Kapitel 27: Chapter 27: Gabriela’s worries, he is just an Uber driver
In the factory area next to the railway tracks, there are cracks in the iron walls. From time to time, dust and sand sweep past the iron walls, making a clanking sound.
The old electric fan in the living room kept creaking.
Logan sat in front of the table, measured the holes in the iron table, and tried to repair them with the wood on the table.
"Logan, how did you break it?"
Caliban knelt down and watched Logan's movements, and couldn't help but ask: "Also, how did you do it?"
The thickness of the iron table is not small. To make such a hole, at least one needs to shoot it with a large-caliber rifle.
Of course, Logan's steel claw is also capable of penetrating the table, but the shape of the hole is a regular circle, not a claw mark, which is obviously not the work of the steel claw.
"this..."
Logan hesitated, debating whether to tell Caliban about his new abilities.
"It seems that Logan has something to say to us."
Charles Xavier, who was watching TV, noticed Logan's hesitation and pushed his wheelchair over with interest.
Logan glanced at the professor hesitantly, but before he could speak, Caliban on the side shouted excitedly: "Great, Logan, are you finally planning to leave this hellish place?"
Caliban never dreamed of leaving this hellish place. Not only did he suffer from the high temperature environment of the desert with year-round ultraviolet rays, but more importantly, he believed that he still had value, and the remaining decades of his life could not be wasted like this. Here.
"no."
Logan shook his head decisively. He wanted to leave, but now was not the time.
"This is so disappointing."
Caliban felt disappointed and sat helplessly on the chair, boredly playing with the wooden block that Logan used to repair the table.
Logan ignored the lost Caliban, pondered for a moment and finally said: "I have awakened a new ability."
He decided to tell the professor and Caliban about his awakening of heat vision.
Although the awakening of the heat vision should not be revealed to others, after all, it is a killer move, a killer weapon that can turn the tide of the battle in times of crisis.
But in the past few years, Logan and Professor Caliban have relied on each other, like close relatives, and no one in the world is more trustworthy than them.
"What?"
The professor and Caliban were stunned at first and looked at Logan with wide eyes.
"This is impossible, Logan, you are two hundred years old, and you have long passed the age of awakening your abilities."
Caliban looked Logan up and down, shook his head and said, "I used to be a black marketeer and have seen many mutants, but I have never seen anyone awakening mutant abilities in a nursing home."
Logan didn't speak. He concentrated, his eyes gradually became hot, and his pupils were red.
The next second, a blazing beam of light shot out, and the stuffy room was instantly covered in high temperatures.
Bang!
The beam easily penetrated the table, and an identical small hole appeared next to the hole that had not been repaired.
Snap!
The piece of wood Caliban was playing with clattered to the ground. His pale face was filled with disbelief as he stared dumbly at the newly added holes on the table.
He opened his mouth wide and said: "Scott's Cyclops? No, Cyclops is not like this. Logan, what kind of ability do you have?"
"Thermal sight."
Logan responded truthfully, "It relies on the eyes to fire high-temperature lasers. If it is used at full strength, it will be stronger than it is now."
"Oh my God."
Caliban touched his bald forehead, looked at the professor beside him and asked, "Professor, is this normal?"
Charles stared at the holes on the table, remained silent for a while and said, "Theoretically, it's possible, but... this is also the first time I've seen it."
"I also think it's an unexpected surprise."
Logan knew that no one in the world understood the X gene better than the professor, and his whole life revolved around the "X gene".
However, the professor has been studying the X gene for many years, and has seen countless mutants at Xavier World Academy, and has seen many various cases, but there has never been any case like Logan, who can still awaken at the age of two hundred. Mutants with new abilities.
Most mutants awaken their mutant abilities in their teenage or young adulthood. The younger they are, the higher the probability of awakening. As they grow older, the probability of awakening decreases year by year.
However, it can be said that Logan is the only one in history who awakens new abilities in old age.
