American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

Old Wolverine has been restless lately.

Oh, he has abandoned his nickname and his own name.

Now he is neither Wolverine nor Logan. After registering as an online ride-hailing driver, he rediscovered his original name-James Howlett.

Sitting quietly in his rented luxury car, Old Wolf James always felt that a big event was about to happen, and this event was likely to bring greater disaster to this already dilapidated world.

James knows that his special feeling is definitely not groundless. He has always been very sensitive to danger. Although his self-healing factor can allow him to recover from any serious injury, this does not mean that he is not afraid of anything.

One-Eyed Dragon, Jean Gray, and the Beast. Friends left his life one after another, and this kind of mental torture destroyed his heart all the time.

James doesn't know what the unknown disaster is, and he doesn't know where the world will go. Now he just wants to take Charles and Caliban away, as far away from this continent as possible.

The tension was getting bigger and bigger, and James felt like he was out of breath. He took a sip of wine and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.

This bad feeling is getting deeper and deeper, especially when I suddenly came into contact with two strange mutants recently.

Yes, James could recognize it at a glance. The two people who appeared to help him that day were mutants like himself, and their abilities were even stronger than his own.

But even so, Old James doesn't want to have too much contact with them.

There are no more mutants in the world. It is no joke that there have not been any new mutants in the past ten years. The 'new humans' that were so famous back then are now almost extinct and will become history.

James didn't know where Zhang Yi and Petra came from. He guessed that these two people should be guys who ran away from some laboratories, or they were bumpkins who crawled out of some remote country.

In any case, James is not willing to meddle in other people's business. Now, he has no ability to help them, and he doesn't even have the ability to protect himself.

At this moment, the sound of a car door opening suddenly came from behind, and without James reacting, the other party got directly into the back seat of the car.

Frowning slightly, Old James slowly turned his head.

"Brother, I've already taken the order online, you'd better change to another car."

"Hehehe"

In the back seat, a lean man with short hair sneered when he heard this. He took off his sunglasses, and James could clearly see the tattoos exposed on his neck.

After looking directly at James for a long time, the man slowly spoke to break the silence.

"Logan, it's our first time meeting you, but I've been friends with you for a long time."

"You got the wrong person." James' face was expressionless and cold, and at the same time, he felt a sense of irritation in his heart for no reason.

"Ha, don't be nervous, Wolverine. I'm an old fan of You. You know, I've been reading your comics since I was a child. I don't want to be too curious about you." The man smiled slightly.

"Who the hell are you?" Old James sounded threatening.

But the man didn't seem to care at all. He didn't answer at all. Instead, he spoke to himself.

"I originally thought you were in Phoenix, because my informant told me that you are active there all year round, but last night, several of my friends in Texas called me

They said that something magical was discovered at an exit of Highway 54, and the local police received a missing person report. Originally, this was not a big deal. After all, you know that for people there, disappearances are not uncommon.

But guess what, the police adjusted the surveillance and found that those people never appeared again after getting off the highway. They investigated all the surrounding buildings overnight, and finally dug three feet into the ground and finally found those people buried under the ground. Gangster. "

Listening to the words of the strange man in front of him, James's face became more and more gloomy. It was obvious that the gangsters mentioned by the man in front of him were the same group of people who stole car tires who targeted him before.

In order to avoid being caught, James Lao deliberately left Texas. Unexpectedly, he was still targeted.

Not paying attention to Wolverine's expression, the man continued.

"Judging from the surveillance footage, there weren't many people there that night. Except for some large trucks pulling goods, a 24-model Chrysler was very conspicuous, which reminded me of you."

Having said this, the man leaned forward, stared into Old James's eyes, and sighed softly.

"Listen, Old Wolf, I'm not here to find you. Believe it or not, but I'm serious. At least, I'm not here this time. I want to know what happened that night."

"I don't understand what you are talking about, get out of my car." Old James replied coldly.

Feeling Wolverine's hostility, the man gradually stopped smiling. He pursed his lips and couldn't help but sigh.

