The only player in the Marvel universe.

Chapter 210 Now all excuses are gone.

Thud! Thud! ! ...

The muffled, drum-like thuds continued to echo throughout the exhibition hall.

Those nearby couldn't bear to look closely at the sounds; the scene was far too brutal.

They didn't know what had gotten into Du Mu, but he suddenly started beating the saber-toothed tiger mercilessly. His fists pounded the tiger with dull thuds, and no matter how much the tiger struggled, it was no use. The saber-toothed tiger was beaten into a toothless state.

Despite this, none of them stepped forward to persuade them.

What if Du Mu gets carried away with the fighting and takes them along too?

At first, the saber-toothed tiger could still roar a couple of times, but after taking more than a dozen heavy blows, it gradually became nothing but twitching, and its will was shattered into pieces.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Du Mu immediately released his spiritual power and poured it into the saber-toothed tiger's brain. He easily seized control of the body without encountering much resistance.

The saber-toothed tiger swayed to its feet, standing there blankly, like a marionette.

We've captured another Saber-toothed Tiger Beast!

Wade exclaimed in surprise, "Dude, did you beat him into submission?"

"What do you mean by 'subduing'? It's clearly mind control, just like Charles's abilities. I'm only a tiny bit worse than him."

Du Mu was displeased. He was a very skilled player, and these words made it sound like he could only crush opponents with sheer numbers.

The others chuckled, their faces full of disbelief.

This doesn't resemble mind control at all; it's pure physical control, without a trace of mental power involved!

After dealing with the saber-toothed tiger, Du Mu used the master key to open the cell and release Scott, Jean, and Orolo, who had been imprisoned.

The three looked somewhat embarrassed. Being controlled by their opponents right from the start was truly shameful. However, they quickly adjusted their mindset and secretly vowed to perform well and show the style that X-Men should have.

Without Magneto's henchmen blocking their way, the group quickly found the stairs leading upwards and successfully reached the head of the Statue of Liberty.

Looking up, you can see a huge hole in the top of the Statue of Liberty, through which you can see the torch platform high above.

It's no surprise that this was Magneto's doing.

For this mutant Zhang San, destroying cultural relics is probably just the least significant item on his list of crimes.

Looking out at the night view of New York Harbor, Wade exclaimed, "Wow, this is my first time inside the bronze Statue of Liberty, it's amazing!"

"By the way, have you heard of those conspiracy theories online? Some say the Statue of Liberty is actually a missile silo underneath, others say it's a giant memory eraser, but I prefer one theory: it's supposedly a giant robot sent by the French, meant to attack America at a crucial moment..."

'

Bang!

Before he could finish speaking, young Logan suddenly punched Wade in the face, forcefully interrupting his nonsense.

Everyone else expressed their delight, saying that this guy really could talk too much.

But young Logan didn't stop, continuing to pummel Wade with punch after punch, slamming him hard to the ground.

"Never mind, Logan."

"There's no need. Let him go this time."

"It's no big deal. Give me some face and let it go."

"6

""

Everyone was verbally encouraging them, but not a single person moved forward.

"Get out of here! I can't control myself!" Young Logan squeezed out the words through clenched teeth.

Everyone immediately realized that young Logan had been controlled by Magneto, which was why he suddenly attacked Wade beside him.

But why did they seem to be quite happy when young Logan beat up Wade?

After taking down Wade, the young Logan stiffly turned around and faced Du Mu, clearly regarding him as his next target.

Du Mu clenched his fist: "No, Logan, we're teammates, I can't bring myself to hurt you."

"I didn't want this to happen either!"

Logan roared and charged forward uncontrollably, his fist aimed straight at Du Mu's face.

Bang! !

With a muffled thud, young Logan was sent flying backward, crashing through the thick bronze inner wall of the Statue of Liberty and leaving a hole shaped like the Chinese character "木" (wood).

Du Mu clenched his fist, his face a mixture of grief and indignation: "Don't blame me, Logan, it's all Magneto's fault."

Everyone:

'

""

You can't see a trace of reluctance on their part.

Just then, several steel bars and broken metal decorative strips, as if manipulated by an invisible hand, shot from the air toward their location!

