[Sponsored] Chapter 112: Goodbye, Magneto

[This Chapter Is Sponsored by Moneymancer! Everyone, please thank him in the comment!]

Magneto himself did not expect to encounter a fellow mutant with such potential.

As per the usual scenario, if someone was unwilling to come along, he would forcibly take them, brainwash them, and be done with it. However, he didn't anticipate that Bella, this young girl, would completely break the pattern and immediately opt for a grand move.

This grand move made even Magneto shudder.

He had always been confident in his abilities, but now, faced with such a terrifying scene, he wasn't sure if he could withstand it.

Magneto wondered what secret the girl held. Mutant abilities were diverse, encompassing space and even time, but he had never seen such a power.

If the girl was indeed a mutant, she would not be just an Alpha, but an Omega, the highest level of mutants.

However, Magneto could not confirm if this power belonged to the girl herself.

It seemed more like she was borrowing someone else's power.

If so, who could that person be?

A name immediately flashed in Magneto's mind: John Shaw, the person Emma made a deal with to take away.

Emma's words echoed in his ears.

"He might have other means, Erik, don't underestimate him."

This confirmed that the man named John Shaw was not simple, which explained why Emma was willing to pay a precious price to make a deal with him instead of seeking him out herself.

"That's just like you, Emma."

Magneto raised his head, releasing his power to the maximum. The invisible magnetic field disrupted the surrounding space, like a collapsing black hole, continuously absorbing the released energy. Magneto now considered whether to endure this move or to escape directly.

He had little confidence in withstanding it, as the invisible threat felt like a tide ready to drown him.

Magneto never doubted his premonitions. He knew that enduring this would be very risky. With the help of a tank like Juggernaut, the probability might be higher, but he was confident in escaping.

Golden halos reflected in his eyes, growing more intense.

Time did not allow Magneto to continue pondering.

What seemed like a long time of thinking was actually very short. He used magnetism to enhance his body, surpassing human limits, and reduced his reaction time to one-fifteenth of a normal human.

As Magneto frowned, making a significant decision in his heart.

The sky, time, and space seemed to be frozen by a vast, invisible divine power at that moment.

Everything stopped instantly: the wind, the flickering flames on the ground, the climbing vampires, Mystique and Sabretooth hiding beside Magneto—all were frozen in place.

Only Magneto and Juggernaut, though temporarily immobilized, still had functioning minds.

Juggernaut, not the brightest, released his terrifying power in anger, trying to break free from the invisible divine power. His immense strength cracked the ground beneath his feet, his bulging muscles looking menacing.

Magneto's eyes flickered, his heart tumultuous, and he unhesitatingly released all his power to manipulate magnetism, altering the surrounding force field to isolate the suppressive force and break free.

It worked, but the progress was very slow. Magneto felt like he was fighting an impossible god.

Like an ordinary person facing a storm, all he felt was despair.

Who could it be? Why did they have such power?

Sweat beaded on Magneto's forehead, disbelief filling his heart. Since becoming Magneto, he had always believed he was one of the strongest in the world, with only Charles and the White Queen being his equals.

But both Charles and Emma had their weaknesses.

If he were ruthless, Magneto believed he could kill Charles and the White Queen.

In a way, Magneto saw himself as the strongest mutant, a god.

But now, his pride and confidence were shattered.

"Is everyone here to find me?"

A calm voice echoed in everyone's ears, yet it felt as thunderous as it was tranquil, causing the frozen scene to resume.

A figure embraced Bella's slender waist, looking down at everyone like a god gazing at mortals.

John Shaw.

When he appeared, his name instantly rang in everyone's mind.

However, when Edward and Jacob saw Bella happily nestling in Bi Xiao's arms, their expressions were complicated—they were both losers.

Even if they wanted to protect her silently, they couldn't.

Behind them, Bi Xiao took control of the treasure's power without activating it. His gaze swept over James and the vampire army, who were trembling in fear, their faces filled with terror.

A single cold glance almost made their hearts burst.

"Last time you survived because of Him, hiding like a rat in a ditch, without the courage to face me?"

"Kaecilius, this is not the you I knew."

Bi Xiao addressed James, leaving everyone, including Magneto, puzzled. But unexpectedly, James seemed to change, clapping his hands and standing up, looking up at Bi Xiao.

