Chapter 116: Forced to compromise, the truth told by the weirdo
"I don't care who you are, just hand over my people."
Macka stared at Stark, his tone cold and his eyes threatening.
But Stark remained calm and said slowly, "Don't be so irritable. Maybe we can sit down and have a good talk."
"We have nothing to talk about!"
Victor's eyes were burning with anger, his sharp claws stretched out, and he pounced directly at Stark, his whole body filled with murderous intent.
Whoosh!
boom.
Stark reacted quickly and easily dodged Victor's pounce by moving sideways.
Seeing this, Victor rolled over and landed on the ground, ready to pounce on him again.
"Victor, calm down!"
Logan hurried forward and held Victor's shoulder to stop him from attacking, while staring at Stark.
Now the professor and his team have most likely been captured by this guy, and they cannot kill him for the time being.
Stark looked at the fierce light in the two men's eyes, and was not angry because of Victor's attack. He smiled and said, "I can understand your impetuous mood now, but please calm down and let us have a good talk first."
Logan frowned and asked, "Where are the professors?"
What he is most concerned about now is the safety of his professors.
"Don't worry, they are fine."
Stark smiled and waved behind him. Seeing this, a soldier on a farm in the distance immediately ran up with a tablet and handed it to Stark.
Strack handed the tablet to Logan with a smile and said, "If you are willing to cooperate, I promise that they will live comfortably. Of course, if you refuse, I'm sorry, I can only revoke the preferential treatment for them."
Logan took the tablet with a frown on his face, and a video was displayed on it.
When I opened the video, I saw that the professor and Caliban both had collars around their necks and were imprisoned in a closed room. There were only two beds in the huge room, and the two of them were sitting on the edge of the bed.
The professor was relatively calm, sitting on the bed with a peaceful expression.
Caliban was obviously terrified. He looked around in panic and kept saying something.
Looking at the two of them, Logan frowned.
Stark smiled and said, "Look, I didn't hurt them. I even gave them enough food to keep them warm and full. This is my greatest kindness. I hope you won't let me down."
After a pause, he added calmly, "If you have failed me, I can only apologize. Although I feel a little sorry for torturing a wise man over 90 years old, it is just a little more condemnation in my heart. I will not show mercy."
"Guess how long Charles can endure torture at his age? I guess it's ten minutes, or even shorter. After all, many guys younger than him can't even last half an hour in our cell. Ten minutes may be Charles' limit."
Strucker narrowed his eyes and looked at Logan and the others. "As for whether you want them to be safe or want them to suffer, the choice is yours."
Logan handed the tablet back with a sullen face and demanded, "What do you want to do?!"
"I'm hoping you can do me a favor."
Stark smiled and said, "Of course, it may be a little dangerous, but you are all veterans with rich combat experience. I believe this favor is a simple matter for you."
Logan frowned.
He knew that what Stkak was talking about must not be simple. After all, Hydra's power was extremely terrifying. If it was not a particularly difficult matter, they would not need help from others at all and could solve it themselves.
As for the fact that Stark could use hostages to threaten Logan and others, it must be a complicated and even dangerous thing.
"whats the matter?"
Logan asked in a calm voice.
Stark smiled and said, "It's very simple. Just help me get something back from the Middle East. Don't worry, I can ensure that Charles and the others are intact before you complete the mission. Once you hand the things over to me, I will definitely let them return to you alive and kicking."
After a pause, his eyes suddenly became dangerous. "If you refuse or the mission fails, I'm sorry, I can't guarantee Charles and the others' safety. But I can leave the bodies to you. I believe you will be heartbroken when you see those bodies riddled with holes."
"Damn it!"
Victor's eyes were still filled with murderous intent, "We can't possibly work for Hydra!"
After that, he said to Logan: "Catch him and use him to exchange for Charles and the others!"
As he spoke, Victor stretched out his claws again, trying to catch Stark.
But Strucker just smiled faintly, "You can try, Hydra will never accept threats, even if it concerns my life."
After saying that, he turned to look at Macka and said with a smile: "Now, let your leader decide. I want to hear your leader's answer more than yours."
Maika's face darkened and he fell silent.
If they agreed, they would have to carry out a mission that was obviously extremely dangerous, and if they agreed, they would probably die in the Middle East.
If they refused, Charles and his friends would be completely finished, including everyone in the shelter.
For a moment, Maca was also in a dilemma.
He turned to Logan, wanting to ask for his opinion.
Logan was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "We can't give up on anyone in the shelter!"
Although the mission may be dangerous, if it involves teaching them, Logan can take the risk!
"Logan..."
Victor looked at him with a frown and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Logan.
