Raven, Ororo vs. Hive vs. Hulk vs. Daisy
Doctor Banner had previously been taken away and suppressed by Tony because of his attempted self-destruction. After regaining consciousness, he had recovered his sanity once more, but the nightmare of personally killing his lover still haunted him. He still wanted to die.
Although Tony had found him many professional psychologists, psychologists might have been able to treat ordinary people, but treating Magnetic Field Warriors was rather difficult.
The brain circuits of Magnetic Field Warriors were all somewhat abnormal, and every one of them was a fanatic. Under the influence of Magnetic Field Rotation Force, all Magnetic Field Warriors were prone to getting stuck in dead ends.
Originally, because of Hulk’s influence, Doctor Banner had been unable to commit suicide, and under Tony’s suppression, he had also been unable to go berserk and seek death. But today, Earth had been destroyed, and his chance to commit suicide had arrived.
The instant Earth exploded, Tony and Pepper put on their armor and fled. Doctor Banner did not. He simply stood there without moving.
But a problem arose. Even if he did not resist, he was still a genuine expert at the Fifty Heavens. The damage brought about by Earth’s destruction could not even break through the Protective Astral Energy around his body.
Even after he canceled his Protective Astral Energy, neither the explosion nor the magma could leave a mark on him. The damage they inflicted could not outpace his body’s self-healing. The magma capable of destroying people was no more than a bath to him.
Thus, even after Earth had been completely destroyed, he still had not managed to die. He had not even forced Hulk out.
He stood dejectedly in the void, turning his head and looking around before gazing toward the place radiating a powerful aura. With the aid of Magnetic Field Force, ten thousand miles was nothing. He easily saw Daisy, who was still in the midst of her rampage.
The massive infusion of Gravitonium had completely muddled Daisy’s reason. Moreover, recalling the act of personally killing her father had caused the madman within her to run wild as well. Her heart and mind were filled with nothing but destruction, leaving her utterly irrational. Even after she had destroyed Earth, she continued wantonly venting her power in every direction.
His spirits lifted, and he immediately charged toward Daisy. Once he reached her, he gathered all his strength and slammed a heavy punch toward her.
"Roar…" Daisy howled and instinctively swept a heavy punch over as well.
Their fists collided. Three kinds of power churned and erupted together within Daisy’s fist, forming an ultra-powerful gravitational field. Like a black hole, it sucked Doctor Banner’s fist inside.
Doctor Banner withdrew his Protective Astral Energy, and his right arm instantly twisted like a braid.
The moment he sensed the threat of death, his body turned green and swelled. Hulk appeared.
"Hulk!" Hulk roared furiously and kicked Daisy.
Daisy let out another howl, clasped her fists together, and hammered them down onto Hulk’s thigh.
Amid a thunderous impact, the two were both sent flying. But after that exchange, they had already drawn each other’s hatred. They immediately pounced at each other again and began to fight savagely.
The two monsters rolled and tumbled through the void like lunatics, becoming entangled in battle.
Although neither of them retained any consciousness, their instincts remained. The longer they fought, the crazier and more ferocious they became.
Neither of them attacked defensively. They only attacked, darting everywhere through space without restraint. The area affected grew wider and wider, and the battlefield expanded constantly. The ones suffering the most were the Magnetic Field Warriors caught in the crossfire. For the most part, encountering them meant certain death.
Raven had originally been in the palace when the sky suddenly collapsed and the earth split apart. Thinking that an enemy had launched an attack, she hurriedly transformed into Magneto’s appearance and prepared to face the enemy. But after looking around in confusion, she could not find any enemy at all.
Paradise Island had been destroyed. She organized her subordinates to launch a rescue operation, with Iceman freezing a thick layer of ice over the sea, while Nightcrawler and the others worked together to rescue as many Mutants as possible onto the ice island.
But no matter how much effort everyone expended, they were ultimately powerless against the extreme natural disaster of a planet’s destruction.
Magma surged from beneath the sea and mixed with the seawater, sending massive amounts of steam billowing upward. Many Mutants were scalded by the steam, and some were even cooked alive. The sea boiled, turning the ocean into a pot of seafood Mutant meat porridge.
The entire surface of the sea was filled with a nauseating aroma of cooked flesh.
Then, because of the destruction of the atmosphere, the oxygen was rapidly depleted. Even those lucky enough to survive could not escape the final fate of suffocation.
In the end, she could only watch helplessly as all her people except Ororo froze before her eyes, becoming desiccated corpses before being swallowed by the cold void.
"No…" Raven wailed, blood tears streaming freely down her cheeks.
As a queen, she had been unable to protect her people, allowing every one of them to die before her eyes. This dealt an enormous shock to Raven’s mind.
After transforming into Magneto, her appearance, abilities, and way of thinking had all been affected. Even the Magneto’s residual magnetic field had been stirred by this new body.
And now, Raven had encountered the same circumstances Magneto Erik had once faced. This similar situation stimulated the body she had transformed into, and Magneto’s former Magnetic Field Realm was slowly awakening within her.
Ororo, who was in the same situation, had likewise been stimulated by the annihilation of her people, and her Magnetic Field Rotation Realm surged wildly.
Raven’s killing intent surged like a vast tide. She turned her head and looked around, wanting to find the culprit who had destroyed Earth and take revenge. But after sweeping the area with her Magnetic Field Force, she stared motionlessly at the distant sky.
She had actually discovered another Magneto!
As Magneto’s younger sister and close companion for many years, she was extremely familiar with every part of Magneto’s body. Otherwise, she could not have transformed into him so perfectly. Thus, she recognized at a glance that the person standing in the distant sky was Magneto Erik!
But Magneto was already dead, and they had personally buried his corpse together. Then who was this person?
Raven and Ororo exchanged a glance. They no longer bothered to search for the culprit and immediately moved, charging rapidly toward that person.
The closer they got, the more certain they became that this person was Magneto.
"What are you?" Raven demanded loudly after rushing up to him.
"Magneto" glanced at them and smiled faintly. "You can call me Hive. Of course, for now, you can also call me Magneto."
"Then… this body?" Raven asked in a trembling voice.
"Oh, I got it from beneath your palace! It works great!" Hive acted as though it were nothing, but his words infuriated Raven and Ororo.
"Damn you! How dare you desecrate Erik’s corpse!"
Rage surged within Raven. The magnetic field around her churned as she stepped forward and punched straight at Hive’s face.
Hive casually waved a hand and blocked the attack, then kicked Raven away. Ororo hurriedly moved in to attack, preventing Hive from pursuing Raven and finishing her off.
Raven vomited a mouthful of blood, but her fighting spirit surged. She forcibly halted her retreating body in midair and charged back again, intending to join Ororo in fighting Hive.
But before she could even approach Hive this time, a green figure slammed into her and sent her flying.
Daisy and Hulk had fought themselves into a frenzy. They were rampaging wildly through space and happened to reach this area. Hulk had just been punched away by Daisy and happened to crash into Raven.
Raven flew into a rage and casually struck Hulk away, but this enraged Hulk, who turned around and entangled himself with her.
Meanwhile, Daisy had also begun fighting Hive, leaving Ororo free on the side.
These two lunatics had no rationality whatsoever. Each of them desperately fought the enemy closest to them.
