Chapter 349 Phoenix Possession
As Iron Man charged toward Phoenix in his Anti-Phoenix armor, Captain America clearly remembered that there were two people behind him: Hope and Connors.
But at this moment, Phoenix was destroyed by Tony's Disintegration Ray, and the violent impact leveled the lunar surface. Captain America Rogers' first reaction was to search for any missing crew members.
He discovered that Connors was missing, and Natasha, the "Black Widow," was also nowhere to be found.
"Oh my god."
The Anti-Phoenix armor hovered about seven or eight kilometers above the moon. Tony Stark looked down at the moon, which was as smooth as a mirror. The few smudges on the surface were the surviving Avengers and mutants.
"This is Stark. Did I kill the Phoenix?"
Iron Man asked, his expression filled with doubt and surprise.
There were twinkling lights around him, which seemed to be the remnants of the phoenix after it was destroyed, and they were slowly falling downwards under the influence of the moon's gravity.
To Captain America and his crew on the moon, it appeared as if snow was falling from above.
"Hawkeye, Wolverine, Ant-Man—"
Captain America had no time to admire the rare beauty of the moon. After confirming that the Thing, Hulk, and Colossus were still fighting in the distance, almost all the way to the far side of the moon, he immediately began searching for the remaining Avengers.
After checking, Captain America finally confirmed that Black Widow Natasha had disappeared, and Connors was also nowhere to be found. Only the severed hand that was initially broken by Cyclops remained as a trace of Connors' existence.
Of everyone present, Hawkeye and Black Widow had the worst physical abilities, while Captain America had been injected with the Super Soldier Serum. Apart from their superb combat skills and espionage techniques, they were just ordinary people.
But now Hawkeye is still alive, Black Widow has disappeared, and even Connors, who could stop a passenger plane in flight with his bare hands and restore a building in the city in an instant, has disappeared.
Captain America collapsed to the ground, but quickly rallied and walked toward his comrades who were lying on the ground.
The mutants fared better; everyone survived unharmed, but they also discovered that Connors had disappeared.
The White Queen panicked immediately. From both the mutant's perspective and her own, she found it hard to accept that Connors had disappeared so quietly.
But before she could even show any sadness on her face, "The Secret Guest" tugged at her hand and pointed to the sky above her head.
The white snowflakes that had been slowly drifting down from above began to change. A vibrant orange-red quickly devoured the white, and the snowflakes transformed into flames that swirled down. "Laser Eyes," lying on his back on the ground, watched the orange-red flames fall, a glimmer of hope returning to his eyes.
"Friends, the Phoenix hasn't disappeared! Hope? Where's Hope?"
Hope sat next to him, staring blankly at where Connors "Kusama Man" had originally been.
"Hope, pull yourself together! The Phoenix hasn't disappeared!"
"Cyclops," Scott crouched down, grabbed Hope's shoulders, and shook him vigorously.
Unfortunately, the girl with long orange hair did not react at all. She was feeling guilty for losing yet another life because of her, especially since it happened right before her eyes, which she simply could not accept.
The flames drifted in the sky, seemingly slowly, but in just a few words, they had already reached the top of everyone's heads.
The scattered phoenix flames coalesced like water droplets, forming five parts that hung above the heads of the five mutants besides Hope.
"No, the Phoenix Force was a gift from heaven, not from us—"
"Laser Eyes" looked up at the orange-red flames above his head in a panic.
He needs the complete "Phoenix Force" to resurrect Jean Grey, but if that power is divided into five parts, can it still resurrect Jean?
"Cyclops" Scott dared not gamble, but with "Phoenix" hovering above his head, he was unable to move, and the immense pressure felt like a mountain pressing down on him.
Unable to move his body, Cyclops still managed to turn his eyes to look at Captain America Rogers, who was covered in wounds and supporting Hawkeye.
"What tricks did you play?"
Captain America shook his head; he didn't know what the scene before him meant either.
The oppressive feeling gradually disappeared, and Cyclops was able to move his body slightly, as if the Phoenix Force had already accepted him.
"Since 'Phoenix' has chosen us, we will take her place and complete her mission until she is ready."
"Cyclops" Scott is also ready to be possessed by the Phoenix Force.
"Namor does not need this kind of power."
Namor frowned, and having just regained his freedom of movement, he swung his trident at the "Phoenix Power" above his head.
Magik was about to unleash her full power to fight one-fifth of the Phoenix when Connors' voice reached her ears from the edge of hell, causing her to give up the fight.
The White Queen also had no intention of inheriting the Phoenix herself, and Colossus only broke free from the soul deal with the evil god Celesto today, and he was also quite resistant to being possessed by the Phoenix.
In other words, apart from "Cyclops" Scott, who is determined to use "Phoenix" to revive Jean Grey, no one wants to become "Phoenix".
"Don't resist, welcome the 'Phoenix,' this is our mission!" Scott commanded his teammates.
As someone who was overjoyed to welcome the "phoenix," Scott was now engulfed in flames, the orange-red flames vaguely resembling the shape of the "phoenix."
His injuries healed rapidly, and the blood evaporated, but his battle suit remained intact in the flames.
"Scott, you're becoming more and more like a madman. You've been acting strange ever since Krakow."
Captain America clenched his fist, and with his other hand, he held the shield upright in front of him, assuming a fighting stance.
"That girl has her own decisions. Don't think you can scare me with some fire effects."
"Cyclops" Scott wore a mocking smile, feeling an unprecedented surge of power within him:
"Don't bother, Captain America. I've surpassed you, surpassed humanity, surpassed mutants."
"You can't stop the future, and you can't stop me."
Scott waved his hand, and flames immediately surged towards Captain America.
Seeing that they were about to be burned to a crisp—mainly Hawkeye, who was an ordinary person—Hope stood up and stood in front of the flames.
