In a person's life, they would meet many old friends at many times. Most of the time, the meeting of old friends was a happy thing, but there were also times when the meeting of acquaintances meant awkwardness, confrontation, and struggle.
This was especially true for friends who had already parted ways. When they realized that another person had gone further and further away, the most appropriate thing to do was not to disturb them anymore. Unfortunately, not everyone understood this truth.
"Ding."
The door was gently pushed open. Dorothy, who was leaning against the headboard and reading a book, put down the book. A faint smile appeared on her face. It was this time again. The girls had probably come to see her again.
This was the care unit of Gotham's Wayne Hospital. Dorothy had been seriously injured in New York, but after a period of rest, she had almost recovered. She had returned to Gotham with Saber a few days ago and stayed here. The Mutant's physique gave her a healing ability that was far beyond that of ordinary people, but healing was a process. Dorothy also enjoyed this leisure time. After gradually adapting to another way of life, she could finally regain her distant childhood dreams in her free time.
But when she turned her head, the smile on her face disappeared.
It was a guy she had almost forgotten. The figure was elongated in the not-so-dazzling light of the ward. He stood quietly at the door of the ward like a pillar, and there seemed to be another person behind him.
Dorothy put aside the book at hand and whispered in a cold tone.
"I don't remember contacting you recently! I also don't remember you having such rights of passage in this city. Leave now, and I can pretend that I didn't see you. "
She raised her head and glanced at the two men. There was a hint of threat in her voice.
"You know who's here, so don't cause trouble for yourselves."
"The Brotherhood is calling for you."
Azazzo looked at his former subordinate and said in a soft voice, "Magneto needs your strength."
"Needs? Haha … "
Dorothy sat up from the hospital bed with difficulty and stood on the ground with a cane. She pulled open the corner of her clothes behind her, revealing her waist under her clothes and a shocking scar on her skin.
"I also thought that Magneto needed me, and I also thought that the Brotherhood would be the last home of my life, but this is the response you gave me! When those bastards were torturing me, where were you, mighty Red Devil? Where's the independence and freedom that Eric Lancher promised? "
Dorothy's eyes were red, and she was gritting her teeth in anger.
"Just because I was' suspected 'of betrayal? How ironic! "
"My mortal enemy gave me freedom, but my comrade stabbed me in the back! So, now, I will say … "
Dorothy crossed her fingers and secretly pressed hard on the ring on her finger. Then, she opened her hands and two sharp water arrows appeared behind her, pointing directly at the two people in front of her.
"I'll say, Eric and his brother can go to hell. I'm free! And you … don't you dare come and disturb my life again! "
Azazzo seemed to want to say something, but the next moment, a purple hand was placed on Red Devil's shoulder. Azazzo's expression became dull at this moment. The person standing behind him stuck his head out, and his purple eyes showed a friendly but strange light. He even reached out his hand in a friendly manner and greeted Dorothy.
"Hello, mermaid."
"Beep Beep Beep"
Seiber, who was enjoying his supper, picked up his phone and placed it beside his ear. The next moment, Alanak's distinctive voice rang out. Seiber could hear the sound of weapons clashing through the phone. The enraged black man gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry.
"Boss, Miss Dorothy was taken away by those bastards from the Brotherhood! Santa is in the hospital, and we are trying to stop them. Erwin said that the magnetic force nearby is abnormal … Magneto, Magneto might be here! "
"Okay!"
Saber put down his chopsticks, picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth. He asked loudly, "Where did they go?"
"In the direction of the suburbs! It's in the northwest! In the Wayne Forest! "
Before the other party could finish, Saber jumped out of the window. A moment later, the black battle-ax's engine thundered through the entire street. The steel monster carried its knight and charged wildly. Saber did not wear a helmet, and he let the wind blow his hair. There was no fear in his eyes.
In fact, he also wanted to try and see if he could challenge a veteran powerhouse. Moreover, he still had a score to settle with the Mutants Brotherhood.
Wayne Forest was where Wayne Castle was located. As mentioned before, it was the territory of the Wayne family. Normally, Saber would love for the Brotherhood to go there and provoke the real boss of Gotham. But now, the battle between Bruce Wayne and Joker was getting more and more intense. Gotham's media was recently on drugs, and they followed up on the battle between Batman and the unknown forces.
In short, Batman might not be able to find the time to help him. But this was actually a good thing, because it meant that Batman would not hinder him from doing some things.
Sparks flew from the double-row tires as they moved through the forest covered with thick leaves. Even without the use of instruments, one could feel a special force in the air around them. Those who entered this place could not help but feel their hair stand on end. This was the chaotic superposition of magnetic forces. There was no other person in the world who could evolve magnetic forces to this extent.
"Click"
The black Tomahawk stopped in the deepest part of Wayne Forest. Saber jumped off the motorcycle. He stood in the empty forest and looked around. The surrounding air was extremely quiet. Even the chirping of birds and small animals disappeared. These creatures' perception of danger was not comparable to that of humans. They had left early.
"Eric, I'm here!"
Saber shouted, "Old man, don't play hide-and-seek like a child. Come out and see me!"
