That night, a melodious ringtone suddenly sounded …
"Molo?" Sei Itō picked up the phone and put it to his ear with a smile.
"Hi, sure. Erm … can you come to Yackley Lake?" On the phone, Lady Stormsword said hesitantly.
"Hmm?" Sei Itō pretended to be confused as he let out a low groan.
"Today, our school was attacked by the Americans. Many students were taken away by them. However, what's more worrying is that they captured the professor …" Lady Stormsword said in a low voice.
"If we don't handle this well, you, me, and all the other mutants on Earth will die." Then, there was a slight pause. Then, there was a sound of heavy breathing from the phone. Lady Stormsword's voice sounded again.
"The professor and the students are at Yackley Lake?" Sei Itō pretended to be confused.
"Yes, under Yackley Lake. So, I want you to help me rescue the professor," Lady Stormsword said in a low voice.
"I understand. I'll go to Yackley Lake right away. However, I won't be doing this for free. Remember to pay me after this. Yes, you understand," Sei Itō agreed without hesitation.
"If everything goes well, I can accompany you for a day," Lady Stormsword replied in an annoyed tone.
"With that, I'm instantly filled with motivation! Well, I won't say much, I'll go first. "Itsunari joked.
"Okay, remember to give me a call when you arrive at Yackley Lake. I'll tell you the rendezvous point," Lady Stormsword said.
"Understood." Sei Itō said and then hung up the phone. He activated his ability and rushed to Yackley Lake's location overnight.
On the other side, in a dense forest. Lady Stormsword held the phone in front of her. She looked at the phone that had been restored to its original interface. Suddenly, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
"Molo?" At this time, Jean walked up to Lady Stormsword and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing." Lady Stormsword shook her head as she put away her phone.
Gin Grey didn't doubt Lady Stormsword's answer, so she didn't mind. She nodded and walked to the plane parked at the side. She bumped into Wolverine, who happened to get off the plane.
What happened next was basically the same as the original …
The scene returned to Sei Itō.
After a long and arduous journey, Ito Sei, who had telekinesis and teleportation, arrived at the forest around Lake Yakeli, which had a huge dam, in the early morning of the same day. He used Wood Release to create a simple house and lived in it for the rest of the night. After dawn, he took out his phone and dialed Lady Stormsword's number.
"It's me," Lady Stormsword said through the phone.
"I'm here," Sei Itō said concisely.
"Wait there first. We'll be there soon. Also, we'll be there soon. See if there's any open space nearby. We'll meet up there, "Lady Stormsword replied.
"Okay." Sei Itō agreed, then cut off the phone and used Telekinesis to fly into the air, searching for open space suitable for large planes to land and certain locations that match the original story.
At the same time, on the X-Men plane.
"Who is it?" Gin Grey looked at Lady Stormsword, who was piloting the supersonic plane, and asked in a low voice.
"A friend, I think he may be able to help us," Lady Stormsword replied softly without turning her head.
Gin Grey turned her head and looked at Wolverine beside her when she heard this. They remained silent and continued to sit down, assisting Lady Stormsword in piloting the supersonic plane.
After more than ten minutes, the supersonic plane flew over Lake Yakeli and landed in a vast open space covered with ice and snow. The moment the plane stopped and the engine was turned off, Sei Itō's figure instantly appeared outside the window in front of the cabin. He smiled and waved at Lady Stormsword, Gin Grey, and Wolverine, who were shocked by his behavior, and then flashed into the cabin.
"Whoosh!" Almost at the same time as Sei Itō appeared. Wolverine immediately flicked the steel claws in his hand, got up and waved his arm to cut Sei Itō's body.
Sei Itō, who had just appeared, flashed again and appeared behind Wolverine, and pressed a finger on his lumbar vertebrae. Wolverine's eyes immediately widened, and he fell to his knees on the ground with his limbs spread out.
"Bang!" The contact between the knee and the metal made a heavy muffled sound.
