Chapter 82: Hand in Hand for a New Future
In the original plot, Sebastian was defeated by this trick, but now he has changed the situation in a different place, and he still falls under this trick.
Just as the young Magneto performed a delicate maneuver, turning the metal into a thin wire, and then silently approached and wrapped around the helmet, the winner was already decided.
Without the protection of the helmet, Sebastian is powerless to stop Charles's mind control, and he has become a lamb to the slaughter, and life and death are completely in the hands of the enemy.
This seems to prove that if you rely too much on a certain piece of equipment, you will suffer a lot sooner or later, and that no matter how powerful you are, it is best to be vigilant enough when facing enemies, otherwise it will happen to you sooner or later, like Sebastian who wasted himself alive and dead.
What happened next was still no surprise, and Magneto Eric pulled out the meaningful coin.
Sebastian captures Eric's mother and forces the young Eric to show his abilities and kill his mother if he fails.
This coin is a prop for him to show his abilities.
At that time, he didn't know that he had special abilities, but Eric, who had just awakened and had no way to control himself, was naturally unable to show his abilities, so his mother died in front of his eyes.
For so many years, this coin has been kept by him closely, for the moment in front of him.
Looking at Sebastian who was controlled by Charles, Eric didn't care if this guy could see and hear his words, he just wanted to vent all the anger he had suppressed for decades.
The coin slowly flew in mid-air, flying towards Sebastian little by little, Charles on the side kept talking about persuasion, and after finding that Eric didn't care about his persuasion at all, he began to think of other ways.
Compared with the original plot, the current Charles has too many choices.
He could keep Eric from killing Sebastian, but as he remembers, Eric got Sebastian's helmet and was clearly on his guard.
He can also rush over to stop Eric himself, or he can control the Red Devil to teleport away Eric or Sebastian, but what should he really do?
After a little hesitation, Charles finally made a decision, he had to follow his own philosophy, and he didn't want Eric to become a murderer.
Ethan couldn't understand this kind of thinking, but he was more understanding of Eric's obsession with revenge.
As a child, avenging the murdered mother is a very correct choice, and giving up hatred is bullshit in his eyes, so just when Charles wanted to do something, the young professor found that a transparent glass wall suddenly appeared around him, surrounding him and the Red Devil controlled by him.
In the eyes of outsiders, it was Charles and the Red Devil who were standing on the field who suddenly disappeared, but everyone waved their hands lightly before seeing Ethan, and it was obvious that this was his hand and foot.
"What did you do?"
Mora was very excited, she had already reached for her weapon, and as long as Ethan didn't give her a reasonable explanation, she would immediately attack Ethan.
"I just don't want him to do something that he will regret for the rest of his life. ”
To explain simply, he just threw Charles and the Red Devil into the mirror space, and in that separate space, Charles could see everything that was happening outside, although it seemed to be separated by a layer of glass.
Ethan didn't block Charles's ability to release, and if he did, Sebastian would be freed as well, all he had to do was not let Charles rush over to stop Eric, and not let the Red Devils be able to transfer Eric away.
Eric of course realized what was happening, and quietly put his helmet on his head, he knew that Charles could not stop him, and at the same time, he would not let Sebastian go, this was his best chance to take revenge.
Nodding his head to Ethan in thanks, Eric eventually dropped the coin into Sebastian's skull.
Just when the coin got into Sebastian's skull, and Charles, who had established a spiritual connection with him, was also suffering greatly, Ethan decisively severed the connection between the two.
Now that Sebastian is dead, there is no need for Charles to continue to suffer this pain. Charles, who is in mirror space, is not as closely connected with the outside world as he is outside, and it is not too difficult to cut it off.
After Sebastian completely collapsed, Ethan also disarmed the mirror space, and seeing Charles reappear, Mora, who had been very nervous, finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Charles covered her head and looked pained to make her nervous again.
"What's wrong with you?"
