"I have something I need to investigate," Bai Ye said, taking the clothes Xiao Taoqi handed him while he was naked. He then took out his phone and dialed a number from his memory.

After a busy signal, a seductive voice came from the other end: "Bai, what's up with your call? Are you inviting me to stay the night?"

On the mutant island, Mystique lay on the sofa and spoke gently, her attitude completely different from when she first treated Bai Ye.

Listening to the seductive words on the other end of the phone, Bai Ye's lips twitched slightly. He believed that if he really agreed, he could sleep with the other person that very night.

However, Mystique was far too experienced, having slept with countless people over the years, so White Night had little interest in this Red Sea that had been developed by many people.

"Raven, did you see the news on TV about the president being assassinated by a mutant? The assassin was your son. Can you contact Professor X for me? I suspect something might have happened to him and the mutant academy," Bai Ye said, getting straight to the point.

"What did you say? My son?" Riven's expression changed slightly. "Wait for me a moment, I'll go contact Charles."

Chapter 89 Take the initiative

Ten minutes later, Magneto arrived at the mutant island of Utopia upon hearing the news.

"How is it going?" Eric asked anxiously when he saw Mystique.

“It’s terrible. Charles hasn’t replied, and we’ve lost contact with our informants at the Mutant Academy.” Riven said with a grim expression, “The situation really is as Bai said; something has gone wrong.”

“White Night, do you know who did it?” Eric said into the phone.

After confirming his guess with Magneto, Bai Ye replied, "It was Stryker. Whether it was the assassination of the president or the attack on the mutant academy, it was him."

"Stryker? It's him again!" Magneto and Mystique both turned pale. They hadn't expected it to be him again. He was like a persistent ghost.

"What do you need me to do next?" Eric asked into the phone. "If you feel it conflicts with your plans, Charles and the others... I can abandon them."

Hearing Magneto say this, Bai Ye was also stunned. He really didn't expect Magneto to do this. It seems that he really has entrusted the great cause of reviving mutants to him.

"No need. As far as I know, Stryker has also developed a brainwave amplifier, intending to use Professor X's abilities to find and kill all mutants. If we continue to do nothing, what awaits us is genocide," Bai Ye said after reading the script.

On the other end of the phone, Magneto and Mystique looked at each other, both shocked and furious. If they hadn't known about this, they probably wouldn't have known how they died.

"But you don't need to get involved in this. I can handle it. Just wait for news." Bai Ye said, and slowly hung up the phone.

The next moment, he felt a strange spiritual force invading his brain and beginning to alter his perception.

Bai Ye instantly sensed the abnormality in his brain, but at this moment his mental strength was comparable to that of a million people, and even if Professor X went all out, he couldn't do anything to him.

However, just to be on the safe side, he flashed into the illusory space, leaving only a residual image in place.

Separated by two different timelines, Professor X's telepathic abilities naturally lost their effect on him, and the connection was severed.

Inside the military base, Stryker looked at Professor X, who had been injected with a hallucinogenic drug, and asked, "How's it going? Have you got him under control? Now, immediately distort his common sense and make him declare his opposition to mutants."

“…No…” Professor X, who had lost consciousness, said intermittently.

"What? No?" Stryker's eyes widened. "How could he resist your psychic abilities?"

“He…he is…” Professor X struggled with his expression, but under the influence of the drug, he still managed to say, “…He is a mutant, that’s his mutant ability.”

Stryker: ...

Looking at Professor X, Stryker's face darkened completely; he never expected that Bai Ye was also a mutant.

'Protectors of mutants...Professor X was also invited to the book signing event...'

In an instant, many things from before matched up in Stryker's mind, and Stryker's fists clenched tightly, feeling that he had been thoroughly tricked.

'Should I kill him immediately?' Stryker thought to himself, but quickly dismissed the idea: 'No, he's immune to mind control, and with his mobility, I might not be able to kill him.'

"Sentinel robots, but I only have five on hand, and they're still semi-finished products. Mass production hasn't started yet, so I have to wait a while longer."

