1610. Open Strife and Veiled Strife
"There's actually such a powerful telepath. It looks like there really is a problem with the Hellfire Club … and that Tang Yu …" Charles Xavier said with a frown.
"I've already said that in the future I saw, it was the Hellfire Club's Tang Yu who developed the sentinel robot and then completely lost control, causing the world to be completely destroyed. If it wasn't for Lucas Bishop who developed the time machine at the last moment, then you guys would have let history repeat itself, "Clarice said bitterly.
"We did find some Hellfire Club members who escaped during the turmoil. Although there were only a few words, it does prove that they had a secret plan called the Doomsday Battle Plan!" Oliver said with a face full of worry.
"It looks like we can't relax our investigation on Tang Yu! But what's the situation with that group of people? "Charles said as he looked up at the helicopter in the sky.
Clarice said, "Just now, the person who can teleport saved this guy who can manipulate metal, but it seems that he couldn't teleport too far with people, so he fell into the sea. Let's wait for him to come over. "
Whoosh! Suddenly, a black man appeared beside Charles. He wrung the water from his clothes as he came to Charles and said, "You're Charles Xavier? Our boss wants to see you. Oh, and you, the leader of the 'Men in Black' [Note 1], Mr. Oliver. "
The fat Oliver adjusted his glasses, pointed at the helicopter in the sky and said, "You actually know our name?! Also, you're a mutant. How come I never knew that there was a mutant organization in the US government? "
The black man glanced at him and said, "Now you know."
At this time, the helicopter in the sky began to descend and landed on the flight deck of their coast guard ship. Mr. Oliver walked over with Charles and Clarice. They only saw an officer wearing a camouflage uniform walking down from the plane, followed by two people. One of them was holding a special sniper rifle and had a cold expression, while the other was a burly man with a round waist and a full beard. What was somewhat conspicuous was that his fingernails were abnormally sharp.
"You're Mr. Oliver, right? Nice to meet you. My name is William Stryker, the commanding officer of this group. " The officer walked over and shook hands with Oliver. Then he said to Charles, "Charles Xavier, an expert on mutants and a powerful telepath. I've been to your lectures at Oxford University."
"William Stryker? Your father should be an inspector in the CIA, but I heard that you should be fighting in Vietnam right now? "Mr. Oliver asked with a frown.
"I'm also a soldier now." William Stryker smiled and suddenly turned his head to Charles and waved his hand and said, "Oh! It is not polite to pry into the minds of others, Mr. Charles. "
The burly man behind him immediately took a step forward and threateningly flashed his fingernails. Charles wiped his forehead, looking a little dizzy.
"Tell me where you came from! Why are you involved in this matter? "Oliver asked.
"I'm more curious as to why the men in black came here. You shouldn't have intervened in this matter." William Stryker asked rhetorically.
"We are just tracking down the unrest in the Hellfire Club a few days ago! It is said that Sebastian Shaw and Tang Yu are deeply involved in it, so we want to ask him. "Charles Xavier said.
"Just a simple question, you have to come all the way to Buenos Aires? Hehe, this lie is not very clever. But it doesn't matter. I can also tell you that our purpose is also Sebastian Shaw and Tang Yu. "William Stryker said.
"Then what identity are you investigating him with?" Oliver asked.
William Stryker took out an ID and said, "We are a department under the CIA, known as the X Team. We specialize in dealing with dangerous events that the government can't solve. You see, we are colleagues. But having said that, we are actually under the direct leadership of the Department of Defense in terms of administration. As for you asking what identity we are investigating the Hellfire Club, then my answer is that without identity, all our actions will not be recognized by the US government. So, if you want to verify our identity, I suggest you go to the Secretary of Defense himself. "
"X Team? The five of you who appeared here, except for you, are all Mutants! Are you the Mutants' army? "Charles asked.
"Five people? Isn't it four? "Oliver asked.
"The one who piloted the helicopter was also a Mutant, a woman, and also a telepath!" Charles said in a deep voice.
"In that case, are you here to cooperate with us?" Oliver said to Stryker.
"Cooperation? Hehe. " William Stryker sneered and said, "When we were killing people on the Vietnam battlefield, you were still playing in the mud in kindergarten! Why would I want to cooperate with a group of nerds? I'm here for this person, and I want to take him away. "
As he spoke, he pointed at the unconscious Eric Lansher.
"This is impossible! This person is an important clue! "Charles Xavier immediately objected.
"Isn't it important to us?" William Stryker stared at him coldly and said slowly.
"This matter is not negotiable!" Charles refused decisively.
"Don't say it so firmly, young man … otherwise, what will happen … I don't know." Stryker said coldly.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Oliver quickly tried to smooth things over and said, "Okay! Since we are all on the same side, don't be like this! Stryker … "Saying that, he glanced at Stryker's shoulder, but he didn't see the epaulet at all.
"Colonel." Stryker saw through his mind and replied.
"Well then, Colonel Stryker, our investigation is directly and officially authorized by the CIB, so at the official level, we should take this person away. Unless you can get the Secretary of Defense to personally order it … so, you see … "Oliver said calmly.
William Stryker's face became gloomier and gloomier. He glared at the black man who could teleport and shouted, "Trash!"
The black man was immediately silent, bowing his head and saying nothing, obviously very afraid of William Stryker. Then, Stryker put on his sunglasses and said to Oliver and Charles, "That's it, remember, this is not over!"
After speaking, he took a group of people onto the helicopter and left directly.
"In addition to this powerful Mutant who can control metal, there is another Team X, things are getting more and more complicated …" Charles said as he rubbed the corner of his eyes.
"It doesn't matter, Charles. What we have to do is to grasp the core of the whole thing! And this core is the originator of the entire Sentinel Plan! The culprit who destroyed the world- Tang Yu! "A fierce light appeared in the corner of Clarice's eyes.
[Note 1]: This man in black is not the man in black of Will Smith. It is an organization that appears in X-Men: First Battle and belongs to the CIB. It is a secret organization that specializes in dealing with Mutants, but its methods are relatively mild, mainly to protect Mutants. The name of this organization did not really appear in the movie, but it was confirmed in the behind-the-scenes setting of the movie.
