Chapter 896: The Future Has Been Changed Since 1983
The sudden remark made Eric froze, and he didn't understand why his old friend would suddenly say it. However, he instinctively thought of other things, some bad things. This may have something to do with the fact that this old friend of mine will suddenly come to see him again after nearly 20 years.
"Charles, what do you mean?" The expression on his face gradually became indifferent, and his eyes changed from gentle to fierce, as if the Magneto King from twenty years ago had returned again.
"If the wizard were to one day order you to kill me, to kill our people, would you obey his command?" Professor X didn't immediately answer Eric's question, but restated the previous question.
"This ......" Eric clearly didn't know how to answer the question, and his heart was so entangled by the question. On the one hand, he is his old friend, and on the other hand, he is a benefactor who is kind to him. Moreover, he also swore just now that he would work hard to repay the wizard's kindness. Whatever the wizard asked him to do, he would not hesitate to do it. And now, Eric wondered if a wizard told him to kill his friends and fellow mutants one day, would he do what the wizard commanded?
Eric was confused at this moment, the question was too heavy for him. He didn't know how he should face this problem, let alone how he could avoid it in the future. However, the most important thing at the moment is to ask the old friend the question, why would you choose to ask yourself such a question in such a time period.
Professor X looked at Eric's silence for a while, a smile appeared on his face, and he patted the back of his old friend's hand, "Eric, I'm glad that you didn't answer this question immediately and without hesitation, as you just said. Instead, you're confused and thinking, and it's clear that you still care about my old friend and fellow mutants in your heart. You don't have an infinite loyalty to the wizard as you just said, and it is clear that there is a standard set of answers in your mind as well. ”
"No, Charles, you're wrong!" Eric said this to Professor X suddenly, and looked at him with a very serious gaze. Under the latter's gaze, he said firmly: "If in the future, the wizard wants me to kill you and fellow mutants. Then, I will first confirm why he gave this order, and if it is for no reason, let me carry it out unconditionally. I won't take it, I can't take an order without reason! But......" he looked at Professor X solemnly, "if it were you who obstructed the wizard's affairs and stumbled on him at every turn, so that the wizard gave such an order, but I would dissuade you. But if you think that this alone is very wrong, then I will not hesitate to help the wizard and eradicate you! ”
Is that your answer? Eric! When Professor X heard Eric's remarks, his expression was very calm, without the slightest emotion such as anger, as if he was a stranger dealing with different problems.
"Yes!" Eric nodded heavily, "He has always been kind to me, even if I had a grudge with him at the beginning, but ......" he took a heavy breath and spit it out again, "After that incident, the wizard has been kind to me. He was the one who brought my dead wife and daughter back to life, restored my broken family, and gave me a stable and peaceful environment. In this country, in this small land, no one is afraid of me and discriminates against me because of who I am. Just as the wizard had promised at the beginning, there was only peace in his kingdom, no discrimination and no injustice. At least, that's the case in the big picture. I'm enjoying my life right now, my wife, my daughter, looking at the smiles on their faces and the satisfaction in their eyes. My heart is more peaceful than ever, so ......" he looked at Professor X seriously, "I don't want anyone to break the peace here, and I don't like you to do something stupid to off wizards, you know?" Old friend, Charles! ”
Professor X nodded calmly and looked at Eric with a blessed look in his eyes, "I see, Eric." I'm glad that you're in the right situation, you've been changed, even though it's not what anyone expected. However, to be able to see your current living situation, I am also sincerely happy and blessed for you! Congratulations, my old friend, you have been lonely and now you are finally enjoying the warmth of family, and we will always bless you. After he said this, he said to Logan on the side, "Logan, we should go, everything is ...... It's over. ”
Logan on the side also looked puzzled, but he still walked over to Professor X's wheelchair and planned to take him out of here. Eric had no idea what was going on, and his long-lost old friend came to say something specious when he came, which really made him scratch his head. "Old friend, what do you mean by those words you just said? What future has been changed, artificially changed? What the hell is going on? ”
Professor X looked at the latter with a gentle smile on his face, "It doesn't matter, Eric, the most important thing is that your current living environment is very good, you have a family you love, and this is enough for you." The future of things, do not need to care, the most important thing for you at the moment is to live a life of your own, and finally I once again sincerely wish you a happy life! With that, Professor X left, and the people who had come with him went with him. Leaving only Eric on the porch of the manor, confused, for some reason he always felt that the back of his old friend looked so lonely and frustrated. He knew there was a reason for this, but he knew that even if he asked, he wouldn't ask for anything.
"Professor, what do you mean by what you just said to Magneto? Why, I didn't understand a word the whole time? What the hell are you playing? Logan, who was driving, looked through the rearview mirror at Professor X, who was sitting in the back seat. The latter's eyes at this time were filled with a deep sense of frustration and loneliness, as well as an indescribable emotion.
"Logan, it's not important, everything doesn't matter anymore." After saying that, a very powerful force poured out of his brain. Completely erase what happened today from the minds of Logan and everyone.
"Wizard, after all, you have changed the future. Even if I have the help of the gods, I will not be able to correct the future that you have changed. I lost, completely lost, and the whole universe lost. Even the last resort left by the gods has failed with you. Finally, I sincerely wish you to be able to fulfill your ideals and unify all the universes. Lead it to a more brilliant future. Professor X looked out the window at the sky, and after saying this last sentence, he had a strong will in the endless blue sky. Subsequently, Professor X's temperament was different, and he became different again. It seems that there is a will from his body that has disappeared forever, and the future timeline has also disappeared, corrected by the power of time. From now on, no one can interfere with the past through the timeline, and it is from this moment that a new future begins.
"Professor, what do you mean by what you just said to Magneto? Why, I didn't understand a word the whole time? What the hell are you playing? Logan, who was driving, looked through the rearview mirror at Professor X, who was sitting in the back seat. The latter had a blessing in his eyes at this time, and a gentle smile on his face.
"Logan, it doesn't matter, the most important thing now is that Eric has found the life he wants, and this is the best outcome for him. In his life, he has experienced too many tragic things and sufferings. ”
"Why didn't you explain to Magneto what the wizard did in America and what you killed Nick Fury?" He looked at the two cars in the back row through the rearview mirror, "The U.S. government has invested enough money to win Magneto back, and it has specially asked you to go out to pull the strings." ”
Professor X shook his head, "There is no need to disturb the peaceful life of my old friend because of this kind of thing, as for the US government, I will explain it." Let's go home, Logan! ”
"Yes, Professor!"
