Chapter 75: Arriving at the mutant shelter and recovering the self-healing factor!

The prison robbery and the deaths of a large number of picket personnel have obviously completely angered local officials.

In particular, releasing hundreds of felons and mutants is undoubtedly trampling on the face of government officials.

On this day, the entire border area and its surrounding areas were on high alert.

Under the instruction of local government officials, all vacations for the picket team were cancelled, all members were recalled, and all other ongoing tasks were put on hold. The entire picket team, plus the special police department, and even a small number of local troops, were all involved in the attack on Logan and others. During the encirclement and suppression operations.

The entire city and its surrounding areas are almost sealed off, and even the inaccessible jungles are constantly being investigated by patrols.

Under this dragnet, the situation of Logan and others is undoubtedly extremely dangerous. They have to be extremely careful in every step they take. If they are not careful, they will fall into the abyss completely.

Under such a situation, the two-man exploration team composed of Logan and Victor could be said to be really walking on the edge of a knife. They were almost hit by the pickets several times. Thanks to their timely response, they were able to avert the danger.

Fortunately, the leader they captured was a complete coward. Under the threat of death, Logan and the others easily extracted from him the deployment situation of the picket team and the time when some patrol teams passed by in remote areas.

Relying on this information, Logan and the others chose a relatively safe route and drove out of the search area without any incident.

After leaving the search area, they did not dare to stop and drove quickly on the road. After running for hundreds of kilometers, they took a break beside a rugged mountain road that was rarely visited.

"Now that you are safe, there is no point in keeping me. Can you let me go?"

The team leader, who was pressed into the back seat of the car, carefully looked at Logan and John sitting on both sides and spoke tremblingly.

Logan didn't speak, just glanced at John and motioned for him to make the decision.

John nodded happily, opened the car door, and said calmly: "Let's go."

When the team leader saw this, he was a little dazed. It seemed that he didn't expect Logan and the others to let him go, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.

On the other side, Logan stretched out his steel claws and cut off the ropes tied to his hands and feet.

The leader looked at the suddenly relaxed hands and feet, then looked at the car door, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he quickly got out of the car without hesitation, running wildly on the road as if to escape, as fast as a cheetah.

Whoops!

Suddenly, a short sword penetrated his chest from the back. The heart-breaking stinging sensation made him stop immediately. He lowered his head in disbelief and looked at the sword tip emerging from his chest.

Click.

Lorna in the car stretched out her hand and the dagger flew out of the leader's chest and returned to her palm. Looking at the red blood on the dagger, she hummed softly: "You can go now."

As the dagger was recalled, hot blood spurted out from the leader's chest.

As he was leaving, he couldn't help but look back at the vehicles behind him. His vision gradually blurred, as if he was cursing these people for not keeping their word. Then he fell heavily to the ground, and the blood completely dyed the ground red.

"It's not like we broke our promise. He is indeed gone forever."

Logan looked at the corpse, shook his head with a smile, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Lorna, indicating for her to clean her sword.

"What a humorous joke."

Lorna carefully wiped the dagger clean, never letting the dirty blood remain on her sword.

"From the time he ignored the children and ordered the shooting of the wooden house, his current fate was destined."

John snorted coldly. They had never been a caring organization. How could they really let go of such a scumbag who wouldn't even let a child go?

They will not be merciful to their enemies.

After solving this problem, Logan and the others got out of the car.

On the flat ground on the other side, the children gathered together to simply replenish food and water. Because they had just experienced life and death, the psychological fear made these children extremely well-behaved. They ate honestly and even talked less. a lot of.

"Everyone, it's time to hit the road. We still have a long way to go."

John clapped his hands, signaled the children to finish their meal, and arranged for them to get in the car.

With more than 20 children, it took three vans to fill up.

These three vans were snatched by Logan and the others. After all, they were fleeing. The bulletproof van driving the picket was too eye-catching, so Logan, Victor and John rushed to a car dealership in the nearby suburbs. Three vans were robbed.

In fact, it can't be said to be robbery. Before leaving, John left more than ten picket guns with the people at the car dealership. Those items were put on the black market, and the price was far higher than those of the three vans.

After calling the children into the car one by one, Logan and Victor sat in the driver's seat and passenger seat of the first car respectively. They were responsible for the professor and six or seven children in the car.

Behind, John and Lorna were in charge of one car, and Klaus and Caliban were in charge of another car. Except for refueling, the three cars barely stalled and rushed to the Canadian shelter at full speed.

As John said, the journey to the shelter was long, and in order to avoid pursuit, they could only walk on rugged mountain roads, trying to avoid the mainland and avoid contact with the interrogators.

Finally, the vehicle drove into the large forest in the north and continued to shuttle through the woodland.

"Alberta."

On the main driver's side, Victor noticed the road sign and almost subconsciously recited the name of the place on the road sign.

He couldn't help turning his head and smiled at Logan: "Jimmy, we are back in Alberta!"

"Alberta..."

This name made Logan feel a little dazed. In the back of his mind, the memory belonging to Wolverine kept replaying the past because of the appearance of this place name.

