Chapter 179 Are you fast?
Looking at the fearful eyes of the Night Walker, Du Mu suddenly felt that he was a bit like a member of the underworld, commanding his men to kidnap qualified children to become disciples...

What Orochimaru?

Of course, it was just a joke. Du Mu didn't need his disciples to work hard for him. He just wanted their strength to improve.

At this moment, the gray-haired boy suddenly flashed and disappeared.

The moment he acted, Du Mu's reaction speed increased to the same level as his opponent.

Du Mu's reaction speed could certainly be faster, but there was no need. He usually maintained a normal human reaction speed. Otherwise, wouldn't the conversation be a boring slow motion?

But in the final analysis, the extreme speed of Kryptonians still exists. Even if someone suddenly attacks him, he will react as quickly as the 'blinking reflex'.

But Du Mu maintained his original posture, motionless, and only shifted his gaze to look at Pietro.

In an environment where everyone seemed to be standing still, Pietro first came in front of Magneto and stared at his face carefully with a complicated expression.

In the end, he secretly threw a blueberry into Eric's wine glass.

Obviously he knew that the other person was his father, but he had not gotten along well with him in the past few days and felt a little resentful.

After Pietro's harmless mess with Eric, he picked up the bottle of wine from the White Queen, sniffed it, and wanted to taste it.

Because Pietro was still at high speed, the wine was falling too slowly, so he placed the bottle in mid-air and dragged it along, and a line of wine naturally extended from the mouth of the bottle.

Just as Pietro leisurely walked behind the wine line and was about to start tasting the wine...he noticed that the man sitting on the sofa seemed to be staring at him.

The feeling of being watched made Pietro feel a little uncomfortable, so he moved slightly away from the other person.

However...something happened that made Pietro's hair stand on end.

As he moved, the other person's eyes were still following him closely.

Damn, is this true?

Pietro was so scared that he immediately returned to the Red Devil's side, slowed down his super speed, and pretended nothing had happened.

In his perception, the speed of the people around him also returned to normal.

But then, Pietro's heart skipped a beat. Because the situation was so strange, he forgot that the bottle of red wine was still flying!

However, the sound of the wine bottle being broken did not come for a long time. Pietro looked around in confusion and horror, and finally found where the bottle of wine had gone.

It actually returned to the hands of the busty woman!

Wait, there’s more…

Pietro was horrified to find that even the amount of wine in the bottle had not decreased!

It seemed as if the wine line I had drawn returned into the cup out of thin air. Everything seemed like a dream, as if nothing had happened.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

However, Eric, who was standing by, was suddenly choked and kept slapping his chest, his face turning red.

Just now, after seeing Pietro, he didn't know how to face him, so he drank the wine in the glass in a disguised manner. However, he drank too fast and choked on the blueberries in the glass.

Fortunately, it didn't choke my trachea, it was just like swallowing a berry whole, which made my esophagus a little uncomfortable.

The blueberries thrown into Eric's cup are still there, but why...

Pietro didn't dare to think further, because the scene just now was just like the pranks he usually played on others... It was an operation that could only be completed when it was so fast that others could not see clearly.

But how is this possible? Could it be that the other party is also a super speed type?
But, this move that even a speedster like me can't see...

How fast is he?
Is this fake? It should be another mutant ability, like time stopping or something?
Yes, the opponent’s mutant ability must be time suspension!

In order to prevent others from crushing him in the field he is best at, Pietro even imagined Du Mu's mutant abilities.

But he still felt something was wrong.

While maintaining his extreme speed, he can always keep his position locked with his eyes... This cannot be explained by any other mutant ability.

"Please introduce these two children to me." Du Mu spoke, interrupting Pietro's wandering thoughts.

Pietro raised his head and glanced at Du Mu. Seeing that he was also looking at him with a smile, he suddenly felt a little numb.

So both the Red Devil and Eric found that Pietro was exceptionally honest this time. He did not use his superpowers to run around while others were chatting.

