Reincarnation Paradise: The Crucible.

Chapter 386 Phoenix
"Yes, the target was shot down. She is so brave to float at low altitude and act as a target on the battlefield!"

"It's not surprising. People who come out of the academy are always more naive. Professor X protects them too well."

"Quick! Keep focusing your fire. If you're lucky enough, you can kill Storm and get at least a dark purple treasure chest."

"Keep going, Alpha-level mutants are not that easy to deal with. We can't kill her in a short time. Storm will be dealt with by other high-level NPCs after she lands. Let's focus on suppressing Wolverine and Colossus first. These two are about to break through the battle formation."

"Damn, where's Tank? Go and stop these two guys! Wolverine is almost rushing to the support team area!"

…………

All over the battlefield, chaotic discussions and commands continued to be heard from the scattered groups of contractors.

With the addition of more than a dozen X-Men, the momentum of the entire battlefield was quickly pushed to a climax.

Humans and mutants, the Brotherhood and the X-Men, the contractors and plot characters, and even the contractors themselves are all gradually transformed into a pot of boiling soup with blood splattered in the chaotic entanglement.

But no matter how the situation changes, the top mutants who are the high-end combat forces on the battlefield are always the center of the vortex. Whether it is the powerful force that can influence the situation of the battle, or the considerable rewards that can be obtained after killing, they are constantly attracting the attention of all beings in the field.

After working together to shoot down Storm, the most high-profile person in the sky, the human side's devastating counterattack was finally temporarily interrupted.

In addition to Storm who fell on the battlefield, other X-Men members including Logan, Colossus, Iceman, Nightcrawler, etc. were also targeted to varying degrees.

Among them, the most massive team is the one that encircles Wolverine Logan. After all, among all the X-Men, he is the one who performs the best on the battlefield, and he is also the most murderous.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Logan is given enough time, he alone is enough to kill everyone in the Brotherhood except Magneto and Jean.

Faced with a guy whose claws are deadly and whose body is basically indestructible, if he is not restrained in time, the damage he can cause will definitely be far beyond imagination. At the very least, the blow to morale can be said to be fatal.

Therefore, the number of contractors surrounding Logan was the highest in the entire venue, and the bloodiness was also the highest among all.

At the top of the broken bridge at the edge of the battlefield, the Golden Gate Bridge, which was filled with many Brotherhood leaders not long ago, now only Qin was left alone.

The rest of the members had joined the battlefield as soon as the X-Men appeared. Some of them took advantage of the cover of the war to quickly advance to the Worthington Laboratory behind the battlefield to look for targets, while others joined the encirclement and suppression of the X-Men.

As for Qin, the bloody battlefield in front of her made her gradually excited, but another consciousness in her brain made her stay stiff in place, and she could only watch coldly the brutal killing that continued in front of her.

After looking around the battlefield, Jean's gaze finally stopped on Wolverine Logan, who was being surrounded and killed by everyone.

As his silver claws swung, limbs flew everywhere and waves of blood flowed. Within just a few minutes, at least a dozen people who were blocking his way were torn into pieces by him.

The black and yellow uniform of the war police had been completely dyed a dark red after the blood dried, and it was covered with various wounds of various sizes. During the whole siege, many guys died under Logan's claws, and he himself was also seriously injured. The metal skull was exposed at least ten times, his eyeballs were gouged out and shattered seven times, and his heart was taken out of his chest three times...

Apart from these serious injuries that were fatal, the rest of the injuries were countless. There was not much else, but the flesh and blood cut from his body could be piled together to reassemble two or three brand new Logans.

The despairing thing is that no matter how serious his injuries are, his missing flesh and organs will grow back and heal in just a breath.

Therefore, the fierce battle lasted for a long time. Even though the surroundings were littered with corpses and blood, Logan, who was surrounded in the center, was still strong and had a tendency to become more and more courageous as the battle went on. This perfectly illustrates what it means that a mere fatal injury has no effect on the battle.

In fact, as long as Logan's adamantium skeleton is not destroyed, his extreme self-healing ability can ensure that he can fight until his physical strength is exhausted. Conventional control skills will not play much of a role in the face of his strong will tempered by nearly two hundred years of fighting career.

The sticky smell of blood rushed into her nose, stimulating Qin, who was watching the battle on the top of the broken bridge, to begin to experience all kinds of strange phenomena. The air around her became distorted and squirming, and a faint blood color slowly spread in her eyes. It seemed that in the next second, the violent phoenix power in her body would break through the shackles of reason and come to the world, announcing its existence to the whole world.

But every time it was about to explode, a strong wave of emotions would emerge from the depths of the soul, and forcibly calm the increasingly violent power of the Phoenix.

