Chapter 49: Charles's Spiritual Body
Professor Charles didn't want to live anymore, especially after remembering what he had done when he was out of control, and those memories kept tormenting him.
Logan, on the other hand, wants the professor to live, especially after Ethan explains the method and Professor Charles' attitude proves that it is a viable option.
"Professor, you should understand that it's not your fault. ”
He hopes to convince professors to accept this approach, especially if he has hope of survival.
The two of them are the only remaining X-Men, and compared to Caliban, who was once an enemy, Logan undoubtedly hopes that the professor can live forever.
Ethan didn't interject, he had already talked about the method, and he didn't care what choice he made in the end.
As he said, he wants to change something, but that's when the other party is willing to change, if the other party himself is not willing, he will not force the other party, let alone keep chasing after the ass to persuade - he is here to make himself happy, not to make trouble for himself.
"I still hope you can cure Logan, as for me, ......"
Charles listened quietly to Logan's persuasion, and did not turn to Ethan until Logan finished speaking.
"I hope you can save my spiritual power and give it to someone worthy of trust. ”
At first, Ethan thought that Charles had figured it out and no longer wanted to die, but he didn't expect this kind of twist to come? What does this mean? Ethan quickly thought of something, but the guess was a bit too shocking, and he even suspected that he was thinking too much.
"Do you want to store your memories and experiences in your spiritual power, and then give these things to your other self, along with all your spiritual power?"
Charles nodded, "I know you can do this." ”
Ethan was about to ask Charles how he was sure of this, and then realized that his previous words had already revealed enough information.
As the most powerful brain in this world, not only refers to Charles's mental ability, Professor Charles's IQ is also the top level of human beings, when he was affected by Ethan's mental power to restore him to a conscious state, Charles almost recovered to his peak 'brain power', he did not ignore any word Ethan said, and after careful analysis, he came to a conclusion that surprised him.
"This young man is free to come and go as he wants from multiple worlds. ”
This is very shocking, if it was Charles a few years ago, maybe he would have discussed the topic of the multiverse with Ethan, but now, the first thing that comes to his mind is, how to use this to save mutants and prevent the disaster he experienced from happening again?
"You should understand that the multiverse is parallel, and your experiences and memories cannot change the world even if you give it to another you, which is very different from the kind of time travel you have done. ”
In order to deal with the threat of the sentry robot, they teleported Wolverine's consciousness to a few decades ago, thus changing history, and the new timeline covered the timeline of their original existence, except for Wolverine Logan, everyone lost all the memories of the history of the sentry robot, and all of them were equivalent to living in a new timeline.
"I know. "The mental power released by Charles in his out-of-control state, although it was bounced out by the other party's mental power as soon as it was slightly touched in Ethan's brain, it still brought back some bits and pieces, including information such as the multiverse.
Charles did not hide this matter, and directly told some of the things he learned from Ethan.
Ethan is also very helpless about this, he knows that Charles has a very bad habit, that is, he is very gossipy, and his first reaction when he sees a person is to drill into people's minds first.
Ethan's mental power has far surpassed that of ordinary people, although it can't be compared with Charles, who has been focusing on mental power for decades, but if he is dedicated to defense, he will not easily break through the defense line, but at that time, he happened to think about how to word, and thought about information such as multiple parallel universes, so these contents will be known by Charles.
"At least so that the world of me will not repeat the mistakes of the past. ”
Charles's eyes became a little darker, and his mental power fluctuated violently, Ethan knew that his brain was about to be unable to hold it, and Charles was forcibly maintaining his awake state with his strong mental power.
Not only Ethan could detect it, but even Logan saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly took out the medicine bottle, preparing to let Charles take the medicine, so as to prevent him from suddenly going crazy and killing both him and Ethan.
However, his outstretched hand was firmly grasped by Charles's weak and old hand: "Let me finish these last words...... I can hold on for a while. ”
Charles almost mentioned the last bit of spirit: "I'm about to lose it, if you are willing to help me later, then draw my mental power later, and I will do my best to cooperate." If you don't want to, then please find a place where you can go and bury me. ”
This sentence was addressed both to Ethan and to Logan.
