Chapter 101 / Chapter 102
Amidst this merciless slaughter, many figures in the city were carbonized, their entire bodies and skin carbonized under the stimulation of the mist.
It was like a cocoon, completely enveloping their figures.
In less than a minute, when those layers of carbonized material completely fall off, that will be the moment when the Inhumans fully awaken.
"Scan their body structure and genetic information..."
But as luck would have it...
Captain Marvel Carol had roamed the universe for many years, witnessed these scenes. Enraged, she scanned the carbonized figures around her with the wristwatch she wore on her wrist.
Then, a startling discovery made her eyes widen in astonishment.
"Scanning analysis revealed that the carbonized human body contained genetic information fragments similar to those of the Kree."
Impossible!!
Carol found this conclusion utterly unbelievable; she simply couldn't believe that fragments of genetic information from her past enemies, the Kree— one of the three great interstellar empires—had been passed down within a human body.
This is no joke!
Multiple scans yield the same answer.
"Analysis shows that this fog spreading through the city is very consistent with a biochemical technology used by the Kree Empire in the past."
And just like that, another coincidence occurred.
Carol felt that her worldview had been shaken.
So, Nick Fury only started using the pager after discovering the Kree's clandestine methods?
"Based on the genetic information report of the carbonized individuals, although an accurate assessment is impossible, the genetic period is at least tens of thousands of years."
In other words, the Kree visited Earth long ago and combined their own genes with human DNA to create some kind of biological weapon.
Damn the Kree Empire!!
Their scheme was incredibly sophisticated.
So, Nick Fury only started using the pager after discovering the Kree's clandestine methods?
Carol, in her own imagination, wholeheartedly agreed. After all, the Kree were her mortal enemies, and Nick Fury must have realized this, which is why he immediately sent out a distress signal.
Chapter 101
Where did Mutants come from?
That was the first visit to Earth by the Cosmic Celestials from ancient times. They modified certain human subjects, giving birth to a completely new race: Mutants.
It is worth mentioning that the Celestials were discovered by the Earth God during their third secret visit to Earth, which led to an overwhelming war.
As for the origins of the Inhumans, they do have some connection with Mutants.
Millions of years ago, the Kree, an alien race, discovered that Homo sapiens on Earth were quite special and possessed enormous life potential, so they conducted a series of human experiments on them.
The Kree combined their own genes with those of humans to form a completely new race: the Inhumans.
This was originally intended to create a terrifying bio-engineered warrior.
But...
Because of the war with the Skrulls, another cosmic empire, they were unable to retrieve all the experimental subjects and had to leave hastily.
The two races had no prior interaction.
Not to mention that the Inhumans royal family moved the Attilan base to the moon in the past.
Certainly.
The reality-altering fluctuations caused by Su Chen also affected the Inhumans itself.
Some members of the Inhumans have mysteriously disappeared.
12 When the current Black Bolt learned that the strange fluctuations in reality originated from Earth, he was furious. He ordered the Inhumans on Earth to immediately use Terrigen Crystal to catalyze the creation of more new Inhumans.
In addition, the mastermind behind this must be brought to justice to give the Inhumans an explanation.
And so.
After gradually learning about the rise of Mutants and the matter of the Number One Mutants, Maximus from the Attilan royal family, with a cold laugh, directly ordered the Terrigen Mist to be spread in two major cities.
Feel the pain.
He spread his arms and began to sing loudly in an aria-like manner.
"The calamity inflicted upon our Inhumans will be repaid to you Mutants a hundredfold, even ten thousandfold."
"Let me show you what the pain of Mutants extinction truly means."
This was a collision of fates.
In fact, the two races have an inherent and irreconcilable conflict.
After all, the mist released by the Terrigen Crystal was a rebirth, a mutation, an awakening, and the beginning of gaining supernatural abilities for the Inhumans.
However, for Mutants, this fog is a poisonous fog, extremely deadly, and even Omega-Level Mutant cannot withstand it for long.
Ultimately, it stems from the influence exerted by the Kree millions of years ago after studying the Mutants test subjects left behind by the Celestials.
In the comics, the Inhumans rose to power on Earth by stepping over Mutants.
