Report

Weapon X was a finished product that Stryker spent 5 years to make. It was a secret weapon that Stryker prepared to use against Mutants. According to the original plan, his body should accommodate at least 10 different abilities, but due to frequent changes, the current Weapon X was not complete.

There were only six abilities: super endurance, super strength, adamantium alloy strengthening, laser eyes, super self-healing, and beast perception. But even so, once he was thrown into the battlefield of Mutants, he would definitely be able to set off a real bloody storm.

Stryker used the chip installed in the back of Weapon X's head to control him. He was somewhat inflexible, but his diverse abilities also ensured his combat effectiveness. The premise was that he had to be in a normal environment, not 350 meters underground.

Not all Mutants were like Catherine, able to pass through most materials. In fact, at this distance, the air was already thin to the extreme. Ordinary people would suffocate in less than a minute, but if this was the case, it really couldn't kill Weapon X.

Stryker typed frantically on the keyboard, entering one command after another. Weapon X raised his head with difficulty in the darkness. The blinded eyeballs in his eyes healed quickly, and then began to condense high-temperature laser eyes. With this killer weapon, the 350 meters underground would be blasted open with just a few impacts.

But Stryker was a little hesitant. If he released the laser eyes many times in a short period of time, it would make Weapon X enter a weakened state. This was actually normal. Mutants were not gods. Their X gene was special and could store a lot of energy in their cells, but this did not mean that they could be used as a perpetual motion machine.

Wolverine and Sabertooth, who had super endurance, would also be tired and would also faint when their vital parts were injured. This proved that they were humans who were stronger than ordinary people, but they were still humans and had not escaped the constraints of energy conservation. Unless it was the mysterious Omega Level Mutants, these existences often had the energy characteristics of "creating something out of nothing". It was hard to say whether their existence was considered normal human beings.

But the number of Omega Level Mutants was so small that even if all the Mutants in the past were added up, it would not exceed 100 people. For the entire human race, this was already a negligible number.

Stryker hesitated for a moment, but he finally gave the order. He couldn't allow his hard work to be buried underground silently. Secondly, even if Weapon X was in a weakened state, he didn't think that Saber could destroy him.

The sturdiness of adamantium was no joke. Even if he was hit by a high-yield weapon, his skeleton would not be destroyed!

But just after Stryker pressed the OK button, the door of the underground shelter in front of him was kicked open. Stryker saw Logan walking into the shelter from the monitor. His eyes narrowed, gritted his teeth, and quickly entered a command on the keyboard. Then, he picked up the silver-white revolver on the table and rushed out from the back door of the shelter.

Logan's nose twitched, and the claws on his fists popped out. He rushed into Stryker's office and saw the controller. He walked over and saw the time jumping quickly on the screen. Logan's Beast Perception completely dominated his body at this moment. He pounced forward, and the next moment, a spark came out of the controller's case.

"Boom!"

A sea of fire, and the violent vibration directly smashed Logan out. His back was burning, but he quickly recovered. He looked around, got up, and rushed into the passage leading to the surface.

On the other side, Weapon X, who had completely lost control, began to frantically open a hole in the underground soil with the edge of his eyes and climbed up with his hands and feet. The ground shook, and Saber glanced back and shouted.

"Everyone, back off!"

He pulled out the adamantium alloy knife from his back, held the handle with both hands, and took a deep breath. The heat in his body spread throughout his body along with the pain of stimulating his internal organs. The explosive power wandered inside his body, and every second brought great pain to Saber.

The bad consequence of the collapse of the genetic chain was that the situation inside his body was slowly deteriorating. There was a taste of rust in his mouth. Although his body had not collapsed yet, if the situation continued, this day would come sooner or later. The bag of Logan's blood had been sent back to Gotham by Lewis, and he hoped that Hawkins would not let him down.

The problem now was that he had to get rid of Weapon X first. He had to get rid of it. This was a real threat, and he could not allow it to continue to exist. Otherwise, Stryker and the people behind him would never give up. It was like a problem that could never be cut off.

For 10 seconds, Seiber maintained his posture of leaning on his long sword. He constantly adjusted his concentration and focused his mind. If he wasn't focused enough, he wouldn't be able to unleash a powerful attack.

Strength determined the minimum of destructive power, and will determined the maximum of destructive power. This was almost a rule of the world.

As for the adamantium alloy being indestructible? Saber had always thought that this was nonsense.

This was based on the adamantium alloy's hardness compared to other metals. But what if another adamantium alloy knife was used to cut it?

The previous cut had already cut Weapon X's neck into a V shape. If it was not for his strong self-healing ability, the battle would have been over long ago. This already proved that it was not indestructible.

In the case of the same hardness, was Saber's blade sharper, or was Weapon X's neck harder?

"I'm actually very curious myself … How hard can your bones be?"

Saber pursed his lips, and a mocking smile appeared on his face. He did not believe that he would be weaker than a pitiful creature under someone's control. The red light in his eyes flashed away. On the ground in front of him, two red laser beams rushed out of the ground, burning the sand around the ground into glass-like things. The vibration from the ground became more and more obvious, and that aura … seemed to have become much more frenzied.

