Springfield, Ohio.
The night was like ink, with scattered Starlight, and the carnival amusement park was brightly lit and bustling with people.
Most of the popular attractions were crowded with people, with only a few less popular and uninteresting attractions looking deserted.
Chris Bradley sat in his booth, looking enviously at the surrounding liveliness, the light bulb on the table in front of him flickering, just like his mood at the moment.
The excitement is theirs, I have nothing!
"What do you do?" A tall and beautiful woman came to his booth and asked curiously.
He had a customer, but he didn't seem excited. Many people had asked throughout the night, but very few were actually willing to spend money to play.
Sitting up slightly and forcing a smile that could barely be called enthusiastic, he explained, "You can win a prize just by turning off the light."
"One dollar for three tries."
The tall and beautiful woman looked at the light bulb on the table and the switch next to it, smiled, and handed over the money.
"I want to try."
Chris Bradley's eyes lit up, and his demeanor became a little more enthusiastic.
"Snap!"
The woman flipped the switch, but the light bulb remained bright.
"This is too obvious." The woman suspected he was cheating and directly unplugged the light bulb's power cord.
But, the light bulb did not go out.
Chris Bradley proudly held up two fingers: "Twice."
The woman smiled, looked at him, and unscrewed the light bulb from the socket.
However... the light bulb remained bright!
"A little interesting."
The woman was slightly surprised, put down the gradually heating light bulb, and smiled at Chris Bradley, whose expression had already changed slightly.
"My Master wants to talk to You."
Chris Bradley's body tensed, and he said with a nervous, forced smile, "I, I don't think there's anything to talk about."
The woman smiled and shook her head: "I don't want You to think, I want me to think!"
"..."
Chris Bradley stared at her: "Who are You?"
The woman shook her head again: "Who I am is not important, what's important is who my Master is."
Chris Bradley shrugged and went along with it: "Okay, then who is your Master?"
"You'll know when You see him."
We're back to square one.
Chris Bradley sighed and said seriously, "Listen, I don't care who You and your Master are, I don't want to cause trouble, You can leave."
"What if I don't?"
"Buzz buzz buzz--"
The sound of current surged, and all the lights in the booth strangely emitted light beyond their capacity and began to flash rapidly.
"I'm not afraid of You!"
Chris Bradley stared at her, his eyes cold and fierce.
The next second.
His expression froze, and a fawning, forced smile appeared on his face.
With a dark gun barrel pointed at him, he couldn't be tough at all.
"Didn't You say You weren't afraid?"
The woman said with a playful smile, pointing to an RV not far behind the booth.
That was his RV, and also his home.
His home was stolen...
Chris Bradley was a little incredulous.
His ability is to generate electricity and control all electrical appliances. There are many cameras in the RV. Although at first glance they are not connected to power, they are actually always running.
If someone entered the RV, he would know immediately, and even see what the cameras could see through them.
But so far, the images seen by the cameras were normal, and there was no one in the somewhat dim RV.
Putting on airs, or was her Master not here at all, requiring him to drive there himself?
Chris Bradley thought this while already arriving at the still dim RV door.
"Snap!"
The moment the car door opened, all the lights inside suddenly turned on.
The sudden light made him subconsciously raise his hand to shield his eyes, squinting.
"Hiss--"
A moment later, he gasped, looking in disbelief at Samuel sitting on the sofa, his arms around the shoulders of a pair of twin sisters.
"This... there are so many people." He said, making small talk, and nodded towards Keira, White Queen, and Xiao Ruiwen beside him.
There was clearly no one in the car just now, how did they appear?
Alright, how they appeared is no longer important, what's important is what Samuel's purpose is in coming to find him?
After the Mutant Squad disbanded, Samuel didn't leave because of Keira. Now, suddenly bringing so many people to find him, this doesn't seem like catching up.
"Samuel, long time no see." Chris Bradley said, forcing a calm smile and greeting him.
Samuel smiled and shook his head: "Not very long, right."
Whether it's long or not, does it matter?
Chris Bradley: "You came to find me, is there something?"
"I came to show you something good." Samuel said with a smile, waving his hand.
A corpse appeared out of thin air and fell in front of Chris Bradley.
"Zero, Agent Zero?"
Chris Bradley was startled, his breathing suddenly quickened: "You, you killed him?"
"To be precise, he tried to kill me, and I killed him instead."
Samuel said with a smile: "William Stryker has a plan for me to pretend to defect, hunt down the members of the Mutant Squad, and force Wolverine to voluntarily accept his transformation."
"..."
Chris Bradley subconsciously glanced at the door. Big Raven, who brought him here, stood in front of the door, smiling at him.
Want to run?
Give up!
Chris Bradley showed a bitter smile. Although he wasn't a particularly smart person, he knew he was in trouble.
In big trouble!
Samuel confessed William Stryker's plan so directly, he had no choice left.
Either be with Samuel, or... die!
Chris Bradley said with a bitter smile: "I want to know what happened."
"In Nigeria, I voluntarily joined you. My purpose was to use William Stryker to recruit the Mutants I admire!"
"Except for them, everyone else was rescued by me from William Stryker."
From the beginning, Samuel greatly admired Thunderbolt in the Mutant Squad, which was Chris Bradley in front of him.
Although his ability wasn't very offensive, its applicability and practicality were very strong.
So the first target was him!
Chris Bradley said in surprise: "Then you... are you now at odds with William Stryker?"
Samuel smiled and shook his head: "I'm cooperating with him and continuing to carry out his plan."
"Then you... what do you mean now?"
"You know."
I've told you the truth, what else could it mean?
A choice between two.
Either become one of us, or become a dead person.
Chris Bradley wanted to refuse, but he knew he couldn't. Samuel had already given him a way out; letting him leave was impossible.
After all, this was William Stryker's plan. Even if Samuel was willing to let him go, William Stryker wouldn't.
If he wasn't mistaken, after the Mutant Squad disbanded, their whereabouts had always been within William Stryker's grasp.
Chris Bradley was silent for a moment, then said with a bitter smile: "I want to say I'm not afraid of death, I'm not afraid of you, but in fact, I am afraid!"
"From now on, I am yours."
