Chapter 236: Time Travel, Shocking the X-Men. The passage of time and the aging of friends.
"Huh? It's done already? This mission was a bit too easy, wasn't it..."
"Wait, no? Head to the next time node? How do I go? You aren't going to make me live day by day in this World until X-Men 2 a few years later, are you?" Gu Fan, who was holding Raven and flying quickly in the sky, asked with a face full of surprise.
"The Portal can do more than just travel through space; it can also travel through time."
"The Host can enter the Portal and travel directly to the plot of X-Men 2, which takes place a few years later." The dog system explained seriously as always.
"Damn it! Is that for real? That's impressive, dog system! How come you've never mentioned this ability to travel through time before?" Gu Fan asked, his face full of excitement and dissatisfaction.
"Previously, the Host's level was too low, and permissions were insufficient." The dog system replied indifferently.
"Fine, fine, after all that, you're still looking down on me because my strength isn't high enough..." Gu Fan rolled his eyes and muttered silently.
There was no other way; every time Gu Fan wanted to extract useful information or good things from the system,
this dog system always looked down on him, saying his level was too low and permissions were insufficient...
Gu Fan was about to go numb...
There was nothing he could do before, as his strength really was a bit weak and not worth mentioning!
But now, he had become a god!
Although he still couldn't beat big shots like the Heavenly Father Level peak Thanos or the God King Odin,
Gu Fan could casually beat up the current Thor, and he even felt that he was finally about to catch up to these old guys!
And yet, he was still being looked down upon by the dog system...
Gu Fan was speechless and immediately complained: "Big brother, just how strong do I need to be to catch your eye? Give me a straight answer!"
The system didn't speak, just maintaining silence.
Everyone completed the mission and returned to the academy full of joy.
Just as Wolf Uncle and the others were bragging to Professor X and the others about how easy and pleasant this mission was,
Gu Fan broke the happy laughter and said: "The mission here is done, so we're leaving."
"Huh? Didn't you just arrive? Can't you stay here for a few more days?" Wolf Uncle asked, puffing on the expensive cigar gifted by Gu Fan, his face full of surprise.
"Yeah, darling, it's rare for us to travel through the Worldand come back. Can't you stay here for a while longer?" Raven also revealed a lonely expression, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
Professor X and the others didn't speak; they just looked at Gu Fan silently, their eyes full of confusion.
"Ah, I'm not leaving this World. I'm going to the future to find you guys." Gu Fan said calmly, though the words were quite arrogant.
"The future? Kid, can you actually travel through time?" Wolf Uncle took a sharp puff of his cigar, looked at the Professor and the others, and asked skeptically.
However, Wolf Uncle noticed that whether it was Professor X, Jean, or the others around,
although they were all full of disbelief and surprise, none of them refuted or mocked him; they were all staring intently at the guy in front of them.
Wolf Uncle immediately turned his head, stared tightly at Gu Fan, retracted his cheeky smile, and asked with unbelievable shock: "You... don't tell me... you can really... travel through time..."
Gu Fan waved his hand, and a bottle of iced cola appeared in his hand. He opened the cap, took a calm sip, and felt incredibly refreshed.
"Guess..." Gu Fan raised his eyebrows playfully without saying much more.
"Clatter..." That thousand-dollar cigar fell from Wolf Uncle's mouth to the ground.
For a moment, everyone present was dumbfounded...
After all, time and space were existences that everyone found difficult to understand!
Even Professor X, who was known for having the most powerful brain, was too shocked to speak.
"Gu Fan, you said you want to go to the future of our World? Does that mean there will still be a major disaster in our World in the future? Also, will it take a long time for you to travel to the future?" Professor X stood up immediately and asked with a face full of surprise.
Professor X was indeed a smart man; his brain reacted quickly.
Hearing the Professor's words, Wolf Uncle and the others around immediately reacted and all looked at Gu Fan with curiosity.
After all, everyone knew that every time Gu Fan came, it was when this World was facing a major crisis, and he was there to save the World.
He wasn't there for sightseeing.
"Hmm, there is indeed a bit of a crisis. Don't worry, it's nothing major. Traveling through time is fast. For me, it's like seeing you again in a second. But for you, it should be a few years later." Gu Fan said calmly.
This was what you would call invisible arrogance—the most powerful kind!
Upon hearing Gu Fan say he wasn't leaving the World and could stay for a while longer, Raven's pretend-sad face immediately brightened up. She hugged Gu Fan's arm, shaking it happily, and wouldn't let go.
Hearing Gu Fan's general explanation, Professor X, Wolf Uncle, and the others felt much more relieved.
After all, every disaster was indeed full of difficulties for them.
But for a cheater like Gu Fan, that damn thing was just like cutting vegetables!
Everyone wouldn't be worried at all!
However, at the strong request of Wolf Uncle and the others, Gu Fan and Raven stayed for another half a month.
There was no other way; according to Wolf Uncle and Professor X, they hadn't seen each other for many years, and once he left, many more years would pass...
Looking at Professor X, who was a handsome and dashing young man when they first met, but now, on their third meeting, already had graying hair and many wrinkles on his face,
Gu Fan finally realized.
The greatest and fairest enemy of life is time and aging...
Gu Fan himself was immortal, and the girls around him also had long lifespans.
Wolf Uncle hadn't aged either.
But the others would age and die...
That was why Gu Fan decided to stay for this period.
Because of this issue, Gu Fan also thought that if, hundreds, thousands, or ten thousand years later, all the friends he knew were gone, his life probably wouldn't be very interesting...
This was probably why those gods were so calm and indifferent.
After all, everything to them was so small and fragile, like beautiful flowers, fleeting...
"Sigh, I'll have to find a way in the future to let Tony and that bunch of jerks accompany me for longer; otherwise, it will be so boring later..." Gu Fan thought helplessly.
Actually, Tony, Rhodes, Pepper, and the others had all injected the Extremis and enhancement serum.
Their bodies had received huge strengthening and changes!
Not only was their strength greatly increased, but they could also repair injuries.
Their lifespans had been greatly extended, but Gu Fan's lifespan was infinite!
He didn't want his future endless years to be without the company of his friends.
He didn't want to become a boring god, but wanted to continue being an interesting person...
Half a month later, light shone, and under the gaze of Professor X, Wolf Uncle, Jean, and others.
"Everyone, see you in a bit." After saying that, Gu Fanhugged Raven and walked into the Portal, disappearing from the academy's plaza.
Chapter 237: Raven Tries Her Hand, Instantly Kills Enemies, Shocking Professor X and Others!
"Hello, I'm back!" Gu Fan, shining with light, immediately stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Gu Fan? You're back?" Wolf Uncle opened the door, sizing up Gu Fan with a curious expression.
Gu Fan and Raven hadn't changed at all; both were still wearing the same clothes they had on when they left last time.
Even their hairstyles hadn't changed!
What made Wolf Uncle even more speechless was that the thread he had secretly stuck on Gu Fan's shoulder was still in the same spot.
"Believe me now? Here, it's yours." Gu Fan, with a mischievous smile, took the thread from his shoulder and returned it to Wolf Uncle.
"Damn it! It's actually true! Time travel? How are you getting more and more outrageous?"
"You're becoming less and less like a human, and more like a God!" Wolf Uncle, still holding his favorite cigar in his mouth, was filled with surprise and shock.
Following Wolf Uncle into the house.
Professor X and the others were all there, but they looked a bit older.
After all, for Gu Fan and Raven, it only took two steps: opening a Portal and walking through it, just an instant.
But for the people of the X-Men World, that was several years... Wolf Uncle, however, was still the same, still young, handsome, and with much less hostility, replaced by the feeling of a good family man and a good teacher.
Professor X was still walking briskly, with thick hair, but due to his age, his frequency of flirting wasn't as high as before.
Beast had gained some weight, wearing glasses, and his blue fur even had some White strands, indicating aging.
Cyclops and Stormfront were in their prime, still young, with no significant changes.
And when Jean saw Gu Fan, the fear and wariness she had before were gone, replaced by a sense of curiosity and defiance.
