Chapter 285 - Such a Lax Security

Wanda had already given up hope when Aaron nodded. "I do have a few methods."

"Ah!"

I just asked, and you actually have a way.

"The simplest method is to reverse time. As long as time is rewound to the very beginning, wouldn't all troubles be solved?"

"This isn't difficult. Wakanda, Reed, and Tony can handle it with a little time."

Wanda shook her head. "No, that would only create another timeline. But that is indeed a method."

Aaron thought for a moment. If he were to reverse time, he believed he could bring the matter back on track.

"There's another way, but..."

Aaron didn't continue.

The matter of the Primordial Furnace must absolutely not be told to anyone.

Wanda sensed that Aaron didn't want to speak, and although she was anxious, she couldn't force Aaron to do it.

In any case, Aaron is a Celestial. She couldn't treat him the way she treated Dormammu.

Wanda gave Magik a look and the latter nodded knowingly.

Operation: Capture Aaron, commence!

Magik subconsciously looked at Luna. However, Luna was completely unaware of the deep meaning in their eyes.

Luna asked confusedly, "Are your eyes tired?"

Magik was speechless.

Looking at the other party's clear and innocent gaze, Magik was stunned.

But... bullying such an innocent girl, she felt a bit conflicted.

However...

Magik, who was abducted to Limbo at the age of seven and dealt with demons, was by no means simple.

If necessary, she wouldn't mind making some "sacrifices."

Looking at Aaron's overly handsome face she secretly thought, 'Actually, this isn't really a sacrifice, is it?'

During their conversation, everyone arrived at the center of Krakoa Island.

They met Magneto and Storm, among others.

During this process, Magik intentionally or unintentionally approached Aaron, trying to gather information.

Aaron knew what she was doing and was happy to see it.

Magik's action allowed Aaron to successfully acquire her abilities.

[Power of Limbo: You possess authority over the Limbo dimension, capable of freely mobilizing its power, and also able to open portals to various dimensions or realities through Limbo.]

[Soulsword: Detected similar ability (Unhealing Scratch). Fusion completed. Your attacks possess powerful magic-breaking effects and the ability to suppress healing factors, causing difficult-to-recover injuries to enemies on both physical and magical levels, while its power will increase with injected energy and absorbed magic and Soul Power.]

[Super-Dimensional Body: Your Celestial Body's magic resistance is further enhanced, rendering most black magic ineffective against you.]

Aaron's eyes flashed.

Magik's strength was ordinary, but the enhancements she brought him were quite good.

Especially the Soulsword, which was even more powerful than Magik's original version.

This was the magic-breaking attribute. Those Dimensional Rulers and ancient Gods known for their magic had truly become little kids before him.

Marvel version of Asta?

Your magic is useless against me.

And I have a sword, enough to tear through all magic barriers.

Even if you have a magic body, you cannot escape the power of my sword.

Aaron nodded in satisfaction.

"Wolverine, who are they?"

Magneto and Storm looked at Aaron and his group with some vigilance.

Although he was very satisfied with the treatment of Mutants in the 2099 Universe, he instinctively rejected other strangers.

"This is Sorcerer Supreme Wanda, and this is Illyana Rasputin or Magik, Lord of Limbo, she is also a Mutant."

Magneto's expression improved significantly.

As long as they were Mutants, they were friends.

"And this is... Aaron, a God from another Universe." Wolverine introduced Aaron even more cautiously.

Magneto frowned deeply.

Another God?

Honestly, he somewhat disliked these so-called Gods.

Magneto had no ordinary person's reverence for so-called Gods.

Before, he had encountered Thor who claimed to have lived for thousands of years and was an object of worship for ancient humans.

When they first met, he acted all high and mighty.

But when they actually fought...

He could only say that his strength was not bad. But compared to him, Thor was still a tiny bit inferior.

"So it's a God, huh? Welcome to Krakoa Island for a visit." Magneto spoke very calmly, without much enthusiasm.

Instead, he was very warm towards Magik.

Wolverine was a bit embarrassed, subconsciously glancing at Aaron, fearing that he might get angry. But Aaron didn't care at all.

Aaron looked around, observing the surroundings.

Honestly, he had always been curious about the so-called Mutant nation, Krakoa Island.

But now it seemed... quite ordinary.

In terms of technology, it was only slightly more advanced than the era he came from. However, in the 2099 Universe, it seemed overly backward.

During their conversation, Aaron had already searched through Krakoa Island's data world.

In his judgment, Krakoa Island's defensive security system was rudimentary. There were many Mutants, but patrol security was not given much importance.

Moreover, it lacked a powerful monitoring system. If someone wanted to sneak in and cause trouble, the X-Men would be almost helpless.

No wonder in the original work, Mutants nearly went extinct several times.

The emergence of Krakoa Island brought Mutant powers together. However, the uncoordinated defense system made Mutants even easier to wipe out in one go.

Storm noticed Aaron's unusual behavior and asked, "What do you think of this place?"

Aaron shook his head. "Very good, excellent."

Storm frowned. "But you don't look like it."

"I mean, as your enemy, it's excellent."

Magneto, hearing this, said with some annoyance, "Then, what is your esteemed opinion?"

Aaron's right hand made a grasping motion, and an ordinary lightning rod appeared.

"That's it? A lightning rod?"

Magneto chuckled. "I don't think our island has any chance of being struck by lightning."

Aaron wasn't annoyed, he said softly, "This is the Illusion-Breaking Divine Needle. In addition to its basic lightning protection effect, it also has the ability to see through illusions, distinguish phantoms, see through invisibility, and discern truth from falsehood."

"In short, shapeshifters like Mystique, as well as invisible people, will not be able to infiltrate near Krakoa Island."

Magneto's eyebrows twitched upon hearing this.

He felt a bit stung.

This thing... is quite powerful.

Aaron continued, "I don't know what you're thinking, the entire island barely has any surveillance."

"If I were you, I would at least set up a system to cover the entire island with surveillance, and then have a few Mutants specializing in electronics be responsible for monitoring."

"Do you think Krakoa Island is far from human nations, so you can rest easy?"

"I also found that there are no patrolling X-Men on the outer perimeter of the island. You really have no idea about the predicament of your Mutants."

Magneto and Storm remained silent.

At this moment, applause was heard,

Professor X slowly appeared with the help of Cyclops.

"Thank you for pointing out the shortcomings of Krakoa Island."

Aaron glanced at Professor X, then at Magneto.

"Exactly the same."

"Even after more than ten years, you, in different Universes, still haven't changed at all."

Professor X pondered. "It seems you've met us in other Universes? I wonder what the situation is like for us and the Mutants in that other Universe?"

Aaron said, "Erik is the Deputy Security Director of my company, currently dealing with some small rats for me."

"And you are assisting Erik, preventing him from harming the innocent, while the Mutant Academy you lead has also received some funding from me."

"Although they haven't established a Mutant nation, the current situation of Mutants is at least not like yours, where everyone is calling for their demise."
