Chapter 65 [Forcibly Modified Plot Points] Ask for recommendation votes and collections
"Looks like I'm going to be walking for the time being."
Standing at the gate of Xavier's Talent Youth School, Chris returned to his original appearance, feeling the power of the snake in his body becoming less and less and gradually depleting, and he couldn't help frowning, secretly thinking that he should try to transform as little as possible recently.
I don't know if Hank helped me make a brainwave booster, Chris pushed open the unlocked iron gate at the entrance of the manor with doubts in his heart, and walked straight towards the castle inside.
After passing through a cobblestone road at the entrance, you enter an open turquoise lawn and an infinite blue sky. The grassy slopes undulated on both sides, and a wide and neat corridor in the middle led to the beige palace in front.
Although Chris came to Charles's ancestral manor once and stayed there for about six or seven days, when he came again, he realized that Charles's family was really rich. Not only does it have such a century-old manor house on the outskirts of New York, but it is also able to build a bomb shelter underground, which is said to be able to resist nuclear bomb attacks. Coupled with the fact that the X-Men independently developed a fighter jet that can be invisible in the future, and various high-tech equipment, you can imagine what a glorious family the Xavier family once was.
After walking about a few hundred meters, Chris suddenly noticed that there were two people walking slowly on the grass on the right, and when he looked closely, it was Charles and Hank.
Just when he wanted to go over to say hello, Chris's eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of Charles actually sitting in a wheelchair, and he couldn't help frowning, thinking that it shouldn't be, the reason for Charles's paralysis in both legs seemed to be caused by friction with Eric during the first war.
But he had already solved Shaw when there was no conflict between the two, and he took over all the Red Devils, Emma, Torrent and even the Hellfire Club under Shaw, cutting off Eric's opportunity to establish a brotherhood, Charles should not be what he is now.
While Chris was still wondering, Charles, who was being pushed by Hank on the edge of the grass, suddenly sensed something, turned his head to look at the slope, and shouted with a little excitement: "Hey, Chris! ”
Hank also noticed the comer, looked at it with a smile and waved.
Seeing that Charles and Hank had discovered him, Chris walked over with a smile, hugged the enthusiastic Hank, and then glanced at Charles and wondered, "I think... You don't have a problem with being in a wheelchair. ”
"It's a long story." Charles didn't lose or reveal more expressions, but smiled and said, "Okay, let's not mention this matter yet, you came to Hank to ask if the brainwave booster has been made, right?" ”
"Hmm." Chris didn't want to say more when he saw Charles, so he didn't ask more.
"Let's go, Hank has got you ready, let's go check it out."
After Charles finished speaking, he asked Hank to push him towards the castle's laboratory.
...
Along the way, Chris saw that except for Alex, Aman, and Sien the Kraken, Eric and Raven were not here, and secretly thought that this would not be a forced correction of the world plot after the butterfly effect.
When they reached the door of a lab, Charles motioned for Hank to stop, and he smiled at Chris and said, "Chris, I won't bother you and Hank." You should have seen the sign hanging at the gate of the manor before you came, and recently I was going to open a school for mutants to teach teenage mutants who were prone to getting out of control. ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for you."
Although Chris wanted to ask Charles what was going on, although the other party's face was very calm, it could be seen from his slightly outgoing mental ability that he should be very uncomfortable at the moment.
Charles pushed his wheelchair away, and Hank opened the door as he said, "I've been looking for you lately, and I made the brainwave booster last week, but I haven't been able to find you there." I wanted to ask Charles, but Charles couldn't sense you without the help of a brainwave booster, so I had to wait for you to come to my door. ”
"There's something to deal with."
Chris replied casually, and then looked at the innermost part of the lab, a lab table with an instrument the size of a motorcycle helmet.
"This is an enhanced version of the brainwave booster I designed for Charles."
Hank noticed that Chris's mind was all on the device, and he also walked over quickly to pick up the helmet-style device and said, "You've disappeared since that time, so before I did this, I also made an enhanced version for Charles, which I also made based on Charles's brain waves." ”
Chris didn't understand and said, "You're saying that the specially made brainwave booster can only be used by me?" ”
"No, no, it's not." Hank shook his head and said: "Everyone's brain waves are different, and the instrument I made based on the brain waves you provided before is not to say that you can only use it alone, but that you can use it the best, and the one that can exert its maximum effect, and the words of others can only play half or less." ”
"Oh." When he said that, Chris understood.
Hank said: "Because you haven't been there, I asked Charles to test it, and after he used the new augmenter, the ability he sensed covered almost the entire Americas. As for how much range you can sense, I don't know very well, but Charles said that your mental power is very strong, and it should be enough to sense most of the world. ”
"Can you only perceive half the world?"
Chris frowned, what he wants to do is to devour the will of the earth, if he can only perceive most of the world, I'm afraid it's a bit insufficient.
Hank heard the meaning in Chris's tone and smiled, "Uh... I haven't tried it specifically, so I don't know very well, Charles is just guessing, do you want to try it now? ”
"Can you do it now?" Chris has been coveting this device for a long time, not only to think about merging the will of the earth, but also to experience the refreshing feeling of Charles's telepathic scanning of the world in an instant.
"Of course."
Hank said a little proudly: "You know, I deliberately eliminated the previous complicated steps, but it was also thanks to Charles's financial help that I bought the huge satellite pot outside, which is why it is so convenient." ”
With that, Hank pointed out the window, about a kilometer away, a huge satellite pot that was comparable to a small tall building.
"I can sponsor you a little if you need the funds, but you have to tell me what to do with this stuff first?"
Chris held the helmet and looked left and right twice, and then put it on his head, but tried it, but found nothing out of the ordinary.
"You're going to try it here?"
"Why don't you go there?"
Hank said: "Charles has remodeled the basement, where is there a machine connected to the satellite pot, we need to take this down, and then replace Charles's one." ”
"Let's go, then."
Chris hugged his helmet and motioned for Hank to lead the way.
On the way to the basement, Hank told Chris a lot about the things to look out for when using the brainwave booster, which Charles had told him after the experiment.
While Hank was tirelessly explaining how to use the instrument, suddenly, Chris confided in the doubts that had already risen in his heart: "By the way, Hank, where did Eric and Raven go?" ”
"Hmm..."Hank heard Chris's question, stopped and said with some hesitation: "Chris, this matter is a bit complicated, you still don't want to know." ”
"Eric eloped with Raven?" Chris grinned, although he didn't know what was going on, but it still looked like the original plot.
"How do you know?"
Hank looked surprised, then came to his senses, and said in surprise, "You have learned to read minds?" ”
"Mind reading?"
"Uh... It was Charles's ability to read other people's minds, which he called mind reading. ”
Chris scoffed, "I don't think that's called mind reading!" ”
