Although Vera recovered from her wounds due to the awakening of her mutant abilities, in order not to arouse suspicion from the outside world, Vera had no choice but to ask the school for long-term sick leave under Noah's arrangement.

This car accident, to a certain extent, happened because of helping Professor Charlie take over, so Professor Charlie was very guilty. As soon as he got the news, he tried his best to contact all of Vera's friends he knew. I hope to get Vera's hospital and go to visit her.

After Noah got the news, he came forward to solve the matter, saying that Vera was still in the intensive care unit and it was inconvenient to visit.

Professor Charlie felt even more guilty, as if he had aged several years.

In fact, at this time, Vera was nestling in the room, holding potato chips and checking Twitter on the computer.

Yesterday, Grandpa Claire mentioned that the government's launch of weapons against mutants would start today. Vera couldn't go to the scene to observe the situation, so she had to stay at home with a computer and follow the information there in real time.

However, the press conference does not adopt live broadcast, but announces the press conference after the press conference is over, so when there is no way to get information for the time being, Vera has to check Twitter to pass the time.

Stuffing a handful of potato chips into her mouth, Vera guessed that Noah would definitely do something this time.

Vera gritted her teeth.

This guy had already done so many awesome things before he realized it.

After struggling for a while, Vera sighed.

Squeezing her relatively strong arm, Vera frowned irritably.

It doesn't make sense that I only have self-healing ability, Noah also has the ability to shoot.

Vera closed the computer, jumped out of bed and ran to the desk wearing slippers, took out a small knife from the drawer, and gestured at her arm, but didn't make up her mind to do so.

Vera sat down on the swivel chair discouraged.

There must be other abilities, what exactly is it...

The door was knocked twice hastily.

Vera was listless, "Come in..."

Brian immediately pushed the door open and came in. He said in a low voice, "Go downstairs."

Vera sat up straight, frowning suspiciously.

Following Brian down the stairs together, Mother Jenny and Grandpa Brian were sitting on the sofa, staring at the TV, and on the TV screen, the White House's mutant weapons conference was being broadcast live.

Different from the original glamor of the White House, it is now surrounded by a huge circular stadium that fell from the sky, and the ground is full of mess. A man wearing gay purple armor, a cape, and a helmet is suspended in the air with his hands outstretched. Above the mess.

Vera blinked and sat down on the sofa, "Wow, this guy is so cool!"

Jenny's mother looked at her helplessly.

Vera: "Who is this?"

Grandpa Claire watched the ostentatious mutant on TV, snorted in disapproval, and said, "Magneto, a radical guy among mutants."

On the TV, Magneto has already started a passionate speech, calling on all mutants to rise up for his own dignity and survival, and create a world where mutants are no longer discriminated against.

Vera smacked her lips, "If I were a little poorer or miserable, I would definitely be seduced by him, tsk tsk tsk, the level of this pyramid scheme is too high."

"After today, mutants will be completely exposed in front of people." Brian said in a deep voice.

Suddenly, Vera's eyes widened, and she looked at the corner of the camera, where a person hit under a giant steel building that broke on the ground, was closing her eyes tightly, enduring something with a painful expression.

Isn't that the guy who robbed her car a few days ago? !

……

Click.

In the middle of the night, Nuo Da's living room was empty and silent, when suddenly there was an unusually abrupt sound.

Without turning on the light, in the dark living room, Vera sat on the sofa, holding an apple in her hand, took a bite, and chewed it with a click.

Putting her legs on the armrest of the sofa, Vera sat sideways, her eyes fixed on the direction of the door.

After Mom and Grandpa fell asleep, Vera sneaked into the living room and decided to stay up late waiting for Noah.

What happened today was of great significance to all mutants. Noah hadn't been seen all day, and Vera could think with her toes that he had gone out to do something.

The two stayed together in the womb of Jenny's mother for ten months. They had a very good relationship since they were young, and they knew each other very well. In the past 22 years, the two have done countless things, shot guns, played with knives, and all kinds of dark places in New York. In the past, what is boiling in the blood is always the factor of restlessness.

In recent years, ever since Noah awakened as a mutant, Mother Jenny and Grandpa Claire feared that something might happen to Vera, and kept her in peace for several years, but Vera knew that Noah had never been safe. Pass.

After seeing Noah's medical station, Vera vaguely understood that Noah already had his own mutant force.

And now that she has also become a mutant, and it coincides with the tense relationship between mutants and ordinary people, Vera's blood that has been calm for many years finally boils again.

With a crisp sound, the door opened.

