Chapter 70: The Old King and the New Emperor (3)
Time seemed to stand still, all movements were slowed down countless beats, and the flapping wings of the birds became traceable.
The Ancient One mages who were watching, Emma, Steve, Asazzo, and even Bucky and Pai Huang in the distance had already stopped fighting, just like that, looking at the crumbling palace walls, blue-gray heads leaping high.
Apocalypse's consciousness froze for only a moment, the headless body still moved freely, he reached out and grabbed the skull, but was clutched by the blood-red energy arm and couldn't move.
During the struggle, the muscles of both arms swelled strangely and became a lump, and then exploded!
"Hmph... Want to run? γ
Apocalypse forced James back a few meters with the impact of exploding flesh, and the head and the torso that was rapidly regenerating arms fought together with the help of telekinesis.
Swish!
Two half-molten "Setolak Crimson Chains" were thrown out from between the energy arms behind James, and at the moment of the apocalypse, they flew around his neck, and the two of them exploded into a cloud of blue smoke and disappeared completely...
β¦β¦β¦
"Dad, Dad... The ancient mutant who brought us here could... The mutant who can level the earth with a wave of his hand, can't beat this gentleman? He just seemed to be been... Beheaded? γ
Among the countless mutants watching from the distance in Intramuros Square, a little Asian girl who looked like she was of mixed race pulled her father's hand and asked in a thick British accent.
Captain Braddock, the strongest in the field of supernatural powers in the United Kingdom, known as the "Sword of the Kingdom", took his daughter's shoulders around his daughter, looked at the two figures that completely disappeared into the sky, and muttered in distraction
"Becky darling... So it seems, that gentleman. . . I've heard of that gentleman, but I always thought that the strongest mutant in the world was Magneto Eric Lansell, but I didn't expect..."
"Daddy! I already have a "real" name, we mutants only have our own power titles, don't forget that my name is "Spirit Butterfly"!"
The little girl held her father in her right hand, looked down at the palm of her left hand that was burning with a dazzling purple red light, and the dense energy streamer slowly condensed into a long cone-like shape, which was extremely stable and condensed.
"Hee-hee... In the future, I will have a long knife and cut off my head. γ
β¦β¦β¦
"Howlett... Let go! I recognize your power! γ
Forests, seas, cities, snowfields......
James finally keenly sensed that the direction that Apocalypse wanted to teleport after retrieving the severed head was no longer the range of the Pyramid Royal City, but far enough away that he could not keep up in an instant.
He threw out the crimson chain condensed by the secret technique, grabbing his body almost at the same time as the apocalypse disappeared, and the place where the two reappeared was already tens of thousands of kilometers away,
With the continuous flickering of the apocalypse, various landforms and environments flashed one after another between the continents of the entire earth, and came into view.
"Huh? Don't you call me me?"
James stood up with his bone blade to resist the shockwaves that kept shooting from Apocalypse's palms, and the two were always tightly connected by crimson chains.
"You know the evolution of civilization in the modern world, and you also see the technological and cultural progress of human beings, but none of this can change the delusion that you still harbor when you were in a slave society!"
Rumble!
The two fell into the boundless deep Atlantic Ocean, under the sea, the fiery energy between each other kept steaming the sea, and in another moment, the cliffs of the Himalayas were smashed through......
"Do you know what I've seen? What have I been through! You still don't know anything about the reality of this world..."
Bang, the apocalypse took James high in the sky again, even far above the stratosphere and mesosphere, and the sun's rays above his head were as blazing as he had never been, almost to the edge of the fugitive layer.
Suddenly, it was as if he had taken off a mask, a mask like the ancient Egyptian pharaohs who shaped the mystery and majesty in front of their people.
He abandoned the dry and empty title, and was awakened to an unstoppable arrogance.
Finally, see you after thousands of years
Knowing and understanding history, as well as many unknown areas, Jean Sabah Noor said with calm and wisdom in his eyes for the first time:
"You're right, Mr. Howlett, the advancement of human civilization, especially the progress of science, has given me a new understanding of some of my own powers..."
Swish!
There was no sound anymore, and even James felt that the sharp sound in his ears at this moment was also an illusion, and he actually saw a blue and white porcelain-like blue sphere quietly existing in the boundless darkness,
The distant stars are no longer blurred, and the sun... Many, much bigger...
There were gray-white sand and countless craters under their feet, and they could no longer breathe a trace of air in their noses, and even the two of them let go of each other at the same time, feeling the strange lightness of their bodies, their chests rising and falling violently, and the biting cold and burning pain of their skin continued to come.
En Saba Noor teleported to the moon with James Howlett.
They all tried their best to open their mouths, but they didn't make a sound, and their bodies gradually ignited with energy.
With their super physique, self-healing ability, and majestic life energy, both of them have the ability to survive in a vacuum.
γβ¦ Atmosphere... Protects the planet..."
James frowned, he realized that this was the other party using mental and psychic powers to communicate with him, and although Apocalypse did not have the mental damage or control power of Emma or Charles, he obviously had some such abilities.
He watched the apocalypse suddenly fall silent, the look between his eyes was no longer so empty and boring, like a statue of an inanimate god, and he spread his arms and pointed to the earth with some ancient etiquette.
"The sun... Many mutants who can do the release of energy-like energy have a certain amount of environmental energy absorption, just like grass and tree life, most of our sources of power come from the sun, after I was sealed underground, the Egyptians shaped "La"..."
