Jean Grey rapidly waved her hands, and the surrounding objects, regardless of size, were all thrown towards Red Tank, like a shower of flowers, dense and numerous.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Red Tank crashed forward with his head, his speed towards her not slowing down in the slightest.
Closer, closer, even closer—
Seeing that there was no way to block or avoid him, Jean Grey gritted her teeth and mobilized the weak Phoenix Force within her to prepare to take the hit head-on.
"Slap!"
Just then, a hand suddenly grabbed Jean Grey's ankle. Jean Grey looked down in surprise and saw the scruffy man lying on the ground, grinning in a disheveled but smug manner.
"Good luck, X-Men!"
"Not good!" Jean Grey cried out inwardly. With this distraction, it was too late to mobilize the Phoenix Force.
"Thump thump thump—thump thump thump—"
The footsteps, like an earthquake, were getting closer and closer. Looking up, the grim-faced Red Tank was already within reach.
Despair filled Jean Grey's heart, and she subconsciously wanted to close her eyes, but just then, the Red Tank, who should have charged over, suddenly vanished.
She was stunned.
The smug scruffy man was also stunned.
"Su, Samuel?" Jean Grey thought to herself. At this time, the only one who could save her and was capable of saving her was Samuel.
Moreover, she did indeed sense Samuel, but the sensation was intermittent and illusory, making her unable to be certain.
Now, it was confirmed!
The space in front of her twisted and changed. Jean Grey recognized the background as a room in the school at a glance. Of course, she also saw Samuel, Nightcrawler, Anna, and...
Stacy X, who had been an enemy before.
The scruffy man also saw Stacy X. Although he didn't know what had happened, this was one of their own, so he shouted without thinking, telling her to attack quickly.
Stacy X was very awkward.
Attack?
Attack my foot!
Are you blind or stupid? Can't you see what kind of situation I'm in right now?
"Anna, how's your control training going? Go try it. If you don't die in thirty seconds, my sports car is yours." Samuel looked at Anna.
Anna nodded, raised her right hand, removed the nano-suit glove from her hand, and crossed space to stand in front of the scruffy man.
The scruffy man was a little flustered: "You, what do you want to do?"
"Ah..."
Anna's hand touched the scruffy man's face. The scruffy man cried out in surprise, and then under the horrified gazes of Jean Grey and Stacy X, his face quickly withered.
Thirty seconds is neither long nor short.
Although Anna tried her best to control her ability and slow down the absorption speed, before the thirty seconds were up, the scruffy man had already died from exhaustion of vitality.
Anna withdrew her hand with a complex expression. Although she was no longer a simple and naive girl after Samuel's education, she still couldn't be so indifferent.
It could only be said that she had experienced too little.
"There are so many enemies here, don't waste them. As long as one of them can last for thirty seconds, my promise still counts."
The few guys lying on the ground were not good people. Only Angel was from a wealthy family and hadn't done anything bad, but since he joined the Brotherhood of Mutants, he had to bear the corresponding consequences.
You can't hit others, and then when others hit you, you say you haven't done anything bad or were forced to, right?
Watching her former colleagues being absorbed to Death one by one under Anna's designation, Stacy X felt extremely fortunate and was very grateful to the guy who had thrown her into the river earlier, otherwise she would have died from Anna's 'hand of Death'.
"Where did that big guy go?" Jean Grey breathed a sigh of relief and asked Samuel.
Samuel smiled and said, "Red Tank is almost unstoppable when he runs, so I specially designed an endless space for him, letting him run forever."
She didn't understand, but it didn't matter...
Jean Grey looked up at the ceiling: "I don't know if Storm and the others succeeded, let's go help..."
"Boom!"
A loud noise interrupted her words, followed by the surrounding area instantly plunging into darkness.
Power outage?
No, Shadowcat succeeded!
At the top of the Statue of Liberty, Storm and the others faced Magneto, but they were routed as soon as they engaged, one by one being slapped against the wall by steel plates and bars.
If Storm hadn't cleverly used Samuel as a shield to scare Magneto, creating an opportunity for Shadowcat to phase through the machine, causing a power outage and stopping the machine, they would have had no chance to stop Magneto.
Don't look at Old Wan being bullied by Samuel without any temper at all. In fact, he is, after all, the leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants, one of the two well-known Mutant giants. Although Storm and the others are numerous, they are no match at all...
Magneto didn't know that Shadowcat had only interrupted the power. He thought the machine had been destroyed, and coupled with Samuel also being here, he felt that his plan was hopeless, and he flew away from the Statue of Liberty, stepping on a steel plate, filled with resentment.
Storm and the others regained their freedom. Just as they were about to check on Shadowcat and the Mutant chained to the machine, they felt a slight tremor, and then to their surprise, they found that they had already returned to the school.
"Jean, are you alright?" Storm asked anxiously when she saw Jean Grey.
Jean Grey shook her head and glanced at Samuel beside her.
Storm nodded to Samuel and at the same time noticed Stacy X behind Samuel. She wanted to ask why she was here, but on second thought, she didn't speak.
"Katie, are you alright?" Storm turned to look at Shadowcat, who was being supported by Petra.
Shadowcat's face was a little pale, and she shook her head weakly: "I'm fine, I'll be fine after some rest."
Storm stared at her for several seconds, and after confirming that she was not in serious condition, she looked at the man who was caught by Magneto and chained to the machine.
"You..."
"Who are you? Where is this place?!"
As soon as Storm spoke, the other party interrupted her as if he had taken gunpowder.
"We saved you, and that's your attitude?" Storm's face turned cold.
The other party did not relax his guard because of this, glanced at the door, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for saving me, but I should go."
After speaking, he walked straight towards the door.
"Meeting an old friend, are you leaving without even saying hello?"
The man instantly stopped, his eyes fixed on Samuel: "Old friend... You know me?!"
Samuel nodded: "I know."
"Who am I? What's my name!" the man asked eagerly.
Samuel slightly raised the corner of his mouth and clenched his fist. Three Adamantium claws slowly extended.
"Your name is Logan, Logan Howlett or James Logan, James Howlett, either is fine!"
Logan also extended his claws, looking at Samuel's identical claws, and muttered: "What about you, who are you? And what is your relationship with me?"
"Can't you tell?" Samuel looked down at his claws and said faintly: "I am... I am your father!"