"Hum"
In the rolling night ahead, the chaotic magnetic forces suddenly became orderly. It was as if a curtain was pulled open, revealing the existence that was covered in the air. Magneto, wearing a black robe, stood less than 20 meters away from Saber. He had white hair and wore the iconic dark red helmet. Obviously, this trophy stored in Stark Industries had returned to its original owner.
He looked at Saber. His eagle-like eyes flashed with various emotions, from hatred, to contempt, and finally to appreciation. In just a few glances, his entanglement was vividly displayed.
"You are a special existence, Saber."
Magneto sighed and said, "Even if you destroyed my years of preparation, even if you destroyed the hope that was only one step away, I found that I can't hate you because your talent is so … so enviable."
"Whoosh"
The black warhammer bounced out of Seiber's hand. He lowered his head and put on his silver mask. Two balls of black flames coiled around his arms. He tilted his head, revealing two balls of dark-red eyes under the mask. He asked doubtfully, "What?
"Why, did I misunderstand you? Didn't you ask me to come here just for a fight? Or did I come to this damned place in the middle of the night just to listen to a dying old man say how good I am? "
In the end, Saber's voice had a trace of undisguised ridicule.
"I know how strong I am, and I know what kind of trash you are, so leave this rotten chicken soup for the soul to your excessively cute followers. There has never been a friendship between us, and I don't think we will have one!"
"So …"
He waved his hammer in the air, and the black flames drew a curtain of light in the darkness. His body jumped into the sky and smashed down with the warhammer in both hands, not giving Eric any more time to speak.
"Either leave Dorothy or get out of my city! Or, come and fight, and I will send you away with my fists! "
"Boom"
The surging magnetic force quickly converged at this moment, and a fluorescent energy shield appeared in the palm of Magneto's hand. The warhammer wrapped in black flames collided with the energy shield. More mysterious energy and more tyrannical power collided in the air, and the magnetic shield was smashed into an inward dent. In the distortion of light and shadow, the dim but extremely high energy level energy turned into a storm in the conflict. The thick leaves on the ground were directly lifted up into the air like a gust of wind, and some fell to the ground.
The energy storm of this punch quickly spread out in all directions. The surrounding thick trees were fiercely smashed by the strong wind, swaying back and forth in the air. It was as if a boxer had been hit by a fist, making crashing sounds. The silence of the entire forest was completely broken at this moment. It was as if two wild beasts were fighting in the forest, fighting for the title of king of all beasts.
However, it came quickly and left even faster. In less than five seconds, the energy storm that had spread throughout the entire battlefield had dissipated, leaving behind a devastated battlefield. A circular ground was formed, and within that circle, seven thick trees had been snapped in half. It was hard to imagine that this was only the aftermath of the battle that had affected this place.
"Boom"
Saber's feet landed on the ground and sank directly into the ground. He took a deep breath and switched the warhammer to his other hand. His left hand was behind his back, and his wrist was trembling abnormally. Obviously, his super-strong self-healing was working. Just now, he felt like he had hit a piece of the hardest steel, and the recoil alone had fractured his wrist.
"As expected of a veteran powerhouse, ha!"
In less than two seconds, Saber, whose wrist had recovered, put the warhammer on his shoulder and looked at Eric Lancher opposite him.
"Your tortoise shell is really strong!"
However, even Magneto himself didn't feel good after taking Seiber's full-powered attack head-on. This was something that couldn't be hidden, because after this attack, the magnetic field that permeated the entire forest disappeared. If Magneto didn't remove the magnetic field on purpose, there was only one reason left. He felt threatened, and he needed to gather all his strength.
"Stop!"
Seeing that Saber was about to rush over again with his warhammer, Magneto's voice suddenly rose by three degrees. "Stop this meaningless battle! I'm not here to fight with you! You barbaric guy! Dorothy was just an accident. If you want her, then I'll give her to you! "
With a wave of his hand, Dorothy, who was bound by steel, was thrown out of the dark forest in another direction and smashed at the feet of Saber. The latter did not immediately help Dorothy up. Instead, after repeatedly confirming that the girl in front of him was not Mystique, he reached out and lifted her up. There were no traces of injury on Dorothy's body. She just seemed to be unconscious.
Saber looked at Magneto. He sniffed and reached out to take back his warhammer.
"So, what do you want to do?"
"I just want to talk to you, Saber."
A gust of night wind blew the corner of Magneto's clothes. The old man's expression became solemn at this moment. He spread out his hands.
"When the situation has developed to a certain stage, it is difficult to balance the situation by relying on individual strength. So, I'm just here to confirm one thing. Are you interested in the future plan of the Mutant society?"
Eric glanced at Saber.
"If you are, I welcome you to join!"
After saying that, he paused for a few seconds.
"If not, then stay as far away from this matter as possible! The facts have proven your destructive power, and I don't want to see you on the upcoming battlefield. "
Saber's eyes narrowed at this moment, and he asked in an unfriendly tone.
"Is this a malicious warning?"
"No!"
Magneto shook his head and put his hands together very seriously. Fine steel fragments gathered from all directions and turned into a silver cane in his hand. He said softly, "This is just a kind reminder."
