CHAPTER 398 DOUBTS (1/2)
To be honest, Lin Rui had always thought that Professor Charles is very strong, he may be even better than the Level-5 Mutant Iceman who cannot fully exert his own strength. After all, his mutant ability is telepathy and control, which poses a greater threat to people. However, Lin Rui never regarded Professor Charles as a combatant type person, he was more like a leader, a wise old man.
So, after hearing that Professor Charles is coming to this battle, Lin Rui was a little surprised. But he quickly accepted the situation, after all, Professor Charles had once used his powers to make the world fear him.
“Since you said that this station is significant, then I will do my best. Moreover, there are some Mutants in Hydra that would not be easy to deal with. I hope to limit those people from causing any harm and save more of our kind.” After hearing Lin Rui’s obvious surprise, Charles continued to answer indifferently.
Listening to Charles mentioning Mutants in Hydra, Lin Rui’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. Having been so preoccupied with Infinity Stone lately, Lin Rui has forgotten something important. That’s Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, the children of Magneto.
From the beginning, after learning that Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch were working for Hydra, Lin Rui wondered if the Brotherhood of Mutants led by Magneto had any connection to Hydra. Of course, it is possible that Magneto did not know he had such a pair of children and Lin Rui could use this to make Magneto and Hydra die.
However, if there is a connection between Magneto and Hydra, then today’s battle may have some variables. Lin Rui, who had already been broken by the broken plot, had to think more, but he really hoped that Magneto and Hydra had nothing to do with each other.
Magneto as the other radical force leading Mutants: The Brotherhood of Mutants, his strength is beyond doubt, the strength of the Mutants Brotherhood can not be underestimated as it won’t be any worse than X-Men. If Magneto intervenes in today’s battle from Hydra’s side, maybe their plan to destroy Hydra won’t go as they had planned.
“Professor Charles, a question has just occurred to me.” Thinking of this, Lin Rui quickly spoke to Charles.
“What is it?”
“Regarding the Mutants Brotherhood, have you noticed anything about them lately? Or do you know what happened to your old friend Magneto?” Without beating around the bush, Lin Rui asked directly. Lin Rui believes that the X-Men, who have been dealing with the Mutants for so many years, must know something about their opponents.
“Is there news from the Mutants Brotherhood and Magneto? They haven’t seemed to be moving recently, and they took some small actions which were within our expectations. Some time ago Magneto planned to a.s.sa.s.sinate a member of Parliament who opposed Mutants, but we stopped it. Mirage Knight, why did you ask this?” Despite his curiosity, Professor Charles answered Lin Rui’s question.
“a.s.sa.s.sinate a member of parliament who opposes Mutants? When did it happen?” Although Hydra doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the a.s.sa.s.sination, Lin Rui doesn’t want to let go of the possibility.
“That was a month ago, and Erik didn’t do it himself. To be honest, Erik probably knows me better than anyone else in the world, and he has Mutants who block my telepathy, so I can’t find him.” Charles seems to recognize the seriousness in Lin Rui’s voice and continues to speak.
“A month ago? There seems to be no connection.” After hearing Professor Charles’ reply, Lin Rui can’t think of a connection between Hydra and the a.s.sa.s.sination of the senator. Moreover, it is not the first time that the Mutants Brotherhood tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate someone from the government. Magneto did not personally take action, it should be an act of simple revenge.
“Mirage Knight, have you found anything? Or do you think Hydra has something to do with the Brotherhood of Mutants? I can a.s.sure you that the Mutants in Hydra are not from the Mutants Brotherhood, Magneto will not let Mutants be controlled by Hydra as goons.” Professor Charles seems to have heard something from Lin Rui’s tone and continued.
