IMUC Chapter 557 The Awakened Magneto
IMUC Chapter 557 The Awakened Magneto
Charles removed the mechanical helmet, drenched in cold sweat, with his bangs sticking to his forehead. His hands, resting on the armrests of the wheelchair, were clenched tightly into fists, clearly reflecting his intense state of anxiety.
"Just now... even the Cerebro system became a bit unstable, just like when you were tracing Caesar's consciousness before. The feedback signal exceeded the machine's limits."
Hank swallowed nervously, supporting Charles's back. He couldn't help but ask, "Professor Charles, what exactly did you see? Was it a person?"
Charles took a few deep breaths to calm his inner shock and then spoke carefully, "Yes. A powerful mutant I've never seen before. His presence is similar to Caesar's, but also very different. If Caesar's aura is like the sun— bright and warm— this person's aura was like a black hole: cold, dark, and seemingly intent on absorbing my consciousness completely."
"Who is it?" Azazel squinted, astonished that someone could be as powerful as Caesar.
"I couldn't see clearly," Charles shook his head, still shaken. "He wants to destroy the world. This intention was completely exposed, wrapped around his aura. I didn't dare probe too close. Just before I removed the helmet, he seemed to sense my gaze."
Hank sighed, "So we have a powerful mutant who wants to destroy the world, and the Sentinels are still an unresolved issue? This world is truly troubled."
"We don't have time to complain."
Charles furrowed his brows, contemplating, "I saw that Erik is near a train station in New Jersey. There are several secret military bases around there and it's a key route for transporting important military equipment. I suspect Erik plans to take action against the Sentinel weapons being re
Hank, holding Azazel's hand, nodded at him. Following the cue, Azazel used his powers to disappear with Hank from behind Alex.
In the next moment, crimson flames erupted beside Erik. Hank emerged, grabbing Erik by the neck with his strong hands and pinning him down against the top of the train.
"Damn it!"
Erik struggled to lift his hand, attempting to control the Sentinels, but Alex stepped in front of him, his energy-emitting chest facing Erik. "Stop, don't force me!"
Logan stood up again, taking a step forward and saying firmly, "Erik, you can't win. You're alone, but we are a team."
"Are you just going to let them create Sentinels? Sentinels are the weapons that will destroy us in the future!" Erik's eyes were bloodshot as he clenched his fists and pounded on the train's roof.
Realizing the futility of his struggle, he faced four experienced mutants. No matter how strong he was, there was a limit.
Logan shook his head. "We certainly won't ignore the future. But responding to violence with violence will never solve the real problem."
Erik's face remained cold and silent.
Hank suggested, "Let's take him back to the Professor. I'll handle the aftermath."
"Alright," Azazel nodded, placing his hand on Erik. Just as they were about to teleport away, a burst of purple flames erupted on the train's roof, and several mysterious figures stepped out.
"We've found him."
The leading mysterious figure gazed at the subdued Erik and calmly said, "The Fourth Horseman! My child."
