Chapter 98 Wielding the Sword
Chapter 98 Wielding the Sword
"Retreat!" The handsome guard swung his sword in time to block the surging energy afterglow. Even so, the raging waves still made the people around stagger and fly.
Under the pressure of the Chirita, the four heroes were in a very unfavorable situation. The guards tried their best to resist on their own, and the Dark Rose hiding on the wing of the Quinstyle battleship could only draw out a pair of daggers to fight back, which was just a small problem for those fully armed alien warriors.
Only the explosive arrows of Eagle Eye still have some power, and each arrow can penetrate the armor of a Chita warrior.
"Banner, how do you feel?" In the moment of danger, Dark Rose looked at Banner anxiously. As long as he transformed, these dozen or so enemies would be nothing but playthings in his hands.
"Sorry, for some reason, I'm in an unusually calm mood today." Banner smiled bitterly, "Maybe I need some time to prepare."
"That's not a good thing to say." After Qiangwei finished speaking, a drop of golden rain suddenly slid down her shoulder. She then realized that the sky was covered with dark clouds. What was even more surprising was that the rain was actually golden. Could it be that the opening of the space rift caused such a strange phenomenon? As an elite agent, she knew that this was not the time to think. She needed to... What on earth was this...
Just as she was suppressing her distracting thoughts and trying to find a new place to hide, her body suddenly shook and she stumbled to the ground.
"Agent Normanov!" Eagle Eye witnessed this scene and his pupils shrank suddenly, because he had caught a glimpse of a Chita warrior pointing the energy cannon at the Dark Rose.
In a flash, the artillery fire had already started, and it was too late. The shadow of death enveloped Qiangwei, and the surroundings seemed to solidify, and then fell into endless darkness. She seemed to fall into the abyss, to the edge of hell.
Dark Rose was on the verge of death, but she was unwilling to perish. Her desire to survive surged like a tide, leading her to see a faint blue light.
"Boom!" The energy cannon exploded on the ground, and there was no one there. Not far away, the Chita warriors screamed in pain and fell from their aircraft one after another. They were cut by sharp blades and obviously suffered serious injuries.
The captain and Banner were confused, only Eagle Eye witnessed the whole process. Just now, Dark Night Rose's body became illusory under the blue energy. She cleverly avoided the attack and jumped several feet to the top of the aircraft. With the help of some strange power, the enemies were all wiped out in an instant.
This extraordinary feat is beyond human capability. Romanov...wait a minute, this speed is beyond the range of human vision, why can I see the details clearly, as if time has stopped?
"Where is Agent Romanov?" The captain came quickly, looking confused.
"Over there." The Eagle Eye pointed to the shadow, in which a ghostly figure gradually took on the appearance of a dark night rose.
"You wiped out those Chita people. How did you do it?" Eagle Eyes was full of suspicion.
"I don't understand either." Dark Night Rose was also shocked. "I just followed my heart and this happened. It seems like something strange is happening inside me."
“I’m afraid you’re not the only one who has changed.” Eagle Eyes looked around and was surprised to find that his field of vision had extended to a thousand meters away, like a god looking down on the mortal world.
After the golden rain, the fleeing people changed one by one. A thin man, who was chased by the Chirita, survived and controlled the car to defeat the alien warriors one after another.
An old man, who was seriously injured, had his wounds healed quickly, his white hair turned black, and his old face returned to his youth, as if time had gone back.
What’s even more bizarre is that a young girl in a red hat turned into a ferocious werewolf and tore the pursuers into pieces.
Some of those who gain special abilities also experience drastic changes in their appearance, some growing wings, some adding a third eye to their foreheads, or even doubling their limbs.
New York City seems like a painting where gods and demons are intertwined, and it has returned to the mythological era for a moment.
"What's happened to us? I feel like I've turned into a ghost assassin." After Dark Night Rose finished speaking, a faint blue light gathered in her palms.
"What will the world say about having such power?" Banner was bathed in the golden rain, and his original feeling of weakness disappeared, and he became refreshed.
"Mutants!" Dark Night Rose was not stupid, and immediately made a connection. "We have become mutants, is this rain related to Lu Yifang and the mutants behind him?"
“Whether it is true or not, just ask.” Before the Eagle Eye finished speaking, the arrow flew off the bowstring and pointed straight into the sky. It happened that Lu Yifang, who was at the corner, appeared after killing the Chita man, and the arrow hit him right in the middle.
"What a coincidence, it's you guys." Lu Yifang floated down.
"Did you cause this rain? What did you do to us?" Dark Night Rose teleported behind Lu Yifang, with a dagger formed by dark blue energy against his neck, and the bowstring of Eagle Eye was taut, aiming at the visitor.
"As expected of you who have received rigorous training, your adaptability is very different from that of ordinary people, and your ability to awaken is also quite outstanding." Although Lu Yifang was controlled by the dagger, he was not panicked and instead praised his ability.
"So all this..." Dark Night Rose hadn't finished her words when her heart was suddenly shaken. An inexplicable and intimate whisper spread in her heart...
"Don't panic, don't be afraid~!" As soon as the words fell, the scene in front of Black Widow suddenly changed, and she was already standing in the air. In front of her were almost all the X-Men members and several mutants in the Brotherhood. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lu Yifang held a golden crystal and threw it into the sky.
At the same time, the gentle and deep male voice sounded again, like a spring breeze: "My people, perhaps you are in danger at this moment, your hearts are full of fear and confusion, facing alien enemies that only exist on the screen, and your bodies are undergoing incomprehensible changes. But please remember, you are not alone."
As these words flowed softly, the scenery before Black Widow's eyes kept changing. She seemed to experience every corner of New York City in person, switching between the perspectives of the elderly, middle-aged scholars, women and children freely, witnessing the strange changes that took place in them, and even vaguely empathizing with their emotional fluctuations.
"There is no need to fear the alien enemies in front of you, and there is no need to fear your own power. What you see is my true self. Gentlemen, in the face of such a disaster, the police are unable to protect you, and the military is also difficult to rescue you in time. However, you can save yourself. This power is the best shield to protect yourself. Show your strengths and survive."
After she finished speaking, everything seemed like a mirage, and Black Widow came back to her senses, realizing that what she had just experienced was only a flash of time.
"The scene just now..."
"That's Professor X's voice. He is now connecting with the hearts of millions of newly awakened mutants, soothing their minds." Lu Yifang explained, "As you can see, we only want to save more lives from disaster."
"Turning all the people in New York into mutants is a pretty crazy move, I have to admit." Black Widow turned around abruptly, and the energy dagger in her hand flew out and stabbed deeply into the body of a Chitauri warrior who was still alive. "But under the circumstances, you did a great job."
"There is one thing I need to clarify." Lu Yifang stretched out a finger seriously and waved it gently in front of Black Widow's eyes, "Don't call yourselves 'mutants', which is a biased term. Call yourselves 'new generation humans'!"
"It's good news that you can understand." As soon as Lu Yifang finished speaking, a roar was heard.
It turned out to be Banner who turned into the Hulk, perhaps because of the sudden change of the X-crystal rain, or because he saw Lu Yifang. The Hulk locked his eyes fiercely on Lu Yifang, as if he wanted to jump on him.
