Chapter 25 The Expecting Audience
“Haha, are we about to start?”
Watching the preview advertisement, countless viewers were in high spirits.
“Last time the video host couldn’t send out a follow-up, but this time I can finally see a follow-up!”
“Yes, I can finally see the scene of the mutant being captured, which makes me unable to sleep.”
“Let’s take a guess as to when the mutant will be caught. I’ll bet twenty minutes~”
“I think it shouldn’t take long, about ten minutes.”
From the preview ads that appeared, they could see the momentum of this event, which directly gave them confidence.
No one thought they would lose, they all felt that just because of the speed of time, sooner or later the mutant boy would be caught!
Just as people were looking forward to the capture scenes that would be played later, some of the mutants watching also became worried.
“Hope he can escape!”
They were praying in their hearts, praying that the compatriot could successfully escape.
At this time, both Professor X and Magneto noticed the live broadcast one after another.
Professor X looked worried.
Magneto’s face darkened, and he became increasingly disgusted with ordinary humans.
No matter what they thought, they no longer had any hope for the boy's safety.
No one knows better than them that with the government’s powerful power and sufficient preparations, the young man must not be able to escape.
Professor X sighed and was already thinking about whether he could get the boy out through connections.
Meanwhile, Magneto was thinking about whether to plan another terrorist attack to teach ordinary humans a lesson.
While countless people were paying attention to this live broadcast, Kenny and others' team had already surrounded the target location.
Thirty well-armed soldiers got off the armored vehicle, and some police cars followed behind them to protect them.
More than a hundred meters away from the target, the soldiers chatted while making preparations.
“Hey, Lelian, do you think we can catch the target this time?”
A handsome soldier asked the person next to him hesitantly.
Leillian, who was asked by him, glanced at him, with a confident smile on his face.
“Don’t worry, we know the target’s information very well and have already planned the combat operations. The target cannot escape!”
Before coming, they watched the videos of the mutant battles many times. They knew the opponent's abilities very well, and the think tank also arranged a comprehensive battle plan. How could they lose?
Hearing this, the inquiring soldier also showed a confident expression on his face.
That’s right, it’s just about teleporting and emitting black energy waves, what’s so difficult about it!
While some soldiers were talking, Captain George and Captain Kenny were also talking in the distance.
Captain George suddenly said, "The strength of No. 37 will not become stronger again, right?"
Kenny glanced at him and immediately understood his worries.
He shook his head and said with a smile on his face, "Just like the commander said, being able to hide two abilities and part of his strength has reached the limit of that brat. He has nothing to hide."
"We have figured out the strength of No. 37, and we are well prepared this time. He can't escape!"
“That’s right.” Captain George showed a relaxed smile on his face.
At this time, Kenny continued, "Don't mention it, we also brought seven sentry robots."
He glanced at several safes not far away, and his face was very confident.
Speaking of the sentry robots, Captain George glanced at the box containing the sentry robots in the distance, with some confusion in his eyes, "Why not bring those giant sentry robots, but bring out this spider-type sentry robot."
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his words.
Hearing this, Captain Kenny glanced at him speechlessly and said angrily, "You guys, you don't need funds to make a giant sentry robot?"
“It’s enough to get these approvals this time.”
“To deal with No. 37, we don’t need that kind of sentry, and he doesn’t deserve it. These sentry robots are enough to catch him.”
Listening to his words, Captain George nodded, "So that's it."
"That's right. These seven sentry robots are enough to deal with No. 37." At this time, the beautiful Irina, who was standing not far away from them, heard the words and showed a look of interest on her face.
“Oh, Sentinel robot?”
“I heard that you are still researching it, and you have already produced some finished products?”
Irina chuckled, "Just in time, let the audience see the sentry robot this time, maybe the ratings will increase!"
Looking at Irina, Kenny and the other two didn't say anything, so they acquiesced to her filming.
The video that was posted online some time ago did have a big impact. This time, through the successful arrest, we can tell everyone that mutants are not that scary, and they are not invincible!
Let everyone learn to be confident!
This is also the main reason why they allowed Irina to follow the filming.
While they were setting up the battle site, they also attracted the attention of many passers-by along the way. Everyone looked surprised, wondering what department was up to what tricks.
Drills?
Amid doubts and curiosity, even though they were warned to stay away, people still followed from a distance, and some even watched from a distance with telescopes.
Some distance away from here, Chris, who had rescued Su Yao, was also coming in stride.
“Boy, you have to hold on!”
Ever since he saw the trailer not long ago, he felt a thump in his heart, knowing that the child was in danger.
Although he had seen the child's ability before and knew that it was okay, but when faced with so many armed forces surrounding him, what was the use of his little ability, and how could he possibly escape?
So, now he rushed towards that place with all his strength, thinking that he might be able to help. If he could, he would help the child escape.
As he rushed towards that side, Captain George and others also started taking action.
Bright lights shined on the bar, making the street as bright as daylight.
In the bar.
Wolverine and others who were talking also noticed the panic of the crowd.
“Run quickly!”
“The police are surrounding this place!”
“Oh my god, I don’t want to be affected!”
The crowd screamed in panic and rushed toward the exit crazily.
“What happened?” Valentin looked confused.
“I’ll go out and take a look.” Wolverine Logan said solemnly.
Relying on his self-healing ability, he strode towards the entrance of the bar.
Valentin and Otto looked at each other and followed suit without understanding what was going on.
Before following him, Otto turned to Su Yao and shouted, "Hey, follow him quickly, let's go take a look together."
Looking at their leaving figures, Su Yao's eyes darkened slightly.
Unlike Logan and others who knew nothing, he quickly guessed the reason.
“Those people should be the ones who came for us!”
He was thinking about whether to use space transfer to try to escape from this place.
A few seconds later, he decided to take a look at the situation from a distance and consider whether to run away.
He followed Logan and others from a distance.
As soon as he reached the exit, his expression changed slightly. He saw that the surrounding area outside was as bright as day, and beams of bright lights shone from the roof of the car in the distance.
He saw police cars one after another and well-armed soldiers. A rough estimate was that there were at least dozens of them!
He has already begun to think about how he can escape safely.
Just as he was planning the route, Wolverine Logan and others' faces changed when they saw the battle outside.
What happened?
Such a big battle?
In addition to being surprised and suspicious, they were also a little guilty, fearing that these guys were here to cause trouble for them.
While they were having different thoughts, George and others who were dozens of meters away made a move.
