A massive beam of red energy shot out, instantly striking a Sentinel robot.
The next second, the Sentinel was sted away, and its body began to shimmer with a
diamond-like sheen, attempting to transform and withstand the attack.
Unfortunately, facing the concentrated beams of countlesssers, this was beyond its limit. Most of its body was destroyed.
With a thud, it crashed to the ground and didn''t move for a long time.
The viewers were shocked.
"His flight speed is so fast, and he can reflect energy?"
"The Sentinel robot was destroyed just like that?"
At this moment, the boy seemed almost inhuman to them, as if he were one with the world around him, with everything in harmony.
Apanied by that strange melody, countless viewers became tense.
Fortunately, the following scene made them breathe a sigh of relief.
The Sentinels, realizing they couldn''t attack in unison, changed tactics and began attacking Syd Castell withsers one by one.
Red beams of light streaked through the sky, and Syd dodged continuously.
If not for his enhanced flight speed, he might have been hit already.
Of course, if this continued, it was only a matter of time before he was struck.
Seeing him dodging left and right, the viewers felt a bit pleased.
"Ha, no matter how strong you are, you can''t beat so many Sentinels!"
"What''s the big deal about taking down one or two Sentinels? Let''s see you take down a whole bunch!"
The viewers were excited, as were Dr. Bolivar Trask and Base Commander Alessandro, who were secretly watching. Seeing the Sentinels gaining the upper hand, they felt a surge of hope.
The first battle against mutants was going well. Victory was near?
[Dark Particle Experience +1]
A dark particle appeared in Syd''s hand and shot like a bullet towards a Sentinel robot 18 meters away.
Despite the Sentinel''s quick reaction and its transformation into diamond, it couldn''t withstand the dark particle''s attack.
With a piercing sound, arge ck hole appeared in the Sentinel''s chest, flickering with internal fire.
"Another one down?"
"Can''t absorb and analyze this ability?" Dr. Trask watched the Sentinel robot with a surprised expression.
While Alessandro and the others were secretly shocked, Syd frowned.
There were too many Sentinels. Even if he took down two, there were still over ny left. Even if they stood still, he might not be able to take them all out.
Unless...
He used Sunshine!
But using Sunshine would consume almost all his photon energy. If more Sentinels appeared, he wouldn''t know how to deal with them.
Syd was sure the government had probably nned for this.
So, he hesitated, unsure whether to use Sunshine.
While Syd was battling the Sentinels, the X-Men found the missing Jean Grey.
In the scorching midday sun, Jean, Margaret, and the others were heading towards the sensed location when they saw Professor Charles Xavier, Erik, Logan, Chris, and others blocking their way.
Jean''s expression wasplicated.
"Jean,e back with us," Professor X said, moving his wheelchair forward and extending his right hand, his expression pleading.
Margaret stepped forward, chuckling, "She''s not a child anymore. She can go wherever she wants."
"No..." Professor X started to say something, then stopped, confused, "Who are you?"
He found he couldn''t prate the woman''s mind with his psychic powers, as if she were wearing a psychic-blocking helmet like Erik.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
So, he was puzzled.
"Jean..." Logan stepped forward, wanting to say something.
Jean looked at them calmly, "I feel fine now. I don''t need to go back."
Logan tried to move forward, but a powerful telekic force wrapped around him and sent
him flying.
With a thud, hended far away, dust rising.
"Logan!"
Storm''s hands crackled with electricity, and she shot a bolt of lightning at Jean, hoping to
stun her.
Boom!
The white lightning streaked through the air.
Jean, dressed in red, with her red hair flowing and her eyes turning ck, had energy patterns appearing on her face.
She raised her hand quickly, deflecting the lightning bolt.
The bolt struck the ground far away.
"What?"
Storm and the others were shocked.
Erik waved his hand, and a silver chain flew from a corner, aiming to bind Jean.
In an unexpected turn, Jean just nced at the chain, and it froze in midair, unable to move.
Erik frowned, exerting his power.
But no matter how much he tried, the chain didn''t budge.
"Your maism can''t affect me," Jean said, her red hair flowing and her eyes pitch ck, her
face filled with joy. Herughter echoed around them.
"This feeling is great."
As sheughed, buildings around them began to rise from the ground, creating a terrifying
scene.
Boom, boom, boom!
With a wave of her hand, the silver chain flew away.
For a moment, Logan and the others were stunned.
Jean seemed invincible and terrifying.
Not only could Professor X''s psychic powers not prate her mind, but Erik''s maism
was no match for her telekinesis.
She easily lifted over a dozen buildings.
And they believed this wasn''t even Jean''s limit.
Professor X knew this well.
Even as a child, Jean''s telekinesis could lift all the cars in a town, let alone now.
Meanwhile, Margaret continued to incite her, "Jean, I''ve always said you are gifted. They
can''t match or understand you."
"You are the most special being on this!"
"Facing the unknown, they fear you and will try to control you. Don''t believe them. Follow
your heart. Do what you want."
Margaret slowly enticed.
"Jean, don''t believe her," Professor X tried to say something.
Seeing this, Erik took a different approach.
He looked at Jean, surrounded by dark energy, and said seriously, "Do you remember our first
meeting?"
"Do you know what I saw in you?"
