Chapter 345: The X-Men go deep into the wormhole under the sea
"If these monsters aren't creatures on Earth, where do they come from?" Wolverine asked, curious.
Professor X helped the wheelchair, "They come from a very distant place, millions of light-years away from our earth, it is a planet called Anteverse, the planet is inhabited by a pioneer race of intelligent lifeforms, the pioneer family has a super high level of biotechnology, and those prehistoric monsters are the creatures created by their pioneer family to invade our earth civilization. ”
After listening to Professor X's account, the X-Men's faces were full of surprise, and they were surprised by what they had heard.
They thought that those prehistoric monsters were hidden in the isolated inner world or the underwater world, and they climbed to the surface because of some change in the living environment, but they didn't think that they were creatures raised by aliens!
But Professor X is the strongest psychic on Earth after all, and he has indeed read the memories of the Great Ape Monster, so there is no doubt that these are indisputable facts!
Even if it sounds outrageous, it's an undeniable fact!
"However, as you just said, Professor, the planet called Anteverse is millions of light-years away from our Earth, so how did those monsters get to our Earth? There has been no coverage of the alien spacecraft in the headlines lately......"
Wolverine brought up his doubts, but before he could finish speaking, Professor ** interrupted, "The mystery is in the Mariana Trench at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean!" ”
"The Mariana Trench at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean?" Wolverine didn't quite understand.
"The memories I've read show that there is a gap beneath the Mariana Trench that glows blue. If I'm right, it's a 'wormhole'. The wormhole, also known as the Einstein-Rosen Bridge, is a multi-dimensional space tunnel connecting two distant space-times in the universe, presumably the fifty monsters reached the earth through the wormhole at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, thus invading human civilization. Professor X explained.
"Oh my God! In this way, the pioneers on that alien planet can continuously send monsters to our earth through that wormhole? Wolverine was a little worried, although he himself had a self-healing body, but the other 7 billion people on the planet did not, including his "family" X-Men, and he couldn't bear to see the people he cherished die at the feet of an endless army of monsters.
"It's understandable. If the number of monsters continues to increase, our human side will eventually perish. Professor X paused, and continued, "But there's a way to try, and maybe we can end this." ”
"How?"
The crowd was almost unanimous, curious as to what the professor was talking about.
"Destroy that wormhole and break the tunnel between the two planets!"
Professor X replied in a resounding voice, a hint of determination in his eyes that he vowed to save the human world.
……
After leaving South Africa, the X-Men did not return to X Academy.
According to the coordinates indicated by Professor X, they flew to the top of the Mariana Sea.
Again, as before, the beast stayed on the plane and waited for the others to return.
However, this time, in addition to the beasts, there were three other people on the plane who also stayed, not because the three of them didn't want to go, but because the three of them played a very little role in the underwater environment.
Professor X, paralyzed in a wheelchair, is extremely inconvenient to dive to the bottom of the sea.
Storm girl, her ability can't be used at all at the bottom of the sea, and it's useless to go down, just a burden that drags her feet.
There is also the Burning Man, a mutant with flames burning all over his body, going into the water, which is tantamount to committing suicide.
Therefore, this time, only the five X-Men who dived to the bottom of the sea to carry out the mission of "destroying the wormhole" were Wolverine, Phantom Cat, Laser Eye, Colossus, and Iceman.
Among the five X-Men, only the phantom cat and laser eye with ordinary physique wore special deep-sea diving suits, as for Wolverine, who has a strong self-healing body, steel Lux with a manganese steel body, and an iceman with an ice body, due to their special physique, they can adapt to the deep-sea environment, but they don't need to wear deep-sea diving suits.
Of the five X-Men who went to sea, the most powerful Colossus was responsible for carrying the neutron bullets.
This neutron bomb came from X Academy, and it was made by a beast with superior intelligence, in fact, he created several neutron bombs three years ago to deal with a disaster at some point in the future, and today it finally came in handy.
