Erik’s Fury

Erik was laid out on an examination table, bound by multiple chains.

They were not wrapped around his body. Instead, they pierced straight through it, emerged from the other side, and were fastened together.

The holes had been drilled by several Magnetic Field Warriors using sharp Adamantium drills. The flesh left over from the drilling process happened to be just what Professor Lambert needed for his experiments.

This laboratory had been specially built for him, and every material in it had been demagnetized. However, he was currently using Magnetic Field Rotation, which would have allowed him to tear everything apart with ease—if he had any hands.

His missing limbs were currently his greatest weakness.

Two Magnetic Field Warriors were constantly stationed beside him to prevent him from escaping after recovering. They worked in three shifts a day, without interruption for twenty-four hours.

These two Magnetic Field Warriors were also responsible for using their magnetic powers to interfere with his magnetic control, preventing him from yanking apart the chains around his body and injuring the vulnerable researchers.

The scientists had yet to discover a way to abolish Erik’s ability to resist. After all, Erik was both a magnetic powerhouse and Magneto.

High-molecular-weight demagnetized materials could restrain Magneto, but they were completely useless against Magnetic Field Warriors.

Adamantium might be able to restrain a limbless Erik, but Magneto completely countered it.

Thus, they had no choice but to use Magnetic Field Warriors to restrain him manually, suppressing Erik at all times. Unless someone could create a martial art similar to the Ultimate Heart Lock, a Magnetic Field Rotation martial artist could not have his power crippled.

But the Marvel world’s martial arts standards were far too low. Even someone like Iron Fist was, at best, at the Current Drive Realm. Creating a martial art of that level was absolutely not something that could be done in a short time.

Although Magneto had been suppressed all this time, his magnetic power still existed. Through magnetic sensing, he heard every single scream of agony coming from the Mutants being subjected to live experiments in the surrounding laboratories.

"Kill me… Please, kill me…"

"Don’t come any closer…"

"I’ll do anything you want. Just stop torturing me…"

"I’ll behave. I’ll do any experiment you want, just stop electrocuting me…"

Although Erik could not see the terrible scenes in person, his highly developed brain allowed him to understand the tragic fate of his fellow Mutants perfectly.

Moreover, he had already reached the Tenth Heaven of Magnetic Field Rotation and could read other people’s thoughts, just like his old friend Professor X.

By entering the minds of the people who entered the laboratory, he could see for himself how those researchers slaughtered and dissected his Mutant brethren.

"Bastards!"

"You pack of beasts!"

"I’ll kill every one of you!"

Erik’s eyes bulged with rage as he desperately urged the magnetic power within his body. Ignoring the wounds that had split open and begun bleeding, he tried to break free from the Magnetic Field Warriors’ suppression, kill every bastard before him, and rescue his fellow Mutants who had suffered so much torment.

As his fury grew, the magnetic power within his body spun faster and faster, rapidly rising.

Eleventh Heaven!

Twelfth Heaven!

Thirteenth Heaven!

"Damn it, we can’t hold him down anymore! Get more people over here!" the Magnetic Field Warriors on-site shouted in panic.

In moments, all the Magnetic Field Warriors came running over and joined forces to suppress Erik.

They knew very well that once Erik broke through their blockade, suppressing him again would be difficult.

At this critical moment, they could no longer care whether the sample lived or died. They poured all their strength into striking the wounds on Erik’s limbs again.

The wounds that had just begun to heal split open once more under the heavy blows. Under the pressure in his arteries, blood sprayed out, staining every wall in the laboratory red.

Erik’s momentum faltered at once. Seeing that their method was effective, the other warriors immediately struck his wounds even harder.

"Bastards! You all deserve to die!"

Erik let out a furious roar. His momentum suddenly leaped and surged, blasting several Magnetic Field Warriors beside him away.

Magnetic Field Rotation, Twenty Heavens!

After the Magnetic Field Warriors’ suppression disappeared, Erik’s body swayed slightly. The Adamantium chains and high-molecular-material ropes binding him snapped apart in unison.

Magneto Erik Lehnsherr had broken free!

Just as Erik escaped his restraints and prepared to go on a killing spree, someone suddenly flashed in through the door. With a single stretch of his hand, he activated his magnetic ability and pressed Erik back down.

Erik flew into a rage and once again stirred up his magnetic power, but the other man’s interference disrupted it. He failed to rise into the air and instead vomited blood violently because he had exerted himself too forcefully.

Although a Twenty Heavens Magnetic Field Warrior’s recovery ability was ridiculously powerful, it was not enough to restore him instantly. Erik had lost too much blood and immediately felt his heart race and his breathing grow ragged. He could no longer bring out even half his strength.

He hurriedly calmed his mind and controlled his muscles to seal the wounds first, beginning emergency treatment. But his opponent was not giving him time to heal.

The newly arrived Magnetic Field Warrior drove a heavy punch into one of his wounds, causing it to burst open again and continue draining his blood.

Erik clenched his teeth and glared at the Magnetic Field Warrior who had just entered, his eyes blazing like flames.

The man was tall, with gray hair and blue eyes. He wore a strange suit of armor, and magnetic power surged around him. He actually possessed Magnetic Field Rotation power at the Twenty Heavens as well.

"Wow, that was really close. If I had arrived one moment later, your experimental sample would have escaped, Colonel Stryker. But this works out perfectly—it gives me a chance to demonstrate the quality of my product."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Hammer. You truly helped us out. If he had escaped, he definitely would have caused enormous losses to the base." Colonel Stryker, standing at the door, spoke with great courtesy.

"Providing every customer with sufficient security has always been Hammer Industries’ pursuit. You absolutely won’t regret choosing our company’s products. In the future, even a warrior who has just entered the Magnetic Field Rotation Realm will immediately become a Twenty Heavens expert after putting on our armor."

Justin Hammer said smugly, "In the future, everyone will be Iron Man."

"Mr. Hammer is right. Iron Man will no longer be one of a kind in the future. Iron Man will be everywhere!"

Stryker knew all about the conflict between him and Tony Stark, so he naturally did not mind flattering him a few times.

"The Strong Magnetic Armor from Hammer Industries is remarkably powerful. I’m very satisfied with it, and I’ve decided to equip every Magnetic Field Warrior with one."

"An excellent choice!" Justin beamed. He reached out and shook hands with Stryker, then took off the armor on the spot and handed it to a nearby Magnetic Field Warrior.

"I’ll leave the task of suppressing him to you. I suggest letting him bleed a little every so often. The test subject is too lively, which isn’t good for the research."

"Mr. Hammer is right. We were simply too polite to the sample before. Just leave him breathing." After giving his orders to the Magnetic Field Warriors on-site, Stryker extended a hand in invitation. "This way, Mr. Hammer. Let’s go upstairs and discuss the contract in detail."
