Chapter 23: The Assassin and the Hunter
After receiving the prompt from the Glory Terminal, Xu Ye was very excited: Now he can finally kill Professor X unscrupulously!
Although he is still unsure of what the rewards of hidden missions and special tasks will be, Xu Ye believes that as a reward for novice missions, the Tower of Glory will definitely not disappoint him.
However, at this moment, Xu Ye was not in a hurry to make a move, but continued to wrestle with the little naughty. With no longer the distraction to protect Bella (she evacuated as soon as she completed her mission), his pressure was reduced a lot, and he even felt a little in control of the pace of the battle.
Xu Ye was waiting for the best time! He noticed that the demon girl was almost unable to hold on under Scott's crazy attack.
The ancients said that the mourning soldiers will win.
Scott is now a typical mourning soldier, at this moment he has transformed all the grief of losing Jean into the strength of battle, desperate to attack, the only thought is to completely destroy the enemy in front of him!
Perhaps because of her physical exhaustion, the demon girl slowed down, and her agile body like an elf finally showed a flaw.
It was a fatal mistake!
The shockwaves that emanated from Scott's eyes finally caught up with the speed of the Witch, only to see that the two red shockwaves carried furious energy and bombarded her body fiercely. The next moment, the poor female mutant slashed through the air in a graceful arc and eventually crashed into a metal pillar.
"Raven!" was completely beyond Magneto's expectations, and he really couldn't figure out why Scott's combat power would suddenly explode.
Although Magneto doesn't have any special feelings for the Demon, as a leader (regardless of whether he's righteous or evil), he can't accept his subordinates being hurt like this in front of him, especially since this one is his most powerful assistant to date.
Magneto was furious, and he felt that his majesty had been greatly challenged.
I saw him hold it with one hand, and a large silver-white metal ingot detached from the ground, blocking the seriously injured demon girl.
Immediately afterward, the metal ingot, under Magneto's control, began to rapidly grow larger, thinner, and polished······ Eventually, when Scott's second wave of attacks hit, it completely turned into a giant metal mirror, reflecting all the shockwaves from Scott.
This time it was Scott's turn to be dumbfounded, with his speed, it would definitely be too late to dodge, so he had to hit it hard, only to see him face the reflected attack, and launch two shockwaves again.
In this way, four shockwaves collided and exploded in front of Scott, and Scott himself was swept away by the aftermath of the explosion, screaming and flying upside down, even knocking over Professor X's wheelchair along the way.
To say that Professor X is also quite unlucky, he was first attacked by Xu Ye and temporarily lost his psychic ability, and then Magneto removed the wheels of his wheelchair (the wheelchair is made of metal) and lost his mobility······
"Evan, John, it's time to retreat, Bella will be flying a helicopter to pick us up soon!" Magneto said to his men as he pinned Wolverine and Colossus to the ground with steel bars.
Except for the Demon's injury, Magneto's actions this time were generally smooth, and he was not interrupted at a critical moment like the last time, and then he just led his men to evacuate safely.
However, at this moment, Magneto was suddenly surprised to find that Xu Ye was gone!
It was supposed to be where Xu Ye was, but now there was only a rucksack and two desert eagles left, and Xu Ye himself had disappeared!
"Evan, what are you doing, hurry up and get out!"
Magneto realized that something seemed to be wrong: all the metal objects he had sensed on Xu Ye before had been taken off and thrown into that rucksack.
In other words, under Magneto's metal perception, Xu Ye was completely invisible.
"He's deliberately avoiding me, what the hell is he trying to do?"
Magneto casually restrained the little naughty who was rushing towards him because he had lost his goal, looked around, and his brows furrowed deeply:
Professor X temporarily lost his abilities and mobility, Scott and the Demon Girl lost their ability to fight due to injuries, Wolverine, Colossus and Little Naughty were fixed to the ground by him with steel bars, and the only ones who still had combat effectiveness were only Iceman Bobby and Fire Man John, but the battle between the two of them was the most intense.
Almost everyone lost their combat effectiveness, and Xu Ye hid silently, which made Magneto smell some kind of conspiracy!
