Chapter 154; Apocalypse awakens
"Now that you've conducted human trials, can you know the success rate of awakening?" Lu Fang continued to ask.
"The probability of ordinary people awakening is seventy percent, and if the X gene is not activated, there will not be much image for them themselves, and the real trouble is that the X gene in the body is activated, because these awakened people, and forty percent are crippled products whose abilities are completely out of control." Big-Headed Stern explained.
"In other words, the success rate is about one-third." Lu Fang frowned and said, although in all fairness, a one-third awakening rate is good, but the main thing is that the chance of becoming a defective product is too high.
If someone told you that you could have superpowers by taking a bottle of medicine, I don't think anyone would be able to resist the temptation, but if they were telling you that if you awakened your abilities, there was more than a half chance that you would only become a deformed freak lying in a lab, would you still be willing to try it?
"The success rate of awakening has increased so much, why has the probability of defective products barely decreased, can't the information of the Cree people help us?" Lu Fang frowned and said.
"Of course not, the Cree are very useful to us, but there is a problem with this, and that is that the Cree use the genes of our ancestors from ancient times." Stern said, suddenly bringing up a genetic map.
"According to our research, the ancestors of mutants have always been united with ordinary hominids, and one or two thousand years ago, this fusion was the highest. As a result, our genes are different from those used by the Cree people. ”
"And then? I just want to know how to fix it. Lu Fang asked with a gloomy face.
"It's good to get the genes of the original mutants, we can compare the two genes, as long as the genes we get are old enough, we can completely reduce the defective rate to less than one percent."
"If that's the case, then I might have good news." When the White Queen heard this, she suddenly smiled and said to the road side. "Magneto has just sent news that the Brotherhood has found the approximate location of the Apocalypse."
"It's taken so long to finally find it." Lu Yifang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his expression became excited. "Does the professor already know? It's time for us to act together this time. ”
·······
On the stealth fighter of the Mutant Academy, Magneto took the White Queen and stepped onto the plane together. At this time, Professor X had already brought the older generation of X-Men, including Wolverine, on the plane. This operation is too dangerous, so the new generation of X-Men, except for the road side, is naturally impossible to participate.
"Yifang, you did a good job this time, I have heard about the research institute, that X gene formula, when will we mass produce it, I will use all my resources to contribute." At this time, Magneto patted Lu Fang's shoulder and said with a look of relief.
"Eric, you're too impatient, I also know about the genetic formula, and it's not time yet. Do you also want one side to be like you, and eventually lose all your efforts? Professor X, who came over in a wheelchair, said with a frown.
"Young people have their own ideas, and we don't need to push them, we just need to help them in real time."
Hearing this, Magneto glanced at Professor X, his eyes flickered for a moment, and then he smiled and nodded, and then changed the conversation. "Charles, it's been a long time since we've joined forces like this."
"yes, it's been a long time, so long that we're all old." Professor X's eyes also showed a look of nostalgia as he spoke, and the two sighed at the same time, unconsciously looking at the sunset outside the window together.
Seeing this, the others all sat back in their seats in silence, and the Storm Girl, after hesitating for a moment, started the plane engine and turned to the east.
But when the plane arrived in Egypt, it was already late at night, and this was also indicated by the road side, after all, if it was a sunny day during the day, maybe the professor had just stopped at the entrance of the tomb of the apocalypse, and after a passive sun fist. Apocalypse shouted who was calling me, and crawled out of the coffin covered in blood.
And when the plane landed on a desert, the demon girl who had been waiting here for a long time immediately greeted her.
"Raven, how's it going?" Magneto, who had just gotten off the plane, asked.
"Apocalypse's grave is under this desert, and we've dug up the entrance, but we've sealed it off to be on the safe side." The Shapeshifter explained.
"This is a wise choice, Apocalypse is a fifth-level mutant after all, not to mention that his life and death are still a mystery, so it's better to be careful." Lu Fang nodded and said.
"What if Apocalypse is really alive, shall we pull him into the gang?" The Demonic asked suddenly.
"Of course, it's to make up for it and kill him." The road side said without looking back. "It's true that Apocalypse is also a mutant, but do you think that a mutant five thousand years ago would have the same thinking as us? Of course, that's not the most important thing, the most important Apocalypse is actually the mutant's predator, he's an ability predator, and I can guarantee that half of us have abilities that have a good appeal to him. ”
"That's just as well." The Demonic Girl thought for a moment and said in agreement.
Ignoring the Demonic Girl, Lu discussed with the Professor and Magneto, and finally decided to let Jean Gray go down to explore the path first.
"Do you feel it? The breath of the presence in the tomb, he is definitely not dead. Jean, who had descended to the graveyard, suddenly spoke.
"Almost, do you feel that way?" Lu Fang glanced back at Qin, and at this time, Qin's hair had already turned fiery red, and the meditation methods of the magicians had indeed stabilized Qin's mood to a great extent.
At the same time, this also makes Qin more powerful, at this time Qin is already fully able to exert the power of a level five mutant, of course, not only that, the power in her body is still growing, which makes her have more room for growth, but this also causes her to still have the risk of losing control in the future.
And through Qin's same induction as himself, Lu Fang naturally understood that this is an ability that only fifth-level mutants can obtain, after awakening to become a fifth-level mutant, after encountering the same fifth-level mutant, the X gene in the body will be inducted, just like a beast will smell the breath of the same kind.
"Then let's do some preparation now." Lu Yifang said, and began to pull out tons of TNT from his magic ring. It took a little effort to get his hands on that much TNT.
"That's what you call preparation." Looking at the bomb that the road side stuffed into herself, Qin couldn't help but look sideways.
"That's right, the other party is also a level 5 mutant, how can you be careless, by the way, will these bombs hurt you?"
"The image isn't too big." Qin said calmly, for her with the power of a phoenix, ordinary thermal weapons would not hurt her much.
With the arrangement of the equivalent, Lu Fang finally entered the tomb with Qin, and through the fireball made by the phoenix, a bald head wearing armor and gray-blue skin could be seen not far away, lying on a golden bed engraved with runes.
He is Apocalypse, a fifth-level mutant who has been sleeping for five thousand years due to an accident, and time has not left a trace on him. And now that he has slept in the long history of human civilization, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up·····
"it! We slept well for five thousand years, and we woke up as soon as we came. At this time, the road side that saw this scene was suddenly blinded.
At this time, Tianqi, who had just woken up, looked at Lu Yifang and Qin immediately after his eyes were confused. At the same time, a voice sounded in the minds of the two of them. "I feel a call from my genes, are you waking me up? My strong children. ”
The scene quieted down suddenly, Qin and Lu Fang were a little overwhelmed for a while, the two really didn't expect that the apocalypse was directly stimulated to wake up because of the arrival of two fifth-level mutants.
I saw that Tianqi raised his head slightly and squinted his eyes, and then continued to speak: "I feel that there are still many of our people outside, are you here to greet me?" Welcome your God back. ”
And this time, the words spoken by the Apocalypse have changed from spiritual transmission to standard English, language is not a problem for the Apocalypse, and the ability to quickly understand other people's languages is also one of the many abilities that Apocalypse has plundered.
"That's right, Lord Apocalypse, we finally found you at great cost, and you really didn't die." Hearing this, Lu Yifang, who finally reacted, suddenly showed an excited expression on his face, and even his voice choked.
"Lord Apocalypse, this is a gift that we have carefully prepared and sacrificed to you, please be sure to accept it." As he spoke, he took out a half-human-high high-explosive TNT bomb from his hands and handed it to Apocalypse with a respectful face.
