Chapter 280 You Dare to Point Your Guns at God
Outside the manor, there is an inconspicuous hill. The night is deep and the darkness is like a thick curtain, wrapping it heavily.
The hills were shrouded in silence, and Sebastian, hiding in the woods, seemed to be able to hear his own disordered heartbeat.
Beside him, there were two figures. They were all hidden by the shadows of the trees, but their eyes were all fixed on the manor, revealing shock and fear.
Originally, they planned to attack Charles' base camp, but plans could not keep up with changes... Sebastian looked up at the sky in shock. The originally dark sky now revealed the bright moonlight as the dark clouds dispersed.
As if under the influence of some mysterious force, the thick dark clouds around formed a sharp contrast with the huge round hole in the middle.
"Is that power real? The aura it exudes even shook apart clouds that were who knows how high they were... Oh my god, what on earth is this?"
The red devil with a long tail, wearing a black suit and bright red skin said with wide eyes and a look of fear on his face.
He was almost able to transfer and sneak into the manor, but at the moment he took action, a powerful and unstoppable energy wave penetrated his body, forcing him to stop using his ability.
That terrifying energy fluctuation made his heart beat wildly. He suspected that if he had used his ability to transfer himself to the center of the manor and run into the source of that energy head-on, perhaps something unpredictable and terrible might have happened.
Sebastian's eyes were extremely solemn. As someone who had the keenest sense of energy, he was the one who made the most accurate assessment of the sudden burst of energy among all the people present.
It was precisely because he knew how terrifying the power of that fleeting huge energy was that he did not order the Red Devil to continue sneaking in.
The three of them had been waiting until now, and only when the car carrying Charles drove into the manor did they completely abandon their plan.
A woman with beautiful blonde hair and dressed in white walked quietly in front of him.
"Xiao! Do you need me to use my abilities to investigate what's going on inside?"
The White Queen's expression was extremely solemn. In fact, she had just planned to do so, but was stopped by Sebastian. Now, the energy fluctuation seemed to have completely dissipated, which made her feel it necessary to investigate the cause of that energy.
"No, don't alert the enemy. Charles is back now. Your ability is likely to be discovered by him! He will use you to determine our location..."
Sebastian's eyes were deep. His plans were disrupted, and he felt out of control.
Looking at the wonder in the sky, he couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Is it a person... or some kind of weapon?"
……
The entire manor was surrounded by CIA soldiers, and the room where the mutant trainees were located was completely surrounded.
Mora, a CIA agent, stared at the face she had never seen before.
"Charles!"
Seeing Charles, who was pale and being helped up, Maura couldn't help but exclaim softly. She hurried forward and helped Charles up under Raven's complicated gaze.
"How are you? What happened just now?"
Mora's eyes were fixed on Lin Jue, who was smiling and looking harmless not far away. Subconsciously, she could feel that the seemingly harmless young man was the source of this change.
Charles, who was also looking at Lin Jue, pursed his lips slightly. Seeing Lin Jue with his hands hanging down, he seemed not to want to fight against the CIA. After thinking for a while, he said, "It's okay! There was no conflict just now!"
"Who are you? What do you mean we haven't seen you before?"
Maura shouted in a deep voice.
Looking at the unfamiliar Asian face not far away, she did not completely believe what Charles said.
Why was she so suspicious?
At this moment, outside the manor, a large group of American soldiers were staring at the sky with dull eyes. The bright moonlight fell only on the manor. Everything seemed so incredible and dreamy.
As one of the persons in charge of this manor, Mora naturally learned about this strange astronomical phenomenon.
This is also the reason why she rushed here without stopping.
The mutant students in the manor are their important weapon against Sebastian this time, and they cannot be lost!
"He is my boyfriend, I asked him to help!"
Raven came in front of Lin Jue, glaring at Mora with some anger, and also ignored Charles and Eric who were a little shocked!
"Your boyfriend? Raven, when did you have a boyfriend like this...?"
Not knowing how to sum up the words to describe Lin Jue, Eric frowned tightly, looking at the unfamiliar Asian face. Somehow, he thought of the Grand Duke of Eternal Night, and the hostility that had been there before also decreased as Charles recovered.
"What we talked about recently!"
Raven said indifferently that even though Eric and she were friends, she could not immediately forgive Eric for his previous brazen attack.
If Lin Jue wasn't so powerful, there's a good chance that she would have been injured by mistake!
