Chapter 56 - First appearance in public

Three days passed quickly!

During these three days, Hank, Professor, and Logan tried to find a trace of Mystique on the busy streets.

They even used a broadcast to call out Raven's name.

Only Magneto, because he had a wanted warrant on him, dared not appear openly to attract attention.

In the shadows where Professor X and the others couldn't see, Mystique had already transformed into the appearance of the Military representative from Vietnam who came to attend the conference.

Shen Mu knew the future direction, but he was not going to tell them.

Raven heard and saw Professor and Hank, but she chose not to appear and acknowledge them.

Because she knew that she and Charles had embarked on two completely different paths.

On the day the conference officially began.

According to the plan, Professor X and his disguised team successfully entered the venue as reporters.

Shen Mu, however, did not go with them at all, and Logan originally had something to say about this.

However, time did not allow him to think too much.

The conference began, but they searched the entire venue and Bolivar was nowhere to be seen.

Instead, there was another meeting after the peace conference, but reporters were not allowed to approach the meeting room.

There was no other way; in order not to cause more serious consequences in front of so many national representatives from all over the World, they could only quietly get closer.

They used Logan's hearing to eavesdrop on the content of the meeting.

And the protagonist of this meeting was Bolivar.

Three days ago, he suddenly received a call from the Secretary of State, saying that he had agreed to his plan for the "Sentinel Robot."

This made Bolivar surprised and also a little confused.

"What made you change your decision?"

Bolivar was very curious as to why the Secretary of State, who had previously firmly rejected his plan, had undergone such a big change.

"The Mutant criminal suspected of assassinating the former President, codenamed Magneto, has escaped from prison!"

The Secretary of State on the other end of the phone only said this one sentence.

Instantly, Bolivar knew the seriousness of the matter!

Their ability to capture Magneto back then involved an absolute element of luck.

After one time, Magneto would definitely be more careful and cautious; the next time they wanted to catch him, the price they would have to pay would not be comparable to the last time.

What shocked him even more was how they would resist if Magneto planned to retaliate; in this era full of metal, there were dangers everywhere.

As Bolivar, who understood his abilities, he naturally knew how terrifying his power would be in the modern steel jungle if he lost control.

"Your Excellency Lei, I don't understand, under such strict surveillance, why was he still able to escape from prison?"

"I should have given you all the information about his abilities and what to pay attention to when guarding him, completely and thoroughly, right!"

Bolivar truly felt at this moment that this group of people was utterly useless; they couldn't even keep an eye on a criminal.

"Bolivar, things are not that simple; we have carefully checked everything inside the prison, and there are no traces left; that guy just disappeared out of thin air!"

"Excluding other possibilities, we suspect that perhaps a Mutant with unknown and even more bizarre abilities has appeared, just like the red, demon-like guy we captured initially, who could teleport with people, and now perhaps an even more terrifying guy has appeared."

As an ordinary person, facing a Mutant who can appear silently anywhere at any time, this feeling is no less than a Sword of Damocles hanging over one's head, ready to fall at any moment.

"Moreover, they took Magneto away, which indicates that Magneto must be an important accomplice of theirs. If Magneto wants to retaliate…"

The Secretary of State did not finish his sentence; he believed Bolivar knew what he wanted to express.

They were afraid of being held accountable later, after all, few people are not afraid of death.

Bolivar's heart was filled with mixed feelings at this time; he was happy because his "Sentinel" plan could finally be realized, and worried about the threat posed by Magneto and the newly appeared unknown Mutant.

After hanging up the phone, Bolivar felt that the content of his report should change; the original plan was still not alarming enough!

So he immediately revised his original report, once again raising Magneto's threat level and adding conjectures about the unknown Mutant.

He even increased the number of Sentinel prototypes from eight to sixteen, and also considered restricting certain Mutants with special abilities.

"If my Sentinel Robots could change into different forms according to different types of Mutants, that would be great!"

"However, all of this requires more Mutant genes and the most core bond."

While revising his report, Bolivar also began to think more about the subsequent upgrades and iterations of the Sentinel he designed.

At this time, in the small meeting room, all those participating in this special meeting were representatives from various countries.

Bolivar did not waste any words; he immediately threw out his theory of extinction to first subdue these people.

"Gentlemen, the end of one war is the beginning of another; the upcoming war will be more brutal and difficult, because you will be facing a group of monsters with superpowers."

"The person in this picture is named Magneto; according to our research, he possesses the ability to manipulate metal, and currently almost all of our weapons contain metal. Unfortunately, three days ago, this dangerous Mutant escaped from the most secure prison in the World."

Bolivar then recounted what happened during the Cuban Missile Crisis ten years ago, which had already been sealed away.

Immediately, the faces of the representatives from various countries showed expressions of horror.

Seeing his information take effect, Bolivar then began to introduce his weapon for tracking and hunting Mutants, the "Sentinel Robot."

Magneto, outside the door, saw the design drafts of the Sentinel Robot through a small trick, and a terrifying killing intent arose in his heart towards Bolivar.

Raven, sitting in the room at this moment, felt the killing intent in her heart growing stronger and stronger!

But the next moment, the gene detection instrument in Bolivar's hand suddenly sounded an alarm, and the source pointed directly at her.

"Who exactly are you?"

Bolivar asked her this question.

"I don't know what you're talking about?"

Mystique said as she slowly stood up.

The surrounding security personnel immediately stepped forward to subdue her, but they were knocked down in a few moves, and her body reverted to its blue-skinned original form.

The others were about to raise their guns and shoot at her, but Bolivar stopped them!

"Don't kill her, I need a living experimental sample."

At this moment, the look in his eyes as he gazed at Mystique burst with a different kind of fervor.

However, the momentary hesitation of the security guard gave Raven an opportunity to counterattack, and she successfully snatched a gun.

Just as she was about to fire, the meeting room door was suddenly crashed open by Magneto and his group, and everyone inside momentarily had their attention diverted for about a second!

Yet before they could react, they suddenly felt the light from above brighten.

The next moment, the entire ceiling of the meeting room was torn open by an invisible force, and Shen Mu, who had reverted to his original form, appeared in everyone's line of sight.

"Hi! Good morning, everyone!"

Shen Mu's ferocious appearance and his gaze, as if looking at food on a plate, scared everyone except Logan and a few others, causing them to collapse to the ground.

The slightly stronger security personnel also had trembling legs, and their gun-wielding hands couldn't stop shaking; the oppressive feeling from a superior being was simply too strong!

Only Bolivar, the moment he saw Shen Mu, his small eyes behind his glasses widened like light bulbs.

Then, Shen Mu, with a thought, directly used telekinesis to grab Professor X and the others, along with Mystique.

"See you again!"

After Shen Mu amicably bid them farewell, he threw out a portal and left!
