As he was stared at like this, Syd felt sowhat helpless. After thinking for a while, he decided to reveal so information.
Under the dim light, he slowly began to tell Logan about his story.
"In a Canadian manor in 1845, you were just a six or seven-year-old child, frail and often ill."
"Your na was Jas Howlett, your father, who loved you dearly, called you by your nickna, Jimmy. A tragedy occurred one night..."
As he narrated, Logan's expression was no longer calm; his rugged face slowly turned into a look of shock, as if the story was bringing back so mories.
Syd glanced at him and continued, "The gardener at the manor killed your father, which triggered your mutant gene..."
He looked at Logan's hands.
Then, he revealed sothing that shocked Logan.
"You killed the gardener with your bone claws, but you didn't know that he was your real father..."
"Your mother saw you as a monster, and you ran away from ho, along with your half- brother from the sa mother, Sabretooth."
Hearing this shocking news, Logan's eyes widened, and so mories flashed in his mind.
"You changed your na to Logan, and you and Victor went through World War I, World War II, and other wars until one day, you t Colonel Stryker..."
As he spoke, Syd glanced at Logan, thinking about how after so many battles, he got no recognition or benefits, and still suffered persecution from Colonel Stryker; it was indeed a tragic story.
Listening, Logan was gradually stirred.
Who was he, and how did he know so much...
Logan muttered to himself, looking puzzled.
At this mont, two n who were close friends of Logan and mutants as well, also showed surprise as they listened.
They had been with Logan for so long and did not know he had such a story.
They knew Logan had amnesia, but how did this young man across from them know all these things?
The two exchanged a look, feeling an eerie sense of mystery, as if a fog surrounded the young man, making him seem mysterious.
Syd then looked at the two n and then at Logan's expression, and once he was sure Logan wasn't paying attention, he continued his story.
"You joined a mutant organization led by Stryker, whose mbers included Victor Sabretooth, Wade, a rcenary skilled with swords..."
Speaking of Deadpool, Syd's eyes showed a peculiar glint, wondering if he was still alive, as that would be quite troubleso.
Then, he introduced other mbers like Agent Zero, Phantom, Blob, and Bradley, ntioning their skills and superpowers as well.
As they listened, Logan and the other two felt increasingly strange, finding the young man ever more mysterious.
"Is this military secrecy?"
"You seem to know too much, are you sure you're just a teenager?"
The middle-aged Otto, with many wrinkles on his face, couldn't help but speak up.
The lean, bearded, thirty-sothing Valentin also nodded in agreent.
Even questioning Logan to confirm if the young man's words triggered so mories, after Logan's confirmation, Valentin and Otto's eyes widened, their surprise turning into deep suspicion as they looked at the young man.
Syd continued solemnly.
Then, he described how Victor's beastliness beca apparent during their missions, and Logan, unwilling to continue being a killing machine, chose to leave. He also ntioned Logan living under a false identity as a lumberjack, being betrayed by his girlfriend, and joining the Weapon X program.
Finally, he included the fact that Logan lost his mories due to these events. "Logan, your claws..."
As he spoke, Valentin and Otto couldn't help but glance at Logan's hands.
Even Logan couldn't resist looking at his hands, finally understanding the tallic structure of his skeleton.
Logan gratefully looked at the mysterious figure in front of him.
He didn't know who the other party was, but since he had told him the truth, he was thankful.
However, after this barrage of information and his friends Valentin and Otto's company, they all had one question.
Who was this young man?
He even knew the things Logan had forgotten, down to the details of military experints.
"Like he witnessed it himself?"
They couldn't help but harbor this bizarre thought.
Then, they all denied it, feeling it was impossible; the young man looked too young to have
seen these events himself.
From his deanor, he didn't seem like an old monster, just a young man.
Speaking of old monsters, Valentin and Otto looked at Logan, amazed by his age.
Could Logan be old enough to be their grandfather?
Logan, still sowhat shocked, found it hard to imagine how a young man knew things even
he had forgotten.
The mories brought back a real feeling, letting him know the young man's words were
true.
Now, though he hadn't fully recovered his mory, listening to the young man's narrative had restored so of his mory, helping him understand the general course of events and
his origins.
But then there was a question.
Logan's expression was complex as he muttered, "Kid, who exactly are you?"
Could the other party be soone related to him?
Not an enemy...
An acquaintance?
A relative?
He irritably raised an eyebrow.
Suddenly, at that mont, he felt the young man's gaze was sowhat pitying, as if he pitied
sothing about him.
"Kid, why do you look at like that?"
Syd opened his mouth, sighed, and finally didn't say anything.
After recounting the first half of Wolverine's story, he thought of Wolverine's tragic end in his
later years.
In his old age, Wolverine had fallen to driving a taxi just to make ends et, and now, that Wolverine was gone forever...
In the end, he died to save other mutants, and the plot looked sowhat disheartening and uncomfortable.
The last part truly portrayed Logan as a hero, not just a mutant fighting battles.
Syd shook his head.
It wasn't just Wolverine; even Professor Charles Xavier had a tragic old age, developing
dentia.
The strongest human brain developing dentia was indeed unbelievable.
Perhaps it was because the body wasn't originally his, but his comatose brother's, who had lain bedridden for years without using his brain, which might have contributed to the
potential issues.
