Chapter 1 Tavern
1962
Tavern
Bang
The wine glass fell on the bar with a muffled sound.
"Hmm... this stuff is really hard to drink! It tastes like bitter almonds!"
Moon frowned and looked at the whiskey in the glass. No matter how many times he drank it, he was not used to it.
"That's because you don't know how to drink! This is good wine!"
Looking at Moon's frown, Logan smiled and continued to roast his cigar.
"Tsk, only you guys like to drink this stuff!"
Moon shrugged. He and Logan have known each other for three years. When he first came to this world three years ago, he was saved by Logan.
In these years, he followed Logan around the world and watched the people around him fall on the battlefield one after another, just like a war dog.
Fortunately, both of them are very special. They have powerful powers far beyond ordinary people, allowing them to survive the war safely.
Two young men came over, and one of them, who looked stronger, introduced himself:
"Excuse me, I'm Eric Lescher!"
"My name is Charles Xavier!" Another young man who looked very knowledgeable also said something.
But Logan was not interested in their self-introductions. He just thought they were hooligans looking for trouble. He took a puff of the cigar he had just lit and cursed:
"Fuck you!"
Seeing Logan say this, the two of them didn't want to make trouble and turned around to leave. ♦♦ ☞♦
"Wait!" Mu En stopped the two of them, and then looked at Logan: "Let them talk, I think they are quite interesting."
Mu En's obscure words aroused Logan's curiosity. He knew what Mu En meant by interesting.
"Do you have something to do with us, or do you want to fight with us?"
As he said that, he turned around and looked at the two of them. Although he didn't know who these two guys were, they made Mu En feel interesting, which meant that these two guys were the same as them.
Mu En leaned on the bar and smiled at the two young men in front of him.
When the two guys approached, he noticed their unusualness, and after hearing their self-introduction, he immediately understood who the two guys were.
"Tell me, what do you want to talk to us about?"
Looking at the smiling Mu En, Charles's face became solemn.
"Eric, I... I can't sense him!"
This was the first time he encountered such a situation. The other party was right in front of him, but he couldn't sense him with his psychic ability, as if the other party didn't exist at all.
Eric, who was standing aside, was also shocked by Charles' words.
He knew that Charles' ability was powerful, and they could find this place by relying on Charles' ability. ♦♦ ♦♦
But now, Charles couldn't sense the other party, which made him feel incredible.
"It seems that you have something important to do, so let's talk over there!"
Pointing to a quieter corner of the tavern, Mu En and Logan walked over with the two of them.
As soon as he sat down, Eric said:
"We need help, and you may be able to help us!"
As he said, he also controlled the metal pendant on Mu En's chest, letting the pendant float slowly.
Seeing his pendant floating, Mu En raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to press the suspended pendant.
"Nice trick, but it's not suitable to show here!"
Mu En meant something and cut off the magnetic force that controlled the pendant.
After finding that he couldn't control Mu En's pendant, Eric finally understood Charles' feelings. They were not much better than ordinary people in front of Mu En.
"Now let's talk about the commission. The price we offer is not cheap!"
Although he knew who the two people in front of him were, it didn't affect Mu En's making money. It was impossible to ask them to help with just a few words.
Seeing that Mu En and Logan only recognized money, Charles and the others looked at each other. If they only recognized money, it would be too easy. The CIA people were willing to pay the money!
"So how much does it cost to hire you?" Charles asked.
"That depends on what you need us to do. If we are bodyguards, it's 50,000.
If you want us to enter the battlefield, it's 100,000; if we want to fight with our own kind, it depends on the situation!"
The price quoted by Mu En was not cheap, but as long as the two could meet their expectations, the money was not a problem at all.
"Okay, at least 500,000 per person. We are fighting against a powerful fellow who is planning a war that threatens the world!"
500,000?
This is not the era in the future where you can only hear the sound of hundreds of millions. 500,000 is a very generous reward. Mu En and Logan looked at each other and accepted this employment.
"I hope we have a pleasant cooperation!"
He smiled and shook hands with the two. The price of 500,000 really impressed him.
Since the cooperation was agreed, several people got up and left.
Mu En and Logan needed to prepare some things. As for Charles and Eric, they needed to go to the location of the next target.
After saying goodbye, Charles looked at Mu En's back with a serious face.
"I can't see through him, he's not in my perception at all!"
"This guy's ability is very special, maybe it will come in handy when fighting Xiao."
Eric's perception is no worse than Charles', he clearly sensed that Mu En cut off his control over the pendant.
The opponent's ability is very special. Although it may not play any role on the battlefield, it can cut off mutant abilities, which means that he will be the nemesis of many mutant abilities.
In addition, the opponent is a battle-hardened mercenary, and there is a high probability that he can deal with Xiao.
On the other side, Mu En and Logan are fully armed, and all kinds of equipment are ready, ready to enter the battle at any time.
Not long after, Charles and his people arrived.
She was a capable woman. After seeing Mu En and Logan dressed like soldiers, she was confused, but still introduced herself.
"Gentlemen, my name is Moira. According to Charles' report, the two of you will temporarily become members of the CIA!"
"Hello, Ms. Moira, my name is Mu En, and his name is Logan. We are just hired, and we are not interested in the CIA!"
Seeing Mu En say this, Moira nodded gently. It doesn't matter what the abilities of these two guys are. What's important is that they look much stronger than the guys recruited before.
Logan, who was standing next to him, was looking at Moira with a cigar in his mouth. It was obvious that she was his type!
"Hey, Logan, stop looking. Those guys from the CIA are not that easy to deal with!"
He nudged Logan with his elbow to wake him up, who was about to put his eyes on his chest.
Logan came to his senses, took a deep puff of his cigar, put on sunglasses and got into Moira's car.
Although Moira was his type, he also knew how powerful the CIA was, and he didn't want to deal with these agents.
