NOVEL NEXT Chapter 127 Beast Hank, rescue mission
In the early morning, the plain was filled with thick fog. The early sun shone through the fog and sprinkled on the ground. The air was filled with the fragrance of green grass.
Logan moved a chair and sat outside the house. The cup in his hand was filled with freshly brewed tea, and there were bursts of white smoke.
After a day of repair yesterday, the town was basically handled, and the materials brought were properly handled. The dilapidated town also began to liven up because of their arrival.
Logan sat on the chair, looking at the quiet town, blowing the hot steam in the water cup, and the data panel appeared in front of him.

After yesterday's speech, and some of the fragmentary prestige points added during the previous battle, the prestige during this period has increased by more than 1,600, and the total prestige has now reached more than 3,600. The growth rate can be said to be very rapid.
Looking at the skyrocketing prestige points, Logan couldn't help but smile.
After all, this was an unexpected surprise. His original intention yesterday was not for prestige, but to help all the depressed mutants get out of their depressed state as soon as possible. He just didn't expect that such a speech could actually gain so much prestige.
The growth of prestige also led to the increase of free points and enhancement points. At present, there are 50 free points, which is enough to make Logan's strength improve significantly.
Looking at the free points, Logan's eyes returned to the various attributes.
At present, except for 40 points of strength and 16 points of intelligence, the rest of the points are only 10 points.
After thinking about it, Logan decided to add 10 points to endurance, agility, and speed respectively, and the total of these three items came to 20 points.
At this stage, 40 points of strength are enough, and endurance can prolong his fighting time and enhance his physical strength so as not to be consumed.
As for agility and speed, they are two complementary attributes. The increase in agility can allow him to react faster in battle, and the increase in speed can make timely adjustments after the reaction.
As these three points increased, Logan felt a strange tingling sensation in his body.
With the increase of endurance, the whole person's spirit and spirit instantly felt much more relaxed. The fatigue from yesterday's busy day suddenly felt a lot easier, as if the energy in the body was much more abundant.
At the same time, everything he saw seemed to slow down a lot. The flapping of the wings of birds in the sky could be clearly captured, and the movements of some insects deep in the grass could also be clearly captured. The sense of everything around him also increased accordingly, and he could even hear the sound of Caliban brushing his teeth in the toilet in the house.
The five senses were rapidly amplified at this moment, and the response to various situations around him was also faster.
Feeling these changes, Logan couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.
Now if he faces a battle like the one with Maca again, he will definitely be much more relaxed. After all, he can respond to many attacks in time, and the increase in overall strength has definitely increased by a level!
After taking a deep breath, Logan returned his gaze to the panel.
Now there are still 20 free points left. After hesitating for a while, Logan still kept his original habit and stored these 20 free points for the time being in case of emergency.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the column of enhancement points.
There are a full 25 enhancement points. At present, the self-healing factor has returned to normal, so there is no need to consider it. So Logan looked at the three items of thermal vision, annihilation, and free flight.
After thinking about it, he added 15 points to flight without hesitation.
His current flying speed is still too slow. It’s okay when encountering normal enemies, but if he encounters an enemy that mainly flies, this speed is really not enough.
If he fights against an enemy that can fly, his current flying speed may be easily crushed.
Even if there are no flying enemies now, Logan still thinks it’s better to prepare for a rainy day.
Besides, he also wants to try the feeling of flying rapidly in the air.
As for the remaining 10 enhancement points, Logan didn’t hesitate too much and added them directly to thermal vision.
Although the ability of annihilation is stronger in some ways, it can ignore the enemy's defense and melt the enemy directly.
But this ability has too many disadvantages. After using it, you will fall into a state of exhaustion. If there are other enemies around, it is too dangerous, so this ability is a trump card and will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.
In daily combat, in addition to steel claws, the most used is thermal vision.
But now the power of thermal vision can no longer meet Logan's expectations.
From the battle with Macka this time, it can be seen that thermal vision can't even break Macka's golden shield. If you encounter some enemies with strong defense, the unupgraded thermal vision is really not enough.
In order to be able to deal with similar enemies better, it is necessary to increase the points of thermal vision.
As these two attributes increased, Logan breathed a sigh of relief.
However, after these two items were increased, there was no clear feedback from the body.
After all, they are different from self-healing factors. Self-healing factors are constantly warming and nourishing one's body. After being strengthened, the body's feedback is obvious.
As for the strength of these two enhancements, I am afraid that I can only intuitively feel it during combat.
With all the points added up, Logan put away the data panel.
At this time, the tea has cooled down a bit and is just the right temperature for your mouth.
He sat on the chair, sipping hot tea, looking at the grassland in the distance, and enjoying the morning time comfortably.
"Uncle Wolf, let's have a sandwich. I made this myself."
At this time, Lorna slowly walked over with a sandwich and gently placed it on the tea table in front of Logan.
"Thanks."
Logan smiled and nodded at Lorna, picked up the sandwich and took a bite. The soft bread, just the right amount of ham and salad dressing, tasted very good.
"I didn't expect you to have such skills. The taste is much better than I imagined."