No wonder, back then, Jean, still a little girl, was invited back by Professor X and Magneto together.
Neither of these old guys had the confidence to go alone; they had to drag the other, and only then did the two strongest Level Four Mutants feel a bit more secure.
But the quiet little girl Jean, with a casual lift of her hand, made countless vehicles and many other objects from the surrounding blocks all float into the air.
It could be said that the little girl Jean was ruthless and spoke little, yet was cool and flashy!
This directly shocked Professor X and Magneto.
Although Jean had grown up by the Professor's side and become gentler and more humble, she still had an unyielding spirit deep down!
After years of continuous effort to become stronger, Jean felt that she wouldn't easily lose to Gu Fan anymore.
Actually, she wasn't entirely sure herself, as she had only heard Professor and Wolf Uncle brag about Gu Fan's God-like power, capable of destroying everything in an instant.
But not having witnessed it firsthand, Jean had a premonition that there was still a Pacific Ocean's worth of difference between Gu Fan's strength and her own... Gu Fan, of course, didn't mind Jean's actions and enthusiastically held a dinner party with his old friends whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
Gu Fan then learned from his friends that everything had been good in recent years. After Gu Fan's previous thrashing, not only was Magneto well-behaved and quiet.
Even the US Government was actively promoting the integration of humans and Mutants.
Of course, Mutant vaccines were also continuously being researched, as some Mutants had very weak Superpowers, and their appearance would become very ugly and strange.
This greatly affected the self-esteem and normal lives of some Mutants.
Of course, Gu Fan's deterrent power was still present, so everything was natural and non-mandatory, entirely based on voluntary injection.
Indeed, many strange-looking Mutants strongly supported it, becoming normal people after injection and striving to integrate into ordinary human life.
"Everything seems to be developing in a good direction," Professor X said, smiling at Gu Fan while sipping red wine.
"No, a new crisis has already begun..." Gu Fan sighed helplessly, speaking faintly.
Everyone else looked puzzled.
But only Gu Fan knew that some organizations had always been working hard on experimental research targeting Superpower Mutants.
In the original plot, they extracted Raven's blood, and through continuous upgrades, finally created Sentinelrobots that could constantly evolve and were practically invincible.
Mutants were almost completely slaughtered.
Fortunately, Wolf Uncle, with the help of Shadowcat Kitty's ability, returned to the past and united the two young men, Charles and Erik, who were still feuding, to change history together.
Although they gained a period of peace, the human US Government later began extensive research into Mutantfood, leading to no new Mutants being born, and older Mutants' Superpowers rapidly weakening until they died of old age... Wolf Uncle also died at that time, protecting some children... Gu Fan naturally wouldn't reveal these things, as everything was uncertain now. He could only silently help think of ways to change this terrible dead end in the X-Men World.
Sure enough, a few days later, Nightcrawler, who was entirely blue and had a tail, directly broke into the White House of the US Government.
He used his ability to teleport and his powerful skills, instantly killing a group of Agent bodyguards and even attempting to kill the President.
He was eventually driven away by other bodyguards who shot at him.
The President, filled with horror and rage, saw Nightcrawler's knife stuck in the table and a note with a warning written on it.
The President was furious!
He invited a scientist who had previously specialized in Mutant research under General Stryker, wanting to retaliate against the Mutants.
There was no other way; Stryker and his confidantes had all been killed by Gu Fan and Wolf Uncle years ago.
This scientist was the only old man left from back then.
Wearing a white lab coat and glasses, he looked exactly like a Doctor.
But like General Stryker, he was a pervert who experimented wildly on Mutants.
Even over the years, he had secretly been conducting various cruel experiments... That very night, the US Government organized numerous assault teams to raid Professor X's Academy.
However, they never expected, what a surprise it was!
Gu Fan, who was feared worldwide, was also there... But Gu Fan didn't even need anyone else to act; Raven easily dealt with the enemies from several helicopters...
Amidst the stunned expressions of Professor X, Wolf Uncle, and others.
Raven, clad in a black superman battle robe, transformed her entire body into Fire, impervious to blades and bullets, agile in her movements, swift and ruthless in her attacks, quickly turning all the soldiers into ashes... Professor X's wrinkled face trembled, and he asked, somewhat blankly, "My goodness, Raven, how did your strength become so exaggerated?"
"Yes, yes, I remember you didn't have this Fire ability or that abnormal physical constitution before!" Wolf Uncle's cigar butt burned his lip, causing him to wince in pain and quickly spit it out, asking curiously.
Chapter 238: Gu Fan's Powerful Girlfriends! Breaking Through the Lake Dam, A Direct, Mindless Assault!
"Is this strength considered strong? Among darling's group of girlfriends, I can only be considered to have average strength." Raven, with a coquettish expression, smiled and returned to Gu Fan's side.
She completely changed from her previous decisive and heroic demeanor, unexpectedly becoming a little woman, pulling Gu Fan's arm, incredibly gentle.
This left everyone who knew Raven stunned; had this straightforward goddess of slaughter really been so easily subdued by Gu Fan?
Wolf Uncle couldn't help but pout, giving Gu Fan a thumbs-up, full of admiration.
In fact, Raven's strength was not just powerful; she could dodge bullets, and the black superman battle robe she wore could block all bullets and tranquilizer darts.
And even if the exposed skin suffered some damage, the exaggerated Extremis within her body would quickly heal everything.
This resulted in all those guys around Gu Fan who had injected Extremis being ridiculously fierce!
Not only were their combat skills proficient, and their strength and speed powerful, but when they fought, they were just like Wolf Uncle, using a completely reckless and crazy fighting style!
After all, broken limbs could heal, so what was there to fear?
After interrogating the surviving high-ranking official, everyone finally knew where the problem lay.
Professor X immediately used the telepathic enhancer to lock onto Nightcrawler.
Wolf Uncle, Stormfront, and Jean immediately set off, gave Nightcrawler, who was still sleeping at home, a beating, and then dragged him back.
Nightcrawler was completely bewildered, thinking he had offended some terrifying force.
Fortunately, with the patient explanations from Jean and the other girls, Nightcrawler let down his guard.
However, although Nightcrawler had a terrifying appearance, he had always been kind-hearted and did not know what he had done.
Jean was kind-hearted; while helping Nightcrawler treat his wounds, she discovered a rather large circular needle mark on the back of Nightcrawler's neck.
Only then did everyone realize that Nightcrawler was likely being controlled by drugs.
Jean used her Telepathy ability to probe Nightcrawler's deep memories and indeed obtained some information.
Professor X found that the root of everything might be the Alkali Lake industrial center.
Then, Gu Fan decisively took Raven and prepared to fly there immediately.
Wolf Uncle, Jean, Cyclops, Stormfront, Iceman, and Pyroimmediately piloted the plane and followed along.
Meanwhile, Professor X and Beast were left at the institute to protect the students and take care of logistics.
Everyone soon arrived at that location.
But as everyone looked down from the sky, below them was a huge dam and a vast artificial lake.
"Where could these guys' secret Base be? Did the Professor get the address wrong?" Storm looked at the boundless lake water with some anxiety and complained to everyone.
"Impossible, the Professor shouldn't have made a mistake." Jean frowned, also constantly pondering.
Just when everyone didn't know what to do.
Gu Fan, holding Raven in his arms, hovered above the lake, calmly scanned the surroundings, and then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"We didn't come to the wrong place; their secret Base is right beneath this reservoir and dam." Gu Fan said confidently through his headset.
"What? That's impossible, we can't see anything from the plane? How did you see it?" Wolf Uncle looked at the lake surface curiously, his face full of astonishment.
"Hehe, that's naturally because I have X-ray Vision, which can penetrate the lake water and rocks to see into the depths underground." Gu Fan replied calmly, showing off invisibly.
"Holy crap! Doesn't that mean you, kid, can casually see what kind of underwear others are wearing? Or even see everything inside their clothes..." Wolf Uncle let out a funny, strange cry and quickly covered his chest with one hand and his crotch with the other.
