Chapter 58: The Scarlet Witch
Under the influence of illusion, Scott mistook Yuriko for Alec, and he brandished the Edelman alloy sword in his hand and attacked Yuriko frantically, completely ignoring the continuous sound of Jean and Auroro.
Yuriko has also been modified by Stryker, but she is similar to Wolverine's strength, only possessing the Edman Alloy Skeleton and regenerative abilities. She didn't have Scott's ability to teleport or shoot red laser beams from her eyes, and she was quickly scarred by Scott's torrential attacks, and she had to rely on her recovery ability to survive.
On the other side, Alec did not rush to pursue, but walked behind Jean and gently hugged her from behind.
Then he pointed at Scott and whispered in Jean's ear, "Am I not as good as a madman in your eyes?" ”
Jean bowed her head and said nothing.
Alec knew what Jean was struggling with, and he smiled and explained, "Jean, Raven and I didn't have what you imagined. Even if I really like Auroro that much, I will pursue it in an open and honest way, rather than having Raven imitate Auroro. ”
"Explain it however you want...... Raven is dead anyway. ”
Alec smiled mysteriously: "Dead? Not necessarily. ”
"Jean, you underestimate me too much, since I said that I want to resurrect Raven, I will definitely resurrect her...... I'll admit, in some ways, I'm a jerk. But Jean, there's one thing, Scott can never compare to me. ”
"Which point?"
"As long as it's something I like, I'll never let go."
Jean asked softly, "What about me?" What are you going to do if I reject you? ”
Alec chuckled and replied, "Then I'll kill all the men who dare to approach you." ”
……
The two chatted for a while, and Scott finally got rid of the influence of the illusion and stopped attacking Yuriko.
He knew he was being tricked.
This made Scott's face filled with shame.
Especially after he found out that it was Yuriko who was desperately trying to stop him, he immediately felt extremely guilty.
Half of the credit for his escape from William Stryker goes to Yuriko.
Things have to start with Alkali Lake, Stryker catches Charles, but because of Alec's relationship, he can't get the brainwave intensifier. Also because of Alec, Jean sneaked away to New York, and the pace of the X-Men's attack was much slower - which gave Stryker time to transform him, and of course, he was also controlled by Stryker. Lake Alkali is then breached by the X-Men and the Mutant Brotherhood, and Stryker abandons all of his men and flees with him and Jensen.
Shortly after this, he meets Yuriko, who has come to seek revenge on Stryker.
Under Stryker's control, Scott fights Yuriko, who escapes with Jensen. Yuriko had a chance to pursue, but she thought about it for a long time and finally chose to help Scott first. By the time a big battle between the two ended, Stryker, the old fox, didn't know where to flee.
…………
Scott turned his head with a grim face, and happened to see Alec holding the piano and talking and laughing softly.
Alec's sarcastic gaze, accompanied by Jean's laughter, made him feel like a clown.
Scott's eyes were red.
But this time, not because of ability, but because of anger.
He was tempted to shoot two laser beams straight through, but he eventually controlled the urge.
"Jean, get out of the way, I don't want to hurt you."
Jean frowned: "Scott, you're not Alec's opponent......"
Scott was furious.
He teleported behind Alec, and the sword in his hand was slashed again.
But what he slashed was still a phantom.
For natives who don't understand spells, the spells of the illusion system are really useful, and Alec is almost invincible just by relying on the lowest [Phonographic Illusion]. Looking at the angry Scott, he threw out the [Dimensional Anchor] again, blocking Scott's spatial ability. Then, a dark green flame was thrown out by him and slammed into Scott's face.
- Corrosive Fire!
This is the most terrifying single kill among the mid-level spells.
Scott's face was half corroded by the eerie green fire in the blink of an eye.
He fell silently.
Jean and Auroro don't look away, they can't bear to look at this tragic scene again.
Alec smiled contemptuously.
After being transformed, Scott did become a lot stronger, but he still didn't have the ability to resist spells, which was his fatal wound and the reason why Alec never took Scott seriously. With his regenerative ability, Scott can resist burning flames and break through lava cages, but he can't deal with corrosive fire, and this continuous damage happens to be the nemesis of regenerative ability.
He walked over to Scott and summoned a short-range teleportation circle from the tome in his hand.
He was going to throw Scott in the Island City Prison and then concoct it.
But his plan fell through again.
A burst of red energy appeared, shattering his circle.
Alec looked up in surprise, and a tall brown-haired girl came into his sight, and behind the girl, Charles, Wolverine, Nicole and others were looking at him with angry faces, and the ruined academy behind him.
He sensed that some of the big bald heads were angry.
Charles took a breath and asked, "Alec, maybe you should explain to me why I've only been out for half a day, and Xavier's Academy for Gifted Children is only half a seat left?" ”
Alec pursed his lips and admitted very dryly: "I demolished it!" ”
Charles's face was ugly: "Reason? ”
"Scott wants to kill me, and I certainly don't want to let him go!"
Charles set his sights on Scott, and at this time, the corrosive fire had burned his head into a skeleton, and even the silver Edman alloy skull showed signs of corrosion.
"You killed him?"
"Of course!"
Charles was furious.
"Just because he's after Jean?"
Alec glanced at Charles, "Isn't that enough?" ”
Charles's voice was a little angry: "That's why you killed Scott?" ”
The smell of gunpowder between the two intensified.
Jean felt that something was wrong, but she didn't know how to defend it.
Charles stared at Alec, but he couldn't find any guilt on Alec's face.
He was finally disappointed.
"You're crazy."
A mountain-like spiritual force struck Alec.
Alec had been on guard, and when Charles appeared, he had been injecting spiritual power into the prying eyes of the Helllord.
The eyeballs on the ring, open again.
A scarlet lightning bolt shot out of the eyeball.
Two spiritual energies clashed in mid-air.
The red lightning shattered, but Charles's mental power was also repulsed, and he let out a cold snort, and two streaks of crimson blood flowed from his nostrils. Alec's mental strength was much worse, even if he prepared early, he was still at a disadvantage in this encounter, he felt like a hammer had been smashed on his head, his eyes were full of Venus, and his ears were buzzing, as if all his organs had left him.
Mental clash is an extremely dangerous thing.
In many cases, there is no winner in such a battle at all, and the losing side is naturally destroyed in will and becomes an idiot; But the winning side is usually a miserable victory, and it can't escape the result of mental trauma.
A crimson mark appeared on the back of Charles's hand.
This is a rune that symbolizes a contract.
The contract's counterattack caused Charles double damage, and he felt a knife stab him in the head and stir it inside. The pain caused him to scream and force him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