'Anyway, he has no idea that I was behind it, so he's safe for now. I'll deal with him after the brainwave amplifier is finished in a few days, and I'll eliminate all the other mutants first.' Stryker thought to himself. Right now, he needed time.

But just as Stryker was deciding to play it safe, inside the factory, Bai Ye, who had concealed himself in an alternate dimension, had a chilling look in his eyes: 'Professor X? No, it should be Stryker, what does he want to do to me?'

'Professor X knows my identity; my identity has been exposed.' Bai Ye immediately realized this possibility, then put himself in Stryker's madman's perspective, and realized that trouble was likely to come one after another.

'We can't sit idly by any longer. Once this madman sets his sights on us, we're doomed. We have to take the initiative.'

Thinking of all this, Bai Ye sighed softly.

Originally, he intended to gradually transfer worldly power to his own hands through normal means. Given another four to five months, he was confident that he could reach a peak in popularity, and at the same time, it wouldn't be a problem for his physical fitness to increase ten thousandfold.

It was noon. After checking the time, Bai Ye said to Smith and Xiao Taoqi, who were completely unaware of what was happening, "Let's close the factory for another day. I have something to take care of."

"Another holiday?" Little Rascal and Smith said in unison. They noticed that Bai Ye had been quite busy lately, and now they had two days off in a row.

“That’s right, but for your safety, you’ll need to hide for a while.” Bai Ye said calmly, and the next moment the ethereal space opened, taking the two of them inside.

"We'll be shut down for a day. As long as you don't leave the factory on your own, you can do whatever you want," Bai Ye said slowly to the operators. As soon as he finished speaking, he moved and disappeared into the strong wind.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

At that moment, in downtown New York City, even though it was noon, a series of loud bangs, like thunder, suddenly echoed in the sky, causing people to look up in confusion.

Inside the villa, Camilla looked at Bai Ye, who came in through the window, with surprise and asked, "Why are you back?"

"It's not safe here anymore, we need to move to another location." After saying that, Bai Ye directly put Camilla into the ethereal space.

'And then there's Gwen's family.' Bai Ye was somewhat troubled, unsure how to handle it; he had just too many weaknesses.

As for Kingpin, Bai Ye wasn't in a hurry, because he didn't have much expectation of Kingpin's loyalty.

Don't be fooled by their subservient attitude towards you. Such people are cooperative when things are going well, but they turn on you when things are going badly.

Simply put, Kingpin, this mob boss, is an indecisive opportunist; he doesn't believe it.

'Forget it, let's take Gwen and the others with us. After we deal with Stryker, we can take over the human government as well, depending on the situation,' Bai Ye thought, and disappeared from the villa.

Three minutes later, without the knowledge of Rogue, Smith, Camilla, and Gwen's family, White Night led them to the mutant island of "Utopia".

"I'll take action next. Keep an eye on them for me. These are my friends." Bai Ye waved his hand, releasing the people from the space, and looked at Magneto.

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang followed, and Bai Ye disappeared from the spot, flying towards Lake Alcalí in Canada.

The entire journey is 4800 kilometers long, with an average speed of 1400 m/s and an estimated total time of 58 minutes.

Chapter 90 Massacre

At this moment, ten thousand meters above the ground, Bai Ye's body treads on the air, running wildly through the clouds.

If he were on the ground, every step he took would create a crater several meters deep, comparable to the aftermath of a missile bombing, but that would cause too much damage to the surrounding area.

Traveling thousands of kilometers from here to his destination in Canada by land, at least tens of thousands of people would be killed by the shockwave.

Now high in the sky, every step we take creates huge shockwaves that shatter the surrounding clouds, and the deafening roar can be clearly heard for miles around.

But at least for now, the current Earth's environment can still accommodate his running underground.

To strike first is to be strong, but to strike later is to suffer disaster.

Now that they realized their identities had been exposed, they naturally had to eliminate them completely from top to bottom.

Stryker, as the villain of the X-Men series, has been able to persist in the fight against mutants for decades thanks to the main characters' nagging personalities, and he always manages to survive after each failed scheme.

