Chapter 84: 16. Serious

"Bang"
"boom"
The collision sounded constantly in the underground facilities of Xavier Talent Academy, and Saber, who was put on a casual outfit, stood in front of a special writer with a fighting attitude, punching in silence with a punch In front of the sandbags, after each punch, a data stunned ordinary people will appear on the screen next to it.
Qin stood aside holding a record board and recorded the beating data in detail. Professor Charles sat on the side, sitting beside him, curiously looking at the little girl Catherine around the silver-white building, and changed her clothes. Agent May sat farther away.
Catherine was pleased to see Sabre again, but the little girl's attention at this time was not on the sweaty Saber, but quietly looked at another guy standing beside her, rummaging through a pile of records.
A blue monster! The blue furry monster in a fairy tale!
Well, this is just the private name of the little girl. Standing here is Professor X’s close comrade-in-arms. He is currently a powerful mutant of the chairman of the
Variants Council
in the Congress, Henry Philip named
The Beast
. McCay, he has another name called Hank, and his appearance is probably the most peculiar of all people here.
His skin is blue, but it’s not really that much, because the skin of the magic-shaped woman Rui Wen that Cyber ​​had seen before is also blue. The most striking part of Hank is that he is covered with mane Hair, blue mane, but apart from this, no matter the outline of his face or his appearance, it is no different from humans.
He looks shaggy, tall and tall, at least above 2.15. For Catherine, he is an out-and-out giant, but because this blue hairy monster is seriously wearing a sophisticated black suit, he also carries a black frame The glasses, combined with the distinctive temperament of the researcher, so there seems to be an unexpected... well, cute.
The little girl wanted to touch Hank’s mane, but she was an obedient and sensible child, so when the adults cast their eyes on Cyber, she held her godfather and godmother to her. The teddy bear is very happy to play, but she will also look at the silent Cyber ​​from time to time.
The keen sense of the child felt that Cyber ​​is not in a good mood now.
"How? Hank, can you see anything?"
Professor Charles gently waved his hands, and the two cups of hot tea on the table floated in the air, slowly moving to the hands of Catherine and Hank. The little girl put down the doll and curiously looked at the tea cup floating in front of her eyes. She even stretched out Shot, grabbed under the teacup, but nothing.
She took the teacup and said politely to Professor Charles,
"thank you."
At the age of professors, human habits are still affecting this powerful mutant leader. He likes children very much, especially children who are sensible like Catherine. He extended his hand kindly, touched on Catherine’s small head, and then looked at To the beast Hank who said nothing.
Don't look at the rude appearance of the blue hairy monster Hank, he is a real researcher in essence. In the chaotic era 40 years ago, he and Professor Charles and Magneto prevented the world from almost destroying the world. The war then established a new order of mutant society from scratch.
He was a true genius, and a brave warrior. The least-played Saber Victor, the sword-toothed tiger, was not so arrogant in front of him.
"call…"
Hank put aside the record in his hand, then reached out and took off his eyes, and said to Professor Charles,
"Obviously, this is a phenomenon similar to "Awakening of Abilities", as Eric did, you and I all know that when we are unable to manipulate abilities perfectly, we cannot be called a true "Awakening." ."
The beast’s gaze turned to Cyber, who was furiously punching over there, and he lowered it with a hint of stereotyped voice,
"Saibo thinks that his ability was awakened a month ago, which is wrong. Actually, I think his ability was truly awakened today. Everything before was just for the preparation of this awakening, including that need. Self-healing that consumes body energy, including that brief boost of strength, is part of this preparation."
Speaking, he moved his wrists, while organizing the language, while speaking his conclusions,
"When he was attacked by Victor's and tried to die with him, Cyber's ability really began to awaken. Look at the data he now records. It is 3 times more powerful than ordinary people. Level B self-healing. , A weakened version of beast perception, bone hardening, tell me, Charles, who do you think of when you see these abilities?"
Professor Charles pursed his lips, his eyes narrowed,
"Victor?"
"Yes, Sabertooth Victor!"
The beast nodded. He reached out and stopped the boxing cyber. He knocked on his temple again. "Almost completely inherited the ability of Victor, but there was a serious weakening. If I didn’t If you remember correctly, the recorded data of the saber-toothed tiger should be 7 times the power of ordinary people, S-level self-healing, super beast perception, and bone alienation."
The blue Hank showed a smile that could scare the child,
"My guess is that in the explosion, both Cyber ​​and Victor's bodies were shattered, but he devoured a part of Victor's flesh... er, it seemed a bit disgusting, but the truth is that he Inherited part of Victor's ability, and then copied it on his body, as he said, he needs to add a lot of energy after each battle."
"There is no doubt that his ability has never appeared in the history of mutants... devoured!"
Hank leaned back in his chair, his weight rattling the chair, and he watched with great interest Cyber, who was approaching them.
"I'm most curious now is there any end to his swallowing ability? If not... that would be terrible."
For a time, both Professor Charles and Hank were silent, until Cyber ​​sat between them, reached out and knocked on Catherine's head, and then hugged the little girl who held her head and held her mouth. After reaching his lap, he reached out to say hello to Hank sitting on the side,
"Hi, man, your mane is awesome! It looks very powerful with your skin!"