Seiber could even hear his heavy breathing, which was something that had never happened in the previous battles. Breathing in disorder meant that his mind and will were in a mess, and it was almost impossible for a controlled war machine to have such an effect.

"This … is it out of control?"

This was good news.

The moment Weapon X's shaved head rushed out of the ground, Saber swung his sword. In the eyes of the panicked mutated human teenagers, this sword was like a light that pierced through the darkness. Because it was so fast, it even brought out a gorgeous light on their retinas.

"Bang!"

Weapon X, who had just crawled out of the ground, was sent flying into the air. His neck was sliced open by the fast moving blade. Blood splattered everywhere, and his silver-white spine was abnormally slanted outwards. Saber did not stop. He held his breath, exerted strength in his legs, and flew into the air. With both hands on his sword, the heat flow was once again stirred up.

The second slash was faster, more powerful, and more vicious than the first.

"Bang!"

With a dull sound, Weapon X's body was once again sent flying into the air. This time, the slash landed accurately on the previous slash. The blade grazed the spine, and sparks flew everywhere. Saber could feel the rough friction of the blade. His body landed on the ground, and he looked at Weapon X that was smashed to the ground.

He took a deep breath. At this moment, all the remaining heat flow in his body exploded. His will and concentration were also at their peak. The red light in his eyes had never been so bright before. At the moment when he was fully focused, a red light suddenly appeared on the body of Weapon X that was falling from the sky. The red light was evenly distributed across his body, except for the area around his neck. The red light was very scattered, and there was even a gap in the red light.

"Cut there!"

A thought appeared in his mind. As soon as this thought appeared, it took over all his thoughts. It was as if a beast had completely taken control of his body. He flew into the air again, and the long sword in his hands was infused with all the energy in his body. It was as if his will had penetrated into this sword.

"Break … for me!"

An extremely bright silver light flashed across the sky above Three Mile Island.

"Bang!"

Another dull sound, but this time, the blade did not graze the spine. Instead, it really cut into it. The layer of adamantium on Weapon X's spine was cut open!

Saber could feel that his blade had pierced into Weapon X's spine. It went all the way down, and it was as simple as cutting through a piece of ordinary steel.

Just as his blade completely cut through the obstruction, the red light covering Weapon X's body began to dissipate rapidly. When Weapon X's headless body fell to the ground, the red light had already weakened to the point where it could no longer be seen. The scenery in front of his eyes also quickly returned to its original state, and he even felt a little dizzy.

Behind him, Weapon X's head was smashed into the sand. His body was thrown more than ten meters away. Fresh blood flowed from the hideous wound, and it dyed the night sky with a trace of desolation.

The red light in Saber's eyes weakened. He felt a little warmth appear below his nostrils. He reached out his hand, and a red viscous liquid appeared at his fingertips.

Blood! Scorching blood.

"Cough cough."

He coughed twice, and dark red rotten blood spurted out from the corner of his mouth. The scorching pain from before came from his body again. It was as if he had returned to the situation when he was imprisoned for three years.

The speed of the gene chain breaking accelerated!

"Catherine …"

Saber shouted with difficulty. He sat on the ground with a plop. Catherine hurriedly ran over. Saber grabbed her arm and whispered.

"Go and check on Logan … Don't let Stryker escape …"

"Your body …"

"Don't worry, girl."

He reached out with a gentle smile on his face. It was more or less difficult. He patted Catherine's arm. "I won't die so easily. Be good, go and check on him. Help me catch him!"

"I have a lot to say to him …"

Saber's smile slowly turned cold. "Don't let him escape."

Catherine looked at him worriedly, turned around and jumped into the ground. Saber put the alloy knife on his leg. He looked at the severed skeleton in front of him and whispered.

"You see … I'm still more powerful, right?"

"You … How did you do it?"

A weak voice sounded behind him. Saber turned around and saw the girl. There were stains on her face, and there were traces of bullets on her clothes. She looked at the severed body of Weapon X in disbelief. She looked at Saber with admiration.

"You must be an Alpha Mutant, right? It's unbelievable. You must be one of those real powerhouses they talked about, right? "

"No, child."

Saber smiled. "In fact, I was just an Epsilon Level Mutant a year ago. When they all retreated, I saw you and Catherine fighting together. You're good."

"But I'm too weak. If it wasn't for my sister, I wouldn't have stood up …"

The girl scratched her head embarrassedly. She sat beside Saber and widened her eyes. "Can I be as strong as you in the future?"

"Am I very strong?"

Saber chuckled. "You will, child. I can see the hope of becoming stronger in your eyes. People with this kind of hope usually have good luck."

He raised his head and looked at the white dawn in the sky.

"The desire to become stronger will only stop when you feel that you're strong enough … I, I'm still far from that."

The girl next to him smiled foolishly and wanted to say something. At this moment …

Bang! Bang!

Two gunshots broke the silence before dawn. Saber's expression immediately became serious. He held the hilt of his knife with his left hand. Just as he moved, a sharp pain came from his abdomen.

"Child, cough, cough. Help me up!"
