American Comics: Starting from the Invincible Young Hero

Chapter 66 Child, you must not be fooled by Eric
Magneto has always been a man of great pomp and circumstance.

Manipulating a barrage of missiles, dismantling the Golden Gate Bridge, relocating stadiums...

Magneto appears to effortlessly manipulate the classic electromagnetic shield from the comics and the steel vortex above his head.

Russell suspected that the world seemed closer to the comic book version than the movie version.

“I will never kill my own kind unless absolutely necessary,” Magneto replied coldly. “But you must choose your side, young man. Will you stand with your own kind, or with those humans who persecute us?”

He couldn't be sure he could stop in time for the next attack, so he remained motionless.

"I won't choose either. I'll do whatever I want, and no one can force me."

Russell sneered and swooped down like lightning. Magneto pulled downwards from a distance, activating the steel vortex, which churned down like a shredder, but it was still too slow.

Only a portion of the metal managed to hurl at Russell, whose eyes flashed with laser beams, vaporizing all the steel in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, Russell appeared in front of Magneto, his eyes firing lasers containing terrifying energy that blasted against Magneto's energy shield.

"Do not……"

Magneto effortlessly neutralized Cyclops's attack by manipulating electromagnetic fields to distort light, and even jokingly made the laser fly back, knocking down Cyclops and Storm.

Russell's laser was too strong, making it extremely difficult for him to deflect and defend against it.

Magneto's force field shield is enough to easily withstand a nuclear explosion at point-blank range, but Cyclops's power is more concentrated, and his single-target killing ability is even greater than that of a nuclear explosion.

Buzz!

The invisible electromagnetic shield began to become unstable.

Taking advantage of this moment, Russell threw a punch that finally broke through Magneto's electromagnetic field. His fist grazed the flames and slammed heavily into Magneto's chest.

Bang bang bang!
Magneto was sent flying backward, crashing through three concrete walls before barely managing to regain his balance.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, only to find that Russell had disappeared again.

In addition to creating electromagnetic fields, Magneto can also use powerful magnetic fields to strengthen the metal fibers in his suit to resist attacks, making the suit as hard as armor and its defense approaching that of adamantium.

However, Russell could have punched Magneto in the face just now; Magneto's head isn't as hard as steel, but he didn't.

This can be seen as a way of repaying Magneto for ruining his plans, as he never intended to kill him.

"above!"

A voice rang out, and Magneto's fighting instincts made him look up, just in time to see Russell swooping down from the sky, throwing a punch.

Magneto urgently extracted all the surrounding metal, hastily forming a steel shield several meters thick above his head.

Ten meters of steel is enough to withstand a small nuclear explosion.

Russell's fist slammed down, and the shockwave knocked down all the buildings within a radius of several miles.

The shield was dented and deformed as if struck by a meteorite, and was torn in two.

Magneto was horrified.

A fierce wind blew in his face, making it impossible for him to open his eyes, and a fist large enough to flatten a hill was firmly positioned three inches above his head.

"you lose!"

From fist to palm, Russell took off his helmet and played with it for a moment.

Magneto's face flushed red and then turned pale. He felt humiliated and shaken to the core at being defeated by a young man who looked to be under twenty.

"You've won today, young man."

Your strength is truly awe-inspiring.

"You still seem unconvinced?"

Having roughly familiarized himself with the molecular structure of Magneto's helmet, Russell tossed it back.

The blue light controlled the sand and gravel on the ground to fly up, and under the shaping of an invisible hand, the matter was transformed into metal, and then shaped into an identical helmet.

Russell put it on his head, then conjured a mirror and flew it up, as if he were shopping at a hat shop, and straightened it in front of the mirror.

He didn't pay much attention to Magneto from beginning to end.

It was as if he had just defeated Magneto, who was still the most powerful mutant on Earth, and it was just a trivial matter.

"Think about the potential of your abilities."

No matter how many times Magneto watched it, he was still amazed by this creator-like power, and even moved his gaze to Russell's face with a certain fervor, staring directly at him.

"If you want to join the Brotherhood of Mutants, we can discuss everything!"

He raised his hands, as if giving a passionate speech.

