Chapter 167: The Person Who Slacks Off

The three people assigned to the open space were, of course, because their abilities could not be unleashed within the narrow carriage.

Moreover, outside the carriage, aliens attempting to board the special train came in an endless stream from the sky and from the mountains and forests on both sides of the tracks.

The task of stopping these people from boarding the train was by no means easier than driving the enemies off the train.

Nightcrawler putting Professor X into the carriage ahead truly startled the soldiers guarding inside.

However, under Professor X's explanation, and Nightcrawler's return to the rear carriage to participate in the fight, these soldiers came to understand the situation they now faced.

The soldiers were now very clear: the strange noises outside the carriage were, nine times out of ten, aliens attempting to pry open the carriage's iron sheets to invade. Now, whenever anyone saw a hole where the iron sheet had been pried open, they would fire a full burst at that spot.

Selene's mental abilities were greatly diminished against the aliens, because the form of the aliens' mental consciousness differed vastly from humans; even Professor X could not comprehend everything upon first meeting them.

And Selene's ability to mislead was, against aliens who all used close-quarters hand-to-hand combat, even more nearly useless. So he simply stopped wasting this effort and relied solely on hand-to-hand combat to attack the aliens head-on. One could say he was the one fighting the hardest.

Yet Beast watched the Joker Super, who was clearly sitting in his seat pretending to be weak despite the suppression device having been deactivated. Without a second word, Beast extended his large hand, grabbed the other's head, and yanked the person down from the restraint chair.

"Oh my, a little less force. Blood may flow, the head may be severed, but the hairstyle must not be messed up! Don't ruin my look."

"The aliens are here; it's your turn."

Having said this, Beast originally intended to throw the Joker Super directly into the pile of enemies. However, ahead, Magneto was controlling a rifle and unleashing his divine power, leaving no space to throw the Joker Super unless he wanted to throw him onto his own people.

Very suddenly, the side sliding door of the train carriage was violently pulled open by someone, revealing a larger hole. Some aliens, who had not had time to select a human appearance for mimicry and thus appeared in their original forms, intended to rush in.

Beast, struck by a sudden inspiration, pinched the back of the Joker Super's neck with one hand and held the back of his head with the other, simply lifting the person toward the direction of the enemies.

In that instant of face-to-face contact, the Kryptonian's heat vision shot out, slicing the D'Bari directly in half!

It must be known that Cyclops's attack is essentially connecting his eyes to a special space, drawing unlimited energy from that space, and directing it to gush out. Furthermore, it is endowed with immense kinetic energy, forming impact force and destructive power.

In comparison, the Kryptonian's heat vision is another matter entirely; besides the kinetic energy capable of blasting enemies back, it also possesses a metaphysically unlimited high temperature.

Most enemies fell at the hurdle of high temperature. Therefore, in terms of cutting efficiency, Cyclops's optic blast is incomparable.

This is also why, when Cyclops uses his ability, most of the time he can only blast the D'Bari away, unless some unlucky soul chooses to endure it head-on. But the Kryptonian's heat vision directly slices people in half.

Facing this unexpectedly delightful attack, Beast, like holding a laser gun, kept lifting the back of the Joker Super's neck and shooting in different directions.

Not having a trigger was not a big problem; Beast, like polishing a bead, kept rubbing the dog head in his hand. And then heat vision would shoot out!

"Enough."

"Enough, already."

"Ah, aliens also have human rights!"

Breaking free from Beast's large hand, which was almost becoming addicted to the play, the Joker Super took out a comb from who-knows-where and began to tidy up his messy green pompadour. While cursing, he said:

"Damn it, is the top of the contempt chain in your hearts the chosen hero descendants, the Jews? Then come the white folks, the niggers, the people of color, and finally the mutants.

"Those damn aliens are even below the mutants; that's what gave you an extra pair of dog guts, daring to polish my head and mess up my hair. Ah~, what can be endured, what cannot be endured. I'm going to defect, go help them, and fight for the aliens' human rights!"

Beast, showing an expression of guilt, was just about to explain something to the Joker Super, who had moved to the open side door of the carriage and was facing off against the mutants, when he saw yet another alien preparing to climb into the train carriage outside, a pair of large feet kicking straight at the back of the Kryptonian's head.

This kick, inexplicably, landed on the Kryptonian's head and also kicked away the comb the Joker Super was using to comb his hair.

Looking at the comb that had fallen into a thousand pieces, the Joker Super shouted in sorrow and grief: "Ah, my poor Cleopatra I. Do you know? It has no heir. Without it, what will become of my hairstyle?"

Clearly, this fellow who had luckily kicked down the Kryptonian upon entering had not learned Earth's language and did not know the Joker Super was grieving, strictly forbidding anyone from interrupting his sorrowful mood.

He shouted as if to show off, thinking this would intimidate the Earth natives.

Unexpectedly, the Joker Super, having taken a deep breath, puffed his chest out two or three times its size, causing several shirt buttons to burst. He turned his head and roared fiercely at the alien who had entered!

This sound was not a noise human ears could receive. An air cannon compressed to the extreme, combined with the effect of ultra-high-frequency vibration, smashed the alien who had killed the comb into powder!

Even the aliens behind who intended to follow the same path to invade the train carriage were affected by this air cannon. Wherever it touched, it shattered; only the broken remains of their bodies, following their original momentum, fell into the carriage.

The Joker Super left two lines of tears, smearing his cross-star eyeshadow, looking like two streams of bloody tears. He gritted his teeth and said viciously, "The grudge of killing the comb cannot be shared with the same sky. You must pay with your lives for my Cleopatra I!"

The Joker Super, preparing to go on a killing spree, picked up a rifle left behind by the American soldiers from the carriage floor and, with a fierce momentum, began shooting at the aliens!

One could say the posture was a perfect hundred points, but the killing power approached zero...

Magneto, who had glimpsed everything from the corner of his eye, still only wanted to say that one sentence: "Are you serious?"

Even Selene, who had temporarily broken free from the entanglement thanks to the Joker Super's earlier display of divine power, said, "Do you want to put down the gun in your hand? Just using your mouth is enough."

Hearing this, the Joker Super became displeased. He put down the gun, propped it up like a cane, and said, "To let a man do it with just a mouth, do you know how great an insult that is? It's as if you're saying that apart from my mouth, the rest of my body is useless."

"Is this guy making a dirty joke?" Selene looked at her own boss in disbelief and asked.

Now it was Magneto's turn to become impatient. He cursed, "If you don't want to fight, then get off the train!"

"Alright, received." The Joker Super was just about to jump off the train when Beast grabbed him by the back of the collar again and lifted him back from mid-air.

The Joker Super said helplessly, "Buddy, is this necessary? Lifting me like a kitten, I have a face too."

Beast was just about to explain something when, unexpectedly, the Joker Super in his hand blocked a disaster for him. A plasma cannon shot happened to hit the Joker Super, exploding into a cloud of scattered plasma flow.
