Chapter 776: Source of Fear - Supreme Celestial Paradise Entrance
In short, the current X-Men have fallen into a vicious cycle. They can only be considered to be barely surviving now. Once Magik's stamina is exhausted, then everything will be over.
And this future will not be too far away.
Finally, Magik was momentarily careless and Magneto seized the weakness. A steel bar pierced Magik's left calf accurately and without error from an extremely tricky angle.
"Ah!" Magik cried out miserably. Her body instantly lost balance, but she did not give up and still summoned a light disc beneath her. She then fell down towards the light disc.
But this was ultimately too slow. Magneto twitched his finger slightly, and the steel bar stuck in Magik's leg shook violently. The severe pain made it impossible for the latter to even think.
Hooking his finger, Magneto caught the steel bar and forcibly pulled Magik out of the light disc backwards. Magik wanted to pull the steel bar out of her leg, but found that she couldn't budge the steel bar at all.
This was natural. That steel bar was still under Magneto's control. Magik trying to pull out the steel bar was equivalent to competing with magnetic force. Relying solely on her power, it was definitely impossible to do.
The only method Magik could think of now was to cut off her own left calf. However, her Soulsword could not do this, because this sword is only lethal to magical creatures. In her human state, she cannot be considered a magical creature.
As for demon form, she had just used it when fighting desperately with Magneto. Relying on her current stamina, there was no way to use it again. But it didn't matter, she didn't only have the Soulsword as an attack method. She could also use magic.
Magik performed incantations and chanted spells, enduring the pain. With her free left hand trembling, she made a few hand gestures. Then, swords composed of orange energy appeared out of thin air beside her left leg, about to slash down.
"Clang!" Magik widened her eyes. On the inevitable path of her magic blade's slash, a purple barrier appeared out of thin air. She had never heard of this magic energy, but Magik could feel the purity of this energy.
"Such beautiful legs, it would be too much of a pity to cut them off." Perhaps it was because it had been too long since he had spoken to anyone, but the first sentence **Highfather** said when he tore through space to make his entrance was very indecent. It sounded like some kind of rogue, not a dimensional demon god who possessed a dimension.
"Illyana Rasputina." **Highfather** slowly uttered Magik's name. "As a newly ascended dimensional deity, your performance is not worthy of this title."
After speaking, **Highfather** snapped his claw. The originally hard steel bar was enveloped in a purple energy, and then it melted like liquid and melted into Magik's calf.
Losing the restriction of the steel bar, Magik naturally fell to the ground. Landing on the ground, she hurriedly looked towards her calf and found that not to mention the steel bar, there wasn't even a wound or blood. Even her stockings had been mended.
"Equivalent exchange, the most basic courses in magic," **Highfather** explained. "Steel bar, trace elements in the air, plus a small amount of magic, wanting to heal this minor injury is really too easy."
"Who are you?" Magik looked up at this obviously non-human creature in front of her. **Highfather** looked like a bipedal turtle, except that purple flames were still burning on this turtle's head and body.
"Like you, the Queen of Limbo," **Highfather** stated Magik's true identity in one sentence. "I am also a dimensional demon god."
"Whoosh!" Just as **Highfather** wanted to elaborate on his identity, Magneto, who had been ignored all along, obviously didn't want to let go of this opportunity. He drew circles with both hands, and not only just appeared beside him, but also several eyeball-sized iron balls.
Magneto slapped out with one palm. These newly condensed iron balls, mixed with electromagnetic force, shot towards **Highfather** who had his back to him like arrows shot from a bowstring. It was the simple but effective electromagnetic cannon.
Deafeningly loud, the electromagnetic cannon instantly broke through the speed of sound. In the blink of an eye, it arrived beside **Highfather**. The speed was so fast that Magik, who was directly facing Magneto, didn't even have time to remind Yang Le.
Who knew that when these electromagnetic cannons were only half a meter away from **Highfather's** position, they were like breaking through the water surface, splashing up countless ripples out of thin air, as if an invisible barrier had been broken through.
Crossing that barrier, the electromagnetic cannons that could originally penetrate tanks actually turned into flowers with no threat. These flowers hit **Highfather's** turtle shell and shattered into countless petals, falling down slowly.
"Equivalent exchange, remember?" **Highfather's** skull head turned a circle in the flame. This bizarre scene couldn't scare Magik who grew up in Hell, but combined with the daffodils mismatched with **Highfather**, it could make her laugh.
"Don't be silly," Magik chuckled. "I've never seen any magician who can do things as freely as you do."
"In fact, there are quite a few people who can do this," **Highfather** snapped his fingers again. Those X-Men who looked like they were cosplaying Ultra Brothers were immediately liberated. The metal crosses that bound them were also transformed into soft beds.
"This universe is much bigger than you think, and there are many things that will exceed what you consider common sense," **Highfather** explained to Magik like a teacher, raising a finger.
"For example, as a dimensional demon god, I don't need to abide by restrictions and can descend to the real world at will."
"Huh? I thought you were the same type as me," Magik curiously sized up **Highfather**.
She had always thought that **Highfather** was the same type of dimensional demon god as her, because he was originally an Earth creature, so he could freely shuttle between two worlds. She didn't expect **Highfather** was not.
"No, no, no," **Highfather** waved his finger. "I'm not the same as you. I have someone backing me up."
It has to be said that befriending Eternity has many conveniences. For example, dimensional demon gods who cannot descend at will in the Marvel Universe, Yang Le can ignore any restraints and descend directly, as simple as taking a walk in his own back garden.
While the two were talking, Magneto was also attacking, but he used all his skills and still could not break through **Highfather's** barrier. It was a situation where he could not be defeated even if he exerted all his strength.
No! It's not that he cannot be defeated. Magneto has now become 天锤尊者, and he still has a magic weapon that can help him.
Just like a certain Master Mage once said, to use magic to defeat magic, professional matters are best left to professionals.
Magneto beckoned with his right hand, and the 天锤 that had been circling around him immediately stood in front of him. Under the blessing of electromagnetic force, the originally indestructible 天锤 now looked even more terrifying.
Magneto used the method of accelerating electromagnetic cannon to accelerate the 天锤. This perfect combination of magic and scientific power was about to be launched.
