Enlightenment runes in American manga

Chapter 193
When the topic touched on Curran, who hadn't shown up for more than a year, the atmosphere between Little Magneto and Raul suddenly became depressed.

After the two looked at each other with disinterest, they ended their chat and concentrated on flying towards the place where Mister Sinister's lair was suspected in the information.

Soon, on the outskirts of a small city beside the Nile, the two little Magneto landed together with the sentinel robot.

Although the existence of superpowers has been undisguisedly exposed to the world at this time, there is still a certain tacit understanding between "Ionia" and the human government.

That is, extraordinary people try to avoid appearing directly in front of ordinary people.

The battle of the extraordinary should also be as far away from human settlements as possible, so as not to involve a large number of innocent people and cause heavy casualties that neither side wants to see.

After Magneto and Raul waited for half an hour, an official representative from the local government came forward to greet them.

"Is it the superhuman law enforcement team from Ionia? I finally looked forward to the arrival of the two of you. I don't know if you want to arrest the superhuman criminal directly, or go to our reception dinner first."

In the queue of official representatives, a relatively young Egyptian officer in military uniform was the first to speak to the young Magneto, with a clear and palpable sense of anxiety in his tone.

But as soon as he finished speaking, an old man at the front of the queue who looked like he was in charge immediately glared at the young officer.

Then, the old man explained to Little Magneto and Raul respectfully:

"The two honored guests must not misunderstand, Wadiya absolutely did not mean any offense.

"He is eager to ask two guests from afar to lend a helping hand to us, mainly the people of our city, who have already fallen into panic because of the superhuman criminals."

"That's why Wadia was too anxious and lost his composure."

The old man's words made the two twin stars of the academy, who had been on many missions despite their young age, make eye contact without showing any traces.

In the past, when they took action to arrest those superpowers who were judged as threats, local officials often looked polite and distant. It was the first time that they were so eager as they are today.

And this obviously shows the harmfulness of the task target, Mister Sinister, who can make ordinary people in a city feel terrified. The crimes he committed are probably a lot.

Following the guidance of the official welcome personnel, the two of Magneto and a team of sentinel robots came to a base outside the city.

There, the two of them instantly had a deeper understanding of the madness of Mister Sinister.

From the moment they walked into that military base, the sentinel robot with the built-in esper sensing device immediately sent a message to Gemini.

On the special single-piece invisible eyepiece, Magneto and Raul saw dozens of red dots densely distributed around them besides the green dots representing the two of them.

In the identification pattern of the sentinel robot, that means a strange, wild superpower who has not been registered with the genetic sequence.

And the size and brightness of those red dots can also reflect the extraordinary fluctuations emitted by wild superpowers, and can also measure their threat from the side.

It's just that compared to the dim light of these red punctuation points, Gemini is a little surprised that the red warning color representing superpowers is mixed with a little bit of white representing ordinary human beings like never before.

Soon, they turned a corner again and came to a wide field. They knew what the sentinel robot recognition pattern they saw for the first time meant.

Appearing in front of them were dozens of "human beings" with strange shapes.

Yes, although certain characteristics indicate their human identity, the state of these strange creatures at this time is indeed difficult to be directly recognized as human beings.

A rickety birdman with a beak, sparse feathers growing from his armpits, and slender legs.

It was an ugly murloc with fine fish scales, two pairs of big mouths cut on its cheeks and throat, and a fish tail protruding from the waist.

There are also mud figurines whose whole body is limp, like a mass of rancid ooze, with a half-exposed brain growing only in the raised part of the center.

They were all kinds of things, and they caused the little Magneto and Raul to suffer a serious spiritual shock in an instant.

In the group of mutants, it's not that there are ugly guys, especially the Epsilon-level mutants with the worst bloodlines, who can definitely be called monsters in the conventional sense.

But compared to these "human beings" in front of them, the Upsilon-class mutants in Gemini's memories now seem so pleasing to the eye.

"They are not born mutants. Someone transplanted some parts of mutants to ordinary people to show this appearance."

Clutching his mouth and nose, and trying his best to suppress the nausea in his stomach, the little Magneto took the lead in expressing his judgment to Raul on the side.

Hearing what Max said, Raul nodded first, then shook his head, and added:
"Not only organ transplants, but also genetic modification. Don't forget that most of them have shown the genetic characteristics of superpowers in the detection of sentinel robots."

"Also, these...poor guys, although they look extremely uncoordinated, their vitality is very stable, and they can obviously be judged as a successful fusion."

Successful fusion, as soon as Raul uttered this phrase, the expression of Little Magneto suddenly changed.

There are not a few people who want to cross the boundary between mutants and ordinary people.

But there are very few successful cases, including Professor Trask in their college, who has a deep research on mutants, and has also encountered a bottleneck in this field.

As a result, now, the evil scientist hiding in an unnamed small city in North Africa has actually produced dozens of relatively successful experiments.

Little Magneto and Raul, who came to this conclusion, immediately raised the importance of the task of arresting Mr. Sinister by two levels in their hearts.

The old man representing the authorities saw that the captors of "Ionia" had finally finished their whispered communication, so he hurried forward and asked cautiously:
"Two extraordinary friends, this group of, um, victims, I don't know how you think we should deal with it?"

How to deal with it, the old man's question made Magneto and Raul stunned for a moment, and then aroused their anger.

The other party wanted to ask if it was possible to directly kill these transformed half-mutants.

In all fairness, the appearance of the dozens of test subjects in front of me is indeed a little scary, and it is absolutely impossible to reintroduce them into human society.

And judging from the few minutes of observation, they also generally have apathetic expressions on their faces, obviously they also lack the desire to survive.

So letting these poor experimental subjects die silently and silently seems to be a happy choice.

