X Academy

"Scott, take Storm and the others and try to persuade the child," Professor Xavier, sitting in his wheelchair, instructed Scott who was standing not far away.

"I'll go too," Logan raised his hand.

Chris and a few others also expressed their desire to go along.

Charles considered their relationship with the child and agreed to their suggestion.

Brotherhood of Mutants

Magneto sat in his chair, pondering for a while before deciding to send Mystique to talk to the child.

Soon, Mystique set off with a few mutants.

Meanwhile

At Base 23, black Sentinel robots suddenly raised their heads and looked into the distance, moving in unison.

Swish, swish, swish, they quickly flew towards their target.

In addition to them, Tony had also donned his suit and was heading towards the same location.

There were also individuals from other forces heading there quietly, including but not limited to Hydra, the Dabari aliens, and others...

Messiah City

Since the arrival of the Messiah, the city had been renamed to Messiah City. At this moment, the twelve disciples of the Messiah, all mutants, were having a serious discussion.

"Why are you nervous? Let them come. Do you think we would be afraid?" said Ayana, the Crystal Man, a tall and lean man with black skin, sitting in his chair indifferently.

"Indeed, no matter who they are, they won't be our match!" Heidi, a red-haired woman in white, smiled.

Beside her sat Kirill and Mark, both of whom had once encountered Syd and were awed by his terrifying power. Since witnessing his god-like destruction, they had admired him greatly, believing him to be the god of mutants, the one who could save them. So, when they heard about the Messiah recruiting disciples, they came without hesitation.

Although the twelve disciples were chosen through a competition where the weak were eliminated, the initial spots were more available, so the three managed to secure positions. However, they would lose their spots if stronger newcomers appeared.

Heidi smiled at the other eleven disciples, "Moreover, with the god-like Messiah here, how could those weaklings be our match?"

A chorus of agreement followed her words.

"Yes!"

"With Messiah-sama here, those people are no match!"

"Messiah-sama is an Omega-level mutant. Those people seeking trouble with such a powerful mutant are seeking death!"

Half an hour later, a black fighter jet landed outside Messiah City.

As the hatch opened, Logan and others, dressed in black X-Men uniforms, stepped out.

"This is Messiah City?"

"Where is Syd?"

Cyclops and the others examined the small city ahead.

Soon, they grabbed a city resident.

"Brother, do you know where Messiah is?" Otto, a middle-aged man with a wrinkled face, asked a passerby.

Initially feeling annoyed at being stopped, the young white man Bob's expression changed to one of fear.

"At the center of the city. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have things to do," Bob said quickly and then hurriedly ran away.

Logan and the others exchanged glances, noticing the fear in the young man's eyes.

"It seems Syd isn't very popular," Otto remarked.

As they spoke, they made their way towards the city center.

However, halfway there, they saw tall, black humanoid figures flying past in the distance.

"Sentinel robots!" They recognized them immediately, and their faces changed.

One, two, ten…

Seeing only ten, Logan and the others sighed in relief but were also puzzled.

These ten Sentinels were undoubtedly sent to deal with Syd. After learning their lesson, knowing Syd's strength, why did the authorities only send ten Sentinels? It seemed like a death mission.

Scott and the others were perplexed.

Thinking about it, they hurried towards the city center.

By now, other forces had also arrived and were heading towards the city center.

When Logan and the others approached the center, they saw ten Sentinels standing outside a tall building, not making a move.

"What are they doing?" Logan wondered, "Why aren't they attacking?"

As time passed, the twelve disciples, wary but eager, walked out to confront the Sentinels.

They included ten men and two women, ranging from young teenagers to elderly men.

"Are they Messiah's twelve disciples?"

At this time, Raven and others from the Brotherhood of Mutants also arrived.

Raven stood at a distance, cautiously watching the Sentinels.

She found it strange. It was understandable if the disciples hesitated, but why weren't the Sentinels making a move?

While they were confused, the reason was clear to Alessandro, who was secretly controlling the Sentinels, and Dr. Bolivar. They needed all forces to arrive before defeating the disciples and Messiah publicly, demonstrating the consequences of opposing their government.

As time passed, more forces arrived, and even drones began live-streaming the scene.

With millions of viewers watching, three factions emerged: the disciples led by Messiah, the Sentinels representing the official forces, and the X-Men and other forces.