Alberta, that farm in Edmonton, and that bloody night...

This is definitely the most unforgettable place in Wolverine's life and the starting point of his legend. The story here is really unforgettable.

"I never thought we could come back here."

Victor looked at the surrounding environment, couldn't help laughing, and said with some emotion: "I really don't know if the farm at that time is still there."

"Even if it is here, it probably belongs to someone else. I don't know who Mr. Howlett inherited it from."

Logan looked out the window and spoke calmly. Although he had not personally experienced that past event, he had a deep memory of Wolverine's past.

"You'll know when you have time to go and see it."

Victor smiled and shrugged, "When we come to the shelter, I think the safety problem will be much smaller. I believe we will have time to revisit our old place."

Logan couldn't help but turned around in surprise and asked in disbelief: "You actually want to go back?"

This farm left Victor with a bad memory. All he felt here was humiliation and injustice. Logan thought he would hate this place.

"Why not?"

Victor smiled at Logan, and then breathed a deep sigh of relief, as if he had looked away, and as if he had said goodbye to the past time completely. He smiled and said: "Time will smooth everything out, won't it? Including me. I have been humiliated, and the person who humiliated me has long since fallen asleep. Even if I want to hate him, I don't know who to hate. "

Logan looked surprised. He really didn't expect Victor to be so open-minded.

But if you think about it carefully, for them, that happened nearly two hundred years ago. Two hundred years is enough to make up for any trauma.

Just as Logan was sighing, the voice of John from the car in front suddenly came over the intercom.

"Everyone, we're getting ready. It's in the woods ahead."

"It's finally here. I'm almost suffocating in the car."

Caliban's response came out immediately, and from his voice, it was not difficult to hear the joy in his heart.

Obviously, this whole journey was really torture for him.

After putting down the walkie-talkie, Caliban couldn't help but sniff, his eyes flashing with excitement, "It seems that your shelter is indeed safe. I feel the scent of many mutants. I haven't smelled so many of the same kind for a long time."

Klaus, who was next to him, couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and said: "Your sensing range is not small. It seems that it will be much easier for us to find mutants in the future."

After talking along the way, Klaus also learned about Caliban's ability. This ability to search for mutants is indeed useless for combat, but it is indeed a unique skill when used to search for mutants.

Under the leadership of John, the convoy passed through the dense woods in front and finally stopped at a small farm by the river.

Surrounded by mountains and forests, the air is fresh, the birds are chirping, the place is remote and quiet, and it feels like a paradise.

Logan parked the vehicle and looked around at the beautiful scenery. He couldn't help but think that if no one disturbed him, it would be a good choice to retire here. Everyone opened the car door and got out of the car, stretching their bodies happily by the river. Running all the way made their bones creak when they moved.

At this time, a group of people suddenly rushed out of the farm. They were of different ages and skin colors, but they all held long guns in their hands and looked at Logan and the others with vigilance.

"Don't be nervous, it's me, I brought people back."

John, who was in the car in front, saw this and hurriedly got out of the car and spoke to these people.

After seeing John, these people's alertness suddenly disappeared and they quickly put away their guns.

"You are finally back."

One of the men breathed a deep sigh of relief. Immediately he looked around anxiously, "Where's Lorna?"

"Marcus, I'm here."

Lorna pushed the professor towards Marcos.

After seeing that Lorna was safe and sound, Marcos breathed a long sigh of relief and let go of his worries. He immediately looked at the professor and asked in surprise: "Is this the Professor X you mentioned in the email?"

Before returning, they sent an email to the shelter to inform them of their experiences along the way and asked them to prepare a place for Logan and others.

"It's not just professors."

Lorna smiled and introduced Logan, who was coming from behind, "And Wolverine, Logan."

"Guys, welcome to join the shelter."

Marcus enthusiastically went up to shake hands with Logan, "I hope you can adapt to the environment here."

He had already heard about the names of Wolverine and Professor

"Thank you for taking us in." Logan responded with a smile.

Marcus waved his hand quickly, "We are all members of the tribe, so there is no need to be so polite. The purpose of our shelter is to protect the tribe. The more mutants who join, the better."

As he said that, he glanced at the professor, Victor, and Caliban, and said: "The leader of our sanctuary, Maika, knows that you are coming and has been preparing to receive you early in the morning. I will take you to meet him first. "

Logan nodded, "Okay."

It is obviously necessary to come to other people's territory and meet the leader here. In his words before traveling, it is to pay homage to the mountain gate. Even if Marcus didn't say it, he would still bring up the idea of ​​meeting the leader. .

Marcus nodded happily, turned to Lorna and said, "I'll take them there first, and you take care of these children."

After saying that, he led Logan and others into the farm, came to a small building in the center of the farm, and met Maika.

"Wolverine, I finally meet you. Your legendary experience sounds as legendary as a history book."

Macca is a bearded man with sharp eyes, like a rancher wearing a cowboy hat. He shakes hands with Logan enthusiastically.

Then he turned to look at the professor in the wheelchair, "Professor Charles, it's great to see you. You are simply my idol. I have read some of your research works on the X gene. Although it is a bit obscure, it is definitely Open the door to my understanding of the X gene, and you can even be regarded as my teacher."

