"Damn it, no wonder you've been hiding all this time. You were researching such a malicious magic!"
Fang Yuan continuously fired energy at Fox to interfere, but a purple magic shield appeared around Fox's body, making all attacks ineffective against him.
"It's useless! Once Dark Magic is used, it cannot be stopped. It will spread to all humans in the World, and all the infected will only die in agony!" Fox shouted out the setting, terrifying the audience.
Because at this moment, the black mist released by Fox was already spreading toward the portal!
Storm quickly summoned a gale to stop the black mist's movement, but after the wind blew through these magical gases, instead of dispersing, they rapidly expanded in area, forcing Ororo to stop immediately.
At this moment, Magneto also took action.
As a representative of the older generation of powerful figures, Old Professor X could slack off and Shaw could rot, but Old Magneto had to step up to hold the fort.
He quickly controlled a large amount of metal to form a hundred-meter-long barrier, attempting to block the black mist's advance.
To everyone's astonishment, when the black mist moved to the barrier's position, it was as if it touched nothing and passed right through!
How could they know that Fang Yuan had added the energy of the Space Stone to this black mist, causing it to exist in a different dimension as it spread, not even on the same plane as reality?
The Dark Magic in the book of cagliostro was entirely self-taught by Fang Yuan.
But he found that his talent for Dark Magic far exceeded his learning of other magics; the value of [Dark Affinity] was still rising.
However, credit was also due to the Ancient One. If she hadn't constantly urged Fang Yuan to solidify his foundation in magic theory, he wouldn't have progressed so quickly in his self-study.
"What the hell!" Old Magneto cursed under his breath, then shot a glare toward the sky.
Rogue, beside him, thought he was glaring at Fox, but Shaw understood that Old Magneto was expressing dissatisfaction with Fang Yuan.
Making the man of the hour lose face—such an excessive thing... give me more.
Shaw casually caught a punch swung by a Sentinel, then without even looking, he gave a light tap with his finger, and the Sentinel immediately flew backward.
He watched Fang Yuan's performance with intoxication. Ever since being defeated by Fang Yuan's manipulation of the human heart, Shaw had become very interested in this art of ruling hearts. Thus, while watching Fang Yuan's performance, he was the only one with a learning attitude.
No wonder Good Big Brother could become a villain who almost destroyed the World; with this level of learning enthusiasm, he could easily crush a whole line of hot-blooded protagonists.
By now, the black mist's coverage was very wide. All the soldiers on the battlefield were enveloped by the black mist, and they all began to show various abnormal symptoms.
Only the Mutants on the scene could still act normally. As the saying goes, Fang Yuan wouldn't let the main characters go offline so easily.
But at the same time, they also had to face the attacks of hundreds of Sentinels.
Perhaps in the Sentinels' judgment, the human soldiers were no longer a threat, so they all turned and charged toward the nearest Mutants.
"Before I came, Fang didn't say there would be such an exciting scene," Old Magneto complained.
Complaints aside, Old Eric's movements weren't slow. He raised both hands, and the armored vehicles and tanks on the scene floated up one after another, all crashing into the Sentinels.
These lethal weapons of modern warfare were nothing more than a pile of scrap metal in Old Magneto's eyes.
"Why are you looking at me? There's no one inside anyway, and they won't be needing them anymore." Old Magneto noticed Rogue staring at him and reminded her, "And why are you following me? Why aren't you fighting like the other students?"
Rogue shook her head in distress: "I can't do it. I can't even touch the Sentinels."
Before absorbing any abilities, she was just an ordinary girl. Let alone getting close to a Sentinel, she couldn't even approach the aftershocks of the battle.
Besides Magneto, the other X-Men were also resisting with all their might, but there were simply too many Sentinels. Even though Fang Yuan had gone easy in the setting, the situation remained extremely dangerous.
"In less than 24 hours, this World will become the nourishment for my power!" Fox spread his arms in the sky, his tone full of intoxication.
All the humans in front of televisions and radios became chaotic and panicked.
Although the black mist hadn't spread yet, every corner of the Earth was already surrounded by an aura of despair.
Although Fang Yuan had closed the portal in time to prevent the black mist from reaching other parts of the Earth through it, under the current circumstances, the Earth had no way to stop the mist's spread. It was only a matter of time before the Dark Magic infected all of humanity.
Just like the T-virus antidote released by Alice at the end of Resident Evil 6, though it started as just one test tube, as time passed, all the zombies on the entire Earth would be finished.
Even Old Magneto, who knew this was all fake, felt a bit of doubt in his heart.
"Looking at Fang Yuan like this, it doesn't look like he's acting at all."
In such a desperate atmosphere, Fang Yuan's voice suddenly cut through the dark clouds.
"Even if I have to pay a price, I won't let you have your way!"