"Damn it! You old fart, I wouldn't look at you, you old mangy dog, even if I looked at anyone! Why would I look at you? I'm afraid of getting a stye in my eye..." Gu Fan, speechless, saw Wolf Uncle's ridiculous actions through the plane.
"Hehehe, that's true. But we're really envious of this ability of yours, kid!" Wolf Uncle, biting on a cigar, teased deliberately.
Hearing this, the few people in the plane were all shocked and astonished, all very impressed by Gu Fan's exaggerated and terrifying number of abilities.
Jean, Storm, and the other girls also had blushing faces, and they immediately reacted.
They all followed Wolf Uncle's example, covering their chests with one hand and protecting their bottoms with the other...
"You guys are going too far. I don't usually activate this ability; old people are just like X-ray films, what's the point? I'm truly exasperated..." Gu Fan curled his lips and sighed helplessly in his heart.
When he first obtained this ability, Gu Fan had long since tested it, but, honestly, it was really meaningless...
Hearing Gu Fan's explanation, Jean, Storm, and the other girls slowly let go of their hands with skeptical faces.
But they still retained some guard against Gu Fan.
Seeing the actions of the other girls, Gu Fan looked at Raven, somewhat speechless, and said indifferently: "See, my brilliant, heroic, and peerless reputation has been tarnished by this group of old farts..."
Raven just laughed until she was shaking, not saying anything.
"Alright everyone, let's stop joking around; we still have an important mission!"
"I just scanned this dam. It has omnidirectional, no-blind-spot defense and sensor mechanisms; if we are not careful, we will easily be discovered by the personnel inside. What should we do?" Cyclops, who had a serious personality, immediately interjected.
"How about we just charge straight in? Let's see who can stop us!" Wolf Uncle said with a domineering expression.
For a moment, everyone fell silent, looking at the reckless Wolf Uncle with speechless eyes, yet they didn't know what to do either.
"Sigh, I'll do it." Gu Fan's eyes narrowed, and he said indifferently.
"Gu Fan, how are you going to break in? With such a huge lake and dam, and even the defenses deep underground, I'm afraid even a nuclear bomb might not be able to take them out!" Jean tilted her head, staring intently through the plane window at Gu Fan, who was hovering in the air not far away.
"How? Hehe, I'll just walk straight in, fair and square!" Gu Fan said in a calm tone, with a hint of a sneer.
"But, there are alarms there! And..." Storm, who had a straightforward personality, immediately interjected.
However, before she could finish her sentence, a huge "rumbling" sound kept coming from outside the plane!
The blue sky and the green lake surface were suddenly illuminated by a scorching orange-red light, dazzling Storm, Jean, and the others in the plane until they were dizzy...
Everyone immediately and curiously leaned against the plane windows, wanting to see what was going on.
In just an instant, everyone was left dumbfounded.
It turned out to be Gu Fan; he had directly fired an incredibly huge, scorching orange-red energy from his palm, violently attacking the lake water beneath him!
Chapter 239: The Manifestation of the Phoenix Force. The Hilarious Brute Wolf Uncle, Smashed into a Meat Patty.
A massive amount of lake Water was now surprisingly split down the middle by Gu Fan's terrifying attack, revealing the soil beneath.
And the terrifying energy attack emitted from Gu Fan's hand passed through as if it were nothing, piercing through the lakebed soil and even penetrating the concrete hidden deeper down!
"Uh, who said earlier that this secret Base could defend against nuclear-level attacks? Why is it so easy in Gu Fan's hands, just like a hot knife through butter?"
"Hmm, it seems that just because that person is Gu Fan, everything he does appears so easy..."
Jean stared at Gu Fan outside the window with shining eyes, her gaze filled with excitement and a strange expression.
But no one noticed that on Jean's originally extremely excited face, a cold and ruthless expression faintly appeared.
However, that abnormality quickly disappeared.
Although Jean herself felt something was slightly off, she only thought it was because she was too excited or overworked, so she didn't pay it any mind.
In fact, over the past few years, Jean had occasionally experienced such states of trance, dizziness, and even memory loss and fainting.
Jean had also checked herself multiple times and even went to find Professor X.
However, they never found any problems with her body.
Yet the frequency of this discomfort was increasing, and the situation was becoming more and more serious...
With no other options, Jean could only assume that she might be too exhausted and had overtrained her Superpower.
After all, several years ago, after being beaten up by Gu Fan for the first time and truly seeing Gu Fan use that invincible power.
Although Jean felt some fear of Gu Fan in her heart, she also developed a great interest in him.
Jean hoped that by constantly working hard and becoming stronger, she could make Gu Fan truly notice her.
Even better, if she could defeat Gu Fan, that would be even better.
Actually, Professor X naturally knew about Jean's problem, but he hadn't told Jean herself.
When Jean was young, she possessed a powerful force that could be called invincible.
But this power was too exaggerated, and young Jean was too weak.
Thus, Professor X used his exaggerated Telepathy to seal the dark consciousness and massive energy within Jean's body.
But now, as Jean continued to grow and become stronger, the terrifying dark soul hidden within her body was also constantly growing stronger!
It was now even beginning to gradually influence the soul of the kind-hearted Jean!
Unfortunately, for many years, this was a problem Professor X had always wanted to help Jean solve, but he still had no way to do so.
Gu Fan, having watched the movie plot, naturally knew everything.
While Gu Fan was constantly breaking through the heavy defenses underground, he was also keenly observing Jean inside the plane.
Although Jean's slight change was only for an instant, it was still discovered by Gu Fan.
"This little girl probably won't be able to hold on for much longer. Even if she isn't impacted by the reservoir here, I'm afraid she won't last much longer." Gu Fan's eyes narrowed as he muttered to himself.
"How about I just use the Superpower Transfer Card and transfer Jean's Phoenix Force to myself!"
"Save her life and let her be an ordinary person. That terrifying Phoenix Force should be borne by me, this great philanthropist, instead! Hehehe..." Gu Fan's mouth curled up wildly, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty desire.
"What a pity! There are still so many other powers I want! It's really a dilemma!"
"It's a pity that Rogue's ability to absorb others' Superpowers is only for short-term borrowing. If it were permanent, then I would be invincible!" Gu Fan swallowed his saliva, suddenly coming up with an interesting idea.
"Forget it, forget it, there's still enough time. I'll go back and study it carefully with the dog system. Let's handle the important business first."
After speaking, Gu Fan raised his hand and withdrew the exaggerated, massive energy attack from his hand.
Looking from the plane and the sky, a shocking and eerie scene appeared.
In the center of that huge lake, a huge deep pit seven or eight meters wide appeared.
Yet the lake Water did not crazily rush into the deep underground pit.
Instead, it eerily circled around the deep pit, forming a stark contrast...
And the deep pit had pierced through the underground soil layer, as well as the thick concrete that could resist nuclear attacks.
At the very bottom, weak lights were constantly flickering, accompanied by the terrified exclamations of people.
"Good lord, kid Gu Fan, this is too exaggerated, you aren't really a god, are you..." Wolf Uncle bit off the expensive cigar Gu Fan had brought this time, his face full of shock.
"What do you think? Hehe." Gu Fan smiled faintly.
"I've already cleared the path, so should I go down and clear the field?"
"Don't! We didn't really get to make a move last time! It was too embarrassing! We haven't trained any less these past few years, and we were counting on this time to crazily save face! Leave it to me!" Wolf Uncle picked up the half-cigar with heartache and quickly put it in his mouth, taking a few fierce puffs.
Wolf Uncle opened the rear cabin door of the plane, spat out the half-cigar in one breath, and a cold, grim smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
Nightcrawler was just about to raise his hand, wanting to say that he could help.
As a result, Wolf Uncle jumped directly from the plane, falling like a meteor into that huge deep pit.
The others on the plane all looked at each other with bewildered expressions.
"Is he alright?" Storm looked at the huge deep pit with a strange, speechless expression.
"Damn, Wolf Uncle was smashed into a meat patty. Whoa, there's quite a lot of blood. Hey, he's recovered, he's standing up! That's awesome!" Gu Fan also stared at the deep pit, dumbfounded, providing a detailed commentary for everyone.
