Shadow of the Beautiful World

It seems that Liana did not tell the Riley family about Logan's escape.

In the town hall of Utopia Island, the professor sitting in a wheelchair looked at the confrontation in the distance. He said to the superhero cloak who was wearing a long flower-striped cloak and covered most of his face with a hood:

Colossus' younger sister was worried that the mutants would be dragged into the conspiracy. She didn't tell these two little girls the 'truth' she saw. This is our chance.

The cloak that was also replaced shook his head.

He said to the professor in a hazy voice:

I still think this incident is a bit too abrupt, and maybe there are some secrets that we haven't been able to see through.

Indeed, the vigilance must not be lost at any time.

The professor nodded, and he said to the cloak:

You go and report this matter to the empress first, and I will find a way to find out the details, but no matter what, the matter has progressed to this point, leaving us with very few choices.

Suggest to the queen to speed up the progress.

The professor stroked the armrest of the wheelchair, and said in a deep voice:

It is necessary to trigger the war between the Cree and the Earth people before the ravens really intervene, and we must create greater chaos to cover up our current predicament.

OK.

The cloak nodded, and in the distortion of light and shadow, his figure spun and disappeared into the professor's office.

After his companion disappeared, the fake professor stretched out his hands to straighten his collar, and he unfolded his spiritual power. The next moment, his gentle voice appeared in the hearts of everyone who was in the confrontation.

I don't know what happened, Miss Raven, but I would like to invite you to come to my place if possible.

Don't scare the innocent anymore, everyone, let's resolve this conflict in a more decent way. I assure you both, if Laura's death is really related to Logan, then the X-Men will do their best to solve the conflict. I'll help you catch him.

This is my guarantee! I think my old man's guarantee should be somewhat credible, right?

Lorna wears a weird battle helmet, which originated from Steppenwolf and was transformed by Icarus. Like Magneto's helmet, it can isolate the manipulation of spiritual power, but the voice of the soul can still be conveyed.

She heard what the professor said, she turned her head to look at Rui Wen, who hesitated for a moment, glanced at Magneto across the way, and then nodded to Lorna.

Ruiwen waved her finger, and the hell omnics turned and walked towards the landing area.

She shook Lorna's hand and said to Magneto:

The professor's character is trustworthy, we are willing to talk about it, but you'd better not play tricks!

Magneto shook his head, but he didn't say anything more.

A few minutes later, Ruiwen and Lorna walked into Professor X's office. The professor sat in a wheelchair and stopped by the window. The warm sunlight shone on him, casting an elongated shadow on the ground.

He had the same smile on his face as always, but his eyes were somewhat solemn.

Laura was a very talented mutant, and her death is a terrible loss for us, but I don't mean to excuse Logan, both of you.

The professor looked at Riven and Lorna in front of him, and said:

Based on what I know about Logan, I really don't think he will have anything to do with Laura's death. As far as I know, even Lord Merlin trusts him very much...

Yes, my brother trusts him very much.

Ruiwen held her sister's hand, she said coldly:

My brother also entrusted Laura to him to train Laura's abilities. In the past, the two of them were in Europe to track down the ancestor wolf, but everything happened so suddenly!

Laura's body was brought home in the wee hours of the morning, covered in wounds...

boom

Something was photographed on the professor's desk by Lorna who didn't say a word. Magneto, who was standing next to him, picked up the photo. He saw the cruel scars on Laura's back.

The fatal wound was a knife mark that pierced the heart from behind. The person who did it must be a martial arts master. The scar was less than three fingers wide. It should have been a sneak attack from behind during the chaos and killed him with a single blow.

This made Magneto frown.

Is it Muramasa?

He looked at Lorna, and he asked:

This kind of injury that can hinder the self-healing factor was done by Logan's knife?

right!

Lorna clenched her fists, and the sad girl said in a crying voice:

That damn knife was left to Laura by Merlin, she always had that knife with her, but it disappeared with Logan.

The little mute has beast perception! We all know that it is impossible for a stranger to successfully attack her. It must be someone close to her who made her defenseless!

