Chapter 89 - Undercurrents Surge

With the epic-tier battle axe generously gifted by Han Shaoqing, Handsome Guy's combat prowess soared.

While he might still fall far short of the Hulk's might, he could now take down any other monster on Skull Island with a single, decisive axe blow.

"ROAR!"

In the wilderness, Handsome Guy stood tall, battle axe in one hand, chest pounding with the other, exuding an aura of invincibility.

After a mighty roar, he swung the axe, felling several towering trees in a single strike. He stripped the branches, leaving the sturdy trunks, and dragged the massive logs to the X-Men's new base, providing them with high-quality timber.

He had become a glorious working beast.

Handsome Guy now got along quite well with the mutants.

Especially with Charles, who possessed Telepathy. Charles often chatted with Handsome Guy, making him the second person Handsome Guy trusted most among the group.

This was the advantage of having mastered diplomacy!

The base was now largely complete. The remaining modern supplies, daily necessities, and materials were teleported from the city by Red Devil and Raven.

Yesterday, Raven and Alex ventured out to bring Alex's family to Skull Island.

Mutants, due to their unique identities or unfortunate circumstances, are often solitary figures.

Take Mystique, for example, who was forced to separate from her parents at a young age.

Darwin and Salvador were abandoned by their parents. Only Banshee Sean, Beast Hank, and Ravage Alex live with their families.

Sean is somewhat reclusive, and his relationship with his family is strained. Since his parents are ordinary humans, he chose not to come to Skull Island.

Hank, now physically transformed, dares not return home to face his parents.

Alex is different. Both his younger brothers carry the X-Gene, and while it hasn't awakened yet, they are undoubtedly mutants.

Education must start from childhood!

Bringing them to Skull Island early would also help them master their abilities more quickly.

In fact, beyond mutants, Han Shaoqing and Charles had also discussed adopting some orphaned children.

This would not only provide a good life and environment for disadvantaged children but also increase the island's population.

Moreover, allowing mutant and normal children to grow up together would foster harmony between the two groups.

Of course, these were all future plans. At the very least, they would have to wait until Erik completed the Cerebro before they could be effectively implemented.

Once Cerebro was completed, Charles could use his powerful Telepathy to connect with most of the globe, making it incredibly convenient to search for Mutants in the wild or gather intelligence.

Three days flew by, and through everyone's concerted efforts, all the base's facilities and living quarters were fully established.

The White Queen's financial resources remained substantial.

After Sebastian Shaw's death, Erik took over as the Black King. Though this brought some negative consequences, the Hellfire Club's scale remained the same, if not even greater.

Moreover, if necessary, Erik could raise gold and various rare metals from the earth.

If Erik wanted to, he could locate mineral veins in minutes. Making money would be effortless.

Perhaps this was one reason Mutants were so hated!

After all, things ordinary people could only dream of were readily available to Mutants. How could they not be envied and resented?

With wealth came simplicity.

Anything available in the outside world could be acquired for Skull Island.

In essence, Skull Island had everything the outside world did, and more.

If we're talking about what Skull Island lacks from Earth, it's the technology of Atlantis and the Vibranium of Wakanda, aside from the supernatural items.

Atlantis will inevitably fall into Han Shaoqing's hands sooner or later.

As for Vibranium, keeping it locked away in Wakanda for so many years is nothing short of a criminal waste.

To be fair, Han Shaoqing doesn't believe Wakanda deserves to possess Vibranium.

From the perspective of humanity as a whole, Wakanda is not only selfish and self-serving but also utterly foolish.

With the best resources on Earth at their disposal, most of their warriors still fight with cold weapons. If not for some high-tech support, Han Shaoqing would suspect they've been hiding during humanity's evolution.

Once he's finished with his current affairs, Han Shaoqing plans to head to Wakanda to reclaim the Vibranium.

Call it forceful acquisition or rational resource utilization—it doesn't matter.

Vibranium will be his, and not even Jesus can stop him!

For now, however, improving Skull Island's facilities is the priority. The Vibranium won't run away.

"I'm back!"

Artoria returned from a hunt, clad in military armor.

She wore her knight's armor and rode a Holy Tiger King twenty meters long—the same massive tiger she had spent time with in the Inner Earth with Han Shaoqing.

During a recent lull in his schedule, Han Shaoqing teleported to the Inner Earth, found the creature, and brought it back to Skull Island.

This island was relatively safe and had an abundance of food.

Moreover, Skull Island was home to Holy Tigers, including a mature male Holy Tiger King. The two large tigers made a perfect pair, and might even produce a litter of cubs next year.

"You've worked hard."

Han Shaoqing stepped closer and saw that the prey Artoria had brought back was a Tyrannosaurus Rex. It was enough to feed the entire base for days.

There was no fear of waste, thanks to the Iwi Tribe and Handsome Guy.

Recently, Han Shaoqing and his companions had received much care from the Iwi Tribe, so sending them food in return was only natural.

Handsome Guy was an omnivore, eating both meat and vegetables without hesitation. While a T-Rex didn't hold as much energy as a nuclear bomb, it was still a good meal for him.

What's more, Handsome Guy particularly loved T-Rex tongues. Fortunately, he knew restraint, or T-Rexes would have long since vanished from Skull Island!

This was Han Shaoqing's first time tasting Tyrannosaurus Rex meat.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex meat turned out to be less delicious than expected. Only the tail and tongue were tender; the rest was tough and chewy, best suited for braising.

Fortunately, the White Queen provided plenty of fine wine and high-end ingredients.

Red wine with dragon meat—just another simple, unpretentious day!

Skull Island flourished, changing with each passing day.

Meanwhile, the outside world was turbulent and unstable.

Many began secretly researching and monitoring Mutants and Titans.

The Monarch, a research organization, secured significant funding, expanded its team, and began global efforts to track Titans.

The US and the Soviet Union increased their focus on Mutants while attempting to create super-soldiers.

The previously halted Super Soldier Serum was revived, and weapons development intensified.

Beneath the surface of peace, undercurrents churned.

This was an era where stagnation meant decline—those who fell behind were destined to be trampled!

Meanwhile, due to the butterfly effect Han Shaoqing had set in motion, the branching of the timeline had nearly reached its peak.
