Chapter 418: Recruitment
Editor: Atlas Studios
Gathering manpower was something that was urgently needed now. A new brain domain magnifying instrument could magnify Charles's ability and let him conduct a search to find the evolvers hidden among ordinary people.
Charles and Eric began to gather people without stopping. They also found Wolverine, but they were scared off by a single sentence. However, they had just left when Wesley arrived and walked into the bar.
"Logan, you're still the same." Wesley sat down beside him and Logan looked over impatiently.
"And you are?" Logan asked suspiciously.
"Do you remember that Marine Corps selection? We met at that time. My appearance changed, but you didn't." Wesley asked for a glass of wine, then took out a cigar and lit it. He smoked slowly.
"So it's you. You're so old. Time passes so quickly!" Logan picked up his glass and drank it in one gulp. Wesley called another for him.
"Yes, time passes so quickly, but you are still the same, but your personality should have changed a little, and you are no longer in the army. This is good."
"What's so good about it? A lot of things have changed. What do you want from me? Are those two little guys your people?"
"You can say that, but I don't have the energy to guide them anymore. They can only rely on themselves now. You're right, a lot of things have changed now. There are more and more people like you who need me to do something, so I want to recruit you again. What do you think?"
"Recruitment? I have been called up once, but the result is not very good. Do you also want me to keep killing?"
"Of course not. It's impossible for you not to know me. I like peace, don't I?" Wesley said with a smile.
"What's that for?"
"Those children need a good guide. Maybe you are not outstanding, but you can at least give them some help. Living long is also a kind of capital. It is not too much to say that I have seen a lot. I have become an organization, X-Men. The two children just now are in charge in the future. They need the help of an old hand, and you are the most suitable candidate. Of course, they do not have to make a decision now. They need to be tempered. Now is my test for them."
"Aren't you afraid they'll mess things up?"
"I'm not afraid. Because I'm still alive, I won't mess things up, but I'll die eventually. Although I'll prepare a new supervisor for them, it will take time. How about it? Instead of wandering around with nothing to do, it's better to join in. After all, this matter is also for your own future."
Logan was silent. Wesley hadn't drafted him and his brother all those years ago. Should he agree to it now? What would have happened if they could have worked for Wesley all those years ago? "Why didn't you draft us in the first place?"
"Are you still holding a grudge about this?" Wesley took a sip of wine and then said, "I can see that you were wild and difficult to tame at that time. You needed time to sharpen yourselves. You left home and wandered when you were young, and your family inheritance was very serious. You didn't have enough time to wash everything away. Now you are tired of killing, right? And the Sword Thorn Tiger is not tired of it. If I recruit you, you can only hide the killing. That's not good."
"You know us well?"
"There are always clues when you want something. The world is only so big, and it's easy to have power. How is it? How's your thinking?"
"Sure, at least I have a job. I have no reason to refuse, but there is a guy who will keep an eye on me."
"I know, this person thinks he is very secretive and borrows the power of the army. But why doesn't he think about what can be hidden from me in the army? But now is not the time to deal with him. Someone will deal with him in the future. You can rest assured."
"Okay, then I'll go with you now."
"Good, come with me first. Those children need to be sharpened. It will be better if you join again after this. Do you want another drink?"
The gathering of personnel was complete. A group of unusual young people had gathered to demonstrate their abilities. However, they had used the research facility of the Central Intelligence Agency in a mess, and they were unaware of it. Suddenly, they could show themselves in front of people and vent their frustration. However, they ignored the damage caused to their surroundings. Charles was very angry about this. He also understood why Wesley had established the X-Men General Headquarters.
Just like how ordinary people need the police, ordinary people also have a lot of crimes, not to mention the talented evolvers. Once they commit crimes, how much harm will they do? Then what X-Men needs to do is to catch them and bring them back for trial according to the law. Now, they need to be educated and make them realize their ability correctly. What can be done and what cannot be done. The establishment of the school is also imminent.
After educating these ignorant fools, he left. However, what he did not expect was that Sebastian Shaw led a surprise attack here, took the angel away, and killed one person.
Wesley didn't make a move. Since it was a test, he needed these things. He knew all about being a general, just as he knew about Phil Coulson's original sacrifice.
"Isn't that a little cold?" Logan asked.
"Cold? Maybe. As a general, I know that soldiers will have sacrifices, but I can't think about that. If I'm afraid of their sacrifice, then more people will die. What should I choose? There is no absolute justice in this world. There is only my own judgment. That's my judgment. I said I won't do anything, so I won't do anything. It's all up to them. If it doesn't work, I can only change the candidate."
"I can't beat you. If they don't pass, who are you going to choose? Mutants… Oh, no, they're called Evolvers now. Do you have anyone else?"
"Yes, but I don't want to choose him. He is a person who is destined to leave. If I choose him, then things will be very troublesome in the future." Wesley was talking about himself. It was the best choice, but he was destined to go home. Once he leaves this universe, evolution is another big problem. Although this is not Wesley's home, after all, life is too long. He doesn't want to leave a mess.
"Who made you trust me so much?" Logan asked doubtfully, because he had always trusted only himself, and Wesley did trust him. But now was not the time. The identity he had prepared for himself was illegitimate. Although it was a lie, no one else could expose it. He could not let Ruan Ling know, not for the rest of his life.
