Chapter 15 Searching for Wolverine
"Can I borrow your cell phone?"
The truck started again, and George immediately asked Gabriela.
Before thinking about how to save Tony Stark, he must understand the history and relevant situations of this world in order to make more accurate judgments and more complete plans.
And the fastest way in this era is naturally to use the mobile phone to find out online.
"Of course, here you go."
Gabriela took out her cell phone from her pocket without thinking and handed it to George.
After getting the phone, George began to search the Internet for the information he wanted to know. He did not return the phone to Gabriela until the truck entered the Mexican border and the sky gradually darkened.
"So that's it."
In fact, the history of this universe is not much different from the movie universe, except that there are more mutant elements.
According to online news reports, mutants were truly known to the public in 1973.
The mutant Mystique assassinated Trask, but was eventually stopped. Mystique became a hero of mutants, and humans began to gradually accept the existence of mutants.
In 1977, Quicksilver broke eight world records in sports competitions, and the sports world began to ban mutants from participating in professional sports competitions.
This conflicted with the movie universe, because according to the movie universe, Quicksilver was not born in that year. Quicksilver and Wanda in the movie universe were born in 1990.
This also reminded him that many things in the future could not be dealt with completely according to the plot of the movies he watched.
After that, the superhero organization X-Men was sought after by the public, and a large number of extended comics about X-Men appeared. The one in the hands of Little Wolf Girl and the others was one of them.
Many stories in it are adapted from real events of the X-Men, but there are also a lot of fictions, such as the so-called Garden of Eden.
In 1983, the Apocalypse incident occurred, and soon after it ended, the Westchester incident broke out. Professor X suddenly had epilepsy, and his brain went out of control and killed all the X-Men and mutant students in the school except Wolverine, plus more than 600 innocent humans around him.
Since then, Professor X has been listed as a "weapon of mass destruction" by the US government and was wanted, and mutants began to disappear.
More than 20 years later, most humans have forgotten the existence of mutants, and even many new generations only regard them as fake characters in comics.
For some reason, governments around the earth have been downplaying the history of mutants, as if they want to prove that the government is the biggest reliance of mankind, not mutant superheroes.
Before 1973, there was almost no news about the existence of mutants. This is why Rogers became Captain America through the super soldier serum and defeated Hydra.
It is probably because Wolverine and Sabretooth were ordinary soldiers with little reputation at that time, Professor X and Magneto were still children, and the Hellfire Club was also hidden in the dark.
"Have you ever thought about looking for Wolverine and Professor X who may still exist?"
At this time, George already had a rough plan in his mind.
Although the history of this universe has many conflicts with what he knows, some things have not changed in general. He cannot rely entirely on known intelligence, but he cannot completely give up his advantages in this regard.
At least the original reason for Tony Stark's kidnapping was probably Obadiah Stane, who wanted to kill Tony Stark and monopolize the Stark Group.
However, his psychic ability was not enough to read the information about the Ten Rings from Obadiah Stane, so as to find the location where Tony Stark was imprisoned, and Professor X was needed to take action.
Professor X's brain was out of control from time to time because of epilepsy, but it has improved a lot under the effect of drugs, and he is still conscious in most cases.
Maybe he can't be as powerful as before, but simple mind reading memory should still be possible.
After all, he can still chat with the little wolf girl from a distance from time to time.
With Wolverine as a meat shield, it is not difficult to rescue Tony Stark with his ability.
Although Wolverine is old, he is not a terrorist who can stop him when he is serious. Moreover, when Gabriella escaped, she brought a lot of drugs that can temporarily enhance the abilities of mutants, allowing Wolverine to recover some strength.
And most importantly, these two people have rich experience in planning and executing missions, which is something that he, Gabriela and this group of mutant children do not have.
To be honest, in this foreign country, he himself is also completely in the dark, even worse than Gabriela.
"We have thought about it. We have been looking for information about them before, but we only heard that there is a person who looks like Wolverine working as a driver in El Paso, and there are no other clues.
And we thought about it. Professor X is also a wanted criminal and may not be able to help us."
Gabriela replied helplessly.
George nodded after hearing this. In some ways, Gabriela's idea is not wrong. Wolverine and his friends are indeed in trouble.
"I have a plan now. If it succeeds, then in the future, the children may not need to be controlled by anyone and can live like normal people."
Without any concealment, he told Gabriela all his plans.
His idea is very simple. If Gabriela agrees, then he is willing to spend more time to help, which is an investment in the future.
If Gabriela doesn't agree, then he won't force it. He is not a bad person. After sending the children to their destination, he will leave alone to complete the plan and stabilize in New York.
Besides, his choice may not necessarily be the best for the children. They may live a better life in Canada.
Upon hearing George's plan, Gabriela fell into deep thought.
At this time, she was very conflicted, because to be honest, she had little confidence in the Canadian government. As a Mexican who grew up in Juarez, it was difficult for her to have much confidence in the government.
But the plan George mentioned was also very risky.
If George and the others failed to rescue Tony Stark in the end, and they missed the time agreed upon with the Canadian government, the children would eventually be captured and brutally killed by the people at the experimental base.
Also, will Wolverine and Professor X be willing to help?
Seeing the confusion in Gabriela's heart, George added:
"If Wolverine and Professor
Today is Saturday, and there are six days until next Friday. If all goes well, six days will be enough for them to rescue Tony Stark.
"Well, George, thank you so much!"
Gabriella nodded gratefully.
In fact, George could leave by himself without helping them. With George's ability and displayed mentality, it would not be difficult to escape from the lab's pursuit.
But he chose to stay to help them and find a way for them to live better.
"No need. After all, I'm a guinea pig at the experimental base just like them. I can also be considered their older brother."
George sighed with a smile.
"In fact, according to the time of creation, you should be considered the youngest among them."
Gabriela seemed to think of something and suddenly laughed.
And George couldn't help but smile when he heard this. That's right, it's been less than a year since his body was created, and he is really the youngest mutant in the laboratory.
