Chapter 276 5-Year Rocket Launcher

As for the third reaction.

The Trascino Sentinel robots must be destroyed!

Keep in mind that one out of every two people could be a mutant, and no one can guarantee that they themselves are that mutant.

Even if they themselves are not mutants, the people around them might be.

From distant relatives and friends to close family members.

Who can guarantee that there isn't a single mutant among the people they know?

Trasc's actions undoubtedly put everyone in a dangerous situation.

As a result, demonstrations of varying scales broke out in major American cities one after another, with people chanting slogans to boycott Trascitz and the Sentinel robots, and some even raising "mutant lives matter" flags.

Fortunately, Black Skin isn't the current meta pick yet, so there haven't been any limited-time events like free purchases.

Not only ordinary citizens are restless, but those in high positions also share this concern and have joined forces to put pressure on the Ministry of National Defense.

Mutants used to be a minority, and nobody cared whether they lived or died.

But things are different now. Most people have the X gene in their bodies and are potential mutants.

On the contrary, pure humans who have no X gene at all have become a minority group.

Things like sentinel robots, which threaten the safety of most people, must never be allowed to exist.

Under pressure from various parties, the current president of the United States personally ordered Trask to immediately destroy all Sentinel robots and related data, and to permanently prohibit the resumption of research, otherwise he would be prosecuted for crimes against humanity.

Trasc: "

How can something he created targeting mutants be accused of being anti-human?

Isn't this just bullying honest people?!

The most frustrating thing was that afterward, he discovered that the Sentinel robot had been tampered with, but he didn't dare tell the Department of Defense. What could he say?

Could we tell the Department of Defense that someone secretly upgraded the Sentinel Robots' gene recognition system, making them able to detect the X gene more accurately?

Wouldn't that further confirm Charles's conclusion?

Having exhausted all other options, Trasc contacted Du Mu in the end, hoping to meet him.

Du Mu agreed and asked him to meet at the usual place.

A few hours later, Trask pushed open the door to the private club room and saw Doom playing games, just like last time, with Psylocke feeding him fruit. Trask went straight to the point: "Mr. Doom, you have to help me this time, Project Sentinel has stalled!" "What does that have to do with me?"

Trasc was taken aback. Why did Du Mu's attitude suddenly change?

He quickly added, "If the Sentinel program doesn't go on, mutants will completely threaten humanity's position, and then the whole world will belong to mutants."

Du Mu declared righteously, "Trasco, I must remind you, this is racism!"

Trasc: "???"

You didn't say that a while ago.

Trasc reminded him, "Mr. Doom, don't you hate mutants the most? Mutants use their abilities to cheat and ruin the game environment. These scum must be eliminated!"

Du Mu frowned: "Trascoff, you seem to be going a bit to extremes. Is it really necessary to make such a fuss over a game?"

Trasc: "???"

Holy crap!

Before he could speak again, two purple butterflies suddenly flashed in the eyes of Lingdie beside Du Mu.

The next second, Trasc froze on the spot, his expression blank.

Du Mu waved his hand: "Change his memory, make him stop hating mutants, and make him pledge allegiance to the Hellfire Club from now on."

Psylocke hesitated, "Lord Black King, he seems particularly obsessed with eliminating mutants, and my psychic abilities aren't as strong as Lord White Queen's, so it's a bit difficult to completely eradicate this idea."

"Then let's shift this obsession to something else. Hmm, let's change it to him being determined to grow taller and dedicating his life to that goal."

"Uh, okay."

In fact, Du Mu could have had Psylocke control Trasc much earlier, but doing so wouldn't have made much sense.

Trasc was just a starting point. Even without him, the U.S. government still had the data and information he left behind, which allowed them to continue the Sentinel program.

That's how things normally unfold in the timeline.

To completely shut down the Sentinel program, the US government itself needs to abandon the idea.

That's why Du Mu went through all this trouble with Trasc, using his Sentinel robots to let the whole world know the dangers of the Sentinel Project. That way, without Du Mu having to do anything, those high-ranking officials who value their lives would fight tooth and nail to stop the Sentinel Project.

At the same time, a system notification sounded in Du Mu's mind.

Mission "Project Sentinel" completed.

