.....

The Black soldier flew out like a cannonball, leaving the group of soldiers who had barged into Roger's room completely stunned.

Then, they realized that this guy was also one of them. Without hesitation, the captain gave the order:

"Open fire!!!"

But before the others could pull the trigger, Roger's figure moved like a specter, appearing right in front of the captain. Grabbing the captain's collar, he lightly pushed upward, causing the captain's body to crash into the ceiling. He then fell to the ground like a sack of potatoes, instantly losing consciousness.

Roger then swiftly moved among the remaining soldiers, using his immense strength and lightning speed, throwing each of them out through the window with one hand.

Tatatatata!

Just as Roger finished dealing with the enemies inside the room, a sudden barrage of bullets rained down on him.

Looking back, he saw the Black soldier he had embedded into the wooden wall earlier now crawling out, covered in blood, and unleashing a frenzied hail of bullets at Roger.

"Die! Aaaah!!!"

The soldier screamed like a madman, as if the shouting could give him courage. He kept pulling the trigger until the gun was empty.

However, when he saw that Roger was completely unharmed, the soldier's eyes became vacant, his gaze filled with despair as he continued to mechanically pull the trigger, producing only clicking sounds.

Empty bullet casings scattered on the ground as Roger, expressionless, turned back to look at the Black soldier.

The soldier instinctively took a step back, fumbling to grab a spare magazine, trying to reload and continue the attack. But before he could replace the magazine, he noticed that the gun in his hands suddenly lifted into the air on its own, disassembling into a pile of parts right before his eyes!

"What the..."

He was about to curse when the magazine in his hand suddenly smacked him hard on the head.

Thud!

The blow was not light, and the soldier collapsed unconscious, the rest of his curses unspoken.

Witnessing this, Roger turned his head to see Jean Grey, who had just been woken up by the sound of gunfire. She looked at Roger with confusion and asked:

"What's going on? Who... who are these people?"

"It's a long story. To put it simply, I've gotten myself into some trouble."

Roger answered Jean Grey, then turned back to the room, opened the cabinet, and revealed a little girl hiding inside.

The girl, clinging to a pillow in the cabinet, trembled, her eyes filled with fear and confusion as she looked at the two of them.

Roger gestured towards the girl and said:

"These guys are after her. Looks like someone's hunting mutants... We should talk somewhere else."

Roger intended to explain things to Jean Grey, but he heard footsteps approaching and decided to find a different place to continue their conversation.

Late at night, there were no nearby hotels that didn't require ID verification. After searching for a while, Roger finally settled for a still-open KFC.