"Think about it, with an infinite number of people, we can create a world as beautiful as the Garden of Eden, where our fellow human beings can live without lacking food and clothing, and without worrying about money."

Our mutant status will leap from being the scum of the earth to being the envy of the entire world! Our fellow mutants will treat you like a saint.

That's the benefit of power.

Before Russell demonstrated his immense power, Magneto, though amazed by Russell's ability to manipulate matter, only invited him to be his second-in-command.

But Russell defeated him, and suddenly everything became negotiable.

"What you said sounds very appealing, but I'm not used to having to consult with others before doing anything."

Russell waved his hand to remove the mirror and shook his head.

When switching to the Eve template, his body is relatively 'fragile'.

Russell wouldn't dare to be so casual with other people, but Magneto's character and reputation still hold considerable weight.

Especially now that he's being treated as one of the mutants.

To humans, Magneto is a mad terrorist, but to some mutants, he is a great leader who explores the future of his race and is willing to dedicate himself to the cause of mutants.

"Father!"

Suddenly a voice came from the sky, and a beautiful girl with fiery red hair, snow-white skin, and lips like newly blooming roses, her amber eyes filled with anxiety, landed on the ground.

"You absolutely cannot start a war so rashly!"

A silver-haired man in a leather jacket flew alongside her, enveloped in red energy, though he seemed somewhat unwilling, with his arms crossed.

However, he had no choice but to be dragged along by his younger sister to persuade their father.

"Wait a minute, Wanda."

Magneto held up his palm, asking his son and daughter to wait a moment, and said with a serious expression and a cold snort.

"Young man, don't think that you can surpass me just because you managed to defeat me once. I just have a love for talent, and I haven't used many of my abilities yet."

And young man, how old are you? Do you have any experience managing a force, or even a country?

On Magneto's side, Russell couldn't hear anything anymore; he was completely captivated by the red figure that had just descended from the sky.

Scarlet Witch?

The Scarlet Witch is tall and elegant, her crimson battle robes outlining her perfect curves. Chaotic energy swirls around her like a thin mist, making her fatally attractive to any man.

Especially Russell.

Not only because of her beautiful appearance, but also because of her abilities.

It's like a cheat code, a 'chaos magic' that can alter the reality of the world with a single sentence.

"What did Father just say?" Quicksilver was surprised. He had actually heard his usually arrogant father admit defeat.

They were defeated by this young man?
Wanda, anxious to stop her father from launching a nuclear missile, looked around and frowned slightly before noticing the collapsed military base, which did not seem to be caused by metal manipulation abilities.

She looked at the handsome young man in front of her, somewhat incredulous.

Did he defeat his father?
"Well... what you said makes some sense. I'll think about it."

Russell turned his gaze back to Magneto and said.

He originally had a different idea; he could have done it all on his own, but it would have brought the mutant nation from the original storyline to the fore, drawing global attention.

But when he saw the Scarlet Witch, he immediately changed his mind.

This X-Men universe actually has Scarlet Witch.

"Think about it?" Magneto glanced at his beautiful daughter, then at Russell, and smiled knowingly. He didn't seem to care and patted Russell on the shoulder.

"Then you should think it over carefully."

"Let's leave here first."

"Wait a minute..." All the buildings in the entire base were knocked down by the terrifying shockwave. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Storm manipulated the wind to block the three of them and held up a collapsing wall, thus saving them from disaster.

“My child, you must never be misled by Eric and go to the same extremes as him.”

Professor X was startled when he saw Russell and Magneto about to leave, and used Cyclops to persuade them to stay.

Looking at the destructive power around them, Wolverine and his companions were still shaken. When they saw that the young mutant was about to be persuaded by Magneto to take him away, their expressions changed.

"Infinite Man, our fellow countryman, are you sure you want to go with Magneto? He's a globally recognized mutant terrorist! It's because of him that our mutant reputation is so bad!"

Storm Girl said hurriedly.

They didn't expect that Russell would so forcefully prevent Magneto from launching a nuclear missile that would trigger a world war and defeat him, undoubtedly putting him on their side.

Now, after saying just a few words, he's about to leave with Magneto!
