Chapter 386 Phoenix

"Good, the target was shot down. Storm is really brave for daring to float low in the air and act as a target on the battlefield!"

  "Not surprising. People who come out of the academy are always naive. Professor X protects them too well."

  "Quick! Keep focusing fire. If you are lucky enough to kill Storm, you will get at least a dark purple treasure chest."

  "Keep going. Alpha-level mutants are not so easy to deal with. We can't kill her in a short time. Storm will be dealt with by other high-level NPCs after she lands. Let's focus on suppressing Wolverine and Colossus first. These two are about to break through the battle formation."

  "Damn, where's Tank? Go up and stop these two guys. Wolverine is almost rushing to the auxiliary team area!"

  ...

  In all parts of the battlefield, chaotic discussions and commands continued to sound one by one from the scattered groups of contractors.

  With the addition of more than a dozen X-Men, the momentum of the entire battlefield was quickly pushed to a climax.

  Humans and mutants, the Brotherhood and the X-Men, the contractors and the characters, and even the contractors themselves, are all gradually transformed into a pot of boiling soup with blood splashing in the chaotic entanglement.

  But no matter how the situation changes, the top mutants who are the high-end combat power on the battlefield are always the center of the vortex. Whether it is the powerful force that can influence the situation of the battle or the considerable rewards that can be obtained after killing, they are constantly attracting the attention of all beings in the field.

  After jointly shooting down the most high-profile Storm in the sky, the human side's overwhelming counterattack was finally temporarily interrupted.

  In addition to Storm who fell on the battlefield, Logan, Colossus, Iceman, Nightcrawler and other X-Men members were also targeted to varying degrees.

  Among them, the lineup to encircle Wolverine Logan is the most massive. After all, among all the X-Men, he is the one who performs the most like a fish in water on the battlefield, and he is also the most murderous.

  It is no exaggeration to say that if Logan is given enough time, he alone can kill everyone in the Brotherhood except Magneto and Jean.

  Facing a guy with deadly claws and a basically indestructible body, if he is not restrained in time, the damage he can cause is definitely beyond imagination, at least the blow to morale can be said to be fatal.

  Therefore, the number of contractors surrounding Logan is completely the largest in the whole field, and the bloodiness is also the highest among all.

  At the top of the broken bridge at the edge of the battlefield, the Golden Gate Bridge, which was full of many Brotherhood leaders not long ago, is now left alone with Jean.

  The rest of the members joined the battlefield one after another as early as the appearance of the X-Men. Some of them took advantage of the cover of the war to quickly rush to the Worthington Laboratory behind the battlefield to look for targets, while others joined the encirclement and suppression of various X-Men.

  As for Jean, the bloody battlefield at the moment made her gradually excited, but the pull of another consciousness in her brain made her stay rigidly in place, and she could only watch the cruel killing that continued in front of her with cold eyes.

  After looking around the battlefield, Jean's eyes finally stopped at Wolverine Logan, who was being surrounded and killed by everyone.

  As his silver-white claws swung, he saw limbs flying around and blood rolling. In just a few minutes, at least a dozen blockers were torn to pieces by him. The

  black and yellow uniform of the war police had been completely dyed dark red after the blood dried, and it was covered with various wounds of various sizes. During the whole process of the siege, many guys died under Logan's claws, and he himself was also seriously injured. The metal skull was exposed at least ten times, his eyeballs were gouged out and shattered seven times, and his heart was taken out of his chest three times... In addition to these

  serious injuries that were fatal, the rest of the injuries were countless. There were not many others. Just the flesh and blood cut from his body could be piled together to completely reassemble two or three brand new Logans. What

  was desperate was that no matter how serious the injuries were, his missing flesh and blood and organs would grow and heal again in a breath.

  Therefore, after a long and fierce battle, even though the surroundings were already littered with corpses and blood, Logan, who was surrounded and killed in the center, was still in a strong aura and had a tendency to become more and more courageous. This perfectly illustrates what it means that a mere fatal injury has no effect on the battle.

  In fact, as long as Logan's adamantium skeleton is not destroyed, his extreme self-healing ability can ensure that he will continue to fight until his physical strength is exhausted. Conventional control skills will not play a big role in the face of his tough will tempered by nearly two hundred years of fighting.

  The sticky smell of blood rushed into the nose, stimulating Qin, who was watching the battle at the top of the broken bridge, to begin to have various abnormalities. The air around her became twisted and squirming, and her eyes slowly stained with a faint blood color. It seemed that in the next second, the violent Phoenix power in her body would break through the shackles of reason and come to the world, announcing its existence to the whole world.

  But every time it was about to explode, a strong emotional fluctuation from the depths of the spiritual space would emerge, and forcibly calm down the gradually violent Phoenix power.

