Chapter 9: Angels and Demons
Dawn, still dark,
The light of the Lord became angels,
He is the only light on earth.
.........
In my ears, I felt as if I heard the ethereal arias of church singing, and the high-pitched and empty melodious sound lingered endlessly.
The sun slanted into the giant hive arena, and under the soft light curtain, a pair of white wings flapped from the end of the clouds, spreading the light to the faces of everyone in the stands, illuminating their eyes.....
"Phew!"
Kurt spat hard with a disgusted face, shook off the long black Liuhai, and looked at the sky when he was ready to play, his roommate and friend who did not live in the sky flying and hovering in the sky, "Angel" Warren Worthington III.
"It's just that you play the most every time, and there are bells and whistles every day, so just change it to 'Flower Butterfly'..."
He bluntly complained about Warren's style of appearance, and the white eyes of his indigo face were rolled high.
The heiress of the wealthy Worthington family has nothing else to do with it, except that he likes to create this atmosphere and sense of ritual that is admirable and awe-inspiring.
No, at this moment, the parents of many participating mutants in the stands are drawing crosses on their chests, looking reverently at the blonde hair in the air, and the handsome and uncast teenager can't stop dancing his wings and hovering gracefully.
Warren's father, Mr. Worthington II, proudly introduced this to the next box that this was his son, and waved his hand in the air.
Wow...
Warren picked up the snow-white wings that spread out nearly five meters on both sides and fell straight down, landed on one knee in the center of the ring perfectly, slowly got up solemnly, and spread his hands and wings violently, and finally felt the warm applause and cheers of the audience around him, and saluted elegantly.
"I... It's the sky—"
"Worthington! You're flying wrong, it's the ring next door... "
"Oooh.... I'm sorry, teacher... Sorry, hehe... I'm in a hurry to land."
Before he could finish his opening remarks, the referee on the field unceremoniously reminded Warren that he had landed in the wrong ring, and his deep and handsome face was dyed with a blush, and he smiled and flew to the other side of the arena.
"Hey, don't say you live in the same room with me in the future, don't say you know me, oh and, don't say it's from the Chaoying Academy, hum... Young Master Ben can't afford to lose this person!" Kurt teleported to the corner of Warren's arena, tilted his head and said in disgust, and even habitually pulled one of Warren's feathers and naturally picked up his ears.
"Shhhh It hurts, you're jealous! Hmph, demons in the shadows, how can they understand the glory of our angels!"
Warren pompously curled a strand of blonde hair hanging down from his forehead with his fingers, and his handsome face twitched for a moment, and then he pretended to be arrogant and ridiculed the "Night Stalker" Young Master Kurt.
The two have slept in the same class, have been friends for many years, and have long been accustomed to teasing and scolding each other.
"The glory of your '' should go home and take care of it yourself, if you can mix it up to now, it will be considered your kid's luck, that spirit butterfly is not easy to deal with, just your pair of broken wings, she can cut it with two swords!"
Although Kurt Howlett can't stop hurting his good brother, he actually cares deeply about Warren's game.
"Angel" Warren does not have too good fighting ability except for barely surpassing ordinary people's physical fitness and a pair of powerful wings.
Although the space in the arena has been spliced from twelve small rings to three large rings, it is still small for Warren, which is very unfavorable for his soaring dive.
"It's okay, it's a big deal to admit defeat early, Qin is next to me, let me tell you, two days ago, my father's research team set up for me brought back a new blood analysis report, and the content of metal elements in my body is getting higher and higher, hum, I wonder if this young master will be a pair of steel wings after the second mutation in the future!"
Warren and Kurt were talking to each other, and the spirit butterfly on the other side of the ring jumped up, rolling his eyes and waiting impatiently.
"It's good to know, your dad already has enough capital to brag about, remember not to be reckless, I have to play—"
Burst!
As Kurt was talking, he saw a tall and mighty little giant standing prominently in another ring a hundred meters away.
His opponent in this round, Peter Rasputin, was already waiting on the field, and spoke
Before it fell, Kurt exploded into a cloud of blue-black smoke and disappeared.
.........
"Here it is, sorry Mr. Referee."
The little blue devil raised his hand to greet the referee on the field, nodded to Peter from a distance, glanced at the game-specific cold weapons placed under the stage a few times, and finally shook his head, having no choice.
"Colossus" Peter has an extremely peculiar mutation ability, and is a powerful mutant who is rarely designated as an alpha potential level in the physical transformation system.
He was able to convert the entire tissue of his body into a steel-like substance, but not really a steel alloy, but an organic carbon steel similar to osmium, whose hardness had been tested by the academy long ago, second only to Erdman and primordial vibranium.
It is comparable to the special organic diamond constitution of the White Queen and Laura, but has never had the opportunity to distinguish too much.
Under normal circumstances, Steel Flix already has the strength and physique beyond ordinary humans, and when he mutates, he can improve his physical fitness in an all-round way, and even does not need to breathe and eat, but no longer has all the smell, taste and touch of human beings.
