After Norma helped Charles to go ashore carefully, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, but then, the next problem came, they both stayed in the water for a long time, and after landing, their clothes were all sticky. On the body, discomfort is secondary, and the most important issue is the coldness that penetrates the heart.

Norma's situation is much better than Charles's. After all, she just fell into the water not long ago, but Charles is different. Although they can't determine the passage of time because they don't have a clock or a mobile phone, it is clear that Charles stays in the water than she does. much longer.

Even after leaving the water, Charles was still trembling and his face was pale. Although he could not die, it undoubtedly caused great harm to his body. It seemed that the most important thing for them now was to dry their clothes.

Seeing Norma looking at him worriedly, Charles forced a smile and said, "Don't, don't worry, I'm fine."

"You said it's okay! You're even shaking your voice, maybe we need something warm." Since she was also wet all over, Norma could only support Charles not to get too close to him, relying on them to keep warm Not easy, they need something else.

Soon, there was a lit fireplace on the wall on the shore, and now they finally felt warmer.

While trying to dry their bodies, the two relaxed, and Charles smiled and said, "Your abilities are getting more and more proficient." Although he knew that the shore and fireplace similar to a swimming pool were imagined by Norma Yes, but everything that appeared in front of his eyes was so real.

Norma smiled: "That's because I have a good teacher!" If Charles hadn't led her to practice again and again, she probably wouldn't be able to do what she is today. Let her ability become more proficient.

"May I think you are praising me?" Charles had a smile on his face, and he seemed to be in a better mood.

There is nothing more gratifying than being praised by his own students. As a professor, he has a sense of accomplishment, not to mention...she is not just his student, is she?

Seeing that Charles' face was not so pale, Norma breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Of course I'm praising you. Could it be that there are others?"

etc!Are they flirting like this?But forget it... Anyway, they have confirmed their relationship now, haven't they?

"If only we were in front of the fire in the school right now, at least we could have a cup of coffee."

Norma smiled: "If you don't mind, I can make two cups of coffee, but..."

Norma didn't finish her sentence, so Charles naturally knew what she meant, but those two cups of coffee were also imaginary, so it's really useless, right?

Speaking of coffee, Norma thought of a question: "By the way, Charles, have you not eaten during this time?" Because I don't know how long I have been here, so I can only use this time to describe it.

Charles smiled wryly.

Well, it seems that there is no need to ask this question at all, because she did not get any food, and it is conceivable that they would not get any food if they did not cooperate with Stryker and their experiments.

In Stryker's view, mutants and ordinary people are mortal enemies, so how could he give food to mortal enemies?

Forget it, as for Charles...

Charles is the leader of the mutants. In Stryker's view, Charles' best attribution is to die by their hands, right?

It's definitely not going to work if it goes on like this, they have to find a way to escape!

"Charles, we have to find a way to escape!"

Charles nodded: "I know, but..."

Seeing that Charles hesitated to speak, Norma couldn't help being a little surprised: "What's wrong?"

"About the two of us being caught, I didn't tell anyone else, even Hank... I told him not to tell, you know, if other people know that we were caught, they will definitely come Save us, but Stryker will definitely find a way to deal with them, I don't want to..."

Norma suddenly realized, she stretched out her hand to cover Charles' mouth: "I see, you don't need to explain so much, I know you don't want to put other people in danger."

She knew what Charles was thinking. There was no doubt that if other mutants came to save them, they would be out of danger soon, but whether as a professor or as a friend of mutants, Charles didn't want other people In danger, after all, Stryker has been targeting mutants. Now that he has captured Charles, it might be that he wants to catch all the mutants in other people.

This is their business, let them solve it by themselves!

Charles smiled: "It seems that I have found a reasonable girlfriend."

"Hmm, this is your blessing, so cherish it!" Norma joked with her lips curled up.

After the joke, Norma still got to the point: "We should find a way to get out of here first, I remember they seemed to open a certain door to push me down, so there should be a door here..."

