Reborn with Steve Stand

Even Fang Mo himself did not expect the characteristics of the Eternal Life Gem to be so unreasonable.

After Laevatein, he conducted several new tests. No matter how much Fang Mo tried—using light power, death sigh, ghost arts, sacrifices, ninjutsu, atomic flint—Jason would quickly revive with full health.

Except for the fundamental erasure ability of the Gluttony Module, Fang Mo did not know how to kill the holder of the Eternal Life Gem.

He had tried dissecting the other party, but the result was that the Eternal Life Gem had disappeared, likely already fused with the other party. Conventional methods could not extract it.

And so, Fang Mo soon laughed brightly.

"Heh heh heh, this Eternal Life Gem is truly a good thing."

Unlike Fang Mo's joy, Jason was on the verge of a mental breakdown. He never thought anyone could be more brutal than his father, Stryker. At this moment, seeing Fang Mo's smile, he began trembling uncontrollably.

"Wha-what do you want to do..."

Jason's face showed terror, his teeth chattering from excessive shaking.

Fang Mo smiled and patted Jason on the shoulder: "You're not the one in trouble, are you? Aren't you still alive and well?"

"Please... spare me..."

"How about this, I'll ask you a question."

Fang Mo touched his chin, seemingly thinking, then asked Jason: "What can be divided by 5? A. Integers ending in 0, B. Integers ending in 5, C. Your Mom, D. Jason Stryker."

"..."

Jason was stunned by the question.

But at that moment, Fang Mo suddenly waved his hand, and Jason floated uncontrollably, his limbs and head feeling a strong tearing force.

"Let me introduce these five horses: Gold Ship, Purple Moon, Han Jinlun, Mrs. Stryker, and... oh, sorry, you don't have a horse, so we can remove the option of Mrs. Stryker."

Jason did not understand what Fang Mo was saying, but fear from deep within made him want to beg for mercy: "Don't..."

But before he could finish, he was torn apart in mid-air.

Of course, it didn't take long for Jason's body to regenerate from the head.

Fang Mo then casually waved, pulling Jason back into his hands, cheerfully grabbing his neck and asking: "Do you know what day it is today?"

"Wha-what..."

Jason groaned in pain.

"Today is the first day you offended the most vengeful prince of joy in the world. In the fancy death challenge, you've been killed 21 times and earned the ultimate fool achievement. Any thoughts?"

Fang Mo grabbed Jason's neck, shaking him like a rattle while asking.

"I..."

Jason felt dizzy and couldn't speak.

Soon, Fang Mo got bored and began setting up a dark ritual altar nearby.

He had two purposes for setting up the altar.

The first was to resurrect that scumbag Stryker. After all, Jason had died many times, and it seemed unfair that Stryker had only died once. Even if he didn't want to arrange a father-son combination, he should at least teach them a lesson, demonstrating techniques like the Marquis of Yi's roasting.

As for the second purpose, it was to remove the Eternal Life Gem from Jason.

Through previous tests, Fang Mo knew this gem was a treasure, so he certainly wanted to keep it for his own use.

As for Jason...

There were many ways to ensure he stayed alive. Given his past behavior, he was unworthy of the Eternal Life Gem. A healing dagger would suffice, allowing for continuous torture, much like the flaying man and puppet demon from the Chainsaw Man instance.

In short, he took action.

With the dark revival ritual activated, Stryker soon stood up, confused.

Naturally, Fang Mo did not spare him either. The details will not be described here, but in the end, Stryker couldn't hold it together and started cursing everything around him.

Not only did he target Fang Mo, but also his mutant son Jason, calling them all madmen. He also cursed the world and God, questioning why mutants existed.

In response to Stryker's cursing, the kind-hearted Fang Mo did not use words to retaliate.

He quietly folded his hands together and summoned a giant meteor in front of him.

Even Stryker, upon seeing this godlike power, stood dumbfounded, then was crushed to pieces.

It's worth mentioning that the power of this Tengai Shinsei was indeed immense.

When this object smashed into the ground, the entire land surged like the surface of water, instantly shattering the surrounding ground plates and causing the mountains to collapse simultaneously.

The massive kinetic impact triggered a chain reaction.

Dust and rock vapor filled the sky, and underground lava was forcibly ejected. This was followed by a series of relentless earthquakes, creating natural disasters of all kinds. Not just the area around Lake Alkali, but at least half of the United States was affected to varying degrees.

It's fortunate that Lake Alkali was far from the Yellowstone Volcano.

If Fang Mo had thrown the meteorite into Yellowstone Park, the ancestors' spirits of the Native Americans might have been rejoicing by now.

After throwing the meteorite.

Fang Mo found the resurrected Jason.

Using the time-reversal ritual, he successfully extracted the Eternal Life Gem from Jason's body.

Considering the high-intensity torment Jason had to endure, Fang Mo thought for a moment and then directly plunged a healing dagger into him. Of course, the excruciating pain from the tearing and healing made Jason scream uncontrollably, as he was a normal person, unlike Biden, who was loosely composed; pain was a normal reaction.

After this.

Fang Mo studied the method of making a Zhi.

He had all the necessary materials at hand, so he tinkered a bit and succeeded.

Considering Jason's regenerative ability, Fang Mo brought in a small cluster of Shoggoths to specifically gnaw at him. To make Jason's days feel like years, Fang Mo also planted a Time Tree beside him and crafted a delicious Tinker's weapon out of feces and pig iron, stuffing it into Jason's mouth as an infinite food source.

When everything was ready, Fang Mo studied for a while.