The faint moonlight poured in through the crack of the door, and a figure appeared, with his arms curled up, and a coat draped over it, he walked in hastily.

Vera took the last bite of the apple, and said that the core of the apple was thrown into the trash can beside the table five meters away.

Hearing the sound, the figure paused, closed the door gently, and then took out a flashlight from his pocket.

A bright light hit Vera, and Vera squinted her eyes because of the light, and raised her hand to block it.

"x, glare, turn it off!"

Noah shook the flashlight, but the light still surrounded Vera's eyes. His voice was a little tired, and he said: "...Go to sleep."

"No." Vera jumped off the sofa, "You didn't sleep either."

"I'm going to sleep now." With that said, Noah moved the light of the flashlight to the stairs, and walked up the stairs.

Relying on the faint light, Vera quickly followed him, and both of them moved forward lightly, lest they wake up the two sleeping parents upstairs.

Noah: "Go to bed quickly."

Vera: "I'm not sleepy."

Noah: "...I'm sleepy."

Stopping in front of the door, Noah raised the flashlight and shone it on his face from the bottom up. The reflected face was pale, and the black circles under his eyes were very obvious.

Noah stared at Vera half dead, "I'm sleepy, I want to sleep."

"At first I have something to ask you." Vera looked at his black circle and frowned, "If you don't tell me, I won't be able to sleep."

Noah rolled his eyes and muttered, "I won't be able to sleep after I tell you..."

With that said, he didn't bother to talk to Vera anymore, turned around and twisted the doorknob, and was about to open the door and enter the room.

Vera Limara stayed at the door and asked, "Did you go to the scene today?"

"..." Noah raised his eyelids listlessly, and looked at her, "If I didn't tell you, you wouldn't fucking let me go today, would you?"

Vera looked at him with a grin, feeling very unworthy of beating.

"...I really owe you in my previous life!" Noah pushed open the door cursingly, and let Vera in together.

He turned on the light with a snap, and the tidy room came into view.

Both Noah and Vera's personalities are carefree, even a little unrestrained. They are eclectic about small things, and the room is always messy. Fortunately, there are helpers and cleaners at home, otherwise this room must be different. scene.

Vera picked up the pillow from the sofa familiarly and sat upright, staring at Noah with piercing black eyes.

Noah threw his coat on the table casually, pulled a chair from the desk and sat in front of Vera, with a messy hair like a bird's nest, looking at Vera with a deep and serious face.

Vera looked at Noah's head shape and told herself not to laugh.

"..." Qing coughed twice to cover up her emotions, and Vera said, "What did you do today?"

Noah pursed his thin lips, "If you watched the live broadcast, you would find that I was not there."

Vera raised her eyebrows, "That can only mean that you haven't been discovered."

"The reason why I wasn't found was because I didn't go to the scene." Noah said calmly.

A trace of surprise flashed in Vera's eyes.

Noah unbuttoned a button of his neckline with one hand to breathe, looked up at the time, and guessed that he might not be able to sleep for a long time today.

"I think you have guessed it, I established my own mutant force, and the medical station is one of my bases. Now mutants are still excluded and discriminated against in society. If they don't unite, some weak mutants will People can't even survive." He paused, and then continued: "After I became a mutant, I quickly understood this reality, so I formed my own forces."

Vera asked curiously: "Then what is your power used for?"

"Do nothing." Noah said calmly: "They are loyal to me. I give them jobs and shelter. The base is like a society that only belongs to mutants. There is no discrimination, no exclusion, and they work for me. , I will give them peace."

Vera opened her mouth, unable to adapt to such a serious and loving Noah for a while, she was blinded for a few seconds.

"So all your men are mutants?"

Vera didn't know exactly how many Noah's subordinates had, but she had seen more than a dozen of them, not counting the few white coats she saw at the medical station that day.

Noah hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"John too?" Vera asked.

Noah nodded.

"Then what are his abilities?"

"He is invulnerable to swords and guns, invulnerable to water and fire, and even missiles cannot kill him."

"... Danny too?"

"Correct."

"What about his ability?"

"... tampering with memory." Noah paused, and said: "He can tamper with part of the memory of ordinary people. When ordinary people discover our identities, Danny will tamper with the memory of the other party and eliminate the threat to us. .”

Vera stared at Noah dumbfounded, as if it was the first day she knew him.

The slap in the face came so fast that he was caught off guard.

Vera always thought that she was the person who knew Noah best in the world, but she never thought that Noah had grown to such a level when she didn't know it.

Vera grabbed Noah's hand, and in front of Noah's surprised eyes, said loudly:

"Big guy!"