Listening to Gu Fan's commentary, the others were also speechless.
None of them had Wolf Uncle's exaggerated recovery ability, much less his brute nature!
Cyclops directly lowered the plane's altitude, almost touching the lake surface.
A rope was lowered from the plane, and everyone quickly slid down the rope.
Nightcrawler didn't dare to speak, just silently teleported down underground.
Gu Fan also held Raven and flew down last.
While Cyclops needed to provide support for everyone, he had to stay in the plane.
"That's right, you kid can teleport! I jumped in vain..." Wolf Uncle looked at Nightcrawler, who had teleported down with a calm expression.
"That... I wanted to say it just now, but you jumped directly, and I didn't have time..." Nightcrawler looked at Wolf Uncle with some fear, not daring to speak loudly.
Not just Wolf Uncle, even Jean, Storm, and the others who slid down the rope all looked at Wolf Uncle speechlessly.
Everyone's eyes carried a hint of "This guy is definitely crazy!"...
Of course, they had also forgotten about Nightcrawler's ability to teleport, and they didn't dare to complain too much about the brute Wolf Uncle.
They only felt that the wounds rapidly recovering on their bodies were actually hurting even more...
"Hahaha, alright, it's all a small problem, let's go." Gu Fanbarely held back from laughing too excessively, so he had to interject.
And at this moment, hurried footsteps kept coming from the underground tunnel, and enemies were rapidly surrounding them from both ends!
Chapter 240: The Show-off Wolf Uncle, Getting His Kidneys Shredded by Deathstryker's adamantium!
Wolf Uncle had completely recovered from being a pile of mangled meat.
He immediately bared his teeth, his mouth twitching.
Clearly, Wolf Uncle was also feeling a hell of a lot of pain!
"Gu Fan, kid, don't move. Let us handle it this time! I've been training hard for a long time!" Wolf Uncle spread his hands, and Bone Claws suddenly popped out from his arms!
Storm, Jean, and the others were also eager to give it a try.
"Uh, what's wrong with them? Why do they all seem a bit too excited..." Nightcrawler curled up in a corner, curiously watching the group charging toward the enemy with shouts and howls, and asked Gu Fan with a face full of confusion.
"Well, these little kids have reached their rebellious phase; it's the time when they want to prove themselves." Gu Fan's lips curled up as he spoke with a hint of playfulness.
Many armed enemies rushed in from both sides of the corridor.
These Agents had originally discovered an anomaly and wanted to come over to check it out.
They didn't expect to actually see enemies and immediately began firing wildly at them.
Wolf Uncle was the most stubborn; he took several bullets directly, becoming covered in blood, but he braved the rain of bullets and charged at several Agents.
His sharp Bone Claws ruthlessly pierced into the bodies of the enemies one by one.
One Agent at the very back trembled all over, threw down his submachine gun in fear, and turned to run.
But Wolf Uncle dropped to all fours and, with a few pounces, directly tackled the enemy.
Soon, Wolf Uncle bloodily dealt with all the enemies.
He stood up, grimacing, and looked back at Gu Fan in the distance as if showing off his cool battle results.
Seeing Wolf Uncle covered in blood yet still putting on a cool and badass front toward him.
Gu Fan only asked curiously, "Does it... really not hurt?"
After all, Gu Fan felt that he wasn't an outsider; he didn't care how high Wolf Uncle flew, he was more worried about whether it hurt... Bullets quickly fell out of his body.
Wolf Uncle felt awkward for two seconds, his mouth twitching uncontrollably for a while. "Pain? What's that? It doesn't hurt at all! Just tell me, was I cool or what!"
"Cool, cool! You're the coolest! You're really stubborn as a mule, acting like it doesn't hurt! Hahaha..." Gu Fan slapped his thigh and laughed maniacally.
Raven helplessly pushed away Gu Fan's large hand and complained speechlessly, "As long as you're happy. Use less force when slapping thighs, it's already red. Or slap your own thigh..."
Raven was a bit speechless as she rubbed her thigh, which had been turned a bit red by Gu Fan's antics, looking at her man with a doting expression.
The enemies on the other side were dealt with even more swiftly.
It wasn't convenient for Storm to use Lightning Powerunderground, but Jean could.
With a casual wave of Jean's hand, the countless bullets flying toward them actually all came to a halt.
With another wave of her hand, the bullets returned the way they came, instantly taking out all the Agents in front of her.
After finishing everything, Jean also intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Gu Fan and raised her chin slightly to show off her strength.
Gu Fan only felt that every single one of them was a problem child.
"This way." Gu Fan used his X-ray Vision to briefly check the path and then led everyone quickly in the right direction.
Everyone had just entered an experimental hall.
Inside was a laboratory filled with various experimental equipment and human X-ray films.
Gu Fan knew that, logically, this should be where General Stryker, whom he had already killed, would have injected Wolf Uncle with adamantium, turning him into the completely invincible metal Wolverine.
However, due to his involvement, Wolf Uncle had not suffered that cruel fate.
But looking at the walls full of various instruments and data blueprints.
This place had clearly already been used for experiments.
Wolf Uncle looked at everything before him and couldn't help but step forward to curiously examine the experimental equipment.
Just then, a woman dressed entirely in black suddenly appeared and kicked Wolf Uncle several meters away.
"Nobody move, let me handle this one!" Wolf Unclescrambled up, his face full of annoyance.
Approaching the woman in black, Wolf Uncle bared his teeth again and slowly popped out his sharp Bone Claws.
However, the woman in black in front of him actually smiled and raised her ten fingers.
Her fingernails were also rapidly growing longer, appearing incredibly sharp!
They even glinted with a cold metallic luster... "Uh oh, this doesn't feel quite right..." Wolf Uncle's eyes widened as he looked at the woman in black.
The people around them didn't know and thought that with Wolf Uncle's strength, he would surely be able to deal with the enemy in front of him quickly.
But Gu Fan, with a playful look on his face, didn't speak up to warn him. Instead, he stood with his hands on his hips, watching the scene with a mischievous expression.
Gu Fan naturally knew who this woman in black was; she was the Deathstryker!
She was once General Stryker's assistant and possessed a terrifying recovery ability similar to Wolf Uncle's.
And most terrifyingly, she had been successfully modified and possessed indestructible claws.
In the original movie plot, even the complete version of Wolf Uncle, who possessed the same adamantium, was beaten up by the Deathstryker and had his kidneys shredded... Later, Wolf Uncle had to inject liquid adamantium into the Deathstryker's body to kill her.
Unfortunately, Wolf Uncle didn't have any adamantiumright now... Sure enough, before the battle had even gone on for long, Bone Claws and steel claws clashed!
Wolf Uncle's Bone Claws were instantly severed!
Wolf Uncle's face was full of terror; the pain of broken bones was heart-wrenching, and he screamed bloody murder... But before Wolf Uncle could have any other reaction.
The Deathstryker utilized her agile speed to launch another fierce attack on Wolf Uncle's kidneys!
Gu Fan felt that if Wolf Uncle's kidneys were taken out, they could be sprinkled with seasoning and grilled directly.
There would be no need for any further slicing... Jean, Storm, Nightcrawler, and the others all had expressions of being unable to bear to watch.
Nightcrawler was even more terrified by Wolf Uncle's miserable state, clutching his own kidneys and shrinking behind Gu Fan's tall silhouette.
Although Wolf Uncle's claws were ruined, he was still trying to attack, grabbing the surrounding experimental equipment to constantly counterattack.
But when Wolf Uncle discovered that the terrifying enemy in front of him could also quickly recover from injuries.
Wolf Uncle suddenly felt numb, losing all hope in life!
"Gu Fan, you troll, save me! I can't hold on anymore." After having his kidneys shredded again, Wolf Uncle finally couldn't hold out any longer and began to wail in pain.
Gu Fan had been laughing for a long time before he finally wiped the smile off his face and strode forward.
In an instant, Gu Fan arrived beside Wolf Uncle and the Deathstryker.
