The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics
#277 - sneak into
Although this aircraft doesn't have an official name yet, its capabilities are already very similar to the X-Jet from the main universe. One can't help but admire Beast Hank for being one of the top intellectuals in the Marvel Universe, able to put together a powerful aircraft in a limited environment.
Sitting obediently in the aircraft, Yang Le, bored during the journey, started playing 'See You Again' in his mind. Although it was a bit unlucky, even if they really crashed, no one would die on this flight.
At worst, he could just fight his way out of hell, giving Mephisto a hard elbow.
Perhaps to get into the zone, even Gambit was unusually quiet on the way, constantly playing with his cards. In his words, it was his warm-up, to prevent his fingers from getting stiff later.
The others were also using their own methods to adjust their conditions. The X-Men in this universe were still novices, so it was normal to be nervous before a mission.
"We're here," Beast said, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose with one hand. "Prepare to land."
Through the front window of the aircraft, Yang Le could see that they were landing in a forest. Saying 'landing' was actually more like hovering at low altitude, as there was no suitable landing environment here.
"There's no open space nearby, you'll have to rely on yourselves," Beast said, looking back at the others. "It's all trees around here, good luck."
The aircraft was only three or four meters above the ground. A parachute was definitely out of the question at this height, and even if it were possible, it wouldn't work, because parachutes don't have stealth capabilities. Such a large target would easily be spotted.
"It's okay, Hank," Yang Le said, unbuckling his seatbelt and standing at the hatch. "I'll figure something out, you guys jump after me."
After Yang Le finished speaking, he immediately jumped out of the aircraft. A large tree extended its branches to catch Yang Le in mid-air, gently placing him on the ground.
The other X-Men, seeing this, didn't hesitate and jumped out of the aircraft one after another, and Yang Le controlled the tree to catch them one by one.
"This is the first time I've been hugged by a tree," Gambit said.
"We landed safely, Hank," Scott notified Hank using the communication device.
"Roger that," Hank replied. "I'll be standing by in the vicinity."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hank maneuvered the aircraft into the sky and disappeared in a short while.
After watching Hank leave, Scott finally said, "Let's go."
According to the coordinates sent by Mystique, even in a very dense forest, the group could easily find the way forward.
There was no conversation along the way, because everyone was very vigilant, not knowing if there were patrolling enemies nearby. They were basically proceeding step by step, cautiously moving forward.
Yang Le was a little helpless. These ordinary plants were too low-level. Even if Swampfire possessed the ability to communicate with plants, he couldn't get any useful information from them.
Although there were some bumps along the way, the group still arrived at their destination smoothly, a forest that looked no different from any other place.
"Raven's target is ahead. The forest in front of us is a layer of camouflage," Scott said, retracting the device.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Remy asked, puzzled.
Jean explained, "This barrier with camouflage will trigger an alarm as soon as we pass through it. We need to contact Raven first to have her turn off the base's alarm, otherwise we won't be able to sneak in."
Scott put his hand on the communication device on his ear, contacting Mystique Raven.
"Mystique, Mystique, this is Cyclops, please respond, please respond."
Because Scott was the leader, the communication was handled by him, but everyone was equipped with communication devices, allowing everyone to know the situation as soon as possible.
What was unsettling was that about a minute passed after Scott finished speaking without any response.
"Mystique, Mystique." Helpless, Scott had to repeat what he had just said again, but unfortunately there was still no response.
"Damn it," Gambit said, his face pale, cursing incessantly.
Jean placed her hand on Scott's shoulder, comforting her boyfriend, although her own face wasn't very good either.
Seeing everyone's low mood, Yang Le had to stand up to encourage them. After all, this team was still very young, and Yang Le, who was falsifying his age, was actually the oldest in the team.
"Relax, everyone, you have to believe in the abilities of our teammates. Since Mystique has the ability to disguise herself as anyone, even if she's really exposed, it's not impossible for her to escape."
"Habit is right," Scott, as the captain, cheered up immediately. "Don't always think of the worst. We don't have time to stand here like fools. There are still many compatriots waiting for us to save them."
"Looks like we have to choose a frontal assault," Gambit flipped his wrist, and a deck of cards appeared in his hand, but Yang Le stopped him.
The newest novel is first published on Liu_9__Shu_Ba!
"I have a better way." As Yang Le spoke, he removed the clothes from his body, and Swampfire's true appearance was displayed in front of everyone.
Seeing Yang Le's true face, everyone just flickered their eyes, and there were no other changes. Speaking of strangeness, Beast Hank was actually not far behind.
"My body is no different from plants," Yang Le placed his hand on his chest. "I can drill into the ground like a plant, and cross this barrier without triggering the alarm. Once inside, I'll figure out another way."
"Improvisation? I like it." Gambit whistled lightly, actually he was just easing the atmosphere, not many people like unexpected things.
Scott thought for a whole time, and said helplessly: "It can only be like this, remember not to interrupt the contact, Habit, save your life in the first time when you encounter danger, only if you live can you have a future."
"I will." Yang Le nodded, twisting his body and drilling into the ground in the blink of an eye.
"Let's find a place to hide and wait for Habit's news." After Scott finished speaking, he took everyone away in the opposite direction. After all, this is the edge of the barrier, and it would be bad if a team of people came out and found them.
Not to mention Scott and his party, Yang Le, who drilled into the ground, was moving forward at a not slow speed. Swampfire, who entered adulthood after flowering, has been strengthened in all aspects. If the original tunneling was walking, Yang Le is now running.
After traveling for about 300 meters, Yang Le stretched out a root and poked out of the soil, disguising it as a common wildflower and connecting it to his vision, so that he could obtain external information without exposing himself.
This is also the ability that Yang Le came up with himself. After all, even if Swampfire is broken into a pile of mud, he can be resurrected at will on a certain piece of debris. It is not a big deal to change the physiological structure.