The Red Devil respectfully introduced Du Mu, "This is my son, Kurt Wagner. He used to live in the church, but... his living environment was very bad, which made him sensitive and cowardly."

"He even foolishly believed in the existence of God and thought he was the devil's child, born to atone for his sins. I have to say, he was somewhat comically right, haha."

When the Red Devil spoke, apart from the faint laugh at the end, he did not show much emotion. It was true that Kurt was his son, but the Red Devil was not the traditional father figure.

Although different from the original comics, the Red Devil's background does not involve hell, and he is just an ordinary mutant with an abnormal appearance, but his personality is still naturally indifferent, and it seems that he is looking for his own child just to obey Du Mu's orders.

Charles frowned slightly, but just sighed silently.

He had been concentrating on maintaining the Godly Lord Protection System during this period, and had little communication with the Red Devil. But now that they were face to face, he simply used his telepathic ability and found that the Red Devil really had no feelings for Kurt.

He was only curious about Kurt's blood relationship, but he had no intention of becoming a family with him.

At the same time, more subconscious thoughts in the Red Devil's mind gradually surfaced under Charles' exploration.

The other party was indeed initially intimidated by Du Mu's aura of protecting mutants all over the world, but for this tough guy who grew up in an abnormal environment, his subsequent loyalty was simply because Du Mu showed a power that far exceeded any other force in the world.

However, this kind of strength did not bring any benefits to the Red Devil, and he was almost considering leaving.

This discovery inevitably made Charles a little disappointed.

But he did not say anything to accuse others, because the idea of ​​judging by actions rather than intentions was already concluded by Charles before he started school. Otherwise, he would have to guard against too many people every day.

Although Du Mu did not have the ability to perceive other people's mental power as clearly as Charles, he could still sense the Red Devil's mentality from the fact that when the Red Devil told him about Kurt's misery in the same year, even though Kurt looked painful, he still remained indifferent.

But Du Mu didn't care.

To the Du Mu of the past, the Red Devil might be considered elusive, but to the Du Mu of the present, the moment the Red Devil disappears, Du Mu knows where he appears, so as long as the other party does not make trouble and lives a good life, Du Mu will not do anything to him.

When Kurt heard the Red Devil's mocking words, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed, with his tail drooping.

Most of the others who heard the Red Devil's words also frowned.

Among the crowd, the one who reacted the most was Pietro.

Pietro turned around, frowned at the Red Devil, and said in a deep voice: "You abandoned them and their son. His living conditions are entirely caused by you, and you don't feel anything at all?"

The Red Devil raised an eyebrow and smiled nonchalantly, "Normal families don't belong to mutants of my generation, kid."

"I never had any parental care when I was a child, but I still grew up strong enough. In this regard, Kurt did not inherit my genes."

As he spoke, he rubbed Kurt's head, but his strength was a little rough. It was obvious that he had no experience in interacting with children.

"Besides, I wasn't the only one who abandoned him. Didn't his mother also abandon him after seeing his condition?"

"What?" Kurt suddenly raised his head and looked at the Red Devil in disbelief.

The Red Devil said casually, "Why? Didn't I tell you? I found your mother first, and then I knew of your existence."

"The gypsy woman decided to have a one-night stand with me because of my appearance. But when the baby turned out to be like this, she didn't dare to keep it."

"shut up!"

Pietro had been spending the most time with Kurt these past few days, and since they had similar backgrounds, teleportation could allow him to keep up with his speed to some extent.

Kurt is a people-pleasing person, and Pietro has had few friends since childhood. He pretends to be independent but longs for the company of others, so the two of them became close friends almost instantly.

The biggest anxiety for the two during this period was to formally contact each other's fathers...

However, both Red Devil and Magneto seemed to be extremely busy and were hardly ever seen.

They were finally able to get together today. Even though Pietro didn't expect the father and son to hug each other and cry, he didn't expect that the Red Devil didn't take Kurt seriously at all and didn't care about his child at all.

