American comics: Old Wolverine, do whatever he wants

The plane flew through the blue sky. Before it landed, you could clearly see the yellow sand flying freely on the ground. The layers of sand blown up by the wind and dust hit the yellow-brown sand like waves.

This is the Middle East, a place with extremely high desert coverage and several world-famous desert areas.

The plane that Logan and the others took landed at the airport surrounded by yellow sand.

This is a country built on a desert, and their destination is also a city shrouded in yellow sand.

As soon as I got off the plane, the hot temperature hit my face. In the cloudless sky, the blazing fireball seemed to give this area special care. The air I breathed into my lungs was not only hot but also filled with many subtleties. of sand and dust.

The dust that hit their faces forced several people to squint their eyes and scan the city that was completely wrapped in yellow sand.

Logan walked on the hot ground, and the sun-scorched ground radiated high temperatures. Even with the soles of his shoes, he could still feel the unbearable temperature on his feet.

"How many years ago was the last time you came to Asia?"

Behind him, Victor looked at the endless sand and sighed.

He traveled to many places, including the Middle East. He was still very young at the time. In his impression, the Middle East was like this, with yellow sand everywhere and it seemed that every place was exactly the same.

"The last time I came back, I was with the mercenary group. We have a mission here."

Logan scanned the area, recalling the past. Deep in his memory, the memories belonging to Wolverine contained the past about coming to the Middle East.

“I didn’t expect to be able to visit my old place again, haha, I like the roasted naan and roasted lamb here.”

Victor recalled the delicacies of this vast area, then turned to look at Maika, "Hey, Maika, do you have enough money for us to have a feast here?"

"We are not here for tourism."

Maika rolled her eyes at him and urged: "Hurry up, we still have to go to the city center."

After saying that, he led everyone to the parking lot and found an off-road vehicle prepared by Hydra for them. Off-road vehicles with strong horsepower and high chassis are necessary for traveling in the Middle East. Ordinary vehicles can easily get stuck in the sand. middle.

Everyone threw their luggage into the trunk, and Logan got into the driver's seat and drove to the city center according to the map prepared by Maika.

According to the document left by Strack, there were Hydra people in the city center specifically to receive them.

On the way, everyone admired the vast desert that was rarely seen in this life. It was like an ocean paved with sand. The dust and sand stirred up by the strong wind from time to time were like waves.

"Asalan, the locals think this is the capital of the sand sea. The entire city is completely built on the desert and is surrounded by a vast sea of ​​sand."

Maika sat in the passenger seat, admiring the desert that looked like a deep ocean outside the car, and introduced this place to everyone.

Then he seemed to remember something and turned around to ask: "I hope you all brought coats. The highest temperature in this city during the day can even reach fifty-five degrees Celsius. It can be said that most of the afterglow of the Sun God is spilled here."

"But once night falls, it is like a place abandoned by the sun god. It can drop to four or five degrees below zero within a few hours. If you don't have enough warmth to stand outside all night, people will freeze to death. ”

Maika looked at everyone and said, "I hope you won't be deceived by the current temperature. It's best to have a few coats in your backpack."

"You were probably not even born when I first came to the Middle East."

Victor nodded with disdain. He had long known about the fickle temperature here, and had prepared all the necessary daily necessities before leaving.

Moira also nodded and said: "I often traveled to Asia when I was in college. In addition to East Asia, these Muslim countries in West Asia also come often. You don't have to worry, I have everything I need to prepare."

When Logan, who was driving, heard her words, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's great to have a university where you can travel casually. In my university, we carry out fatal missions every day."

To be honest, Logan really envied Moira's college career, where there was no trouble or danger, and she could travel all over the world during the holidays.

Unlike his X Academy, everything he did was more dangerous than the last.

Listening to Logan's envious tone, Moira smiled and shook her head: "It's all in the past tense."

While chatting, Logan drove the car to the city.

Although it looks desolate here, the urban area is also very lively. There are many houses built with yellow bricks on both sides of the road. Most of them are short and have small windows. They have a retro feel.

But it's just a retro style. In fact, it's as prosperous as any other city. There are various shops on the roadside with various signboards, and there are even some luxury brand stores from Western countries.

Compared to driving, locals obviously prefer walking, and there are very few cars on the road.

Most of the people were wearing roughly the same clothes, all in white, with headscarves on their heads, mumbling words that Logan and the others couldn't understand.

Luo He followed the map prompts and drove into the city's library, which was their agreed meeting point.

Maika took several people out of the car and entered the library.

There were very few people in the library at this time. There were only a few students who looked like they were sitting at the table and reading quietly.

Logan and others randomly found a place to sit down. After a while, a local man wearing white clothes and a headscarf came over.

"Meca's people?"

He stood in front of Logan's table and asked in not very fluent English.

Looking at the appearance of the connector, Maika and the others nodded and stood up.

"Follow me." The contact person looked around carefully, then turned and walked towards the second floor of the library.

Logan and the others hurriedly followed.

Along the way, the contact person said nothing more, and no one spoke a word. The scene was extremely quiet.