Before either of them could make any reaction.
Gu Fan grabbed the Deathstryker's slender neck and lifted her high up with one hand!
Wolf Uncle then collapsed to the ground in pain, panting heavily with a look of utter despair.
The Deathstryker's face was pale and full of pain, yet she still wore a mocking expression, fiercely swinging her slender, long, and sharp adamantium claws to thrust them violently into Gu Fan's chest!
But then.
"Clang!" With a sound of metal clashing, sparks flew in all directions!
Chapter 242: The Illusion Ability That Makes Gu FanCovetous!
Gu Fan curled the corners of his lips with a hint of playfulness.
Illusion Master could not move his body, but his eyes could still see Gu Fan's entire appearance.
He discovered that his peerless illusion ability was completely ineffective against the person in front of him, and his heart began to turn cold.
And now, seeing him so robust and filled with killing intent, taking out the pile of Agents around him in one move.
Illusion Master's teeth couldn't help but chatter rapidly, his body stiffened, and he was scared to death.
Gu Fan bent down and leaned close to Illusion Master's ear, revealing his stark white teeth at the corners of his mouth, smiling eerily, and said lightly, "You this ability, I am really looking forward to it! This is simply an invincible ability!"
"As long as I want, I can create any World or character I imagine! Giving it to you is simply a waste!" Gu Fan stood up abruptly, raised his hands high, and shouted excitedly.
Gu Fan's excitement and shouting naturally shocked the Illusion Master in front of him.
He only felt that Gu Fan was terrifying; not only was he scary, but he might also have a problem with his brain...
And Jean, Nightcrawler, and Storm, who had recovered, all looked at Gu Fan, who was becoming increasingly excited and shouting louder, with blank expressions.
Everyone didn't understand a single word, after all, they didn't know the goddesses from the movies and TV shows Gu Fan was talking about.
They only thought, had this guy Gu Fan gone crazy...
How did he suddenly get so hyped while killing enemies...
They only watched with shock, feeling that the train of thought of a super boss like Gu Fan was not something mortals like them could fathom...
And Raven covered her face, speechless!
The few girls had been with Gu Fan for many years.
Naturally, they knew Gu Fan quite well.
After all, they would accompany Gu Fan to watch some movies, TV series, and even anime that he loved when they were free.
What made Raven most speechless was that whenever there was a goddess from a movie or TV show that Gu Fanloved.
Gu Fan would have Mystique Raven transform into the appearance of that goddess, and then Gu Fan would satisfy his cravings!
That feeling was simply exhilarating!
However, it also allowed Raven to receive quite a lot of Gu Fan's affection!
This really made Diana, Natasha, and Su feel a bit envious and jealous.
The girls even privately approached Gu Fan, wanting him to help them so that they could also possess similar transformation abilities.
But Gu Fan had no way for now, and he didn't want to spend expensive store points just for this, so it could only be discussed later.
Anyway, having Raven who could transform was enough.
But if the conditions were met, Gu Fan would definitely choose to have them all!
Currently, he could at most let Raven turn into the girls, allowing him to experience the fun of twin beauties.
But once all the girls could transform, that would be the joy of multiple siblings!
Such a temptation was something Gu Fan truly couldn't resist...
"Various goddesses from anime, Rem, Saber, Asuna, Queen Medusa, and others. Goddesses from TV shows like Xiaolongnu and others. As well as various different characters and scenes, as long as I can think of them! Everything can be simulated to be nearly real!"
"This ability of yours is simply a loser's dream! So... just give it to me. Go die!" Gu Fan looked at Illusion Master with excitement, the smile at the corners of his mouth becoming increasingly scary.
Illusion Master's whole body began to tremble rapidly, as if trying to make a final struggle.
However, once the scorching red Laser Eye shot out directly.
Illusion Master was neatly cut in half from head to toe...
The enemies were all eliminated, and the World finally fell into complete silence.
Jean and the others rescued some of the surviving Mutants, and everyone quickly took a plane back to the academy.
The problem was solved quickly, which surprised Professor X a little.
However, through the helpless accounts of Wolf Uncle, Jean, and the others, Professor X finally learned about the humorous situation along the way.
Fortunately, Gu Fan was there, otherwise, this mission might have been very tragic.
Moreover, this time, the big bad guy, Magneto, was not there.
This made Professor X feel a little surprised.
Perhaps Old Wan was truly scared by Gu Fan last time, found a place to hide, and lived a quiet life.
Gu Fan, having completed the mission, was very relaxed.
With nothing to do, he lived here with Raven for more than half a month, enjoying a wonderful life with his friends.
"Alright, brothers, we're leaving, see you later! Oh, or should I say, see you in a few years?" Gu Fan waved his hand, put his arm around Raven, and strode towards the glowing white Portal.
The light flashed, and Gu Fan and Raven arrived at the gate of the academy again.
Everything around seemed unchanged.
Only the buildings looked a bit old, and the trees around had grown taller.
"Hey, brothers, your Grandpa is back!" Gu Fan patted the gate and laughed excitedly.
Gu Fan was truly very excited.
Because this was the plot of X-Men 3.
This was not only the last one of this series of missions, but also a chance to get a lot of Superpowers!
What made Gu Fan feel most excited was that in this plot, Jean would go berserk and turn into Dark Phoenix!
Whether he had to helplessly kill her, or use a Superpowertransfer card!
This invincible Phoenix Force would all belong to him!
Many ordinary Superpowers were actually quite bizarre and useless.
The Enhancement Points that could be added were also not much.
But the blackened Jean, that invincible and one-of-a-kind Phoenix Force in the whole Universe, was the only Level 5 Mutant in the X-Men World!
Possessing energy that could destroy the World!
And it was a terrifying power comparable to the chaos magic of Scarlet Witch Olsen.
Destroying the World, changing reality and illusion, creating Worlds out of thin air, affecting the physical World—it was simply invincible!
In a parallel Universe, the blackened Scarlet Witch said, "No more Mutants!"
As a result, all Mutants in the World disappeared.
The power of the big bosses was just that awesome; they only needed to move their thoughts and lips.
It was similar to wearing the Infinity Gauntlet with all the gems.
With a simple snap of the fingers, one could destroy the World and the entire Universe, and even recreate a brand new Universe!
It was still Wolf Uncle who opened the door.
Everyone was surprisingly there, but everyone had clearly been baptized by time, and everyone had grown or aged a bit.
Everyone chatted happily for a while first.
Although for Gu Fan, it was just one step and one second.
But for Wolf Uncle, Professor X, and the others, they had genuinely spent several years!
"How is it recently? Any abnormal events?" Gu Fan looked at everyone and asked curiously.
"The US Government has started promoting that they have developed a special vaccine. After injection, Mutants can turn back into ordinary people, and they hope everyone will inject it voluntarily." Professor X sighed helplessly.
Chapter 243: The Terrifying Vaccine That Can Wipe Out Mutants! Jean's Horrifying Power Goes Berserk!
"They're boiling a frog in lukewarm water; they want to completely eliminate all Mutants!" Gu Fan commented indifferently.
Actually, Gu Fan completely understood. After all, those high-ranking officials had tried several times to deal with these Mutants who possessed such terrifying power.
It was just that they had always been blocked by Gu Fan.
Now, under the banner of treating a disease, they were administering vaccines, trying to boil the frog in lukewarm water.
It was a way to quickly and gently reduce the resistance of the Mutants.
Once their numbers dwindled, many other methods would become much more effective.
"Yes, but that is also their own decision. We should respect them," Professor X said slowly.
"No, aren't we going to fight back? This Serum could be used as a weapon, and might even become the murder weapon that completely wipes us out!" Wolf Uncle stood up and shouted, his face full of dissatisfaction.
"We cannot make this decision for others. After all, there are many Mutants with low-level strength whose appearances have been altered so much that they cannot live a normal life at all. They all long to become normal people, just like Rogue." Professor X sighed, frowning and finally shaking his head helplessly.
Wolf Uncle looked dissatisfied, but because he had a very good relationship with Rogue, he naturally knew her pain.
