Everyone boarded the plane and fastened their safety restraints.
"We should depart!" Beast immediately started the plane, which slowly accelerated before roaring into the sky.
It was then that Li Yue realized this plane not only looked more advanced than its era, but its speed could also reach supersonic levels, a testament to Beast's intellect.
Before long, Li Yue's plane arrived at the scene of the incident.
At this moment, both American and Soviet warships had locked onto the opposing vessels.
As soon as the cargo ship in the middle crossed the embargo line, they would open fire, and war would inevitably break out...
"The cargo ship is three minutes away from crossing the embargo line, sir."
"If they cross the line, they'll have to pray for themselves; may heaven bless them! Sound the alarm, prepare for battle." The American commander issued the order.
The American warships were ready for battle; if the Soviet cargo ship did not turn back, it would be directly attacked.
At this time, the Soviet commander, who was already prepared for war, received orders from his superiors to have the cargo ship turn back and not cross the line.
However, no matter how the signalman ordered, there was no response from the cargo ship, and it continued to move forward.
"There are no living people on the cargo ship anymore; Sebastian Shaw went there and killed everyone." The Professor directly used his telepathy to ascertain the situation on the cargo ship.
"What should we do? If the cargo ship continues, it will be attacked by the American warships, and then the Soviet army will retaliate, and war will begin." The CIA female agent said with some worry.
The Professor thought for a moment, then directly used his psychic abilities to control a Soviet naval officer.
The officer's eyes suddenly became dull, and he walked directly to the control position, pushed away the soldier sitting there, and pressed the missile launch button.
After doing all this, the officer suddenly seemed to come to his senses, standing dumbfounded, not knowing what had happened...
At this moment, everyone on the plane was in danger, because the missile's trajectory was directly in the path of the plane.
If nothing went wrong, the missile would hit the plane first.
"Ah!"
Beast roared, directly controlling the plane to turn, avoiding close contact with the missile.
However, Li Yue found that this missile, which was avoided without incident in the movie, was now impossible to dodge, and it was about to collide with the plane.
At this moment, Li Yue had no time to think; he directly used his ability, taking the plane and everyone inside it to disappear from the missile's path, then reappearing in the air not far away.
"Phew! Li Yue, you're so cool!"
Everyone on the plane, having escaped the threat of death, let out a long sigh of relief.
"Li Yue, thank you for saving all of us!" The Professor expressed his gratitude to Li Yue.
"Professor, next time you do something like that, give us a heads-up!" Beast expressed his dissatisfaction with the Professor.
If it hadn't been for Li Yue just now, they would all have died.
Due to the suddenness of the incident, Magneto hadn't even reacted...
Everyone on the Soviet warship watched their own cargo ship being blown up and sunk by their missile, all dumbfounded, still not having reacted to what happened.
"Well done, you just averted a nuclear war!" The commander said to the still-confused officer.
"What?"
"Someone, take him to the brig!" The commander indicated that this blame was still to be borne by him.
"What, what happened?"
The officer was led away, looking utterly bewildered...
Red Devil, sensing danger on the cargo ship, teleported directly back into the submarine.
"It's those Soviets, they fired on their own cargo ship."
"They're here, they did it, I can feel it."
Sebastian Shaw said, then picked up and put on his special helmet.
"Are we just going to let them ruin our plan like this?"
"No, we just need to light the fuse with another 'match.' We still have the most powerful weapon in the world, and that is me.
As long as I absorb 100% of the nuclear reactor's energy, I cannot be disturbed during this time."
After Shaw finished speaking, he walked directly into a room in the submarine.
Red Devil outside opened the nuclear reactor's switch, and Shaw, with both hands on the reactor, began to absorb the energy...
On the plane, the Professor said, "Shaw must be hiding underwater, but we don't have sonar detection, so we can't find his exact location."
After hearing the Professor's words, everyone on the plane felt a bit regretful.
Magneto felt even more regretful; this feeling of knowing the enemy was not far away, yet being unable to seek revenge, was the most unbearable.
"No, we have sonar!" Banshee suddenly spoke, interrupting everyone's thoughts.
The Professor and Magneto both looked up in surprise at Banshee.
"Oh right, how could we forget him?"
The Professor and Magneto directly unbuckled their seatbelts, stood up, and took Banshee to the rear of the plane.
"Open the hatch, Beast!"
The hatch slowly opened to both sides, and the Professor did not forget to instruct Banshee.
"Your vocal cords are like a muscle; you just need to control them.
See you in a bit." The Professor pointed to his head, indicating that he would enter his mind later.
Banshee directly jumped off the plane, shouting loudly just before hitting the sea.
He needed to cushion his fall, and after gliding for a while using the Backlash force, he dived into the sea.
Once in the water, Banshee let out a loud shout, and visible ripples rapidly spread outwards, then touched the submarine and reflected back.
"Banshee has found the submarine's location, Hank, lower the plane a bit.
Erik, are you ready?"
"Let's go find him!"
The Professor, sensing the information in Banshee's mind, informed Magneto, then had Hank fly the plane closer to the sea surface.
Magneto directly grabbed the plane's landing gear with his left hand and extended his right hand towards the sea, unleashing his full power.
However, no matter how much Magneto increased his power output, he couldn't pull such a heavy submarine out of the sea.
"Erik, remember, the key is to stay somewhere between rage and serenity."
After receiving encouragement from his good friend, the Professor, Magneto's confidence soared.
His magnetic control ability went into full throttle, and the submarine in the sea rose at a visible speed until it was entirely pulled out of the water.
All the military personnel watched this scene, stunned and disbelieving that this was something a human could do.
At this moment, all humans also witnessed the terrifying power of mutants.
Li Yue was also very shocked.
As expected of the most prominent old Magneto, only on site could one truly feel the shock brought by his activated abilities.
Watching a submarine weighing thousands of tons being controlled in the air by Magneto, no one's heart could remain calm.
The hatch above the submarine opened, and Riptide poked his head out.
Seeing the plane not far away, and his submarine being held in the air by some force, he prepared to stir up trouble.
He directly spun and transformed into a hurricane, blowing towards the plane.
Under the strong hurricane, the plane could no longer maintain stable flight; one of its wings was completely torn off, and the plane, like a kite with a broken string, rushed towards the coast.
In his haste, the Professor did not forget to rescue Magneto, who was still outside the plane; they truly were a pair of good friends.
Inside the plane's cabin, everything was in chaos, with sparks flying from various wires, and Beast was doing his best to control the plane.
Li Yue didn't want to experience the feeling of a plane crash, so he directly activated his ability, teleporting the plane to a nearby beach on the sea.
Although the impact was still very strong, it was fortunately within a tolerable range.
The plane did not disintegrate; it only slid for a certain distance before stopping.
Everyone, having narrowly escaped danger, hurriedly unbuckled their seatbelts and helped each other out of the plane.
However, unlike the movie, Sebastian Shaw had already absorbed all the reactor's energy at this point.
He directly blasted a large hole in the submarine with energy and stepped out, with Red Devil and Riptide standing behind him like guards.
"So you're not dead after all!" This was the first thing Shaw said upon seeing Li Yue.
