"Outside of Earth?" Chen Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly.
"I told you before, extraterrestrial visitors have indeed come to Earth. Coincidentally, I know two of them, and they are extremely skilled in the field of weapons forging."
"Through my introduction, and with the assistance of a Mutants technician at the school, they completed this piece yesterday after more than half a month."
"According to them, the finished product initially weighs over a ton, has a hardness comparable to Adamantium, and is equally sharp."
"Furthermore, the entire knife possesses excellent energy conduction properties; and embedded inside the handle is a geomagnetic core from Dwarf Star."
"As long as the Earth's magnetic core continues to absorb energy, its mass will continue to increase; the more energy it absorbs, the heavier it becomes."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up.
This weapon was practically tailor-made for him.
In particular, the geomagnetic core, which can increase in weight infinitely with energy input, directly transformed a barely usable heavy weapon into a true divine weapon.
Indeed, for Chen Xiao, whose grip strength now exceeds 7,000 tons and arm strength surpasses 10,000 tons, a weapon weighing over a ton is as light as picking up a straw.
"Haha... How about it, is it to your liking?"
On the other end of the phone, Professor X laughed heartily, "I remember that after your X-Gene Second Awakening, the power within you could materialize and attach itself to your fist."
"So you can still use this weapon."
At this point, the professor's tone became slightly wistful.
When he designed it with those two "guests," he estimated that one ton of finished product would be the limit, thinking that it would be enough for Chen Xiao to work freely.
Unexpectedly, the opponent's growth rate far exceeded all expectations.
At this moment, Chen Xiao suddenly asked, "Professor, how many people in total know the details of this weapon?"
After a brief pause, Professor X slowly replied, "Including me, there are four in total."
Chen Xiao then asked, "Did those two 'guests' have any dealings with the America government or other major powers?"
The professor paused again for a moment. "No. They are extremely elusive, leaving almost no trace on Earth."
"The other Mutants technician is also a member of the school and would never leak information."
"Very good." A confident smile appeared on Chen Xiao's face.
The moment he saw the weapon, the idea of attacking the Sentry Laboratory became clearly formed in his mind.
He had been scheming: how to destroy the Sentry Laboratory and underground military base, seize all research data and equipment, and completely conceal his identity?
After all, his abilities and characteristics had already been fully revealed in the previous battles, and once he made a move, his true identity would be almost impossible to hide.
At the moment, he has no intention of completely severing America. After all, Nick Fury still holds the communicator that can directly connect to Captain Marvel.
That was a top-tier fighter capable of directly suppressing Thanos without the Infinity Stones.
" Vitas, what are you planning to do?" Professor X finally couldn't help but ask.
From Chen Xiao's words, he vaguely sensed a certain kind of decision.
Since the professor was the one who facilitated this matter, and he would be responsible for handling the aftermath, Chen Xiao didn't hide anything. "Professor, you're aware of the Sentry Laboratory incident, right?"
"You mean...!" The professor's voice trembled slightly on the other end of the phone.
"Yes, I want to take down that military base, along with the underground Trask Industries Laboratory," Chen Xiao said calmly.
"Following the Alcatraz incident, the Sentinels ' combat performance disappointed the US, and under pressure, they are accelerating the development of the second generation."
"Therefore, in order to solve this problem once and for all, I had long ago considered completely eliminating this hidden danger."
In reality, what truly attracted Chen Xiao was the Sentry technology itself.
But often, the key to effective expression lies precisely in this: presenting the message from a different angle makes the action seem more responsible and more relevant to the survival of the entire Mutants community.
Professor X paused for a moment before finally speaking, " Vitas, that base is extremely heavily guarded, with a reinforced mechanized regiment of over three thousand men stationed there."
"In addition to conventional light and heavy firepower, it is also equipped with air defense missile systems, low-altitude Rocket regiments, and a large number of countermeasures against Mutants abilities."
"These are just the visible defenses. Deeper inside, there are more than a dozen Mutants controlled by the Trask Institute, whose strength should not be underestimated."
"One of these Mutants can suppress the abilities of other Mutants for a short period of time within a specific area."
"Add to that the two custom-built Sentry stored in the research institute's warehouse, and the five second-generation Sentinels that have already been assembled. Even if the entire X-Men were to be mobilized, they might not be able to force their way through."
Just from these words, one can tell that Professor X has been secretly monitoring the Sentry Laboratory's movements; otherwise, he could never have such a detailed understanding of its internal operations.
Much of the crucial information is unavailable even through public channels. For example, Chen Xiao once hacked into the internal network of Trask Industries, but he never found the special individual that was specifically designed to counter mutant abilities.
"I never expected that place to be so heavily guarded."
Chen Xiao was slightly surprised, then a slight smile appeared on his lips, "But for me, that person's suppressive effect is almost negligible."
"That's right, you and Jean are indeed unaffected by him." Professor X on the other side nodded in confirmation.
In the professor's eyes, Chen Xiao's core ability is physical enhancement, while energy bursts are merely an auxiliary means.