After hesitating for a moment, Wolf Uncle sat back in his chair and said weakly, "But we still have to do something. This is a terrifying weapon that can completely wipe us out!"
After talking with everyone in the Academy, Gu Fan knew that Professor X and some others were still unwilling to interfere.
Meanwhile, Wolf Uncle and some others wanted to stop these Serums.
There were many Mutants both inside and outside the Academy who were looking forward to being injected with the Serum and turning back into ordinary people.
Of course, there were certainly extremists like Magneto, who had already begun traveling around, constantly looking for manpower.
Old Wan still wanted to fight and resist, even wanting to lead an army of Mutants to kill any enemy that stood in his way.
He wanted to destroy those Serums developed by the US Government and ultimately let Mutants rule the World!
According to Professor X's explanation, Magneto had already attacked a convoy transporting dangerous Mutants.
He had released many heinous and powerful Mutants.
Among them was Red Tank, as well as many others.
Gu Fan was truly a bit speechless.
He felt that Professor X was a bit too much of a "Holy Mother" and too lazy.
No matter what happened, he could actually ignore it all.
He really had that vibe of a master offering his neck to the blade, saying 'kill me if you want'... Gu Fan hated this kind of person the most, guys who spout a bunch of empty and pretentious platitudes.
Clearly, he had the strength, the brains, and could discover things in advance.
Yet he just allowed the trouble to gradually become more fierce and let more people die, all while acting kind and pretending to care for others. I'm truly fed up!
Although Magneto was somewhat ruthless, compared to Professor X, Gu Fan indeed preferred Magneto.
After all, Old Wan was decisive in his actions; if there was a problem, he would actually step up!
"By the way, why aren't Jean and Cyclops here? Did they go out?" Gu Fan didn't plan to argue further with Professor X. After all, if there was a problem, he would have to solve it himself. He immediately changed the subject and asked.
"Well, Jean has run into some trouble. Cyclops is with her in the Medical Room." Professor X lowered his head and sighed helplessly.
Wolf Uncle, Storm, and several others present also sighed, looking somewhat afraid.
"Oh? What's wrong with Jean? She was fine last time." Gu Fan looked at everyone's strange behavior, couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, and asked curiously.
"Jean's power is too great; she's losing control now..." Professor X began to explain.
Perhaps because Gu Fan was powerful and always brought more exaggerated surprises and unexpected events to everyone.
Professor X detailed all of Jean's problems and how he had used his power to help her in the past.
After finishing, Professor X stared intently at Gu Fan, hoping this powerful man could save his most prized student.
Gu Fan hadn't expected that even though things hadn't followed the original plot, Jean's body would still have problems due to the surge in power.
"Sorry, I don't have a solution for this problem either." Gu Fan shook his head and said helplessly.
Professor X's last hope was now completely extinguished... Actually, Gu Fan could directly transfer Jean's Phoenix Force to himself.
But then Jean would lose that invincible Superpower.
At the same time, without Jean appearing as the big boss in the final battle, the System rewards would likely be greatly reduced.
This was something Gu Fan was unwilling to see.
After all, he traveled around various Worlds and Universes precisely for those rewards from the System!
While everyone was still chatting, the entire Academybegan to shake violently!
Everyone thought an earthquake was happening. Professor X immediately arranged for Wolf Uncle and other teachers to go out and lead the panicked students out of the building to avoid danger.
But Gu Fan activated his X-ray Vision, looked around, frowned, and said indifferently, "It's not an earthquake. It's Jean!"
"What? Not an earthquake? It's Jean? What's wrong with her?" Professor X was shocked and surprised. He immediately stood up and rushed out.
Led by Professor X, everyone soon arrived at the Medical Room.
What met their eyes was a mess; all the equipment and furniture in the room were floating in the air.
Cyclops was also floating in the air, unable to move his whole body, his expression painful, yet he continued to shout, trying to comfort Jean.
Jean stood in the room, her aura powerful and murderous, not at all like the gentle and lovely girl of the past. Everything around her was floating, centered on her.
Her eyes were completely black, without a hint of white, looking very eerie.
Professor X rushed to the front, speaking to Jean in a calm and gentle tone.
At the same time, he constantly used his powerful Telepathy to try and soothe the blackened Jean.
But as soon as Professor X took a few slow steps forward, Jean's gaze locked onto him.
Professor X's face began to contort, seemingly enduring great pain.
Yet he continued to move forward, wanting to soothe the rampaging Jean.
Wolf Uncle, Storm, and the immobilized Cyclops floating in the air were all filled with anxiety.
But there was nothing anyone could do.
Although Jean had experienced this problem several times before, this time the impact was unprecedentedly exaggerated.
Everyone had solemn expressions, only hoping that Professor X could once again soothe Jean's exploding energy.
As Jean's eerie black eyes locked onto Professor X, who had suddenly intruded into her vicinity, he also began to float up slowly.
An irresistible force pressed down on Professor X, and his bones began to make strange "crackling" sounds.
Chapter 244: The Preliminary Darkening of Jean, Crushing the X-Men. Gu Fan Prepares to Intervene.
A terrifying force continued to crush Professor X from all directions.
The old man was already howling in agony, unable to utter a single coherent word.
Wolf Uncle's eyes were bloodshot as he lunged forward, desperate to rescue Professor X.
However, Blackened Jean merely spared a cold glance at Wolf Uncle. His fierce pounce was brought to an absolute standstill, and he too was imprisoned by a mysterious force, slowly floating into mid-air... Seemingly dissatisfied with Wolf Uncle's sudden intrusion, Blackened Jeanslightly relaxed her grip on Professor X, who only had a single breath left in him.
Although the old man was still suspended in mid-air, his body finally stopped making the sound of cracking bones, allowing him to gasp for air greedily.
But Wolf Uncle, who had spoiled Blackened Jean's mood, was in for a world of pain!
The moment Jean raised her hand, his bones let out several crisp 'crack, snap' sounds.
They began to break and twist into bizarre, grotesque positions!
Even though Wolf Uncle could rapidly heal from his injuries, he could still feel the excruciating pain.
Suddenly subjected to such massive trauma, Wolf Uncle's eyes bulged, his mouth hung wide open, and he began to howl in continuous agony... Cyclops, whose specialized glasses had been knocked off, could only keep his eyes tightly shut, his face contorted in pain as he listened to everyone's screams.
Professor X glanced sideways at Wolf Uncle but was powerless to help. He could only knit his brows tightly and keep talking, trying to quickly soothe the rampaging Blackened Jean.
Wolf Uncle truly lived up to his top-tier recovery abilities; his twisted, broken limbs, with bone visible, actually returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Blackened Jean looked at him as if he were an interesting plaything, the corners of her mouth curling into a cold, chilling smile.
Then she raised her hand again... Wolf Uncle, whose limbs had just finished healing and whose pain was gradually subsiding, was sweating profusely and gasping for air. He stared at his own limbs in utter disbelief as he began to wail and roar even more hysterically.
Indeed, Wolf Uncle's limbs were suddenly snapped once more!
And this time the injury was even more severe, horrifyingly so, with fresh blood dripping and pooling all over the floor... Outside the door, Storm listened to the agonizing screams and the wretched state of Wolf Uncle and the others. She gritted her teeth, no longer hesitant, her face hardening as if she had finally made up her mind.
Naturally, she had a good relationship with everyone; after all, they had lived, fought, and taught students together for many years.
But something had gone wrong with Jean. She wasn't just planning to kill her own boyfriend; she was planning to kill Professor X and Wolf Uncle too!
Storm had no choice but to make a decision and pick a side.
She suddenly raised her hands, her eyes turning a milky blue-white. Her body began to slowly levitate, and outside, a gale started to howl as lightning and thunder crashed together.
It seemed she felt she had gathered a significant amount of Lightning Power.
Storm suddenly swung her hand toward Blackened Jean. Carrying terrifying and immense Lightning Power, a dazzling white light flashed from the sky and struck toward Blackened Jean's body!
But Blackened Jean just tilted her head, the cold chill still hanging on her lips, while her body remained motionless.