Cyber ​​always has a special ability to hate the opponent in a word. In the face of this familiar way of greeting, Hank snarled his teeth like a beast and snorted from his nostrils.
"Boy, are you itchy?"
"Uh"
Cyber ​​raised his fists subconsciously, but a moment later, he relaxed somewhat awkwardly, and then scratched his head, asking Hank and Professor Charles,
"Two, why do I occasionally not control my fist now? Is it because of some nerve damage?"
"Humph"
Hank scoffed at the problem, but he finally explained patiently,
"This is a normal phenomenon. Beast perception will help you distinguish some subconscious threats. Just like beasts such as tigers and wolves, there is always a unique prediction of the coming of danger. Your beast perception is a weakened version, otherwise just The moment I show hostility, you will pounce on me and fight with me."
Professor Charles added while drinking tea,
"So for mutants with beast perception, it’s hard to control this instinctive danger prediction and it takes a long time to exercise. The vast majority of the mutants who have awakened the beast perception in history have died quickly. In the conflict with others, because they can feel the maliciousness of others, to a certain extent, the weakened version of the beast perception is a good thing for you, at least it will avoid many unnecessary battles."
"Oh, is it so?"
Cybermoor held his chin and said expectantly, "But I think the full version sounds more powerful...yeah, professor, have you analyzed the results? What the am I capable of?"
Hank and Professor Charles glanced at each other, and finally the professor revealed the answer,
"It's swallowing, cyber, you can swallow the material that enters your body, and then transform into a beneficial existence, such as eating a lot of food, will make your wounds heal faster, such as swallowing the material that enters your body. Toxins will keep you safe, this time it will be the same. You have devoured the flesh and blood of the saber-toothed tiger, and you have gained a very similar ability."
"Uh…"
There was an embarrassing and disgusting expression on Cyber's face, "I eat a part of him? It's disgusting!"
"No, it's not eating! It's eating, it's different!"
Beast Hank glared at him,
"Your description is terrible. It successfully dispelled my desire for lunch. Also, I want to warn you, kid, don't think you can try something weird with this ability. I don't want to see you change. Become an anorexic or ogre...remember, your swallowing won't succeed every time."
Cyber ​​just wanted to refute, Gree, who came over with a pile of materials, also said,
"Hanke is right, Cyber, part of your report on your abilities has been sorted out. Now I want to tell you something you need to pay attention to so you don't die in advance."
Qin took a piece of paper from the material and wrote it, coughed, and read,
"First of all, your phagocytosis is limited. In the hemodialysis I just did, I found that your cells can withstand the highest to weak to moderate toxins. They are not resistant to corrosive liquids. That is, if You try to drink a cup of sulfuric acid, you will die!"
Hearing this news, Cyber ​​pouted his lips, but instead of refuting, he continued to listen to Qin's story. The latter reached out and brushed his long burgundy hair and continued,
"But the good news is that even the deadly toxin, after being dissolved in your body, will be slowly penetrated and eliminated by your ability, but in the process, your physical fitness will be reduced to a minimum, similar to ordinary Rejection reaction when a person is sick, if this happens, you must be prepared in advance, because you are the most vulnerable at this time, if you do not have enough energy supplement, you are likely to be tortured for a long time, It may even cause some damage to your body."
"This is good news, which means that I don't have to worry about my opponent killing me with venom in the future, right?"
Cyber's smiling eyes narrowed, and Qin thought for a while, then nodded.
"Then your self-healing ability, B-level self-healing means you can ignore most cold weapon attacks, even if you cut off your arms or legs, it will slowly recover, but this process will also make you become Weak, and it should be noted that the bullet is still fatal to you. If it hits your heart, you will be seriously injured, if it hits your head..."
Qin's expression became serious, and she increased her tone,
"you will die."
Cyber ​​was silent, he nodded, then turned his head to look at Hank,
"Brother Hank, the self-healing saber-toothed tiger... what grade?"
"S grade!"
Hank drank the water from the teacup. He stretched out and shook in front of the unsightly cyber. "He is the only 2 S-class regenerators we have discovered so far. , We suspect that his ability has gone beyond the concept of self-healing to another level."
"what?"
Cyber ​​asked subconsciously, Hank closed his eyes and spit out a word, "I will never die!"
"This... how is this possible?!"
As an Oriental, Cyber ​​is too familiar with this word. He can’t believe that there is really a concept of immortality in this world. Upon seeing his surprise, Professor Charles chuckled and added,
"Victor was born in the 19th century, Cyber. He has lived for more than 200 years. Don't worry about your failures. In fact, Victor is already one of the most difficult enemies in the current mutant society. , One of the strongest beta-class mutants."
Cyber ​​took a deep breath to calm his emotions, his fingers struck on the table, and finally, he looked at Gree Chin standing in front of his eyes,
"What about me? Beauty, in your booklet, will I still be a poor Ypsilon mutant?"
"Of course... no, congratulations on becoming a Beta-level mutant. In addition, the little girl next to you is Alpha-level. Compared with you who is not stable, she is more like a perfect mutant." End of content -->