Biu! Biu! Biu!

Scott immediately reached for the button on the side of his glasses, and beams of bright red laser light shot out from his eyes, precisely striking the metal object that was hurtling through the air.

At the same time, Qin released a psychic barrier that enveloped everyone and blocked the few metal fragments that managed to get through.

However, the number of metal objects that attacked was simply too great.

Scott's fingers were practically smoking from pressing so hard, yet numerous metal fragments still managed to breach his defenses, crashing heavily against the psychic barrier and creating ripples.

Qin's face turned pale, and she gritted her teeth: "Hurry up! I can't hold on much longer!"

Ororo knew Magneto was inside the torch. A surge of air rose around her, and a small whirlwind lifted her feet off the ground, about to burst through the hole above her head.

But she had barely gone halfway when several metal objects suddenly changed direction, wrapped around her ankles and wrists, and pulled her back into the head of the Statue of Liberty, firmly imprisoning her on the cold bronze wall, making her almost unable to move.

At the same time, Jean's psychic barrier reached its limit, and the metal fragments easily broke through the barrier, restraining both her and Scott.

Even young Logan outside was pulled back and tied face-to-face with Scott, and a piece of metal removed Scott's glasses.

At this moment, young Logan placed his hands on Scott's chest, while Scott closed his eyes tightly. Neither of them dared to use their abilities, for fear of hurting the other.

However, their posture was a bit awkward; they were extremely close, almost touching nose to nose, making the atmosphere increasingly ambiguous.

Qin: Why does my head feel green?

In just a few moments, the entire X-Men were wiped out without even seeing Magneto.

Young Logan was very frustrated. He was supposed to come here to gain experience in dealing with Magneto, but instead, he ended up getting beaten up by Magneto.

That's not wrong. Most X-Men get utterly thrashed by Magneto. If you haven't been thrashed by Magneto, you can't really call yourself an X-Men.

"My brothers and sisters, welcome!"

An aged and steady voice came from above.

Everyone looked up and saw Magneto, wearing a helmet, hovering in mid-air, looking down at them.

[NPC: Eric Lansheer]

Codename: Magneto

【Favourability: 20】

[Evaluation: A figure of great influence, the leader of the Brotherhood, the original Magneto, a key villain in the X-Men trilogy]

Wade, now fully recovered, tilted his head and examined Magneto, muttering, "By the way, how did he fly? Did he lift himself up by his helmet clamping his head?"

Du Mu: "

""

What the hell is this? Flying with your head clamped between your helmet and a helmet?!

Upon hearing this, Magneto's cool demeanor vanished instantly, replaced by a strange sense of absurdity.

Magneto ignored Wade's idiot act and said to himself, "You are honored to witness tonight's moment that will change the history of mutants. Those people in the hall below hold the fate of us and other mutants in their hands, but soon they will experience our fate firsthand. They will no longer be the judges above us, but will become one of us."

Jean Grey quickly said, "Magneto, your equipment is malfunctioning! The senator you modified is dead, killed by genetic collapse! This isn't transformation, it's a massacre!"

"That was just a minor accident and won't affect the overall situation."

Magneto's voice remained unwavering.

He is a man of unwavering conviction, or to put it bluntly, a stubborn man. Even his best friend Professor X couldn't persuade him, so how could he be swayed by a few words from Jean?

Magneto's gaze shifted to Du Mu and the others: "You don't look like X-Men. Since you're fellow mutants, why do you stand on the opposite side and oppose us like the X-Men?"

"Humans see us as outsiders, as threats, and have always feared and rejected us, even attempting to exterminate us. They have never regarded us as equal beings. Charles always talks about understanding and peace, but what has his approach brought him? Only ever-increasing oppression and more persecuted compatriots!"

"Humans and mutants are destined to be unable to coexist equally. The long history has proven that peaceful coexistence is just a naive fantasy. For true coexistence, there is only one possibility: one side must completely disappear, or... be completely assimilated by the other side."

"Now, I have found a way to achieve this coexistence. I do not intend to destroy humanity. Instead, I am willing to give them a shortcut to evolution, so that they can become like us and become our true compatriots. When the boundaries disappear, the differences will naturally dissolve, and the struggle will be a thing of the past forever."

