Chapter 640 7. If the differences have disappeared, enemies can also become friends, right? [Monthly ticket plus 510]
Nine o'clock that night, fifteen minutes before the start of Operation "Cradle".
In a huge area under the new Osborne Tower, a total of 110 teams from 7 teams of the K-Men have arrived here. These are the "elites" carefully selected by Psylocke and Storm.
The reason for the double quotes is because they are not really elite.
Because their serial numbers are too late, the release of these guys' mutant abilities is very bad, but they are the most determined group of all recruits who have been "probated", and they have been in all conflicts since the formation of the K-Men. Play the whole game.
Skilled combat skills and clear goals, coupled with the addition of various sophisticated weapons provided by the Mason Manufacturing Corps, give them a combat capability that is not weaker than that of ordinary X-Men.
What's even better is that the paramilitary strategy and style that the K-Men have been adhering to since its establishment has made these fighters no longer have the bad atmosphere of the X-Men's freedom and slack.
Only from the silent formation of standing in line at this time, it can be judged that they all have great potential.
Strength is really not particularly important to mutants, because of the existence of the miraculous X gene, they often have an explosive power curve.
Willpower plays a leading role in it. In Mason's words, mutants, like Dachao, are a very idealistic group of people.
And most importantly, once Operation Cradle tonight is successfully implemented, not only will the obedience program at the genetic level of the cloned people be lifted, but their specially set "weakened" state will also be lifted. The insufficient K-Men will be transformed into the most destructive war vanguard under Mason's command.
Commander Lingdie is confirming the action plan with the captains of the seven teams for the last time.
Tonight they are going to capture the entire Weapon X project base. Although there are other companions, for such a tactical goal, a team of 110 people seems a bit thin.
But neither Spirit Butterfly nor the other captains intend to recruit more weaker clones to join the operation. They believe that this is a real test for the K-Men, and it is to determine whether the K-Men can break out of their cocoons and become butterflies. , can be a decisive moment for an important pillar of Lord Mason's grand plan.
Everyone who was able to come here was prepared to sacrifice and considered it an honor.
“I feel like if you let them **** explosives and die with the enemy, they won’t hesitate.”
At the edge of the place, a large group stared at the clones in front of them and complained to Mason next to them:
"How on earth did you do it? In Utopia for so many years, I have never seen such a fanatical mutant, even the Brotherhood under Magneto, which is known for its unity and madness, can't do this.
Are you brainwashing them? "
"If you call the devotion to great beliefs and the establishment of ideals to save compatriots brainwashing."
Mason replied casually, leaving Daqun and the little fairy Hope beside him speechless.
The chief captain is busy helping Emma adjust the final preset program of the brain wave enhancer. Engineer Mason's craftsmanship is outstanding. The original full-covered round helmet has been transformed into a very artistic crystal helmet. In addition to the heavy helmet that covers the eyes, the eye protection part is also adjusted to a translucent pink high-strength material.
This makes Emma not only lack the low-key temperament of the Supreme Professor's "abstinence system" after wearing it, but also highlight a more charming and enchanting style.
The White Queen herself is also very satisfied with the transformation of this helmet, especially the message that Mason left on the helmet to the best mother in the world made her feel warm in her heart.
Of course, this gift would have been perfect if she hadn’t completely lost the sense of her legs due to the weight of the psychic power raised to the limit.
"I hate wheelchairs!"
The commander-in-chief's mother complained:
“No matter how luxurious you make it, and no matter how in line with my aesthetics, it can’t change my dislike for this thing. At the beginning, I felt that Professor X’s appearance in a wheelchair was very stupid.
I must look stupid now, too, right? "
"No, very handsome."
Mason replied, but Emma didn't believe it at all.
She felt that she had been tricked by a bad son, but she couldn't get off the boat easily. The impact of the brain wave booster on the body was continuous. Even if she took it off now, Emma would have to spend it in a wheelchair. A period of recovery.
But although I hate this feeling, the limit strengthening and increase of spiritual power is real.
Emma, who is lying on the suspended wheelchair dotted with gems, can easily bring the emotional perception of all the lives in the whole new world into her mind with a thought.
"There is something in the Forbidden Forest."
Emma, who was traveling in the Protoss ocean, said to Mason:
"I knew something was wrong with that forest! I always felt that someone was spying on me when I went out there before."
