Chapter 726: Going on a mission

Seeing that the Ghost Shadow Soldier had returned to its original state, and that in addition to its original metal samurai sword, it could also transform into a shadow weapon, Lorna became even more interested in Zhang Ziyu.

Because this is an ability that exists solely for fighting, and it is the talent most needed by the mutant underground organization.

"Unless the darkness is dispelled, they will never truly disappear."

Lorna thought thoughtfully and asked: "Can't it be used during the day or under full light conditions?"

Zhang Ziyu shook his head slightly: "Don't underestimate the darkness." To dispel the darkness in him and ask the boss Dormammu if he would answer, don't even think about it in this universe.

Lorna laughed when she heard this: "Then you may be able to help me soon."

"Is it because John was called away today?"

Lorna nodded and said in a low tone: "There is something wrong with the station over at Marietta. A group of rescued mutants are missing. We are now checking for information."

She knew what it meant to be missing, to be arrested by the Sentinel Secret Service, or even more terrifying, to be attacked by an experimental facility or even a gang, which could potentially attack mutants.

On the surface, mutants are sanctioned, suppressed, and discriminated against by anti-mutant laws, but behind the scenes, mutants are money, the best consumable for experiments.

Even criminals have human rights, but mutants don't.

"Has the mutant underground always been like this, running around putting out fires, just like the X-Men?"

"X-Men?"

Lorna shook her head, a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes: "They disappeared. Now we are just making small fuss and helping our compatriots as much as possible."

She waved her hand easily, and the empty can placed on the roof of the car flew directly into the depths of the forest, making a clanging sound.

She leaned against the car and sat half-reclined. She patted the hood of the old car and motioned for Zhang Ziyu to come over.

She smiled and said: "So we hope to have stronger mutants join us, like you."

"Instead of longing for stronger people to join you, you should long for greater power."

Zhang Ziyu also leaned against the car and looked sideways at Lorna.

Lorna was silent for a moment: "Not every mutant can become stronger. Most of them are even worse than ordinary people."

She looked at Zhang Ziyu's words and asked curiously: "What about you, what did you do when you found out that you had mutant abilities?"

"My ability?"

Zhang Ziyu himself has no mutant ability, but when it comes to the beginning of his path to transcendence, he can't help but think of his unlucky master Shimu.

"My family's traditional courage training program, my family was thrown into the grave overnight by me, and then they gradually gained abilities."

Lorna looked in disbelief, then laughed out loud: "Your family is really interesting. Are you afraid of awakening the ability? No wonder it is like this."

"It's almost the same. It's all about courage training. It's actually not bad. Anyway, I can't control it now."

When Lorna heard what Zhang Ziyu said, she couldn't help but misunderstood, and comforted: "Your family will be very happy to see that you are okay."

Zhang Ziyu: No, my master is really not dead.

He was also holding back his bad intentions. Anyway, he was not the one who was cursed to death. Master could just take more care of him.

Lorna looked at the stars in the night sky and said calmly: "I was abandoned by my parents when I was a child. Later, my adoptive parents adopted me. I was not very obedient when I was a child. They always said that I was a wild child. Later, I awakened my abilities.

, if my hair becomes like this, they won’t want me anymore.”

Lorna's experience is actually the experience of most mutants.

In this parallel universe, the existence of mutants was discovered by the public much earlier than in the main mutant universe, and the degree of conflict intensified is unimaginable.

The situation is like fire and water, even if mutants do not use their abilities, they will become the target of discrimination and exclusion, including their family members.

It is precisely for this reason that many young mutants will be kicked out of their homes because of their ability awakening during their teenage years.

"Let's not talk about it anymore." She revealed the topic, and then said: "Actually, the mutant underground organization is not just ours, there are other sites, with their own leaders, and sometimes there will be distribution of material supplies, and usually they are mainly for rescue.

Mutants, sometimes fighting is inevitable, so we need your help."

She made it clear that the purpose of calling Zhang Ziyu out at night was to talk about the mutant underground organization so that he could know more about the organization.

"I have to work part-time when I join. Will I be paid?"

"No, but if you can make money yourself, that's up to you."

Lorna pursed her lips, but her words were not rigid. As long as Zhang Ziyu could make money and was not a heinous one, she wouldn't care.

This is different from Thunderbird John.

------------------

Early the next morning, just after breakfast, John summoned all members of the underground organization.

He frowned and looked unhappy, obviously he had bad news.

Lorna and Zhang Ziyu were the last to arrive in the living room. When John saw that everyone was here, he started talking.

"The Sage intercepted the police communications. The group of people who disappeared from the Marietta site were captured by the Sentinel Secret Service and detained at the control center on the outskirts of Marietta. Some of them may have to be escorted to other areas for detention by the Secret Service. Then

The side stations are not strong enough to rescue them, so they need our help."

Sonia's eyes widened and she immediately objected: "It is a control center. Although it is not a prison, it is still guarded and monitored by a large number of guards. If there is any trouble, people from the Sentinel Secret Service will be immediately attracted. This is too dangerous."

John said solemnly: "But they must be saved. These people came out of Marietta and were preparing to go to Mexico. If they let the Secret Service transfer the people and start focused interrogation, the Marietta site is likely to be exposed.

Not only are the people inside in danger, there is also big trouble outside."

Lorna asked: "How many people are there in this batch?"

"Twenty-three, but there are other mutants in the control center."

John said: "We need to send people over, Lorna and I will lead the team there, Sonia and Xianzhe will stay here to look after the camp, and Shaji..."

"Shaji doesn't need to go there. Zhang and I will go there together, plus you, that's enough. We can't take all the people here away."

Lorna interrupted John's arrangement, but when John heard the plan, he subconsciously looked at Zhang Ziyu.

"He just arrived at our camp yesterday, does he need to get used to it?"

After all, good old John said this very euphemistically, but he was actually asking Zhang Ziyu if he could do it.

Although with his perceptual ability, he could feel that Zhang Ziyu had huge energy, there were also mutants who had huge energy but could not display their strength.

Lorna said categorically, "He has very good abilities, right?"

Her eyes fell on Zhang Ziyu and she was very confident in him.

"It's a million things, but it's okay to do a favor."

He felt relaxed and agreed.

Seeing this, John knew that he did have a manpower problem, so he said: "That's it, we will set off in a while, and the sage will help pay attention to the official situation."

"receive."
