  "Alright, go down."

  After waving his hand to dispel the ghostly fog, Lin Xiao's gaze shifted to the side where Qin was shrouded in a black robe.

  "What are you looking at me for?" Perhaps unable to bear Lin Xiao's eerie gaze, Qin furrowed her brow and said.

  "Nothing." Lin Xiao withdrew his gaze and walked towards the balcony.

  This is his temporary residence in London, UK, and he will stay here until things are settled on this side of Europe.

  Of course, he is not the only one living here, Qin also lives here.

  Looking out at the dark night sky outside, the city's sky is like this, a complete darkness, not even half a star can be seen.

  Hearing the footsteps coming from behind, Lin Xiao knew that Qin had arrived. Just thinking about this terrifyingly powerful guy made Lin Xiao feel a pang of envy. She herself had to work hard and exhaustively, like a dog, just to raise her mental power to level 8, with a total combat strength of only around eighty points. But Qin was different - she didn't need to do anything, she was naturally gifted in this area.

  Even though it was sealed for nearly twenty years, its combat power increased directly to over 200 after coming out.

  Not bad! The combat power of the piano is over 200, and it has reached a height of 287 points.

  "A second-rate martial artist who is almost as good as a third-rate one, what a freak." Lin Xiao glanced at Qin again, who was already walking beside him, and thought to himself.

  Qin really couldn't stand Lin Xiao's eerie gaze anymore, she had already discovered this eerie gaze more than a dozen times in the past few days, always occasionally glancing at herself, making her skin crawl.

  "Lin, is there something you want to say to me?" Qin was really tired of being looked at by Lin Xiao with this kind of gaze. She decided to ask things clearly. Otherwise, she should consider whether she should leave or not.

  "Ah?" Lin Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and then came back to his senses from his thoughts, couldn't help but ask in confusion: "I don't have anything to say, what's wrong?"

  "Then why do you always look at me with that weird gaze?" Qin raised her head and stared at Lin Xiao.

  "Uh... That..." Lin Xiao's face suddenly turned red with sweat, of course he couldn't say that he was envious of her effortless strength. After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiao suddenly came up with an excuse.

  "I'm just curious, you've been following me for several days now, are you planning on continuing like this?"

  "Can't I?" Qin's face turned stern, "If you're annoyed, I can leave."

  As she spoke, Qin made a gesture as if she was about to turn around and leave.

  Lin Xiao took a glance and quickly pulled her back.

  "No, I'm just curious. You used to follow Professor X around all the time, if you saw what I've been doing these days, you would have probably called me out on it already. But you haven't said a word in days, that's why I'm curious, no other meaning." Lin Xiao hastily explained.

  He didn't dare let Qín leave his line of sight, who knows what she would do before he completed his task. This uncontrollable force must be tied to him.

  Lin Xiao's words made Qin's face change color several times.

  Half a minute later, she finally responded with a cold hum.

  "I'm bored, I'll go back to my room and rest."

  She flung open Lin Xiao's hand and slammed into the door with a "bang".

  Lin Xiao blinked, half a beat later he let out a bitter laugh and rubbed his nose, his face full of helplessness.

  "Is that what's making you angry? Depressed." Shaking her head. At least Qín didn't plan to leave again, as long as she didn't leave, being angry was fine.

  Turning around, Lin Xiao's hands grasped the railing of the balcony, her gaze looking out at the distant end of the city.

  "This world will eventually be mine, Lin Xiao's!"

  Creak!

  The metal railing in Lin Xiao's hand gradually deformed, emitting a harsh and unpleasant sound.

  ……

  As the territory of Huangquan organization expanded time and again, variant people from all over the world swarmed in like cats smelling fishy smell.

  In just half a month's time, the number of variant humans within the Huangquan organization increased fivefold, and all of Europe, including nearly half of Asia, fell under the control of the Huangquan organization.

  Although they did it very secretly, trying to keep a low profile, and not exposing their actions before they were completed, but no one can predict what will happen under the sky.

  The actions of Huangquan organization were thoroughly exposed a month later.

  In an instant, apart from those countries already under the control of Huang Quan organization, all other countries were suddenly thrown into chaos.

  Led by the United States, the countries of North and South America formed a massive anti-mutant alliance, while half of Asia's population within the fallen Europe also condemned their local governments. Fortunately, Lin Xiao had ordered his subordinates to issue a series of decrees in the first place.

