Pixie led the others to hide in a dark sewer. The environment here was terrible, the smell was bad, and there was disgusting garbage everywhere, but the smell was at least better than death.
Just less than 15 meters above their heads, on the battlefield that had just been fought, heavily armed soldiers were checking little by little, searching for the bold intruders. In the dark shadows, the war fortress-like mechs that were destroyed by Saber before stood around the villa. They were the real guardians of this place.
This is a residential area near the White House in Washington. The people who can live here are naturally rich and powerful, but the villa in front of them is not the same. It is a cage used to imprison some of the most powerful people.
This cage is nearly 150 meters below the ground. Its last resident is named Eric Lancel, the radical leader of the Mutants. The most ridiculous thing is that its current resident is named Charles Francis Xavier, the gentle leader of the Mutants.
The bipolar members of the Mutants society have stayed in this cage, which obviously shows that this place is not ordinary. Most importantly, in the records of SHIELD, this cage should be in an idle state at the moment. In other words, the professor was locked here by illegal means without any normal procedures.
That was why Felicity couldn't find any clues even after searching the internet. This was simply a 'ghost' operation. Even the owner of the prison didn't know that there was a guest in his prison, so how could others know about it?
"That place is in that house. I can feel a powerful will being imprisoned inside!" That must be Professor Charles! "
The female Mutant next to Pixie gritted her teeth and said. Her left arm was scratched by a bullet, and another Mutant was helping her deal with the wound. She was the leader who questioned Pixie before, and also the leader of more than 30 Mutants.
"So this is why you brought us here to die?"
Pixie was about to go crazy. She just wanted to find a place to rest and then return to Gotham, but found this Mutant organization. Although there was a small misunderstanding at first, after clarifying, they allowed Pixie's request to rest and invited Pixie to do a "great thing" together.
Although their strength was not worth mentioning in Pixie's eyes, to be honest, this organization's strength was actually not bad. More than 30 Mutants were not lower than Gamma-level and had a certain level of combat power. Their leader, the woman named Carlitos, was a rare non-aligned Beta Level Mutant.
She wavered between radical and moderate, so she hadn't joined any faction yet. In addition to her super agility, speed, and mid-level teleportation, she could also rely on her own senses to determine the approximate level of the mutated human. This was also the reason why she was so crazy.
She led the Mutants directly into the house, but they were quickly attacked by the soldiers stationed there. If it was just the soldiers, it would not be a problem for these experienced Mutants. However, when the steel monster-like war machines came out of the darkness, the defense line of the Mutants collapsed instantly. If Pixie had not found a way out in advance, they would have been wiped out.
"We have to save Professor Charles!"
Carlitos's face was filled with determination. She said in a low voice, "I used to think that Magneto was right, but now he is leading the Mutants into the abyss. He encouraged us to stand up and fight back, but after we took action, the reinforcements he promised us were nowhere to be found! I was fooled by him! "
"He even encouraged all the Mutants to march to California. This is madness! I don't know how many people will die. Only by saving Professor Charles can we restore stability to this dangerous situation! "
The girl with the strange trident tattoo on her face grabbed Pixie's hand and looked at her.
"You are the first Alpha-level Mutant I've met. You can definitely lead us in!"
"You're crazy!"
Pixie flung her hand away and shouted, "Even if I can do it, I won't do it! Look outside, there are at least 200 soldiers. You said that Magneto encouraged the Mutants to die, but what's the difference between your actions and his? Aren't you inciting your brothers and sisters to die?! "
A look of determination flashed across her face. She said in a low voice,
"I don't care about Professor Charles or Magneto. Remember, your life is the most important. If you lose your life, you'll lose everything. Don't try to be a hero!"
She stood up and looked around the tunnel. She turned to Carlitos and the others and said, "I'm leaving. Who wants to leave with me?"
"You're a coward!"
Carlitos shouted from behind Pixie. "You've let down your ability and talent. You've let down your race!"
"I didn't choose this damned race!"
Pixie walked into the darkness without looking back. "If you want to be a hero, go ahead. I'm not going to die with you!"
But in less than two minutes, Pixie ran back. Carlitos thought that she had changed her mind, but Pixie rushed over, grabbed her hand, and rushed into the sewers in front of them.
"Go if you don't want to die! There are soldiers coming in from behind! We're doomed in this kind of terrain! "
As she ran, she took out her phone. She didn't want to do this, but in the end, she sent a message to Catherine asking for help. There were at least 100 fully armed soldiers in the sewers. As time passed, the number would only increase. It would be difficult for her to escape by herself.
"I must be crazy to come to a godforsaken place like New York alone!"
Pixie hid in the darkness and slapped herself hard. "God, if I'm safe this time, I'll never leave Gotham. I'll listen to Boss Saber. I'll go to Gotham and be a normal secretary. New York and freedom can go to hell. This is a living hell!"
Just as she spoke, a deafening gunshot echoed through the sewers. Even the air in the sewers started to heat up. It looked like the mutated humans had gotten into a fight with the soldiers, but Pixie had no intention of helping them. Just as she said, the few years she spent in Gotham had changed her behavior. Toward these people who were not her friends, Pixie did not feel any responsibility toward them.
"I can only give you my blessings, poor people!"
As she spoke, she groped her way forward in the darkness. Thanks to the dark vision that came from contracting with a demon, the complicated roads here were not a problem for her. She quietly avoided every path with life and walked further and further in the darkness. Finally, she saw a manhole cover.
