Magnus An 4000 #4

In "Le mystérieux robot pieuvre," Magnus faces a chilling new threat as Xyrkol unleashes a magnetic force field robot to assault North Am, while two humaniform androids work to infiltrate Magnus’s inner circle. With cunning and resolve, Magnus traces the enemy to his hidden Antarctic base and closes in—just as the true nature of the mechanical menace begins to unfold.

In the tense aftermath of a crash landing on Earth, Zarz faces a crisis as the ship’s engines fail—forcing him to order every human outside before anyone else escapes. As panic spreads and soldiers open fire on the alien rescuers, the survivors must find a way to survive the burning vessel, relying on a fragile connection of mind-force to stay alive. With Captain Johner regaining consciousness and the command to hold fire echoing through the wreckage, Zarz reflects on the peril of fear—and the fragile hope that might follow.