[Rewards: 3000 XP, Mutant Relationship +10, Anchor Fragment *3, Item "Dwarf's Joy", Item "Forging Hammer", Equipment "Plastic Gun", Dungeon Quest Item "Fifty-Year Rocket Launcher"]

[Item: Dwarf's Elixir (Drinking it will make you grow 10 centimeters taller; a coveted item for many short villains)]

[Item: Forging Hammer (A hammer used by dwarves for forging; it can repair any damaged object given the right materials)] [Equipment: Plastic Gun (The bane of the Iron King)]

[Dungeon Quest Item: Fifty-Year Rocket Launcher (An upgraded version of the Ten-Year Rocket Launcher, which teleports the target to the world fifty years in the future without swapping with their future self. It can be used a maximum of seven times and lasts for one month. After the time expires, everyone will be automatically sent back to their original timeline. It can only be used in this dungeon.)] Dwarf's Joy?

Du Mu glanced at it and skipped over it.

He has a character customization system that allows him to adjust his height at any time, so he doesn't need this feature at all.

Besides, his height has always been around 1.8 meters, so he doesn't need such an external object.

A forging hammer is a good thing.

He happened to have a lot of damaged equipment in his game inventory, which he originally planned to recycle for experience points when he couldn't use it anymore. Now that he had this item, those equipment could be put back into service.

As for the plastic guns, there's not much to say; just send them to a secondhand recycling center.

Du Mu turned his attention to the dungeon quest items.

The Fifty-Year Rocket Launcher allows you to travel directly to the world fifty years in the future.

This item has an incredibly powerful effect, but unfortunately it can only be used seven times and is limited to this dungeon.

"Could it be that the system is guiding me to a point in Logan's future timeline?"

As Du Mu was pondering this, the system voice sounded again.

[The prerequisite quests for the dungeon have been completed; the dungeon quests are now being officially distributed.]

Mission: Save the Future

Objective: To use a time anchor to travel to the future, help the surviving mutants, and save that world filled with despair.

[Reward: Payment will be made based on the progress of the task]

The dungeon quests are finally here!

But Du Mu paused for a moment after reading the mission objectives.

In the future, Logan wants to change the past, but the game system wants him to save the future?

You have to understand that the future world is practically the end of the world for mutants, with Sentinel robots everywhere.

Saving such a future would be extremely difficult.

After thinking for a moment, Du Mu went directly to Future Logan and told him that the Sentinel Project had fallen through.

Upon hearing the news, Logan was initially pleasantly surprised.

He hadn't expected Du Mu to act so quickly, handling Trasc and his Sentinel plan in just a few days and completing his mission. But then, a look of confusion crossed his face: "Since the mission is complete, why hasn't anything changed? Why am I still here?"

Du Mu explained, "Then there are only two possibilities: either this is a parallel universe that has nothing to do with your past and you've traveled to the wrong place, or changing the past won't change the future, it will only create a new timeline."

Logan barely understood what Du Mu meant.

He gave a bitter smile: "So, you're saying that all our efforts to go back to the past, at all costs, were in vain?"

In fact, he had anticipated this outcome long ago.

After all, this timeline has already become unrecognizable without his involvement; if he could change the future, he would have done so already.

Nevertheless, Logan still finds the future somewhat hard to accept.

The mutants of the future placed all their hopes on him, but in the end, nothing changed.

How could he accept this?

Charles looked at Logan in the future and sighed, not knowing how to comfort him.

Although he wanted to help, he had done everything he could, and the future remained unchanged, so there was nothing he could do.

Du Mu chuckled and said, "Don't be discouraged. Since we can't change the past, let's change the future."

Logan shook his head: "You don't understand. Our world is beyond saving. Mutants are either killed by Sentinel robots or locked up as experimental subjects by genetically pure humans. There's nothing we can change with just a few of us."

In the future, they will be constantly chased by Sentinel robots, and it will be a miracle if they can even keep their lives, let alone change the world.

If they could do it, they would have done it long ago.

Du Mu patted his chest: "Aren't we still here?"

"you?"

Logan looked at him with a hint of helplessness: "We're from two different times, and you can't travel through time, so what can you do?"

"Who says we can't travel through time?"