He finally managed to seal all these chaotic items into an Ender Sword.

After sealing Jason, the sword's appearance also changed, becoming a long sword with a bright silver mirror-like surface. It looked less like a solid and more like mercury, with ripples occasionally appearing on the reflective blade.

Just as Fang Mo had expected.

The sword, after sealing Jason, the master of illusions, also possessed his mutant ability to create illusions.

And this ability turned out to be surprisingly strong.

Fang Mo tested it a bit and temporarily couldn't find anyone who could directly see through the illusion.

Even Ancient One was affected by this ability. However, due to her extensive experience in battling dimensional demons, she quickly used spells to create a new sense for herself, thus breaking the illusion.

After a series of tests.

Fang Mo found that this thing was practically an enhanced version of Kyoka Suigetsu.

Kyoka Suigetsu was Aizen's Zanpakuto's Shikai, creating illusions by manipulating the five senses.

However, Fang Mo's sword was even more powerful than Kyoka Suigetsu. It didn't need to perform any release; it could activate the illusion directly, and its intensity was quite outrageous. Even Fang Mo himself accidentally fell for it before.

To be honest, Fang Mo still doesn't know why he got tricked.

He guessed it might be something to do with the judgment system.

Normally, Jason's illusion abilities would work by affecting the brain's senses, considering he could control some mutants' cerebrospinal fluid.

But the problem was...

Fang Mo's body was completely empty inside.

Though it sounded strange to say he had no brain, it was the truth. Fang Mo's body was entirely a void of chaos, without a brain. Normally, Jason's abilities shouldn't affect him at all, right?

He thought he was immune.

But unexpectedly, he still saw the illusion.

After thinking for a while, Fang Mo figured the only explanation might be his subconscious mind, which then caused a bug in the judgment system.

For example, Fang Mo felt like he had a brain.

So he got tricked.

It makes sense, though. Even though his body is a void, Fang Mo recalled that he could defecate and ejaculate... which indeed might be related to his subconscious.

Like his little partner.

Subconsciously believing he would get drunk if he drank too much, and then actually getting drunk.

But now that Jason had been made into a sword, Fang Mo didn't worry too much, just needed to be cautious of illusionists in the future.

With this in mind, he exhaled deeply: "Hmm, from now on, I'll call it Cotton Moon."

After dealing with Jason.

Fang Mo thought for a moment and didn't immediately return to X Academy.

Although torturing Jason had vented a lot of his anger, the constant fighting between mutants and humans in this world was genuinely annoying.

Of course, fighting was possible.

But the problem was that mutants clearly couldn't hold on in the long run.

Fang Mo had seen all the original movies. Except for the later "Dark Phoenix," which he didn't get to see due to his early demise, he had seen almost all of them, including the future timelines like "Apocalypse," "Dark Phoenix," and the old timelines like "The Last Stand" and "Days of Future Past."

And no matter the new timeline.

Or the old timeline.

The fate of mutants in the movie universe was very tragic.

The old timeline in the movie universe corresponded to Magneto's ideology, where humans and mutants were irreconcilable. In the old trilogy, Magneto, Erik, was always dedicated to eliminating humans and creating a new world solely for mutants.

However, the ultimate response from the official story was "Days of Future Past."

"Days of Future Past" depicted the consequences of Magneto's extreme ideology, leading humans to plan to completely eliminate the mutant threat.

Then they developed a kind of robot called Sentinels. Eventually, these robots went out of control, and many humans were also affected. The world was on the brink of destruction, and the X-Men tried to reset the timeline by sending Wolverine, Logan, back in time to stop the creator of the Sentinel program, Bolivar Trask, and the young Magneto.

This was the conclusion of the old world, with both mutants and humans wiped out by the Sentinels.

Also marking the failure of Magneto's extreme ideology.

As for the new timeline... it didn't look much better, at least not optimistic so far. Although he hadn't seen "Dark Phoenix," he heard many important characters died, including Mystique.

Then there's the standalone alternate universe story, "Logan."

This was a bit strange since the first two films of the Wolverine trilogy seemed to correspond to the old timeline, but the official announcement stated "Logan" was an independent timeline.

In "Logan," the ideology of Professor X failed.

No other mutants appeared in the film, not even Magneto. Based on the dialogue, it's clear they were probably all dead.

Although there wasn't a Sentinel program in this timeline.

Humans researched genetically modified food.

To eliminate the X-gene in mutants, they distributed genetically modified food globally, possibly a type of GM corn. Even if one didn't eat corn, snacks, corn syrup, and food additives covered the entire world, causing mutant abilities to gradually fade unknowingly.

Including Wolverine, Logan, whose healing factor was also fading.

During this time, Professor X developed dementia, becoming a troublesome old man needing care. Eventually, he was stabbed to death by Logan's clone.

Logan also died.

Stabbed to death with a large tree branch by his clone.

To be honest, when Fang Mo saw this, his fists clenched for three days. The plot was too tragic.

Notably, the person behind the genetic food plan in the new timeline seemed to have a connection with William Stryker... possibly the son of a scientist involved in the X-Weapon project. This guy really was a persistent enemy of mutants.

Remembering Stryker.

Fang Mo thought of all the future tragic events.

In the past, there was no choice. But now, he wanted to try changing the plot. After all, it was the old timeline, and if he failed, he could just restart the timeline.

So, Fang Mo quickly flew into space, heading to the Kuiper Belt, planning to transform into a rock-moving expert, pick a super-sized meteorite, and bring it back to give the world a huge surprise.
