Chapter 39 Arrangement of Fate (1)

When an animal is in danger, its hair will explode, and the hair will stand on end. This is an instinctive expression of life when it is facing a crisis.

The same happens when people are in danger.

But for Shen Yi, this phenomenon has never happened since he entered the bloody city.

until now.

It was an instinctive, bestial instinct that had absolutely nothing to do with his thoughts.

He felt that every pore in his body was expanding, and his hair stood on end, as if death was imminent.

On the other side of the pier, there were five people standing.

The leading one was an old man in sixties with a thin face, deep eyes and a strange helmet.

"Magneto."

These words popped out softly from Shen Yi's mouth.

Even without using the spirit detection technique, Shen Yi already knew who the old man in front of him was.

Magneto, one of the most powerful mutants in the X-Men world, suddenly appeared at this time.

Shen Yi knows exactly how strong Magneto is.

Where there is metal, it is equivalent to this guy's domain.

Any metal can be his shield, his sword, his omnipotent weapon.

Shen Yi may not be afraid of such an enemy, but he definitely does not want to provoke them easily.

Unlike Count Dracula, killing Count Dracula is a fixed task, and there is an obvious reward after killing. Although the risk is huge, the reward is also great. Kill Magneto, but don't expect much in return.

This time it is a competition task, and the competition ranking is the greatest value expression.

Shen Yi doesn't mind taking risks, but he definitely minds taking worthless risks.

Or risk of insufficient value.

So let alone Magneto, he is not even willing to provoke characters like Storm Girl and Wolverine.

The reason is that the pay is not directly proportional to the return.

However, he didn't look for trouble, but trouble found him on its own initiative.

Magneto is coming, without warning.

Hearing Shen Yi's whisper, Magneto also showed a surprised expression on his face.

"You ever met me?"

"You're a celebrity."

"Then I can skip the procedure of introducing myself."

Magneto waved his hand lightly, and the roof of a car flew to his feet, carrying him to Shen Yi's side.

It seems that as long as he wants, he can turn this big iron sheet into his flying carpet at any time.

Shen Yi casually scanned the surrounding area. At some point, the surrounding area was filled with mutants, and the entire pier had been controlled by them. But in this seemingly random action, Shen Yi has quietly used spiritual detection on the other party.

"Magneto King Eric, a level 5 mutant. Ability: Metal Control. Evaluation: Possesses extremely brilliant metal control ability."

Unsurprisingly, the information Shen Yi could obtain on Magneto was pitifully small, and he didn't even know the vitality of the other party. Unexpectedly, the spiritual investigation gave an evaluation that had never been done before.

Could this be the special effect brought about by the talent bonus? Shen Yi didn't know, but he knew that only from the detailed analysis of the data, the strength of the old man in front of him could be imagined.

He is definitely not the kind of old man in the movie who has powerful metal control ability but dies at the touch of a touch.

At this moment, slowly walking down from the iron carpet, Magneto looked at the young man in front of him with great interest.

Although the old man was old, his gestures were quite majestic, and his movements were soothing and natural, which was an expression of extreme confidence. His eyes were resolute and ruthless, which showed that he was quite conceited.

He looked at Shen Yi, and said in his characteristic deep voice after a while: "It's so interesting, you are not a mutant, but you have more powerful power than mutants. I used to think that mutants are the only evolutionary direction of human beings, but now You showed me a new branch."

In the eyes of Magneto King Eric, mutants are the ultimate expression of future human evolution.

In his view, the future world must be dominated by mutants.

Human beings cannot accept the rise of mutants,

Mutants crave treatment that matches their abilities. The old forces want to keep their original status, and the new forces try to get more, at least not losing to the old forces. This kind of inevitable conflict caused by different positions is like the authors hating piracy, but the readers are justified. As a matter of course, it is entirely due to the difference in understanding caused by different buttocks.

The change in strength caused by racial differentiation is the root of the conflict between humans and mutants. From this point of view, this conflict is inevitable and unavoidable.

In contrast, the peaceful coexistence of humans and mutants that Professor X has been committed to is actually just a wishful thinking.

The reason why humans launched the war against the mutants is also because they realized that with the growing population of mutants, their influence is also growing, and they really threaten the existence of the human government.

In time, mutants will truly become the masters of this world, and humans may only become slaves.

New racism will be born as a result, and like capitalist socialism, it will become a new banner for future social development.

It sounds mysterious, but with the soil for survival, any exotic seeds may blossom and bear fruit.

This is also understandable when you think about what happened to black people.

Therefore, human beings resolutely launched a war against mutants when they were still strong. They may be on the wrong side at present, but they may be the savior of human beings in the future.

