I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.
Chapter 469 The Truth About Nimrod: The X Gene
Chapter 469 The Truth About Nimrod: The X Gene
Yesterday was a chaotic day for the Avengers.
AIM and the Brotherhood of Mutants launched attacks simultaneously, in addition to Doctor Octopus and Electro's planned prison break of the Raft Prison. The Raft Prison is currently unable to function properly, so Pym had to activate the backup mansion and place the mansion prison within the conference room of Avengers Tower.
In addition, they need to conduct a comprehensive analysis of information about Ninglu.
"Based on the information we currently have, the Nimrod Sentinels are essentially an upgraded version of the Super-Adaptors, although this upgrade is a bit overdone." Tony, unusually adopting an old-fashioned style, found a large piece of glass and drew a chibi-style Nimrod on it with a water-based pen.
"His strength, combat ability, and targeted skills have all been greatly enhanced, and he can even resist magic. But the problem is that he has not shown the most powerful abilities that we originally knew about the Nimrod Sentinels."
“The ability to copy the X gene.” Pym continued the conversation: “Not only did it fail to copy the abilities of the two mutants present, but it also seems to have lost the ability to mimic the abilities of the lower-level super-adaptor.”
The little wasp listened to the two scientists speaking in a cryptic manner, then looked at them and repeatedly asked, "Then...why?"
"The current outcome is... we don't know." Bruce Banner paced back and forth, his glasses on. Nimrod's crushing domination of the Hulk gave him a sense of... unprecedented ease. For some reason, he felt he could hear the Hulk's roars a little less often.
But the problem is, sometimes what people need is the Hulk.
"So we handed this problem over to the experts, mutant experts." Tony shrugged helplessly. "We had Sonic send some of Nimrod's samples to Xavier's School of Geniuses, hoping they could offer some advice."
At this very moment, at Xavier's Academy of Geniuses, everyone was on high alert. This wasn't just because Nimrod's sample had been delivered, or because they'd heard that Nimrod had nearly single-handedly wiped out the entire Avengers, but also because Quicksilver had arrived at Xavier's Academy of Geniuses.
Although Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are twins, they don't look very alike. Quicksilver actually resembles his father more, while Magneto always says Wanda looks like her mother. So, the result is that a group of veteran X-Men, bored with a younger version of Magneto, are running around in the academy.
Of course, the X-Men's problem wasn't that. They gathered together, including Katie, and had Beast and the logistics engineer begin studying Nimrod's sample.
“We have some good news: Nimrod does indeed have no ability to replicate the X gene, at least not now,” the Beast concluded after examining the Nimrod sample with tools made by the craftsman.
The Craftsman is a veteran X-Men member, but he's never been a combatant. His ability is to create all sorts of imaginable mechanical devices through intuition, and to control the function of any device by sensing "mechanical energy"—in short, his "thinking power." Before he even realized he was a mutant, he helped the government create a mutant ability-suppressing collar—then he put it on himself and found himself malfunctioning, only then realizing he was a mutant too.
But if I disregard my own speculation, he is still an excellent, even outstanding, engineer.
“Um, if I’m not mistaken, this metal seems to have some biological properties.” The craftsman looked at the analysis report with a half-understanding: “In other words, if possible, it might be able to undergo semi-biological modification.”
"So, it can have the X gene implanted?"
“That’s so different from the Nimrod we know, and he can’t be this threatening.” Beast disagreed with Iceman’s conclusion. If Nimrod had to capture mutants and inject them with his genes every time, that would be too stupid. “The best way is to find a mutant who can reflect all the genetic characteristics of mutants, and even combine them to show different genetic features at the same time.”
To be fair, when this description is mentioned, Cyclops and the other X-Men's first impression is now Mr. Ominous. Mr. Ominous can certainly cause these kinds of trouble, but the problem is, they don't believe he intends to do it.
"Why not Mystique or someone similar?"
“I wouldn’t be surprised if Mystique or someone with similar abilities could become Logan. But how would he become Magneto?” Cyclops sighed, then summarized the abilities the other person would need: “Unless the other person can store the abilities of different people within themselves, like Mr. Sinister, preferably without artificial implantation, but simply through contact…”
At this point, Cyclops fell silent. Then, the professor seemed to finally realize something and asked in alarm.
"Wait, you still haven't found Rakshasa?"
“…We don’t know where she went. The X-Men have been rebuilt for so long. If she wanted to come back, she would have done so long ago. We have no choice but to respect her wishes and not look for her.” Cyclops awkwardly pushed up his glasses and then looked at the White Queen: “Emma, could you please use your brainwave device to find out where Anna Marie is? We need to ensure her safety, especially to make sure she doesn’t get caught by Nimrod.”
On Earth 811, the elderly professor who received the message was so surprised that he disconnected from the communication and then saw Logan beside him: "Logan, you never told me that you never found the Rakshasa."
"We don't have... what's wrong?"
"Hank and the others said that Rakshasa is likely the key to all of this." The professor rubbed his temples. "It was either Nimrod or the Sentinels who captured her and used her abilities to create so many Nimrod Sentinels."
"If that's the case, then she should still be alive."
After a while, Peter, having listened to the professor's detailed account, concluded: "Based on their past Nimrod anatomy, it can be determined that this manufacturing process was not innate. In other words, every Nimrod Sentinel needs to have Rakshasa's genes implanted after its manufacture."
“Then she must be at the Nimrod manufacturing plant.” Logan snorted twice, then sighed helplessly: “But we still don’t know where the Nimrod manufacturing base is. We’ve destroyed several Sentinel prototypes, but those were prototypes for modifying human Sentinels or creating ordinary Sentinels. We still don’t know where the Nimrod prototype is.”
“Right, the Mother Model.” The professor thought of this and re-established telepathy with Katie, who was in a deep sleep wearing a brainwave device: “We need to inform them about the Mother Model. Logan, do you know where the Mother Model was at that time?”
“I saw it once, underground in Kenosha.”
"what?!"
