Reborn with Steve Stand

"... What the fuck?"

Seeing those chibi avatars in the distance, Fang Mo was momentarily stunned.

The other avatars were fine, but the distinctive square white nose was too recognizable. Fang Mo immediately identified it as an Iron Golem.

And since he recognized the Iron Golem.

Fang Mo could roughly guess what was going on.

In the world of X-Men, Fang Mo had only ever brought out one Iron Golem, the one he gave to Erik before.

Now that this Iron Golem appeared here, it was clear that Magneto... Erik had also arrived. This stubborn guy always claimed to be at odds with Charles, but clearly, his actions were sincere. Upon hearing that Charles had been captured, he rushed over to rescue him.

"What's going on?"

While Fang Mo was staring at the mini-map, Logan couldn't help but ask, "What did you see?"

Hearing Logan's question, Fang Mo waved his hand and said, "He's probably here to save Charles. After all, those two are quite the old pair."

"Magneto?"

Logan frowned, "You mean that Magneto?"

"Yes, Erik..."

Darwin's expression also changed slightly upon hearing this, "It's true. Although Erik has always been an enemy of the X-Men, he is always the first to stand up whenever Charles is in trouble."

"What a mess..."

Logan, suffering from amnesia, couldn't help but complain, "So, are they actually in some kind of relationship?"

"Yes, exactly."

Fang Mo immediately agreed provocatively, "I can prove it. Charles was paralyzed by Erik."

Logan turned to look at Darwin.

"Please, just believe it..."

Darwin, constrained by his abilities, could only wipe his face in frustration.

"I don't believe it."

Logan wasn't having any of it and retorted before asking, "So what do we do now? If Magneto really is here to save Charles... should we cooperate with him?"

"Ignore him, let them handle it themselves."

Fang Mo waved his hand dismissively. If he remembered correctly, Erik had his own ulterior motives for rescuing Charles this time.

Fang Mo was quite clear on the plot of X-Men 2: Stryker had discovered the secret of the Cerebro, kidnapped Charles, and hypnotized him to use his powers to kill all mutants on Earth.

Magneto appeared to be rescuing Charles, but he actually had his own plan.

He intended to use his hypnotized friend to shift the target to all humans, making Charles use Cerebro to kill all ordinary humans.

"Is that so?"

Logan nodded at Fang Mo's explanation and didn't ask further questions.

However, at this moment, the woman opposite seemed to have made a decision, slowly adopting a combat stance.

"Hmm?"

Logan noticed her movements and clenched his fists, extending his Adamantium claws.

"Need help?"

Darwin asked.

"No need."

Logan's expression was serious, "This person... she escaped from the Academy before. This time, I want to deal with her myself. Maybe it will help me remember more."

"Alright then."

Darwin nodded, not pressing the issue.

Without further words, the battle began, and Logan charged at her like a fierce wolf, engaging her in combat.

Meanwhile.

Fang Mo wandered around the lab.

He tentatively touched the equipment, hoping for luck, and to his surprise, the system notification appeared.

[System Notification: New module characteristics detected, research will grant download permissions.]

"...What?"

Fang Mo was taken aback by the system notification. He couldn't understand what module these experimental devices could unlock.

But despite his confusion.

He didn't stop what he was doing.

If he was originally just casually fiddling, Fang Mo became serious now. He even stuck his fingers into the crucible containing molten adamantium, fearing he might miss any chance to unlock the module.

In the end, his efforts paid off.

As Logan and Yukiko's battle reached a fever pitch, Fang Mo successfully activated the download permission for the module.

[System Notification: After researching the concepts of 'Mechanical Prosthesis,' 'Modification Blueprint,' 'Alloy Skeleton,' and 'Neural Chip,' you have obtained the download permission for a new module.]

[System Notification: Mechanical Modification Expansion (ReWIRED) module is starting to download.]

[System Notification: Mechanical Modification Expansion (ReWIRED) download completed. Do you want to load it?]

"...Hmm?"

Hearing the module name from the system, Fang Mo was momentarily stunned.

The system's explanation was quite clear: the unlocked module was an adjunct to the mechanical modification module.

The problem was that Fang Mo wasn't even familiar with the mechanical modification module itself, let alone its adjunct modules. He had never heard of this ReWIRED module. Clearly, it seemed useless to him, though perhaps Xiao Yao might like it?

Speaking of Xiao Yao...

"By the way, can this mechanical modification install an artificial uterus for Steve?"

Fang Mo, touching his chin, started to daydream: "If those tactical dolls can have reproductive modules... why can't my Steve?"

"Well, forget it."

Shaking his head, Fang Mo stopped pondering: "Let's consider it a free lucky block."

Clearing his mind, Fang Mo focused again on the battlefield ahead.

Logan, being the protagonist, had enough strength to defeat his enemies even with his originally lackluster combat power, and now it was noticeably easier after his enhancement.

Although the woman also had regenerative abilities, which resulted in an endless exchange of blows with Logan, he suddenly had an epiphany and started using the surrounding experimental equipment. Using sheer strength, he overpowered her and then grabbed a syringe, injecting it into her body.

As the syringe was pressed, molten adamantium flowed into her bloodstream.

