Chapter 18 Nightcrawler and Mystique
"They say you can imitate anyone, even their voices..shung"
Although Mystique was in a bad mood at this time and had no intention of talking, Nightcrawler, whose skin was also blue, still came over and asked Mystique.
"I can even imitate my voice!"
Mystique didn't want to answer Nightcrawler's question, but just imitated Nightcrawler's voice and repeated the last sentence.
Nightcrawler didn't know whether Mystique had always had this personality or because she simply didn't like him. At this time, Mystique made him feel as cold as ice.
"Then why not just keep pretending? I mean... make yourself like everyone else?"
Mystique's cold attitude did not dispel Nightcrawler's curiosity, and he still raised his second question.
Because of her appearance, Nightcrawler grew up in the discriminatory eyes of others, so he couldn't understand why Mystique was unwilling to keep disguising despite her ability to disguise herself.
Could it be that she didn't care about other people's strange looks?
"Because there's no need!"
Yes, Mystique just doesn't care about other people's strange looks. However, Mystique once cared about other people's looks. But later, someone gave her the real answer, allowing her to face her own truth. Looks like courage.
After answering Nightcrawler's question, Mystique left on her own, ignoring Nightcrawler who was lost in thought.
"Sometimes destiny is really magical!"
Looking at Mystique walking away and Nightcrawler still thinking, Roy couldn't help but sigh.
Nightcrawler may not know Mystique's identity, but doesn't Mystique also know Nightcrawler's origins?
Maybe Mystique already has the answer, but she just doesn't want to announce it.
It comes from the teleportation ability of the Red Devil and the blue skin of Mystique. In fact, the answer is quite obvious.
……
The next morning
After the plane was repaired, Wolverine and others finally embarked on a journey to Lake Yakley.
"Why don't we have uniforms?"
Looking at the uniforms belonging to the X-Men on the plane, the little naughty boy was the first to ask.
"Yes, where's ours?" Iceman also asked.
"It's been decided, it should be delivered in a few years!"
After putting on his own uniform, Wolverine answered casually.
"I love your new hair style!"
When he saw the little naughty boy staring at him, Magneto took the initiative to speak.
Magneto's answer immediately aroused Little Naughty's anger, and Little Naughty immediately took off the glove on her left hand, intending to teach Magneto a little "lesson", if she could do it.
Before the little naughty boy had a chance to walk over, Iceman Poppy hugged the little naughty boy: "Hey, hey! Forget it, let's go!"
Rugrats can be impulsive, but Iceman can't.
Under Iceman's persuasion, the Little Naughty finally chose to give up and headed to the front of the cabin.
"They say you're a bad guy?"
At this time, the only ones still sitting at the back of the cabin were Magneto, Mystique, Pyro, and Roy.
"Is that what they said?"
"This beetle-like helmet is so ugly. What is it for?"
"Only this ugly helmet can protect me from the real bad guys!"
Although Magneto answered Pyro seriously, Roy was certain that Pyro never understood the true meaning of this sentence.
As soon as he finished speaking, Magneto controlled the magnetic field and made the lighter in Iceman's hand fly straight into his hand.
"What's your name?"
After picking up Pyro's lighter and looking at it for a few times, Magneto asked casually.
"John!"
"What's your real name? John?"
At this time, Pyro finally reacted and used his ability to absorb the flame of the lighter into the palm of his right hand.
"fire man!"
"Pyro, you're pretty good at it!"
"I can only control flames, not create them!"
After saying that, Pyro clenched his right hand and the flame disappeared.
"You are a god among insignificant sentient beings, don't let others notice that you are extraordinary!"
From Roy's point of view, Magneto's words were shameful and outrageous, but for Pyro, these words moved him deeply.
Is it any wonder that the Brotherhood of Mutants has always been incompetent and so easily fooled?
After saying these words that were full of deception and brainwashing, Magneto handed the lighter back to Pyro. This time, he did not use his superpowers, but handed it back with his own hands.
He is worthy of being a human being who has lived for sixty or seventy years. With just one sentence and one action, a mutant completely changed his concepts and thoughts.
After seeing this scene, Roy had to say a word of admiration for Magneto's charisma.
The rest of the journey went smoothly, without any further incidents, and the group arrived at Lake Yakli smoothly.
"Look, this is a topographic map of the dam. This is the spillway. See these images of density and density?"
After the plane landed, Storm used the plane's built-in radar to scan the terrain of Lake Yakley and the structure of the dam.
Then there was a scene where Storm used a virtual image to explain the terrain to everyone.
At this point in time, the X-Men can produce such powerful scanning radar and virtual projection images, which also reflects the X-Men's strong technological research and development capabilities.
Just for this scene, the United States, which spends a lot of research and development expenses every year, has not been able to use it, but a group of X-Men with no more than 10 people and only rely on private funds has easily made it. I have to say it's an irony.
"Those are tire tracks, that's the entrance!"
As long as it is related to combat, Wolverine's IQ will increase significantly.
"These show the thickness of the ice above ground, which is the most recent record of water flow activity."
After agreeing with Wolverine's statement, Storm continued to explain to everyone.
"If we go in, Stryker will release water into the spillway."
Although the entrance was already known, Phoenix Girl also pointed out a problem that must be solved.
"Can you teleport inside?"
Unable to enter through the floodway openly, Storm immediately thought of Nightcrawler's teleportation superpower.
"No, I must see where I am going, otherwise I may be trapped in the wall!" Night Walker shook his head helplessly.
"If you just want to teleport to the inside of the dam, I can take a few people to teleport in!"
In fact, Night Walker can also teleport to invisible places, but he is not skilled enough now, and he lacks a little bit of adventurous spirit.
"You can also teleport?"
"Is this your mutant superpower?"
"Hasn't your ability not been awakened yet?"