The connector led everyone to the second floor and walked into a room that had been decorated for a long time.

There are various route maps posted here, all roughly in the same place, obviously related to this mission.

The connector waved his hand and motioned for several people to sit down at a long table in the middle of the room, and then said, "Baron Strucker wants to talk to you."

As soon as these words came out, Logan asked in surprise: "Is he here?"

While speaking, he glanced around the room, but there was no one else in the small room.

The contact person didn't say anything, he just pushed out a TV from the corner of the room and turned on the screen.

Straker appeared on the screen, sitting at his desk and looking at everyone through the screen with a smile on his face.

"Congratulations on your arrival in Asalan. I believe you have finished enjoying the scenery along the way. Now it's time to get down to business. I hope you will keep your promise and help me bring back what I need."

Strack's voice came from the television's loudspeaker, his words polite but threatening.

"certainly."

Maika stared at the TV and said solemnly: "I also hope you can keep your promise and release my people after the mission is completed."

"As long as you bring the things back, everything will be fine."

Straker narrowed his eyes and spoke, and then continued: "Don't worry, as long as people sincerely help me, I will treat them as friends, and I have always been very kind to my friends."

After a pause, Strack seemed to remember something, and said: "By the way, you should really take good care of those children. They tried to escape. Fortunately, they didn't get lost. I have already helped you educate them. Children, There should be more education.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

Logan was furious, stared at Strucker on the screen, and sternly asked: "What did you do?!"

He looked at the screen with a sullen face. He believed that the education mentioned by Struck could never be as simple as verbal preaching!

Those children may be suffering from some unbearable torture!

Looking at the faces of Logan and others, Strack just smiled slightly, "It's just that a few little guys were slightly injured, but don't worry, they have been rescued. Before the mission fails, I will guarantee the lives of each of them." Safety."

rescue!

This word instantly made everyone's expressions become extremely cold.

"They're just kids."

Marcus had a dark face and gritted his teeth.

It is hard to imagine that Strack would actually attack several children who had no ability to resist, and even beat them until they needed rescue!

In other words, those children may have been in a life-threatening situation at that time!

"A kid's mutant powers are just as deadly, aren't they?"

Straker looked calm and chuckled: "Hurry up and complete the task, gentlemen, for your sake and for the sake of others, otherwise you will really have to say goodbye to them forever."

After saying that, the screen hung up, leaving only a few people in front of the TV with grim expressions.

"Damn it!"

Victor's face was cold, his cold eyes stared at the screen, then scanned everyone, and finally landed on Maika, his sharp claws about to come out.

"Calm down, Victor."

Logan reached out and patted Victor on the shoulder, signaling him not to be angry.

Victor still had a gloomy look on his face and looked sideways at Logan, "The more we tolerate it, the more aggressive those guys will get!"

He believes that this is the result of blindly tolerating, and he will only be bullied by others!

"But if we can't bear it now, what will the children and professors do?"

Logan frowned and patted Victor, fearing that he would lose control, and then sighed: "Don't worry, they will definitely regret their decision today, and we will take revenge."

Although Logan didn't want to give in, in this situation, he had to give in temporarily.

Then he turned to look at the Hydra contact person and said with a dark face: "Let's get started. What is our specific mission?"

The document given by Strack only said that they should come to the Middle East to contact people, and the specific tasks would be introduced by the contact person.

Maika on the side also urged: "Hurry up, we are in a hurry!"

The connector had been standing next to the TV like a stake, without speaking or making any movement.

It wasn't until Logan asked him that he took any action. He glanced at everyone and said in broken English: "The task given to you by Baron Strucker is very simple, just to intercept a batch of goods."

Everyone listened to the coordinator's words, frowning, and intercepted the word. Just listening to it, they knew that it was very difficult.

"This shipment is not simple, is it?"

Logan looked directly into the contact's eyes and asked in a deep voice.

He knew very well that if the task was simple, the Hydra people would take it themselves.

For Strack to expend so much effort to capture the mutants in the sanctuary and threaten him to carry out his mission, it means that this is probably a life-or-death mission!

The contact person nodded straightforwardly, "Yes, we are not the only ones eyeing this batch of goods. There are many various forces from the Middle East and other regions mixed in. Your task is to intercept this batch of goods and then protect them safely. it."

Logan and the others nodded solemnly.

They know that the Middle East is a place full of dangers, with all parties involved fighting each other.

At this time, Maika asked: "Do you have any more information, such as the list of forces coveting this batch of goods?"

If they could know what forces would intervene, they might be able to take precautions in advance, or at least make more preparations.

The contact person nodded, "At present, we have found out the identities of some forces, but it is not comprehensive. There may be many people who are hiding deeper."

Although Hydra's intelligence network is developed and its personnel are spread across almost every industry on the planet, not everything is clear.

After thinking for a moment, the contact person added: "It is currently known that SHIELD and the Avengers may appear in this incident, and they also seem to have a strong interest in this batch of goods."

"In addition, there is an unknown organization that may also be involved. We have very limited information about them. What is known is that one of the people on the other side has the ability to manipulate magnetic fields, and all of his subordinates also have supernatural powers. Maybe a mutant, maybe a superhuman."