"The forest is alive, and after Ivy brought its seeds out of the ruined world and transplanted them here, it is recovering."
Mason explained while fine-tuning the program:
"It's harmless, at least for now, don't worry about it."
"But there seems to be a wonderful change in it. The Pegasus lost by the Amazons is being changed by that forest. They may become unicorns in the future."
Emma says:
"Also, the missing Amazons are found, drawn into a twisted but resourceful fold near the North Pole.
Those muscular girls are happy about this, they are deliberately avoiding the search team sent by Norman, and they don't want to be found by you again.
They thought it was a gift from God and planned to rebuild their paradise island in that deep space. After welcoming back their queen, they would return to their previous independent attitude. "
"Let them go, their long service in the servants of the K-Legion has earned them the freedom to choose their future."
Mason didn't care about these, he asked:
"Is the current program running smoothly? To execute Operation Cradle, you must have a level 3 control over the brainwave enhancement device."
"Tch, ma'am, I've reached level 5, and I'm breaking through level 6."
The White Queen said arrogantly:
"Have some confidence in your poor mother, okay? Looking at the entire mutant world, I haven't been afraid of anyone except Professor X in the confrontation of psychic power.
However, it is very interesting for the Supreme to teach these spiritual skills. I have never discovered that this kind of power can be used in this way before. Oh, I have learned it. "
"Then you can continue playing."
Mason was relieved when he heard Emma say this. He got up from the floating wheelchair, checked the time on his watch, and then looked at the passage behind him.
Under his gaze, the last few "travelers" came here almost stuck.
Headed by the lieutenant Magneto with only one arm left, behind him are the expressionless Storm and Iceman, and the Mystique who is very afraid of Mason.
These are the high-level commanders of the first sequence of the conquerors. They are called "generals", and they are proper high-level enemy forces.
"Did you read the plan I sent you?"
Mason lit a cigarette in the dark, and the purple flame flickered in his palm. He asked a casual question, and the four people in front of him were silent.
A few seconds later, Magneto, the adjutant who had cooperated with Mason in the Isu world before, said:
"I saw it. Even though I don't believe the truth about Utopia's backstabs described in your plan, I am still shocked."
"So what? Are you going with us?"
Mason says:
"Come with us to attack the secret clone base under the command of the first sequence, and assist us to complete the cradle operation tonight, so as to regenerate the destroyed Utopia, and at the same time let the first sequence get rid of the dilemma of being controlled forever."
"We do!"
Storm behind Magneto said in a deep voice:
"But not for the reasons you said, Utopia. It deserves to be destroyed! We just want to see for ourselves whether the so-called Cradle Project is real.
After all, everything you said is too unbelievable. "
"What if it really is true?"
"After everything turns out to be nothing more than the best efforts of the Supreme Professor and his X-Royal family to keep mutants alive? The backstabs and betrayals you believe don't exist, even if it weren't for your efforts under Doom's sinister guidance Counterattack, maybe Madeleine's fate will be diverted that night."
"Wait until it's proven."
The one-armed Magneto shook his head and said:
"I won't hide it from you, we are in a mess right now, and we can't give you an answer."
"He's telling the truth."
Emma, who was beside Mason, slowly floated up in a luxurious wheelchair with great spiritual power. In the twilight beating driven by the antimatter engine inside the brain wave strengthening machine, she said:
"They already believed it.
They just can't find a reason to convince themselves to accept the truth. If all this is true, then their persistent confrontation in the past ten years is meaningless.
Even their very existence has become a disguise used to hide the truth.
Ha, it’s like a book that I can read, and I can easily find answers to difficult questions. I finally understand Professor X’s true perception of the world on weekdays.
In addition, Mason, there are still a group of people who are not on the action list approaching.
They're going to join the action tonight too, and you probably won't be able to persuade them. "
As soon as the White Queen finished speaking, the elevator leading to the underground area opened beside Mason, and a group of Utopian remnants headed by Supreme Cyclops came out.
Including the group of Supreme Primarchs who broke out from the siege to find Mason's help, as well as the little mystery and her tall Colossus brother, who was entwined with fine arcs of thunder.
That was the energy enhancement effect covered when Mason used the Thunder Forging Hammer to repair metal injuries when he was doing "first aid" for him.
Looks pretty cool.
Although Supreme Cyclops, Little Mystery, and Colossus have lost the blessing of the Phoenix Force, they are powerful X-Men themselves, and they will naturally have an irresistible momentum when they come forward.
