[Patch: Blackbat was the one who defeated Magneto in the previous episode. This is hereby corrected.]
Professor Charles, who had been dominated by his second personality, suddenly gave off a terrifying feeling of indifference. Everyone felt as if they were facing a cold machine! Jean could not believe what she saw. The kind old man who seemed to be able to tolerate everything had disappeared in an instant.
Only Magneto and Prince Dracula smiled. In their opinion, only this kind of Professor Charles was qualified to be mentioned in the same breath as them.
Sheyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Yes, for him, Professor Charles could be said to be the most powerful person in their camp, but because of his personality, he could become the weakest link. To be honest, this kind of uncertain factor was the most worrying thing for Sheyan. Now that Professor Charles had taken the initiative to make up for this weakness, it was undoubtedly the luckiest thing.
With just a few words from Professor Charles, the flaws in the defence that appeared due to his benevolence were patched up one by one. Of course, the price of doing so was also very obvious. At least 20 people had lost their lives because of this.
Of the twenty people who died, only two or three were likely to be spies, while the rest were destined to die in vain. This was the reason why the benevolent Professor Charles had been hesitant all this time, but now, he had raised his butcher's knife without hesitation.
He would rather kill a thousand innocent people than let a single one go!
After everything was discussed, everyone naturally returned to their residence to rest. Suddenly, Sanzi ran over to Sheyan and said happily, "Brother Charles, the absorption process has been completed.
"Brother Yan, the absorption is complete. Kulutego should be able to evolve into a Tier 5 Legendary Creature."
Sheyan was very excited when he heard this. He went to the roof of the nearby building with Sanzi.
They could see that Grimm had been released from all restraints. He was now standing on the roof, facing off against the two-headed Cyclops Kulutego.
Strictly speaking, Kulutego had only been in this world for less than a month, but in his battle form, he had already become a three-meter-tall, hunchbacked, behemoth with arms that extended past his knees. If he did not use his power, the ground would tremble when he walked on it, as if a giant truck was running over it!
At this time, Kulutego was engaged in close combat with Grimm. His method of attack was very simple and straightforward. He pressed his left hand on the roof of the building, and activated his ability to tear the roof apart. A thick rock club formed in his hand, and he immediately smashed it towards Grimm's head while shouting excitedly.
Grimm's body seemed to be injured. He could not dodge even if he wanted to. He could only grit his teeth and block Kulutego's rock club. The two sides were in a stalemate.
Grimm had to use his ability to control mud and stone to neutralize the rock club in order to survive. Kulutego, on the other hand, was taking advantage of this opportunity to figure out how his opponent's power worked and hone his own through the confrontation. He was using Grimm as a whetstone.
Even though Grimm was fully aware of the other party's intentions, his life was his own. Only a fool would be able to stand idly by as the several hundred kilograms of rock club smashed into his brain. Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and endure it!
Kulutego lacked the guidance of his parents when he was growing up, so he was like a child who had been given millions of dollars but did not know how to spend them. Now that he was able to communicate with Grimm in this kind of direct confrontation, he grew up very quickly and benefited a lot.
When Party Ace and the others came to watch, they saw many cracks on the surface of the rock club in Kulutego's hand. It looked like it was about to be neutralized by Grimm again.
However, Kulutego suddenly let out a few excited roars, and the cracks on the rock club in his hand quickly healed. What was even more astonishing was that even the surface of Grimm's hand that was holding the rock club was rapidly covered with rocks! Grimm screamed in pain.
This fully showed that Kulutego had surpassed Grimm in terms of using his power. As more and more rocks formed on the surface of Grimm's body, Grimm's expression became more and more pained. Green light shot out of Kulutego's single eyes and illuminated Grimm's body.
In the end, Grimm slowly fell to the ground with his mouth wide open. His power had been completely absorbed by Kulutego, and he had become an ordinary person.
However, this would not endanger his life, because the source of his Arcana was the mutation of the human body after being exposed to cosmic rays. Therefore, what Kulutego did was equivalent to sucking away all the Arcana in his body.
Given enough time, Grimm might still be able to regenerate with his power, but Kulutego's act of killing the goose that laid the golden eggs had severely damaged his vitality. It would take him at least a few months to a year to recover, so he would not pose a substantial threat to Sheyan and the others.
