But then, on the second-floor corridor, a guy dressed in a suit, holding a wine glass, looking incredibly pretentious and exuding an air of superiority, appeared.

He looked down at the crowd in the lobby on the first floor, a confident smile on his face.

Everyone in the lobby on the first floor looked up at the same time.

One gaze after another fell upon Xiao's face.

The crowd's expressions turned rather grim.

Because it's already very obvious that this is indeed a trap that Xiao has prepared for everyone.

Even so, everyone had no choice but to bite the bullet and come in.

After all, this was the only chance they had to catch Xiao in such a long time.

"It really is Xiao?"

Luo Xia was somewhat surprised.

As everyone knows from television news, US-Soviet relations have become extremely tense and severe, and are about to reach a freezing point, with a missile crisis between the two countries imminent.

At this time, shouldn't Xiao be actively manipulating the situation between the two countries? Why would he have time to appear here?

Rorschach always felt that something was off.

But the person in front of me is indeed Xiao, there's no doubt about that.

"resemble!"

Eric gritted his teeth.

He just looked up, his eyes fixed on the Black Emperor, as if he wanted to devour him.

Fueled by his anger, the chandeliers on the hall ceiling began to sway, and various metal objects throughout the hall trembled as well.

This left all the ordinary people in the hall completely bewildered.

"Eric, not now! Not now! There are still ordinary people here!"

Charles called out to Eric.

Eric gave a cold laugh, then suddenly reached out and made a gesture towards the chandeliers on the ceiling. The metal frames inside the chandeliers suddenly deformed.

Clang!

Clang!

All the chandeliers exploded immediately.

"what!"

Exclamations of alarm erupted from the scene as everyone scattered in terror.

In just a short while, the once bustling hall became completely empty.

Eric waved his hand again.

Bang!

Bang!

The hotel doors were also locked, preventing anyone else from entering.

The matter was resolved perfectly.

Charles frowned. Eric's volatile and easily angered personality, prone to extremes, was on full display at this moment.

In fact, they could have used a more gentle approach to disperse the crowd; in fact, he had already planned to do so.

[New task generated:]

The mission is as follows: thwart the plot and ambush of the Black King Sebastian Shaw.

[Task Reward: 700 Origin Points]

Just as Luo Xia was confronting the Black Emperor, several notification sounds rang in his mind.

Finally, another mission has arrived!

Luo Xia's eyes lit up immediately, and this mission had a full seven hundred Origin Points, more than all the previous missions combined.

This made Rorschach very satisfied.

This trip to Manhattan was definitely worthwhile.

"Well, that's quite a temper."

Xiao's voice rang out, still as deliberate as ever, with a haughty smile on his face, "Fellow countrymen, I know why you have come, but I am still willing to give you a chance."

"Will you follow me to create a new era for mutants and reclaim the rightful place we mutants deserve, or will you be my enemy?"

"This is my last chance for you, so you should think it over carefully."

"I show no mercy to my enemies."

Chapter 051 Mutant Melee

"Xiao, that was not some new era, it was a shameful and heinous massacre!"

"What you're doing now is a hundred times worse than what that mustache did back then!"

Charles raised his head and launched a relentless accusation against the Black King.

He had already read the White Queen's memories and knew about the Black Emperor's plan to start a nuclear war on Earth, so his anger was not feigned.

"It seems you've chosen to be an ordinary human."

The Black King didn't argue with Charles; he simply silently sentenced Charles to death, and that was all.

Swish swish!

A faint sound of something cutting through the air could be heard.

However, Eric controlled all the metal objects in the hall, including metal ornaments, the knives and forks in the dining area, and so on.

They began firing wildly at the Black Emperor on the second floor.

But at that moment, the door behind Black Emperor suddenly opened, and a person quickly darted out, placing a hand on Black Emperor's shoulder.

The two of them suddenly became semi-transparent.

Chi Chi Chi!

All the metal objects simply passed through their bodies and struck the corridor and walls behind them.

It didn't harm the Black Emperor in the slightest.

"Holy crap, Kamui?"

Luo Xia couldn't help but complain, "How can you make yourself become ethereal? That's just illogical!"

Eric's face turned ugly.

"It seems you have made your choice."

After Eric's wave of attacks subsided, the ethereal man wisely removed his hand from Black Emperor, and Black Emperor returned to normal.

He said to everyone with a disappointed look on his face.

"In that case, I have no choice but to eliminate you all."

Following Black King's words, the other four mutants emerged one by one from the rooms connected by the corridor.

Although their abilities are not immediately apparent, just by looking at their aura, everyone can tell that these people are no ordinary individuals.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely depressing.

"resemble!"

Eric let out a furious roar, spread his hands, and once again controlled the metal objects to launch an attack on the Black Emperor.

But this time, before the metal objects could get close to Xiao, a person dressed like a ninja suddenly jumped down from the second floor.

Like a nimble wild goose, it crashed down in front of Eric.

He swung a samurai sword at Eric's head.

Eric instinctively tried to control the other person's katana, but found that the katana wasn't made of metal at all, and he couldn't control it at all.

"not good!"

In that brief moment of delay, the ninja's katana had already reached Eric.

laugh!

At this critical moment, Rorschach, who was standing nearby, shot a heat beam that struck the ninja's katana directly.

The opponent's katana was then deflected.

"Thanks, Rorschach!"

Eric, still shaken, thanked Rorschach and then began controlling the metal objects, firing them continuously at the ninja.

Swish swish!

But the opponent wielded a katana with impenetrable skill, blocking all of Eric's attacks.

"You have this trick up your sleeve?"

On the second floor, Black Emperor, who had been watching the spectacle with amusement, couldn't help but look at Luo Xia with utter astonishment.

Luo Xia glanced up at the Black Emperor, but did not easily confront him.

He had already experienced Xiao's abilities firsthand; all his attacks were ineffective against him.

Not only Rorschach, but also the Destroyer, the Siren, and others did not rashly launch an attack on Shaw.

Charles had specifically instructed everyone before they arrived that the Black Emperor could absorb abilities, and any attack would be counterproductive.

Therefore, no one will attack Xiao indiscriminately.

Eric, however, was completely unable to control his emotions when he saw his mortal enemy standing before him, which is why he made such an impulsive move.

No one but Charles could deal with Shaw.

This is something that not only Luo Xia and others understand, but even the Black Emperor understands it.