He knew what Victor was thinking, so he captured Stark and threatened the Hydra people to release him.
This trick might be useful for others, but it seems a bit childish for Hydra. They are a bunch of lunatics. Such an action will not only fail to bring back the professor, but may even put their lives in direct danger.
Now that the key is still in Stark's hands, they can't take any risks.
Any conflict will only cause harm to the professors.
Although they were very reluctant, they had no choice but to agree now.
"We can help you."
After getting Logan's nod, Maca also said: "But after completing the mission, you must ensure the safety of the others in the shelter and release them!"
"Wise choice."
Stark smiled and nodded, gave them an admiring look, waved his hand, took a file bag from the soldier beside him and handed it to Logan and the others.
"This is the location and content of the mission. I will only give you one week. We will meet here in a week. If I can't wait for you, I'm sorry. I will bury the bodies of those people here for you."
He said to everyone in a harmless manner: "I wish you all the best."
After saying that, he turned and walked into the forest. Inside the farm, dozens of Hydra soldiers ran out and followed him, leaving the farm together, leaving behind Hydra corpses all over the ground.
Looking at their backs, everyone's eyes were cold and they clenched their fists tightly.
It feels very unpleasant to be threatened by someone who catches your weak spot!
"These damn guys!"
Victor angrily punched the tree trunk beside him, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that Charles and the others were still in this guy's hands, he would definitely have torn this guy into pieces!
Beside him, everyone had a gloomy look on their faces.
"How did the Hydra people find this place?!"
Marcos spoke with a gloomy face. He was not surprised that the shelter was discovered, but what was strange was why Hydra discovered them and why Hydra came after them.
If it was the Patrol or SHIELD, he wouldn't be that surprised, after all, they had conflicts of their own.
But why would the Hydra people come? !
You know, they rarely had any entanglement with Hydra before!
"There is no absolutely safe place for us in this world."
Macka sighed helplessly. As a mutant, he had the ability to fascinate others, but he also had to endure more suffering, especially in the current situation, where anyone could become their enemy. After shaking his head helplessly, Macka turned to look at Moira and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen."
Moira nodded helplessly, "I can understand. After all, it's not your problem if you're targeted by others."
After saying that, she looked around the farm. At this time, the outskirts of the farm were full of corpses and the remains of Hydra soldiers were everywhere.
“Is this farm still habitable now?”
She needed to settle her own people before she could consider other things for Maika and the others.
Maca nodded, his hands flashing with golden light, and he used his power to create a big pit. Without saying a word, he threw all the remains of the Hydra into it, and then covered the pit. All the blood-stained soil was also renewed by Maca's power and covered with a layer of new soil.
"Okay, call them up."
After doing this, Maca let out a breath and walked into the shelter.
Moira followed Logan and the others back to the convoy, drove to pick everyone up, and temporarily settled them on the farm.
It was already evening and everyone began to prepare dinner on the farm. Smoke slowly rose, but the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
Soon, Moira's people prepared dinner.
One of Moira's men personally walked up to Logan and Victor with two meals.
"The meal is ready, let's eat something." He looked at the two people with frowns on their faces and spoke carefully.
Logan and Victor just looked at him, shook their heads and pushed the food back, "Let others eat, we are not hungry."
After saying that, Logan looked up and glanced around, and found that Maca was not in this temporary restaurant. He frowned, then stood up and walked towards Maca's office.
Victor also stood up immediately and followed Logan in silence.
The two knocked on the door of Maca's office, and after entering, they found that they were not the only ones who had no appetite. Marcos and Moira were also there. They sat in Maca's office with gloomy faces. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was very depressing for a while.
After all, such a big thing happened, and everyone in the shelter was in danger, so Marcos and the others naturally couldn't eat.
After all, they came to the farm a long time ago and have deeper feelings with other people on the farm, so they are naturally worried about their safety.
As for Moira, she was also thinking about helping Maca and the others. After all, Maca had just helped them escape, so this time she could just consider it as a reward.
Logan and Victor sat on the sofa. Everyone looked at each other in silence. The only sound in the entire office was breathing.
In silence, Macka opened the file left by Strucker, flipped through it, took a deep breath, and broke the deadlock of silence. "The file says that Hydra has arranged everything, and we can take the plane they arranged to the mission site tomorrow afternoon."
It can be seen that Stark is very anxious about the thing in the Middle East. He doesn't even leave Logan and the others any time to prepare and will set off tomorrow afternoon.
Logan took the document from Maca's hand and took a quick look at it, then looked up at Maca and said, "I suggest that we have someone keep an eye on Hydra's movements. Maybe we can find the place where Charles and the others are being held."