Blue light erupted from his entire body, and he then constructed a space barrier around the edges of all the black mist. The previously unstoppable black mist was actually blocked.
"Hmm?" Fox was clearly surprised. "You actually possess this kind of power?"
"But it's useless. Even if you can block the Dark Magic, you have no way to cancel it. Once you can no longer hold on, I can still destroy the World!"
Fang Yuan ignored him and didn't answer, seemingly putting all his effort into restraining the black mist of the Dark Magic. The black mist was compressed layer by layer by the space barrier until it was reduced to a black orb the size of a basketball.
But at this stage, it was impossible to continue.
"Can't cancel it? Then I'll consume all its power!" Fang Yuan roared and actually sucked the black orb directly into his body!
Fox was instantly shocked. Even through the mask, everyone could sense his horror: "You actually want to use your own power to offset the Dark Magic? You could very likely die that way!"
"What a lunatic!"
When the rest of humanity heard Fox say that Fang Yuan was actually saving them at the cost of himself, they were instantly moved and pleasantly surprised, and Fang Yuan's own reputation began to grow rapidly.
Regarding magic, Fang Yuan's claim to be the Sorcerer Supreme was just talk, but in the field of farming reputation, Fang Yuan dared to beat his chest and say he was at the Supreme level.
His face turned visibly pale, and correspondingly, all the black mist was absorbed by him. The soldiers on the battlefield returned to normal, directly resolving a major crisis for humanity.
It also sent his reputation soaring to 100.
All of humanity was filled with gratitude toward Fang Yuan, and the chaos that had just begun in various places immediately calmed down.
It seems... we can win!
"Finally finished," Fang Yuan said, panting.
Fox cursed in exasperation and then made a spellcasting gesture again.
"You could solve it the first time, but I don't believe you can do it a second time!"
Seeing Fox about to release that terrifying magic again, the people who had just begun to relax felt their hearts leap into their throats once more.
An ultimate move could actually be cast repeatedly? This villain really doesn't play by the rules.
Normally, shouldn't he have been defeated?
Fang Yuan had already saved the Earth once, but he was clearly at his limit now. Just as Fox thought, others didn't believe Fang Yuan had the strength to recreate the miracle from just now.
But since Fang Yuan had arranged the plot this way, he naturally had a deeper meaning.
"Rogue!"
He shouted loudly, and the audience in front of their televisions and radios naturally heard him.
Is this a joke?
She can't even beat a Sentinel; how can she solve a Dark Magic that can destroy the World?
"Mary, go!" Old Magneto suddenly encouraged.
He also thoughtfully prepared a seat for Rogue, which had been dismantled from a fighter jet.
Although Old Magneto didn't know what Fang Yuan wanted to do, he understood that this was Fang Yuan's script and certainly wouldn't harm Rogue.
Hearing Old Magneto's encouragement, Rogue took two deep breaths and then resolutely sat down.
In any case, Rogue believed Fang Yuan wouldn't hurt her.
Only then did the public realize that the person Fang Yuan called for was actually a young Mutant girl.
Looking at her innocent face, she didn't look like someone who could save the World at all.
Magneto controlled Rogue's seat to fly quickly toward Fang Yuan. The Sentinels along the way were very sensible; not a single one came to block them.
Upon arriving, Rogue quickly ran to Fang Yuan's side, and only then did Fang Yuan reveal his plan.
"Mary, absorb my abilities, and then go defeat Fox!"
Rogue was incredulous: "Me?"
"That's right!" Fang Yuan nodded. "Believe in yourself; your power is very strong."
Rogue shook her head in terror, a sob escaping her voice: "But you'll be in danger, you might die!"
Fang Yuan quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, I won't die. At most... I won't be able to use my abilities anymore. I'll be fine!"
He persuaded her for a while before Rogue finally agreed.
Of course, the main reason was that Fang Yuan said he wouldn't die.
Rogue took off her glove and placed her hand on Fang Yuan.
Then Rogue suddenly felt a massive surge of energy, so powerful it was beyond comparison, leaving her extremely surprised.
Of course, Fang Yuan certainly wouldn't truly gamble with his life; besides, Rogue wouldn't be able to tell the difference in energy.
"Use the magic release technique I taught you before, aim at the sky..."
Fang Yuan taught Rogue step-by-step how to use the energy, and Rogue seemed to pick it up very quickly.
It was all being controlled by Fang Yuan behind the scenes; how could it not be fast?
"Now!" Fang Yuan shouted.
Rogue mustered her strength and released all the energy. A blue laser beam erupted from her hands, striking directly against Fox's barrier.
Just like when Ultraman uses an ultimate move on a monster, Fox's barrier was shattered directly by the laser, and Fox himself sustained significant damage.
"Rogue is amazing!" the TV host quickly set the tone.
