"I will make my own judgment."
Logan stared at the weirdo and spoke in a deep voice.
"Believe it or not."
The weirdo obviously didn't intend to say any more. After he finished speaking, he turned around and ran into the woods, and disappeared in a short while.
Logan did not stop her, and even stopped Laura who wanted to chase her.
"Why don't you catch the sheep thief?"
Laura looked at the direction where the weirdo disappeared and couldn't help but question Logan.
She could clearly smell that the scent of this strange man was very similar to the smell left in the sheep pen. Even if they were not the same person, they were definitely related.
"He's not that bad yet. There's no need to kill him."
Logan lowered his head and touched Laura's head, smiled, and added: "And he will never come to steal sheep again."
After what happened last time, Logan was able to guarantee that those weirdos would never enter Maca's shelter again.
After saying that, he looked in the direction where the weirdo disappeared, his eyes full of thought.
He naturally knew that he could not fully trust Maca, and he had to consider Maca's tasks and arrangements himself.
However, he would not blindly believe a weirdo in the woods, not to mention that these weirdos obviously had conflicts with Maca, and their words could not be viewed objectively either.
As for who was right and who was wrong between them, Logan couldn't tell at the moment. All he could do was wait and see.
However, compared to the question of whether Maca can be trusted, Logan is more curious about the identities of these weirdos and why they came to him specifically, and reminds himself not to trust Maca.
And from his tone, this weirdo, or this weirdo's father, knows Wolverine, so did their father have any connection with him? In
addition, the appearance of these weirdos, blue skin and lush hair, always made him think of one person unconsciously.
Logan doesn't know whether these weirdos are related to that man, and he also wants to find out what their connection with Maca is.
But there are no clues to these questions.
After some fruitless thinking, Logan shook his head helplessly and simply gave up these messy thoughts. He looked up at the sky and patted Laura's little head.
"Let's go, it's almost time for dinner."
The canteen in the shelter has a unified opening time. Unless they are on a mission, the canteen will not be responsible if they miss meal time and go hungry.
"Um."
Laura reached out and grabbed Logan's finger, and accompanied Logan back to the farm, but she was obviously very curious about the strange man and would look back from time to time.
On the way, Logan remembered something and said to Laura: "Don't tell anyone about what happened just now."
The weirdo came to him alone and knew his true identity. Once this news spread, Logan was worried that it would cause some bad effects.
After all, because of the failure of the mission, Maca already had some grudge against him. If he knew that he had private dealings with some weirdos with whom he had had conflicts, Logan believed that Maca's grudge against him would be even deeper.
Laura looked at Logan, and although she was a little confused, she nodded obediently.
Logan felt relieved, holding Laura's little hand, and returned to the shelter as the sun set. The two figures, one big and one small, were pulled far away by the red sunset.
After finishing his meal in the cafeteria, Logan returned to the cabin and went upstairs to find Charles.
Charles was preparing for class patiently at his desk because he had to go to class tomorrow. When he saw Logan come in, he put down his pen and raised his reading glasses. "It seems that your trip with Laura was not peaceful. Did anything happen?"
Charles knew that if something hadn't happened, Logan would not disturb him while he was preparing lessons.
Logan nodded and sat down next to Charles' desk. "In the woods, we ran into the weirdos who came to the farm to steal sheep again."
"oh?"
Charles was a little surprised, "I didn't expect them to dare to show up. Did you fight?"
"No."
Logan shook his head. "We talked for a while. He seemed to know my identity as Wolverine. After confirming my identity, he said something to me."
As he spoke, Logan told Charles about his encounter with the weirdo.
"I guess this weirdo might have some relationship with Beast Hank, or even be the weirdo's father."
Logan told Charles his guess.
After all, that guy's body shape is too similar to Beast Hank, and he also knows his identity as Wolverine, which also means that the other party knows him. These information inevitably make Logan have such speculation.
After listening to Logan's story, Charles couldn't help but nodded, "Maybe it was really him."
"Hank should not have died at the time. He was working in a government department as a senior executive. If I remember correctly, his position should be the Director of the Department of Mutant Affairs. But he disappeared later."
Charles couldn't help but fall into memories, thinking about all the things about Beast Hank.
However, this time he did not lose control because of the memories. After the injection of the serum, his emotions stabilized a lot and those memories could no longer control his mind.
But when I think back to the past, I can't help but feel a little lost in my eyes.
"Could he have been arrested by the government? After all, he is also a mutant, and his mutant characteristics are very obvious."
Logan looked at the professor and asked questions. After all, after the government's strong crackdown on mutants, its attitude towards mutants was very bad. Even if Hank was a government official, he would probably not escape the fate of being arrested.
"Not likely."
Charles shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Hank was a very smart man back then. His intelligence was unmatched among the mutants of the same period. His intelligence was not only reflected in genetics and biochemistry, but also in his ability to solve various problems."
"If the government wants to catch him, he will find out in the first place. Besides, he has worked in the government before and knows the methods of those guys. There is no way they can catch him."