She thought it was Ethan who had done something, but Charles quickly said that he was fine, that he was just overusing his abilities.
He wasn't going to explain it in detail to Mora, which involved a battle of ideas between himself and Eric.
Ethan discovers that after disarming the mirror space, Charles has lifted his control over the Red Devil because of a splitting headache, and this mutant who can teleport has run away to the middle of nowhere, or is hiding in some hidden corner to observe the situation here?
Ethan, the Red Devil, didn't know much about him, and he didn't know what he thought of his companions, and if he stayed around, he probably wanted to save Emma, the White Queen.
Ignoring the Red Devil and the Torrent who didn't know where they were, Ethan patted the silent Eric on the shoulder: "Isn't there a feeling that the huge boulder has finally been moved away?" ”
Eric was silent and did not speak, he did have a similar feeling in his heart, but thinking of Charles's persuasion all the time, he was really not sure whether his choice was right or wrong.
"It doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, as long as you don't regret the choices you made. ”
"I don't regret it. ”
Eric is convinced of this, and he doesn't feel sorry for killing this guy anyway.
"Go thank your friend. ”
Eric looked at Charles on the side, and then at the group of nervous-looking special operators around him, and he seemed to be faced with a choice once again.
From the future that Charles told himself, he knew what kind of situation mutants would face, and was the approach Charles chose really what he wanted?
Eric was entangled, but looking at Charles, who couldn't stand up with a headache, Eric finally couldn't leave like this.
Especially now that Charles has just helped him kill Sebastian.
Eric silently took off his helmet and walked over to Charles' side: "I don't know exactly what I'm going to make in that world, but I'll help you, just like you helped me before." ”
Logan looked at Eric and Charles, who were 'looking at each other affectionately', and felt more and more that there was a huge difference between this place and his own world, Magneto and Professor X did not part ways because of ideas, and it seemed that they were going to join forces firmly, and maybe there would be a completely different future here.
"I suddenly wondered what the world would become. ”
Ethan also walked back, but his eyes were on Charles, who was sitting down, Mora who was holding him, and Eric who was kneeling in front of Charles, and he was expecting Mora to suddenly pull out his pistol and shoot Eric at him.
"I'm looking forward to some of the more interesting things happening. ”
Logan was speechless, Ethan would occasionally have a sudden convulsion, although sometimes he also thought it was quite interesting, but such a touching and meaningful moment in front of him, he couldn't bear to continue with Ethan's words.
"What's next?"
"Next, this place must be unavailable. ”
The base that the CIA had arranged for them was a vast complex of buildings that had been completely reduced to ruins in Magneto's massive battle, and even if the enemy had been dealt with, there was no way to stay here anymore.
Considering that in the original plot, they left here after this attack and went to live in the manor left by the Charles family, which was also the prototype of the future Xavier School for Geniuses.
In addition, Professor Charles now has a memory of the future, knows what difficulties he will face in the future, and also knows how his future self and his partners will deal with it, among which opening a special school to take care of and educate young mutants is a very important part.
There is almost no suspense that this school will be born again, and this group of young mutants around them will undoubtedly become the first students, and after they become a little more mature, they will become the first teachers in the school to teach more young mutants.
Charles, who had been lying on his stomach for a while, finally stood up, and Logan looked at Professor Charles, who was walking freely, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
The professor in my memory always seems to be in a wheelchair, and this may not be the case in this world again.
Even if they meet Charles, who is no longer able to walk, with Ethan's current ability, there is a way to cure him, and now the two sides have established a preliminary friendship, even if Charles is paralyzed again in the future, Ethan can help treat it next time he comes to notice the situation.
"A Magneto who no longer goes to extremes and is hostile to ordinary humans, and Professor X, who can walk freely, this is really a big change. ”
Ethan touched his chin and glanced at Charles, who had already come closer.
"And a head of thick hair. ”
Charles, who was still very weak, had bright eyes and stared at Ethan with an extremely serious look.
"Don't let anyone touch my hair!"