The massive bolt of lightning slammed violently toward Blackened Jean.
However, around Blackened Jean's body, there seemed to be a layer of unknown energy forming an egg-shaped barrier, blocking all of that fearsome Lightning Power just a short distance away from her!
Blackened Jean's lips curled up in what seemed like mockery. Her pitch-black pupils looked indifferently at Storm, as if to say, 'Is that all?'
Storm's face was now filled with horror and disbelief.
She was certain that while that strike hadn't used all of her power, it wasn't far off.
Yet it had been neutralized so easily by Blackened Jean, who hadn't even budged an inch... The usually confident and strong Storm suddenly felt uneasy all over, shaking her head repeatedly.
Seemingly wanting to confirm it again and intending to unleash an even greater power, Storm's expression grew more solemn as she raised her hands to rapidly accumulate Lightning Power once more.
But Jean seemed somewhat dissatisfied. She suddenly raised her hand and used an invisible grip to snatch Storm, who was hiding outside the room, into the air as well.
Subjected to the terrifying force that was frantically squeezing her body from all directions like a surging river...
Storm, floating in the air, quickly joined the ranks of Wolf Uncle and the others in their chorus of agonizing screams... The Lightning Power she was gathering was also forced to a sudden halt.
Only by experiencing it firsthand did Storm realize just how unbearable the pain Wolf Uncle and the others were enduring truly was!
Endless despair surfaced on Storm's face.
Wolf Uncle was in even deeper pain and despair.
His limbs, and even his body, had already been crushed several times by Blackened Jean specifically.
Although he quickly recovered each time thanks to his exaggerated healing factor, Blackened Jean acted as if she couldn't get enough of her toy, tirelessly repeating the torture over and over.
An atmosphere of despair quickly surrounded everyone present.
Fortunately, Professor X had already instructed the other teachers to lead the students out of the school earlier, so they were all able to avoid this one-sided, horrific torture and slaughter.
Jean seemed a bit dissatisfied, or perhaps she was tired of playing. She lightly raised her hand, intending to use a bit more strength to completely grind these little bugs blocking her path into ashes.
Seeing Blackened Jean's movement, Wolf Uncle shouted repeatedly in pain, 'No!'
Professor X still maintained his kind-hearted demeanor, looking at Jean gently with a smile on his lips, as if he didn't mind his own death.
The devoted lover Cyclops was still shouting tensely, 'Jean, how are you? Jean! Are you okay?'
Storm gritted her teeth hard to keep herself from howling continuously from the pain.
'Sigh, you guys haven't made any progress in the last few years. I guess I'll have to do it...' Gu Fan, who had been watching the show for a long time, shook his head helplessly and complained. He then stepped into the room with calm strides.
Jean noticed someone else approaching, but she had already unleashed her power.
However, that person didn't seem to have any problems at all, still approaching her with calm and composed steps.
For a moment, Blackened Jean was a bit dazed. On her face, which had been cold as frost, a hint of clear emotion could now be seen.
Dissatisfied, she raised her hand, wanting to unleash the even greater power within her body to completely eliminate this little bug in the black battle robes, whose power was only slightly greater than those around him.
But Blackened Jean was surprised to find that her terrifying, invincible power had absolutely no effect on the guy in front of her... While howling in pain, Wolf Unclelaughed and complained, 'Good brother, I almost forgot you were here! Hurry up and save me! I'm about to be twisted into a pretzel by her!'
Professor X and Storm couldn't speak, but they looked at Gu Fan with eyes full of hope.
Cyclops gritted his teeth and tried his best to shout, 'Gu Fan, I beg you, please don't hurt Jean!'
'Don't worry, I won't let her get hurt too badly...' The corners of Gu Fan's mouth curled up into a faint smile.
Having walked up to Blackened Jean's side, Gu Fan slowly raised his right hand.
Chapter 245: An Unadorned Slap Shatters the Pride and Dreams of the X-Men!
Wolf Uncle, Professor X, and Storm all widened their eyes, pinning their last hope of survival on Gu Fan.
In this eerie and quiet room, everyone heard a crisp "Slap!"
What they saw was Gu Fan delivering an unadorned slap directly!
Blackened Jean was originally full of confidence in the defensive shield around her body, planning to wait and watch the black-robed man fail.
However, that indestructible egg-shaped defensive shield was actually pierced through by Gu Fan!
That invisible defensive shield, which could withstand top-tier Level 4 strength and Storm's terrifying Lightning Power.
The imprisoned Storm couldn't help but widen her eyes, almost questioning the meaning of life.
Wolf Uncle was even more excited, finding it incredibly satisfying!
Under Gu Fan's slap, it was like paper, shattering instantly... Although Gu Fan's palm met a slight resistance, its momentum remained undiminished as it struck Blackened Jean's face directly.
Blackened Jean's face went from utter disdain at the start...
...to an expression of disbelief the moment her invisible shield was broken.
Before Blackened Jean could make any reaction, Gu Fan's broad palm slammed violently into her face!
An immensely powerful force deformed her face with a clean and decisive blow.
Then, because the force was too great, she was sent flying through the wall... several loud thuds followed.
Wolf Uncle, Professor X, Storm, and Cyclops immediately fell to the ground as the binding force vanished.
All the surrounding furniture and appliances also crashed to the floor.
The room was in a state of complete chaos.
"Hiss, wow, isn't that a bit too much? Is Jean okay?" Wolf Uncle's lips curled up, but he was also a bit worried.
"Well, she should be fine. There was no other way; if I used too little force, I was afraid I wouldn't break her defense." Gu Fan shook his hand helplessly with a smile.
This time, thanks to Gu Fan's help, Wolf Uncle not only avoided the horrific adamantium human experiments but also did not lose his memory.
And Wolf Uncle's beloved wife, Silver Fox, hadn't died either; their lives as teachers at the academy were going quite well.
Therefore, because he was under his wife's thumb this time, Wolf Uncle didn't have any special affection for Jean.
Although they were colleagues of many years, having been repeatedly tortured by Blackened Jean made Wolf Uncle—straightforward as he was—feel somewhat disgruntled, even if he still worried about her as a friend and colleague.
Storm looked at Gu Fan's palm in shock, then raised her own hand to look at it.
As if feeling it was surreal, she even flicked her own palm, gesturing and mimicking the motion.
It seemed she had lost confidence in her Lightning Powerand instead wanted to learn Gu Fan's unadorned slap.
"Gu Fan, was that some kind of Superpower you used just now? What's the deal? How could it be so powerful?" Storm stepped forward and asked, staring at Gu Fancuriously.
"Well, it wasn't a Superpower, just ordinary brute force." Gu Fan's lips curled up as he explained calmly.
"Jean, how are you? Gu Fan? Is Jean okay? Where are my glasses? Where are my glasses?" Cyclops shouted urgently while fumbling around on the floor.
He kept his eyes tightly shut, fumbling around to find his special glasses.
He was doing okay at first, but hearing the exaggerated conversation between Gu Fan, Wolf Uncle, and Storm...
...his already deep concern immediately peaked, and he couldn't help but shout in a panic.
Professor X was already in poor health due to his age.
Furthermore, he had been receiving special attention from Blackened Jean.
He had been slumped on the ground, panting heavily, unable to help.
Wolf Uncle and Storm immediately stepped forward with worried faces to check on the old man's condition.
With a wave of his hand, Gu Fan retrieved the special glasses from a pile of debris and placed them directly on Cyclops's nose.
Only then did Cyclops react; he immediately opened his eyes and looked around, trying to find his girlfriend.
Seeing Gu Fan gesture upward, he dashed like a madman through the large hole in the wall, wanting to find Jean as quickly as possible.
Gu Fan then followed him out unhurriedly.
Wolf Uncle and Storm, supporting a slightly recovered Professor X, followed closely behind, wanting to help as well.
As soon as everyone got outside, they discovered a human-shaped crater on the grass dozens of meters away!
There was some blood around it, along with some of Jean's long hair.
But Jean was gone... Cyclops roared in terror, running around frantically in search of his girlfriend.
