Chapter 1246 Undercurrents are surging, everyone has their own agendas

After waking up, Hawke immediately headed towards Kansas City.

What he needs to know most at the moment is how much time has passed since his death and resurrection.

After grabbing a Kansas spectator and simply asking, he got good news, and bad news.

The good news is that the trial is not over, it is still ongoing.

But the bad news is that seven days have passed since his death and resurrection, and he is already a long way behind the rest of the group. The others are rushing to the fifth stage, but he is still in the fourth stage.

There is currently no news about Quicksilver, as if he has mysteriously disappeared.

At the top of the ranking is Phoenix Apostle Cyclops, second is Iron Man, third is Namor, fourth is Thor, and Kingpin and Bullseye are still ranked outside of about a hundred.

This means that there is a high possibility that he can catch up with those two bastards!

After making up his mind, Hawke suppressed his anger and set off again from Kansas City towards the fifth stage.

"No one can escape from the wolf."

Hawke slowly lowered his body, kissed the soil with his nose, and carefully smelled the hundreds of smells in it.

Since merging with the heart of the saint's body, his abilities have been improved in all aspects, and he can accurately distinguish the smell he wants to track among thousands of mixed smells.

Soon, he smelled two familiar smells.

"I found you..."

Hawke slowly raised his head and raised his lips in a ferocious arc.

Then, his body swelled and became larger, his hair gradually became thicker and as black as steel needles, his back bulged into a high arc, his limbs became thicker, and his nails were like sharp knives, cutting traces on the ground.

"Ouch——!"

Hawke, who was completely transformed into a werewolf, looked up to the sky and let out a roar.

The next moment, his limbs suddenly grabbed the ground hard, erupting with astonishing force, kicking up billows of dust from the ground. Like a huge beast, he suddenly jumped out for tens of feet, and disappeared into the mountains with a few kicks and bounces.

...

...

...

At this time, in the middle of the fifth stage.

The leading Phoenix Apostle Cyclops was sitting on a raised rock on the grassland.

At his feet, there was a mummified, almost completely shriveled human spine, a pair of human legs, and a pair of human eyeballs.

It is the "spine", "feet" and "eyes" parts of the saint's body.

Somewhat surprisingly, though, Cyclops didn't choose to fuse them.

Even judging from his attitude, he seemed to be a little disgusted, even disgusted.

Cyclops sat on the rock, supporting his cheek with his right hand, staring in a certain direction boredly, and playing with the core of an electronic component with his left hand. Judging from the broken lines, it was undoubtedly torn off by him.

A moment later, a figure appeared on the grassland. His iconic red cloak and robe revealed his identity.

"As promised, you are twenty-five minutes late."

With a hint of anger on his face, Cyclops threw away the electronic components and stood up, saying, "According to our deal, I got the parts of the body. Now it's your turn to hand over Hope."

Doctor Strange glanced at the electronic components on the ground and frowned: "Did you kill Tony Stark?"

That electronic component was the core reactor of Iron Man. It was a technological product worth billions of dollars outside, but now it was casually discarded on the ground like garbage.

"Don't worry, I didn't kill him."

Cyclops said coldly: "I brought the body you asked for. Where is Hope?"

"These...are not enough."

Doctor Strange shook his head, with a hint of sarcasm on his face: "The eyes and legs were originally found by Stark, but you just kidnapped them midway. The only thing that belongs to you is the 'spine', so according to the agreement, you are still missing Two parts.”

"Are you kidding me?!"

Cyclops had a scowl on his face, phoenix flames burning all over his body, and he had a strong tendency to take action without even saying a word.

"It was obviously you who tricked me first, wasn't it? Scott."

Doctor Strange didn't panic at all. He tilted his head and raised a hint of mockery on his lips, and asked, "Do you think it's reasonable to steal our things and give them back to us again?"

Cyclops was speechless by his question and could only stare at him with a pair of angry eyes.

If Hope hadn't still been in the opponent's hands, he would have blasted this guy's head with a laser.

"Forget it, you and I should each take a step back."

Doctor Strange said expressionlessly: "You only need to collect one more body, and our deal will be concluded. Then I will return Hope to you, and I will also tell you how to control and strengthen the Phoenix Force. How about it?" "

"Can."

Cyclops knew that there would be no good results if the stalemate continued, so he nodded in agreement.

"However, I have a request."

Doctor Strange raised his finger and said, "The remains I want you to collect this time must be the 'parts' I designated."

"The designated part?" Cyclops frowned and said, "I can collect it for you, but the premise is that you have to tell me where it is."

"I don't know." Doctor Strange shook his head and said: "I only know that the body parts this time are on a certain 'trialer'. The specific location is not clear. You need to find it yourself."

"Has it been integrated..."

Cyclops felt a bit tricky: "If so, it would be very difficult to find."

"It's a little difficult." Doctor Strange smiled slightly and said: "I can provide you with an idea. The tester who fuses that part will show some special ability. As long as you pay attention, it will not be difficult to find. "

"No problem, I promise you." Cyclops said, "What part is it?"

"heart!"

Doctor Strange said solemnly: "What I want you to collect is the "heart" of the corpse! "

"Okay, I remember."

Cyclops turned and left, turned around halfway, and said coldly: "This is the last time, I hope you won't break your promise, otherwise...even if I lose Hope, I will kill you. "

As soon as he finished speaking, the terrifying Phoenix Power exploded.

In an instant, the entire grassland was filled with wind and clouds, flames dyed half of the sky red, and surging power filled the air, creating an extremely terrifying sense of oppression. Even Doctor Strange couldn't help but change his expression.

From his perspective, it looked like a phoenix in flames, staring at him coldly.

The blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling, as if it had been evaporated by the flames. The terrifying pressure caused Doctor Strange's skin to crack, and bright red blood overflowed from his mouth and nose, causing him to stumble back dozens of steps.

Fortunately, the vision only appeared for a moment.

After the threat passed, Cyclops left and disappeared into the grassland.

Doctor Strange raised his hand to wipe the blood from his nose, looked up and stared in the direction where Cyclops left, with a sneer on his lips: "I'll let you be arrogant for a while. After merging two Phoenix powers, soon... ....Someone will deal with you."