"Raven..." Charles' face showed pain. Obviously, even though he was released by Lin Jue, his spirit body had suffered considerable trauma. There was a constant stabbing pain in the back of his head like needles, and even his vision was sometimes hazy and sometimes clear.
This shows the negative effects brought about by his infiltration into Lin Jue's spiritual world.
"Sir, no matter who you are, we hope you can go back with us for investigation!"
A CIA agent in a suit and with a solemn expression suddenly walked out from the soldiers, looking warily at Lin Jue who seemed to have no hostility.
He was also wearing some special Bluetooth headphones on his ears, and some subtle frequency fluctuations were captured by Lin Jue through the air.
"Oh! Officer, I didn't do anything illegal, and I believe you didn't see my crime with your own eyes. I have no reason to leave with you!"
With a smile on his lips, Lin Jue looked indifferently at the CIA agent who was slowly reaching for the pistol at his side.
Lin Jue, who was familiar with the plot, naturally knew the extent to which America was wary of mutants in this era. It was not just Sebastian's role, they were also wary of Professor X and any other mutant.
Now they have only come together under the powerful pressure of the Black Emperor. Once the Black Emperor is dealt with, those human politicians who are more aware of the power of mutants will immediately turn against them and take action against Charles and others.
Although everything seems peaceful now, there are actually undercurrents. Lin Jue doesn't want to pamper these guys.
If he really followed them, he would probably be sent to a laboratory for research. After all, the power he had just used was too strong, and it obviously made these cunning and insidious villains feel the crisis.
"That's right, Lin didn't do anything. I think you misunderstood!"
Raven quickly stood in front of Lin Jue, staring at him intently, and actually tried to threaten Lin Jue's agent.
But it was obvious that the agent did not intend to give up. He tilted his head slightly, obviously listening to someone's orders, and the person behind him did not seem to compromise.
With a wave of his arm, under the shocked gaze of everyone, the fully armed soldiers rushed forward in an instant and pointed their guns at Raven and Lin Jue.
"Maura!"
Charles realized that something was wrong and looked at Maura, who was at a loss, with some anger.
"David! What are you doing?"
Ignoring the words in her ears, Mora stared at her companion who was preparing to use force to attack the mutants without authorization.
"Mora, this is a request from above. This guy is a huge threat. The latest investigation results just showed that there is no information about this person in the United States! This guy is at least an illegal immigrant!"
The man shouted in a deep voice, staring at Lin Jue, who still had a calm expression, and watching the curve of his mouth. If he was not afraid of the other party's strength, he would have wanted to empty the magazine in his hand.
Because he felt insulted and despised by an Asian, but his false self-esteem couldn't stand it!
"Mora, tell all your men to put down their guns, otherwise our cooperation will be terminated completely!"
At this moment, even Charles couldn't bear it anymore. At least from now on, Lin Jue was not on the side of the enemy, but the current situation was that his own people were forcing others.
"Put down your guns! Everyone! Now!"
As if he couldn't stand the roaring commands in his earphone, Mora grabbed it, slammed it to the ground, and shouted at the soldiers around him.
The soldiers looked at each other. The two superiors issued completely opposite orders at the same time, leaving them unsure how to react.
Seeing that the situation had reached a stalemate, all the mutant trainees became wary of the CIA. Mora, who saw all this, became even more anxious.
She couldn't understand what those CIA guys had noticed that would cause them to openly become enemies of the mutants regardless of the situation in front of them. This was not their current strategy at all.
Apparently, there were things even she was kept in the dark about.
Looking at the increasingly tense situation and Raven's anxious and apologetic look, Lin Jue felt like he was laughing out of anger. He didn't expect these soldiers to put down their guns on their own.
"You foolish humans... who do you think you are pointing your guns at? How dare you unleash hostility against a true god?"
It was like the voice of God. Almost all the soldiers, including the mutants, changed their expressions. The voice appeared in their minds out of nowhere, even though the other party didn't open his mouth to speak!
As the last words fell, the sound came from the brain into reality, like a sound wave that instantly swept across everyone. Faced with such an incredible scene, the soldiers were shocked and pulled the triggers in their hands.
"Do not--"
Raven exclaimed loudly, some mutant students showed anger, and even Eric was ready to take action.
However, there are people who are faster than them!
Invisible waves vibrate all around!
pat...
The sound of guns falling to the ground came one after another...
