Chapter 144 - The Attack Begins

Not far from the event venue stood the renowned Kennedy Stadium.

Built in 1961, the stadium was one of the first in the United States designed to host both American football and baseball games. It also served as the home field for many football and baseball teams.

Numerous musical artists had also performed there.

However, today, this stadium, which could accommodate nearly 20,000 spectators, was experiencing some "unrest."

Boom, boom, boom!

The sounds of concrete cracking echoed continuously.

A figure in the center of the stadium slowly floated into the air, and the entire stadium, including the spectator stands and the metal roof, rose with him, except for the central grass field!

Clang!

A staff member who was operating a machine to paint the track lines sat down on the ground, his eyes wide with shock, his legs trembling.

Too... terrifying!

Then, at the event.

Mystique, disguised as a Secret Service agent, slowly walked towards the front, reaching into her coat.

She was going to assassinate the President!

In the original timeline, it was her assassination attempt that sparked the fear of mutants in the general public. This also led the United States to increase its investment in Sentinel robot research. Ultimately, the Sentinels were deployed on a large scale within a few decades, committing genocide against mutants and even ordinary humans who might give birth to mutants!

"This is for you, my brothers and sisters!" Mystique thought, her steps growing firmer.

But her slightly agitated thoughts were finally noticed by Professor X, who had been preparing somewhere at the scene for a long time.

With so many people present, it was indeed difficult for Professor X to use his telepathic abilities to identify them one by one.

"Raven!"

Professor X's voice echoed in Mystique's mind, causing her to pause.

"I've found her!" Professor X controlled Mystique with his telepathy while simultaneously signaling the other X-Men.

The X-Men were already established at this point. The original members were Beast (Hank McCoy), Professor X, Magneto, and Mystique (Raven).

To counter Sebastian Shaw, the Black King, Professor X used a Cerebro-like device to locate mutants. He and Magneto recruited new members, including Angel, Havok, and Darwin.

Later, the CIA base was destroyed by the Hellfire Club. Havok's energy blasts were absorbed by the Black King, who used them to kill Darwin. Angel chose to leave with the Hellfire Club.

To continue tracking the Black King, Professor X turned his mansion into a training base.

Magneto personally killed the Black King, preventing a missile crisis.

However, this also showed humanity the potential threat of mutants for the first time.

This was also one of the reasons why ordinary humans developed Sentinel Robots to deal with mutants.

Ultimately, Professor X and Magneto had a huge disagreement on how to guide humanity's attitude towards mutants, and they eventually went their separate ways.

Professor X was accidentally injured by Magneto, losing the ability to walk.

Magneto then founded the Brotherhood of Mutants, with Havok, Angel, Mystique (Raven), and Azazel leaving to follow him.

Banshee, Havok, and Beast (Hank McCoy) remained with Professor X.

However, to deal with the attack launched by The Gentleman in alliance with three forces, Professor X used his abilities, guided by Wolverine from the future, to temporarily gather some people as helpers.

These included: Iceman, Banshee, Havok, Cyclops, and Jean Grey.

Plop! Plop!

Suddenly, more than twenty spectators in the audience collapsed to the ground, convulsing violently.

Immediately after, they let out low growls as their bodies began to swell and grow, sprouting green, scaled skin. Some even grew tails!

Lizard Men!

One after another, these Lizard Men rose and began to attack the people around them with savage fury.

Special agents, responsible for maintaining order at the scene, drew their guns and opened fire.

However, these Lizard Men, injected with the Lizard Serum, possessed the same incredible regenerative abilities as Doctor Lizard.

Even if a bullet from a handgun tore a bloody hole in them, they could heal in the blink of an eye!

And that wasn't all.

Not far away, some people shed their clothes, shouting "Hail HYDRA!" as they launched suicide attacks against the security personnel guarding the event.

Although they were obviously expendable, these actions did indeed hinder the security personnel's ability to support the event.

Chaos erupted.

The President, who had been boasting just moments before, was already running towards a safe room in the White House, protected by his guards, as soon as things went south.

Click, click, click, click—

A crisp mechanical sound echoed through the hall as the Sentinel Robots, which had been lined up on the exhibition platform to bolster the event, all sprang to life.

"Trask, this is fantastic! I thought these were just exhibits and couldn't be activated!" The President exclaimed in surprise, slowing his pace.

Bolivar Trask looked equally bewildered. "I, I didn't activate them? I haven't even had a chance to!"

Just then.

The Sentinel Robots began moving on their own, one after another.

Click, click, click, click-click. Their arms transformed into rotary machine guns, which began to spin at an incredible speed.

Flames of bullets erupted, spraying wildly across the venue.

Many people who couldn't escape in time were hit by the machine gun fire, cut in half, and killed instantly!

This scene nearly made Bolivar Trask's eyes pop out!

He immediately understood what was happening: Magneto was controlling the Sentinel Robots!

But how was this possible?

To counter Magneto's metal-controlling abilities, the Sentinel Robots were made without any metal components, constructed entirely from advanced new bio-composite materials.

Logically, they shouldn't be controllable!

But he had no idea.

During the transport of the Sentinel Robots to the venue, The Gentleman had discovered the information and relayed it to Magneto.

Magneto had used the train tracks, dismantling them into wires and integrating them into the Sentinel Robots' internal structure.

So, while he couldn't make any programmatic adjustments, he could still control them physically.

The abilities already built into the body, like machine guns and flight, could naturally be activated as well.

"Heh, go wild, go wild, cause a ruckus," The Gentleman, Gustav, chuckled, watching the scene unfold, and walked towards the perimeter of the event.

Just then,

BOOM!

A huge stadium descended from the sky!

The stadium's spectator stands, which were dozens of meters high, became the best cage, perfectly trapping the event and the Black Palace.

The impact of the landing caused everyone standing on the ground to stumble and fall.
