"What does Mr. Raymond mean?" John was a little surprised.

"Literally," Raymond said calmly, "If you encounter this situation again, do you think you novices can protect her? Or, if any of them encounters troubles like today, what can your organization help?"

"To be honest, I can't see any need for her to get along with you. A group of rookies who are unable to protect themselves will not solve any problems even if they are grouped together..."

"Brother! How could you speak like this?" Clarice was a little anxious.

"Shut up, I haven't settled your debt with you yet!" Raymond glared at her.

When Clarice heard Raymond talk about her own accounts, she was immediately depressed.

However, Clarice was depressed, but Lorna couldn't sit still. She said unconvincedly: "This time it was that guy who was playing tricks, and Clarie's ability was suddenly unstable, so we would be so passive. If we were more vigilant, this would never happen."

"You think so too?" Raymond looked at Clarice.

Clarice did not answer.

But from her expression, Raymond could tell that she should think so too.

Raymond shook his head and asked, "Hellfire Club, have you heard of this name?"

When Clarice and Lorna heard this name, they looked confused. It was obviously the first time they heard about this name. Sonia frowned slightly, as if she was recalling something.

Only John's expression suddenly changed.

"It seems you know." Raymond looked at him.

"I once heard an older mutant mention that it is said to be the oldest mutant organization that exists today, much earlier than the Mutant Brotherhood and the X-Men..." John said.

"So it's that organization!"

Sonia seemed to remember something, and then she reacted, "Mr. Raymond, are you saying that those people just now from Hellfire Club?"

"No," Raymond nodded slightly.

Hearing Raymond's confirmation, John's heart sank suddenly!

Unlike Lorna, although Lorna has been awakened for a long time, it was not until she joined the mutant underground organization that she entered this circle for the first time, and she didn't know much about mutant things.

But John came into contact with this circle much earlier than she did, knowing how terrible it is, like Hellfire Club, which is recognized as the most mysterious and oldest mutant organization.

The mutant underground organizations he led may not even be ranked among the many mutant organizations.

How big is the difference between the two, how could he not count?

However, John knew that the situation was not good, but Lorna, who was not clear about the background of Hellfire Club, was still dissatisfied. "So what if it exists for a long time? I don't think that guy is very powerful, that is, the turtle shell is just a little harder. If I don't believe him, he will be invincible!"

"Of course he is not invincible, and no ability can be without flaws." Raymond said.

"That's it, what's there to be afraid of?" Lorna saw Raymond agreeing with her, and she was more confident.

"Little girl, you don't think that the one who was the boss of Hellfire Club just now is, right?" Raymond chuckled and shook his head.

"Isn't it?" Lorna was stunned.

"Theoretically, there should be sixteen core members of Hellfire Club. That guy just now was just one of them, and he was still a relatively weak one..." Raymond told the truth.

There is indeed nothing wrong with this statement.

Since Hellfire Club is called chess pieces, it is naturally sorted according to the rules of chess. Carl, the "Black Knight", is probably only at the end among the core members of Hellfire Club.

"How is this possible?!" Lorna was shocked by this statement.

Although she was very unhappy with the guy just now, she had to admit that the other party's ability was indeed very powerful, even if she was alone in confronting her and John, she could be at ease.

You know, she and John are already the strongest combat power in the mutant underground organization. Although there are some of the other members with a little combat power, they are far from comparable to the two of them.

Therefore, to put it another way, that guy just now was able to choose the underground organization of mutants by himself.

However, such a powerful mutant is just one of the sixteen core members of the Hellfire Club, and he is also the weakest one among them?

Then how powerful are the other core members?

If this is true, how terrible would this organization with so many powerful mutants be?

This kind of thing beyond imagination made Lorna feel a little unreal.

But when she looked at John, she found that John did not refute Raymond, but instead fell into silence with a heavy face.

Seeing John's reaction, Lorna believed that what Raymond said might be true.

What she didn't know was that John was actually not sure if what Raymond said was 100% true, because he didn't know that Hellfire Club had sixteen core members or something like that.

But when Raymond said this, he was not surprised at all.

Because only such a powerful organization can explain why it has a history of hundreds of years.

The history of mutants is a history of humiliation, which is an indisputable fact.

Even the two giants today can only hide from each other or be vain and have to be a human being with their tails.

A mutant organization cannot last for hundreds of years without its strong enough strength. It has been wiped out many times.

However, John was not an irresponsible person.

He would not dare to fight against him just because he knew that the other party was a giant like Hellfire Club. Even if Carl had reported himself to his family before, he would not have given up on his companions.

But at this time, facing the doubts of Raymond, his family, he could not deceive himself.

"I admit that my strength is really nothing in the face of Hellfire Club... But I will never give up Clarice's, because she is my companion!" John said in a deep voice.

"So too!" Lorna, who came back from the shock, also echoed.

Although Sonia didn't say anything, she also looked determined!

Seeing a few people looking serious, Raymond really wanted to say that the Hellfire Club is just here to recruit people, not to kill people. What are you doing when you look at death?

But it seems a bit too slap in the face at this time, so don't be so cruel...

Thinking of this, he still looked at Clarice with a stern face and asked, "Are you sure you want to continue messing with them? This is the last time I asked you this question, you'll talk about it after you have thought about it!"

Clarice struggled, but finally nodded and said, "I have never made any important decisions since I was a child. Please let me be willful once this time, brother, please!"

"I hope you won't regret it." Raymond glanced at her deeply.

Then he stopped saying anything and turned around and walked back into the car.

After getting in the car, he pressed the glass and exposed a crack, looking at her and said, "Come back early tonight, don't play too late. In addition... don't worry about Hellfire Club, have fun."

Before he finished speaking, the car started and went away in an instant—