"We should have marched on Earth long ago. Confined to a bustling lunar city, it's no match for the beauty of the human world."
Maximus, Black Bolt's brother and a prince of Attilan, is ambitious and wants to seize this opportunity to completely take over a base belonging to the Inhumans.
Compared to the cratered far side of the moon.
The beauty of a prosperous Earth is still more appealing.
"Ignore those dead Mutants."
"Listen up, immediately recall all newly Inhumans that have completely carbonized and formed cocoons."
His order arrived as scheduled.
However, some of the Inhumans' subordinates expressed concern about this.
"Perhaps we should be afraid of the Number One Mutants. It's said that the Inhumans living on Earth are very wary of that boy's strength."
"Snort!"
Maximus sneered, "I thought you were Mutants? No need for such sycophantic remarks. Do you really think he'd come here to die in this Terrigen Mist environment?"
"That's right, a Mutants squad that just came here, fully equipped, but they stubbornly ventured into the Terrigen Mist and died from poisoning."
The Terrigen Mist that has shrouded this mountain town for so long has never dissipated.
This decision was made based on the local climate.
The metropolis of over a million people is built against the mountains. As the mountain winds carry the Terrigen Mist slowly downwards, it won't be long before the entire city's residents are completely affected.
The Terrigen Mist not only caused direct organ failure and death among Mutants, but also resulted in the tragic deaths of many humans.
The reason is quite simple.
That is, many people carry the X-Gene in their genes, but they look like ordinary people because the gene is not expressed.
General Stryker is a prime example; his son, Mastermind, is a Mutants.
Similarly.
This is why, in the movie "X-Men: Days of Future Past," the Sentinels nearly wiped out even ordinary humans after identifying the invisible Mutant Gene.
Soon.
These Inhumans living on Earth began their work, preparing to completely contain the newly formed members of the cocoon.
And just then...
Despair!!
A crisp footstep echoed outside the mountain town.
His tall, slender figure glanced at the city built against the mountain, which was gradually shrouded in mist, and then took another step. His entire figure disappeared completely amidst the ripples in the space beneath his feet.
Su Chen has arrived.
He ventured alone into the Terrigen Mist.
The endless fog obscured everyone's vision, making the visible field of vision extremely narrow.
Su Chen is naturally not included in this category.
News of such a massive genocide had reached the Utopia camp on the East Coast more than ten minutes earlier, and the entire camp was in a state of outrage.
This is absolutely amazing!
It's not just about not letting them, the Mutants, get away with it!
Are they even targeting humans who carry recessive Mutant Gene?
This is not a small number.
As a result, the entire mountain town gradually became a dead zone, and people noticed unidentified individuals carrying cocooned, carbonized figures on the streets outside.
The surviving humans locked their doors and windows, held their guns, and cowered in their homes in fear, awaiting rescue.
That's terrible.
Faced with the Terrigen Mist ravaging the mountain city, the Mutants were filled with despair and despair. They were simply unable to break in, and the first squad they had sent out earlier had already lost all life.
We are at a loss.
There was absolutely no response.
Under such dire circumstances, Su Chen arrived alone.
He was never a Mutants.
Naturally, it was unaffected by the Terrigen Mist; even the Infinity evolving genes showed no reaction to it, clearly indicating that it had no stimulating effect whatsoever.
"Supreme..."
At that moment, a figure kneeling on the ground, writhing in unbearable pain, reached out to Su Chen as if seeing a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, his respectful remark just now was merely a final burst of energy before his death.
He finished speaking.
He then collapsed to the ground, his breath fading.
Chapter 102
Looking at the fallen Mutants figure, Su Chen didn't say much, his cold and ruthless face showing no emotion.
But the cold light in his eyes grew even more chilling.
Despair!!
He just kept walking forward.
The Terrigen Mist completely enveloped everything here, making visibility a real problem for others.
Buzz!
However, Su Chen's eyes, which gleamed with a faint light, saw through everything perfectly. His gaze was unobstructed and fell upon an oddity walking on the street a hundred meters away.
He was considered an oddity because he had horns on his head.
Looking at it this way, one would definitely instinctively think it's Mutants.
However, Mutants simply cannot survive in such a foggy environment, so an answer is almost certain.