"You possess abilities, so why not join us and use that power to fight for a truly better future for all mutants?"

Magneto's words were incredibly persuasive, no less so than those of the bearded man in the tavern.

If an ordinary mutant, resentful of their situation and disappointed with human society, heard these words, they would probably be filled with righteous indignation and immediately want to join Magneto's camp and risk their lives for him.

But none of the three, including Du Mu, were ordinary people.

Logan is a staunch X-Men supporter, deeply influenced by Charles's Will of X, and wouldn't care what Magneto says.

Wade picked at his ear and said, "What does all that rambling have to do with me?"

As for Du Mu... let's skip the plot!

Magneto had talked himself hoarse, but the three men before him remained unmoved. He shook his head in disappointment: "It seems you are content to live in the shadow of humanity and are willing to be tamed. If that's the case, then don't interfere with what really needs to be done."

Old Logan scoffed, "Magneto, after all these years, you're still the same bastard."

"Who are you?"

Magneto frowned slightly. He had no recollection of this person in front of him, so why did he act as if they were very familiar with each other?

"I will make you see me in a new light."

Old Logan grinned.

Now there's no adamantium in his body, and he's no longer the Magneto Happy Wolf who could be manipulated by Magneto at will.

Having been suppressed by Magneto for half his life, he can finally stand up!

The next moment, Logan suddenly exerted force with his feet, leaping from the breach to the top of the Statue of Liberty. Then, using the momentum again, he shot like a cannonball straight at Magneto, who was suspended in mid-air!

"Listen, my name is..."

BOOM!

With a loud bang, old Logan was sent flying by a large piece of metal, instantly turning into a small black dot as he plummeted toward the dark New York Harbor below, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.

"I'm listening."

Magneto said something casually, but no one could respond to him.

Du Mu's lips twitched slightly as he watched: "This old wolf is too embarrassing."

Even without adamantium, old Logan is still no match for Magneto.

Previously, he had an adamantium skeleton, so at least he could stubbornly claim that he was countered by Magneto's abilities and that it was normal for him to lose. Now, he has even lost that last excuse, but nothing has changed. He has truly lost face.

Upon hearing Du Mu's words, young Logan suddenly felt that the adamantium alloy was actually quite good, and muttered to himself that if he didn't have adamantium alloy inside him, he would definitely beat Magneto to a pulp!

However, it must be said that Magneto's abilities are indeed powerful, far surpassing those of Eric, whom Du Mu knew. At least in terms of his skill in manipulating metal, he is far more proficient, truly deserving of the title "Iron King."

"Looks like it won't be easy to remove Magneto's helmet," Du Mu thought to himself.

The bigger problem is that any equipment or props containing metal cannot be used. If used even slightly, they could be used against you by the enemy in the blink of an eye, just like Magneto and the Happy Wolf.

This alone has already ruled out all technological equipment and items on Du Mu's person.

"If that's the case..."

"7

Du Mu's eyes narrowed, and he clenched his fists, palms facing upwards.

The next moment, sparkling specks of light suddenly appeared in the air, coalescing into a dazzling magic sword.

Wade was stunned: "Dude, where did you get this light bulb?"

"This is a magic sword," Du Mu corrected.

"Don't joke around, this is clearly a light bulb, it looks like those cheap special effects from Star Wars..."

'

Before he could finish speaking, Wade's head was pierced by a magic sword.

Du Mu looked at Wade's fallen corpse and said coldly, "Clearly, this is a magic sword; a light tube doesn't have this power."

77

Magneto:

'

'

Why does this kid look even more evil than me?

Du Mu disliked looking up at people, so he took out his flying broom and flew to the same height as Magneto.

"Old Wan, for the sake of our acquaintance, it's not too late to surrender now."

97

"And who are you?"

Magneto was puzzled; why were all these strangers trying to establish connections with him tonight?

Du Mu smiled slightly: "I am Du Mu, the founder of the Brotherhood."

Magneto paused, then sneered, "You're the founder of the Brotherhood, so what am I?"

"That's a sorority."

Magneto: "6"