With his lips closed, he paced on the surface of the moon, with one hand behind his back like a professor, and pointed to the earth with the other, and continued to "say":
γβ¦ Helios, Apollo, Xihe, the myths related to the sun are enduring, and the power of the sun that we can receive on the surface of the earth is not only 150 million kilometers away, but also through the layers of the atmosphere, shielding the vast majority of life from all kinds of solar rays, and finally leaving a meager amount of energy..."
James adjusted to the vacuum, looked at the way Apocalypse talked, and realized that he was much better off than he was.
Purely relying on his extremely strong vitality and super physique to survive in a vacuum, James can go more than ten hours without ingesting oxygen, but he has not really gotten rid of human dependence on basic energy and hydrogen and oxygen elements.
And since En-Saba Noor has an energy-absorbing ability similar to that of the "Black Emperor", he can completely change the source of the energy he ingests to a certain extent, and the blue-gray skin on his body is faintly shining, as if it is different from the inside out.
"Mr. Howlett, it's okay, I know you can't communicate with me at the moment, I just want to tell you one last time, when there is no atmosphere to obstruct you......
The moon was trembling at his feet, and James couldn't hear anything, but he could feel not only the tremors of the ground, but also the ripples of the surrounding vacuum space under the pull of some kind of energy.
"ββββ solar wind! The real solar wind will give me infinite strength! γ
The voice of the apocalypse rumbled in his mind, and the surrounding points of light all disappeared in an instant, followed by the white light that engulfed everything, and a pure white pillar of light flooded James's body, and the entire surface of the moon was ploughed out of a deep ravine tens of thousands of kilometers long,
People on the earth who observe the moon with telescopes can see the white surface of the moon with the naked eye, and a thick black line is drawn in an instant......
"Thank you, Mr. Howlett, for the evolution of modern civilization and the ever-advancing technological culture of mankind..." The power of civilization, the power of civilization... Thank you for telling me this..."
N Saba Noor turned his back and no longer looked at the pillar of pure white light that was still burning fiercely, and he thought to himself as he looked at the earth with his hands down,
now
The apocalypse finally realized that what was most poisoned in the depths of his soul was not the hatred and unwillingness that had been humiliated and enslaved... It's the sound of thousands of people kneeling down on the mountain and shoutingβmy God!
Hiss...
"Huh?"
The blue-gray ears moved, and the apocalypse turned his head sharply, staring behind him in disbelief,
The sound of burning fire "sounded" in the vacuum, not only from the mental and spiritual level, as if it was really free from the physical rules that there is no medium and cannot transmit sound.
He watched as the blazing white pillar of light, which had condensed all his power and delayed long enough, gradually dissipated as the incomparable solar energy absorbed and gathered was gradually dissipated, leaving behind a humanoid fire on the deep pit of the lunar surface!
"Ho-ahh
A heavy, hoarse sigh rang out in Apocalypse's mind, and the fire gradually reflected a figure, but it was not James Howlett's appearance, but a huge skeleton.
On the body of the flame skeleton, the vibranium metal melted into liquid by the apocalypse and gradually assembled into a pair of breastplates, but the strange growth spread to the entire shoulders and limbs,
Under the scorching flames, silver-white spikes pierced out from the shoulders, arms, knees, and even the insteps of the feet, and the chest was forged into a hideous wolf head!
Bone claws pierced from the fist of the skeleton, but the claws grew longer and longer, almost touching the ground, no longer as delicate and delicate as they once were, but covered with rough knots and jagged barbs of bone.
It's like a butcher of hell cutting bones and torturing people!
The skull with orange-red flames burned with different lengths of bone cones pierced from the top of the skull, like a crown!
"Well... Sabah... Noor... Did I tell you that the power of regeneration is extreme, and it is really immortal..."
Apocalypse listened to the skeleton giant as if he was communicating with himself in the spiritual realm, and it was like hearing the hoarse roar between the sharp teeth of the skeleton's face opening and closing, and the red upper body was cold to the bones in an instant!
"Follow me, go back, Earth..."
Bang!
The flame skull's claws instantly pierced Apocalypse's chest and abdomen, gently picking him up, and like that, the infinite hellfire burned...
Gallop back to Earth.
Boom Boom Boom ......
Whether it is a meteorite floating in space or any substance, there is no longer a way to stop the existence of this orange-red line of fire, as it approaches the atmosphere, under the extreme high-speed friction, the flesh and blood behind the apocalypse are burning and peeling off.
The flaming skeleton roared wildly, like a meteorite crashing into the earth, falling straight down in the direction of the Egyptian Apocalypse royal capital, and the raging hellfire burned from the chest of the Apocalypse, when you could see the pyramid palaces standing on the earth,
All that was left of En Saba Noor was a spine and skull stuck in his vicious claws, and the blazing flames burned all the way.
β¦β¦β¦
"Quick! Look! What's that, meteorite? Fire Meteor!"
Everyone in the Intramuros Square watched as the lead-ash canopy was burned away, a blinding line of fire was drawn, and finally...
James Howlett, possessed by the Hellfire, was like the King of Purgatory, falling in front of the towering megalithic throne of the Apocalypse nearly dozens of meters high.
Holding the apocalypse skull burning with the flames of hell in one hand, the flames burning in the hollow skull eye hole, looking at this vast land and hundreds of thousands of people mercilessly.
Only one voice from his mouth flashed back from the distance, and it lasted for a long time...
"The old king, dead."