She said, looking around as she thought, and finally she looked up and saw a flash of a closed door in the wall above their heads.

"The door is there!" She raised her voice in surprise.

Charles also raised his head and saw the door, but then he frowned: "So high?" The door was there alone, that is to say, the room with the pool should have existed originally, And the other rooms are built on top of it.

"It seems that I should get a ladder or a lift to get out?" Norma said, touching her chin. You must know that this is basically a cliff, and ordinary people can't climb it at all.

And looking at this place, they don't seem to be planning to get Charles up there either!

Charles frowned, and it took a long time before he said, "Norma, why don't you go first?"

Norma was stunned: "Why? Didn't we agree to go together?"

Charles looked gloomy: "You know...I will only drag you down."

Here he is again!

Norma returned to Charles: "Charles, I never thought about it, so don't think about it, and I'm gone, how are you going to leave here? Even if you have a way to leave... I can't wait that long , so let's go together!"

Charles still hesitated: "But..."

"No but! I'll go behind your back!"

Seeing that the clothes of the two were almost dry, Norma began to concentrate on making the lift. Since neither of them had eaten, they had to save energy, but it was obviously troublesome to make the lift. Made a stone platform that can move up and down.

As long as they stand on it, the stone platform can lead them directly to the upper doorway, so they should not need much effort to leave here.

As for whether there are guards outside the door, leave it to Charles.

After the stone platform was finished, Norma returned to Charles: "Charles, how are you feeling?" Although Charles' face had returned to normal with the warmth of the fireplace, and his clothes seemed to be completely dry, but he Still doesn't look good.

You have to take a good rest after you go back!

Charles nodded at her: "I'm fine."

"OK, let's go then! Get out of here early so you can go back to school earlier." While saying this, Norma squatted down with her back to Charles: "Give me your hand!"

"Norma, do you really want to..."

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up!"

There seemed to be a helpless sigh from Charles behind him, but he still put his hands on her shoulders. Norma stretched out his hands and hooked his legs to stand up with all her strength, and went to the not far away stone platform.

"Am I heavy?" Charles' voice came from her ear, which made Norma feel a little itchy, but now she couldn't reach out to scratch her ear, so she had to turn her head away.

"Don't talk in my ear, it's itchy, and... To be honest, I haven't carried other men on my back, and I can't compare whether you are serious or not!"

Charles laughed, she definitely did it on purpose, she just wanted to make herself happy!

Norma took Charles to stand on the stone platform, and the stone platform rose slowly, and they came to the exit after a short while.

"Let's say it first, everything about the soldiers outside belongs to you, and I'll just take you on your way." Before opening the door, Norma turned her head and said to Charles.

Charles smiled: "Okay."

Although she didn't know whether there was anyone guarding the door or whether the door was locked, Norma decided to try to see if she could open it first.

Norma put her hand on the cold iron door and pulled it in their direction, but she didn't expect that the door would be opened with a "squeak" just after she pulled it.

It seems that these people think that the door is so high that no one can open it, so there is no lock, which is really cheap for them!

The gate was just opened, and before they could take a step outside, the soldiers guarding outside appeared in front of the two with guns.

At this time, Charles used his ability, and even the soldiers who appeared outside the door didn't seem to see anything, and looked at each other suspiciously. Taking this opportunity, Norma quickly took Charles out and left the reservoir among.

It's just... This space seems to be very large. After they walked the previous section of the road, Norma and Charles could only stand where they were. There was no other reason. Charles was thrown into the pool when he was unconscious, and Norma was also taken there with her eyes covered, and they didn't know how to go ahead.

"...It seems that we can only find someone to ask how to get out of here."

Charles seemed to hear a hint of danger from Norma's tone: "Norma?"

Norma turned around and smiled at him: "Don't worry Charles, I just want to ask for directions, I won't hurt them."
