"Crack!"
The rumbling thunder resounded through the sky, and the lightning emitted by it completely illuminated the dark night sky. When Magneto sensed the crisis and looked up, the blue lightning was already close at hand.
The speed of thunder, when it completed the lock, it was destined that human reaction would be impossible to dodge.
Among Professor X's many students, except for the cheating Jean, Storm's potential is definitely the well-deserved first, even Scott is ranked behind her.
Controlling the weather has always been the power that only gods in mythology have. Strong winds, thunder, even frost blizzards, solar storms, all these exaggerated powers are within Storm's control, and the last guy who can control these abilities is called Zeus.
Storm, who has grown to her peak, is not much inferior to the professor in some aspects, and even far exceeds him. Even though she is still quite immature now, her shocking blow after accumulating power for a long time still caused Magneto a lot of trouble.
Lightning flashed in the night, and then a charred figure fell straight from the sky.
After falling for several breaths, Magneto, whose brain was in chaos, regained his consciousness and quickly stabilized his body.
Then the majestic magnetic force surged out of his body, allowing him to return to a normal suspended state, and the thick black ash on the surface of his body also fell, revealing the slightly reddish skin inside.
With the dual weakening of the defense field and magnetic enhancement, Magneto's body did not suffer much damage from this thunderbolt, but the brain, which was already painful, was hit again, becoming more and more drowsy, and his mental strength gradually showed signs of being on the verge of overdraft. The flashing lightning
in the sky disappeared, and he finally stabilized his body again, but the sound of breaking through the air came from the position in front of him, and a black shadow tore through the air wave and came fiercely.
The howling hurricane in front of him made Magneto's breathing stagnate, and the rolling heat waves that followed made his cheeks red. As his pupils shrank, a cold light rapidly enlarged in his vision.
But before he could successfully touch the opponent, the defensive force field surrounding the target's body surface at that moment successfully stopped the piercing cold light like an invisible swamp. The
magnetic force surged and entangled in a network, and soon forced the black shadow attacking from the front to solidify in the void.
It was a domineering halberd with flames all over its body, and behind it was a tall knight wearing scarlet heavy armor.
As early as the thunder in the sky resounded, Xu Yue, who had personally formulated the ambush plan, quickly flapped his wings and flew out, directly out of the red lotus that had not yet dissipated, and holding the Fang Tian Huaji, he fiercely pounced on Magneto, who was unstable in the sky.
However, Magneto's strength was stronger than he expected. Storm's long-accumulated thunder did not seem to cause too serious injuries, which also caused him to be frozen in place in the next second by Magneto who reacted in time. The
invisible magnetic force tore at Xu Yue's body, wearing away every bit of resistance in his body. The air seemed to have turned into sticky resin amber, and he was a pitiful mosquito tied inside the amber.
"It's an amazing flame, but you shouldn't use metal weapons against me..."
Magneto's tone was light as he swept his eyes across the Fang Tian Hua Ji with a coiled dragon in front of him and golden and red fire patterns lingering around it. But when his eyes shifted to Xu Yue's eyes, Magneto's words stopped abruptly.
Because there was no confusion and panic after being completely controlled in those eyes, only a hint of coldness and excitement after getting close successfully.
'Wait, excited? ! '
When their eyes met, Magneto suddenly felt a sense of unease, but before he could react to where this unease came from, he saw Xu Yue's Adam's apple on the opposite side move slightly.
Then, a towering demon god's phantom suddenly appeared behind the target, and his violent eyes looked down. Magneto, who was being watched by the demon god, felt a tremor in his heart for the first time. It was a fear that he had not experienced for a long time.
The next second, the terrifying war cry spread for hundreds of miles.
"Roar!!!"
In an instant, the sky cleared, the clouds in the sky dispersed, and the cold moonlight sprinkled from the circular wound in the sky.
At the same time, in the layers of translucent sound waves, a disheveled black shadow also flew backwards.
After being struck by thunder not long ago, Magneto was once again directly blown away by Xu Yue's war roar.
After suffering three consecutive heavy blows, even Magneto, who stood at the top of the mutants, was about to reach the limit of his spirit of manipulating magnetism.
After being forced to roll in the air for dozens of times due to losing balance, he managed to stabilize his body with bloodstains flowing from his five senses and seven orifices, but his defensive position outside his body had become shaky.
Xu Yue's Chiyou battle cry, which was in a state of boiling blood, was not so easy to bear. The fact that he did not faint on the spot was due to Magneto's extremely strong mental strength. The injuries he suffered this time were far worse than before.
He shook his extremely drowsy brain hard, and as soon as his vision in front of him became clear, he saw a flash of blue light above his head, and then Nightcrawler, who was holding Phantom Cat, suddenly appeared and quickly threw Phantom Cat in his hand towards the direction of the figure.
Phantom Cat, the main force of the third wave of attacks, rushed over excitedly, and Magneto, who had been hit hard many times, obviously had no intention of holding back. Countless small metal pieces flew out from the inside of his cloak that was fluttering behind him, surrounding his body, forming a light silver and delicate cloud.
Then, in front of Phantom Cat, no matter whether it was the silver mist that could crush the sentinel robots or the invisible defensive force field, they were all useless. She was like an untouchable ghost, and she pounced directly into the mist without any obstruction.
Then, in Magneto's surprised eyes, Phantom Cat did not attack him, but lightly pressed his palm on his dark red helmet.
Then the touched helmet also turned into a phantom at the same time, and under the lead of Phantom Cat, it crossed directly with him.
At the moment when the helmet left the body, Magneto suddenly realized something, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he quickly turned his head and shouted towards the island below:
"Jin! Help..."
