Chapter 16 Dusk Wolf's Concerns
Early morning in El Paso County, Texas.
Logan, who had just delivered his last customer, was sleeping tiredly in his rented extended-length luxury car, but was awakened by the noisy sound outside.
"What the hell!"
Cursing angrily, he had to get up with difficulty and push open the car door.
He often encountered this kind of thing. It must be those gangsters who smuggled over from Mexico. They took a fancy to his luxury car and wanted to remove the wheels and sell it for money.
However, he couldn't let those gangsters succeed at this time, because he still relied on this rented car to make money, and now he needed money very much.
The professor's illness requires money to buy medicine. He has been saving money to buy a yacht and take the professor to live a safe life on the sea.
After living for so many years and experiencing the death of his friends and loved ones, he was actually tired of his own life.
The only thought now is to give Charles, his only old friend who redeemed him and is still alive, a decent old age life.
And if these gangsters were to take off the wheel, not only would he have to pay the rental company, but he would also be unable to maintain this stable job.
"Hey, these nuts are all chrome-plated and have been damaged by you guys. You guys, leave quickly..."
Holding the car door, Logan tried to persuade these gangsters to leave without using violence, but the result was obviously not what he wanted.
When the gangsters saw the car owner appearing, they did not run away immediately. Instead, they raised their hands and shot Logan, and then continued to remove the wheels.
Killing seems to them to be as simple as eating and drinking.
Logan's self-healing ability has been greatly reduced due to the toxins in the Adamantium alloy, but such injuries are not enough to kill him.
He stood up and slowly released his wolf claws, stepped forward and started fighting with the gangsters.
But due to his aging body and lack of adequate rest, he was soon beaten to the ground by six gangsters. He could only protect his head with his hands and look for opportunities to fight back.
"George, can he really still help us now?"
In the big truck, Gabriela asked worriedly.
They changed the route and drove to El Paso County. After four hours of searching, they finally found traces of Wolverine Logan, but the current scene made her lose some confidence.
George smiled and nodded:
"Of course you can, and it can help a lot."
Don't look at Wolverine like this now. If he really gets ruthless, no one will be able to match him.
If a way to remove the Adamantium alloy toxin can be found in the future, Wolverine's body will return to its peak youthful state.
You must know that Tianqi also gained the ability to heal himself, but he has lived for thousands of years without any aging.
"You guys wait for me here, I'll go talk to him first."
Pushing open the car door, George jumped out and used his power to control two daggers and swipe them at the necks of those gangsters.
For this kind of gangster who has no moral bottom line and kills innocent people at will, he will naturally not have any kind thoughts and will aim at the vital points.
"Swish, brush, brush."
There were several sounds of the trachea being cut by sharp blades. The gangsters who were kicking Wolverine instantly covered their necks and fell down in disbelief.
Wolverine noticed the abnormality and let go of his arms, also looking surprised.
At this moment, a hand reached out to him.
"It's okay, Wolverine Logan."
"Friend, you may have mistaken the person. I am not Wolverine, but thank you for your help."
Logan did not stretch out his hand, but slowly stood up by himself.
George didn't pay attention, retracted his hand and continued:
"My name is George, and I am a mutant. We have thirty-five mutant children here. We need your help and the professor's help."
"Mutants? Mutants have disappeared long ago. There are no mutants in this world, and there are no Wolverine or Professor."
Wolverine shook his head and squatted down with some difficulty, trying to pick up the nuts scattered on the ground and restore the car's tires.
George stretched out his hand and the scattered nuts on the ground instantly floated up and fell into his hand.
"There are indeed not many mutants that appear naturally, but there are still many mutants created by man-made experiments. For example, I am a mutant synthesized using the genes of the professor and Magneto."
"Who are you?"
When Wolverine saw the nut floating in the air, his eyes showed a vigilant look, and the wolf claws of his hands stretched out again, although one of them was stuck halfway.
George paused when he saw this, and then waved in the direction of the truck parked on the side of the road not far away.
After a while, Gabriela slowly walked over with the wolf girl and other thirty-five mutant children.
"Show Mr. Logan what you're capable of."
The little wolf girl stretched out her Adamantium alloy wolf claws, and Ricko raised an earth wall from the ground. The other children also used their own abilities, controlling wind, fire, plants, water and electricity. There are also breathing cold air and so on.
Although the power is not great because it has not been developed yet, it can indeed prove one's mutant identity.
"Mr. Logan, George didn't lie to you, we just escaped from the Institute of Genetic Modification in Mexico City, they"
Gabriela explained her experience and the situation of the institute in detail.
After hearing this, Wolverine took a deep breath, looked at George and the children, and refused with some difficulty:
"I'm afraid, I can't and don't have the ability to help you."
He didn't care about his own life or death, but the professor's current situation did not allow him to be involved in such a troublesome matter. If he didn't handle it well, he might cause the professor's death.
So even if he couldn't bear it, he still refused at this time.
Gabriela's eyes dimmed when she heard it, but George had expected it and did not give up.
He knew the reason why Wolverine refused, and he also knew that Wolverine was essentially a kind person. As long as he gave a reasonable step, it would be easy to convince the other party.
"I accidentally saw the relevant information about the Westchester incident at the experimental base. You drove so hard to make money, probably to cure the professor's illness.
You help us, in fact, you are also helping the professor and yourself.
If we follow our plan, the professor will get the world's best medicine and equipment treatment in the future, and maybe he can return to normal."
"But have you ever thought that the famous playboy Tony Stark may not repay us, but may even sell us out?
Not everyone in this world is willing to repay you after being saved. Many may even retaliate against you for their own benefit."
Wolverine was silent for a moment and replied.
He has a deep understanding of this kind of thing.
He once saved an officer on the battlefield of World War II. As a result, when the officer was about to die of old age, he actually coveted his self-healing ability and wanted to kill him and take away his self-healing ability so that he could survive.