Du Mu grinned.

The two were stunned. Charles asked incredulously, "Du Mu, you have a way to travel to the future?"

"certainly."

Du Mu nodded confidently: "Charles, call all the official members of the fraternity over. I need to speak with them."

Upon hearing this, Charles suppressed his doubts and used telepathy to summon all the fraternity members from Xavier's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Soon, the fraternity members arrived one by one.

Before they could even ask, Du Mu, a cigarette dangling from his hand, said indifferently, "Think about it carefully, it should have already implanted all of this into your minds."

Think about it carefully?

Everyone was taken aback, then suddenly felt something new appear in their minds—the Main God Space… no, it was about the future Logan. After processing the memories in their minds, the expressions on the faces of those present varied.

They finally understood why Du Mu had made them perform that play that night.

Scott's face turned green.

He suddenly remembered that if the Logan from that day wasn't the real Logan, then what did he mean by saying he liked the piano?

Eric's face darkened. "So, this is our future?"

That night he had dealt with the Sentinel robots. Although he couldn't control them, there were a hundred ways to deal with them.

He never imagined that these things he had taken for granted would become so terrifying in the future, nearly wiping out mutants.

"That's right."

The future Logan nodded: "I was sent by you and Charles from the future to save the past, but now..."

The past has changed, but the future remains the same.

Eric wasn't stupid; he understood immediately.

He frowned. "Is it possible that the key isn't Trascoff at all, but Raven? Didn't they say the Sentinel robots upgraded because of her blood? So, as long as Raven lives, the Sentinel robot crisis won't be resolved?"

Raven: "???"

You bastard Eric, I've done nothing to you, why are you so eager for me to die?

Believe it or not, I'll transform into you and run naked through the streets!

Du Mu waved his hand: "Stop guessing. Facts have proven that no matter how we change things on our side, it won't affect Logan's future timeline. Don't ask why, just say it's quantum mechanics."

"What about Logan's future world? Are we not even going to be able to help?"

Alex and Logan have a good relationship; after all, Logan has always been his training target. Out of affection for Logan, Alex naturally wants to help the future Logan. Hank shook his head: "It's difficult. Our two timelines don't affect each other; they're like two parallel worlds. To influence the other world, you'd have to travel through it, but we have no way to travel between parallel worlds."

No, we do.

As Du Mu spoke, a peculiar rocket launcher appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"A rocket launcher?"

Everyone was stunned.

Du Mu shook his head: "This isn't an ordinary rocket launcher, it's called a 50-year rocket launcher. Just stuff someone inside and fire one shot, and it'll send them to the future." Everyone: "

After that shot, they might be reincarnated directly into the future.

Charles's eyes lit up.

He knew that Du Mu had traveled through parallel worlds, so it was perfectly normal for the other party to have a way to travel through parallel worlds.

He asked eagerly, "With this rocket launcher, we can travel to the future?"

Du Mu nodded: "Yes, but I can only use my rocket launcher seven times in the past fifty years, so I plan to form a team and go to the future world where Logan is."

"I'll go."

Charles said without hesitation.

"I'll go too."

Eric saw Charles sign up and immediately followed.

"Let's go too."

Other fraternity members raised their hands to sign up.

They saw that hopeless future, and as fellow mutants, everyone wanted to do their part.

However, considering the limited number of spots, Du Mu can only bring a maximum of six people besides himself. Moreover, this journey is very dangerous, and team members must have a certain level of self-protection ability, otherwise it will be a waste of time.

After much deliberation, Du Mu finally decided on the following candidates: Charles, Eric, Hank, Darwin, and... intern Jean. Charles and Eric, needless to say, are the two giants of the fraternity and must be included.

As the chief scientist, Hank was naturally included.

Darwin's abilities are best suited for a post-apocalyptic environment.

As for intern Jean Grey, she's practically the biggest cheat code in the X-Men. While there's a risk of her going out of control, she's also capable of turning the tide in crucial moments. Jean was fishing by the lake when she suddenly received news that she was going to the future world. She was completely bewildered, like someone wearing too much underwear. But when she heard that she could get a permanent position upon returning, she immediately agreed.

What could be more tempting than getting a permanent position?