But before he could finish his cry for help, a vast spiritual energy had already rushed directly into his brain, and in an instant, he completely controlled his body and mind.
"Charles, what on earth are you doing! Humans have already shown their fangs, and you are still prepared to passively seek peace and sit back and wait. This is a war! A war of survival for the race to the death!"
"Don't get excited, Eric, I just found a more suitable path, a path for the independence of the mutant race. Maybe you can listen to it before making a decision..."
... ...
Outside, when the helmet was successfully peeled off, the battle was declared over. The only one who could easily subdue the mutant bipolar was another bipolar.
Magneto, who was in full outbreak, had the power to flip the planet's magnetic field. This was a genuine old guy who could destroy the entire planet's ecosystem with his own strength. It was no exaggeration to say that if he lost his scruples, he could drag all the life on this planet to hell together.
So it was hard to imagine how terrifying the other party would burst out in the madness of dying. Anyway, Xu Yue had no intention of experiencing it.
All his arrangements against Magneto were just to strip off the special helmet that could shield the power of the mind. Without the protection of the helmet, no matter how strong the power was, it could not resist the invasion of the mind.
And the professor was the most powerful person in the world. Even the Phoenix was forcibly sealed by him for more than 20 years. It was only a matter of a moment to deal with Magneto. The
strategic goal was successfully completed. In the night sky, Xu Yue held Magneto, whose eyes were closed, and Phantom Cat, who looked excited, in both hands. With a flap of the flaming wings behind him, he soared into the sky towards the direction of the Yunhai Sun Chaser.
...…
In the sea below, the gorgeous fire lotus that shone in the sky had disappeared. Only the thick white fog was still spreading. In addition to the many charred corpses floating on the sea surface, there were also contractors who had successfully avoided the crisis by diving deep into the seabed and were gradually surfacing. They
glanced around at the horrible scene of corpses floating around and oil floating on the water. They did not speak, but turned around and swam quickly away from the island.
Even for these contractors who had experienced so much killing, the ending of the antidote battle was a bit too cruel. Thousands of people fought in a melee, but the number of people who survived in the end was less than one or two hundred, which was even more exaggerated than the death rate of the survival trial at the first level. Moreover, the way they died was even more miserable, especially the group of people who were boiled alive in boiling water at the end. Their shrill wails of dying seemed to still echo faintly in the white fog.
The survivors in the bay were
desperately trying to escape, while the island was still quiet. The spreading white fog almost enveloped the entire Devil Island. From a distance, it was a bit ethereal and mysterious. Once you get on the island, all you can see is the devastated scorched earth. There is almost no complete building on Devil Island now. The most that remains are dense metal fragments inserted diagonally on the charred land.
As for the surviving life, perhaps only the red-haired figure in the center of the battlefield.
Qin's attitude towards war and fighting was basically indifferent. The main consciousness Qin hated killing. She resisted the arbitrary deprivation of any life. The other Phoenix consciousness was extremely admiring of destruction and wantonness. She was the representative of natural animality and pure desire. The strong had the power to decide life and death, which was the essence of the survival of the fittest in nature. Moreover, it was so interesting to see everything disintegrate and destroy in one's hands.
Two completely different wills were merging with each other in the spiritual space. To be more precise, one consciousness was devouring the other, which led to Qin's, or Phoenix's, attitude of watching coldly throughout the whole process.
She watched the bloody fight between humans and mutants with interest, but never took the initiative to leave, just like an arrogant noble watching the cruel fight in the arena. Whether it was humans or mutants as fellow countrymen, they were just a pile of low-level species in the eyes of Phoenix.
As for the main consciousness Qin, she tried her best to suppress Phoenix's desire to kill and made it just a spectator who watched coldly.
So until the red lotus bloomed and the battlefield was desolate, Jean never took the initiative to attack. However, this special state did not last long. When a faint cry from Magneto came from the sky, the fragile balance of Jean was completely broken.
She suddenly raised her head and looked up. Her eyes were no longer silent, but burning with blazing anger.
Don't get me wrong, this change did not come from Magneto's call for help. In fact, Magneto was just a bigger ant to her. What really made her angry was the spiritual fluctuation hidden behind the call for help.
After being sealed in the dark for more than 20 years, this hatred was unforgettable. Even if the main consciousness Jean tried her best to suppress it, she could not stop the boiling revenge of Phoenix.
What's more, the professor's direct invasion and control of Magneto further stimulated Phoenix's remaining little reason. Now finding him and completely destroying this sanctimonious old bald man has become Phoenix's only thought.
"Charles!!"
The cold words were like a cold wind blowing through the land, blowing all the large pieces of fallen rocks and metal around into dust everywhere. Qin stared at a certain position in the sky and slowly floated up. It was there that she felt the mental fluctuations of Charles, so she needed to reach this place and destroy everything around it.
But just as her figure was suspended in the air, a series of dense footsteps sounded in the white fog at the edge of the island, and then a large number of fully armed human soldiers swarmed out of the thick fog, and soon the muzzles of plastic guns were all aimed at the red-haired woman who was floating in the air in front of everyone.
The captain who led the team in front had a solemn expression and was the first to say in a stern voice:
"Don't move, mutants, raise your hands, otherwise we will attack immediately!"
"Tell me what happened here!"
The stern shouts echoed in the foggy battlefield. Qin looked coldly at the many muzzles of guns pointed at her, and did not intend to pay attention to the provocation of these ants who overestimated their own abilities.
But the next second, the harsh sound of guns firing rang out immediately.
"Attack!!"
