Chapter 540: Gods and Sentinels

In 2023, the future X-Men universe, Earth New York.

The sky is filled with gunpowder smoke that cannot be dissipated due to the long war, and the high-rise buildings abandoned by future civilizations are like nameless tombstones after being stained with black dust. A few decades ago, as the most economically developed human city on the earth, it was like a surviving relic of the apocalypse, and even the air was filled with extremely pungent and unpleasant oil smoke and the smell of blood.

Located in the middle of the black-and-gray city ruins, there is an ultra-modern area that glows with a dazzling light, which is known as the "X-ray Concentration Camp". After the machine ruled over humans, both mutants and ordinary people had to wear necklaces that restricted their personal freedom and obey the instructions of the machines to labor.

This is the real apocalypse, a time and space with no hope in sight.

"The Great God ...... above"

Some of the apocalyptic survivors hid in the underground ruins, swallowing what little food was left, and praying around the flickering glimmer of candles.

Many people often chant the phrase, "Disaster has befallen since God left the world......

The catastrophe here is not an alien invasion, it is not a natural disaster, but something even more terrifying than the first two.

'Click-'

The dead gray sky was hovering with X-ray concentration camp flying objects, which were dropping a dead gray mechanical creature with a head full of three meters tall towards the ruined ground.

About fifty meters below the ground of this ruin, there is a temporary camp of mutants hidden in the depths, with all kinds of supplies, water and electricity, and mutants of all ages, men, women, and children, are talking and laughing at each other, as if to cover up the trauma caused by the end of the world outside.

'Boom! ’

Hearing the dull movement from above the camp, the mutants who were still smiling and chatting suddenly froze their faces and stopped making a sound, and their eyes showed a little horror.

"Here they are, Sentinels!"

Lucas, the head of the mutant makeshift camp, is a middle-aged man wearing a red cloak and holding a charged firearm, and when he heard the movement from above, he immediately issued an emergency warning internally.

Sentry.

Just like a hopeless symbol of doom at the moment, when they heard this name, all the mutants changed their faces, and they all took action in place, skillfully and quickly ready to face the battle.

"Sunspots!"

Lucas shouted, and the young man codenamed Kuroko on the side immediately understood, and his palm injected powerful solar energy into his charged firearm.

"Go to the safe house! I'm going to inform the other members! ”

A beautiful woman dressed in non-mainstream clothes rushed out, and with a wave of her hand, smashed out a gorgeous flickering teleportation window, and Lucas and a blonde loli jumped into the window, and immediately teleported to the inside of the camp with the flicker.

Flicker flicks his whip and uses his flickering ability to jump to another underground chamber and command the other mutants to stand by.

At the same time, the mutants who survived the catastrophe of this endless war, such as Colossus, Burning Man, Iceman, and Ravager, all of whom had survived countless battles, tensed up and guarded their surroundings as soon as the alarm sounded, ready to stop the Sentinel invasion with all their might.

'Boom-'

Almost the next moment when the mutants were ready, the thick ceiling of the basement was forcibly broken, and from above a hum fell a war machine made for battle, the Sentinel.

The second-generation Sentinel is not ugly, but it is a veritable mutant nemesis, they can freely read and reproduce mutant abilities, and they also have super strength, stamina, defense, etc., no mutant can kill this almost invincible killing machine.

Knowing that there was no chance of survival even if they escaped, a group of mutant warriors, led by Colossus, shouted and unleashed their abilities to fight hard against the raiding sentinels.

Five minutes later.

In the messy basement, several mutant corpses fell to the ground.

Colossus was transformed into stainless steel throughout, and its neck was still directly twisted. The flames on the burning man were extinguished, the flame of life was extinguished, and the body was frozen into an ice sculpture. The frost on the surface of the ice-crushing body melted, and a huge wound remained in his chest, and the inner bones had melted into blood.

This is the power of sentinels, they are invincible in the present apocalypse.

The three unscathed sentinels were expressionless and went deeper into the basement, and one of them directly used the ability of the fire man to melt open the steel protective door.

In the inner safe house, Lucas was lying on a single bed, blonde Lori pressed his temples with both hands, injecting a glimmer of light into his brain, seeing the sentry kill her companion and open the protective door and step into the safe house, Lori inexplicably showed a sneer of hatred: "You guys are a step too late." ”

……

Moscow, in an underground city.

A stealth fighter descends smoothly, and as the hatch opens, it is Logan who walks out first, then to Storm, Charles who is bald in a levitating wheelchair, and finally Magneto Eric.

Even Logan, who will not get old, has gray temples at this time, and as for Charles and Eric, their faces are full of wrinkles, one is bald, the other is full of gray hair, and they are no longer in the prime of their youth.

"Professor."

The people who had been waiting here for a long time walked out, and it was Lucas and the blonde Lori, as well as Colossus.

"We succeeded." Lucas walked towards Charles and said in a deep voice: "Through the ability of the Phantom Cat, although our team has been attacked by the Sentinels many times, as long as the Fantasy Cat sends me back to three days ago in time, I can move the camp in advance to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the Sentinels." ”

"You're talking about going back in time? Can that girl send people to the past? Charles narrowed his eyes in surprise as he looked at the blonde Lori who was following Lucas.

Phantom Cat hurriedly explained: "It's not an ordinary trip back to the past, I can only make one person's consciousness go back to a few days ago, or my own body. ”

"That's enough, the world is hopeless now, but if we can go back to the past......" Eric looked meaningfully at Charles.

"I know what you're thinking."

Charles nodded and recalled, "The origin of this apocalyptic dispute began fifty years ago, in 1973. There is a scientist named BolΓ­var Trask, who created a generation of Sentinel drawings by studying mutant genes, and wanted to eliminate all mutants in the world, but the government rejected the proposal. ”

Eric picked up his words and sighed, "But because Raven shot Trask, the government realized the danger of mutants, and they captured Raven and successfully perfected a generation of sentinels through the replica mutant genes on her body." ”

Lucas understood what the second elder meant, and said quickly: "You want people to go back to fifty years ago and stop everything from happening?" ”

"It can't be." Phantom Cat shook his head and said, "Letting a person go back for three days is already the limit of what the brain can carry. Even a professor, with the smartest brain in the world, can't go back to a year ago, let alone fifty years ago. ”

Logan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "What if that person's brain could heal itself infinitely." ”

Everyone was silent for a moment, but theoretically, this was definitely a ray of apocalypse.

The phantom cat looked at the others in confusion, and wondered: "Why do you firmly believe that going back to fifty years can reverse all this, the historical facts are difficult to change, and once you make a mistake, you can't come back at all." ”

Charles and Eric glanced at each other, their cloudy eyes flashing with a look of remembrance, and then said in unison: "Because fifty years ago, the world ...... There was a God, an invincible God. ”

The gods once flew through the sky and left legends, but unfortunately, the gods left this world, and the end came.
