Seeing Magneto unleash his power, Psylocke, who stood beside Apocalypse, was stunned. Although she had heard of Magneto's name, she never expected him to possess such strength.
Originally, everyone believed Magneto's ability was merely to control metal.
However, from his current performance, it seemed to be more than just simple metal control.
What inspired even greater awe in her was Apocalypse. A powerful Mutant like Magneto appeared as a tender child before Apocalypse, making her wonder how strong this ancient Mutant, who called himself a god, truly was.
Before meeting Apocalypse, her understanding of powerful Mutants was limited to the two kings and two queens of the Hellfire Club.
It was a pity that back then she wasn't qualified to join the Hellfire Club, nor did she want to.
Now, having met Apocalypse, she finally saw what true powerful Mutants were capable of.
"What did you do to me?"
After venting the suddenly awakened immense power within his body, Magneto slowly landed and asked Apocalypse.
"I merely awakened the dormant power within your body, allowing you to become your true self."
"During the time I was trapped in darkness, you, my children, could not see your true talents."
Hearing Apocalypse say this, Magneto subconsciously looked at his hands.
He felt that for so many years, he had never truly understood his own abilities.
Because at this moment, he could see many more microscopic things that he couldn't see before, such as radio waves, ultraviolet light, and even other unknown rays.
This was Magneto's shortcoming in controlling his own abilities: a lack of knowledge.
However, he couldn't be blamed for it, as he had spent more than half of his decades-long life in conflict.
He was not like his good friend Charles, who had an excellent educational environment and even three Dr. degrees from the top universities.
As for him, he had lived a life of constant upheaval; if his actual academic level were to be assessed, he might not even compare to some traditionally educated high school graduates.
Although the World now truly appeared full of colors in his eyes, he knew very little about what they represented. However, Mutant ability was his instinct, and even without understanding its principles, he could still use it.
"Very good, my Knight, now we should continue to find more of your brethren!"
"My resurrection will be accompanied by four Knights; you will have two other companions."
Saying this, Apocalypse turned to open a portal to continue searching for his next Knight.
However, Magneto clearly wasn't ready to abandon his long-prepared revenge plan just yet.
"No! I have something more important to do."
Apocalypse saw the fire of vengeance in Magneto's eyes. He knew it was directed at those lowly humans, and he liked that look very much.
At this moment, he believed Magneto might become his most loyal and outstanding Knight in clearing the World, because they both equally disdained those mortals.
"Go! But you need to be careful; there are unknown terrors hidden in this World, but I will eventually destroy them completely."
"Psylocke, you go with him. Let this World truly recognize us again!"
Apocalypse expressed support for Magneto's actions but also reminded him to be careful of the hidden presences.
After all, the black giant claw belonging to Shen Mu that appeared before him still left a deep impression.
However, at this moment, Magneto was full of confidence.
The helmet that made him immune to mind control meant he didn't have to worry about a betrayal from his old friend.
Coupled with his newly awakened abilities, he now feared nothing except for a slight wariness towards Apocalypse.
Even though he had suffered a setback, neither big nor small, at Shen Mu's hands, he believed it was merely because he wasn't prepared.
He would not make the same mistake twice.
On the other side, in front of the White House, a cordon had been set up, with over five hundred visible guards, and even more hidden in the shadows!
After all, this conference was attended by important international and U.S. figures.
"Howard, you thief?"
Howard Stark, who was invited as a representative of Stark Industries, had just stepped out of the car with his wife when he heard a familiar voice.
He looked up and saw that it was Dr. Hank Pym, the founder of Pym Technologies and his former partner.
"Dr. Pym, I reiterate, I did not take your Pym Particles. The four vials of Pym Particles you lost have nothing to do with me."
At this moment, Howard also felt a headache coming on.
Pym Particles were Hank Pym's most important discovery, yet four vials mysteriously went missing from a heavily guarded military base three years ago.
Hank Pym had only gone to retrieve a package from the transport department for no more than five minutes, and when he returned, his Pym Particles were stolen!
So, he immediately placed the primary suspicion on Howard Stark, one of the co-founders of the Strategic Scientific Reserve.
However, Howard remembered very clearly that he was talking to a visitor from MIT, Howard Potts, at that time.
He even had a deep impression of the person because he shared the same name.
But after subsequent investigations, they found that MIT had no such person.
And no so-called visitor was dispatched during that period.
Even the composite sketch generated from Howard's description yielded no results in a global data search.
Thus, Howard truly had no way to explain. Even his butler, Jarvis, had a clear memory of the person's appearance.
However, the fact was that this person left no trace of his existence.
Therefore, this incident became the catalyst for his estrangement from Hank Pym.
Since then, Pym withdrew from the Strategic Scientific Reserve and founded his own Pym Technologies.
"Hmph! Howard, I thought you would at least be a man who owned up to his actions, but it seems I overestimated you."
Hank Pym simply did not believe Howard's explanation.
Because before the Pym Particles were stolen, some people in the Scientific Reserve had subtly told him that they hoped he would hand over the Pym Particles technology, and Howard had not expressed an opinion at that time.
After that, the items were stolen. How could he not cast a suspicious eye on these old friends!
However, if Shen Mu were here, he would know what happened.
All the blame for this had to be borne by Captain America "Steve Rogers" because he had taken those vials of Pym Particles when he borrowed the Space Stone from Tony in the future, using them as a supplement for time travel.
He didn't expect that small action to coincidentally create history.
Because the originally stolen Pym Particles never reappeared or leaked out in the following decades, as if they had vanished into thin air.