Ethan helped, and the next step was to strip Charles's mental power from his body and load it into a special storage prop.
Ethan is reluctant to help, so Logan is responsible for burying Charles.
He would leave such words because Charles was burning his life to keep himself awake, and when he fell back into a state of confusion, he would never be able to recover again, and would die soon after.
Although it is a little different from his expectations, Professor Charles himself is unwilling to live, and Ethan will not continue to force the other party, as for the small matter of helping to 'send something', of course he will not refuse.
As long as he agrees, Logan will naturally go with him - he must ensure that Ethan can fulfill his promise, so he must always follow Ethan, which can be regarded as the biggest purpose of Ethan's trip.
"I promise you!"
Ethan nodded firmly at Charles.
"I will definitely give this gift of yours to another one, and promise that nothing will go wrong. ”
Ethan is serious, he admits that he has countless shortcomings, but he has always been proud of his respect and keeping his promises.
As long as he says yes, he will definitely do it. It's not a question of whether to work hard or not, but to complete it - it's just that he's more afraid of trouble and won't give a commitment most of the time.
"I believe in you. ”
Charles nodded at Ethan, and then he didn't take the pills that Logan had prepared, and his head drooped straight down, as if he had suddenly fallen asleep.
Ethan knew that this was not the case, and he was even more nervous than Logan had been, and immediately asked Logan to carry the professor to the bed.
"Quick, the professor has burned his last life force, we must hurry up and extract his spirit body, otherwise once the body dies, the spirit body will also be left irreparably damaged. ”
Although Logan didn't quite understand these strange things, he also understood that the professor's current situation was very dangerous, and he had to hurry.
Put Charles away, Logan couldn't help much in the next thing, seeing Ethan take out a thick leather book out of thin air, and then open the book, lines of light kept emerging in the void, and slowly combined into one mysterious pattern after another, even if he was stupid, he knew that Ethan was not an ordinary mutant.
Maybe Ethan isn't a mutant at all, and he looks more like a magician in legends or movies.
"What are you...... Using magic?"
"Yes. ”
It wasn't until there were countless magic circles floating around him, encircling both himself and the professor, that Ethan breathed a sigh of relief and answered Logan's question.
"Is there really magic in this world?"
"I don't know if there's anything in this world, but have you forgotten that I'm from another world?"
Logan realized that he had asked a stupid question, so he asked in a different way.
"So, all you used before was magic, not a mutant superpower?"
"Of course, I'm not a mutant. ”
Wolverine felt like he was running out of brains.
"Then why did you come to help us?"
In any case, he couldn't figure it out, if Ethan was a mutant, then he offered to run to the door and offer to help, he could understand a little.
Since Ethan is not a mutant, he has nothing to do with them, why did he suddenly come to help? And as a person who has really traveled through time, he knows that time travel is not an easy thing, Ethan is so sure that he will be able to complete Charles's entrustment?
"Is there a conspiracy?"
His fists clenched slightly, and he began to suspect that Ethan had been plotting the professor's powerful spiritual power from the beginning, such as devouring the professor's mental power to improve himself, or using the professor's spiritual power to cultivate some evil magic or something, after all, this is how it is played in many movies.
"Let your guard down, I'm not interested in the professor's spiritual body. That won't do me any good, but it will make all my hard work go to waste. ”
Charles's spiritual power is very strong, if it was an ordinary mage, it was really possible to do something in order to seize this huge spiritual power. But for Ethan, ensuring the purity of his mental power is more important than anything else - with his current level of mental power, devouring Charles's spiritual body will definitely not make him stronger, and it is almost the same as being robbed of his body by Charles.
At this moment, Charles's spirit body was extracted from his body, and a translucent Professor Charles floated above his body, smiling and nodding at Logan.
"Don't worry, I can feel that Ethan is genuinely here to help us. ”