But this can only delay it temporarily. Every time the tide recedes, it accumulates more powerful force for the next outbreak.

Staring at the strong figure covered in blood in the center of her vision, Qin's eyes flickered, and her moist tongue couldn't help but stick out and lick her slightly dry scarlet lips. As the two consciousnesses merged in her mind, the suppressed emotions in her heart about Logan began to become more and more intense.

Phoenix, who advocates absolute freedom, undoubtedly loves wild and unruly Logan more than the relatively restrained and indifferent Scott, and this also means that the part of Qin's consciousness is being gradually swallowed up by another personality. Suddenly, a loud roar in the distance caught Qin's eyes on Logan's fight. She looked up and saw that the outer wall of the Worthington Laboratory at the end of the battlefield suddenly exploded with smoke and dust, and a somewhat unfamiliar silver figure jumped down from the torn smoke and dust.

...............

On the other side, You Lin's combat boots stained with blood fell to the ground. After breaking down several high walls one after another, Xu Yue finally opened up the shortest route inside the laboratory, directly leading to the battlefield outside.

Suck~
A long breathing sound was heard. The familiar battlefield atmosphere made Xu Yue take a deep breath unconsciously. The thick smell of gunpowder and blood mixed with the boiling and surging shouts of killing around him poured into his ears and nose at the same time, making his pupils, which were already tending to blood color, begin to become more and more intense, so sticky that it seemed as if they were really going to drip tears of blood.

The long spear in his hand seemed to sense the rising evil spirit all around him, and it began to whistle.

After taking a quick glance at the situation in front of him, just as he was about to leap out to rush to the bloodiest front of the battlefield, Xu Yue's movements suddenly paused. He felt an extremely dangerous gaze directed at him.

The mere attention caused the beast instinct in his body to send out a crazy warning. His blood-red pupils shrank slightly, and the corners of his mouth quietly curled up. Then he raised his eyes and looked in the direction of his gaze.

As expected, the person spying on him was Qin, or Phoenix.

Under the dim light, a graceful figure in dark red clothes was standing on the top of the broken bridge. Under her flowing red hair were a pair of eyes that were a mixture of passion and indifference. When their eyes met, Xu Yue seemed to see a terrifying fire phoenix that could reach the sky and the earth slowly spreading its wings behind this graceful figure.

Wherever the wings swept, the elements retreated, all things were annihilated, and even the burning fire in his dantian began to stir wildly, and waves of fanatical and longing emotions rose in his mind.

I don't know how much time had passed. When Xu Yue came to his senses again, Qin opposite him had already withdrawn his gaze, but he still stayed where he was without moving at all.

"This is the Phoenix..."

Muttering to himself, Xu Yue quickly lowered his eyes to hide his greed which he could not restrain for the moment. At this moment, a group photo suddenly flew by not far to his right and fell heavily to the ground, creating a large cloud of dust.

Soon the smoke and dust dissipated, revealing a disheveled white-haired figure inside.

"Ororo?!"

In the pit on the ground was a tattered black cloak spread out flat, and on the cloak lay Storm, covered in blood. Under the torn hole in her uniform that was obviously torn by a sharp weapon was smooth wheat-colored skin, and irregular wounds on her skin that were constantly opening and closing like a child's lips.

And with each rise and fall of breathing, a large amount of blood would be pumped out of the wound, and there would be no signs of healing for a long time.

Storm is not like Logan. Although she is very capable in manipulating wind and thunder, her relatively weak body is her biggest weakness. Her previous high-profile appearance that towered over everyone on the battlefield caused her to suffer a small loss. After landing on the surface, she was greeted by the combined siege of many powerful men.

The fact that she had been able to hold on until now was a testament to her great strength. However, as she was now feeling increasingly weak from the excessive blood loss, she was feeling more and more powerless and was showing signs of failing in battle.

Hearing Xu Yue's call, Storm hurriedly struggled to get up from the ground, her slightly pale lips moved, and she spoke:

"Did everything go smoothly in the lab?"

"Well, but...it seems like you're having some trouble over here."

A strong wind whistled in front of Xu Yue, and a female mutant with the same Shamatte hairstyle as Arc Light and others suddenly emerged in the strong wind, with a long afterimage left in the air behind her after moving at high speed.

The Night Walker stopped and first looked at the Worthington Laboratory with cracks all over its surface and the huge hole on the outer wall. Finally, she turned her gaze to Xu Yue who was standing in front of her with a spear in his hand.

Through her mutant ability to detect talents, she could sense that the man in front of her was quite dangerous, but Arclight and others who had entered the laboratory before were very important to her, so she couldn't just ignore them.

A trace of fear flashed in her eyes, and she frowned and said:

"You came out of the lab? Did you meet any members of our fraternity on the way?"
