went towards the area where the mutants were captivated in Sleeping pods.

And there she was... 

Peacefully sleeping in one of them. As if sleeping beauty waiting for her prince charming... The White Queen of the Inner Circle — Emma freaking Frost.

==============

Thanks for reading!

Emma will just be a close friend for now. Don't get your hopes up and ask for a foursome by the end of this arc.

And some suggestions said they wanted more smut while other said they were fed up of it. Right now there are 5 smut chapters in the whole 64 chapters of the fic. And let me tell you, I don't have a rule to drop smut after specific number of chapters, I write them when I think it would suit the scenario. 

But still, I'll like to conduct a vote to see what the audience wants.

Vote!

1. Need less smut ( smut after 20 or more chapters). 

2. Satisfied with porn-to-plot ratio (smut after 10-15 chapters) [This is what I like.]

3. Need more smut ( smut after 5-6 chapters ).

NOTE: Your votes don't guarantee to change my decision.

Another thing, the numbers of patrons hasn't been rising lately, do you think there is something I should improve in this fic to gain more readers or patrons? Is the fic boring or what? Tell me!! 

The schedule for next chap is sunday @ 9.30 pm IST.

100 patrons goal! Patreon has 20 chapter ahead now!

Current count: 38/100
