Chapter 120: A Fierce Confrontation!

  The United States, The White House.

  In the grand conference room, events unfolding in three locations in San Diego were being broadcast. The people seated there were not just anyone - a single foot stomp from any of them would be enough to shake the entire United States. Yet at this moment, everyone's face was ashen, with gritted teeth and a look of clenched jaws.

  It's worth mentioning that the beast with a blue body and blue fur is also here, but at this moment, its state isn't very good. Feeling the numerous hostile gazes directed towards itself, the beast's heart is crying out in distress.

  But no matter how much he complained in his heart, at this moment, he was speechless.

  The screen freezes as the current President of the United States turns his head to look at everyone present.

  "I have to admit, the existence of mutants has already endangered the safety of the American people." Perhaps seeing the Beast sitting there, the President changed his tone and said, "Of course, mutants like you are in the minority."

  "Mr. President, let me handle this matter!" The beast stood up and said.

  All along, matters concerning Variants had always been handled by the Beasts, and no one had ever competed with them for this job. However, it seemed that this time was an exception.

  "I think this matter can no longer be resolved through diplomatic means, we must use force to suppress the spread of this evil force!" A veteran general wearing a military uniform with numerous medals on his chest said solemnly.

  His words immediately won the approval of a large number of people, and everyone agreed to use force to suppress this group of damned, ungrateful, and abominable mutants!

  The president's eyes were somewhat hesitant, and he looked again at the defense minister beside him, wanting to ask for his opinion.

  "Mr. President, I also believe that this has already seriously endangered national security and must be suppressed by force, otherwise the situation will continue to deteriorate, and if we continue to discuss it like this, I'm afraid those mutants will escape!"

  The implication is to let the president decide quickly, if they let that group of mutants escape, it will be difficult for them to find again.

  "Mr. President!" The beast stood up and wanted to say something else, but saw the president shake his head, so he swallowed back what he wanted to say again.

  "General Smith, I'm leaving this matter to you. I don't want to see any reports of bloody massacres in tomorrow's newspapers. I hope you can handle it well." The President dropped these words and stood up, the affairs of mutants were really annoying him, more precisely, he was not a ruthless president, unlike his predecessor, he disliked seeing violent incidents occur, such things always made him particularly disgusted.

  "Maybe I'm not suitable for being the president after all?" he thought to himself.

  ……

  The meeting on this side has ended, and General Smiths has already begun to deploy troops. Several armed helicopters took off with him to San Diego, while several military bases in San Diego also received orders from their superiors to cooperate with General Smith's actions.

  On the other hand, Professor X also received a message from Beast and learned about the President's decision. He immediately took Scott and others to rush to San Diego without stopping.

  Professor X had no idea that his arch-nemesis Magneto had arrived in San Diego a step ahead of him.

  Unlike the original play, his subordinates are no longer just a few big cats and small cats. The news brought back by Mo Xing Nu made Wang Chi King think of recruiting more subordinates. This idea emerged and spread uncontrollably, and as a result, Wang Chi King made a decision on the second day.

  He wants to recruit more like-minded people to work together to fulfill his grand wish!

  In just half a month, Wang Mang used his own strength to subdue more than 20 powerful mutants, among whom four were third-level mutants. In terms of the proportion of third-level mutants alone, he was far higher than Lin Xiao.

  He arrived in Santiago with all his troops.

  But at this time, Santiago had already become a hell on earth.

  Ordinary citizens fled in panic from the dangerous place, a large number of police and soldiers rushed to the streets, tanks, helicopters, and even fighter jets were dispatched.

  "Humans are still so fragile and incompetent." The Magnetic King stood on the top floor of a high-rise building, his gaze filled with intense disdain.

  He could block thousands of missiles with one hand when he was young, and now his ability has become even stronger, and he can remain calm in the face of hundreds of thousands of troops.

  Human weapons are all made of metal, which is their most fatal weakness when facing the Magnet King.

  "Let's go, we're going to meet the great leader of the Yellow Spring!" Wanji Wang waved his cloak behind him, directly moving the iron plates under his subordinates' feet, carrying them flying through the sky towards the City Hall of Santiago.

  10:20

  The entire city hall has been surrounded by water and is impassable, with over a dozen tanks forming a circle, coordinating with tens of thousands of well-equipped soldiers to surround the entire city hall.

  Bullets and shells flying everywhere!

  In the sky, the sound of helicopter rotors was so loud and chaotic, the six-barreled machine guns mounted on the armed helicopters continuously swept across those mutated humans who had occupied the city hall.

  But whether it's a shell or a bullet, once it approaches the city hall, it will be blocked by an invisible barrier, and not even a single blade of grass inside the city hall has been damaged.

  The soldiers' faces were ashen, their eyes fixed on the few mutants standing on the second floor of the city hall, with most of their gazes locked onto the figure in the middle wearing a white skull mask and draped in a blood-red cloak.

  Lin Xiao knew Professor X would come, so he naturally had to dress up properly. In addition to the mask on his face, he now added a crimson cloak to himself, and also put on a layer of mental force shield that enveloped every part of his body, completely shielding all his corners and edges.

  Human attacks were nothing to Lin Xiao, those bullets and shells couldn't break through the layer of mental barrier he set up, since his mental power was upgraded to 6th level, it was the first time he truly used it.

  It seems like it's actually quite effective now.

  "The troops gathered on this side of the city hall are probably less than a tenth of the total number." Lin Xiao said to himself, looking at the tanks and armed helicopters.

  The several subordinates standing behind him were extremely nervous at this moment, they had only lived in the lower levels of society before following Lin Xiao, and had never seen such a grand formation. Although they were excited, some tension was inevitable.

  Anyone who sees the hail of bullets like a metal storm and the non-stop exploding shells would feel tense, but this world has been instilled in them since birth with knowledge that tells them these things are lethal.