When they stepped out of the elevator, they saw the one-armed Magneto, two Omega generals, and a high-ranking commander. Although there was no verbal communication, the tense confrontation between the two sides was still easily captured by Mason. .
There is a deep blood feud between the two.
Not to mention that it was a time when Utopia had just been destroyed, and it was already a great deal of face for Mason to fight without meeting each other.
"You have not recovered."
Mason looked at the people on crutches and bandages in the crowd, he shook his head and said:
"It's just adding to the chaos."
"But you can't make us miss the scene when Project Cradle is executed. We have to make sure it can be completed. It means a lot to us."
Supreme Cyclops said something in a serious tone.
This guy was blind in one eye, and the other eye was seriously injured by Madeleine. If it wasn't for the rejuvenation of first aider Mason, he would almost have become a cripple.
However, the rays of Cyclops only seem to need to be emitted from the eyes. This ability is not based on vision. As long as the eyeball structure is intact, even if he is blind, he can shoot a devastating laser beam.
It’s just that the accuracy is estimated to be close, after all, the blind sharpshooter sounds unbelievable.
"Take us, Mason!"
The little secret guest also grabbed his phoenix-shaped soul sword and shouted:
"Sister Swordsman couldn't come, but she entrusted me to see the rebirth of mutant civilization tonight for her."
Their prayer was seen by Mason, the captain thought for a moment, stretched out a finger, and said:
"Yes! But you have to promise me one request. These are the guests I 'invited' over in the first sequence, and you represent the Primarch of Utopia.
I want you to let go of your hatred and antagonism towards each other before you act.
I think this is the true meaning of the Cradle Project left by the professor. He told me that only when utopia is destroyed with hatred and darkness can the mutants really usher in the dawn.
You must turn your enemies into friends, or neither of you will go! I'll be doing this on my own with my K-Men. "
“This is a hate that lasted more than a decade.”
The group next to it couldn’t help but say:
"It's impossible to heal with just one word from you, and the scars caused by time can only be repaired by time."
"I'm not so naive as to see a handshake and feel that we can be friends."
Mason said stubbornly:
“But if both parties don’t even have the courage to take the first step, then even if the Cradle Project is really implemented, the utopia created is just another stupid gathering place for racism.
I think this is not the future that the Supreme Professor and members of the X royal family want to see. "
"I do!"
Cyclops Prime took a step forward and held out his hand to the one-armed Magneto, saying:
"I hate you guys, I don't hide it, you were responsible for the destruction of Utopia, but I also have to admit that after watching the Cradle Project, I realized that we weren't innocent in this either.
I do not guarantee that the conflict between the two parties will be calmed because of tonight's actions.
But I can guarantee that from now on, I will try not to treat you as enemies anymore.
Utopia is gone, and the entity you hate has been destroyed by your own hands. I think that no matter how huge the resentment is, it is time to dissipate.
what about you?
What do you say? "
"I am not the commander of the first sequence."
Adjutant Magneto said with a cold face:
"I'm not qualified to make such a decision for Lady Madeleine. But from my personal point of view, if the Cradle Project is true, and if everything disclosed by Mason is true, then this hatred is indeed over. meaning.
I am willing to accept the settlement.
But let me explain in advance that this is only my personal decision and does not represent others. "
"Madeleine is no longer your commander in chief."
Emma, who was watching this scene, said softly:
"When she transformed into Dark Phoenix, she was no longer a pure mutant or clone. She may have had some kind of faith to support it before, but it was just that faith could not help her get through the current troubles at all.
You should understand this, and not follow a creature that would wreak horrific destruction. "
"It's just our personal decision!"
The clone generals didn't seem to hear Emma's words at all, they stepped forward to shake hands with the utopian mutant primarchs in front of them.
Everyone must declare this sentence.
In fact, it is also understandable that this is a conflict and feud caused by the **** conflict between the two ethnic groups. In the face of such pressure, personal will is no longer important.
But the hard first step is at least taken.
"It's good to see you and the children who are at odds shake hands and announce reconciliation under the orders of the teacher. I must admit that what just happened means a lot to me.
Well, time is up. "
Mason complained, looked at his watch again, and said to everyone in front of him when the countdown reached zero:
"Arranging equipment, ready to go! Operation Cradle, officially opened!"
