Chapter 80 Magneto
Forty-three years ago, a man named Max Eisenhart, who used to be known as Eric Lansherr, teamed up with villains such as the Red Skull to kill almost all superheroes.
In order to achieve great things, Eric Lansherr did not hesitate to kill his beloved daughter with his own hands. After his death, he became a warlord in several states.
People generally prefer to call him by his other well-known nickname:
Magneto.
Fifty years after the Wasteland, before the start of the plot of Twilight Wolf's Hometown, Magneto, who was old and had lost his ability to defend himself, had died at the hands of a fat black man who called himself Kingpin.
However, as far as it seems, although it is not known whether he is too old to use his mutant powers, he is still alive at this point in time.
"Of course I remember that he led people to kill half of the Avengers." The old man sitting by the bed took out a silver metal blind stick from somewhere and held it in his hand.
Touching the bandage wrapped around the stick for easy grip, Matt sighed softly.
The memory of that day will always stay in his heart. The first to be attacked were the Avengers, followed by the X-Men, the Fantastic Four and all other heroic organizations.
The most powerful heroes, such as Thor and Iron Man, were besieged and fell at the first time.
As a street hero with a relatively small reputation, he was not targeted, and he forced his way out in the street fighting he was best at.
Finally, he was lucky enough to survive to this day.
If White Night hadn't suddenly sent Quicksilver to find him, he actually planned to stay in the Chastity Wall Monastery to meditate for the rest of his life.
Because he has been doing this for nearly forty years-since Bullseye gave him a fatal blow three years after the day of the fall.
"Let's go, let me see what you can do."
Matt put on his sunglasses, tightened the lining of the Daredevil on his body, and said slowly.
The group quickly drove to Salt Lake City, which is about 600 kilometers away from Hammerfall, which was once Las Vegas, and it takes seven or eight hours to drive.
But the modified Spider car is incredibly fast, and its ability to fall from a cliff without any damage greatly shortens the required distance. It can drive directly up countless cliffs as if it were flat ground.
It was dusk near the downtown area of Salt Lake City, and a drizzle began to fall from the sky.
The speed of the car gradually slowed down, allowing everyone to observe the surroundings.
This place is completely different from the Western doomsday scene of Hammerfall. Many pre-war buildings have been preserved. Although the high-rise buildings on the street look like they are covered with a layer of dust, the walls are covered with small holes left by wind and rain.
Many of the windows are still lit, and there are still many hurried citizens busy with their own work downstairs.
"I always feel something is wrong." Pietro muttered while sitting in the back seat, staring at the pedestrians outside, with Matt next to him.
Frank was driving as usual, and Bai Ye was sitting in the co-pilot.
Although Salt Lake City looked a bit like it did before the war, every passerby didn't dare to look up at people, and the way they walked was weak, as if they hadn't eaten normal food for a long time.
When they heard the roar of the Spider Car's engine, they only dared to glance at it from a distance, then quickened their pace to leave the street and walk into the alley.
"This is Magneto's land." Matt next to him shook his head. Although he had been living in seclusion in the Himalayas, he was still very concerned about things in the outside world.
Including whether the Red Skull still holds power, whether Banner's green-skinned thing died in his cave, etc.
Of course, it also includes how Magneto has ruled several states under his command in the past few decades. Even Doctor Doom next door thinks he is a bit cruel.
The Spider Car passed through the malnourished passers-by, and the tires gently rolled over the dirty streets. The vehicle continued to move forward and turned onto a main road. The streets along the way were still quiet, and not many people were walking. The atmosphere in the car was a bit tense, and everyone kept scanning the surrounding environment, alert to potential dangers.
However, when the spider car drove to the end of the main road, it suddenly braked. Everyone except Matt couldn't help but look up, their eyes focused on the skyscraper at the end of the main road.
On the dark skyscraper, slender iron nails covered the walls, like cold sharp blades, piercing through the palms of hundreds of ordinary people and nailing them to the cold wall.
Their expressions were distorted, and their shouts and wails were intertwined, resounding throughout the block, but no one could hear their pain of begging for relief.
Their hands were firmly fixed by nails, but they tightly grasped these nails that brought pain, and their feet stepped on the rusty iron rods as the only support.
The blood flowing from those innocent people was like a wailing hymn, gradually condensing into drops of deep red blood beads, constantly rising.
In the gloomy rainy night, if someone could get closer, he could see that the blood beads were intertwined with some iron filings floating in the air, forming a weird and bloody picture.
The large words originally written in blood on the wall gradually lost their color, as if they were faded by the erosion of time. However, as the blood and iron filings were smeared on them, the large words once again showed a bleak brilliance.
Those large words redrawn in bright colors appeared in front of everyone: mutants, the future.
"It seems that Magneto is indeed crazy."
Opening the car door, Bai Ye frowned and got out of the car and said.
There were no pedestrians or lights around at this time, and only the top floor of the skyscraper seemed to have a single light on.
No wonder that in the future, after black gold and killing Magneto, he found a stadium and fed people to the dinosaurs on the lawn every day, and there were still a lot of people supporting him.
Without him, Magneto has been too inhumane for decades.
In fact, if you think about it for a moment, you can understand why he became like this. Forty-three years ago, in order to allow mutants to gain a place in this world, he killed his daughter with his own hands and watched his son die in front of his eyes.
As a result, after paying such a high price and finally winning a land for the mutants, the number of mutants continued to decrease sharply, reaching the point where they can now be counted in the hundreds.
The so-called ‘next stage of human evolution’ boasted by mutants has also become a joke.
Part of the inspiration for the movie "Wolverine 3" came from this. Judging from the reason why the number of mutants in the movie has decreased, I am afraid that the Red Skull in this universe added some kind of medicine to the water and food, making mutants The birth rate is getting lower and lower.
After Bai Ye got out of the car, the Punisher was the first to jump out of the car, holding a gun in his hand.
He looked at the people nailed on the skyscraper, his eyes burning with anger and his teeth chattering.
"No one is allowed to kill him, let me do it."
After saying that, he took off his coat and threw it on the driver's seat, revealing the pale white skull on the T-shirt on his chest.