The contact person spoke slowly and said calmly: "However, no matter what kind of people they are, they are your enemies. Don't be merciful just because they are the same kind. Being merciful will only increase the risk of failure in your mission."

Logan and the others nodded gloomily. They naturally knew that in the face of such a task, as long as they were not one of their own, they would try their best to solve it.

But what makes Logan curious is, what is it that can make SHIELD and the Avengers tempted?

As for that unknown force, what is the situation? Is it a mutant organization or a team of superhumans?

But what is certain is that since those guys can get involved in this dispute, their strength is destined not to be underestimated.

The contact person looked at everyone and said, "There are several rooms here for you to rest. You can make some repairs here. We will start taking action later. I hope everything goes well for you."

After saying that, he led a few people out of the library, entered the room on the other side, and turned around to leave.

And Logan and others walked into the room and took a look around.

The house has a relaxing living room and a sleeping room.

After simple repairs, everyone met in the living room. Logan took out the dry food and water he had brought and distributed them.

After hastily solving the problem of eating, Victor threw a bag of weapons on the table.

Everyone opened their backpacks in tacit agreement, took out their usual weapons and equipment, and began to sort them out.

Victor brought the least, just a pistol and a few spare magazines.

While arranging the pistol, he couldn't help complaining: "The guys we have to face are SHIELD and the Avengers, and a mysterious organization who doesn't know what it is. These guns are too redundant to face those people. , unless you can replace it all with artillery."

The level of danger on this trip is unimaginable. No one without special abilities would dare to participate in this dispute. In a battle of this level, firearms can provide minimal support. Even a rifle with powerful firepower may not be able to be effective. Combat power, not to mention the only pistols these people had, the most useful things Victor thought were useful were a few grenades.

"It's better than not being prepared at all."

Marcos carefully checked his equipment and brought the most ammunition while ensuring flexibility.

In his opinion, even if enough ammunition cannot kill the enemy, it can still suppress the enemy until he cannot lift his head.

He does not have a self-healing factor like Victor, and he will really die if he is seriously injured.

On the other side, Maika wiped his gun and said without raising his head: "Be safe and take all measures. This matter is related to the future of the entire shelter. We can only succeed, not fail. We cannot suffer the consequences of failure." bear."

His voice was unusually deep, and he felt like he was giving it a try.

Marcus nodded repeatedly, fully agreeing with what Maika said.

Now most of the people on their farm have been captured by Straker. Once the mission fails, the guy will definitely execute all the mutants without hesitation.

At that moment, there really was no hope for their shelter.

Didi didi.

While everyone was chatting, Logan's communicator suddenly sounded.

He picked it up and saw that it was a call from the farm.

After connecting the communicator and listening to the report over there, Logan's eyes flashed instantly.

Everyone looked at Logan's expression, wondering what news could make him so excited?

After hanging up the phone, Logan took a deep breath and said excitedly: "Good news, the hideout of Hydra has been discovered on the farm, and we are currently preparing to carry out rescue."

Upon hearing the news, everyone's eyes flashed instantly.

Only Maika frowned and said, "Don't be so reckless!"

He glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Now the main combat power of the farm is here. The people who are left behind on the farm are limited in strength. Breaking into the Hydra base is tantamount to striking an egg against a stone."

Facing Maika's strong refusal, Logan frowned, glanced at Maika, and said solemnly: "No, I don't think we can place all our hopes on Hydra will keep its promise and let the people on the farm prepare for rescue. , even if we fail, we can still use the goods as bargaining chips, and Straker will definitely not dare to act rashly. "

However, in the face of Logan's words, Maika still sternly refused: "This is too dangerous, and it may push other people into danger!"

Looking at the two people at war with each other, Moira frowned and interrupted their argument: "Since you can't convince the other party, let's vote."

Several people were stunned for a moment. After looking at each other, they nodded and agreed to the voting resolution.

"Hands up in support of Rogan."

Moira spoke slowly, looking at them.

Victor raised his hand without hesitation. He strongly agreed with the idea of ​​rescuing people.

Marcus looked at Mika and then at Logan. After thinking for a moment, he slowly raised his hand and said, "I also think it's a good idea to save people."

Finally, Moira also raised her hands, "I support Logan too."

Hydra guys are fickle, who knows they will really let people go once the goods are obtained?

Only by rescuing people can we completely get rid of the threat of Hydra.

Seeing the results of the crushing nature, Maika frowned, and after a moment he said solemnly: "Since you all chose to act, I also support your choice, but you must tell them to be careful and evacuate immediately after rescuing people. "

Logan nodded and conveyed the decision to the farm.

As soon as I hung up the phone, there was a knock on the door.

"This matter must be kept strictly confidential. No one should tell anyone outside." Logan looked back at everyone and warned.

After seeing everyone nodding, he opened the door.

The contact person was standing outside and handed over a bunch of keys without saying a word, "The car is outside, let's go."

Logan nodded and drove everyone to the interception location.
