Chapter 21: Meet Professor X

When the phone rang on the desk, Professor X and the three of them looked at it in unison.

In fact, for a person with telepathic abilities like Professor X, an old-fashioned landline phone that also needs to dial up and transmit voice messages through cables is really redundant.

After all, if he really needs to notify someone urgently, wouldn't it be faster and more convenient to directly connect to the other party's brain through telepathic ability and pass the information on?

But in fact, Professor X, who has telepathic abilities, really needs this phone on his desk.

Because in this world, there are still many people who understand his ability and don't want him to invade his brain at will.

For example, high-ranking government officials like New York State Congressman Freeman, who maintains a non-hostile relationship with him and occasionally speaks on the side of mutants, and Nick Fury, who is also a skinhead and is the current director of the Special Division's Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Bureau.

So every time this inconspicuous old-fashioned landline rings, it will always bring Professor X a big problem that can affect the survival pattern of mutants.

After exhaling slowly, Professor X picked up the phone under the watchful eyes of Cyclops and Stormgirl.

"Hey, hello, I'm Charles."

After Professor X picked up the phone, Cyclops and Storm Girl, who were sitting next to him, also held their breath and did not make a single sound, for fear of affecting the call.

As time passed, the two of them were still tormented by this inexplicable phone call, because the change in Professor X's face was too great.

From calm to sunny to cloudy, then to black clouds pressing down on the city, and finally it turned into consternation, and with a sentence of 'I know', after hanging up the phone, the torture of the two ended.

"Professor, whose call is it, what happened?" Seeing that Professor X put down the phone, the storm girl showed a crying and laughing expression, and hurriedly asked curiously.

After seeing that Cyclops was also looking at him at the same time, Professor X pretended to be calm and quipped, "Scott, you really got your crow's mouth right, we're in trouble!" ”

"What's the trouble?"

"The phone call just now was from Jean, she and John were detained by the other party, and the other party asked me to take you to get someone!" Thinking of the information revealed by Jean Grey on the phone, Professor X couldn't laugh or cry, but also felt a pain in his brain.

He really didn't expect that John the Fire Man would be so capable of causing trouble, and he didn't expect Ellis to have such strong strength!

"Leader? Professor, what the hell happened, Jean wasn't hurt, was he? As soon as Cyclops heard Professor X's words, he immediately couldn't sit still.

"Don't worry, Jean and John are not injured, and the other party shouldn't be too hostile, otherwise I wouldn't have specially asked Jean to inform me, and asked me to bring you all over to negotiate with him!"

After calming the laser eye, Professor X rubbed his head and continued, "But I still have to figure out what Ellis Jiang's idea is." ”

"Ellis Jiang?" Stormgirl casts a puzzled look at Professor X.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that Ellis Jiang is the owner of a pawn shop and the key person in Freeman's ability to cure Lily's red skin." Professor X only reacted after seeing the puzzled eyes of the two, and they still didn't know where Jean Grey had gone.

"Pawnshop owner?" Cyclops and Storm Girl looked at Professor X with a question mark on their faces again.

How could it be that the pawnshop owner, the man who could cure Lily and detain Jean Grey and John, shouldn't be a Frankenstein who is genetically incomparable, or a big man with some kind of magical powers?

"You heard it right, Ellis Jiang is indeed the owner of a pawn shop, but he is not simple, if you are not careful, we will probably plant him this time!" Professor X made a point of emphasizing to them again that he had 'kidnapped' Jean Grey and John's kidnappers.

…………

While calling Professor X, Jean Grey and Fireman have not wasted time, and have been secretly trying to mobilize the superpowers in their bodies.

It's a pity that the ability to be like an arm and a finger, no matter how hard the two of them try to control it now, they don't give a reaction.

So after making the call, I could only honestly sit back on the sofa opposite Ellis.

"That's it, why do you ask Professor X to bring only the X-Men, you should ask him to bring more people?" Ellis took Jean Grey's phone and was unhappy with her distress call.

This person has come less, how can he promote the Jiang pawnshop to the greatest extent!

"It doesn't take that many people, the X-Men led by the professor are enough to take you down, boy, just wait to be abused!" The burning man is a prisoner, and he is still a dead duck.

"Is there a place for you to speak?"

Ellis hated Burning Man, a guy who would evolve into two or five boys in the future, so he didn't give him a good look at it at all, controlled the absolute realm, and threw him directly from the sofa to the wall with a wave of his hand.

When he spat out the blood and was pulled back to the floor by gravity, he was frozen there again, and he was silenced by the way.

"What are you doing...... Jean Grey was about to get up to look at the burning man when Ellis reached out and pressed him back onto the couch when she saw the burning man's miserable appearance.

"Don't worry, just give him a little lesson, he won't die for a while." Seeing Jean Grey's eyes constantly glancing at the burning man, Ellis said lightly to her.

After hearing that Burning Man was fine, Ellis visibly felt Jean Grey's relief, and then began to close his eyes.

In fact, although Jean Grey is very worried about the injuries of the burning man, she is not stupid at all, she knows that she is now in a situation where people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, since she can't resist, it is better to recharge her energy quietly!

Let's wait for Professor X to come!

If Heaven would give Jean Grey another chance to choose, she swore that she would never easily step into the door of Jiang's pawnshop.

Because when facing Ellis, you are ten times more terrifying than Professor X who is facing a B-class mutant (level 4), and in front of him, all your efforts are useless, like a blank sheet of paper, which can be broken with a single stab.

He is so perverted, he is simply a god walking in the world!

Looking down on a mortal like her......

After fixing both of them, Ellis realized that he had nothing to do while waiting for Professor X to come to the pawnshop......

"Forget it, let's take advantage of this time to get used to the newly acquired strength first, and practice how to walk, otherwise you will get out of the pawnshop gate, fall a dog and eat on the street, and you will not lose the dead!"

After struggling for most of the day, he simply got up from the couch, held on to the back of the couch, and began to toddle around the couch like a baby.

Ten minutes later, Jean Grey, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, saw him fall six or seven times in succession, and finally couldn't help but speak: "What are you doing here?" ”

After Ellis stood up cautiously from the floor with the sofa in his hands, he looked at her dissatisfied: "Practice walking, can't you understand this?" ”

"Walking?"

Jean Grey mentally reminisced about it, and after she and Burning Man entered the house, Ellis really didn't get up from the couch, and asked incredulously, "You can't even walk?" ”

"You don't know how to walk, I call it practice walking, practice, understand?"

Ellis glanced at Jean Grey again dissatisfied, and found that she was about to open her mouth to ask again, and with a wave of his hand, he stopped her from speaking: "As far as you have a lot of questions, you are a hundred thousand whys!" ”