Of course, it might also have been due to governnt-researched genetically modified foods. Under such foods, not only were newborns' mutant genes suppressed, but even those who had triggered superpowers were affected.
Logan's self-healing factor was likely weakened due to these factors, along with the potential Adamantium tal toxicity he suffered without his healing factor to counteract it, causing his body to deteriorate and age gradually.
That era, too, due to governnt-researched genetically modified foods, made it very difficult for mutants to be born, leaving few mutants, nearly extinct...
Overall, it was a terrible ti for mutants and a terrible ending.
Syd was unclear whether this was a story from another tiline or sothing that would
happen in the future.
"Will there be a chance to change it in the future, or the ability to go to that tiline and
change so things?"
"Teach those governnts a lesson?"
"Let them experience once again the threat and fear that mutants can bring?"
Syd mused regretfully.
Of course, after thinking so much, if he had to choose his favorite period of Wolverine, it
would still be Wolverine's later years.
Not only because he was more mature then, but there was also a sense of impending twilight that could move people.
Suddenly, he thought of sothing, and his expression changed slightly.
He suddenly wondered, if the tiline were reversed, like in X-n: Days of Future Past,
would he be erased?
Thinking this, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis, a pressing desire to increase his power.
He shook his head, glanced at Logan and the others, and put aside the thought for the
mont.
Listening to Logan's earlier question, he smiled casually and said, "Why do I look at you like that? Because I thought of your later years, which are a terrible ending; you probably don't want to know..."
As his words fell, Logan and the others were montarily stunned, then they all started
laughing.
They thought the young man was joking; after all, who can see soone else's future?
But, while they thought so, they also felt sothing unusual, as if the young man wasn't
joking, which seed very strange.
Impossible...
It shouldn't be possible...
Logan and the others looked increasingly suspicious and confused as they gazed at the young
man.
Who was he, and how could he know so much, as if he had seen it with his own eyes?
"This is too mysterious, isn't it?" Otto muttered.
Loud rock music continued to play.
At that mont, Valentin looked around and asked quietly, "Are you a mutant too?"
With that, Syd looked surprised for a mont at him, then looked at Logan and nodded in
affirmation, "Yes."
"What's your ability?" Valentin's spirits lifted.
Before Syd could answer, Logan and Otto's ears perked up.
They hadn't waited for Syd's response before they had imagined a series of powers in their
minds.
"Prophecy?"
"Or sothing related to ti?"
They couldn't help but think so, given how mysterious the young man had seed,
mysterious enough that they had to guess; otherwise, they couldn't explain their previous strange feelings.
Even if it was a ti-related mutant power, which they had never seen or even heard of, they
couldn't help but speculate.
Syd paused for a mont, then casually replied, "I can teleport."
Space ability?
Logan and the others were sowhat surprised.
Just that?!
Although teleportation was also rare, they couldn't help but feel disappointed.
"Turns out we were overthinking it, haha..." The bearded Valentin laughed heartily.
Then, he patted Syd on the shoulder and praised, "But teleportation is still pretty aweso;
at least it's great for escaping."
Logan and the others agreed.
Most mutants' abilities were quite ordinary, even useless; having a practical superpower like
teleportation was already very lucky and quite good.
As they conversed, hundreds of ters away, at this mont, a group of people were also
talking.
"Sir, we've confird the target's location!"
A soldier hurried over, saluting before speaking. "Have you finally found him?"
Captain George, fully ard, showed joy in his eyes.
He murmured to himself, "Finally, I've found you!" Thinking about how five of his team mbers had died because of that kid not long ago, his
eyes uncontrollably flashed with hatred.
"You won't escape this ti!"
Looking into the distance, a confident smile appeared on his face.
This operation not only had a large number of police officers assisting, but he had also called
in many snipers; as soon as that kid showed his face, he would be shot on sight!
Not only snipers, but he had also approved seven Sentinel robots, that kid was definitely
dood!
His eyes flashed with a murderous intent, no longer caring about the base leader, Alejandro's orders to capture the vicious kid alive, deciding to kill the ruthless child!
As he anticipated the upcoming events, Captain Kenny next to him had a similar expression.
Thinking about the boy who had escaped from his base, he still felt sha and rage. "Despicable mutant, you can't escape this ti!"
Just as he had initially thought, it would only take a few days to bring that guy back!
"Oh? Have you found him?"
At this mont, a refreshing female voice ca from not far away.
A woman wearing a light, slim-fit dress, tall and slender, giving off a light and elegant vibe,
radiating a charming allure, carrying professional filming equipnt, walked over. "Irina, hello."
Kenny and his companion nodded at her.
Then, Kenny smiled and said, "We've already locked on the target's location, ready to make a
move."
"That's good." Carrying the filming equipnt, with a group of program staff behind her,
Irina smiled faintly.
A recent mutant video had gone viral online, attracting widespread attention. Her TV station
had also noticed and seized the business opportunity.
So, through connections, they approached Kenny, preparing to broadcast the capture of the mutant fugitive live, aiming to earn a surge in viewership.
At that mont, the program, through its pre-show hype, had already attracted a lot of
attention, with many people discussing it, sitting in front of their viewing devices, eagerly awaiting the start of the live broadcast.
Glancing at the number of followers, Irina's face showed a satisfied smile.
"Really looking forward to it!"
At that mont, many people online began discussing the situation.