From the perspective of history and human nature, this is entirely possible.

The oppression caused by the overflow of ability is more terrible than the oppression of power, at least the oppression of power is only the evil deed of a few people, but the overflow of ability means the death of ordinary people.

Of course, from the perspective of Magneto, the problem is much simpler: mutants are the ultimate expression of human evolution, and stupid humans are trying to prevent this evolution and try to oppress mutants. This kind of injustice will naturally be condemned and fought against.

But the appearance of adventurers made this originally simple confrontation suddenly complicated.

A group of strange, mutant-like people with super powers have launched an almost crazy attack on mutants... They are neither like mutants nor mutants. Their abilities are not as single and pure as the mutants, and they are more diverse, but their performance is closer to the powerhouses of human beings than mutants. They attack mutants, but they have nothing to do with the human government. They come and go freely, without restraint, and behave in different ways... They snipe and kill mutants, and even kill each other.

That's exactly why Magneto is here.

At this moment, he looked at Shen Yi, and said word by word: "Who are you?"

He didn't ask why he wanted to kill the mutant, he didn't accuse the other party passionately, to show the innocence of the mutant, he just simply asked who you are, but it was this sentence that made Shen Yi's heart tremble.

This old man was far more sober than he had seen in the movies.

What he was thinking about was no longer ordinary grievances and hatred, but issues related to the future development direction of mutants.

Unfortunately he was wrong.

Shen Yi said lightly: "We don't have any necessary connection with you, let alone the new direction of human development and evolution you think. In fact, we people are just on a death train leading to hell, and here, it's just A stop we need to go through."

The "here" Shen Yi refers to refers to the entire X-Men world, but Magneto understands it as New York.

He frowned slightly: "Can I understand that you are a group of mercenaries? Entrusted by others? So you are hunting mutants everywhere?"

The work of mercenaries is like stepping on the death train sightseeing in hell.

At each stop, tourists get on and off the bus.

Some of these people got out of the car and never got back on.

There is no end to the train, and it keeps shuttling through hell, and getting on and off the train will always appear—no matter how long you stay on the train, hell is your eternal destination.

Magneto is a wise old man, so he immediately heard Shen Yi's helplessness.

They didn't kill mutants out of hatred or any other reason, which explained why Shen Yi and the others let Jerry go, and even came to save him now.

Hearing Magneto's question, Shen Yi smiled, and nodded: "It can be understood in this way."

"So who hired you?"

"destiny."

"destiny?"

"Yes, fate. You and I are enemies. This is the decision of fate and cannot be defied unless fate changes its mind."

"This is simply too ridiculous, fate is not will, I'm asking who ordered you to do this!" Magneto's face showed a thin anger.

Shen Yi shrugged: "Truth is often harder to believe than lies, but it is the truth. Maybe you don't believe it, but I know that including you appearing here, including the wars you have engaged in, and even including your ideals, your Ability is also governed by fate in the dark. You, me, and everyone here are governed by fate. Fate exists, and it has will, just like you have the ability to control metal , you are invincible. Do you think this is really what you were born with? No, Mr. Eric, it was given to you by fate. And we are also the creation of fate. The difference is... We are judged by fate to be yours. enemy."

"That's why we are here." Looking at Magneto, Shen Yi said coldly: "You want an answer, this is the answer."

"It's a pity that it's not what I want, maybe I should change the way of asking." Magneto shook his head, his fingers hooked slightly, and a car whizzed over Shen Yi's head. The whole car actually began to deform and twist in the air, as if there was a strong squeeze from the outside, twisting the car into a twist, forming a huge iron rod in the air, and its front end was even twisted into a gun point shape……

Shen Yi looked at the super-deformed iron gun in the air, and sighed lightly.

Magneto's metal control ability is so strong that it is almost enough to artificially create Transformers.

Facing such a terrifying opponent, Shen Yi showed no signs of fear, and just said indifferently: "The reason why I answer your question, Mr. Eric, is not because I am afraid of you, but because I did not deceive you on this issue. If you think that putting my penis on the barbecue grill will change my answer, then I regret to tell you that you are wrong. Whether it is now or later, no matter how the ending changes, the answer will always be It won't change, the only thing that changes...is you and me."

As he said that, a stern light flashed across Shen Yi's eyes, which made Magneto's heart tremble.

The next moment, he saw a bundle of explosives suddenly appearing in Shen Yi's hand.

Trigger Dynamite, a common reward for killing mutants.

Magneto's face changed drastically, and Shen Yi said coldly: "You'd better not move, or we will all die together."
