According to the plot, the Black Emperor, after being reminded by the White Queen, realized that Professor X and the others were expanding their forces to deal with him and would launch a surprise attack tonight.
However, it should be a while.
"What about you? What's your name?"
Mystique Raven saw that everyone else had been introduced, and Ron was sitting alone at the counter, so she asked out of curiosity.
Inside the room, Alex, Hank and the others turned their gazes over.
"Ron."
He glanced at a few people and replied casually.
Seeing that Ron seemed a little out of place, the others stopped paying attention to him and began to excitedly introduce their abilities to each other.
While chatting and laughing with everyone, Riven glanced at Ron from time to time.
It wasn't because Ron was handsome, but just like how she would end up together with Magneto, whom she had only known for a short time, she had a vague feeling that Ron seemed to be the same type of person as her.
"I am alone, with no one to communicate deeply with, lacking love in my life, and out of tune with the world. I am like a monster and a ghost with nowhere to go and blend into society."
"Um?"
Ron noticed her gaze and Raven immediately looked away.
In the room, several people began to say the code names they thought of and show their abilities.
First up is Darwin.
"In fact, Darwin is just a nickname, survival of the fittest."
The tall and strong black man smiled slightly, walked to the transparent fish tank in the room, put his head in the water, and demonstrated his ability. Almost instantly, three rows of gills that could breathe freely underwater grew out from his gills.
He turned his head in the fish tank, showing it off with a hint of arrogance, so that everyone could see it more clearly.
"Oh, that's amazing!"
Others were surprised and cheered and clapped as if they were having a party.
Darwin lifted his head from the fish tank, shook off the water, and the gills disappeared, and he sat back in his original position.
"The ability is good, but the strength is too weak."
Putting down his wine glass, Ron watched expressionlessly, commenting in his heart.
"Considering other aspects, it's barely acceptable."
With enough ability points, he can obtain the abilities of these people at will.
But not all abilities are worth spending ability points on, just like buying things, the money must be spent wisely.
Darwin's ability, the body can protect itself and evolve according to the environment, easily reminds people of the powerful biological weapon in the DC universe - Doomsday.
But there is a world of difference between the two.
Darwin's ability is that once the dangerous environment disappears, his evolutionary ability will immediately degenerate, and he cannot accumulate evolution, and the degree of evolution each time is not very strong. In the plot, the Black Emperor stuffed the energy of Alex's attack into his mouth, and he couldn't bear it and exploded.
However, looking at his performance during evolution, such as growing ugly gills, the subsequent degeneration after evolution turned out to be an advantage, otherwise he would have turned into a monster in no time.
"This ability allows one to deal with many emergencies, such as vacuums, toxins, etc., so it's pretty good."
Included as one of the available abilities.
Suddenly, a man's sharp scream was heard in the room.
It was the turn of others to show their abilities. The siren, which could emit powerful sound waves from its mouth, shattered the thick glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the room.
The angel, who used to be a stripper but named herself Angel, showed her insect-like wings on her back, flew up and spit out acid that corroded the top of the bronze statue outside the window.
Buzz!
Finally it was Alex's turn. He twisted his body and released a dark red high-energy curved blade, which cut through the bronze statue outside the room like a hot knife cutting butter. The power was so great that it caused everyone to exclaim in surprise.
"Good ability, but poorly applied."
Ron's eyes moved slightly. After Darwin, he finally found another ability that was acceptable.
Shockwave Alex can absorb cosmic energy such as radiation, electromagnetic or thermal energy in the environment and convert it into high-energy form of plasma through his body, which he emits, causing a very terrible destructive force.
The indestructible lightsaber in Star Wars is actually plasma energy bound into shape by a magnetic field.
Its ability can be emitted from any part of the body, but Alex's current development is very crude. He can only twist his body and use ridiculous movements to assist, like spinning a hula hoop, to emit energy arc blades.
"If it's developed well, it's entirely possible to release plasma laser rays from your eyes."
He narrowed his eyes.
That is exactly the signature skill of his biological father, Homelander - Cyclops.
"Ron, everyone has demonstrated their abilities. What are your abilities?"
After everyone else had demonstrated their abilities, Riven clicked on him again.
Ron looked at the empty wine glass in his hand with an expressionless face. He flicked his sharp nails on his index finger and lightly scratched the wine glass.
Hiss, like a sharp diamond cutting knife scratching across the glass, making a slight sound.
With a gentle pick up, the rim of the cup separates neatly from the cup body.
"Oh, this ability is so cool, just like a tiger or a leopard!"
Several people came closer, their expressions of surprise, especially the boy, whose eyes lit up and he clapped vigorously.
"Looking at his claws, I have no doubt it could easily rip out a person's throat."
