Chapter 69: The Dark Curtain
In an ancient Greek-style marble palace, a middle-aged man knelt in silence in front of the burning flames in the palace in the center of the hall. Behind him were a dozen hooded men dressed in white thorns, and beyond him were countless masked killers dressed in black.
"Are you all ready?" Although the man's appearance is no different from that of ordinary middle-aged European men, his old voice and eyes that have gone through vicissitudes of life let people know that his years are definitely not only thirty or forty years.
"Master, everything is ready." The answer was the witcher Haas, who was dressed in white thorns and was one of the few leaders.
"Where's Bane?"
"Bane is eager to return to the organization all the time, and Bain is ready to receive orders from the organization."
"Well, in a month. I want to see the destruction of Gotham City! The middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes, the blood belonging to the forerunner was boiling, and the evil would not be tolerated.
"Yes! Guru! "All the Assassins curtsied, and the Master was not only the leader of the Order, but also their mentor in life. As voices disappeared from the palace, the Master took out his equipment from the side chambers, the Hidden Blade, the Bow, and the Musket, the Legacy Artifact of the Master Assassin.
"When others are blindly seeking truth and truth"
"Remember—everything is empty!"
"When others are bound by law and morality,"
"Remember—all is possible!"
The Hidden Blade was ejected, and the Master Assassin gave a determined gaze. "Bruce, I've already given you a chance. But Gotham City is indeed incorrigible, and Gotham deserves to be destroyed! ”
Lex Luthor watched Superman flying around the Metropolis, and a vicious plan was born in his mind. He absolutely cannot allow Superman to interfere with the normal operation of human society so openly and brightly, and the fate of mankind should be in his own hands.
"You're to blame, Clark. If you want to blame you, it's too high-profile. Humanity doesn't need a god to guide them! ”
When Superman was a Texas farm boy, Luthor knew him. They were even friends for a time. But everything will change, and the superhero who longs to be like Captain America is dead. Now a new, more powerful Lex Luthor is born.
As the smartest man in the DC Universe, Lex Luthor's schemes are more vicious and ruthless than in the movies. Because he knows Superman very well, that farm kid with a bad heart. Even if he has the power to catch the stars and the moon and change the world, Clark is still the same Clark.
Dressed in a white lab coat, Lex Luthor entered a secret laboratory, where several tattered Kryptonian ships and Zod's corpse were lying quietly. What's even more remarkable is that Kryptonite stones of different colors are neatly placed in glass bottles. These were collected by Lex Luthor from the town where Superman grew up.
In addition to being an entrepreneur, Lex Luthor is also a scientist with superhuman intelligence. In order to deal with Superman, he has been preparing for a long time, although Kryptonite is useful. But Superman, who has been targeted by Kryptonite many times, how can he be defenseless against Kryptonite. Even because of this, Lex Luthor launched a new plan.
"General Zod, since you were killed by Superman, I think you definitely want to take revenge yourself." With an evil grin, Lex Luthor picked up a scalpel made of green kryptonian stone and walked into General Zod's corpse.
In Osborne's lab, Dr. Kenos is tweaking El's clone. A clone that combines the abilities of Iceman, Phoenix Girl, Wolverine, and Phantom Cat, the ice control of the Iceman, the telekinesis of the Phoenix Girl, the healing ability of Wolverine, and the teleportation of the Phantom Cat are perfectly fused by Kenos. However, except for the Iceman's ability to be an alpha-level existence, all other abilities have been reduced to the third-level beta level. However, this also made El overjoyed, and the beta-level mutants can already be regarded as entering the ranks of the strong.
"But boss, because of the extremely hasty manufacturing time of this clone, the genes in its body are still very unstable. I'm afraid it won't be long before it crashes automatically. Kenos said, debugging the instrument.
"Don't get in the way, the reason for this clone is to get the many mutant genes it has stored from Stryker's hands as soon as possible. The identity of the mutant is only to join the X-Men side or the mutant brotherhood side more smoothly. El waved his hand, indicating that it didn't matter.
The clone itself is a consumable. It's not that El looks down on mutants, time travel, mind control, immortality, reversal of cause and effect, the strength of mutants can be described as very rebellious. But correspondingly, their shortcomings are also big and staggering. Mutants look incredibly powerful, Professor X can kill everyone on Earth in an instant, and Magneto can manipulate the entire Earth's magnetic field.
But there is one thing that must not be overlooked, that is, the abilities of mutants are derived from genes, and as long as the genes are locked, mutants are as harmless as bugs. Besides, mutants are nothing more than a creation of the cosmic gods. If it could really defy the sky, the Cosmic Celestial Gods would have killed all the mutants a long time ago. Success is in the X gene, and defeat is also in the X gene. That's what El says about mutants.
Hank is leading a new generation of X-Men who are fully prepared, and the Black Hawk fighters are also starting to be launched. Tightly hugged little naughty, El could feel her trembling. The little naughty herself also wants to participate in the rescue of Professor X, and when she was in X Academy, Professor X took care of her very much.
But El resolutely stopped her, one is for the safety of the little naughty, once he participates in this operation, there is no doubt that the little naughty will definitely enter the eyes of some well-intentioned people. Not everyone cares about El or the Stoke family. The second reason is that this operation will involve the clones of El's Consciousness Master, although others may not be able to perceive El's identity. But as a little naughty who grew up with El, El can't guarantee that he won't be recognized.
Just as the X-Men set sail, at the Osborne enterprise, a tall man with blue hair and red eyes stepped out of the nutrition. Wear a weapon that has been prepared for a long time and was made by Osborne Enterprises.
The blue-haired man, El's clone began to move towards the Hoover Dam, except for the black NO.1 on his chest, the clone was exactly the same as an ordinary person. However, this clone can't exert all of El's strength, there is no Force, no small universe, only abilities from genes. After actually feeling the mutant's body, El realized why Professor X and Magneto insisted that mutants would be the future of humanity.
