At that moment, after killing Clone 24, Logan turned his head toward them and slowly approached.
"You... what are you trying to do?"
"Wolverine, you can't harm us, or else—"
Donald tried to make a threat, but his bravado was empty.
Meanwhile, the black rifles continued to fire at Logan. However, no matter how much they shot, their bullets had no effect. Their attacks only deepened their despair.
Logan completely ignored Donald's words. Without hesitation, he charged at him and Dr. Rice.
"No!"
Donald's face was filled with terror. He wanted to say something more, but the next second, silver claws pierced through his chest. He could no longer speak.
Logan withdrew his claws and coldly looked at Donald, who was convulsing on the ground. Then, he shifted his gaze to Dr. Rice.
"You can't—"
Dr. Rice panicked, trying to say something, but what greeted him was Logan's sharp right claw.
With a swift slash, the silver claws cut across his neck, and blood sprayed out instantly.
Logan paid no attention to the dying Dr. Rice. His gaze swept over the remaining people in the area.
Then, a bloody massacre began.
One…
Two…
Relying on the Venom suit, Logan slaughtered nearly everyone present. Only a few managed to escape due to their speed, and Logan had to let them go.
After dealing with them, Gabriela, Laura, and the others cautiously called out from a distance.
"Wolverine?"
They were unsure. The man in front of them, clad in a platinum-black battle suit, had just brutally slaughtered so many people. Was he still the Logan they knew?
"It's me." Logan turned to answer. Then, he glanced at himself and felt a bit restricted.
As soon as he had the thought, the Venom suit retracted into his body.
Before long, the familiar sight of Logan reappeared—tall and muscular, his face covered with a thick beard. Seeing this, the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Not far away, Syd watched this scene and muttered, "It seems the fates of Professor X and Logan have changed."
As for what would happen next—what fate awaited the mutants—he was unsure.
After pondering for a moment, he saw Logan discussing with the young mutants about heading to their last safe haven—the so-called Mutant Eden.
Syd shook his head.
That so-called Mutant Eden was fictional. It didn't exist in reality.
Logan and the others were doomed to be disappointed.
Thinking this, Syd made a decision and said, "Well, I might as well help them once more. And at the same time, I can test my Chaos Magic."
He planned to use Chaos Magic to envelop an area, altering everything within it, creating something akin to a Mutant Eden.
Additionally, Syd was curious about the limits of Chaos Magic when it came to modifying the environment.
But before that, he had other matters to attend to.
He had a strong premonition—although he had dealt with the fighter jets and immediate threats, the government and military would not give up so easily. More attacks were bound to come.
And as expected, the Mexican government had already discussed how to deal with him.
After a unanimous decision, they resolved to deploy a nuclear bomb!
Moreover, the nuclear bomb was not just their idea. It was aided and requested by the U.S. government and had even gained approval from multiple nations.
The military officials were confident that with the ultimate weapon of humanity—a nuclear bomb—they could eliminate this mutant threat.
Even if he was supposedly an Omega-level mutant, even if he was considered the ultimate threat to humanity, how could one mutant possibly contend against the ultimate weapon of mankind?
His powers might be formidable, but in the end, he was still a biological entity. And biological bodies were inherently fragile.
How could he possibly survive the sudden detonation of a nuclear bomb?
There was no other outcome—he would be vaporized!
Time passed, and soon it was noon the next day.
As Syd basked in the sunlight, absorbing its energy, he suddenly sensed something. His gaze shifted toward the distance.
Ten kilometers away, a massive white conical nuclear missile streaked through the sky, its tail spewing fiery exhaust as it rapidly approached.
"So they really did find me."
Syd's face showed no surprise.
Even though he had been staying invisible near Logan, it wasn't difficult for governments and intelligence agencies to track him down.
After all, in this world, there was no shortage of ways to locate someone.
As he pondered, the enormous white missile suddenly stopped advancing and detonated mid-air.
In an instant, an intense burst of light erupted in the distance.
BOOM!
A terrifying explosion followed, unleashing scorching heat and radiation, along with a shockwave of devastating force that tore through the surroundings.
Under its impact, countless trees and earth were sent flying. A fiery glow engulfed everything, spreading rapidly in the direction of Syd and the others, several kilometers away.
Logan and his group, who had been on the move, instinctively turned their heads toward the bright light.
What they saw filled them with horror.
A monstrous explosion was rushing toward them!
Everything in its path was being annihilated!
Logan and the others were blinded by the overwhelming light.
How could anyone possibly survive such a devastating attack?
"It's over..."
That was their final, despairing thought.
At this moment, it wasn't just them witnessing the nuclear explosion. Multiple governments, as well as various news drones from major media outlets, were recording the event from afar.
After all, whether it was the sight of a nuclear detonation or the demise of the dangerous mutant, it was something worth broadcasting.
"How could he possibly withstand such a terrifying explosion?"
"He probably didn't even have time to react, right?"
Countless people stared at the footage in anticipation, eager to see the outcome.
Just then, as Logan and the others were fixated on the distant explosion, another flash of light erupted—this time just a few dozen meters away from them.
Another nuclear bomb!
This one had been planted in advance, lying in wait for them to pass by before being triggered.
BOOM!
Another catastrophic explosion erupted, sending high temperatures, radiation, and shockwaves outward. Trees and soil were hurled into the air.
At such close range, Logan and the others had no time to react—just as the military had planned.
Seeing the nuclear detonation succeed at such a close distance, the officials watching from their command centers breathed a sigh of relief.
"It worked!"
"We've finally dealt with these threats, including that mutant..."
Just as they celebrated, an anomaly occurred at the heart of the nuclear blast!
