Marvel's Dark Shadows
Chapter 182 Lack of people
A camouflage jeep was slowly moving forward on a road overgrown with weeds. The arrival of Colonel Stryker in person made Logan feel a little excited. However, Xiaomai had specially instructed him not to show it. Just like Xiao Mai sitting in the back of the car, he closed his eyes and meditated, but his clenched fists revealed that Logan was not as calm as he appeared at this time.
Xiao Mai sat on the side with his arms folded, occasionally opening his eyes to look at the road conditions, and then closing his eyes. They were heading to a secret military base. Of course, Stryker had the good sense not to use the hood trick on the two of them. There were many Even if a mutant is blindfolded, he can still determine the route back. For example, Logan can smell all the way back through scent.
Not putting hoods on the two men slightly won Logan's favor, which made him feel respected. It was still during World War II, and there were no politicians and media who pushed for trouble. The status of mutants was not as low as in the future world. Many mutants People rely on their own abilities to earn a living.
This was also the confidence that Stryker dared to recruit mutants as his subordinates. In fact, many countries formed their own mutant troops at this time. After all, they were one-in-a-million super humans, and they were very popular as agents or sharp knife troops.
"Actually, I think the conditions are pretty good."
Logan tilted his head slightly and whispered to Xiao Mai in a consultative manner.
"We have a black household registration, so we don't have to be picky. They took us to the military base to visit first."
"Logan, don't let down your guard and dare to take us to visit the secret base. That only shows that they don't want to let us leave at all."
Xiao Mai opened his eyes again and looked around at the scenery outside the car window. The soldier in front of him drove the car with a serious face, as if he didn't hear the exchange between the two people behind him at all.
"Yeah"
Logan thought silently for a moment, finally agreed with Xiao Mai's statement, and the excitement in his body disappeared.
"If we join forces, they may not be able to stop us."
Hearing that Luo Gen believed his words unconditionally, Xiao Mai showed a smile. Luo Gen really wanted to join the army, but before Xiao Mai expressed his clear intention, Luo Gen could go to Xiao Mai without hesitation. Considering the direction of guidance, it seems that the favorability level has been fully increased.
The jeep slowly stopped at the entrance of a hidden cave, and horns sounded all around: "You have entered the area where the military base is located. Please prove your identity."
"Don't prove it, this is our guest, just open the door."
Stryker's voice sounded through the loudspeaker, but it was a little distorted. He should have said it while standing at the door of the monitoring room.
"Good sir."
The iron door buzzed and slowly slid upward.
Xiao Mai's eyes fluctuated for a moment, and he stretched out his hand to explore Logan's butt. As the black energy released and closed, a small square chip appeared in his palm.
"Even I am not vigilant enough, Logan, and this also proves how false the goodwill released by the other party is."
Seeing Logan looking back in disbelief and looking back and forth between his butt and Xiao Mai's palm, Xiao Mai said lightly.
The jeep passed through the iron gate and drove in a tunnel full of water for a while. Then it suddenly stopped. The sound of mechanical operation came to their ears. The entire jeep was lifted up by a slowly rising platform and moved halfway up. The place on the mountainside rises.
Then, the sudden bright light made Logan squint his eyes.
"Welcome to visit, Mr. Meyer, Mr. Logan."
Colonel Stryker stood outside the jeep, smiling at the two men with a glass of champagne.
Logan and Xiao Mai pushed open the car door and walked out. Xiao Mai stepped forward and shook hands with Stryker: "It's an honor, General."
"Don't make this a joke, I'm just an ordinary soldier."
Stryker blinked, the young man's unique vitality had not yet left this ruthless executioner.
"Such a large base is not ordinary at all. Can you introduce the use of this base?"
Xiao Mai narrowed his eyes slightly, because he did not sense the presence of life signals beyond conventional soldiers in this building hidden in the mountains. Logically speaking, there should be a large number of mutant agents here.
"Well, I'm ashamed to say that there are actually some powerful people in my family. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to become a colonel at such a young age. But I have almost no meritorious achievements, so I want to do something big."
"I want to form a group of capable people like these two gentlemen to contribute to this country and the war. Of course, it will also add some chips to my future in the army."
"You are the first batch of people to come here. I have been searching for a long time before this. Unfortunately, except for some powerful mercenaries, I have not found a few mutant humans whose abilities are very useful on the battlefield."
Xiao Mai was a little surprised when he heard this, because he could tell that Stryker had not deceived him about this matter.
"That's not the case. Hasn't the country thought about using the power of mutants to go to the battlefield?"
Stryker glanced at Xiao Mai in surprise: "Sir, he is actually a man with extraordinary vision. Unfortunately, people nowadays generally believe that mutant genes are a disease. There are even many families who directly give birth to mutant children. They were thrown into orphanages because they thought these children were deformed.”
"Especially those senators who are playing tricks on the political power. They hope to win over the votes of mutant humans. Therefore, when it comes to joining the army, they either do not force mutants to join the army or do not allow mutants to join the army. There are really very few organized forces. .”
Xiao Mai nodded silently. Politicians, indeed, only have merit and votes in their eyes. Now they are wooing the mutant community for votes. Little do they know that such differential treatment directly divides the boundaries between mutants and ordinary people. Among ordinary people, There is a high probability that the small-minded people will hate mutants because of this. They worry not about the scarcity but the inequality. Ordinary people recruit soldiers, while mutants can only do nothing during the war.
In the future, in order to win over the votes of ordinary people, they will begin to control the media, discriminate and persecute the mutant community. The more ruthlessly they persecute, the more votes they will gain from ordinary people.
But Xiao Mai just complained about it in his head, because it fulfilled Xiao Mai's wishes. When he needs to study mutants in the future, it couldn't be more convenient in this world.
"General Stryker is short of manpower."
Xiao Mai deliberately emphasized the word manpower, which actually refers to mutant warriors.
"Of course Mr. Meyer has capable friends?"
"No, but I know where most of the mutants in this city are hiding."
Xiao Mai started ordering the Black Shadow Corps to be distributed throughout Europe and the United States three years ago.