Charles spoke with great confidence, his mouth full of praise for Hank.
He was very satisfied with Hank and was sure that the government would not be able to catch him. After thinking for a while, Charles added, "And his strength and speed are far beyond that of ordinary people. Unless he wants to, I'm afraid no one can catch him. He is an excellent guy with top intelligence, ability and even morality."
"This is the first time I've seen you praise someone like this."
Logan couldn't help but smile at the professor. You know, the professor was almost like a prophet. The fact that he was praised so highly by him was enough to show how powerful Hank was.
Charles couldn't help but smile and said, "His excellence is worthy of these praises."
But as he laughed, he became disappointed again. "Unfortunately, his philosophy is contrary to mine. He is more obsessed with cooperating directly with the government, hoping to grant mutants legal citizenship and formulate mutant-related laws to restrict mutants' behavior. His wish is to allow mutants to enjoy the same treatment as ordinary humans."
Such an idea is too naive and full of difficulties, but Hank still works hard for it, which is why he chose to become the director of the Department of Mutant Affairs.
Unfortunately, his lifelong efforts did not produce any positive results. The situation of mutants is still very bad, and nothing has changed until now.
But he soon smiled again, "It would be great if it really is Hank. To be honest, I really miss this old friend."
Logan couldn't help but smile when he saw the professor's happy expression.
He knew why the professor was happy. After the government began to suppress mutants, there were fewer and fewer veteran mutants. Now there were only a few who he could call old friends. Knowing the whereabouts of any one of them was an extremely exciting thing.
"I'll go and see if I get a chance, to meet the father that weirdo is talking about, and see if he is really Hank."
Logan smiled and patted the professor on the shoulder.
But he didn't actually hold out much hope in his heart. After all, if it was really Hank, perhaps he would come to him in person instead of sending his son.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Hank is busy and cannot spare the time.
However, Logan was more inclined to believe that the father mentioned by that weirdo was a clone of Hank's genes.
After all, almost all the genes of the X-Men were collected back then. With the level of those laboratories, it was not difficult to have the genes and create a clone.
However, Logan did not tell the professor directly. After all, he finally found something that made him happy, and Logan still hoped that his happiness could last a little longer.
…
In the next few days, Logan had nothing to do and no missions to go out on, so he stayed on the farm and continued teaching the fighting courses.
These peaceful days made Logan feel rare and comfortable.
However, Maca seemed to be very busy. He was often not seen for the whole day and only showed up at night. His face was obviously much more haggard.
Such peaceful days continued until Sunday morning, when a piece of news broke the boring daily routine of several days.
There were no classes scheduled that day, so Logan brushed his teeth and washed up, then sat on the sofa, made himself a cup of tea, and enjoyed his leisurely morning life.
But before the tea was ready, Victor's door was suddenly opened. It seemed that this guy saw something exciting and he opened the door without any caution, making a loud bang.
Logan was about to complain, but Victor ran over excitedly with his phone in hand.
He sat down on the sofa, held the phone in front of Logan, and said excitedly: "Logan, take a look at this!"
Logan looked at his excited expression and said with a smile: "What could make you so excited..."
However, before he could finish his words, his eyes were instantly drawn to the content on Victor's phone.
A news video was playing on the phone, with the title "Avengers attacked, all members are chasing the murderer!"
After seeing this news, Logan instantly became interested and immediately clicked on the news video.
What comes into view is clearly a busy road, but the busy road seems very peaceful.
But suddenly, this tranquility was broken by several speeding figures.
A black steel figure rushed to the front, fleeing madly as if he was running for his life.
Behind him, Tony followed closely in his battle suit, occasionally firing shells at the steel figure, but they were all dodged by the black shadow.
Next to Tony, Thor was speeding along, driven by his hammer, as if he wanted to go around to the front and surround the shadow.
Higher up in the sky, a Quinjet had locked onto the black shadow, but due to the busy traffic area, it was unable to shoot and could only fly alongside it.
The door of the plane was already open, and Steve's figure could be vaguely seen. He seemed to want to jump off the plane and knock down the black shadow.
On the road, Natasha was riding a motorcycle, weaving past cars one after another, looking up from time to time to determine the direction of the black shadow.
Soon, the video came to an abrupt end.
And Logan recognized the identity of the person being hunted, it was the newly born Ultron!
The moment he saw Ultron, a deep smile appeared on Logan's face.
He knew very well that his plan had succeeded and the Avengers were following the original plot.
As expected, Tony couldn't resist the temptation of the Mind Scepter and started to research it, accidentally giving birth to the powerful enemy Ultron.
Logan understood that the Avengers and SHIELD must be racking their brains over the matter of Ultron, and the threat of Ultron was like a sharp knife pointed at their hearts, forcing them to deal with it properly.
For a long time afterwards, they had no time to think about anything else, and he was able to spend a leisurely time in peace.
"My God, technology is so advanced nowadays."
After watching the video, Victor put away his phone and exclaimed: "This is much better than Tesla's sentinel robot."