Seeing Maika's attitude, Victor couldn't help but lean into Logan's ear and said with a smile: "You have so many fans. You can meet them here. You can see them everywhere."

Logan rolled his eyes, signaled him to stop talking, and then responded with a smile: "Thank you for taking me in. If there is anything I need at the shelter in the future, you can just ask. As long as I can help, I won't do anything." Will refuse."

"We will talk about these things later. I believe that this big family at the shelter will make you feel happy and safe."

Maika waved his hands and responded with a smile, and then spoke again: "I read the email sent back by John and the others. It made me sweat. Fortunately, there was no danger, but you must be exhausted too. I'll give it to you. You have prepared your shelter and let Marcos take you there. Of course, I should have introduced you to the shelter, but I'm really sorry. I'm still busy with some things right now, so I can only excuse you. I'll talk to you later. Chatting with you."

Logan nodded, "In that case, I won't bother you. Anyway, we have many opportunities to chat here."

"Yeah, bye."

Maika waved at them.

Marcus took Logan and the others to their residence. As they passed through the farm on the way, he briefly introduced the current situation of the farm.

"This farm is run by everyone, and it is also one of the main sources of shelter. We live there, in the wooden house on the north side. It is very convenient to visit and chat when we are bored." Marcos pointed to a wooden house in the distance.

"It looks very cozy."

Logan pushed the professor, looked at the wooden houses and nodded.

"Of course." Marcus smiled, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and said again: "By the way, for safety reasons, there are some rules in the shelter that we still have to abide by. Here, we don't have to cook, there are special Meals are served in the canteen, which is distributed per person. No, the canteen is not far from the wooden house, which is very convenient. "

"By the way, one more thing, you can't go out at will after ten o'clock in the evening. You need to report every night, and you must also report and apply when you go out. After all, it is for safety reasons. I hope you can understand and comply, otherwise the shelter may be closed. It's hard to accept. After all, the stricter the rules, the better the security. If it's messy, it's easy to get messed up."

Marcos pondered the rules for supplementing the shelter.

Logan nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, we won't break the rules."

Marcus smiled and nodded, and soon led a few people to a duplex wooden house. He pointed at the wooden house and said with a smile: "This is your future home. I wish you a happy stay. You have a good rest first, and I will No need to interrupt, see you at dinner."

"good."

Logan nodded and looked at the wooden house up and down. The structure of this wooden house was good, he liked it very much, and it was at the edge of the house. It had good ventilation and lighting.

On the side, there is a row of identical wooden houses, which look very neat.

"Let's go. I'm exhausted today. I can fall asleep just lying on the bed now."

Victor yawned and pushed open the door of the cabin.

Obviously, Maika arranged for someone to clean it, and it was very clean overall. Although the decoration was very simple, it was a wooden house after all, and the simple decoration gave it a retro feel.

The room in the wooden house is enough for one of them, and the water and electricity supply are complete. There is even hot water in the shower room.

Logan and the others simply tidied it up, made the bed, hung the clothes they brought in the closet, and laid out all the daily necessities. After all the actions, the cabin really felt like a home.

After dealing with it casually, everyone was exhausted. After carrying the professor to his own bed, they all went back to their rooms to rest.

I went back to the room and closed the door. Fatigue hit me instantly. After taking a comfortable hot bath in the toilet, I lay on the bed. However, I didn't rest directly. Instead, I started to think about the attribute panel.

[Endurance]: 6

[Strength]: 8

[Agility]: 7

[Speed]: 9

[Intelligence]: 5

[Defense]: 7

[Willpower]: 10

[Fighting Skills]: 7

[Prestige]: 191

[Special Attributes]: None

[Special Abilities]: Self-healing factor, heat vision, annihilation

[Current physical condition]: Physical condition is gradually improving!

[Free points]: 17

[Enhancement points]: 11

"The free points are actually 17!"

Logan looked at the column of free points in surprise. Since he always wanted to save this thing for critical moments, he rarely used it to increase attributes.

But I didn't expect that I would accumulate so much without realizing it.

And there are eleven enhancement points, which is definitely a lot of money.

Logan thought about the battle experience that just happened, and murmured: "It seems that most of these points were added when rescuing Lorna. Staying with the tribe is indeed a good choice. Even the points can be accumulated in a short time. So much growth."

Thinking about it, Logan added all the enhancement points to the self-healing factor without hesitation.

Nowadays, in addition to steel claws, his attack methods also include heat vision and annihilation, which are enough to defeat the enemy. On the contrary, his defensive self-healing factor urgently needs to be enhanced.

As the points increase, a sense of pleasure instantly fills the whole body, just like suddenly jumping into a pool on a hot summer day. It feels comfortable from the inside out, and the aches and pains all over the body gradually dissipate.

Logan couldn't help but move his limbs, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise.

At this time, he noticed that the physical condition on the panel had also changed.

"The physical condition is normal and the X gene is gradually recovering."

Looking at this line of words, Logan was shocked.

This means that your self-healing factor is about to return to its peak!