Little Mischievous's eyes lit up. She quickly rushed over and lifted the manhole cover. She stuck her little head out and looked around. In front of her was an empty street. Very satisfied, she jumped out and patted the dirt off her body. She planned to leave this place as soon as possible.
But just as she reached the end of the street, a series of mechanical roars sounded behind her. Pixie turned around abruptly and saw a dark green mecha. It looked like a steel fortress descending from the sky. With the help of a rocket booster, it landed less than 15 meters behind her.
"Target locked!"
This seemingly mass-produced lump of metal was a member of another faction, but it was clear that they had formed some sort of alliance. The pilot quickly locked onto Pixie, and the machine cannons on the arms of the mech began to rotate rapidly. Pixie's scalp went numb, and under the control of its instincts, it quickly dodged to the side. The next moment, deafening gunshots and a storm of metal swept across the place where it was just a moment ago.
Speaking of which, this girl's fighting style was probably the simplest in The Devil Gang. Her strange ability meant that she could use attrition tactics to stall for time against any opponent. The absorption ability had a strange effect on her. But the problem was, against this metal lump, absorption was useless.
The mech had no life force to provide her with. Without destroying the mech's thick outer shell, she could not harm the pilot inside.
Therefore, in less than three seconds after the battle began, Pixie was in a terrible situation where it could only passively take a beating. This mech was originally designed by the genius designer, Tony Stark. It was a product that had both flexibility and firepower. After Aubediah Stane defected from Stark Industries, the design fell into the hands of the Ten Rings gang and was modified by them. In the face of ordinary soldiers and mutants, this mech was synonymous with invincibility.
Most importantly, after solving the energy problem, it could be mass-produced. This was the most terrifying part.
"Damn it! Damn it! "
Pixie leaped into the air and quickly completed her demonification. However, a shipowner was a type of demon that focused on agility. Facing enemies head-on was not something this slender demon was good at. Even after demonification, she could only run away pathetically.
The mech behind her chased relentlessly. After running for a few minutes, Pixie realized in despair that she had returned to the area of the villa. The surrounding area had been sealed. She had nowhere to run!
"She's there!"
"Shoot! Shoot! Kill her! "
The soldiers stationed at the original location quickly discovered Pixie's figure. In the next moment, bullets were fired from the front, cutting off Pixie's escape route. Behind them, the ferocious mecha was rapidly approaching. She suddenly realized that this foolish risk had ultimately sent her to her death.
"Get out of my way!!!"
The demonized girl gritted her teeth and rushed into the midst of the soldiers in front of her. Her six arms raised and slashed, causing one massacre after another. However, this could not change her terrible situation. She was not Saber or Logan. She did not have the ability to heal. If this continued, she would be killed by a bullet sooner or later.
"It's over! It's all over! "
As more and more blood splattered out of her body, Pixie's heart was filled with despair. After taking a direct hit from a small grenade, she was sent flying. When she crashed to the ground, she had already been forced out of her demonified state. She curled up on the ground, her body covered in blood. At this moment, only one bullet was needed to kill her.
She looked up and saw a black muzzle aimed at her head. Her face was filled with despair. She still wanted to fight back, but the surrounding soldiers and the mech were an obstacle she could not overcome. She could clearly see the soldier's finger on the trigger and the cold eyes under the mask.
She knew that if nothing unexpected happened, she would be dead for sure.
But at the same time, she also knew that in times like this, accidents would happen.
Boom!
A black shadow descended from the sky. Like a dark elf, she landed steadily on the ground not far from Pixie. This woman who descended from the sky immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers. They raised their guns and aimed at her.
However, the woman shrouded in black mist only raised her hand, and the guns in the soldiers' hands began to dissipate in a strange way. Pixie saw it clearly. The metal guns were like snowflakes under the sun. They began to "melt" from the top. Not even a trace of residue fell. They disappeared into the air directly.
True annihilation! What was even more terrifying was that after the guns melted, it was the soldiers' turn. Under the woman's inexplicable ability, the soldiers could not control their bodies at all. They floated in the air and were torn apart by an invisible force bit by bit.
There was not a single drop of blood, nor was there any disgusting flesh or remains. They were completely annihilated bit by bit, leaving nothing behind.
Pixie was scared out of her wits. She covered her mouth tightly so that she would not make a sound to attract the attention of the terrifying woman. She ignored Pixie and strode towards the villa. Wherever she went, whether it was the bricks, the iron door, or the creatures hiding behind the door, they were all torn apart by the invisible force.
It was meaningless. Everything seemed to be meaningless in front of her.
Just by walking into the room, half of the villa disappeared completely. Not even a trace of the remains could be seen.
Pixie stood up shakily. She didn't even have the time to rejoice that she had escaped death. Instinctively, she turned around and ran. But before she could run a few steps, her legs were bound by a flying iron chain and she was thrown to the ground in a sorry state. She saw the pair of shoes, the black robe, and the dark red helmet. Those familiar eyes and white hair. Even when he was smiling, there was a trace of awe in him.
"Ah, look who this is … the little girl who ran away last time."
The man chuckled softly. He reached out and patted Pixie's head like a kind grandfather. He did not hurt Pixie. He only said softly,
"Run. Quickly run. Little girl … this is not a place that you should be at."
Eric Lancher! Magneto! He's here too!