The sentinels had caused them a lot of trouble back then, but compared to the guys in the video just now, they were nothing.
After all, that guy was able to face the Avengers' siege alone, so his strength was much stronger.
"That's no ordinary robot."
Logan smiled and shook his head.
He knew Ultron's identity. As a super artificial intelligence born from the Scepter of Mind, he was born with extremely strong intelligence.
And that body was just his temporary carrier. Theoretically, it was impossible for him to eliminate it.
It is connected to the Internet and has become one with it. Unless the global Internet is cut off, it cannot be truly eliminated.
In the subsequent plot, it was also with the help of Vision's Mind Stone that Ultron was forcibly separated from the network end, turning him into stand-alone mode, and thus successfully killed him.
Otherwise, if Vision hadn't existed, Age of Ultron might have really happened.
"Hey, anyway, it's the Avengers who are the ones who are defeated. In the current situation, it won't be bad for us to have such a thing happen."
Victor spoke with an excited look on his face, he seemed very happy to see the Avengers in trouble.
"I hope so."
Logan smiled, but couldn't help looking out the window.
Logan cannot determine whether it is a good thing or not, but according to the original plot, Ultron will eventually be destroyed.
But if something unexpected happens and the plot cannot proceed in the normal direction, then it would be hard to say.
Ultron is actually still very dangerous.
Of course, Logan believes that the plot is unlikely to change, and before Ultron is dealt with, Logan will no longer worry about the Avengers and those guys from SHIELD.
Thinking of this, Logan couldn't help but smile, stood up and said, "Never mind these things, let the Avengers and those guys from SHIELD worry about it, let's go eat first."
…
…
…
Avengers Base.
At this time, all the Avengers were sitting in the conference room of the base. Everyone sat in two rows, but no one spoke. Everyone was in a very low mood, and the conference room was filled with a tense atmosphere.
"Tony, you must be responsible for this matter!"
Steve spoke to break the silence, his eyes fixed on Tony on the other side, "If you hadn't insisted on developing Ultron, causing that guy to lose control, such a dangerous situation wouldn't have occurred."
"But my original intention was good!"
Tony didn't think he was wrong. After being accused, he retorted without hesitation, "You know, there are not only us earthlings in this world, but also aliens and even gods. The power of the earth is currently unable to protect itself. All I do is to protect the earth!"
"But what you created is now going to destroy all of humanity!"
Steve slammed the table angrily, "And this dangerous guy can't be killed!"
"Technology is bound to make mistakes sometimes, this was just an accident." Tony refuted without any loss.
Steve's expression was cold. "I told you not to do such a dangerous thing, but why didn't you listen?"
After saying that, he turned to look at Banner, "And you, Dr. Banner, you should stop him!"
"I do this for this planet and this country!"
Tony still insisted on his words, "Otherwise, the next time aliens invade, what kind of defense will you have, your shield? Or do you want me to bear another nuclear bomb?! No matter how strong my life is, I can only bear one more nuclear bomb at most. What about the next time? Will you bear it?!"
The two of them kept arguing with each other, and the others couldn't interrupt them at all, nor did they want to.
At this time, the door was opened, and Fury strode in with Hill, and sat directly at the front of the conference table, looking at the two people with cold eyes, "Is it fun to quarrel? If you have this time, you might as well think about how to deal with that guy!"
Steve was silent, but his expression remained serious.
Tony complained, "Fury, don't try to pass the buck when something goes wrong. If you hadn't lost the scepter, nothing else would have happened. Take care of your own internal affairs first, and then come and lecture us!"
If there hadn't been a HYDRA spy inside S.H.I.E.L.D. who stole the scepter, how could there be all these things happening now?
Hearing this, Fury didn't know how to refute it for a moment, after all, Tony was right.
Hill looked at the tense look of the crowd and said helplessly, "Calm down, quarreling won't solve any problems!"
No one spoke anymore, but the atmosphere in the meeting room was still tense.
After being silent for nearly a minute, Fury seemed to remember something and suddenly asked, "You reported earlier that you met a group of people in the castle, and that group of guys found the scepter in advance but didn't take it away?"
The Avengers remained silent, seemingly not wanting to pay attention to him.
Only Hill said, "According to post-war statistics, only some super soldier serum was lost. Perhaps their original target was not the scepter."
"impossible!"
Fury said affirmatively: "No one can resist the temptation of the scepter."
At this time, Tony snorted coldly: "Those are the mutants, what SHIELD and Hydra are eyeing. How dare those guys intercept them?"
After saying that, he suddenly thought of something and frowned, "Do you think the appearance of Ultron is a conspiracy of those guys?"
"That was your mistake. Don't always try to blame it on others."
Steve on the opposite side directly refuted Tony's remarks.
"I never blame my mistakes on anyone else."
Tony responded word by word in a cold voice and then stopped talking.
Fury listened to what the two said and thought for a long time. He felt that it was not reasonable. After all, how could those guys be sure that Tony would study the scepter? Although
he thought so rationally, his strong sixth sense still made him feel that he and his people seemed to have been tricked...