"Hank, I think he's more suitable for the nickname of Beast than you. After all, you only have a pair of big feet."
Alex, who was a reckless person, bumped his shoulder against Hank next to him and joked.
In terms of power, Alex is actually stronger, but in terms of fashion sense, in the eyes of these young people, Ron is cooler. He is like an elegant hunter who can snap out nails with the movement of his five fingers and reap lives!
"yes."
Hank's face showed an uneasy look as he responded.
He only has a pair of deformed big feet like a beast, and the only ability he has is to run a little faster than ordinary people.
"Such abilities shouldn't exist..."
He looked at Mystique, whom he loved, with a little sadness.
We must develop a serum that can restore us to normal appearance as soon as possible!
Ron's abilities are not limited to this, his most powerful ability is self-healing.
But he would not be like this group of immature young people who would perform as if they were showing a show, scratching themselves to show their abilities and win cheers of surprise.
After seeing Ron's abilities, everyone started playing loud music in the room and really had a party in the CIA secret base. They danced and used their abilities, making the place a mess and full of noise.
Ten minutes later, a woman in a windbreaker, Eric, and Charles came in from the window in a resolute manner. They stared at the mess with wide eyes, questioning loudly in disbelief.
"What the hell? What are you doing?"
"What's wrong with the glass in the room?
Who destroyed the bronze statue in the yard? "
Hearing the questioning, this group of immature young people finally turned off the loud music, stood there at a loss, and seemed to finally realize what they had done, pointing fingers one after another.
"The Siren, and Alex. The bronze statue was made by Alex."
Sitting at the counter, Ron watched everything coldly.
Maura, a senior CIA agent, was the one who infiltrated the Hellfire Club, discovered the Black Emperor's conspiracy, and found Professor X. Professor X looked through her memories and got involved in this matter, which led to all this.
She was also Professor X's lover when he was young.
The time when Riven and the others committed the crime was too unfortunate. The three of them had just returned from the conference room. Faced with the questioning of the CIA leader, what could a group of untrained young freaks do?
The three of them tried their best to fight for it, but Charles said seriously that they were not ordinary young people and would bring surprises.
As a result, as soon as I turned the corner and came out of the conference room, I saw this scene. It was a slap in the face.
"It's really extraordinary."
Eric glanced at Charles, shook his head and walked away coldly. Mora's face was filled with anger and they left together.
"Except for Ron, you guys disappoint me so much!"
Charles glanced at Ron, who had been sitting quietly at the bar without making any noise, and said to Mystique and the others with a mixture of anger and disappointment, then turned around and followed without looking back.
Leaving Mystique and the others at a loss.
The three of them walked quickly on the road leading to the nearby airport.
"At least Ron didn't join them in their mischief. We didn't just bring in partygoers who only knew how to cause trouble at home."
Charles looked grim.
"He's as mature as someone our age."
Eric thought back to Ron's various behaviors and said.
"Do you want to take him with you?"
Maura raised an eyebrow and suggested that the meeting was called because the CIA had obtained intelligence on the whereabouts of the White Queen on the Soviet side, and they had to sneak behind enemy lines and capture the other party to obtain intelligence.
The secret plane to the Soviet Union is about to take off.
They had originally planned to take Mystique and others with them to carry out this mission, but now it seems not suitable.
"Forget it, no matter how mature he is, he is still just a child.
It was my mistake to involve a group of children in this."
Charles shook his head uncomfortably.
I was too careless at the time. Matters concerning the safety of the world need to be handled by more mature people. It is too dangerous to leave it to children, and it is not fair to these children.
"let's go."
…
Someone came to clean up everything, replaced the glass, and moved the cut bronze statue away.
After being scolded, Mystique and the others sat on the sofa and became quiet. The extremely disappointed look in Charles' eyes when he left hurt them.
Without drinking any more, Ron waited quietly.
"By now, Charles and the others should have gone to capture the White Queen.
The Black Emperor will soon be bringing his men here."
Tonight, both sides happened to take action against each other at the same time, and the main forces just missed each other, and as a result, each side gained something.
Peng!
Suddenly, there were some faint and strange noises outside the floor-to-ceiling glass blocked by the electric curtains.
Several people looked at each other in confusion.
"What's that sound?"
Just after they got into trouble, several civil servants from the bureau walked by outside, laughing at them and treating them like freaks in a circus. They couldn't stand it and closed the curtains.
After opening the curtains, a few people walked to the glass curiously and stared at the vast night outside. Suddenly, a person fell from the sky and hit them in front of them and died, turning into a corpse.
"ah!"
Several people stepped back in fright, screaming in terror.
Ron slowly stood up.
"Here it comes..."