"You can rest assured that I am not interested in you. I just want to know who did this. You may not understand the seriousness of the problem. Although the mutants have disappeared, there has been greater chaos in the world. .

Many people have come here inexplicably, and many people have disappeared in this world inexplicably. No one knows where they came from, nor how many intruders there are. All we can do is ensure the safety of the world. That's all. "

Listening to the man's words silently, Old James subconsciously thought of Zhang Yi and Petra that night, but he only thought about it for a moment, and then shook his head slightly.

"I was drunk that night and didn't see anything."

"Really?" The man's lips raised. "I know what you're hiding, dear old friend, your old bald guy from the south of the border."

Hearing this, Wolverine's heart immediately lifted.

"What do you want to do?" Although James felt very uneasy, he still pretended to be calm.

"I want you to cooperate well with me." The man said in a deep voice. "Our world is being invaded by some evil force, and it's under my control now, so."

As he spoke, the man took out a business card and gently placed it on the back of James' seat.

"If you think of anything, contact me."

After doing all this, the man opened the car door and walked out regardless of Wolverine's reaction.

Old James had been watching the other party walk into a Cadillac on the corner, and then slowly withdrew his gaze.

Picking up the business card from the backrest, from the outside, it looks like a very ordinary business card. There is no fancy decoration on it, just a line of letters painted in black on a white background.

On the front is the Akali Transgenic Research Institute, with the name 'Donald Pearce' underneath, and on the back is the name of a large company - the Essex Group.

He stared at the business card blankly for a long time.

Wolverine suddenly cursed loudly, and then quickly tore it into pieces.

One day later, at dawn, Wolverine drove to the coast of the Golden Sea.

"Mr. Esperanza, please, I know I said June, but I need that ship now, really."

While making a phone call, Old James carefully looked at his surroundings. He was afraid that he would be targeted by some forces or followed by something else.

Having been hiding for most of his life, no one understands this situation better than him.

Since he was a child, James has embarked on the road of escape. After being transformed into Wolverine, he is still on the run. Later, he has a family, but now, the family is separated. In addition to running away, he There is no way.

"Why!?"

Suddenly, Old James became excited. He held the phone tightly and growled.

"We agreed at the beginning, why do we have to increase the price now? Listen to me, I really need that ship now, but the time has just been advanced a little."

But soon his tone weakened and he pleaded.

"Well, I have two pieces of gold on hand now. This is hard currency, 30 ounces. It is definitely enough for your request, and it is even higher than the price you want."

"What? You want cash!?"

Old James was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but said eagerly.

"Where can I get cash now? Can't you just go to the gold shop to trade!? Hello?"

"Hello? Hello??"

There was a busy signal on the phone, and it was obvious that the other party hung up the communication directly.

Old James put down the phone tremblingly, resisted the urge to throw it out, cursed secretly, and rubbed his temples angrily.

The gold Zhang Yi gave him was indeed good. It was not gold-plated or mined gold, but solid gold. These two large pieces were expensive even on the black market.

But because of his status, James knew that he could not follow the proper procedures to convert the gold into cash.

Unless he is willing to take a trip to the black market to see if the gangs are willing to eat this food.

But anyone who has been in contact with those people knows that if an old man goes to that place with such a valuable thing, he will definitely be eaten up by others. Old James doesn't want to cause more murders, and he doesn't want to go back to the way he used to be. in life.

Just when Wolverine was in agony, an extremely unstable purple portal opened directly from the roof of the car.

The next moment, the two women fell directly from the portal and fell heavily into the spacious back seat.

This sudden scene startled old James. He stabilized his steering wheel in a panic and almost hit the guardrail on the roadside.

At the same time, he also looked at the two strange girls who came uninvited from the rearview mirror in surprise.

One of them has purple hair, and the other has dark green hair.

They didn't move at all after falling into the car, and it looked like they were knocked unconscious.

Looking at this scene, old James didn't speak for a long time.

He didn't know how long it took before he couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Fake!!"