The neutron bomb was in the shape of a ball, the shell was silvery-white metal, the diameter of the sphere was about one meter, and the diameter of the explosion was a full six kilometers!
According to Professor X's brain memories of the monster, the width of the wormhole was only a few hundred meters, so if nothing else, the power generated by the explosion of this neutron bomb was enough to destroy the wormhole.
"The gap in front of me that emits a faint blue light should be the wormhole mentioned by the professor!"
Wolverine looked at the gap in the ocean floor in front of him, and said happily to the four X-Men, anyway, since there is the gap described by Professor X, it undoubtedly verifies that the information provided by Professor X so far should be correct.
Hearing Wolverine's words, despite the harsh deep-sea environment in the depths, the expressions of the other four people immediately became happy.
If this mission to "destroy the wormhole" is successful, it means that they are the saviors who save the world, and the title of savior is very proud.
However, just as Coulis quickened his pace, about to drop the neutron bomb he was carrying on his shoulder into the gap in the bottom of the sea, suddenly a dull loud noise sounded out of nowhere, and the earth's crust shook faintly.
Seeing this, the five X-Men immediately stopped their progress and stood in place, looking around to see what was going on.
At this moment, a black tentacle extended from the gap in the bottom of the sea, followed by a second black tentacle, a third black tentacle, and a fourth black tentacle......
Finally, a giant octopus climbs up!
This is an unusually large octopus with a jet-black body and a rock-hard flesh that is nearly 300 meters tall!
The X-Men have also seen news reports about a global monster wave, which says that the largest monster on Earth is only 140 meters tall, and it is clear that this octopus monster is much more than that.
In fact, this octopus monster is the guard responsible for keeping the wormhole safe.
After all, the pioneer clan is a highly intelligent race, so naturally they are not stupid, and they are bound to arrange caretakers near such an important fortress as the wormhole that communicates the two worlds.
In fact, this black octopus monster is one of the very rare and powerful monsters among all the monsters on the planet Anteverse, which is equivalent to the level of a general among monsters, plus it is a water-attribute species itself, so it is very suitable to put it in a gap in the bottom of the sea to guard the wormhole.
"Shet! I promise, it's the biggest monster I've ever seen! Wolverine looked up at the black octopus monster with a deep horror in his heart.
"Even if it's a monster about 100 meters tall, all of our X-Men are not easy to destroy, and now this one is actually 300 meters tall, three times the size of ordinary monsters, and our hope of winning is even slimmer." Laser eyes also sighed, looking a little desperate.
"No, we don't need to fix it! We just need to be sure to drop the neutron bomb into the wormhole! The phantom cat deliberately accentuated the tone of his voice.
"What do you mean?" Wolverine didn't quite understand what Phantom Cat meant's meaning was, if he could light a cigar to smoke at this time, his mind would definitely be much clearer, but unfortunately, he couldn't light a flame in a seawater environment, after all, not everyone was as good as Ghost Rider.
"I mean, the five of us can split up, Colossus and I will drop the bullets, and the remaining three of you will be responsible for attracting the monster's attention and directing it as far away from the wormhole as possible! After successfully dropping the neutron bomb, the five of us retreated separately from five directions, and the monster could only chase at most one at the same time, and it might not be able to catch up! Phantom Cat recounted her plans.
"Oh, I see!" After listening to the Phantom Cat's plan, the other four X-Men roughly understood.
The Phantom Cat tugged at the corner of Colux's coat and said, "Alright, let's get started!" ”
So, the five of them split into two groups to go their separate ways, one to attract the attention of the black octopus monster, and the other to go to the wormhole to drop bullets.
"Hey! Ugly big octopus, look this way! ”
Cyclops yelled at the black octopus monster, deliberately provoking it.
The black octopus monster has a relatively low IQ, and when it heard someone shouting about it, it looked at it angrily.