"I only woke up recently and have only used it twice so far."
Logan spoke truthfully to the two of them.
Charles looked at Logan and fell into deep thought for a long time before speaking again: "It may be that your recent mentality has changed, stimulating the potential in your body, and you have awakened this new ability."
Logan was a little confused before, and even had the idea of suicide more than once. Charles knew that he was carrying an Adamant metal bullet that could end his life at any time.
But in the last conversation in the water tower, Charles noticed a change in Logan's thoughts. He even proposed the idea of finding a gathering place for mutants, which showed that his mentality was changing.
Most of mutants' abilities are related to emotions.
Emotions stimulate the potential in genes, thereby inducing the awakening of mutant abilities.
It is very likely that after Logan's mentality changed, his own emotions also changed, so he had the new abilities now. Although this idea is far-fetched, Charles feels that this is the only reasonable explanation for Logan's awakening of new abilities.
"By the way, you haven't told anyone about this, right?"
Charles stared at Logan seriously.
"No."
Logan shook his head, "You are the only two people who know about my awakening of new abilities."
"That's good."
Charles breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a serious expression: "This matter must not be known to outsiders!"
As he spoke, he turned to look at Caliban.
Caliban nodded in understanding.
Logan also asked the professor to relax, "Don't worry, I will hide it well."
He was still able to awaken new abilities at the age of two hundred. If word spread about this, it would definitely make the biologists in white coats in the laboratory go crazy.
At that time, countless forces will immediately surround this broken factory area, and even a drop of his blood will be frantically studied by the group of biologists like a treasure.
Ding dong!
The cell phone beside the table suddenly buzzed with a message alert.
An unread text message appears on the screen.
[Nurse]: When can we see you?
This was Gabriela, and Logan gave her a codename just in case.
Logan picked up the phone and replied: "In a few days, now is not the time."
After sending the text message, Logan turned off the screen and his expression gradually became serious.
After helping Chris complete two tasks, he had enough money to leave Santa Fe City.
Perhaps, it's time to think about how to get rid of the Lawrence family and Donald.
…
…
…
At the same time, in a very shabby cheap hotel.
[Logan]: In a few days, now is not the time.
Gabriela looked at the text messages on the screen and clutched her phone anxiously with both hands.
She has been staying in this hotel for several days. She has to be wary of the unfamiliar faces around her every day. Her mind is always in a state of tension. She even dares not sleep too much. This kind of life makes her look exhausted.
At this time, a red ball rolled to his feet, and then a young white hand stretched out and picked up the red ball.
The girl squatted on the ground with her head raised, holding a comic in her other hand. The cover showed Wolverine taking several children in a paradise.
She stood up and pointed to the comic, "When will we go to the Garden of Eden?"
Gabriela tried her best to put some softness on her exhausted face, and reached out to touch the girl's hair, "We have to wait a few more days, and then Wolverine will take you there."
"That hero?"
Laura touched Wolverine in the comics.
In the picture, Wolverine is standing on a boulder, wearing a classic yellow suit, his eyes are full of bravery without fear of danger, and sharp claws extend from the clenched fists, scattering metal. The silver shines brightly, and the majestic body is like a warrior who dares to fight against everything.
"Um."
Gabriela smiled and nodded, but her eyes gradually dimmed.
That hero?
Maybe it was once.
She wasn't sure whether the current Wolverine still had the same bloodiness as before.
A full week has passed since she came here and contacted Wolverine, but he still refused to meet, and even the content of the text message reply was more like a malicious tease.
This forced her to think carefully about whether Wolverine was really reliable. Maybe he was not as great as the comics said.
And during this period, she also found out from other Uber drivers that James was now a heavy drinker, and his violent temper even made it difficult for him to make a friend with whom he could drink.
Perhaps, the former Wolverine has grown old.
Now he is just an Uber driver with no hope in life.
Maybe his request for help was just for fun while he was drunk...