The green-haired girl screamed coldly:

Who else is not Logan? We went to Bucharest to see. After Laura died, Logan disappeared without a trace. You must have hidden him! Who doesn't know your relationship with Logan?

Hand him over!

Lorna grabbed her fist and yelled:

Don't think that you can bully us if your brother is not on Earth now! He will come back soon, and by then, you will all die!

Merlin is not on Earth?

The professor in the wheelchair blinked, and there was a fleeting sense of relief in his eyes.

He thought for a moment, looked at Raven, and said:

Well, I admit, we did receive Logan's request for help in the early hours of the morning...

Ruiwen's eyes immediately became dangerous, and even Magneto was stunned.

He was completely unaware of this.

But wait!

The professor raised his hand to signal the two girls not to misunderstand, and he said slowly:

We have absolutely no intention of conflicting with Lord Merlin. Logan is our clansman, yes, but Laura is also a mutant. In this matter, we will absolutely not favor anyone.

Colossus and the rest of the X-Men are looking for Logan, and I'm sure they'll have word coming soon.

The professor breathed a sigh of relief, and he said sincerely:

You can stay here and wait. I will send Ororo and more people to deal with this matter. I will definitely give you an explanation.

Need not!

Riven and Lorna looked at each other, and she said:

We'll go find him! We'll find out the truth.

Also.

The professor nodded, he looked at Magneto, he said:

Eric, you go with them and bring Logan back.

Um.

Magneto glanced at Lorna beside him, nodded, and turned away with the two girls. A moment later, a black fighter plane took off from Utopia Island and flew into the clouds at supersonic speed.

Watching the plane disappear, the professor quickly connected to the fake Logan's communication again. He didn't talk nonsense, and said straightforwardly:

You sat down on the wrong thing, and now you are causing trouble. The queen's plan will fail because of your mistake, and the hope of the people will also be ruined because of your stupidity...but you still have the possibility of redemption.

The professor said coldly:

Just kill yourself, Colossus will properly arrange the rest.

There was no response from the communicator, but a sound similar to an explosion could be heard in the background. Obviously, the escape of the fake Logan was not smooth.

After several seconds, a jerky and hoarse voice sounded through the communicator.

False Logan said in a bitter tone:

Is this the only way left? Maybe I can leave this world by boat and lure them away. As long as I leave, the queen's plan will remain...

Stop being delusional, brother.

The professor sighed and said:

There is no other way left for you. The most powerful group of people in the world have joined your hunt. In the current situation, even if we want to save you, it is absolutely impossible.

And once you fall into their hands, you won't even be able to hide your secrets. They have many means, and you will become our Achilles' heel. The Queen may even be implicated.

I promise you, brother, your death will not be worthless, you will buy us more time, and we will not let you down.

He said:

The war between the Earth people and the Kree people will definitely break out, and the Skrulls will definitely seize the hope of rising! Your sacrifice will create a new tomorrow for us...I promise you!

There was no response for a long time.

The professor waited patiently.

After several minutes, the fake Logan's voice came again, saying:

For the people! For the queen!

boom

A piercing explosion came from the communicator, followed by a busy tone with no answer.

Under the sunshine of Utopia Island, the professor pursed his lips. He looked at the completely disconnected communication in his hand, and a sense of powerlessness and anger welled up in his heart. When he raised his head again, his eyes full of It's freezing.

Go easy, brother.

He said:

This world will be buried with you!

On the other side, in the forest outside the city of Sokovia, Liana, who was carrying the Great Sword of the Soul Slayer, looked expressionlessly at the completely destroyed valley in front of her, as well as the fire that was ignited in the terrifying explosion. trees.

The entire valley was blown up. The energy level of this explosion was too high. In her perception, there was no sign of life anymore.

Not far behind her, Colossus also witnessed the explosion. He clenched his fists and his eyes were filled with the anger of the same enemy, but when Liana turned his head, his face was full of sadness and puzzlement.

He asked:

Why?

He looked at his sister, and said in a blank tone:

Why would that monster...it killed itself, damn it.

Yes, it killed itself.

The Border Queen gritted her teeth and said:

The only chance to get the truth is gone. Logan killed Laura has become an unchangeable fact. We have no evidence to prove that Logan was wronged.