Without further ado, Cyclops directly removed his quartz glasses, and his eyes released a strong red laser beam, sweeping the body of the black octopus monster. But this black octopus monster is 300 meters tall, its physical strength is like a rock, and its body is extremely strong, no matter how strong the red laser beam of Rao is laser eyes, it is difficult to have an effective killing effect on it. In fact, even if it stands still and lets the laser eye strafe, it is estimated that the laser eye has run out of energy, and it may not be able to kill it, not to mention that it is not a live target at all.
Attacked by Cyclopax, the black octopus monster immediately swam towards him, trying to shoot the creature who attacked it.
The Iceman plays nearby and uses his Ice Mist skills with all his might, freezing one of the monster's octopus claws, once again attracting its attention.
Wolverine is a daring artist, with a self-healing body and a pair of Erdman alloy claws, he plays melee combat with octopus monsters.
At the same time, the Phantom Cat pulled Colossus, who was carrying the neutron bomb, and rushed to the trench gap at full speed.
"We're here!" The phantom cat let go of her hand, and the figures of the two appeared on the crust at the edge of the gap.
Syllable!
Colossus pressed the countdown button for the neutron bomb and threw him into the wormhole at the bottom of the gap.
A 3-minute countdown began to be displayed on the neutron bomb, meaning that the five X-Men at the bottom of the sea had only 3 minutes to get out of the blast range.
"The neutron bomb has been dropped, everyone will withdraw separately!"
The Phantom Cat alerts Wolverine, Cyclops, and Iceman to the Black Octopus Monster through the communication device in her ear.
So, each of the five people chose a direction and began to retreat with all their staff.
And after chasing the black octopus monster for a certain distance, he stopped the pursuit, because he couldn't go too far from the wormhole, and his main duty was to guard the wormhole.
Soon, the five X-Men surfaced on the surface and climbed into the fighter cabin one after another through the ropes dropped by the fighter.
"How's it going, did it work?" As soon as he saw the five teammates on the mission of "destroying the wormhole" board the plane, the beast couldn't wait to ask.
Hearing this, the phantom cat looked at its watch, "The last five seconds." ”
For a while, there was silence in the cabin, and everyone was silent, silently counting down to five, four, three, two, and one in their hearts.
Everyone looked at the sea below through the glass window of the fighter plane, but after looking at it for a long time, they did not see the scene of the explosion on the bottom of the sea.
In any case, it was a neutron bomb with a diameter of six kilometers, and there was no reason why there was no sign at all!
Whether it's the muffled sound coming from the bottom of the sea, or the dazzling underwater fire, or the raging waves, etc., there must be a sign!
"Uh...... Could it be that the neutron bomb soaked in water and turned into a dud? ”
Wolverine guessed.
The faces of the other people invariably showed skeptical looks.
"Impossible! The neutron bomb I made can completely solve the problem of flooding! So rule out this assumption! Being questioned about his bomb-making skills, the beast seemed a little excited for a while.
Professor X looked solemn and said lightly, "Logan, you go down and find out what's going on, and by the way, see if the wormhole is intact." ”
"Okay, Professor." Hearing Professor X's command, Wolverine nodded, opened the cabin door, and jumped without hesitation.
Moments later, Wolverine swam to the surface again.
He climbed onto the rope that hung down from the fighter plane and climbed into the fighter.
In everyone's expectant eyes, Wolverine shook his head and told everyone: "I'm sorry to tell you that the wormhole has not been destroyed. ”
"What!?"
Colossus stood up from his seat, his face full of doubt, "But I obviously dropped that neutron bomb into the wormhole with my own hands!" ”
Wolverine just shrugged his shoulders at this, saying that he didn't know what caused it.
As everyone knows, in fact, that wormhole is not only a pure wormhole, but also has a special biometric function.
Thanos has deliberately set up a biometric function for the wormhole, so that only the Pioneer Clan, the rulers of the planet Anteverse, and the monsters they created can enter and exit freely.
In other words, only the DNA contained in the herald and the monsters can be identified by the wormhole!
As for the neutron bomb, when it was judged to be an illegal intruder by the wormhole, it was "strangled" by the power contained in the wormhole from the cosmic Rubik's Cube and reduced to a pile of powder.