Then...what about my father?

Pietro didn't even dare to look at Eric. He just stared at the Red Devil angrily and said word by word: "You bastard, you are not worthy of being Kurt's father."

The Red Devil spread his hands indifferently.

Kurt pulled Pietro helplessly and lowered his head and said, "It's okay. I knew I was abandoned a long time ago. This is not new news to me." Then he looked at his hands and said self-deprecatingly, "From the beginning, when I was curious about why I didn't have a father and a mother, I only needed to look down at my skin and I knew everything."

The Red Devil smiled and said, "You are quite smart, just like me in this respect."

"Oh!"

The Red Devil groaned and was knocked to the ground by a punch.

He immediately stood up and looked angrily at the man who hit him in the face.

If Du Mu hadn't been here, he would definitely have started a fight with the other party.

Of course, there is a high probability that we cannot win.

Pietro was stunned.

He turned around and saw Eric, with a frown on his face, standing behind him.

Eric looked at the Red Devil and said in a deep voice: "You were a scumbag who followed Sebastian before, so I don't expect you to say anything meaningful."

"But you'd better control your jerkiness, at least in front of the Lord."

The Red Devil's expression slightly changed, but he finally bowed his head to Du Mu and said, "I am extremely sorry, Lord God, for letting you see my rude side."

The Red Devil's attitude was still that of a powerful person facing a certain force, and he still felt a little resentful.

In his opinion, staying with Charles seemed to offer no chance of gaining power and wealth except protecting the weak every day.

To be honest, the Red Devil is already thinking about leaving Charles Manor.

After all, he can only teleport... but he doesn't have the ability to see and hear from afar.

The Red Devil had no idea what Du Mu had done not long ago, and was unaware that the world outside had undergone earth-shaking changes.

The rules by which the world operates have changed, and he has lost the opportunity to use his teleportation ability to gain extraordinary wealth.

The Red Devil, who didn't understand this, was about to say the word "but".

After "but", he said that he was indeed able to live independently and would no longer rely on the glory of Lord Du Mu, and then used his abilities to leave in a graceful manner.

From now on, the sky is high and the birds fly freely, the sea is wide and the fish jump freely. With my teleportation ability, power and status are still within my reach. Why should I be a babysitter for those weak mutants in Charles Manor?

But before he uttered the first syllable, the White Queen next to him immediately used her telepathic ability to transmit everything that had just happened to the Red Devil.

The Red Devil almost couldn't catch his breath and looked at Du Mu in horror.

Du Mu raised his eyebrows and noticed Queen Bai's little action, but didn't say much.

After all, they are former colleagues, so it's not excessive to secretly pass a note to each other.

The Red Devil swallowed his saliva, lowered his head again, put on a smile to Kurt, and said reluctantly: "I'm sorry, Kurt, I didn't think about your situation before, I'm very sorry. I'm just not ready to welcome a relative... Please let me make it up to you in the future."

Everyone in the room was stunned when they heard this, not understanding why the Red Devil's attitude suddenly changed.

The White Queen didn't understand either, but she immediately learned the Red Devil's thoughts through mind reading.

He was trying his best to restore his impression in front of Du Mu. He had previously acted so cold and indifferent, which was the mentality of an employee who was about to resign.

But now he realized that the entire earth had become Du Mu's jurisdiction. He immediately dared not act rashly again and returned to his obedient behavior as he had when the Black Emperor had just died.

Kurt blinked, a little stunned.

Although he lacked love, he was not a brainless guy. Of course, he could tell that there was not much sincerity in the Red Devil's words.

But after all, the Red Devil was his father, so he felt a little relieved.

He even comforted the Red Devil, saying, "It's okay, there's no need to make amends... Anyway, after all these years, I've gotten used to it and can take care of myself."

On the contrary, Eric, who was standing next to him, was visibly choked up and looked quite awkward after hearing what the Red Devil said.

