"Never use your telepathy on me again."
On the island, Professor X felt weakened, his mental strength faltering. Suddenly, a vivid red bird appeared in his psychic world.
In its presence, Professor X's powers were completely nullified. The bird merged with his mind, becoming one with his consciousness.
Lancelot's voice echoed in Professor X's mental realm.
He realized then that he could never oppose Lancelot with his telepathy. Not even a simple mind link was possible.
Even if he forced his powers, the hidden Asuka Shackle within his psychic core would instantly activate, burning his doctrines to nothingness.
At that moment, Professor X fully understood Lancelot's power.
The rebel Lelouch.
Absolute dominion.
Professor X stared in terror as Lancelot floated above, surrounded by golden waves of energy, a sight so overwhelming it left him stunned.
While Professor X was lost in shock, Magneto did not stand idle. No one could stop him from killing Hei Huangxiao.
Magneto spread his hands. Behind Lancelot, a supersonic jet shot up and lunged toward him.
But the collision never came. The kinetic and magnetic energy carried by the jet was instantly absorbed the moment it touched Lancelot's body.
Lancelot turned and waved at the jet behind him, releasing the absorbed energy.
Boom.
The supersonic jets ahead were engulfed in flames, but astonishingly, the explosions never spread beyond the aircraft. It was as if an invisible hand controlled the energy.
As the jets disintegrated into powder, the flames, energy, and shockwaves surged toward Lancelot. Fire and heat—physical energy—were completely absorbed.
"Too bad," Lancelot muttered with a faint smile. "Next time you build your ideal form using 'Attention Grabber,' don't forget the 'Gambler' variant."
He had forgotten to incorporate the Kinetic Control of the Card Emperor into his ideal form.
Boom!
Lancelot looked down at Magneto, golden energy radiating from him, and dove at superhuman speed.
"Lancelot, save me!" Warpath Alex aimed his spear at Lancelot's back, firing a red energy wave. Lancelot glanced coldly at the young mutant and absorbed the energy, letting it cascade across his golden armor. The glow shifted from gold to a fiery gold-red, like an energy star suit.
Roar!
Beast Hank appeared, claws swinging toward Lancelot with incredible speed.
"Too slow." To Lancelot, Hank's attack was like a snail crawling. He combined Hei Huangxiao's mutant powers with Captain America's super-soldier physique. Lancelot's strength, reflexes, speed, and endurance were eight times greater than a normal human's.
He extended his right hand and caught Beast Hank's claw.
Boom.
With his left fist clenched, he delivered a powerful punch to Hank's head, sending him flying into the air.
Then, Lancelot opened his right hand, releasing a red energy sphere that slammed Magneto from midair into the ground.
"Is this all you've got?" Lancelot said with mild disappointment, his body slowly lowering.
Roar!
As Lancelot landed, Wolverine transformed into a five-meter-tall beast and charged.
Bang.
Lancelot didn't dodge. He didn't even use his Testosterone Absorption ability.
Shhh.
Wolverine's massive claws pierced through him. Low rumble.
He lifted Lancelot into the air, slamming him heavily onto the ground.
"Did we… kill Lancelot?" The X-Men froze, shocked to see his chest impaled.
Hei Huangxiao's eyes darkened. Red Devil Azazu and Flood Explorer flanked him.
"Maybe I should take some painkillers too," Lancelot murmured. Suddenly, he sat up, glancing at his wounds. Within moments, Wolverine's strike vanished, healed by Logan's own regenerative factor.
"Not too bad… a little pain, but manageable." Lancelot dusted himself off and stood.
"How… how are you still alive? I pierced your heart!" Wolverine stared, utterly shocked.
"Scram." Lancelot raised his hand. A gold-red energy cannon shot from his right hand, sending Wolverine flying tens of meters.
Whoosh.
Energy erupted from Lancelot's body along Wolverine's trajectory. A whip-like leg attack followed, kicking him like a ball.
Bang, bang, bang.
Lancelot's energy continued to explode, appearing ghost-like behind Wolverine to strike him again. On the island, the roar of energy was constant. Wolverine's massive form was soon riddled with impact craters.
Boom.
Lancelot punched Wolverine again. The force dented his skull, knocking him unconscious.
Now, two choices remained.
"Surrender… or die."
Floating above, Lancelot looked down at the X-Men and the Hellfire Club's Hei Huangxiao, issuing his final ultimatum.
