Exactly, no one left to stop them. The city can’t just insta cook new CoV, that takes time and thanks to explodey girl now the A.I. is damaged so there is no one left to stop the X-Men from downloading whatever info they want.
So was the City. They literally say that they aren’t strong enough yet to take over the world.They were building a murder machine that could be dangerous even to humans. The mission was destroy it
Not everything is destroyed. There’s gonna be an active terminal somewhere that the team can log into, that’s how these stories usually play out. Or you could be right and the mission is just a complete failure and a colossal waste of time for all parties involved.
Programmed to kill everyone and everything. Not only was negotiating not an option, the children were going to kill the X-Men. If you want to argue the ethics of the X-Men infiltrating the children’s home that’s one thing but you’re giving the children a free pass from any responsibility for their actions, you should be upset at the city for programming them, not the X-Men for defending themselves.The kids are programmed, murder them is cruel
I get it, you really want the X-Men to be the bad guys. You do you, enjoy the books how you want but I won’t debate in circles like this anymore. I’ve pointed out what I think the flaws in your logic are. If you want to respond with something new and not repeat yourself let’s talk.
Because they can't choose. X-men redeem a lot of mass murders, but Cotv are competitors so x-men just kill them? That is wrong
it is a huge explosion, the city is setient enough to also erase and corrupt any file. This would be too easy if all data is intact

Almost every superhero fight is someone trying to kill the hero, so 'they're trying to kill them!' feels like a hollow excuse to murder them all. And there are plenty of mutants with teleportation and phasing powers, so limiting your options to sending a team through the front door is poor planning from the start.
Comparing this to the Mother Mold is kind of an apples to oranges thing. One is a superweapon, where the location itself IS the weapon. Its a Death Star type of situation where the scale and size of the weapon means you can't go the small route, at least not at short notice. Here its kind of a confusing mess. Like, if the CotV are really that big of a threat, why not just assault the city outright? Don't tell me they don't have the firepower to just lay waste to it. And this was not a team of spies they sent it.
Anyone that thought the COTV weren't going to get wiped off the map or is eben a little bit surprised because of it hasn't really been paying attention to Hickman's run.
The Krakoans are EEEvil!
THEY MUST BE STOPPED!
CotV are like the clones executing Order 66 except instead of having a chip inserted in their brain (that can be removed), they have been engineered into organic nimrods with their core mission to eradicate both mutants and humans.
