"What's going on?"
"Why has Squad Seven lost contact?"
"What kind of place is that?"
"Have the closest Squad Six and Squad Eight go check it out!"
Without any surprises, the Ravagers squad that landed at the Base surrendered without any resistance.
However, the fact that the small spaceship lost all signals upon entering the Base surprised the Ravagers still stationed in the Ravager Battleship.
This was just a trash Planet that couldn't even leave its homeworld, yet it had a place that could cause a small squad to lose contact?
However, considering the intelligence information previously collected by the Battleship's AI, if there were Super Mutants guarding the Base, a squad losing contact wasn't entirely unacceptable.
The reason the Ravagers as a group are feared in the Universe is not because of individual Ravagers, but because of the Ravagers as a collective, because of the Ravagers Alliance!
Among the Ravagers, an action squad typically consists of only about ten people. They are neither Super Mutants nor physically enhanced individuals, so it's not surprising if they were defeated by a Super Mutant from a trash Planet.
What excited the Ravagers even more was how much money they could get if they captured the Super Mutants in this Base!
This was a primitive Super Mutant, a Super Mutant from a Planet that hadn't left its homeworld, far more valuable than those Super Mutants in cosmic powers who became so through injections of medicine!
...Unfortunately, these Ravagers would never know.
What they were facing was not some trash that couldn't even leave its homeworld, but rather super bigshots that even advanced civilizations dared not provoke!
...Naturally,
"What's going on?"
"Where are Squad Six and Squad Eight?"
"Why have these two squads also lost contact?"
"Could it be that this Base is hiding many Super Mutants?"
Inside the Ravager Battleship in space, a large group of Ravagers looked at each other in bewilderment over the continuous loss of contact from three squads.
They could never have imagined that the power of a super-civilization existed here.
It was like a modern person traveling to primitive society, but never believing there would be nuclear weapons in primitive society.
But, reality was far stranger than imagination!
"Boss!"
"What should we do?"
"That... so-called ordinary Base most likely has Super Mutants."
"Should we continue to send squads to probe, or directly send in the main force?"
A group of Ravagers, serving as commanders, felt the pressure and came to Yondu for guidance.
After all, it was a place that could cause three Ravagers squads to lose contact, and anything unusual could be inside. These commanding Ravagers did not want to take responsibility.
If the command succeeded, it would be fine, but what if it failed? Being pricked by the boss's Yaka Arrow? No way...
"Of course..."
"Wait...!"
Just as Yondu was about to state his plan, ten kilometers away from the Base, at the Mutant School, the ground of the training field suddenly split open, and a fighter jet with both optical and radar stealth capabilities flew into the sky, speeding away into the distance.
Yondu turned his head and looked at the Battleship's real-time combat information collection system.
As a battleship of a third-tier civilization, a real-time combat information gathering system was standard equipment! The system screen refreshed, and the Mutant School's stealth fighters appeared on the screen with no secrets whatsoever. The real-time images and data of the dozen or so Mutants on board were also displayed.
This group was none other than Charles, Magneto, Beast, and Soundwave, along with the rest of the X-Men!
"Haha!"
"Excellent!"
"The guys who pose a huge threat to us are all gone!"
"I command!"
Yondu sprang up with a whoosh, and similarly, the other Ravagers also broke into smiles.
"Temporarily ignore… that… Company. All squads, switch to capture devices, and round up the Mutant School for me!"
"Regardless of age, capture all the Mutants for me!"
Although Yondu didn't know why Charles, Magneto, and the others were leaving the Mutant School, it perfectly aligned with his interests! Without Charles and Magneto there, the group of… individuals who had grown up under Charles's protection in the Mutant School would be no match for the Ravagers.
With a little training, this would become a powerful trump card in Yondu's hands!
"Yes!"
"Boss is brilliant!"
Hearing Yondu's command, the group of Ravagers all became excited.
For these Ravagers, these Mutants were like walking gold coins, and this was related to how much income they would be able to distribute later… In their minds, even if a portion would be taken by the Boss for training, it was impossible for all of them to be trained; a portion would inevitably be sold.
In the Universe, Ability Userss were much more valuable than ordinary slaves!
It was a pity that these cheering Ravagers didn't see their Boss's increasingly sinister gaze, nor did they see his increasingly wicked smile.
With these Ability Users subordinates, would Yondu still need these trash Ravagers to share his profits? Once these Mutants were trained, what could be done that wasn't better than dragging along this group of burdens? What could be done that wasn't more profitable than dragging along this group of burdens…
"Huh?"
"Is she about to turn dark?"
With White's report, Qi Jun naturally shifted a portion of his attention to the Mutant School… With White handling the Base, Qi Jun didn't need to worry at all. Qi Jun only needed to focus on whether Jean Grey could successfully turn dark.
Although Qi Jun didn't know why Charles and the X-Men were going to stop Apocalypse, intending to end the war and nip the Third World War in the bud, he didn't know why Magneto, whose powers had already been sealed, was brought along for such a major operation, nor did he know why Jean Grey wasn't brought. But Qi Jun didn't care; it would be even better if Charles and the others died. If Jean Grey found out, she would instantly turn dark.
What Qi Jun was more concerned about was whether Jean Grey would turn dark under the attack and oppression of the Ravagers… And what was even more interesting was that Qi Jun also'saw' that after Charles and the others left, William Stryker, and even General Ross of the Air Force, were all heading towards the Mutant School with their men.
Would this devolve into a three-way melee? Qi Jun stroked his chin.
A bit… interesting… To be continued: Feilu reminds you: three things to do when reading: collect, recommend.