"Gin, stop. He is not an enemy. "Lady Stormsword, who was unfastening her seat belt, shouted to Gin, who was about to use Telekinesis to attack.
"Long time no see, Dr. Gin, Magneto, Mystique. And Mr. Wolverine, who seems to have a bad temper. " Sei Itō, who kicked Wolverine to the ground, moved his eyes and glanced at Gin Grey, Magneto, and Mystique, who were sitting at the rear of the cabin, and smiled.
"It has indeed been a long time." Magneto got up and said with a smile on his face.
At this time, Logan, who had a strong recovery ability, finally recovered from Sei Itō's attack. He gritted his teeth and swept towards Sei Itō's calf again. Sei Itō, who sensed this change, did not hesitate and continued to use Instant Transmission to appear behind Wolverine and kicked him in the back of the neck.
"Logan!" Lady Stormsword shouted.
Hearing Stormsword's voice, Wolverine, who had recovered again, had to suppress the discomfort in his heart. He stood up and shook his head, making a "Kacha, Kacha" sound while staring at Sei Itō fiercely, looking like he wanted to eat him.
"The newcomer on your side?" Ito Mori glanced at Magneto and Mystique with a faint smile. His skin was the same dark blue as Mystique's, and the surface was engraved with strange totem patterns. He was wearing dark clothes that looked like a circus costume with some sequins on the surface. He was thin, and his teeth were a little strange, like beast teeth. His eyes were also yellow, and he had messy seaweed-like hair, and a long pointed tail like the legendary demon swinging behind him, said to Magneto and Mystique.
Sei Itō knew the identity of this young man. He was one of the future X-Men called Nightwalker, Blue Devil, etc. He was the son of Mystique and Azazel who was deceived by Azazel, one of the oldest mutants who had lived for thousands of years. His ability was the same as his father Azazel's, Instant Transmission.
Magneto reached out and pointed to Stormsword, motioning her to speak.
"His name is Kurt Wagner, the person the Professor asked us to find," Stormsword replied.
Sei Itō nodded slightly and looked at Mystique again with a meaningful look. The latter's body stiffened when Sei Itō looked at her, and she looked to the side and strengthened her movement of leaning on Magneto's shoulder to cover up the sudden uneasiness in her heart.
Fortunately, Sei Itō had no interest in exposing other people's secrets, so after teasing Mystique a few times with his eyes, he put Kurt Wagner aside and discussed the next invasion with Stormsword, Gin Gretel, Magneto, Mystique, and Wolverine.
Sei Itō, who had no intention of changing the original plan, watched the whole process. He did not express any opinions. So in the end, the original executor of the plan was still Mystique. She would disguise herself as Wolverine and sneak into the underground base of Yackley Lake from the flood discharge, then use her most familiar spy infiltration method to gain control of the dam and open the door for others to enter.
The plan was carried out very smoothly. It didn't take long for Mystique's communication to come from the plane, and then Stormsword, Magneto, Gin Gretel, Sei Itō, and Kurt Wagner got off the plane and invaded the dam with the help of the Thunderstorm released by Stormsword and went straight to the Grand Central Control Room.
"Did you find it?" Magneto, who was the first to enter the control room through the broken alloy door, asked.
"A large part of the dam's energy is gathered in this room." Mystique turned around and pulled up a schematic map of the room to show everyone.
"Brainwave Enhancer," Gin Gretel said.
"Yes," Mystique echoed.
"Can you turn it off here?" Stormsword asked.
"No," Mystique replied without even turning her head.
"Hurry, there's no time," Magneto whispered.
"Let's go together," Gin Gretel said.
Magneto stopped what he was about to do and slowly looked at Mystique, who also turned her head to look at him. Obviously, they were already thinking about Professor X and the Brainwave Enhancer at this time, just like in the original work.
"Oh my God, children." At this time, Stormsword saw the contents displayed on the small screen on one side and whispered. Then she turned her head and looked at Kurt Wagner and said, "Wagner, can you stay with me?"