After all, there are more than a hundred mutants on the farm, and Logan doesn't believe they can all be transferred away in a short period of time.
According to his guess, the professor and others were most likely being held nearby.
It would be best if they could find their hiding place. At least it would ensure that even if the mission failed, they would have a chance to rescue Charles and the others.
In the face of Logan's proposal, Macka fell silent. After a long while, he spoke: "Under the last resort, we'd better not anger Hydra. Those guys are a bunch of lunatics. No one can guarantee what they will do. If they find out that we are trying to track them down, they may hurt our people."
After all, it was Hydra, and keeping promises was just a luxury for them.
Victor looked at Maca and snorted, "Don't be such a coward, okay? If we keep forbearing, it will only make those guys more arrogant!"
"Do not impulse."
Marcos on the side shook his head and said, "What Macka said makes sense. Now that Hydra holds the lives of others in our hands, we should be more cautious in everything we do."
He didn't want anything to happen to anyone in the shelter.
In his eyes, everyone in the shelter is a relative!
"I think you should focus on the Hydra mission. If the mission fails, Strucker will definitely not let your people go."
Moira spoke, pointing to the document in Logan's hand, and then added: "You helped me, and now you are in danger, I should help you too. I will go with you on this mission."
She is not the kind of person who would be ungrateful. Right now Maca and his team are short of manpower, and her joining is indeed a great help to them.
"grateful."
Maca nodded and thanked Moira. He really needed help from others now.
After he finished speaking, he paused, took a deep breath and said, "This operation will be carried out by the five of us present here, and the rest of you will stay on the farm first. After all, too many people will make the target too big, which will be disadvantageous to us."
Although there are more than a hundred people brought by Moira on the farm, not many of them have combat capabilities, so someone must stay behind to protect their safety.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Moira also said: "I will let my people keep an eye out for any traces of Hydra nearby, as a safety precaution. It would be best if we can find where your people are being held. If not, we can only hope that the Hydra people will keep their promise."
After a moment of silence, Maca nodded, "Okay, let them be careful."
……
At night, Logan and Victor sat outside the house with barbecue and wine on the table in front of them.
They didn't have dinner, and mealtime had long passed, with nothing left in the makeshift canteen.
Victor had just caught a rabbit in the woods and simply grilled it. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be enough for them to eat, but now they were not in the mood to eat, so they just wanted to fill their stomachs a little.
The two men sat opposite each other at the table and clinked glasses, with no joy in drinking at all and only sad looks on their faces.
The professor and Caliban could be in danger at any time, which made them both extremely worried.
Even Victor felt uncomfortable at this moment.
He had not known the professor for a very long time, but he liked the kind old man very much. Being with them made him feel at home.
Just as the two were lost in thought, a stone suddenly flew towards them from the woods.
"who!"
Logan felt the stone coming at him and was startled. He stretched out his hand to swat the stone away and turned his head to look into the woods.
I saw a familiar figure flash by in the woods.
Although it was dark at night, Logan still recognized the man's identity. It was the weirdo Hans.
Obviously, that guy seemed to want to say something to him again.
Without saying a word, Logan stood up suddenly and chased into the woods.
Victor on the other side was stunned, looking at Logan's back in confusion, but he still chased after him and asked, "Where are you going? Wait for me."
As he got older, his perception was no longer as sharp as Logan's, and he did not find any trace of Hans.
Soon, Logan and Victor stopped deep in the woods, with Hans standing not far from them.
"Sheep thief."
Only then did Victor see Hans' figure. He frowned and muttered, but did not take any immediate action.
Logan had previously told them that Hans would come looking for him.
Hans stood in front of the two of them, looking calm, and asked, "Have all the people in the shelter been captured by Hydra?"
Logan frowned and stared into Hans' eyes.
He felt that this guy seemed to know everything. The farm had just been attacked and he had just returned not long ago, but he had already caught up.
Victor on the other side was furious when he heard this, and shouted coldly: "How do you know this? Are you in cahoots with Hydra?"
"Calm down Victor!"
Logan reached out and patted Victor on the shoulder, then turned to look at Hans, frowned and asked, "Do you know something?"
He didn't believe that Hans came to him just to make fun of him, maybe he knew some hidden secrets.
Hans nodded silently, "Let me show you a video first, and you will understand after watching it."
After saying that, he took out his cell phone, walked in front of Logan and the other man, and clicked on a video to play.
Watching the content in the video, Victor and Logan were stunned at first, and then their pupils suddenly shrank, and their expressions suddenly became solemn. The content in the video can only be described as horrifying!