Within seconds, her entire body was filled with adamantium, and she quickly turned into a solid statue.

"Phew... it's done." Wiping the blood off himself, Logan turned to the others.

"What about your memory?"

Fang Mo asked, seizing the opportunity: "How's the recovery going?"

"I remembered some things, but not much."

Logan retracted his claws, frowning slightly: "I seem to recall what Stryker did, as well as my brother and... wife. They're all bad memories."

"It seems you've indeed suffered a lot over the years."

Hearing this, Darwin looked at Logan with some sympathy and, thinking of comforting him, said: "But I remember an old saying from an ancient Eastern country: 'Endure the hardest hardships to become the greatest person.' Logan, perhaps these hardships will make you stronger."

"What nonsense!"

Before Darwin could finish, Fang Mo suddenly couldn't help but shout, startling everyone present.

"Did I say something wrong?"

Darwin scratched his head, and the next second, his ability suddenly activated without warning: "Uh, you're right. Fang Mo, you seem to come from there, why don't you comfort Logan?"

"The saying we have is actually 'You are what you eat.'"

Fang Mo looked at Logan with a serious and confident tone: "So, enduring hardships won't make you great... you need to eat people."

"That's ridiculous."

Logan facepalmed: "I almost believed you just now."

"Really... You don't believe me?" Fang Mo raised an eyebrow and turned to Darwin: "Old Darwin, cooperate with me here!"

"How should I cooperate..."

Darwin instinctively wanted to refuse, but suddenly, his Omega-level adaptive ability kicked in: "Uh... why isn't the vampire in the office afraid of the sun?"

"Hahaha!!!"

Fang Mo burst into laughter.

"..."

Logan didn't know what to say, just rubbing his temples.

"Actually, this isn't that bad."

After the action concluded, Fang Mo quickly brought the conversation back on track. Smiling, he patted Logan's shoulder and said, "If you want, I can arrange for either brothers or wives for you."

"...Let's talk about it later."

Logan noncommittally replied, "For now, let's focus on rescuing Charles."

"Oh, then let's go."

Hearing this, Fang Mo nodded and then pointed to the wall on the right. "I just checked the map. Charles should be over here."

"But that's a wall?"

The Nightcrawler, who usually had a low presence, couldn't help but say.

However, just as he said this, the wall made a 'crack' sound, and a neat square hole appeared.

"What wall?"

Fang Mo turned to look at the Nightcrawler.

"Never mind."

The Nightcrawler shrank back, thinking it best to stay quiet.

Led by Fang Mo, the group walked straight for a few minutes. Just as they were about to reach their destination, a strange surge of psychic power suddenly burst forth from ahead.

"Ugh..."

Everyone froze in place.

"What...is happening?"

Logan felt as if countless steel needles were piercing his brain, causing him to collapse uncontrollably, veins bulging on his forehead. "What's...going...on..."

"Ugh, ah!!!"

The Nightcrawler also clutched his head and screamed in pain.

"Damn it... it's the Professor."

Darwin managed to withstand the attack somewhat, kneeling on the ground. His head constantly morphed, turning into stone and then into metal, seemingly trying to resist or adapt to Charles' psychic assault. "It looks like he's attacking us psychically. We have to stop him!"

"Fang..."

Logan instinctively wanted to call out to Fang Mo.

But the next second, without any warning, the stabbing pain in their brains suddenly disappeared.

"...Huh?"

Everyone felt strange.

"Move forward quickly. Something feels off."

Logan, realizing something, quickly shouted to Fang Mo, "If Charles were really controlled, he wouldn't suddenly stop the psychic attack."

"Oh, okay."

Fang Mo nodded.

Honestly, he didn't expect Stryker to act so quickly. Perhaps he was desperate and planned to use Charles against them.

Thinking of this, he directed Steve to switch to the atomic flint.

This tool was incredibly efficient. With a casual wave, Steve instantly created a three-meter-tall passage in front of them, prompting Logan and the others to rush forward in apparent urgency.

They ran forward for about ten seconds.

Soon, they reached the end of the passage.

The space suddenly opened up, revealing a large spherical room with a complex, sophisticated device in the center and a metal bridge connecting to a nearby gate.

It resembled the Cerebro in X-Mansion, though much more dilapidated, covered in rust.

Logan looked across the bridge.

Immediately, he saw Professor X, Charles, in his wheelchair.

Charles seemed dazed, wearing a helmet to amplify his psychic powers, completely unaware of Logan and the others' arrival.

Notably, Charles was not alone on the metal bridge.

Logan quickly noticed another person.

A frail man, also in a wheelchair, even more incapacitated than Charles, with several incomprehensible metal tubes attached to his body.

While the group was observing him, the man seemed to notice them too.

He didn't move, but his heterochromatic eyes shifted suddenly, staring eerily at them.

"This..."

Logan's combat instincts kicked in. He realized the man must be a mutant and was likely preparing to use his powers. Instinctively, Logan wanted to defend himself, but before he could act, a terrifying, bone-chilling killing intent surged from behind him.

"You really want to die."

Fang Mo's almost emotionless words sent a chill down Logan's spine.