Charles stepped forward and patted Eric on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "What you wanted to say was snatched away by the Red Devil, and now you don't know what to say?"

Eric nodded with a grim face, then looked at Pietro apologetically.

Pietro's heart tightened. Although he wanted to meet the other party, even because the other party beat up the Red Devil, he knew that Eric was probably not a bastard like the Red Devil.

But...but Kurt had just suffered a blow, and his good friend successfully recognized each other as father and son. Isn't this another blow?
Pietro could hardly imagine how much of a betrayal Kurt must feel after meeting and then losing his father, and making friends with the same fate, only for his friends to escape that fate.

So, before Eric could speak, Pietro subconsciously used his speed ability and directly pulled Kurt away from Charles Manor.

Kurt felt a flash before his eyes, and he arrived at a hill a hundred meters away from Charles Manor.

He had a lot of experience in teleportation, so he was not panicked by the change of scene. Instead, he looked directly at Pietro and asked in confusion: "Pietro, isn't your father also in that room? Why did you run away with me?"

Pietro couldn't say what he was thinking, so he tried to save face by saying, "Didn't you just say that you can live independently even if you are alone?"

"That's what I thought. Anyway, we both have similar mutant abilities, so we don't need any damn father! We just need friends to take care of ourselves!"

"Of course, there's also my mother... Kurt, my mother will definitely welcome you. Why don't you move in with me? Then the two of us can use our own strength to make a living!"

Pietro became more and more excited as he spoke. With Kurt, a good friend who could teleport, and his high-speed movement, the whole world was almost their playground, and there was no one who could stop them!
"Your abilities are indeed suitable for making money. You can take over all the jobs in the city just by delivering food. Earning a million a month is not a dream."

Pietro's hair stood on end. He suddenly rushed out hundreds of meters, then came back to stand beside Kurt, looking nervously at Du Mu who had appeared behind him at some point.

"How...how did you catch up?"

"Of course I followed you out. You were walking on flat ground, and there were no traps or anything like that."

"This is impossible!" Pietro was speechless.

Du Mu raised his eyebrows: "You are the only one allowed to be fast, young man."

As he said this, he stretched out his hand and wanted to rub Pietro's head.

Pietro is still on guard, so he naturally refuses to obey and wants to escape quickly.

But no matter how fast Pietro ran or how many times he ran around the Charles Manor, that hand still slowly placed on his head at the normal speed.

It was like a switch, when Pietro ran to the hill where Kurt was again, Du Mu finally pinned his head down completely.

Pietro also looked horrified. He stammered, "You...you really...you really can keep up with my speed?"

Du Mu smiled and asked, "Are you very fast?"

Pietro choked and couldn't say anything.

Kurt on the side had a confused look on his face, having no idea what had happened between the two speedsters.

Du Mu's face straightened, and he said seriously: "From now on, there will be no more violence against mutants in this world, and I will not stop mutants from using their abilities to compete in the market."

"So you are right, Pietro. Both of you can survive in this society independently. Apart from illness, there will be no trouble that can harm you."

"But...if you want to take your abilities a step further, understand your abilities better, or use your abilities on a bigger stage...you can come find me."

Pietro looked odd.

Why does this person's tone of voice sound so strange?

How can you guarantee that there will be no more malicious intent against mutants in this world?

Do you think you are God?
For some reason, Pietrodo asked, "How do we find you?"

Du Mu smiled and said, "As long as you pray to the Divine Lord Du Mu, I will be able to hear your voices."

Although, it is broadcasted by relying on the image of the God.

Pietro looked puzzled.

Then he finally looked at Du Mu's face carefully.

The more he looked, the wider his eyes widened. The more he looked, the more shocked he became.

"You...you...you are the Divine Lord Du Mu?!"

Pietro, the speedster, finally freed himself from the father-son recognition scene and truly realized who wanted to see him.

It turned out to be the God Du Mu who had confronted the two major countries, the United States and the Soviet Union, on TV and promised to protect mutants all over the world!