Wolf Uncle and Storm joined in the search.
However, after searching the entire surrounding area, they couldn't find a trace of Jean.
Cyclops knelt on the ground in despair and pain, tears streaming down his face.
Gu Fan, of course, knew what was going on.
Although he had been able to break Jean's defense just now, it wasn't because he was incredibly strong or the Phoenix Force was weak.
It was simply because Jean hadn't unleashed much of the Phoenix Force's terrifying power at all.
You should know that in a certain parallel timeline of the Marvel Universe...
...Olsen, whom everyone thought wasn't that strong, used her terrifying Chaos Magic to completely crush every Superhero in her way!
Those invincible beings were all easily and utterly eliminated by Wanda!
It could only be described as incredibly brutal!
Gu Fan had only succeeded this time because he saw through Jean's underestimation of her opponent.
Jean was naturally fine; after being sent flying, she had immediately found a way to escape as soon as she hit the ground... Gu Fan, of course, had no intention of chasing her, as there were still grand battles to come!
"Jean has escaped, and she's far too dangerous now! She could cause massive casualties! Quick, help me to the secret room. I'll use Telepathy to see if I can find her," Professor X said to Wolf Uncle and the others, ignoring his physical pain.
Originally, Wolf Uncle and Storm wanted to persuade the old man to rest and go to the infirmary for a check-up.
But hearing the danger of casualties, they immediately supported Professor X and headed toward the secret room.
Cyclops followed them, filled with hope.
A long time later, Wolf Uncle and Storm walked out, supporting Professor X.
"It's no use. Her power is too great now; she can actually block my detection. I can't find her either..." Professor Xshook his head, his face pale and filled with pain.
Everyone fell into despair.
Cyclops looked utterly hopeless, not knowing what to do... "No rush, I think I know where she'll be," Gu Fan said, raising an eyebrow playfully.
"Where? Where is Jean! Tell me quickly! I need to find her!" Cyclops immediately lunged forward, gripping Gu Fan's arm tightly and asking with a face full of anticipation!
Chapter 246: Magneto, the Show-off Who Uses a Bridge as a Mount, a War Is About to Erupt!
"Of course, she's with our old friend, Magneto," Gu Fansaid calmly.
"Magneto? He's been gone for many years. What is Jean doing with him?" Cyclops asked, his face full of confusion.
"That old rascal Magneto is not a peace-loving guy."
"This Mutant vaccine issue has made him feel a suffocating sense of impending destruction, so he's definitely going to cause trouble."
"And Jean, as a powerful existence, Magneto will certainly try every possible way to take Jean away," Gu Fan analyzed seriously, looking at everyone.
"That's right, Erik definitely won't just surrender to the Military docilely. He also knows how powerful Jean is..." Professor X, supported by Storm, sighed helplessly.
When the US Government first announced the vaccine, Magneto, who had been living in seclusion for many years, sensed that something was wrong.
He immediately began to constantly gather people, control television stations, and appeal to the oppressed Mutants to assemble, preparing to form a Mutant army to fight against the US Government and destroy their Mutant vaccine.
The so-called vaccine was actually extracted from a little boy.
This little boy was also a Mutant.
His ability was to make all other Mutants completely lose all their Superpowers after getting within a certain range of him!
And when a person left a certain safe distance, their abilities would automatically return to normal.
Of course, neither the US Government nor the Mutants knew yet.
The Mutant vaccine they developed could not completely restore Mutants' abilities and turn them into ordinary people.
In fact, it was just like being near the little boy; it only made Mutants lose their Superpowers for a certain period of time.
In the original plot, Magneto was injected with the Mutantvaccine and completely lost his abilities.
But later, his abilities slowly began to recover, and Old Wan became arrogant again... Gu Fan temporarily had no intention of telling everyone all this, and Gu Fan was also curious about the terrifying power of that little boy!
"Then, where do we go to rescue Jean? Didn't you say you knew where they would be? Please, tell me!" Cyclopsasked excitedly and urgently.
"Hmm, they fear the complete extinction of Mutants, so naturally, they want to destroy the source of the vaccine," Gu Fan said, raising an eyebrow.
"Is it the vaccine factory? Then let's leave immediately!" Cyclops shouted, his face full of excitement.
"Don't rush, let's settle the current matters first," Wolf Uncle said seriously, supporting the constantly coughing Professor X.
Soon, everyone settled the students who had taken refuge everywhere.
After a check, the old man Professor X had some injuries and a few broken bones, but they were not fatal.
There were people with healing abilities in the academy, and it didn't take long for them to help Professor X and other injured students recover.
However, after the headcount, as Gu Fan expected, Pyrohad indeed run off to join Magneto.
But it didn't matter; it just meant Gu Fan could gain more Points.
Raven came to Gu Fan's side, full of worry!
She had been helping to protect the students before and was not by Gu Fan's and Professor X's side.
She hadn't seen the terrifying sight of Blackened Jeanoverpowering many.
However, upon seeing Professor X, the old man who raised her, covered in injuries and with multiple broken bones!
Raven cried for a long time.
Fortunately, the injuries were quickly healed; otherwise, Raven would have planned to go fight Jean by herself... even though she knew she definitely couldn't defeat such a powerful Blackened Jean.
After everything was settled, everyone found the location of the laboratory, and they immediately piloted the plane, ready to head into battle!
This time, with Gu Fan's involvement, everyone received a lot of information in advance and arrived near the Experimental Base ahead of schedule.
Everyone secretly hid near the Experimental Base, waiting for Magneto's Mutant army.
Before long, everyone noticed a red dot floating in the sky.
And the dot grew larger and larger, gradually resembling a large bridge.
This left Wolf Uncle, Storm, Cyclops, and Raven all dumbfounded.
The soldiers guarding the Experimental Base also looked at the sky with faces full of surprise and horror.
For a moment, everyone didn't know if this was real or an illusion.
"Old Wan is really a show-off, making a huge bridge fly through the air as a tool to flaunt. Hmm, I'll have to learn from that later!" Gu Fan's mouth curved upwards, his eyes filled with excitement.
It was fine when watching the movie, just a bit shocking.
But experiencing it firsthand, Gu Fan realized that Magneto's display of power was indeed impressive; he truly learned something!
The US Government and Military had long known that Magneto and his army were coming.
They had deployed a large number of soldiers, tanks, and armored vehicles near the laboratory in advance.
And to counter the powerful Magneto, the soldiers' guns and bullets were all made of plastic.
Moreover, none of the soldiers wore any metal materials.
There was no other way; Magneto, who had carried out multiple terrorist attacks, had indeed caused immense psychological trauma to everyone!
Cyclops continuously searched with binoculars and indeed found Jean, dressed in black, beside Magneto.
Cyclops immediately wanted to go and save his lover.
But Gu Fan pulled him back.
"Don't rush, they have many people. Let them start fighting first, then it will be easier for you to save Jean," Gu Fan said calmly.
Under pressure from Gu Fan's formidable strength and Magneto's large Mutant army, Cyclops hesitated repeatedly and indeed quieted down.
"Oh my, this battle won't be easy! Magneto has quite a number of people!" Beast, covered in wolf fur, shook his head helplessly.
"It's fine, most of them are weaklings, not many are truly powerful. Besides, we still have Gu Fan! What's there to be afraid of?! Hehehe..." Wolf Uncle said, puffing on a cigar, his body filled with excitement and fighting spirit!
"Boom!" The bridge heavily crashed to the ground from the sky!
The massive, heavy steel bridge, like a terrifying giant Beast, descended directly from the sky and slammed into the ground not far from the Experimental Base!
Facing the terrifying force that made the earth tremble, the soldiers near the Experimental Base were all scared stiff, unable to stop retreating.
Then, seeing the various strange-looking Mutants pouring out from the bridge, many soldiers were even so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
A person who looked like a soldier leader nervously shouted into a megaphone: "This is the Experimental Base, please leave quickly! Otherwise, an exchange of fire may occur!"
Magneto looked down at the surrounding soldiers with disdain and said calmly, "Kill them all!"