  It has to be said that ordinary people have gradually developed a slave mentality after being oppressed by this society for a long time. As long as the government appears strong and gives some reason, no matter how far-fetched it is, they will still cooperate in action even if they oppose and curse with their mouths.

  Gradually, citizens in these fallen countries found that their lives had hardly changed, if anything, they became even better than before.

  The government issued a series of policies that benefited the people, although most of these policies were biased towards mutants, treating them as a superior race to ordinary humans. However, they did not find themselves being oppressed, and instead many people began to yearn for becoming mutants themselves now that the local government no longer discriminated against them.

  People are such strange creatures, when most people agree on something, sometimes they have different thoughts in their hearts, but in order not to be excluded by others, they will still choose another option, but when Lin Xiao throws them a bait, they immediately turn around and make choices that follow their own hearts.

  Who wouldn't want to have those magical powers, who wouldn't want to be a member of the special group, previously rejected mutants. The first reason is jealousy and the second is due to the local government's attitude.

  The government's attitude has changed, and they have also learned that they may become one of the mutants in the near future. Since all the reasons for them to reject the mutants have disappeared, what reason do they still have not to accept this ethnic group?

  Compared to the transformation of citizens in these fallen countries, citizens in other non-fallen countries still hold a hostile attitude towards mutants, and this attitude is even stronger than before.

  In Lin Xiao's view, this is simply sour grapes. Seeing that many other countries have already accepted mutants and will have the opportunity to become one of them in the future, while people like him do not have this opportunity. Under the influence of jealousy, some of these people naturally become more hostile towards mutants.

  If I can't get it, why should others be able to?

  The flames of war have been completely ignited.

  This is no longer a fight between a few mutants and humans, this is a fight between all mutants and humans.

  Wan Ci Wang had brought his men to Tibet, within the borders of Asia's Hua Xia, a few days ago and joined forces with Lin Xiao. At this time, Lin Xiao needed powerful external support, and Wan Ci Wang was able to provide it at just the right moment, making him extremely happy.

  On the other hand, a group of mutants led by Professor X chose to help neither side. If they helped humans, they would be traitors to their own kind; if they helped Lykos and his followers, they would not want to see casualties either. So they could only choose to help neither side.

  Previously, Professor X could still counterattack against mutants like Magneto for the sake of peace between humans and mutants, but now the situation has changed, there is no longer any possibility of peace between humans and mutants, nor will it exist in the future.

  Either mutant supremacy prevails and mutants rule over humans. Or human supremacy prevails and humans rule over mutants.

  There are only two roads, no third choice.

  Apart from Magneto who came to assist from the United States, Lin Xiao's side also joined some other powerful mutant nations. They did not express their intention to join the Yellow Spring organization, but they had the same promise as Lin Xiao and hoped that mutants could win in this war, so they chose to come and help Lin Xiao resist the enemy together, but they would not join the Yellow Spring organization and become Lin Xiao's subordinates.

  At this time, in the huge hall inside the Potala Palace in Tibet, a super-large conference table made of superalloy was placed here. More than 30 powerful 4th-level variant people led by Lin Xiao surrounded the conference table and took their seats.

  "First of all, I am very glad that you can all work together at this critical moment. Here, I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone present!"

  Lin Xiao stood up and bowed to everyone present.

  "Leader of the Huangquan, there's no need to be so polite. We're all mutants, and humans have oppressed us time and again over the past hundred years or more. Now it's time for them to get a taste of their own medicine!"

  The man who spoke was named Caris. He wore only a loincloth of animal hide, and his face was framed by a thick beard that reached to his chest.

  He is a 4th-level mutant from Russia, who used to live in the mountains and lived a life of eating raw meat and drinking blood. After hearing the news that mutants and humans were at war, he immediately inquired about most of the information about this matter, and then resolutely decided to come and help Lin Xiao defeat humanity.

  Lin Xiao smiled and nodded, then sat down again.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I won't say much about the big principles. Since you are all willing to help me out, I believe you are all understanding people. So let's get straight to this time's action plan."

  For these people, Lin Xiao also had no intention of recruiting them. After conquering the remaining half of Asia and North and South America this time, his mission would be completed. In the following days, he would go to various parts of the world to search for possible heavenly treasures and earthly riches to enhance his own strength.

  Moreover, which of these people is not a proud and arrogant person, how can they possibly obediently listen to his orders? Even if Lin Xiao uses force to subdue them, they will only pretend to obey on the surface, but who knows what kind of small actions they will take behind his back.

  So Lin Xiao got straight to the point and didn't mention anything about racial righteousness or whatever. (..)