But Raul was unwilling, and the little Magneto, who was usually high and arrogant towards low-level mutants, was also unwilling.

In any case, since these test subjects are already half superpowers in the judgment of the sentinel robot, their life and death can only be decided by Curen.

And from these semi-mutants who are considered successful, Professor Trask may still be able to get some inspiration.

So Raul resolutely ordered that the old man and the high-level city leaders behind the old man take care of these dozens of test subjects, and after they successfully captured Mister Sinister, they brought them back to "Ionia" in Oceania.

When the old man heard this, he didn't show any hesitation on his face, on the contrary, he showed a relaxed expression of finally getting rid of the burden.

As long as these monsters that look like nightmares are taken far away from the city and don't continue to cause panic in the city, then everything is fine.

After dealing with the placement of the test object, the next topic is naturally about how to capture Mr. Sinister.

After the three of them whispered to each other, they quickly made a simple plan. After that, it was naturally a welcome dinner for the guests and the host.

The next day, in a dark alley in the city before dawn, a homeless man with mutilated legs was sleeping shivering in a pile of tattered cloth.

Suddenly, a black shadow slowly walked into this remote alleyway, and before the startled homeless man shouted, he covered his mouth and nose, making him fall into a deep coma.

And all of this was seen by Raul, who was suspended in mid-air and was extremely inconspicuous under the cover of night.

"It looks like another experimental product prepared by Essex, and judging by his appearance and extraordinary fluctuations on his body, it seems to be more perfect than those in the base yesterday."

Raul said lightly, and Magneto beside him picked up the words:
"That can only mean that this guy named Mister Evil is more sinful. After all, the subject of gene fusion needs more than just ordinary people..."

Following behind the black shadow at their feet, Magneto and Raul are getting closer to their mission goal.

The half-mutants sent by Mister Evil to search for experimental materials were obviously very familiar with the city's topography, and even locals who had lived in the city since childhood would be easily thrown off.

It's a pity that he didn't expect that the gaze following him came from the sky above his head.

So after two more rounds of detours, when the black figure came to the rich area in the city, he suddenly quickened his pace, and under the cover of night, he quickly rolled into a vast manor.

"This is a property owned by the chief of a nearby nomadic tribe in the city. Usually only servants live in it."

"According to the detection results now, apart from the test item that just entered, there are indeed no other extraordinary fluctuations in it."

"Hehe, it really is as shown in the information, our mission target is very good at hiding!"

Little Magneto confirmed the situation of the manor below through the built-in search engine and detection device of the sentinel robot.

Then, a mocking sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

No matter how cunning that evil scientist named Mister Sinister is, they have already caught his tail by this time.

A smile also appeared on the face of Raul on the side, and then he ordered a sentinel robot behind him to increase the power of the detection device.

Just now, the half-mutant who was deliberately released by them, the extraordinary wave in the detection device moved rapidly underground, and disappeared completely from the detection device after reaching a certain depth.

Obviously, hiding deep enough underground is how Mister Sinister can hide from the capture team sent by "Ionia" in the early stage.

To be honest, it was the first time that Magneto and Raul knew that there was a limit to the Sentinel robot's ability to detect the Transcendents underground.

Based on their experience, detection instruments under normal conditions are sufficient to feed back the situation at a depth of nearly 800 meters underground.

And there, it is very difficult for most extraordinary people to reach there by relying on their own abilities.

But now, they met a master of hole punching.

With a sense of novelty, the sentinel robot behind Raul began to overload its detection module.

Starting from the extremely deep underground of 800 meters, the feedback range of extraordinary fluctuations has expanded again.

900 meters, 1000 meters, 1050 meters, 1100 meters, 1150 meters, 1200 meters...

When the numbers reached here, the cat-and-mouse smiles on the faces of Little Magneto and Raul gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.

If the underground cave over 1200 meters is only used to avoid possible enemies, isn't Mister Sinister a bit too cautious?
More likely, the other party dug all the way to such a deep place, perhaps originally to find something underground.

Thinking of this, the two of Raul looked at each other, and both saw the heat in each other's eyes.

Doctor Evil quickly rose from an ordinary person to a leader of extraordinary people, and he also has amazing accomplishments in the fusion research of mutant genes.

All of this, they may be able to find the reason from the upcoming underground journey.

1300 meters, 1350 meters, 1400 meters, 1450 meters, 1500 meters, the detection range is still expanding, but the fluctuations representing the transcendent still have not appeared.

This made Little Magneto and Raul almost no longer want to wait for the detection results, hoping to rush directly into the unknown crypt.

However, just before they could restrain their impulse, the sentinel robot, whose operating power was close to its limit, finally sent a large red light spot in front of the transparent lenses of the two of them.

And looking at the different shades in the pupils, but the number alone is enough to make them gasp at the extraordinary fluctuations that are so cold.

Little Magneto and Raul felt very grateful for their restraint more than ten seconds ago.

It was just fortunate that after that, they had to face another problem.

That is, they are extremely confident in their own strength, and they are assisted by a team of twelve sentinel robots. From a rational point of view, they find that it is not that easy to take down Mister Sinister, and it can even be said to be extremely difficult.

The other party spent countless efforts to reach the ground below 1500 meters. There, it can be said that it is the home field of Mister Sinister, and there may be countless unknown traps and arrangements.

The key is that there will be a big battle underground, even if the two of them end up defeating Mister Sinister.

But if the other party directly destroys the underground support structure with the idea of ​​dying together, then no matter how good the genetics and strength of the mutants are, the little Magneto and Raul may not be able to see the sun again.

So today's raid can only stop here and be changed into a preliminary investigation.

If you want to capture Mr. Sinister without damage, you still need to think long-term!

Little Magneto and Raul looked at each other tacitly, and then led the sentinel robot back to their temporary station in the dark.