Although Peter could theoretically remain "tempered" permanently, Headmaster Emma Howlett has suggested that he would then gradually lose his feelings and feelings as a human being, and eventually become a thoughtless steel man. Honk!
As the roar of the match sounded, the battle between "Nightcrawler" and "Colossus" was watched by a large number of people, and James was curious to see how his youngest grandson Kurt would deal with Peter Rasputin's tricky opponent.
"Shhhh It's hard for me now, it would be easy if I could take the Edelman Short Knife with me, but this little Peter, hey! If it wasn't for me, maybe he wouldn't have woken up."
James shook his head slightly, looking at Peter, who suddenly turned into a silver-gray organic carbon steel state on the field, like the ultimate aesthetic creation of a human metal sculpture, towering majestically in the sun, looking at his opponent in silence, full of oppression.
"If it's Kurt, even if he holds the Edman Alloy Weapon, he can't hurt this child, Edmankin and Vibranium do have the hardness to break through the steel body, but this requires a certain amount of strength and speed to do so."
"That's... Dad, how can this game be counted, the iron pimple can't be beaten, but he can't touch my Kot!"
Raven walked from the back row to the front and sat down, ignoring Asazzo's grinning and flattering appearance, and squeezed into the middle of James and Eric's seats on the other side, and took Daddy's arm.
"The easiest way to do this is, of course, to use the rules and take the opponent off the field, or... It depends on whether our little Cotter can open his brains and be bold and careful...... Ahem, Raven, what kind of awkward have you and Asazzo been having lately~"
James lowered his voice as he spoke, and whispered to Revane in a somewhat embarrassed voice...
A government organization that has subdued the United States and the world, hunted and sealed the demon gods of hell, beheaded and sealed the ancestor of mutants, and can almost be said to dominate the human transcendent world, still has to worry about some common things for his children.
But James Howlett likes the state of life in the past few years very much, he likes such a humane world.
.........
"Master Kurt, you... Don't you attack it?"
Colossus Peter hummed in a low voice, his voice even thicker after changing his form, even faintly with the sound of fine crumbling foam of metal rubbing, and it seemed that he did not intend to take the initiative to make any attacks.
"Peter, we are all classmates, we don't always have to be young masters, if you call Warren like that, he will be very happy. I think there's only one way to deal with you, but... I'm afraid it will really hurt you."
Kurt's three thick blue fingers rubbed his chin carefully, and his long blue tail flickered leisurely behind him, and his body shape flashed from time to time between pacing
Not to the head.
"Master Kurt, come on, if it's really dangerous, I won't let you do it."
Peter slammed his chest, the metal clash was terrifying, his height and physique seemed to be larger after his transformation, and the delicate and delicate muscle lines were all over his body, and his body was very flexible and not hard and dull at all.
"Hey... Then I'm coming!"
Boom!
Steel's sharp turn back and fist, he had not practiced any killing martial arts boxing, but purely relying on a huge force, he forced out a sonic boom, but only crushed a cloud of blue-black smoke.
Kurt had already done a few flashes in an instant, and the clump shrunk back on Peter's back, which was as broad as a grinding disc.
"Okay, Peter, it's not bad, it's usually clumsy, right?"
Puff puff puff...
The big steel hand grabbed behind him, but only a cloud of smoke and dust flashed at Coloss's waist, shoulders, and even the top of his head and between his legs.
The sturdy and nimble figure of the "Nightcrawler" on this steel giant more than two meters tall, slick like a fish, laughed and yelled:
"Come Peter, you haven't had a chance yet... Heaven for it!"
Burst!
A large cloud of blue-black smoke and dust burst out of the field, and the two disappeared at the same time, and the entire field could not even be found in the air more than 100 meters high.
James smiled and looked up at the boundless sky, and everyone around him learned to look up, but he couldn't see anything, far beyond people's eyes.
Thousands of meters in the air, Coloss's head fell straight down, and Kurt was still clinging to his back, shouting against the fierce wind:
"Peter! Go down and admit defeat and I'll take you back, this height and your weight acceleration, the ring is mixed with vibranium, you may really fall to your death!" "Hehehe... Young Master Kurt, you see, I don't admit defeat, and you have to take me well."
Kurt suddenly felt his tail tighten, and the clumsy Colossus had already grabbed his slender tail, and then grabbed Kurt's arm with his backhand, so that he no longer worried about falling to the ground. "Ugh... Peter, why do you think it's useful to catch me? Hehe, are you used to being teleported when you touch my body? No matter how strong your grip is, it can... I can't hold a cloud of air!"
Burst!
Colossus clenched his fists tightly, but the smoke and dust in his hands disappeared, and his silver-gray eyes instantly turned black......
Rumble!
The actual combat ring with a certain vibranium casting was crashed down, and dozens of square meters of solid alloy floor tiles were radially twisted and deformed, and the deep pit in the middle of the field was broken.
"Colossus" Peter Rasputin was silent, dead or alive.
