Marvel's Director of Time and Space Administration

"Sir, a high-energy reaction has been detected."

Fox's voice rang in her ears, interrupting Jessica who had just returned to the office and was about to close her eyes and digest what happened today.

"What's going on? Fox, please report."

"Okay, Your Excellency Jessica, a powerful burst of genetic energy has been detected in Cairo, and it is still growing."

"Cairo? I remember there weren't any advanced mutants there, right?"

"Yes, sir."

"Could it be that mutants have awakened? But it's impossible to make such a big noise!"

After thinking for a few seconds, Jessica suddenly picked up the cloak, put it on her shoulders, and ran out of the office.

"Fosse, call Raven for me, it's time to go."

"Forget it, I'll call him myself."

At this time, Cairo was already in chaos.

In an underground exchange somewhere, just after Tianqi regained Psylocke as one of the Four Horsemen, he opened a space wormhole and stepped into it.

I saw the space change, and a group of people had arrived at the door of Eric's house.

"Nina, daddy has a day off tomorrow, where do you want to go?"

Eric, who was interacting with his daughter, had a smile on his face.

Suddenly, as if he felt someone coming, Eric suddenly raised his head and looked at the door.

Through induction, Eric determined that there were three people at the door.

Later, after he told his wife to take their daughter to hide, he went to the door alone and opened the door and went out.

"What do you want to do?"

Although he was surprised to see four people when he opened the door, he was relieved after all. After all, it was normal for humans to develop instruments that shield mutants' senses.

"I want you to be loyal to me!"

Tianqi's tone was as high as ever, as if he was the only god in the world.

"You think too much. I will not join you, let alone be loyal to you."

"Haha, you first feel the taste of power before making a decision!"

Apocalypse's expression is still full of wisdom. He has seen many people like Magneto thousands of years ago. He is a typical person who is waiting for a price. He will not give in until he tastes the sweetness. Only by letting them know that there are great benefits to following you. If you take it, they will be loyal to you wholeheartedly.

As soon as Apocalypse finished speaking, Eric seemed so uncomfortable that he fell to his knees and supported the ground with his hands, as if he had been infused with some energy.

"Believe me, your potential is unknown!"

Later, Eric felt that he was forcibly injected into his body by some kind of genetic energy.

This kind of genetic energy emerged from all over his body in an endless stream, making him always feel that sooner or later he would be burst by this energy.

And when he was about to lose control of himself, he looked at the broken metal on the ground, then looked at the broken ground around him, and thought of the wives and daughters hiding in the house behind him, and he suddenly felt a force to control the people who were about to riot. ability.

Eric endured the rioting X-gene power and shouted at Apocalypse and his group.

"Get out!!! Get out of my sight!!!"

Immediately, the uncontrollable ability went wild in an instant, and countless metal wires were quickly stabbed at Tianqi and the others.

Tianqi's face remained unchanged, and when the metal torrent reached two meters in front of Tianqi, it seemed as if there was an invisible air shield in front of him, covering Tianqi's group.

The torrent of metal separated like a rushing river meeting a mainstay, and crashed behind them.

Just hearing an endless crash, the large forest behind Apocalypse and the other three knights had been destroyed by the metal torrent, leaving only a pitted open space.

"You are really ignorant, let me teach you a lesson!"

Angel was furious and eager to show off in front of his new boss Tianqi, so he took the lead in attacking Eric.

I saw him flying into the sky, flapping his wings vigorously.

Densely packed metal wings flew towards Eric, each one with the force to penetrate a certain thickness of steel plate.

But such a large-scale attack stopped in front of Eric.

Storm on the side saw that the angel was unable to hit the target, so she immediately summoned thunder and lightning.

A huge bolt of lightning struck Eric from the sky.

He hurriedly controlled the steel wings floating in front of him to form circles, wrapping himself in the torrent of steel.

On the way to Eric, the lightning was attracted by the torrent of steel and directed underground.

And Eric stood there, not hurt at all.

"It's so boring, let's end it!"

Apocalypse sighed with emotion, and then the dust suddenly rose up all over the sky.

A huge figure formed in the sky, and the right hand of the giant figure was slapped heavily towards Eric.

Eric hurriedly controlled the surrounding steel frames to block the falling giant palm.

However, these waves of steel defense lines seemed to be made of paper, unable to withstand a blow from the giant palm.

Just when Eric was desperate, a burst of blue light flashed, and the giant palm was instantly scattered.

Eric turned around and saw that Raven was putting down the energy rifle he was aiming at and waved his hand to Eric to express his help.

Jessica on the other side was holding an object that looked very much like a personal rocket launcher and pointing at Apocalypse.

Then a beam of light eight meters thick was seen shooting out of the rocket launcher.

As if Jessica was affected by the impact of the rocket launcher, she leaned back and then recovered.

After Tianqi saw that the other party released such a strong energy beam to attack him, he first used a defensive wall made of sand and dust, but it could not block the attack and was immediately penetrated.

Then, he activated his air shield ability and used all his strength to finally offset this terrifying attack.

Then he didn't stay for a while, opened the wormhole and ran away.

"Eric, how can you thank us this time?"

Raven took the opportunity to run forward and repay the favor.

"I really should thank you this time, not only for saving me, but also for saving the lives of my wife and daughter."

"So, do you agree to join us?"

"It's a very important matter. Can you let me go back and think about it?"

"Hey, Eric! You"

"Okay, Raven, if he wants to think about it, let him go. Anyway, our concept has been proven to be feasible, and he will join sooner or later."

After returning home, Eric sat on the sofa, poured a glass of whiskey, and drank it in one gulp.

Then he took a deep breath, as if he had let out the tense atmosphere just now.

At this time, Jenny also walked out of the basement with Nina.

Nina saw Eric sitting on the sofa drinking wine and hurried over.

With one swoop, he threw himself into Eric's arms and started crying.

"Dad, don't leave us! Don't hate Nina!"

"Be good, Nina, why does daddy hate you? It's not too late to like you, you are my good daughter."

As he spoke, Eric showed a knowing smile. After so many years of wandering on the edge of life and death, only these days could Ariel feel some warmth of family.

The gentle wife, well-behaved and smart daughter gradually melted Eric's cold heart.
