Chapter 208 Shadow King
As for the situation these two groups have fallen to today, Zhang Yi would never believe it if there was no trace of the Red Skull among them.
Although Magneto, who was a mutant back then, was also a member of the League of Villains, his dream was to create a powerful territory unique to mutants, where mutants could live a plain and happy life.
But an idea is an idea after all. Whether it’s mutants or Inhumans, the existence of these extraordinary beings is a threat to other villains. What’s more, everyone in this group has powerful superpowers. If there are a few more Destroyers, With the existence of Destruction, the Red Skull would probably have nightmares every night.
There is no room for others to sleep soundly in this bed, not to mention that the Red Skull himself is a very controlling being. He will never allow the mutant race to develop and grow.
Maybe the new generation of mutants are not very strong, or they may become members of Hydra, but Red Skull is unwilling to bet on this chance. As long as there is a one in ten thousand chance of a superhero among them, then It is also a big challenge for Red Skull's rule.
Therefore, Zhang Yi suspected that Red Skull secretly conducted experiments to eliminate or kill mutant genes.
In the era when Hydra controlled the world, it was not easy to irradiate crops with genetic modifications. It was understandable that people's long-term consumption of these foods would eventually lead to the decline of the mutant population.
As for Magneto, do his thoughts really matter at this point?
Magneto is already old. Even if he has the ability to make the world collapse, how much strength can he exert at his old age?
Perhaps, if Magneto saw the mutants in such a state, he might also regret that he cooperated with the Red Skull and killed his daughter with his own hands.
But these things have no meaning now. The fact has become a foregone conclusion. This is something that cannot be changed. What Zhang Yi has to do now is just to remember the deceased here and then find the goal of his trip.
All the way to the basement, all the X-Men's high-tech products had been evacuated. Not only that, even their alloy doors had been dismantled and taken away. I don't know who was in charge of this place back then. There was nothing left.
However, this allowed Zhang Yi to enter here very well without any obstacles.
Walking slowly in the passage, Zhang Yi could clearly feel some complex soul energy hidden in it. In addition, there was also a lot of spiritual power hiding around Zhang Yi, which seemed to be While spying on Zhang Yi's whereabouts, he might forcefully attack Zhang Yi's mind at any time.
In response, Zhang Yi couldn't help lowering the brim of his hat, while his eyes kept circling in the darkness.
"There have been no outsiders here for a long time."
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind Zhang Yi. It was the voice of a young girl.
Hearing this voice, Zhang Yi's expression suddenly paused, and then his face turned a little gloomy. He stopped slightly and turned to look at the source of the voice.
In the field of vision, a young and beautiful girl was standing tall and graceful, with a warm smile on her face.
But what was horrifying was that there was a huge hole in her abdomen. The red substance inside was dripping down her pants and dripping to the ground. A piece of metal could still be vaguely seen in her intestines.
Zhang Ye knew her, or in other words, this person left a deep impression on Zhang Ye.
But on the surface, Zhang Yi still maintained his calm expression.
"I'm still wondering when you are going to come out to see me."
Yes, this is the goal of Zhang Yi's trip.
The fact that Baron Mordo enslaved Agatha, the spiritual magic master, sounded the alarm for Zhang Yi. Baron Mordo, who has mastered the Dark Book, may be more powerful than Zhang Yi expected.
Therefore, before going to deal with Baron Mordo's robbery of the Dark God Book, Zhang Yi chose to give himself an extra layer of buff.
So he decided to drop by the X-Men's base and place his primary hunting target on the Shadow King hiding here.
The Shadow King, referred to as the 'Shadow King', is Professor X's first enemy, and he is also a powerful being with powerful telepathic powers like Professor X.
Although most of the time the Shadow King is possessed by a mutant named Amal Farouk, the Shadow King is actually a powerful energy being.
The Shadow King was born in the abstract world of the star realm. He is a dark product of the consciousness of intelligent creatures. He was born from the first nightmare, feeds on the shadows on the souls of various intelligent creatures, and constantly seizes and replaces hosts. flesh.
Generally speaking, this is an abstract product with slightly lower spiritual energy than Professor X, and also uses some soul energy and necromancy magic.
At this time, he was sealed in the brainwave amplifier in the X-Men base.
"You don't seem to be surprised by my appearance?" the woman chuckled.
"I'm here just for you this time, so of course I'm not surprised."
Looking at the phantom cat Kitty who was almost the same as in his memory, Zhang Yi clenched his back molars quietly. What he didn't understand was why the other party could still read him even though he was fully prepared. heart.
Zhang Yi did not throw away the helmet he brought from the ruined universe. This metal helmet that can isolate mental power is an extremely rare treasure.
In order to make it look less ostentatious, Zhang Yi had already turned it into a black top hat and kept wearing it on his head. This way he could prevent someone from secretly invading his brain, and at the same time, it could interact with him. Pair it with a windbreaker.
But what Zhang Yi was a little curious about was why the Shadow King was still able to transform into the phantom cat Kitty in his memory even though he was always wearing a hat. Could it be that the opponent was already strong enough to ignore this kind of metal.
"It seems you know me very well, so why don't you take off your disguise and talk to me face to face? Wizard." Katie blinked and took two steps forward.
Take off the disguise?
Zhang Yi's eyes moved.
Now he knows that the hat has worked, and the Shadow King obviously doesn't know that the hat can isolate his spiritual power. At this time, the Shadow King should regard himself as a dark wizard with equally powerful spiritual power.
Therefore, this may also explain the scene in front of him. Whether it is Zhang Yi himself or the Shadow King opposite, the two parties may seem to be communicating face to face, but in fact, both parties are separated by the curtain of the spiritual dimension. .
In other words, both of them have become each other's 'mirrors'. From Zhang Ye's perspective, the Shadow King's spiritual energy did not intentionally become Katie's, but Zhang Ye saw Katie, so it was It's what Katie looks like.
In the same way, after being isolated from spiritual energy by magic energy and a hat, Zhang Yi may very well have become someone else, an existence in other forms, from the Shadow King's 'perspective'.
