Chapter 327

"I just feel a little uncomfortable."

Clarice said, "Roddy, you said that we mutants have fallen into this state now. Is it related to us?"

"Why do you think so?"

Roddy looked at her and asked.

"I just saw the appearance of those people just now, and I was thinking about this question in my heart." Clarice said, "I used to think that the reason why mutants became what they are now is all because of the persecution of ordinary humans, but when I saw the appearance of those people just now, I suddenly realized that it is possible that the evil of mutants that those people said is actually real?"

"Our existence, to a certain extent, does bring instability to this society, so ordinary people will reject us."

Clarice had some doubts about the existence of the mutant community in her heart at this time.

In the past, she firmly believed that the mutant community was innocent and they were all persecuted.

But the scene she saw today made Clarice suddenly realize that the mutants were not as good as she thought in the past.

"You've gone from one extreme to another." Rody shook his head and said, "Clarice, you have to remember that whether it's a mutant or an ordinary person, everyone is the same."

"As an intelligent creature, there are good and bad ones."

"It doesn't mean that a person who is bullied is necessarily good. It may just be that his strength is not as good as the former, but in places you don't see, in fact, the bullied person is also bullying others who are weaker than himself."

"The same is true for mutants."

"Although mutants are the oppressed party in this world, there are also some cunning and treacherous people among them, but such people are always a minority. The people you just saw are just ignorant."

"Of course, ignorance and stupidity often bring trouble to people around you, so it's not wrong to stay away from such people as much as possible."

Clarice listened to Rody's words very seriously.

When Rody finished speaking, her little face also showed a thoughtful look.

After a while, Clarice seemed to have figured it out a little.

She nodded and said, "I think I understand. I used to think too highly of other mutants. It was because I thought too highly of them that I felt unable to accept the truth."

"But in fact, we are all ordinary people. No one can be so noble. Moreover, in such an environment, most mutants have basically not received any education, so they appear to be ignorant and stupid."

"Yes, that's right." Roddy nodded and said, "You can figure this out, which means you are a smart little girl."

Roddy smiled and touched Clarice's head.

Clarice, who is about 158 ​​cm tall, looks like a child next to Roddy, who is nearly 190 cm tall.

Although she is indeed still a child who has not yet reached adulthood.

"What little girl! I have grown up!"

Clarice pouted and said with a dissatisfied look on her face, "I am 17 years old this year, and I will be 18 years old next year!"

"Aren't you still a child now?"

Roddy laughed.

The two walked for a while and came to the outside of the safe house.

Here they met the X-Men.

There were also a few mutants who followed them and sneaked out.

Angel was here too.

She didn't participate in the previous events. In fact, she rarely left her post.

"Are you sure you want to leave now?"

Angel was pulling Ororo, as if persuading them to stay.

None of the mutants who followed him spoke at this moment.

There were probably only a dozen of them.

They looked better than the mutants in the safe house. At least their clothes were clean, and they were carrying almost new suitcases.

Obviously;

Smart people would live better than others no matter where they were.

Of course!

The premise was that these mutants, their abilities did not change their appearance much.

At most, like Clarisse, they could be hidden by some daily accessories and would not directly expose their mutant identities.

Otherwise.

No matter how smart they were, it would be useless!

What should be exposed would be exposed, and they would still be hungry and cold.

They lived a gloomy life day by day.

"Angel, it's not that we don't want to stay, but the situation inside is a bit complicated now."

Aurora is not a good-tempered person, but as the captain of the X-Men, she must control her temper.

You know;

When Professor X was still alive, Ororo was also the kind of person who would quarrel with others after a few words.

She is not much better than Logan and Lucas.

It's just that the burden on her shoulders is much heavier now. She has no choice but to suppress her temper and try to talk to others in a friendly manner.

But this does not mean that Ororo will tolerate and compromise on anything.

In fact, everyone has had a hard time in the past six years.

They, the X-Men, are no exception.

Six years ago, Professor X died, Scott died, and Jean chose to end her life because of the Dark Phoenix.

In the following two years, Ororo and Hank led the remaining people to hide from place to place.

Those two years were their darkest two years.

In the middle, Hank was arrested, and some mutants they were familiar with also met with accidents during this period!

The former mutant school became history, and the X-Men seemed to have become a joke!

In those dark days, they all supported each other and came to this day with difficulty.

But in six years, many things have changed.

They X-Men have also changed!

If it were in the past, even if Ororo and the others were unhappy, they would choose to stay and help these people through the difficulties0 .....

Because this is what Professor X has always taught them.

But now;

Having experienced too many separations and deaths, and seen too many major losses caused by the stupidity of some people, Ororo and the others have learned to be cruel when necessary.

"Angel, don't persuade me. I don't want to let the same thing happen again three years ago. I'm sorry I can't agree to you this time!"

Ororo refused Angel's persuasion with a hard heart.

When Angel heard Ororo mention the incident three years ago, he finally sighed and stopped trying to persuade her.

Three years ago, that incident was similar to today.

It was just that the X-Men escorted more people than today.

Hundreds of mutants evacuated an underground base.

Angel was among them at that time, and she also met Ororo and his team at that time.

And that evacuation was caused by some ignorant guys, which eventually led to their encounter with the Sentinel Task Force.

In the end, apart from the members of the X-Men, there were only a few dozen mutants who escaped alive!

As for the others?

They were either killed on the spot or captured by the Sentinel Task Force.

It was also after that incident that Ororo completely let go of his determination and would never blindly pour his kindness on everyone again.

Some people;

He should rot there!

No one should care about him, otherwise he will only hurt others and himself.

......

"I don't think anyone will come again, let's go now."

Logan didn't know when he had a new cigar in his mouth. He puffed out smoke and squinted his eyes to look into the distance.

I don't know if it was an illusion.

He had a bad feeling in his heart.

I always felt that something was going to happen today!

No one else had any objection to Logan's proposal.

The dozen mutants who followed him out would have no objection at all, and they were eager to leave here immediately.

"Clarice, Rody, do you want to go with me?"

Angel saw the two people behind the crowd at this time and asked.

"My ability is teleportation, I can help you."

Clarice said, looking at Rody and asked: "Roddy, do you want to go together?"

Roddy nodded, "I'll go with you, so that I can take care of you on the way."

In fact, Rody was planning to copy their mutant abilities.

As for those in the safe house?

Forget it!

A bunch of useless people.

Roddy was too lazy to copy their abilities 0.2.

It's easy to imagine that the abilities of that group of people are very rubbish.

If they were really powerful, they wouldn't be in such a miserable situation.

"What is your ability?"

Ororo looked at Rody and asked curiously.

Rody hooked his finger, and a lighter in Logan's pocket flew to his hand and was caught by him.

"Telekinesis!"

Ororo's eyes lit up. She was very familiar with this ability because her good friend Jean Grey also had the same ability in the past.

In fact;

Rody's telekinesis did come from Jean Grey.

"It's not a good habit to take other people's things."

Logan glanced at the lighter in Rody's hand and said lightly.

Rody smiled, threw it casually, and returned the lighter to him.

"Roddy is very powerful. When we left before, we encountered the Sentinel Task Force. If it weren't for Rody, I would have been caught by them long ago."

Clarisse said.

"Did you encounter the Sentinel Task Force before?!"

At this moment, everyone present looked at the two in surprise.

Obviously, they didn't expect that they could escape alive after encountering the Sentinel Task Force.

"Yes, there were four bad guys wearing Sentinel armor at that time, but their plane was blown up by Roddy."

Clarice nodded and said.