Although Grimm was no longer of any use to them and they had no intention of killing him, they would not let him go just like that. After taking a few minutes of photos of him, he made a CD and sent it to the Fantastic Four, hoping that he could exchange him for some rare elements. At the very least, he wanted the Fantastic Four to be cautious and not go all out against him.
At this time, Kulutego had returned to his non-combat form. The Realm had disguised him as a chubby black teenager. He was lying on the floor with his mouth wide open and drooling. (There was a set of pictures on Weibo, which were very vivid) Sanzi had already listed out the improvements he had made.
His HP has increased by 20%.
His critical strike rate has increased by 10%.
[New ability: Double Throw – Throw two boulders at once. The boulders have a 50% chance of knocking back or stunning the target, as well as causing area-of-effect damage. The area-of-effect damage is equivalent to 50% of the direct damage.]
[New ability: Area Rock Spikes – Summon a large number of rock spikes in the area to inflict heavy damage to all enemies and reduce their movement speed by 80%.]
[New ability: Flame Boost – At the cost of increasing the consumption of his power, he can add flames to the boulders and magma to the Area Rock Spikes.]
***
The rapid growth of Kulutego's strength was undoubtedly good news. Less than ten minutes after Sheyan returned to his bedroom and lay down to rest, Old Charlie pushed the door open and entered again.
He looked at Sheyan and said, "Master, I have something to tell you."
Sheyan sat up from the bed and nodded.
"It's about Freddy, right?"
Old Charlie replied.
"That's right. Freddy's power is too weak now. He can deal with ordinary people, but if he encounters a contestant or a legendary figure, it's almost completely ineffective. Their mental power is too strong compared to Freddy's, and they can easily shatter Freddy's illusion in their dreams."
Sheyan closed his eyes and thought for a while.
"So, what do you think about this?"
Old Charlie replied.
"Freddy's power stems from people's psychological fear of him. Our previous discussion about broadcasting Freddy's video on the TV station is not advisable, because the government can easily cut off the relevant signal and interrupt the live broadcast …. Besides, people will easily think of it as a movie or some new entertainment program. It's already good enough that one in a hundred people can feel fear for a long time."
Old Charlie was Sheyan's servant. If Sheyan died, Old Charlie's servant would die as well, so Sheyan trusted Old Charlie quite a bit.
"Just tell me what you've thought of."
Old Charlie said seriously.
"If we can convince Professor X to help, then this matter will become a piece of cake. Professor X will implant Freddy's strength into the minds of the audience through telepathy, then …. Things will become very simple. I've calculated that the effect will be amazing if we do this, and Freddy will be our greatest surprise weapon!" Sheyan shook his head and said, "If we can convince Professor X to help us, then this matter will be as easy as pie.
Sheyan furrowed his brows.
"Can you be more specific?"
Old Charlie replied.
"We'll go to a TV station or a radio station. Professor X will use his brainwaves to control the person in charge. He'll tell Freddy's story on the radio station. It's best if Professor X does this with a brainwave amplifier. That way, he'll be able to influence everyone."
Sheyan thought carefully for a while.
"Judging from Professor X's personality, it'll be very difficult to persuade him to help."
Old Charlie was silent. He seemed to agree with Sheyan's statement. Don't think that Professor X will be easy to persuade just because he's in his second personality. He's like a machine. If you only care about the gains and losses, you'll need a good reason to persuade him to help. Especially now that Professor X is in charge of the defense plan, he can't afford to be distracted easily. "
But then Sheyan continued.
"To be honest, it'll be a pity if Freddy just gives up like this. If we can't persuade Professor X, we can always settle for the next best thing."
Old Charlie furrowed his brows.
"Settle for the next best thing? Are you talking about … Jean?"
Sheyan nodded.
"It's not just Jean. There's another person in the Cullen family who has a similar ability. Jasper Whitelock? Halle! That guy loves Alice Cullen dearly. Of course, if I had to choose between the two, Jean would definitely be my first choice. She has a second personality, the Dark Phoenix, in her body. She's a very powerful level-5 mutant. In terms of ability, there's no problem at all. " If you like this work, you're welcome to vote for it at qidian.com. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
