Marvel: Son of Tomorrow

Chapter 79 The battle is over

Clark grabbed the iron cage that trapped the students and tried to tear it open, but when he exerted all his strength, he suddenly found that these ordinary metals did not move at all.

My own strength can't even shake this ordinary metal!

In the back, Charles saw that Clark couldn't even open the cage, and suddenly thought of something. He looked up, only to find that while Magneto was manipulating metal to resist the attacks of Cyclops and Storm, his eyes were still fixed on Clark.

"It's the magnetic field, Clark. Magneto has used the magnetic field to strengthen the cage. Although you are powerful, it is not enough to shake the magnetic field controlled by Magneto."

Charles's appeal rang in Clark's mind, and made Clark understand why he couldn't even pull apart ordinary steel bars.

"In that case, all we have to do is make it so that Magneto can't control these metals, right?"

In just a moment, Clark thought of a way to deal with it.

Magneto can certainly manipulate the magnetic field to forcibly strengthen these metals, making them strong enough that he cannot destroy them.

However, the influence of the magnetic field cannot affect the melting point of the metal.

Clark took a step back, his eyes glowing red. He wanted to melt the cage directly with his thermal vision. Once it was melted, the liquid metal would naturally not be something that Magneto could control through magnetic fields.

"Everyone, be careful!"

After the first reminder, a dazzling red light shot out from Clark's eyes. Under his control, the thermal vision accurately shone on the steel bars without harming the students inside. However, such subtle control also prevented Wendy from melting instantly.

This also gives the enemy time to react.

Magneto realized Clark's thoughts, and knew that the trump card he communicated with Charles and others was these students, and he must not let Clark rescue them.

So he immediately wanted to control other metals and attack Clark.

But how could Cyclops and Storm not know what he was thinking? They launched attacks one after another, drawing Magneto's attention back and preventing him from disturbing Clark's actions.

Game theory shows how strong Magneto's ability to control magnetic fields is. He has to devote his attention to resisting Cyclops' laser and Storm's lightning. Controlling the magnetic field cannot make him invulnerable.

"Damn little devil, here to disturb our fun again!"

On the other side, Sabretooth, who was fighting with Logan again, became furious when he saw Clark's behavior. It was not because Clark was about to rescue those students, but because he was almost killed by Clark, so he felt annoyed when he saw Clark coughing.

So, in anger, Sabretooth, staring at Logan's claws that pierced his heart, sent the opponent flying first, with his limbs touching the ground. Just like his title, he pounced on Clark who was using thermal vision to melt the cage like a real sabertooth tiger.

"Clark be careful!"

After being blown away and falling to the ground, Logan was no longer able to stop the saber-toothed tiger. He could only loudly remind Clark that the saber-toothed tiger was still very threatening in his opinion.

But realistically, does Clark still worry about saber-toothed tigers today?

The answer is no. Although Clark, who has regained his biological perspective, is not truly invulnerable, he will not be defeated by the brute force of a superhuman like the saber-toothed tiger, who is not known for his strength.

But even so, if he was disturbed at this time, everything would change greatly. The attacks of Cyclops and Storm would indeed pose a threat to Magneto, but it would be impossible for the two of them to defeat Magneto alone. Once they were defeated, he would not be able to rescue his students and Jean. It was uncertain what requests Magneto would make later.

Clark did not take any action, and it seemed that he was going to withstand the attack of the saber-toothed tiger head-on. But in fact, it was because of Clark's trust in the people around him, or in other words, his trust in Charles, the only one who did not take action.

When the saber-toothed tiger's claws were about to fall on Clark, the opponent's actions suddenly stopped. At the same time, the toad that was entangled with the beast also stopped moving. The two of them were controlled by Charles's psychic power at this time.

The main reason why Charles did not control them immediately at the beginning was that Magneto had been staring at Charles. As long as Charles used his ability, Magneto would attack Charles without hesitation because of his helmet that was immune to mind control.

Now, although Cyclops and Storm can't hold on for too long, it shouldn't take too long.

As Sabretooth and Toad were controlled, Beast and Logan immediately came to help.

After the metal cage was heated, Magneto's magnetic effect was greatly reduced. With the help of Beast and Logan, the cage was quickly opened and all the students escaped.

But just when they were about to rescue Jean who was wrapped in iron sheet, Jean suddenly took off into the air and slowly flew to Magneto's side.

At this time, when they looked over again, they found that Cyclops and Storm had been subdued by Magneto without them knowing when.

The glasses on Cyclops' face used to suppress lasers have disappeared, and he and Storm are tied face to face with a steel bar.

In this situation, as long as Cyclops opens his eyes, the released laser will shoot Storm's head. And as long as Storm dares to control the lightning, she will electrocute Cyclops first if he comes into contact with his body.

Plus the piano flying into the air.

Although everyone rescued all the students and controlled Sabretooth and Toad, they lost Cyclops, Storm, and Jean.

"Charles, I am really surprised by your decisiveness this time."

Magneto spoke slowly. This time, Charles did not preach to her at the beginning, but directly asked the X-Men to take action, which really surprised her.

But that's all.

Even if he rescued those students, as long as these three were still in his hands, he could do nothing but make a good deal with them.

"Magneto, let them go. Your actions are really too radical."

The person who spoke was not Charles himself, but Sabretooth who was now controlled by Charles. Charles used Sabretooth's mouth to start communicating with Magneto.

"At this point, is there any point in arguing with me about right and wrong? What's going on now is a pure transaction. You want the lives of three people? It's easy. Use Riven, Sabretooth, and Toad to exchange them. Otherwise, the three of them will surely die."

As he spoke, the metal binding the three people slowly tightened, and the bones of the three people made crisp sounds. It was obvious that their joints had been dislocated. If it continued to tighten, the bones of the three people would most likely be crushed.

"Eric!!"

Sabretooth suddenly shook his head, as if he had regained consciousness, and Charles used his body to shout out Magneto's name, and then closed his eyes quietly.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, his eyes full of helplessness. Magneto knew him too well. Even if he caught the three Sabretooths, he could not threaten them with their lives directly like Magneto did.

So from the moment Cyclops and the other two were captured, the ending was actually fixed.

"I promise you, release Cyclops and the others as soon as possible..."
