Only Professor X Can Deal with Mutants (Bonus Chapter 2/12 for Alliance Leader Ye Shang Kong Ming)

Chapter 128: Only Professor X Can Deal with Mutants (Bonus Chapter 212 for Alliance Leader Ye Shang Kong Ming)

Poland was gone, Germany was gone, and now it was the Czech Republic’s turn.

Magneto had spent more than a day rampaging through the region. Destroying cities was easy; a few punches were enough. But traveling took time. Everyone in the surrounding countries who had received the news had already scattered and fled.

To deal with Magneto, the European Union’s military had used every method available. No one even knew how many nuclear bombs, hydrogen bombs, and neutron bombs they had dropped, but none of them had any effect.

They eventually realized that these weapons were too slow. Unless Magneto stood there and let them hit him, they simply could not strike him. Helpless, they had no choice but to give up.

The news spread across the internet and became known throughout the world.

After all, nuclear weapons made far too much noise. Anyone a hundred miles away could hear them, making it impossible to keep things hidden.

When hope turned into disappointment, and disappointment eventually became despair, people finally broke down.

Many cities did not even need Magneto to attack them. Even before he arrived—or when he was not even heading in their direction—they had already descended into chaos.

The wealthy and powerful rulers had long since abandoned their duties. They fled Europe in private jets, heading to Asia, the Americas, and even Antarctica.

Without government institutions to maintain order, the entire cities naturally fell into chaos.

Public transportation had completely shut down. Those who tried to drive out of the cities were trapped on the roads by traffic accidents.

Aside from people living in the suburbs, who managed to flee relatively quickly, the middle class living in the city centers was essentially trapped inside the cities.

Those who could get their hands on motorcycles or bicycles used every means at their disposal to flee desperately.

Those who knew there was no hope of escape began venting their darkest desires. They turned the entire city into a pool of filth, like a swamp, desperately dragging everyone inside down with them and waiting for death together.

Amid this apocalyptic spectacle, Erik was pleasantly surprised to discover that many people’s X-Genes had been activated, turning them into Mutants.

How many years had it been since Europe had experienced such an apocalyptic scene? The Europeans, whose fighting spirit had long been worn away by peace, finally experienced their own insignificance and helplessness again.

In these chaotic cities, there was no doubt that Mutants with superpowers had a much higher chance of survival.

However, many people also developed all sorts of twisted schemes because of these Mutants’ identities.

Some wanted to kill them to vent their anger. Some wanted to capture them and use them as hostages in exchange for a chance to survive. Others wanted to exploit their abilities to carve a path out of the cities.

There was no shortage of methods.

But when it came to Magneto, everyone was treated equally.

Mutants lived!

Humans died!

It was that simple!

Even the parents and relatives of Mutants were not exempt.

As for whether killing their parents in front of their children would have any adverse consequences, Magneto no longer cared.

Everything was for the Mutants!

Under the banner of a great cause, every action was reasonable, correct, and acceptable. To create a pure world inhabited only by Mutants, all of this was worth it.

As for the misfortune suffered by this generation of Mutants, it was the sacrifice and price that had to be paid for the better lives of future generations.

The Mutants of later generations would forever remember everything their predecessors had sacrificed for their happiness.

As the saying went, if I do not go to Hell, who will?

I, Erik Lehnsherr, would bear all the blame!

Embracing this fearless spirit of sacrifice, Magneto showed no mercy. Whenever he arrived at a city, he first rescued the Mutants, then destroyed the city before hurrying on to the next one.

It was not that the other countries had never considered threatening Magneto with the Mutants he had rescued. The problem was that they had no way to communicate with him.

If anyone who was not a Mutant appeared before Magneto, they would be punched to death before they could finish speaking.

And the Mutants who could have been used against him? The X-Men had already been crippled.

As for the Brotherhood of Mutants, they had been a group of terrorists from the beginning. Now, inspired by Magneto’s deeds, they had begun occupying cities and preparing to establish their own country.

Most importantly, the countries that had not yet been targeted were unwilling to stick their necks out. None of them dared risk using Mutants to threaten Magneto. What if they attracted him? Wouldn’t that just be asking for trouble?

Europe also had quite a few superhero groups, along with many magic users. Faced with this world-ending crisis, they all bravely stepped forward, attempting to stop Magneto.

But Magneto, who had resolved himself to destroy the world, possessed a will strong enough to shake the heavens and earth. Combined with his Fifty Heavens Magnetic Field Rotation ability, he truly killed gods who blocked his path and Buddhas who stood in his way.

He chopped down the attacking superheroes as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

The one-sided battles sent chills down the spines of the various leaders watching from behind the satellites. They were terrified that human history might end at Magneto’s hands!

Previously, those human dignitaries had known that Magneto was powerful. But no matter how powerful he was, could he really be more powerful than a nuclear bomb?

It had to be said that the Peace Bomb’s power was simply too great. It had given the rulers of every country an inexplicable confidence, making them believe that nothing could surpass nuclear weapons in terms of military force.

That was why they had been able to suppress Mutants without restraint, completely disregarding how low the Mutants’ status in society was.

And the only person capable of threatening all of humanity, Professor X, was a pacifist. That had only emboldened them further.

But now that they had seen how formidable Magneto was, and realized that he really might be able to wipe out all of humanity by himself, they lost their nerve.

"Why don’t we try negotiating with Magneto and allow the Mutants to establish their own country?"

"He clearly wants to wipe out all of humanity. Why would he stop just because we let them establish a country?"

"But the children of Mutants aren’t necessarily Mutants themselves! All humans carry Mutant genes. We’re all practically brothers and sisters to begin with, so why make things so hostile?"

"Why don’t you go explain that to him and see whether he’ll listen to you?"

"I’m trying to find a way to solve the problem. If you don’t like it, then give us a solution!"

Just as the group was arguing heatedly, General Talbot’s phone suddenly rang.

He glanced down at it. It was an unfamiliar number. He answered, and a familiar voice sounded in his ear.

"General Talbot, this is Stryker. I have a way to deal with Magneto."

Talbot hated the man to the bone by now, but when he heard that Stryker had a way to deal with Magneto, he had no choice but to suppress his anger and say in a low voice:

"As long as you deal with Magneto, all your charges will be dropped. I can even nominate you to the Pentagon and have you appointed as a general."

"Heh heh…" Stryker laughed indifferently a few times before saying, "I don’t care about that. All I care about is how to wipe out these Mutant bastards."

"I need you to find someone to repair Professor X’s Cerebro. To deal with Magneto, we can only use his old rival, Professor X."

"I’ll send someone to retrieve Professor X." General Talbot tried to take control of the situation, but Stryker rejected him firmly.

"No. Professor X must be in my hands. Once you repair Cerebro, call this number, and I’ll tell you where to send him."

General Talbot took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. "Fine, I agree! But you’d better keep your word!"
