As long as Aaron wished, he could completely control both the Mutants and Inhumans. He could even raise an army of super-powered individuals at any time.
After many years, humans possessing the X-gene numbered at least tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions
Plus the Inhumans.
Even dual-gene holders.
Even if most of them would not have strong abilities, under the massive base number, Mutants of level three and above would definitely not be few.
"Speaking of which, perhaps I could open a free health checkup station, give everyone a checkup, and keep blood samples."
"Wouldn't that make it easy to acquire and smelt everyone's genes?"
Aaron had a sudden idea.
This matter, combined with Newborn, was entirely feasible.
People might not trust the government, but they would absolutely not doubt Aaron Industries, which could give them a second chance at life.
Free physical examinations also counted as a benefit. People who loved a good deal would definitely not miss this opportunity.
Thinking of this, Aaron called Norman.
After explaining the situation, Norman thought for a moment and gave a definitive answer.
"Boss, there's no problem with implementing this plan. Based on the current situation in the US, even the most basic physical examination costs at least several hundred dollars."
"If we can guarantee it under the name of Aaron Industries, at least half of the people will be willing to participate in this public welfare project."
"We can establish an Aaron Life Foundation, which can also help us legally avoid taxes."
"However, Boss, this project will cost at least tens of billions."
The labor cost in the US was too high.
A large-scale public welfare event like this, targeting the entire world, couldn't be pulled off without tens of billions.
Aaron said, "No matter how much it costs, get this done for me. Implement it as much as possible in every region and every country."
Norman immediately agreed after hearing this. He immediately arranged for people to start a new plan.
Aaron Industries was not short on money now. Many people were waving cash, coming to them to buy things.
The only trouble might be that this project would involve some sensitive topics. The implementation process might not be smooth.
Aaron understood, so he did not issue a death order.
Under a massive base number, a little more or a little less made no difference.
"When my strength is sufficient, I need to visit the World Forge where the Prime Celestial resides."
"That place gathers almost all the data and gene banks in the Universe, all good stuff."
"Hmm, and also Knowhere where the Collector is located."
The Marvel Universe had no shortage of all sorts of strange things.
Aaron's mind flashed with one black technology item or Divine Artifact after another.
...
When he returned to the room, he saw that Hela was already fully armed. She had changed into her black battle armor, with two necroswords at the ready.
"Where is Apocalypse?"
"Let's go fight the boss now."
Looking at the eager Hela, Aaron shook his head helplessly.
"Let's go, we're going to Egypt now."
This time, Aaron did not call Darcy and Jane. From the US to Egypt, it would take at least half a day by plane. There was no need.
However, he called Kitty, Anna, and Clarice. Jean was also called along.
The All-Seeing Eye activated, instantly traversing thousands of miles to locate Egypt.
He drew a circle with his right hand and a golden halo appeared.
"Let's go, we're going to meet Apocalypse." Aaron led the way, stepping in.
"Wait, Mr. Aaron, can we go?" Charles said, controlling Erik's body.
Mainly, Erik wanted to go, but under Aaron's powerful aura, he didn't dare to speak.
Charles, being understanding, spoke for him.
Of course, this was definitely not because he was also curious about the so-called Apocalypse.
Aaron replied without looking back, "Suit yourselves."
Passing through the golden portal, the group crossed thousands of miles to Egypt on the other side of the Earth.
Charles and Erik were both amazed by Aaron's ability.
Crossing half the Earth in an instant!
Even Azazel back then couldn't do that.
"Where do we go next?"
Aaron pointed to the golden desert not far away. "It's underground."
"Apocalypse is one of the oldest Mutants, born during the First Dynasty of Egypt."
"He can transfer his consciousness to other Mutants or humans, and acquire their abilities."
"Over the past few centuries, he has gained at least dozens of abilities through continuous consciousness transfer, thereby acquiring God-like powers."
"But during one consciousness transfer, mortals overturned the pyramid, forever sealing him underground."
At this point, Aaron looked at Hela. "Speaking of which, he's been imprisoned longer than you, sealed for at least four thousand years."
Hela frowned slightly. "So he and Odin are from the same era?"
"Interesting, I didn't expect such a powerful being on Earth. No wonder when we conquered Earth back then, there wasn't even a single powerful resistor."
Erik felt a slight chill after hearing this. Putting everything else aside, the fact that the other party had lived for five thousand years already put him eighteen streets behind.
"Five thousand years have passed, and Apocalypse is still alive?"
"It's not that easy to kill him." Aaron was speaking to both Erik and Hela.
Hela's strength was considerable, but Apocalypse was not weak either. Both possessed powerful healing abilities. Unless their bodies were destroyed at a cellular level at the fastest speed, it would be hard to kill them.
Otherwise, the two sides were more likely to remain in a stalemate forever.
Or one side would retreat.
Hela became even more interested.
"I hope he's as powerful as you say."
Hela touched her head, and her antler helmet materialized. With a single wave of her hand, she generated a sword, tens of meters long and several meters wide, suspended in the sky.
"Come on, let me have some fun!"
Swish!
The huge black thorn fell, embedding itself several meters into the Earth.
Aaron shook his head helplessly at the sight.
He gently stomped his right foot, and the yellow sand within a ten-thousand-meter radius suddenly shot up into the sky.
Like a waterfall, it 'flowed' upwards, forming a layer of yellow sand clouds a thousand meters high, covering the sky and sun, even lowering the temperature by more than ten degrees.
And the pyramid ruins located underground were thus exposed in the air.
Erik looked at the yellow sand clouds in a daze. "Charles, these sands are at least a hundred million tons, right?"
"You're wrong, at least a billion tons."
Charles also fell silent.
"The fact that I'm alive is simply thanks to the Goddess of Fortune." Erik said in his heart.
Charles replied, "I'm not a woman."
Hela, seeing this, paused for a moment, but she didn't dwell on such matters.
Aaron was her dear uncle, so what if he was a bit stronger?
This time, she summoned hundreds of meters long black swords again, and with one sword, she smashed the pyramid.
"Who is it?!"
An angry voice came from inside the pyramid.
Then a blue Mutant appeared in their field of vision, tearing through space.
When Apocalypse saw Aaron and the others, he was instantly attracted to Kitty, Anna, Clarice, and the others.
"I can feel the power within you. You are my kin."
Apocalypse didn't expect that as soon as he awoke from the darkness, he would see four Mutants with good potential.
He could still remember the last moment the pyramid collapsed, and his Four Horsemen of Apocalypse were ambushed and killed by mortals while protecting him.
Apocalypse didn't know what year it was, but he knew he needed new subordinates.
"My kin, are you willing to become my knights? I will bestow upon you greater power."
As soon as Apocalypse spoke, Hela continuously summoned more necroswords.
With a flick of her fingers, she could create magical black swords capable of piercing through all metals in the world. These weapons, materialized from energy, were enough to inflict devastating blows on the hardest metals.
Apocalypse instantly activated his force field shield.
When the necroswords heavily struck the shield, they did not shake it, but Apocalypse's expression changed slightly.
"Good strength, but I don't feel the aura of my kin from within you."
"You are not a Mutant, who are you?"
Hela chuckled. "The one who will kill you."
Saying that, she walked forward, summoning more necroswords.
