Chapter 103: The Seal of the Ruby
In the red light, an illusion of a red giant god as majestic as a mountain peak enveloped Kane, the red giant looked like a half-human and half-snake giant, the whole body was full of scales emitting red light, and the appearance was terrifying and hideous, even Charles, the person with the strongest willpower among human beings, looked at this illusion, and his mind was in chaos, if ordinary people saw it, they would immediately go crazy and become a fanatical madman.

Kane twitched violently in the red light, although he couldn't speak, but his eyes were full of endless painful affection, and he looked at his brother Charles without blinking, his eyes were full of begging.
"Kane, I'm here to save you!" shouted Charles, rushing up to pull Kane out of the red light.
At this time, Charles was just a young man in his twenties, although he had the most powerful telepathic ability in human beings, but when he encountered this kind of treacherous and terrifying thing, especially when it came to the terrifying evil gods of the outer universe, Charles also panicked, his first reaction was not to do anything with his ability, but to be like the stupid male protagonist in a horror movie.
Setolak's illusion raised his hand contemptuously, a red light hit Charles's chest, Charles felt a huge force hit him, he screamed, flew out more than ten meters away, and then fell heavily to the ground, his three ribs should be broken, and the ulna of his left arm also had traces of bone cracking, a huge sound and a flash of red light, which woke up the tribe guarding the Setolak ruby, and more than a dozen warriors with scimitars cautiously walked into the temple, and they were immediately stunned by the scene in front of them.
"Go to the elders and the priests!" shouted the leader of the warriors, and one of his quickest men nodded and ran out with a torch.
The leader of the Warriors strode over to Charles and lifted him off the ground with one hand.
"Stupid Westerners, there is no awe and no god in the eyes of you pigs! As long as it is for money, you dare to do anything! You dare to come and steal the artifact that our people guard day and night, you don't know how terrifying this artifact is!" shouted the leader in fluent English, "Every year there are some Western thieves who want to steal the treasure and want to steal the Setolac ruby, and they all become crazy, do you want to become crazy too?"
Usually foreign invaders, that is, some thieves who know that there is this artifact here, there are also two kinds, one is really capable, the other is not capable, and when they see the strange appearance of the setolac ruby, they know that it is powerful, and they take the initiative to evacuate, and those who have no real ability are tempted by the setolac ruby, and they are used as materials to fill the gaps.
But like now, Kane was not actually absorbed, but the essence of Setolak was going to possess him, which was something that had not been done in tens of thousands of years.
Although Kane has not shown any superpowers, he is a brother to Charles, and he also has mutant genes hidden in his body, so Setolak Ruby chose him as the next host.
At this time, the high priests arrived one after another, and they used the ancestral magic of the tribe to weaken the power of the Setolak Ruby, but their strength alone was not enough to fight against the will of the Setolak Ruby, although the Setolak Ruby was already very weak, it was a scale from the evil god Setolak himself, and after hundreds of millions of years, it still contained huge energy.
Charles also had no choice but to help everyone fight against the will of the Setolak Ruby, Charles's strength alone was much stronger than those high priests combined, Charles was in Kane's body, facing the essence of Setolak.
"Let go of my brother and go back to your hometown! this is the earth, not your crimson universe, if you are really a god, you should have a compassionate heart, Kane is only twenty years old, his life has just begun, if you really want a host, use my body!" Charles said solemnly.
"Stupid mortal, don't use your narrow thinking to measure the existence that is far higher than you, Setolak is the main god of the crimson universe, God does not hear, God does not know, God does not move, God only exists! This small planet, you only need to worship Setolak immediately, God has no interest in domination!" Setolak Ruby responded, "Whoever I want, I can use whomever body, since I already have this suitable body available, you are useless!"
"Help me... Brother—" Kane said weakly in the red light.
"It's amazing that you still have consciousness, but you can't stop Setorak, the Crimson Sect will inevitably rise on Earth, and this planet belongs to the Crimson Universe!" Setolak Ruby said proudly.
Knowing that the negotiations with the Setolac Ruby had broken down, Charles channeled the power of the High Priests in a desperate attempt to stop the Setolac Ruby.
"Brother... Do what you should do, if it completely occupies my body, as long as I walk on the earth for a week, everyone on the earth will become a believer in Setolac, and Setolak will have the right to drag the earth into the crimson universe. At this critical point of survival, Kane voluntarily gave up hope of being rescued, hoping that Charles would seal him away with the Setolac Ruby.
This is Charles's only chance, and now Kane has the initiative for the last time, and the Setolak Ruby will impact again, Kane's consciousness will be destroyed, and the connection with the Setolak Ruby will allow Kane to find its flaw, which is the trauma caused by the Apocalypse's attack on the Setolak Ruby, using this, Kane can imprison the power of the Setolak Ruby by filling the gap by himself, and Kane is also sealed, and the Setolak Ruby loses its host.
Charles had only one way, and he shared Kane's thoughts with the high priests, and the process required great strength, requiring everyone in the clan to participate, and the process was very dangerous.
The clan leader agreed to Charles's plan, and the tribe that guarded the Setolac Ruby was originally the descendants of the warriors who fought against the Apocalypse in ancient times, and they had been guarding this place for so many years, just to prevent the power of the Setolak Ruby from wreaking havoc on the world, and for this, they would not hesitate to sacrifice their entire clan.
The entire tribe, men, women, and children, gathered around the twelve high priests to transmit their power to Charles, and Charles used these powers to suppress the power of the Setolac Ruby, which was a confrontation beyond the material plane, and although the Setolac Ruby was weak, its power was still amazingly strong.
Even if there is the power of the entire clan, Charles is still completely suppressed, from the Setolak ruby, the surging power, in the form of red light, will weaken Charles's spirit little by little, so it won't be long before Charles's spirit will be completely wiped out, and Kane will not only not be saved, but will become the host of the Setolak ruby, which will be a disaster for the world.
"Setolac Ruby! I'll fight with you!" At this moment, seeing that his brother Charles was about to be killed by Setolak Ruby, Kane suddenly rose up, he grabbed the Setolak Ruby and gathered it above his head, Kane's body suddenly turned into a red light, and drilled into the ruby.
Suddenly, all the red light was gone, and the temple of Setolak was dark, only the Setolak Ruby that emitted a strange red light lay quietly on the ground, Kane was gone, and around Charles, the whole tribe sat quietly.
Suddenly, at the front, the body of the high priest shook, and his body suddenly drifted away with the wind, and the people of the entire tribe also turned into red smoke and disappeared in a gust of wind, in order to support Charles, the tribe of the descendants of the ancient warriors, the whole clan was sacrificed.
Because of his contempt for his younger brother Kane, it would lead to such a consequence, Charles stood quietly in the temple, suddenly squatted on the ground, crying silently, this matter is a piece of Charles's heart disease all along, and later he became Professor X, he advocates the peaceful coexistence of mutants and humans, and it is also because of Kane, because Kane is the most ordinary human being.
Although Kane was impulsive and reckless and eventually buried himself, Charles always thought that if he hadn't been too immersed in his own power back then and cared more about Kane, maybe Kane wouldn't have disappeared, and if mutants cared more about human thoughts and let humans know more about themselves, maybe humans wouldn't be so afraid of mutants anymore.
