"Could I borrow your phone, please?"
As the truck started moving again, George immediately asked Gabriella.
Before thinking about how to rescue Tony Stark, he needed to thoroughly understand the history and current situation of this World to make more accurate judgments and a more complete plan.
And in this era, the fastest way to do that was, naturally, to use a phone to go online and research.
"Of course, here."
Without a second thought, Gabriella pulled out her phone from her pocket and handed it to George.
Taking the phone, George began searching for the information he wanted online until the truck entered the Mexico border and the sky gradually darkened, then he returned the phone to Gabriella.
"So that's how it is."
In fact, the history of this Universe was not much different from the movie Universe, except for the presence of some Mutant elements.
According to online news reports, Mutants truly became known to the public in 1973.
Mystique, a Mutant, attempted to assassinate Trask, but was ultimately stopped. Mystique became a hero to Mutants, and humans gradually began to accept the existence of Mutants.
In 1977, Quicksilver broke 8 World records in sports competitions, and the sports World began to ban Mutants from participating in professional sports.
This conflicted with the movie Universe, because according to the movie Universe, Quicksilver had not yet been born that year; both Quicksilver and Wanda were born in 1990 in the movie Universe.
This also reminded him that many things in the future could not be entirely dealt with according to the movie plots he had seen.
Afterward, the X-Men, a superhero organization, became widely popular, and a large number of spin-off comics about the X-Men also appeared; the one in Little Wolf Girl's hand was one of them.
Many stories in it were based on real X-Men events, but there was also a lot of fiction, such as the so-called Garden of Eden.
The Apocalypse event occurred in 1983, and not long after it ended, the Westchester incident broke out. Professor X suffered a sudden seizure, his brain lost control and he killed all the X-Men except Wolverine, as well as the Mutant students at the school, plus over six hundred innocent humans in the surrounding area.
Since then, Professor X was listed as a "weapon of mass destruction" by the U.S. Government and became a wanted man, and Mutants began to disappear.
Now, more than twenty years later, most humans have forgotten the existence of Mutants, and many of the new generation even only consider them as fictional characters from comics.
For some reason, governments around the Earth have also been downplaying the history of Mutant existence, seemingly wanting to prove that the government is humanity's greatest reliance, not some Mutant superheroes.
And before 1973, there was almost no news of any Mutant existence, which is why Steve Rogers became Captain America through the Super Soldier Serum and defeated HYDRA.
It is estimated that at that time, Wolverine and Sabretooth were still ordinary soldiers with little fame, Professor X and Magneto were still children, and the Hellfire Club was also hidden in the shadows.
"Have you ever thought about looking for Wolverine and Professor X, who might still exist?"
At this point, George already had a rough plan in mind.
Although the history of this Universe had many conflicts with what he knew, generally speaking, some things had not changed. He could not rely entirely on known information, but he also could not completely abandon his advantage in this area.
At least the initial reason that led to Tony Stark's kidnapping was most likely Obadiah Stane, who wanted to kill Tony Stark and monopolize Stark Industries.
However, his psychic ability was not enough to extract information about the Ten Rings Gang from Obadiah Stane to find Tony Stark's whereabouts, so Professor X was needed.
Professor X, due to his epilepsy, would occasionally lose control of his brain, but he had improved a lot under medication, and in most cases, his mind was still clear.
Perhaps he could no longer be as powerful as before, but simple psychic memory reading should still be possible.
After all, he could still chat with Little Wolf Girl from a distance now and then.
With Wolverine as a tank, coupled with his abilities, rescuing Tony Stark would not be difficult.
Although Wolverine was old, when he got serious, he was not someone ordinary Terrorists could stop. Furthermore, Gabriella had brought a lot of temporary Mutant ability-enhancing potions when she escaped, which could help Wolverine regain some of his strength.
And most importantly, these two people had rich experience in planning and executing missions, which he, Gabriella, and these Mutant children lacked.
To be honest, abroad, he himself was completely in the dark, even less so than Gabriella.
"We have thought about it. We have been looking for news about them before, but we only heard that someone who looked like Wolverine was a driver in El Paso, and there were no other clues.
And we thought about it, Professor X is also a wanted criminal, so he might not be able to help us."
Gabriella replied helplessly.
George nodded at the words. In some ways, Gabriella's idea was not wrong; Wolverine and the others were indeed struggling to protect themselves.
"I have a plan now. If it succeeds, then in the future, the children may not need to be controlled by anyone and can live like normal people."
Without any concealment, he told Gabriella his plan in full.
His idea was simple: if Gabriella agreed, then he would be willing to put in more effort to help, considering it an investment for the future.
If Gabriella did not agree, then he would not force it. He was not a soft-hearted person; after delivering the children to their destination, he would leave alone to complete his plan and then settle down in New York.
Besides, his choice might not necessarily be the best for the children; perhaps they would live better if they went to Canada.
Hearing George's plan, Gabriella fell into contemplation.
At this moment, she was very conflicted because, to be honest, she didn't have much confidence in the Canadian Government. As a Mexican who grew up in Juarez, she found it very difficult to have much faith in the government.
However, the plan George spoke of also carried great risks.
If George and the others ultimately failed to rescue Tony Stark, and they missed the agreed time with the Canadian Government, then the children would definitely be captured and brutally killed by the people from the Base.
Also, would Wolverine and Professor X be willing to help?
Seeing Gabriella's internal struggle, George added:
"If Wolverine and Professor X are unwilling to help, or if we can't return before Friday at five o'clock, then you should cross the border into Canada according to the original plan."
Today was Saturday, and there were six days until next Friday. If all went well, six days would be enough for them to rescue Tony Stark.
"Okay, George, thank you so much!"
Gabriella nodded with gratitude.
Actually, George could have left on his own without helping them. With George's abilities and the intelligence he displayed, escaping the pursuit of the laboratory was not difficult.
But he chose to stay and help them, finding ways for them to live better.
"You're welcome. Speaking of which, I am just like them, an experiment from the Base, so I guess I'm their older brother."
George said with a smile and a sigh.
"Actually, according to the creation time, you should be the youngest among them."
Gabriella seemed to think of something and suddenly laughed.
George couldn't help but smile at her words. She was right; counting from the time this body was created until now, it had been less than a year. He really was the youngest Mutant in the laboratory.