Suddenly, a dull gunshot rang out from somewhere behind Magneto, and his keen combat instinct made him react immediately, and a bulletproof steel plate that was ten centimeters thick instantly bounced up and protected him behind him.
With a few "bangs, bangs", several bullets exploded on the steel plate, and suddenly, a thick cloud of smoke enveloped all the five meters around Magneto.
The all-plastic special smoke bullet, which Xu Ye harvested during the storming of Alcatraz Prison, is unfortunately the same as the plastic pistol, it is not a fate item, and can only be used in this world.
In the next moment, wearing Tony's smoke glasses, Xu Ye forcibly consumed 50 health points, teleported to Magneto, and before he could react, he sent the second ability elimination bullet into his head.
With a "boom", the metal plates used for defense and the metal blades used to fight back were scattered all over the ground, and Magneto could no longer control these things floating around him.
The mutant leader who was still dominating the storm just now has now, like Professor X, has temporarily become a weak old man.
"You got a plastic pistol? Looks like you've been hitting my attention from the beginning. Magneto said calmly. Although he has temporarily lost his ability, the bearing of the superior is still undiminished.
"Yes, Mr. Eric, I've put a lot of thought into this final hunt today. Xu Ye replied as he casually threw away the empty plastic pistol.
The gun had only six bullets in its magazine, the first five being plastic smoke grenades and the last one being an ability elimination bullet, all of which had now been fired.
"The Demonic Girl will be defeated by Scott, and you are the one who did it, right?"
"I'm just reminding her that if she turns into Jean, she might be able to disrupt Scott during the fight. ”
"Hehe, you are a good assassin, and even more so a good hunter!"
"Ironically, my dream since I was a child was to be a brave warrior and to move forward for love and justice. It's a pity that when I grew up, I realized that I was actually more suitable to be an unscrupulous villain. ”
Xu Ye said as he turned around and retrieved his backpack and two desert eagles from not far away.
"No, only the losing side is called the villain. Obviously, in the current situation, Charles and I are the villains, and you, will be the heroes. ”
Magneto was still standing in place, he knew that he had lost his abilities, and he had completely become fish on Xu Ye's chopping block, and any resistance was meaningless.
"Unfortunately, I'm not fit to be a hero, I like to be an assassin and a hunter. ”
Xu Ye looked back at the battle circle between Babi and John, and at this time their battle had already been divided: Babi the Iceman had been defeated, and John the Burning Man had exhausted the last trace of flame in his body.
Now, all the prey has fallen into the trap, and it is the turn of Xu Ye, the ultimate hunter, to harvest it.
All he has to do is kill people who have enough influence in the X-Men world to get a lot of money in the kill rewards (explosive materials, explosive equipment, etc.).
"Can you tell me your purpose?" Magneto asked suddenly.
"The world needs a war, so some people have to die. Speaking of which, Xu Ye put the pistol filled with live ammunition in his right hand and put it on Magneto's head.
However, instead of pulling the trigger, he was suddenly stunned. Immediately after, an expression as if he had been teased climbed up his face, which was quickly replaced by a thick reluctance, and finally just sighed and turned away from Magneto's side.
"Aren't you going to kill me?" asked Magneto, who was already planning to accept his fate, in confusion.
"No, the world needs you, and the future of mutants needs you, please live. Xu Ye made up a nonsense with a black face.
In fact, he really wants to kill Magneto, this is the most influential villain in the entire "X-Men" series, and if it explodes, it will definitely give a lot of good things.
It's a pity that just now, Xu Ye received a prompt from the Honor terminal:
[Please do not kill Magneto, otherwise you will not be able to claim the special mission rewards]
Although he was very unwilling, he could only let go of this big fish, who knew what the Tower of Glory would suddenly go crazy about, and it would suddenly protect the natives of the mission world.
Fortunately, in addition to Magneto, the Tower of Glory has no restrictions on Xu Ye's other prey, Professor X, Wolverine, Scott and Demon Girl, these are all extremely influential figures in the world of "X-Men", after you want to blow them up, the harvest will definitely make Xu Ye very satisfied, not to mention that he still has unlimited power to use.
