Chapter 22: One to Three

"Ellis, I'm Charles from Xavier's school, I'm here, why don't you invite me in the house for a cup of coffee and then we'll talk?"

When it was completely dark, and Ellis could already let go of the back of the couch and walk around the pawnshop slowly and slowly twice, Professor X finally led his people to the pawn shop.

However, to Ellis's surprise, the X-Men did not choose to break into the door and rescue Jean Grey and Burning Man in a hurricane like a Hollywood blockbuster.

On the contrary, after knocking on the door twice politely, he took the initiative to say hello through the door of the pawn shop like an old friend.

This made me fantasize countless times in my heart, when the X-Men found that the gate that had been specially blessed by the Absolute Realm, whether it was attacked by fire, flooded or laser cut, could not be opened.

Ellis, who could only show each other a helpless and embarrassed expression, what a funny picture it would be, had a feeling of punching cotton with a fist.

"It's good, it's time for the pawn shop to show you the magic and omnipotence of the pawn shop!"

When Ellis thought that with the arrival of Professor X, there might be a large number of potential mutant customers in the future, and in the blink of an eye, his mood changed a little better.

However, when he passed through the Absolute Realm and saw that except for a young man who was pushing a wheelchair and wearing red sunglasses for Professor X, there was only one man and one woman standing next to him, and his mood that had just improved instantly fell to the bottom.

Not to mention that I haven't seen the modified jet plane that appeared countless times in the movies of my previous life in the air, and what is even more infuriating is that Professor X didn't even bring all the people from the X-Men.

Counting the main Professor X, there are only four people here, just enough to get together a table of mahjong!

This made Ellis, who wanted to promote the omnipotence of Jiang's pawnshop to all X-Men, catch a few potential customers (Kaizi) who had special needs and were willing to pawn, and wanted to use the absolute realm to deter them and avoid follow-up troubles, was completely disappointed!

So when he opened the door, he made up his mind in his heart, even if he really tore his face with Professor X, he would never let him go easily, and he had to wait for him to bring more mutants and accept the bombardment of the pawn shop's 'small advertisements' before he could continue to negotiate the release of the hostages.

"Ellis Jiang?"

After the door of the pawn shop was opened, except for Professor X, who had already seen Ellis's appearance in Freeman's mind, the other three were frozen because of his age.

Because of the mixed Chinese and American race, Ellis's age definitely does not look more than twenty years old, which is really a bit different from the image of the big boss they imagined.

Even mutants who have awakened the X gene and have superpowers need to accumulate over time before they can gradually develop and control the powerful power given by the X gene.

For example, Professor X and Magneto, who are now carrying a living space for mutants, have achieved their powerful strength after awakening their superpowers from their youth, and through continuous accumulation and tempering.

Ellis ignored their words, but after glancing at Professor X and his group of four, he stretched out his head to look at the empty streets on both sides of the pawn shop, and then asked, "You four are here?" ”

"Yes, just the four of us." Professor X also looked at Ellis, who was standing inside the door.

"Since you're here, let's come in and talk!" After receiving Professor X's affirmation, the disappointed Ellis threw down a sentence and turned back to the pawn shop, leaving the group of four directly out of the door.

"This guy has a lot of personality!" Stormgirl looked at Ellis's back, muttered for a moment, and then said to the three of them.

"It's quite individual, and this indifferent attitude that rejects people thousands of miles away has to compete with the girl you brought back." The young man, whom Ellis didn't know, agreed after thinking about it.

"Let's go in too!" Professor X glanced at the exterior wall of the pawn shop that had left a deep impression on him before he interrupted the ridicule between the two.

When Professor X and the four of them entered the pawn shop, they saw the burning man lying on the wall with a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, and Jean Grey sitting motionless on the sofa.

"John, are you alright?" The young boy hurried to the burning man and lifted him up in a vegetative state.

It's a pity that the frozen fire man can't open his mouth at all, but fortunately, the young boy who has been with the fire man for a long time quickly understood his situation, and quickly asked Professor X for help: "Professor, John is speechless. ”

Professor X nodded at the young boy, signaled him to be calm, and then came to Jean Grey's couch, gave her another reassuring look, and then looked at Ellis, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, with his legs crossed:

"Ellis, can you first untie the ban on Jean and John, and then we can talk about your requirements in detail?"

In fact, Professor X, Cyclops, and Storm, three battle-hardened people, noticed the abnormalities of Burning Man and Jean Grey when they first entered the house.

However, except for the burning man who fell in the corner and vomited some blood, there were no other injuries on the two of them, so the three of them did not directly fight Ellis.

Otherwise, even if Professor X was a little jealous of the mysterious Ellis, and was unwilling to be tough before he found out his details, Laser Eye, who has always had a crush on Jean Grey, and her best friend Storm Girl, would never be so calm.

"Talk?"

Ellis glanced at Cyclops and Stormgirl standing beside Professor X with a smile, and deliberately asked rhetorically, "Why don't we have to fight first, wait until I've completely convinced you, and then sit down and talk?" ”

"You want to fight first?" Ellis's questioning, which did not follow the routine, left Professor X speechless.

After pondering for a moment, he realized that it was not impossible to let Cyclops or Stormgirl fight him first.

In this way, not only can he further test his truth, but also let him know that the X-Men are not easy to mess with, and give him a little warning by the way.

As for what to do if Cyclops can't beat Ellis, to be honest, Professor X has really thought about this.

Because of the last temptation, Professor X knew that Ellis could defend against his telepathic abilities, although he didn't know if it was his own strength or if he used other means.

But his first combat force, when facing Ellis, he has indeed become the least threatening figure.

With the three Cyclops alone, Professor X is really not sure if they can contain the mysterious Ellis.

However, after meeting Ellis and Jean Grey, who were detained by him, Professor X didn't think that Cyclops and the others really lost the fight, and his group would be in danger of their lives.

Since Ellis has always been willing to negotiate with him, it is certain that he will not easily fight with his group.

And judging from the job postings hanging outside the door, Ellis also has no discriminatory and hostile thoughts towards mutants......

So Professor X simply followed Ellis's words and said, "If you have to fight first before you are willing to lift the ban on Jean Grey and John, that's fine." ”

"I advise you to go together, otherwise you won't have a chance if I do it." Ellis glanced lazily at Cyclops and Storm Girl, who had endured it for a long time without making a sound, and said shamelessly (indeed shameless, typical backstage, using the system to suppress people).

"You're confident, I hope you'll be so confident later!" Without Professor X's orders, after the long-suppressed laser eye snorted coldly, he reached out and pressed the side of his sunglasses.

As his words fell, a red laser blast shot out of his eyes and ran towards Ellis on the couch.

"This skill is good, not only can it be used to light at night, but it can also be used to cut something when you go camping!" Ellis manipulated the Absolute Realm to catch the menacing laser blast like a fireball fired by the Torch Catcher, and then opened his mouth to hit the Laser Eye.

"Damn it!" When the experienced laser saw Ellis and block the laser shockwave he sent out so easily, he knew that he couldn't defeat Ellis on his own.

So after sending out a few laser shockwaves that were thicker and faster than just now at Ellis, he beckoned his partner: "Oloro, Bobby, let's go together." ”

"Understood!"

After the other two answered, Storm Girl immediately turned on her abilities, and as her eyes gradually turned into whites, a strong wind blew in the pawn shop, and a lightning bolt swept outside the house from time to time.

The young man named Bobby, who had been holding the fire man, also had a little cold on his hands, which made the temperature in the pawn shop drop by two degrees.