Even though he was interfered with by that person and temporarily unable to use his energy, his body, which was already beyond the realm of reason, still possessed overwhelming combat power.
"However, no matter how safe we are, we cannot let our guard down," Professor X said solemnly.
Chen Xiao smiled gently, "Don't worry, Professor. I won't act rashly until I'm absolutely certain. I still need to do some preliminary preparations."
"... All right."
Seeing that his attempts to dissuade him were ineffective, Professor X pondered for a moment and said, " Vitas, remember to notify me in advance on the day of the operation. I will activate the Cerebro to provide you with remote support."
"As for Scott and his group, their abilities are too conspicuous; they are not suitable to participate this time."
"Clear."
The moment the call ended, the red-haired girl was right in front of him, her pupils gleaming with a scarlet light, her breathing slightly rapid, and she excitedly whispered, "Darling! Take me there!"
"You can't do it. That person's restraint towards you is extremely obvious."
Chen Xiao shook his head. "Once your abilities are sealed, you'll only have 10% of your combat strength left. Facing thousands of well-trained elite soldiers is too risky."
After politely declining Yidileisi's offer, Chen Xiao immediately began preparations.
He wanted to redesign the knife's appearance and also create a set of equipment to conceal his true identity;
At the same time, one must adjust their swordsmanship style to completely detach themselves from the traces of their current identity.
These were not difficult. He immediately made a phone call and asked Lucia to acquire a precision instrument processing plant and a special metal manufacturing plant.
He then immersed himself in the largest university library in Pochut City, pulling out professional books on materials science, metal chemistry, and structural mechanics to systematically fill in the gaps in his knowledge.
He plans to spend a few days creating a set of gear that combines good looks and protective capabilities, a suit tailor-made for his second identity.
That's right, he now openly has X-Men identity;
Using the special weapon he acquired today, combined with the swordsmanship system inherited from the Virtual Battlefield, he plans to establish a separate, secret identity.
This identity is specifically used for missions that cannot be exposed: destroying the Sentry Laboratory and clearing all experimental equipment and research data;
They intercepted the Infinity Stones scattered across the Earth ahead of schedule.
Chen Xiao was very interested in these gems. He wanted to see just how much his combat power would increase when he already possessed Superman strength and then added the powers of the Infinity Stones.
Moreover, the gemstone is too powerful; if it falls into the wrong hands, it will eventually become a deadly threat.
It would be better to let him take control of the overall situation and prevent problems before they arise.
In addition, he harbored a bold idea: to use his superhuman physical strength to directly fuse with gems, rather than simply using them as external weapons.
If one could truly merge the four gems of time, space, soul, and power into one's own body, perhaps one could indeed leap to the Silver Superman realm.
Time always flies when you're busy.
Over the next two days, a peculiar phenomenon quietly appeared in the library of Sanglai University: in a corner, a black-haired girl was flipping through books.
But that wasn't the focus. What truly caught the eye was the black-haired boy sitting next to her: handsome, tall and straight like a pine tree, his smile like the first rays of the rising sun, gentle yet not dazzling.
More pleasing to the eye than movie stars, more natural than male models on the runway.
A group of girls quietly gathered around; some pretended to borrow books, while others bent down to organize their notes, but in reality, they kept stealing glances.
Don't get me wrong, attraction isn't exclusive to men; women's intuition and admiration are often more direct and passionate.
In the past two days, male students at Sanglai University have noticed that many female students rush to the library as soon as class ends, and some even spend the whole day there, neglecting the cafeteria.
Chen Xiao remained seated in the corner, turning the pages of complex texts on materials science, mechanical principles, and metallic phase transitions. His gaze was as precise as an electronic scanner, instantly capturing key points and imprinting them into his mind.
His brain worked at high speed, classifying, refining, and reconstructing massive amounts of information, quickly internalizing it into his own cognition.
Surrounding him was a group of blonde, silver, and brown female college students, each with regular features, outstanding temperament, and well-proportioned figures, whose scores were consistently above 70.
They quietly returned the books he had finished reading to him, then fetched the next one, their movements gentle and their eyes bright.
No one knew what he was looking for. Occasionally, a girl would tentatively ask him, and he would just smile gently, a smile so pure that it only piqued the curiosity of those around him.
The boy in the distance looked at Chen Xiao, who was being fawned over, and his eyes welled up with tears of envy.
We're both made of flesh and blood, so how can there be such a huge difference? Sigh...
At this moment, Chen Xiao closed the last book in his hand, and the silver-haired girl beside him leaned slightly forward, handing him a thick book in a soft and clear voice:
" Vitas, this is the last monograph on advanced materials in our collection."
Chen Xiao took the book, his smile spreading across his face, both sunny and serene. "Thank you, Euphemia."
This silver-haired girl was the most eye-catching among the group of girls: her features were so delicate they were almost sharp, and her curves were full yet powerful; especially her long, straight legs, which would not be inferior even on the Victoria's Secret runway.