He chewed his sandwich and couldn't help but nod in approval.
Although it is just a simple sandwich, it is indeed worthy of praise for being able to do this.
Lorna smiled, moved a chair and sat next to Logan, "When I was on the farm, I often cooked for them, and they all praised me for doing well."
"You should indeed praise it."
Logan smiled and finished the sandwich in a few bites.
Lorna just smiled, sighed, and stared into the distance in confusion.
"What's wrong?"
Logan saw Lorna's strange emotions.
"I'm worried about Klaus and John."
Lorna sighed, shook her head and said: "The two of them are very depressed, and they haven't recovered yet."
As soon as these words came out, Logan couldn't help but frown.
It's not okay to continue like this. After all, those two can be said to be the main combat force of the shelter. Their constant absence will also have a certain impact on the farm.
Lorna continued: "Actually, I also understand. After all, the two of them have followed Maika from the beginning and have the deepest relationship with Maika. In their view, Maika is not only a leader, but also a good brother. However, let What none of them expected was that Maika turned out to be Hydra, and almost killed everyone. It must be hard to accept for a while..."
She knew very well how Klaus and the others felt. Maika could be the closest person to them, but in the end she was betrayed by her closest relatives. She would definitely get out of this haze in a short time.
Listening to Lorna's words, Logan nodded silently, "I'll talk to them again when I have time. Don't worry, things will eventually pass. You don't have to worry too much. Now the shelter is still developing, but it can't be done. Absent-minded."
Although I now have a safe place, my livelihood has become a problem.
Material sources, money income, etc. all need to be built together by the people in the shelter, and Lorna and the others' help is indispensable. After all, they have experience in managing farms.
After Lorna gave a wry smile, she nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will do a good job."
When Logan was still about to say something, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. When he took it out, he saw a message.
Looking at the new information, Logan's expression suddenly became serious.
"What's wrong?"
Lorna immediately noticed something strange about Logan and asked.
"It's Hans."
Logan looked at the message sent by Hans on the phone, frowned, stood up and walked into the room, and at the same time said to Lorna: "Go and call Victor and the others to gather together, I have important things."
Lorna looked at Logan's expression and guessed that this matter was not simple. She nodded quickly and turned to call Victor and others over.
A few minutes later, everyone arrived at Logan's cabin.
Logan sat on the sofa, took a deep breath, raised his phone and showed it to everyone, "This is a message from Weird Hans, you all have a look."
After everyone took over Logan's phone and checked it, they all frowned.
In the message, Hans informed Logan that the situation was very bad. His father had been taken away. The three brothers were weak and unable to rescue him. He begged Logan and the others to provide help.
After reading the message, Charles immediately looked at Logan, "Logan, we can't just leave him alone, we must help him!"
If Hans is really the descendant of the beast Hank, then the person who was captured is Hank. Charles is obviously very interested in the old guy.
Logan nodded and said solemnly: "Of course, I will definitely help. If it weren't for Hans, we might still be kept in the dark by McCain, and we might have already entered Hydra's experimental platform. , Now that they are in need, I will definitely take action.”
He was never one to repay a favor. Since Hans had been kind to him, he would definitely help him.
"We're all willing to help."
After Lorna, Marcos and others looked at each other, they handed the phone back to Logan and nodded, thinking that they should all help.
Seeing that everyone was very interested, Logan nodded, and then said: "It doesn't take so many people. I plan to take three people."
After all, their identities are somewhat special and can easily be exposed if there are too many people.
And this time it was just a rescue mission, and we would leave as soon as we rescued people. Four people, plus the three Hans brothers, were enough.
"Take me one."
Lorna stood up, volunteered and patted her chest, "I haven't participated in a mission for a long time, and my ability is to manipulate metal, and I can easily open various cages, which is very suitable for rescue missions!"
Seeing Lorna's insistent look, Logan thought for a moment and then nodded: "Okay, I'll count you in."
After speaking, he glanced at the crowd and pointed at Marcos, "Marcus, you can join us."
When Marcos saw that he was chosen, he immediately stood up with a smile and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you down."
Logan smiled and glanced at the crowd again, but he had trouble with the last choice.
"What are you still thinking about?"
Victor looked at him and raised his eyebrows, "Is there a more suitable candidate than me?"
Logan glanced at him and shook his head without hesitation: "You stay this time."
As soon as these words came out, Victor was stunned, his brows furrowed, and his eyes were clearly unconvinced, "Hey, Logan, I'm not too old to go on missions yet!"
Logan rolled his eyes at him, "Don't talk."
Victor's face darkened, and he obviously wanted to say something more, but after thinking about it, he chose to shut up, hold his chest and retreat to the corner of the room to sulk.
Although he was very unconvinced by Logan's arrangement, he also knew that since Logan had just become a leader, he needed to accumulate prestige, so it was better to refute him less.
Logan, on the other hand, continued to hesitate, vacillating among several candidates.
Victor has other plans. John and Klaus are obviously not suitable for the mission, so there are very few people to choose from.
At this time, a small figure rushed in, "Choose me, I will also participate in the mission!"
Logan looked towards the childish voice, it was Clarice who had been standing outside.
