The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 277 Infiltration
Although this aircraft does not have an official name yet, its capabilities are almost the same as the X-Jet in the main universe. One has to sigh that Beast Hank is worthy of being one of the wisest people in the Marvel Universe, and he can still assemble a powerful aircraft in a limited environment.

Sitting obediently in the aircraft, the bored Yang Le played "See You Again" in his mind while the aircraft was flying. Although it was a bit unlucky, even if it really crashed, no one would die in this flight.

At worst, just fight your way out of Hell and elbow Mephisto hard.

Perhaps in order to get into the right state, even the King of Cards spoke very little along the way. He just kept playing with the cards in his hand. In his words, this was his warm-up to prevent his fingers from getting stiff.

The others were also adjusting their states in their own ways. The X-Men in this universe were still newbies, so it was normal for them to be nervous before a mission.

"We're here." The beast pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose with one hand. "Prepare to land."

Through the front window of the aircraft, Yang Le could see that the place where they landed was a forest. It was called landing, but in fact it was just low-altitude hovering. After all, this place did not have a suitable environment for landing.

"There's no open space nearby, so you're on your own." The beast turned around and looked at the group. "There are only trees nearby, so good luck."

The aircraft is only three or four meters above the ground. A parachute is definitely not possible at this altitude. Even if it could be used, it would be useless because a parachute has no stealth function, and such a large target can be easily discovered.

"It's okay, Hank." Yang Le unbuckled his seatbelt and stood at the cabin door. "I'll find a way. Just follow me."

After Yang Le finished speaking, he immediately jumped out of the aircraft. A big tree stretched out its branches to catch Yang Le in mid-air, and then gently placed him on the ground.

Seeing this, the other X-Men did not hesitate and jumped out of the aircraft one after another. Yang Le controlled the big tree to catch them one by one.

"This is the first time I've been hugged by a tree." said the King of Cards.

"We landed safely Hank." Scott informed Hank using the communication device.

"Roger that," Hank replied. "I'll be nearby."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hank controlled the aircraft to fly into the sky and disappeared in a short while.

After watching Hank leave, Scott said, "Let's go."

According to the coordinates sent by Mystique, everyone can easily find the way forward even in a dense forest.

There was no conversation along the way. Because we didn't know if there were any patrolling enemies nearby, everyone was very vigilant. Basically, we were moving forward step by step, groping our way forward.

Yang Le was somewhat helpless. These ordinary plants were too low-level. Even if the swamp fire had the ability to communicate with plants, it could not obtain any useful information from them.

Although the journey was bumpy, everyone still arrived at their destination smoothly, a forest that looked no different from any other place.

"The target given by Riven is just ahead. The forest in front of us is just a camouflage." Scott retracted the instrument.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Rimi asked puzzledly.

Jean explained: "This camouflaged barrier will trigger the alarm once we pass through. We need to contact Raven first to ask her to turn off the alarm of the base, otherwise we won't be able to sneak in." Scott put his hand on the communication device on his ear and contacted Mystique Raven.

"Mystique, Mystique, this is Cyclops, if you hear me, please reply, if you hear me, please reply."

Because Scott is the captain, all communications are handled by him, but everyone is equipped with communication devices, which allows everyone to know the various situations at the first time.

Disturbingly, there was no response for about a minute after Scott finished speaking.

"Mystique, Mystique." There was no way, Scott could only repeat what he had just said again, but unfortunately no one responded.

"Damn it." The King of Cards' face turned pale and he kept cursing.

Jean put her hand on Scott's shoulder, comforting her boyfriend, although her own face didn't look very good either.

Seeing that everyone was in low spirits, Yang Le had to stand up and encourage them. After all, this team was still very young, and Yang Le, who lied about his age, was actually the oldest in the team.

"Relax, everyone. You have to believe in the abilities of our companions. Since Mystique possesses the ability to disguise herself as anyone, even if she is exposed, it is not impossible for her to escape."

"Harpy is right." As the captain, Scott immediately cheered up. "Don't assume the worst of everything. We don't have time to stand here like idiots. There are still many compatriots waiting for us to save them."

"It seems we have to choose a strong attack." The King of Cards flipped his wrist, and a deck of cards appeared in his hand, but was stopped by Yang Le.

"I have a better idea." Yang Le said as he took off his clothes, and the true appearance of Swamp Fire was revealed to everyone.

When they saw Yang Le's true face, their eyes just flickered for a moment, and there was no other change. Speaking of weird, Beast Hank was actually no less weird.

"My body is no different from a plant." Yang Le placed his hand on his chest. "I can burrow into the ground like a plant, and I can cross this barrier without triggering the alarm. Once I'm inside, I'll find another way."

"Adapt to circumstances? I like that." The King of Cards whistled softly. Actually, he was just trying to lighten the mood. Not many people like unexpected things.

Scott thought for a while and said helplessly, "This is the only way. Remember to keep in touch with your harpy. If you encounter danger, save your life immediately. Only by living can you have a future."

"I will." Yang Le nodded, twisted his body and got into the ground in the blink of an eye.

"Let's find a place to hide and wait for news from the harpy." Scott said and then led everyone away in the opposite direction. After all, this was the edge of the barrier, and it would be bad if a group of people showed up and discovered them.

Not to mention Scott and his group, Yang Le, who had burrowed underground, was moving forward at a fairly fast speed. The swamp fire that had entered adulthood after flowering had been strengthened in all directions. If the original underground burrowing was like walking, Yang Le was now running.

After walking about three hundred meters, Yang Le extended a root out of the soil, disguised it as a wild flower that could be found everywhere, and connected it to his own vision, so that he could obtain information from the outside world without exposing himself.

This was also an ability that Yang Le came up with himself. After all, even if the swamp fire was broken into a pile of mud, it could be resurrected on any piece of debris at will, and changing its physiological structure was not a big deal.