His face turned sinister.

"Is this your trap?"

The hoarse voice was identical to the former Kaecilius. It was evident that James was being controlled by Kaecilius or had been turned into a puppet by his dark energy.

"Hmm, strange, I can't track your location. It seems Dormammu has been generous, giving you many good things."

Bi Xiao's pupils, rendered golden, stared at "James," trying to track Kaecilius' true presence but failed. The opponent had clearly used dark magic to conceal himself, preventing tracking.

Bi Xiao was not surprised, as although he had combat power comparable to the top tier of Sky Father level and was a master of magic, the multiverse had many entities stronger than him.

Especially Dormammu, a dark lord at the single-body level, creating a spell to hide from him was not difficult.

"The great master has noticed you, Shaw. I will witness your death. Never relax, for the curse will always accompany you. Those around you will die because of your negligence, and you will regret everything you have done."

"James" spoke calmly, but his words were chilling.

Others frowned, hearing the exchange revealing unimaginable information. A mysterious person controlling James, who was Kaecilius? Who was the great master he spoke of?

Why did they bear such enmity towards John Shaw, seemingly in an unending feud?

Edward, the Cullen family, and Jacob looked at Bi Xiao, the source of everything. What was his identity?

Facing their varied gazes, Bi Xiao did not say more or even make a move.

They saw "James" and the vampire army around Victoria suddenly stiffen and then burned into ashes by an invisible force.

Such a nonchalant erasure of over twenty vampire lives sent a chill down everyone's spine.

Especially the Cullen family and the wolves Jacob brought, they shrank, hoping not to be noticed, not wanting James' fate.

Fortunately, Bi Xiao shifted his gaze to Magneto and the others, stopping momentarily on Juggernaut before finally focusing on Magneto.

"Emma?"

He uttered Emma's name, to which Magneto was unsurprised and nodded, "She said this was her game agreement with you."

"That was a game I almost forgot. I didn't expect to interact with her again."

Back then, Bi Xiao did not take the game seriously. Emma was never his target; she hid from him, and he was too lazy to find her, almost forgetting the blonde beauty. But now, she sent Magneto to him.

Reaching his current level, few things could anger Bi Xiao.

To be honest, today's events were just a farce in his eyes, coincidentally arranged together. Though these people targeted Bella, he knew that on Earth, no one could harm Bella without bypassing him.

Anyone who came would die, including Magneto.

If he hadn't controlled the treasure's activation, everyone except Juggernaut would have perished.

"You shouldn't have joined this game."

"Goodbye, Magneto."

Bi Xiao snapped his fingers, the faint sound like delicate glass shattering. The treasure behind him activated, golden light blooming brilliantly, countless rays falling like meteors, dazzling and beautiful.

But also a symbol of death.

Magneto's pupils contracted, unleashing all his power, altering the surrounding magnetic field. In the face of death, he opened a wormhole, intending to escape with Mystique, Sabretooth, and Juggernaut.

But as soon as the wormhole opened, the beams fell.

No matter how fast his power, it couldn't outpace light.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the desperate gazes of Magneto, Mystique, and Sabretooth, the terrifying energy exploded on the surface, the devastating force ravaging everywhere, annihilating all life. The town shook wildly, the ground cracked, and the brilliant light turned night into day.

In an instant, the entire town of Forks was utterly destroyed.

The affected Cullen family and Jacob's wolf pack were also in despair. No one expected the seemingly cheerful Asian boy to become a grim reaper, mercilessly destroying everything, including the town of over three thousand people, with many friends, and Bella's father, Charlie.

Charlie?

Thinking of Bella's father, Esme, a beautiful mature woman, suddenly snapped out of her shock and fear. Right, that boy loved Bella. How could he cold-bloodedly kill the entire town, including Bella's father?

Not just Esme, initially heartbroken thinking his father and friends were dead, Jacob also realized something was wrong.

"What is going on?"

Everyone stood dumbfounded, watching the golden torrent sweep the town, turning it to scorched earth, full of questions.

Looking up at the sky, Bella, held by Bi Xiao, was shocked. She was not stunned by Bi Xiao's ruthlessness but by his world-destroying power.

Bella did not mourn because, knowing basic magic, she remembered an advanced magic above basic spells called Mirror Dimension magic.