Even Iron Man Tony Stark arrived, frowning at the scene.

When everyone had almost gathered, a hidden speaker on the shoulder of a Sentinel robot buzzed.

"Laughable disciples, bring out your Messiah, or you won't have a chance later."

Alessandro's mocking voice came through the speaker.

Hearing this, Ayana, the Crystal Man, sneered, "Just these robots, and you think they deserve Messiah-sama's attention?"

"I alone can deal with this trash!"

With that, he acted immediately.

Under millions of gazes, the ten Sentinels were instantly covered in crystal layers. Within seconds, they were frozen in crystal!

Seeing this, the onlookers from various forces were stunned.

The Sentinels were dealt with just like that?

Ayana looked proud, secretly relieved, and said, "Sentinel robots?"

"They're nothing…"

Just as he was about to continue, the disciples smiled, but then their faces changed.

The Sentinels, frozen in crystal, began to glow red, turning into a magma-like form. In an instant, the crystals melted into liquid.

Ayana's face changed drastically, and the other disciples were equally shocked.

"Ayana failed?"

"These are Sentinel robots?"

"They're tough to deal with?"

Whether it was the disciples or the Hydra forces, everyone was shocked.

Several times, the Sentinels had been easily dealt with by Messiah, making them seem weak. But now, they realized they were underestimated. Was it that Messiah was too strong, making the Sentinels seem weak?

Flying in the distance, Tony was also surprised, more impressed by the child's power.

Agent Coulson's words seemed more credible. The child's power was indeed terrifying.

As they thought it was over, the Sentinels displayed an even more horrifying scene.

"Ah…" Ayana tried to use his powers, covering the Sentinels in layers of crystal, trying to freeze them again.

But before he could succeed, something strange happened to him, catching everyone's attention.

"What happened to Ayana?"

"Is this a manifestation of his powers?"

A familiar crystal layer appeared on Ayana.

Thinking it was a manifestation of his powers, Ayana's terrified shout interrupted their thoughts.

"Crystal?"

"How is this possible? I didn't activate my powers on myself!"

"Heidi, help…"

Ayana reached out, trying to ask for help, but before he could finish, he was completely encased in crystal, his terrified and confused expression visible inside.

"This is…"

Everyone, including Logan and the onlookers, realized something was wrong.

The crystal on Ayana wasn't a manifestation of his powers. It was…

"The Sentinels?"

Eyes widened in shock, looking at the Sentinels.

Gasps erupted.

"My god, they can copy mutant abilities. Did they copy Ayana's power?"

"I heard Sentinels had flaws and couldn't copy abilities. What's going on?"

"Have they been upgraded?"

Cyclops Scott and the others felt a deep fear.

Watching the live stream, Professor Charles Xavier and Magneto were equally alarmed. If the Sentinels could freely copy abilities, what future did mutants have?

Even Professor X worried about the future of mutants.

While mutants worried, millions of viewers were thrilled.

"My god, copying abilities. That mutant Messiah is nothing against these Sentinels!"

"So strong!"

"Defeat those damn mutants…"

"Kill Messiah, avenge the city's people, haha…"

Their initial doubts turned to belief that the Sentinels could defeat Messiah.

The next scene confirmed their thoughts.

Seeing Ayana frozen, Heidi and others couldn't sit still and attacked.

A tall, white-haired old man roared, turning his body into a grey stone form. He charged at the Sentinels, leaving grey footprints that turned to stone.

As he touched a Sentinel, it began to petrify, but it stopped quickly.

The Sentinel transformed to match him, copying his ability. The Sentinel's right hand turned sharp and stabbed at him.

"Ah…"

The old man screamed as his abdomen was pierced and then thrown to the ground like trash.

This scene repeated with other disciples facing similar situations. Whether invisibility, energy lasers, or other abilities, each Sentinel could replicate them.

In a short time, more than half of the disciples were down, writhing in pain.

A blue-haired girl, nicknamed Healer, frantically tried to heal members but couldn't keep up with the injuries. Eventually, a Sentinel grabbed her neck and lifted her.

"Ah…" she screamed.

"Healer…"

Heidi and others shouted anxiously.

The Sentinel didn't rush to kill, and Alessandro's voice came through the speaker.

"Where is your Messiah? Why hasn't he come out yet?"
