Mindy, Laura, and David were assembling the Lego Group's latest Bugatti model in their little secret base.
This was the flagship of the Lego Group, and it was not cheap. The bricks were sold for about four hundred dollars.
With David's family conditions, he could not afford such Lego bricks to play with. David's family conditions were very ordinary. His mother died early, and his father was just a very ordinary person without any outstanding abilities. He worked as a simple worker in a factory, and his monthly salary was only a little more than three thousand dollars.
This could be seen from the fact that David's family lived in an old house in Brooklyn, and his clothes were generally those cheap clothes bought from Walmart. He was indeed a poor child.
However, poor children also had a chance to turn things around. Back then, because he watched Nightcrawler's video, David ordered a one-piece, tight-fitting diving suit from the Internet, put on a mask, and walked the streets as a masked hero.
This was a turning point in his life. Not only did he meet his idol, Nightcrawler, for the first time, but he also met his master, Kendo, who accepted him as his last disciple.
After that, he trained hard while carrying out his masked hero career. Although he could not become a superhero like Tony Stark who could save the world, he could at least save the community and the park. David felt that this was not bad.
In particular, he also formed the Justice League, which made David feel a little more confident. He felt that he was omnipotent, as if he had really become a superhero. At least, he formed a superhero league. It was like an organization like the Avengers. Although the Avengers was only a second-rate superhero organization, it was still a superhero organization after all, wasn't it?
Now, David had acknowledged the Transcendent Twin sisters as his big sister and became their underling. Although he was their underling, it was still okay. They would not ask him to do anything too excessive. At most, they would ask him to run errands and buy supper for them.
There was also a reward for being their underling. For example, he could now receive at least two or three sets of high-end Lego bricks that he could not afford to play with in the past.
The cheap ones were 99 US dollars, while the expensive ones were more than 200 US dollars. His family didn't have enough spare money to play with such expensive toy blocks. With her father's salary, she had to pay for all kinds of insurance, pension, unemployment benefits, and land taxes. She also had to pay for her own school fees, household expenses, and buy clothes and other trivial things. So, the 3,000 dollars couldn't be saved at all. Even if it was Christmas, her father wouldn't be willing to spend 200 dollars on a gift for her. For their family, a gift of 200 USD was a little too expensive.
But now, David felt that it was very good. He was able to build Legos with Mindy and Laura, two beautiful girls. This feeling was great.
Especially after their errand boy, Sam, was gone, this feeling was even better.
Every time he played with Mindy and Laura, Sam, who claimed to be a rising star, would always reveal a murderous look. Zhao Hai didn't know what went wrong with that kid.
Speaking of Sam, David recalled that he hadn't seen him for a long time.
"By the way, it seems that I haven't seen Sam for a long time. Where did he go?" David also raised this question.
"When did you start to care about him? If you have the time to care about him, why don't you give me the gear part in your hand? I still need a gear here. "Mindy, who was putting together the model, avoided the topic of David's question.
Mindy didn't know how to tell David. Could she say that Sam went to an alien planet and then went to a super cool interstellar school? David would be so envious of her.
"He went to boarding school, and it may take several years before he comes back." Laura answered David's question in a concise and comprehensive manner, and from a certain point of view, what she said was the truth. Of course, this truth was not the complete truth. For example, this boarding school was on another planet in the Milky Way.
Just as the three of them were chatting and putting together Legos, Laura, who had the bloodline of Wolverine, suddenly moved her ears.
"Wait, I heard an unusual sound. It seems that there are a lot of people coming from our place. Their footsteps were heavy, and it sounded like they were heavily armed. If they weren't fully equipped with weapons, then this group of people would be a group of super fat people. There are at least 50 of these super fat people! "
Laura had the bloodline of Wolverine, and Wolverine Logen had an ability, which was super hearing.
Wolverine's ears were very sharp. Laura felt that it was true. Sebastian had arranged for 50 heavily armed mutant warriors to attack their secret base.
Sebastian was going to teach these little kids who destroyed his sales channel a lesson, and then hang them all outside.
"Get down." Laura, who heard the unusual sound, shouted at Mindy and David, and at the same time pressed the two under her body. As soon as the three of them lay down, a violent explosion came.
A mutant warrior had already used a rifle grenade to blow up their door from afar. The rest of the Mutant Warriors rushed in through the thick fog caused by the explosion.
… …
White Queen Emma felt that Sebastian was becoming a little more and more unreasonable.
This guy didn't even want to let go of children now. Was he psychopathic? Or maybe he had been in a high position for a long time, so he had lost a little bit of normal feelings and thinking.
No matter what, in White Queen Emma's opinion, Sebastian, who vented his anger on a bunch of kids, wasn't a magnanimous person.
Especially now, the Hellfire Club was going downhill. Was it appropriate for her to follow Sebastian? White Queen Emma thought. In fact, the actual leader of the X-Men, Professor Charles, had sent her many invitations, hoping that she could join the X-Men.
Especially now that the younger generation of X-Men had established their own country in Tuvalu, and now the X-Beauty Potion was sold all over the world. It could be said that the new mutants of the new era were rising. This group of people was really changing the world! Not like the people in the Hellfire Club like Sebastian, who were still dreaming and wanted to rely on their own power and prestige to continue to act like a tyrant. Those people were really a group of stubborn old antiques.
Although White Queen Emma was a member of the Hellfire Club, she still couldn't help but want to say this.
So when Sebastian asked her where she was going today, Emma didn't answer. Because Sebastian guessed right, she did want to find Laser Eyes Scott, but more accurately, she was not only looking for Laser Eyes Scott, but also to observe the X-Men.
Professor Charles had invited her to join the X-Men several times, and from the current situation, Emma was still very tempted. Emma didn't think she was a bad person. At least she had never done anything like rape or pillage.
So if she wanted to join the X-Men, she didn't think there was any problem from a conscience point of view. She could be regarded as having a clear conscience.
Of course, if she joined the X-Men and could get Scott, that would be even better. Laser Eyes Scott was really her type, but there was one troublesome thing. That is, he and Professor Charles' favorite student, Dr. Jean Grey, are in a relationship, and it seems that their relationship is quite strong.
I have to think of a way to separate the two of them, Emma thought. At the same time, she prepared to do so.
Through various inquiries, she learned that Scott had a rival in love, Logen, who was called Wolverine.
Logen always wanted to poach Scott and take Dr. Jean away. White Queen Emma raised her hands and feet in favor of Logen's actions. She now very much hoped that Logen would take Jean Grey away, and it would be best if the two of them could live together.
So today, she said that she was in contact with the X-Men, but in fact, she mainly asked Wolverine Logen out to talk to him and see if they could join forces. She took Scott and he took Jean Grey. In this case, both of them would be happy, so why not?
Wolverine Logen was willing to meet White Queen Emma today because Professor Charles wanted to persuade Emma to join the X-Men.
As the mainstay of the X-Men, Wolverine Logen naturally has an obligation to help persuade Emma. Of course, Logen is better at persuading others with physics, not with his mouth.