Then she turned her head to look at Sei Itō, and her meaning was self-evident.
"Okay." Kurt Wagner nodded and agreed. Likewise. A smile also appeared on Ito Sei's face.
When no one was paying attention, Wolverine walked to a surveillance screen and stared at the tall and fat white man on the screen who was walking somewhere accompanied by two soldiers without saying a word.
The old man was Wolverine's creator, William Stryker, one of the higher-ups in the United States.
"Where are they?" Stormsword asked.
"One floor below," Mystique replied.
"Okay, let's go save the children and then meet at the Brainwave Enhancer," Stormsword decided.
"Okay. I'll go find Scott and the professor, "Gin Grey said.
When no one was paying attention, Wolverine took off the radio headset and ran out of the room silently.
"Can you do it alone?" Stormsword asked.
"No problem." Gin Grey nodded affirmatively.
"Where did Logan go?" Stormsword frowned and asked when she finally remembered Logan.
"He's gone." Gin Grey turned around and sighed when she saw the radio headset placed on the table.
Then they left Wolverine alone. They left the central control room together and divided into two groups according to the action plan they had just discussed.
After a series of twists and turns, Sei Itō, Stormsword, and Kurt Wagner arrived at the next floor of the dam.
"Help!" At this moment, a young boy's voice sounded in the corridor.
"Listen," Stormsword reminded softly.
"Save us, let me out …" More voices were heard.
The three followed the voice to a dead end and saw the mutated children imprisoned below through the reinforced glass window under their feet.
"Kimberly," Stormsword called out as she squatted down.
"Stormsword," the children called out. "Help us out!"
"We're here," Stormsword said as she got up and gestured to Sei Itō and Kurt Wagner.
The two who received the order didn't waste any time and used their teleportation ability to enter the sealed room where the children were imprisoned. Seeing the two people who suddenly appeared, and one of them looked strange, the children were obviously shocked. However, they were mutated humans and had seen many strange things, so they quickly calmed down and allowed Sei Itō and Kurt Wagner to transport them out.
Because of Sei Itō, the speed of the rescue was much faster than before. In less than a minute, all the captured children were rescued.
"Can I trouble you to send them to your country first?" Lady Stormsword looked at the young mutants around her and turned her head to look at Ito Sei.
"Of course," Sei Itō smiled. Then, with a thought, all the mutated humans were sent into the Rubik's Cube world and temporarily placed on an isolated island with beautiful scenery.
"Where is he?" Kurt Wagner asked in surprise.
"Temporarily sent to a safe place," Sei Itō said as he exchanged a glance with Stormsword.
"Okay, we'll talk about this later. Let's go to the Brainwave Enhancement Machine first," Stormsword said.
In this regard, Sei Itō and Kurt Wagner naturally didn't have any objections. They followed Stormsword to the Brainwave Enhancement Machine. With the speed of the three, they quickly arrived at the sealed door of the Brainwave Enhancement Machine. The moment they arrived, Gin Gree also appeared at the scene with Scott, who was struggling to walk.
"Stormsword," Scott called out.
"Gin, are you okay?" Stormsword nodded to Scott and looked at Gin Gree, who had a scar on her brow bone.
"I'm fine," Gin Gree replied.
"What happened?" Stormsword pointed at the door of the Brainwave Enhancement Machine and asked.
"The professor and a mutated human are inside. He has fallen into some kind of illusion." Gin Gree, who used telepathy to see the situation on the other side of the door, explained. Then, her expression changed as she whispered, "Oh, God, the Brainwave Enhancement Machine has been reversed. The target is not a mutated human this time."
"Then who is it?" Stormsword, who didn't react, asked.
"A human," Gin Gree replied solemnly.
Instantly, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem. However, compared to Gin Gree and Scott, Stormsword clearly had other thoughts in her mind. This could be vaguely seen from the way she looked at Sei Itō.
"Heh …" Sei Itō, who vaguely understood Stormsword's conflicting thoughts, chuckled silently.