Once Merlin returns to this world and gets the news of his sister's death, think about it, what will he think of mutants...

Liana shook her head disinterestedly.

She grabbed her battle sword, turned her head and said to Colossus:

Utopia Island is over, the mutants are over, you should leave that organization as soon as possible, I'm going back to the border of hell... Merlin probably won't let me go, it's a hell of a thing.

Under the watchful eyes of Colossus, Liana disappeared in the red light and shadow.

But instead of going back to Limbo, she soon came to the mystery house.

In the hall, Daken, whose hands and feet were blown off, was healing himself. The guy grinned at the expressionless Liana, and said:

My job is done, right?

Well, so far, it's true.

The Queen of the Frontier sat on the sofa by the fireplace indifferently. She crossed her legs and looked at the little wolf girl who was sitting opposite, sipping yogurt. She joked:

They made up a lie that you died and made it into a death case with a string of performances, and you have to stay here until it's over. Grounding feels bad, doesn't it ?”

Faced with Liana's joke, the little wolf girl raised her head and bared her teeth at her sister.

She still doesn't like to talk very much when facing people who are not so close.

Just like the little dumb.

Don't eat, come and put on makeup, Laura!

Xuan Lan walked into the hall with a complicated makeup box, she said to Little Wolf Girl:

I will temporarily extract your soul in a while, you still have a 'performance'.

The housekeeper squatted in front of the little wolf girl, took out various tools, and started to smear some blood on Laura's face and neck. She reached out and patted the obedient Laura on the head, and said:

You're going to set off your brother's final appearance, which will be the last link in the net.

The appearance of the ultimate villain will definitely scare them.

—————————————

Later that day, in the basement of the Hell's Kitchen room, the professor, who was being pushed by Storm in his wheelchair, was in pain, his eyes full of grief and despair over the loss of his people.

He even shed tears.

A look of compassion.

On the stone platform in front of him, the corpse of the little wolf girl Laura was placed there.

This girl has no breathing, her body is covered with wounds that cannot heal, and her face is covered with blood. She has no life activities, her soul has left her body, and only a cold body is left accusing the truth of death.

Death, which cannot be faked...

In the professor's perception, he has confirmed the result of Laura's death, and the last detail of this sudden incident has been completed.

Fortunately, the self-sacrifice of the fake Logan finally temporarily concealed the truth of the matter.

It's not going to end like this!

In front of the professor, the arrogant queen stretched out her finger and stroked Laura's cheek with extreme pain. She held a handkerchief in her hand and was cleaning up the wounds on Laura's body.

With her back turned to the professor, she said:

My brother will not allow this to end like this...

I know, the X-Men and I will continue to investigate.

Professor Shen Sheng said:

I will definitely find the truth and give Laura and Logan a final confession. No matter who planned this, we will definitely find him.

I'm coming to Laura's funeral, please be sure to let us know.

The professor said something, but the next moment, a familiar voice sounded from the corner of the basement, and he said:

There will be no funeral!

Um?

The professor turned his head suddenly, and saw Merlin stepping out of the shadows.

To be honest, the professor was really scared at this moment.

But soon, he noticed that this Merlin's body was somewhat illusory, not real, it was just an astral projection, which made the professor feel relieved.

There will be no funeral for my sister.

Merlin's projection came to Ruiwen's side, reached out and patted Ruiwen's shoulder, he put his arms around his sister's waist, and let Ruiwen cry softly on his shoulder, that scene was full of grief of losing a loved one.

The Maharaja himself stretched out his fingers and stroked Laura's black hair, and said without looking back:

I am the Lord of Hell, and I hold the power of the soul. My sister will not just die inexplicably. I will come back to this world soon, and a month later, my Laura will be resurrected...

It's like my resurrection.

Merlin's voice was as cold as ice at this moment, like a heavy warning, like a knocked seed, reverberating in the heart of Professor Charles whose complexion changed slightly.

By that time, all the hidden truths will be revealed.

One month later, the Judgment of the Crows will come here, and the bloody feast will begin. No one can stop my revenge. Everyone who participated in this matter... must die!

Never mind them, or who they are!