"Nonsense, what kind of mission are children participating in?"
Logan rejected the little girl's request without hesitation. Although he didn't have any good candidates, he still wouldn't let a teenage child participate in the mission.
But Clarice still insisted, "Uncle Wolf, don't refuse so quickly. My ability will be of great help to the mission. I can now teleport hundreds of meters at will, so I am the best choice to participate in the rescue mission!" "
She looked at Logan with an arrogant look on her face, very confident in her abilities.
Charles on the side looked at her, nodded and said: "She has indeed made rapid progress recently. If it is a rescue, it may be more useful to take her with her."
He has been teaching children before, and he knows what each child's abilities are and what abilities they can display.
Among them, Clarice has indeed made rapid progress. In addition to being slightly younger, her abilities have indeed met the needs of missions.
After listening to Charles' words, Logan looked at Clarice and finally nodded, "Okay, I'll take one of you with me, and we'll go back and get ready. We'll set off later, and the others will be at home to tidy up the town."
After hearing this, everyone nodded and turned to leave.
Logan, on the other hand, left Victor with a sulky look on his face.
"Hey, Logan, you can't do this, would you rather take a kid with you than me?"
After everyone left, Victor couldn't help but question Logan, obviously not convinced by Logan's arrangement.
"no."
Logan shook his head and said in a deep voice: "The reason why I don't take you with me is because I need someone who is trustworthy and has good strength to stay at home. Especially after the lesson learned from Maika, the family needs someone with enough strength. If you stick to it, even if there is an enemy situation, you can hold on for a longer time or save more people. "
Hearing this, Victor's originally angry expression relaxed and he nodded: "You told me earlier, don't worry, I will definitely be able to keep this place safe and reliable!"
Looking at Victor's appearance, Logan smiled and shook his head, "Okay, I'll go get ready. You just stay well."
After a short preparation, everyone prepared what they needed, got on the second-hand off-road vehicle they bought when they arrived, and drove out of the grassland to the place agreed with Hans.
This is a mountain forest more than 100 kilometers away from the plateau.
The trees in the mountain forest are dense and there are many wild animals growing there. The roar of cars is particularly harsh in this silent mountain forest.
Logan pressed the navigation button and drove the car under a huge old tree.
This ancient tree seemed to be at least hundreds of years old. The thick trunk was at least tens of meters long. Even ten people could not hug it. The lush branches and leaves covered it like a huge umbrella.
There was a very large wooden house built in the branches of the ancient tree. Hans was at the door, putting down a rope ladder for them and beckoning them to come up.
Under the leadership of Logan, everyone climbed up the ladder and entered the wooden house.
The wooden house with ancient trees as its main body is very large. It is even divided into several rooms and living rooms. There is a long table and wooden sofa in the living room, which looks very luxurious.
Hans invited everyone to sit down. Besides him, his two brothers were also in the cabin.
After Hans's introduction, Logan learned the names of his two brothers, one named Colin and the other named Maier. At this time, the three brothers' expressions were surprisingly bad and very panicked.
"Thank you for coming."
Hans poured tea for several people and said with a low expression: "If it weren't for nothing, I wouldn't seek you. It's just that our father was taken away by a group of people. With the strength of our three brothers, it is really impossible to rescue. I hope you can Help us get him out."
Logan nodded without hesitation, "Don't worry, since I'm here, I will definitely take care of this matter."
After saying that, he hesitated and asked, "But can you tell me the name of your father?"
He was very curious whether the father of these three weirdos was Hank.
Hearing this, Hans turned his head to look at the two brothers, who nodded helplessly. Hans then sighed and said, "Actually, you know him. He used to be your comrade-in-arms and an X-Man. He is what you call Beast Hank, the former director of the Department of Mutant Affairs."
"It's him."
Logan nodded, but he was not surprised. This was already in his guess. However, after getting the confirmation, he couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect he was still alive."
After saying that, he looked at Hans and the others and sighed again, "And they have three children this big."
After many years of separation, Logan was both sighing and worried when he got to know his old friend again. He sighed that his old friend looked good over the years, and worried about who had captured him and what the purpose was.
"He has not been in good health, so he did not go to see you before."
Hans sighed and shook his head, his eyes flashing with ferocity, "But I didn't expect that we have been hiding for so long, and that group of people still didn't intend to let him go. They are obviously coming for my father!"
After he finished speaking, Colin and Maile's faces were also filled with anger. They pounded the wooden table heavily, and they were extremely angry.
Looking at their reactions, Logan frowned, "Who are those people?"
"We don't know either."
Hans shook his head and said in a deep voice: "They are a group of superhumans. We can't tell whether they are mutants or superpowers for the time being, but they all have superpowers."
After a pause, Hans added: "Before they took my father away, I temporarily threw them a micro-locator. According to the instructions of the locator, they have now arrived in Hawaii, the United States."
Hearing this, Logan was relieved, "Now that we know the location, it will be much easier. Let's set off now."
After speaking, he stood up and led everyone out of the wooden house.
Now that they know the location, they don’t have to investigate anymore and can just head to Hawaii!