But White Night has no principle of not killing. Since the two sides are enemies, he will grind him to dust and see how Stryker can be resurrected.

'Kill Stryker first, then pacify America.' That's what Bai Ye thought as he raced through the air.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, at a military base located near Lake Alcalí in Canada.

Watching his researchers working busily, Stryker urged the person in charge on site, "Immediately speed up the mass production of the Sentinel robots. In a few days, after we've dealt with most of the mutants, we'll soon be facing a formidable enemy."

“But, Colonel, we don’t have much Adamantium left,” the person in charge said with difficulty. “Most of the alloy was used on the first few robots we created. The robots that were mass-produced later are not as good as the first few in terms of defense.”

"It's alright. Don't forget that we also have Magneto as an enemy. Mind control is no threat to him. He is also an enemy we need to deal with personally."

Stryker asked, "Any other questions?"

“There are many problems,” the person in charge said helplessly. “According to the design concept, at least several variant abilities have not been solidified, and even after the grooves for embedding Pym particles were made, we didn’t have any Pym particles on hand, and there are also…”

"Alright, alright." Stryker waved his hand with a headache and said, "I'll think about these things later. You just need to maximize the production of weapons capable of destroying mutants based on the conditions I provide."

"Yes, sir," the person in charge said helplessly, but the next moment he noticed that the five Sentinel robots in the research room raised their heads and looked in the same direction.

Sentinel robots, as the ultimate weapon against mutants, are naturally equipped with mutant detection devices. They can immediately sense the presence of any mutant within a ten-kilometer radius.

Seeing the Sentinel's reaction, both of their expressions changed simultaneously. Stryker suppressed his inexplicable unease and immediately said, "Immediately investigate the mutant genes in the vicinity."

The researcher responded with a "yes" and immediately pressed the red button next to him.

The next moment, the screen on the other side lit up, displaying all the mutants within a ten-kilometer radius.

Besides the few mutants already marked with special tags who were imprisoned in the base, another mutant was approaching here at an extremely fast speed, as detected by radar.

No, because of the delay in the mutant detection device, the uninvited guest has already arrived, but it has not yet made a move and has chosen to linger nearby.

"Sir, according to monitoring, that mutant's top speed is around Mach 3." The person in charge looked terrified, and felt his hands and feet go weak.

“Mach 3?” Stryker exclaimed in astonishment. “This guy came in a fighter jet?”

“Impossible. The target has been circling the base multiple times without making a move. Such sharp-angle turns are definitely not something a fighter jet can do,” the person in charge said, his face pale.

As a researcher, he was well aware of how terrifying the destructive power would be if a human body could reach that speed. Now, he could only pray that the person coming was a pure speed mutant who relied on their abilities.

As the two were talking, the group tried to access the surveillance footage outside the base, only to find that all the surveillance equipment outside the base had lost contact, and the screen only showed a flashing snowflake pattern.

"Is this Stryker's base?"

At this moment, outside the military base, Bai Ye, who had spent an hour trekking thousands of kilometers to reach this place, calmly crossed his arms and spoke.

The usually lush and beautiful environment around him was now completely unrecognizable.

Everywhere there were craters from explosions and upturned soil, and countless old trees with broken roots, as if it had transformed into a battlefield covered by artillery fire between two armies.

And this was only the damage caused by circling around a few times. At this moment, he is an army all by himself!

"Even though all the surveillance cameras were destroyed, they should have noticed my arrival inside."

Bai Ye released his arms from his chest and slowly said, "In that case, let's formally greet them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Ye took a step forward, and the ground beneath his feet could not support him and shattered inch by inch. He appeared dozens of meters away as if he had teleported, and then gently tapped the outer wall of the base with his right fist.

"boom!"

It was as if a thousand spring thunderclaps were exploding in my ears.

With a loud explosion, the sturdy reinforced concrete outer wall of the military fortress shattered instantly, creating a five-meter-high hole.

Amidst the massive cloud of smoke, the deafening roar could be heard throughout the entire base.
