He could sense that the lightning in this person's hand was not simple!
That was not something an ordinary mutant could do—charging and discharging—but something that was infinitely close to lightning in nature!
No, not possible!
Magneto shook his head, forcibly suppressing those "unreliable" thoughts in his mind.
He told himself this silently.
A person's abilities have limits.
No matter how strong this young man is, he is still just a human being!
Although it's unknown how he obtained power greater than that of an Omega-level mutant like himself.
But having two or three such powers is already the limit!
How could one possibly reach the pinnacle of every superpower?
That's right! That's exactly it!
Perhaps, the lightning in that young man's hand was already the limit of what he could do!
If I just hold on for a while, and as long as my control and output of the magnetic field are stable enough, I may be able to forcibly reverse and suppress the electromagnetic field created by the other party!
With this thought in mind, the last hesitation in Magneto's eyes was replaced by resolute determination.
"Hmph! Don't think you can scare me with such a little trick!"
Magneto roared, suddenly pushing his control over the magnetic field to an unprecedented extreme!
Because he exerted too much force, even the veins around his temples bulged out.
As he unleashed his full power, invisible magnetic lines of force expanded, intertwined, and overlapped outwards from him, forming an absolute barrier in front of him constructed of pure repulsive force. Its strength was so exaggerated that it could be observed with the naked eye.
The metal fragments he forcibly separated from the ruins now transformed into his most loyal guards, spinning rapidly around him and forming an additional layer of strangulation storm.
But Peter remained nonchalant in the face of Magneto's efforts.
He simply stood calmly, his feet barely touching the air, facing the terrifying magnetic field that could distort light, and slowly moved forward step by step.
The lightning in his hand visibly deformed as he moved forward due to interference from the magnetic field.
But that's all. Although the magnetic field can cause fluctuations in the shape of lightning, it can never stop the lightning from moving forward.
Sizzle~
The storm of metal shavings was the first to come into contact with Chidori, but the moment it touched the lightning, it was demagnetized by the high temperature and high voltage arc, turning into tiny specks that fell away.
After breaking through the metal storm, Peter calmly continued on his way.
Magneto's forehead was also beaded with cold sweat.
The second floor, the third floor...
Layer upon layer of magnetic barriers were breached by terrifying electric current.
Magneto's face began to turn pale, his body trembled slightly from the overload of his abilities, and a streak of bright red blood flowed down his nose.
That's a sign that the ability has been overused and has damaged the foundation!
Peter's figure became clearer and clearer in Magneto's ever-expanding pupils.
In the blink of an eye, the lightning was less than three inches away from his heart.
He could even smell the ozone that was ionized in the air.
The shadow of death has never been so intense.
But just then...
snort~
The unstoppable lightning bolt stopped without warning.
"..."
Magneto was stunned.
Overwhelmed by the immense relief of surviving the ordeal, he almost collapsed to the ground uncontrollably.
He felt his heart pounding like a drum, and when he looked at Peter, who was so close, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face, a mixture of lingering fear and smugness.
Won!
In the end, Magneto won this battle between electricity and magnetism!
"I told you, don't underestimate this little thing..."
Magneto was about to say something to mock Peter's overestimation of his abilities, and at the same time vent his fear of having just narrowly escaped death.
But before he could finish speaking, Storm and Psylocke's screams, a mixture of shock and horror, came from not far away:
"What is that?!"
If it were those kids from Xavier's School making a fuss, he would just scoff and dismiss it as some kind of silly trick like "Look, a UFO!"
But since it was Storm and Psylocke, both of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who spoke up, he couldn't help but take them seriously.
He subconsciously followed their gazes, turned his head with difficulty, and looked up at the sky above him.
Just one glance.
Magneto's smile froze completely.
He opened his mouth wide, making a hissing sound like a leaky bellows, and the horror in his eyes was a hundred times more intense than when he faced death just now!
From the thick, leaden clouds overhead, a head so enormous it defies description suddenly appeared.
It was a mythical creature composed entirely of billions of bolts of lightning!
It has two horns on its head, looks like a giant dragon, and every scale flashes with destructive lightning.
Although it has no physical form, it is more oppressive than flesh and blood.
Those eyes, composed entirely of lightning, now pierced through the thick clouds, coldly and indifferently locking onto him!
"Ta-da! Congratulations on passing the second level!"
Just as he felt his soul tremble, a nonchalant, slightly mocking voice came from behind him.
"This move is called 'Lightning Release: Kirin'!"
"So, do you like it?"
I love you, Thunder!
At that moment, Magneto felt like he was going crazy.
Such a dramatic rise and fall between life and death was an incredibly damaging blow to someone with such an unruly personality.
But this is only one part of Peter's manipulation of people's mentality.
Peter dismissed the Thousand Birds from his hand, crossed his arms, and leisurely watched Magneto's face, which was filled with blankness and fear, his smile growing increasingly sinister:
"Speaking of which, you really have to thank your white-haired friend for being able to create such a big thing."
He pointed at Storm, who looked completely bewildered in the distance.
"If she hadn't accumulated so much charge beforehand, I really wouldn't have been able to shake this little darling out!"
Chapter 388 Old Deng, it's your turn.
Damn it!
Magneto knew that Peter was just trying to irritate him when he said that.
But when he heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head and give Storm a resentful look.
That look seemed to say:
There is a traitor among us!
Roar! ! !
The moment he gave that look, the lightning unicorn in the clouds completely lost its patience.
It let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth!
Immediately afterwards, the massive lightning bolt swooped down from the dark clouds, heading straight for Magneto, who had already lost the ability to think!
The moment that giant claw made of lightning stepped on Magneto,
The heavens and earth changed color.
Magneto's prized magnetic field barrier, the metallic storm surrounding him, and even his helmet that could block telepathy, were as fragile as a thin sheet of paper in the face of this lightning strike, which represented the most violent force in nature.
Boom!!!
The belated roar almost shook the earth.
The children in the academy couldn't help but cover their ears and close their eyes.
Only when the intense light, which couldn't be blocked by eyelids, completely dissipated did everyone dare to cautiously open their eyes a tiny crack.
"OMG~!"
Li Qianhuan couldn't help but let out such a gasp.
A shockwave, visible to the naked eye, swept across the area centered on the point where the Qilin landed.
Countless newly sprouted towering trees were uprooted and turned to dust.
The solid earth was ploughed into a huge, scorched pit, tens of meters deep and over a kilometer in diameter.
The terrifying lightning was still raging in the pit, burning the soil at the bottom into a glassy state.
In the center of the deep pit, only a human-shaped charred body lay there, its body emitting blue smoke, with only a faint breath left in its mouth.
Professor X's legs went weak at the sight, and he almost collapsed to his knees.
"Eric!!!"
He let out a cry of anguish, then rushed headlong into the pit, desperate to check on his close friend with whom he held differing beliefs.
Peter couldn't help but twitch his eye at the sight, and couldn't help but mentally complain:
