When Wolverine saw the young officer's face, a memory surfaced in his mind.
Stryker, the one who will inject adamantium into his entire skeleton in the future!
"Eric, watch out for those guys."
Charles suddenly winked at Magneto and said...
"Them? Why?"
Magneto glanced at Luo Xing and the others that Charles was looking at, his brows furrowing slightly.
“They once threatened me, saying they could wipe Raven off the face of the earth to ensure the future would happen. That little girl’s power is definitely no less than yours.”
Charles stared intently at Wanda beside Luo Xing. Although Luo Xing seemed to be just using reverse psychology, he still felt something was wrong, and a sense of crisis lingered in his mind.
"But I think he's right."
Magneto suddenly interrupted Charles, looked up at Mystique, and with a wave of his hand, the pistol flew from Mystique's hand to his.
"Eric? Charles, stop him!"
Mystique stared at Magneto in disbelief.
“I’m sorry, he can’t do it now, but you, Mystique, as long as you live, mutants will never have peace.”
Magneto smiled slightly at Mystique and pulled the trigger.
"No! Eric!!"
Charles's eyes widened; at that moment, he only hated that he had lost his power and could not stop all of this.
Bang! — Sizzle!
The bullet was blocked by a wall of quicksand that suddenly rose up. Even though Magneto used his powers to control the bullet, he could not continue to pass through the sand wall.
"I thought we were on the same page."
Magneto turned to look at Luo Xing and spoke.
"Thank you, Luo."
Charles breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Luo Xing take action, and at the same time felt guilty for his earlier doubts.
boom!
While the others were talking, Mystique decisively chose to jump out of the window and leave.
Now that Professor X has lost her powers and can no longer control Magneto, she knows how terrifying Magneto's abilities are and doesn't dare to linger, even though someone just stepped in to protect her.
"Perhaps you could try to stop me."
After saying something to Luo Xing, Magneto floated away and chased after him.
Drop drop drop.
Dr. Tesla, standing to the side, scanned the group with his mutant testing device, finally settling on Luo Xing.
"You're not a mutant?!"
Tesla looked at the red light on the instrument panel that had gone out, utterly shocked.
If he's not a mutant, then what was that method of manipulating sand just now?
"Lo, please, stop Eric!"
Charles glanced at Beast Hank, who was chasing after them, and knew that Beast Hank's strength alone was no match for Magneto. He could only place his hopes on Luo Xing.
At this moment, Wolverine became emotional upon seeing Stryker, causing Shadowcat's abilities to become unstable. For a moment, the two consciousnesses clashed, and he lost control of his body, leaning against the wall.
The remaining Wanda and Pietro followed Luo Xing, with him as their leader.
"In truth, Logan, even if you reverse this future, how can you guarantee that the new future won't be apocalyptic?"
Luo Xing ignored Charles's pleas, walked over to Wolverine, and said to him.
"So you're just going to let Eric kill Raven?" Charles said, clutching his head in anguish.
"No, what I mean is—even without Mystique, as long as mutants exist, the envy and fear of ordinary people will never disappear."
"Even if you save the world, when peace comes, your abilities will become something those people fear."
Luo Xing's statement is not an exaggeration; even after Wolverine reversed the future, a new "apocalypse" still arrived.
In Logan, due to the widespread availability of genetically modified food, new mutants could no longer emerge, Professor X's dementia killed most of his students, and Wolverine's healing factor gradually failed.
Ordinary people fear the power of mutants and want to eliminate them, but they also crave to acquire and control the superpowers of mutants.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Charles gradually noticed something amiss. It seemed that Luo Xing didn't simply want to eliminate Mystique to save the future; he seemed to have a more... far-reaching goal.
“I can help you solve this problem, but I need to take Mystique away and take her to another world without mutants,” Luo Xing said.
After agonizing over the choice between "Mystique being killed and mutants becoming extinct" and "Mystique being taken to a world where there is no discrimination," Charles slowly raised his head: "What are you going to do about it?"
"It's very simple."
Luo Xing glanced at the doctor who was holding the X-gene detector, and slowly walked to the window. "This world needs a villain, so I'll be that villain."
boom! ! ! !
A beam of golden sunlight shone on Luo Xing.
The blinding light dissipated, and Luo Xing's ordinary clothes disappeared, replaced by a golden crown, a long robe, and flowing sleeves. A golden, mysterious staff was now in his hand.
Ascension Mode activated!
Chapter 55 Persecution Mania
"I don't know how Luo plans to become a 'villain,' and even if I did, I wouldn't have the power to stop him."
Charles watched Luo Xing leave, then leaned against the wall and slowly lay down on the ground.
"I don't know how Luo plans to become a 'villain,' and even if I did, I wouldn't have the power to stop him."
Charles watched Luo Xing leave, then leaned against the wall and slowly lay down on the ground.
Having never had the experience of conversing with his future self, the young Professor X is too fragile to convince himself to stop Luo Xing or Magneto.
"Wanda, let's go help."
Pietro walked to the window, turned to his sister, and said...
I advise you not to go.
Wolverine, who had been battling his pain for half a day in the corner, gritted his teeth and forced himself to speak.
"Why? Aren't you friends with that 'Dictator'?"
Pietro paused, looking at Wolverine with a puzzled expression.
“You are now mutants, and going there would ruin his plans.”
Charles stared blankly out the window and began to speak:
"According to Luo, he wants to let the ordinary people of this world know that there are other superhumans besides mutants, and only the extraordinary can defeat the extraordinary."
“Ordinary people see the world in black and white, and what Luo wants to do is create that kind of feeling for them.”
"So mutants absolutely cannot appear in Luo's territory, at least not now."
Even though Charles has lost his powers now, the memories of using those powers haven't faded, so he still has a very clear understanding of the minds of ordinary people.
"Moreover, in this world, that guy should actually be considered your father."
Wolverine, who had gradually recovered, slowly stood up, dusted off his clothes, and said.
"what?"
Pietro looked at Wolverine with a bewildered expression. "Our parents died a month ago. Besides, we're not from this world. How could that person be our father?"
"This... is hard to explain."
Wolverine frowned and hesitated for a moment, realizing that with his limited intelligence, he simply couldn't explain it clearly.
"No, it's very simple."
Charles helped Wolverine to his feet and walked towards Wanda and Pietro. "Why did you two have the X-gene when you came into this world, but he didn't? You siblings must have an inseparable relationship with mutants."
"what relationship?"
Wanda and Pietro asked instinctively.
“This touches on a blind spot in my knowledge. Perhaps only someone like Lo, who can travel between two universes, knows the connection between our world and yours... and the connection between you and mutants.”
Charles walked past the brother and sister to the window and looked out.
Outside in the plaza, Beast Hank, the first to jump out to stop Magneto, was now tied to the central fountain by several iron pipes, unable to move, and was being watched and photographed by passersby.
Are we now having a race to see who finds her first?
Magneto floated in the air, surrounded by various metals, looking at Luo Xing who appeared opposite him.
Mystique disguised herself as an ordinary passerby and hid in the surroundings. Unless Professor X regained his powers, no one could find her immediately, unless...
“I just left a small piece of wire on her.”
Magneto's lips curled slightly, and his gaze gradually shifted to a person not far away.
In an instant, countless steel blades around him transformed into sharp blades, all shooting towards the ordinary passerby.
"No, Eric!"
Overwhelmed by the fear of death, Mystique could no longer maintain her transformation and reverted to her original form, her eyes filled with terror.
Ding! ! !
A piercing metallic clang echoed across the square, the screeching sound forcing people to cover their ears.
"I'm not dead?"
Mystique stared at her hands, still shaken.
At this moment, she was enveloped in a layer of flowing sand, which protected her entire body like armor, and the steel controlled by Magneto could not cause her any harm.
"Thank you."
