NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 147: Chapter 147
The camera lens froze on a horrifying scene in the bustling streets of New York, 1983. Deadpool, unmasked, lay sprawled in a pool of blood soaking the asphalt. Kurohane crouched beside him, an M9 pistol still clutched tightly in his hand, a thin wisp of smoke curling from its muzzle. It was clear, this fool Deadpool had once again caused trouble for Kurohane! This time, he'd swapped sets from Sony to Fox. This was the world of the X-Men!
Kurohane only needed to glance at the hirsute Professor X to know that the Time Variance Authority was also absent from this world! Although Wolverine existed in this universe, if only it were the old Wolverine, or even Wolverine buried in a grave, at least he could use the Time Variance Authority's equipment to teleport back. But after Kurohane found the equipment unresponsive, he immediately, in front of Mystique in her human form, also known as Big Cousin, gave Deadpool a headshot!
Kurohane had already sensed someone attempting to enter his mind, but as a fellow Telepath, Kurohane instinctively repelled Professor X's uninvited intrusion. A bead of sweat trickled down the young Professor X's forehead as he sat in his wheelchair. A psychic as powerful as Kurohane, besides Jean Grey, was something he had never encountered before!
"Sir, who committed a crime with a gun, how did you get into the school?" Professor X truly didn't understand. These two strange men had emerged from the school bathroom together, and the ugly man in red tights hadn't even said anything before being shot by this man with psychic powers! Professor X hadn't even had time to perceive how the two of them could have entered the bathroom undetected!
Kurohane squatted on the ground without answering, his eyes staring blankly, as if all his strength had been drained. Then, under everyone's terrified gazes, Deadpool, who lay in a pool of blood, rose as if nothing had happened. He retrieved his mask from Kurohane's hand, pulling it over his head, concealing his ugly, burnt face.
"Let's just talk about everything properly. You shoot me in the head every time. If you do it too much, my intelligence will drop!" Deadpool grumbled, his voice muffled by the mask yet still cheerful. Then, seeing the bewildered Professor X, he hugged him tightly and kissed his cheek through the mask. "Hi, Professor, I'm Wade, your new friend! Can I join the X-Men?"
"When are you next world-crossing?" Kurohane once again pressed the muzzle of the pistol to the back of Deadpool's head. He was utterly fed up with this fool. He had to leave this world immediately!
"Let me see the mission that damned editor gave me this time." Deadpool pretended to swipe a few times in the air, as if operating an invisible panel. "Hmm, help the young X-Men members defeat Apocalypse, show my importance as much as possible, and preferably personally kill Apocalypse..."
"Kurohane, I think we should leave this mission quickly. Apocalypse isn't someone we can handle!" Deadpool's words completely baffled Professor X and Mystique, but Kurohane understood. Deadpool's mission was to crossover through various Universes and see if he had the potential to join a superhero organization. At the very least, Deadpool couldn't make big movies on his own anymore. The trend lately was to debut as a group!
However, Kurohane believed that Deadpool should only play alone and not endanger others. Otherwise, he would go insane!
"Uh... hello, two unknown Mutants. If you ever encounter difficulties, you can tell me, and I will do my best to help you." From Kurohane's and Deadpool's behavior, Professor X knew that they were not ordinary people. One possessed psychic abilities that might be slightly stronger than his own, and the other could survive even if his head was blown off. The current power of these two was already far greater than that of ordinary Mutants! Without proper guidance, they would cause major problems sooner or later! Especially Kurohane. His abilities were almost identical to his own, and he didn't hesitate at all when shooting and killing. He clearly looked like a tough individual who had emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, with at least a hundred lives on his hands!
Kurohane let out a long sigh and put away his pistol. "Stop pretending in front of me. You're more familiar with the plot than I am. If the sky falls, Phoenix will hold it up. If the worst comes to worst, we'll just give bail."
"Hehe, I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Deadpool grinned, slinging his arm around Kurohane's shoulder, as if nothing had just happened. "As the old saying goes, since we're already here, it's a big holiday, the kids are still young, at least we should watch the plot!" If it weren't for the bloodstain left on the floor from the headshot, Professor X and Mystique would have thought it was just an illusion.
"Professor, if possible, we will leave now. Good luck!" Kurohane immediately wanted to escape. All his skills were insufficient to fight Apocalypse. Besides, the abilities he possessed were primarily about boundless potential. Whether it was his Telepathy or the Sacred Scar on the back of his hand, they were incredibly useful. Rather than being chosen by Apocalypse to be one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, or used as his new body, it was better to escape quickly! Although defeating Apocalypse would definitely yield a lot of justice points, it wasn't worth risking his life!
"If I may, I'd like to invite both of you to join the X-Men!" Professor X was also a sharp individual. Kurohane and Deadpool were clearly not on the same page. Kurohane's desire to flee was written all over his face. But Deadpool had said from the beginning that he wanted to join the X-Men, and he looked very easy to recruit! So Professor X immediately set his sights on Deadpool. His combat power was still uncertain, but this physical recovery speed was invaluable. The last person who was so durable was Wolverine!
"Deal! We're staying!" Deadpool grabbed Professor X's outstretched hand and shook it enthusiastically.
Kurohane stared at the scene, his expression one of utter disbelief.
What a disaster!!!
"However, both of you still need to explain how you got here." Professor X's face was full of smiles, but his forehead was covered in sweat, making him seem as if he was struggling.
Mystique noticed Professor X's condition was a bit off. She thoughtfully wiped the sweat from his forehead and whispered in his ear, "Why don't you just get into their minds and see?"
"You think I don't want to?!" Professor X's voice appeared directly in Mystique's mind, but there was a slight tremor in his tone. "One of them has psychic abilities no less than my own, there's no way to enter his mind! The other's mind is full of excrement, urine, farts, pornography, gambling, and drugs. I almost went crazy just looking around! Both of these, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Fledgling, must be made to stay!"