  But this can only delay it temporarily. Every time the tide recedes, it accumulates more powerful power for the next outbreak.

  Staring at the blood-soaked strong figure in the center of her vision, Qin's eyes flickered, and her moist tongue couldn't help but stick out and lick her slightly dry scarlet lips. As the two consciousnesses merged in her mind, her suppressed emotions about Logan began to become more and more intense.

  For Phoenix, who advocates absolute freedom, she undoubtedly loves the wild and uninhibited Logan more than the relatively restrained and indifferent Scott, and this also means that the part of Qin's consciousness is being gradually swallowed up by another personality.   

  Suddenly, a resounding roar in the distance caught Qin's eyes on Logan's fight. He looked up and saw that the outer wall of the Worthington Laboratory at the end of the battlefield suddenly exploded into a cloud of dust, and a somewhat unfamiliar silver figure jumped down from the torn dust.

  ...

  On the other side, You Lin's combat boots stained with blood fell to the ground. After breaking several high walls one after another, Xu Yue finally opened up the shortest route inside the laboratory and went straight to the battlefield outside.

  Inhale~

  A long breath sounded, and this familiar battlefield atmosphere made Xu Yue unconsciously take a deep breath. The thick smoke and bloody smell mixed with the boiling and surging shouts and killings around him poured into his ears and nose at the same time, making his pupils, which were already blood-colored, become more and more dense, so sticky that it seemed to really drip blood and tears. The

  long halberd in his hand seemed to sense the rising evil spirit around him, and then it let out a series of humming and whistling.

  After a quick glance at the situation in front of him, just as he was about to leap out to the bloodiest front line of the battlefield, Xu Yue's movements suddenly paused. He felt an extremely dangerous gaze coming at him.

  Just the sight of him caused the beast instinct in his body to give a crazy warning. His blood-red pupils shrank slightly, and the corners of his mouth quietly opened an arc. Then he raised his eyes and looked in the direction of his gaze. As expected

  , it was Qin, or Phoenix, who was spying on him.

  Under the dim light, a figure in dark red clothes was standing on the top of the broken bridge. Under the flowing red hair were a pair of eyes that were intertwined with passion and indifference. When their eyes met, Xu Yue seemed to see a terrifying fire phoenix that could reach the sky and the earth slowly spreading its wings behind this figure.

  Wherever the wings swept, the elements retreated, and everything was annihilated. Even the burning fire in his dantian began to frantically agitate, and waves of fanatical and eager emotions rose in his mind.

  I don't know how long it took, when Xu Yue came to his senses again, Qin on the opposite side had already retracted her gaze, and he still stayed where he was without moving at all.

  "This is the Phoenix..."

  Xu Yue murmured, quickly lowering his eyelids to cover his greed that was difficult to restrain for a while. At this moment, a group photo suddenly passed by not far to his right, and fell heavily to the ground and exploded into a large cloud of dust.

  Soon the dust dispersed, revealing a white-haired figure in a miserable state inside.

  "Orolo?!"

  In the pit on the surface of the ground was a broken black cloak, and on the cloak lay Storm, who was covered in blood. Under the hole in her uniform that was obviously torn by a sharp weapon was wheat-colored smooth skin, and irregular wounds on her skin that were constantly opening and closing like a child's lips.

  And every time with the opening and closing of breathing, a large amount of blood would be pumped out of the wound, and there was no sign of healing for a long time.

  Storm is not like Logan. Although she is very capable of manipulating wind and thunder, her relatively weak body is her biggest weakness. Her high-profile appearance above everyone on the battlefield caused her to suffer a small loss. After landing on the surface, she was surrounded and killed by many strong men. The fact that

  she can hold on until now is a representative of her strength. However, with the increasing weakness caused by excessive blood loss, she feels more and more powerless and shows a declining trend in the battle.

  Hearing Xu Yue's call, Storm hurriedly struggled to get up from the ground. Her slightly pale lips moved and she said,

  "Did you get it done in the laboratory?"

  "Well, but... you seem to have encountered some troubles here."

  The wind whistled in front of Xu Yue, and a female mutant with the same killing Matt style as Arc Light and others suddenly appeared in the wind, with a long afterimage left in the air after high-speed movement behind her.

  The Night Walker stopped walking. She first looked at the cracked surface of the Worthington Laboratory and the huge pit on the outer wall, and finally turned her gaze to Xu Yue who was standing in front of her with a halberd.

  Through her mutant ability to detect talents, she could sense that the man in front of her was quite dangerous, but the Arc Light and others who had entered the laboratory before were very important to her, so she couldn't just ignore them.

  A trace of fear flashed in her eyes, and she frowned and said:

  "You came out of the laboratory? Did you meet any members of our fraternity on the way?"
