Chapter 33 Suffering in the Bitter Temper
Returning to the academy with Phantom Cat, Leus sees a rather unexpected scene when he finds Anna and Simon.
In the front yard of the academy is a lawn with a large fountain in the middle, and at the edge of the pool, in addition to Anna and Simon, Professor X and Stormgirl are all around.
But that's not the point, the point is that Anna stretched out her hands to the pool, and under her hard manipulation, a finger-thick stream of water poked its head out of the pool like a water snake, but after only a dozen seconds, it became steady.
Anna smiled like a child, manipulating the water snake to swim around her, and Leus, who was not far away, also smiled when he saw it, and it was the first time he had seen Anna's smiling face since the morning.
"Lee, when are you going to leave?" Professor X had already spotted Leus watching.
Hearing the professor's words, Anna subconsciously looked at the entrance of the academy, and found the familiar figure, her heart was happy and joyful, she had just formally learned to use her abilities under the inspiration of the professor.
However, just as she was thinking about sharing her joy with Leus, she saw the beautiful brown-haired girl beside him, and the water snake in her hand suddenly lost control, and fell on the grass with a pop and turned into a puddle of water that seeped into the dirt.
"Right now, there's not a lot of time." Li Wusi replied briefly, he had just agreed to train with the Storm Girls, just to position his strength and better arrange the plan.
"Very well, good luck then." The professor smiled and nodded, and took his wheelchair to the academy.
"Anna, come on." Stormgirl gave Anna a meaningful smile and followed the professor back to the academy.
Leus looked at his three companions, raised his eyebrows, and said, "What are you stunned about, it's time for us to go." β
A few minutes later, the jeep was on.
"Lee, aren't you surprised that Anna is actually a mutant too!" Simon sat in the passenger seat and looked at the driver strangely.
Li Wusi glanced at the two girls in the back seat, and after they got in the car, they just chatted coldly, obviously not very fond of each other.
"I was surprised at first, and I didn't expect her to be one of us." Leus replied honestly.
"Then you can still be so calm, you are really young and old." Simon felt that he had lost unjustly that evening.
"But I already guessed it in the morning." Leus choked the big man with a word.
"Alright, this is it, you wait for me, we have a companion to join."
Leus suddenly stopped the car on the side of the road in a church, and the three of them waited only a moment before they saw a man in a cloak following him.
"We call him the Blue Devil, and his ability is teleportation, and in particular, this is a very kind young man."
Leus introduced casually, in fact, the process of convincing the Blue Devil was very simple, as soon as he told Anna about it, and then sincerely begged for his help, the servant who believed in the Lord obediently followed.
However, if Leus couldn't get the Blue Devil to stay before saving Anna's parents, then he would still leave, for a very simple reason, philosophy.
The Blue Devil has mercy on the world, his attitude towards humanity is even more excessive than that of the moderates of the X-Men, he is simply a mutant mother who can't fight back and scolds back, and the reason why he left the X-Men is that the concept is different, and most people's X-Men don't like humans very much, which makes him very uncomfortable.
The crowd quickly returned to the office building, Mieko had already prepared the private jet to Las Vegas, and Secretary McCoy had a lot of resources in his hands.
"Do you need a pilot?" Mieko asked everyone.
"No, you don't." Leus waved his hand and turned to look at everyone: "Before the official action, did you think about your code name?" β
"Blue Devil." Blue Devil Kert replied quickly.
"Of course I'm a phantom cat." Katie has also had her own nickname for a long time.
Simon and Anna were left, but Simon glanced at everyone and said slowly, "Okay, I'll just use my usual screen name 'Alien'." β
"And Anna?" Leus looked at Anna, who was a little overwhelmed, knowing that she hadn't fully adjusted to her new mutant status.
"What about you?" Anna looked at him with clear blue crystal eyes.
"Let's call him a prophet."
After Leus finished speaking, the phantom cat and the blue devil smiled, but they both knew that Leus was able to foresee the future.
"I'll talk about it later, I really can't think of it now." Anna shook her head eventually.
"Alright, let's go now."
The minister provided a business jet, the Legacy 650, which was of average type, excellent for easy operation and comfortable cabin environment, and everyone got on the plane one after another.
"Are you really good?" This is the voice of the other four except Leus.
"Okay."
Li Wusi walked to the cockpit with a calm face, and began to operate skillfully, the cabin radio sounded, and the plane ran for a while, although it was a rickety take-off, but it was still flying.
Not to mention the four poor guys in the cabin who were so frightened that their faces turned white, after Leus set his own route, he entered the shallow meditation very calmly.
In this state of mental precipitation, Leus summed up the training table he had just learned in X Academy, and he was still very satisfied with his record, after all, his strategy concept had been verified.
With the assistance of spiritual power, he can be like having eyes at 360 degrees all over his body, and he can't hide from sneak attacks in all directions, including the soles of his feet, and he can even use the ability to control things with his mind under a certain amount of Cheng DΓΉ to make some ingenious means.
For example, when a knife is slashed out, use mental power to push to speed up the attack, so that the opponent is caught off guard in the face of sudden acceleration; Or when dodging, he uses his mental power to forcibly control his body and make incredible twisting movements.
Psychic mutants and superpowers don't have strong bodies, nor do they have the ability to control the elements like Iceman and Magneto, and their psychic abilities are easy to target.
But it's definitely one of the most potential and shaping abilities, provided you have an imaginative and active mind, like Leus now.
Compared to other mutants, Leus plans to use his psychic and spiritual powers to rehearse the training process in the virtual reality in his mind.
Leus's idea was simple, to construct a personal training room directly in his mind, inspired by a movie called Inception, where he wanted to simulate a virtual reality training ground similar to an X-Men base, where he was the only one to fight an endless number of invaders and hone his combat skills.
Although this kind of combat skill cannot be exercised physically, the combat experience can be really improved, but when it is actually implemented, Leus quickly has a nervous breakdown.
"Ah!!h
Suppressed voices of pain came from the captain's room, and almost at the same moment, Anna and Katie both stood up.
Wide-eyed staring...... The two were stunned at first, then staggered their gazes, entered the captain's room without giving in to each other, and saw Leus lying on the chair.
His face was pale at this time, and his forehead was full of sweat, like a patient who had just recovered from a serious illness, writing weakness on his face.
"What's wrong with you?"
"It doesn't matter, does it?!"
Anna and Katie looked nervous, but Anna was more mature after all, and turned around and went back to the water dispenser in the cabin to fill a glass of warm water.
"Thanks, I'm fine."
Leus drank half a glass, took a few deep breaths, and felt his spirit slowly recover.
He looked at the two girls beside him gratefully, although it was still very difficult now, but after all, there were still some people who cared about him, and this was enough.
Although the second daughter was still worried, Lius really didn't seem to be in trouble, just like he had overused his ability, so he returned to the cabin.
However, they occasionally looked at each other, and they didn't even notice it, and there was already a faint hostility in each other's eyes, and it had to be said that women were naturally more sensitive to other people's feelings.
In the captain's room, half an hour later, Leus withdrew from the shallow meditation again, his eyes full of light, and his face full of surprise.
Although the idea just now is great, but to re-simulate the real illusion, it requires a lot of mental power and mental calculation power, and Leus has already exhausted all his power just by deducing part of the scene progress.
"But there are pros and cons, just after recovering all my strength, my mental and spiritual strength has increased a lot, and it is close to the effect of my deep meditation all night."
After a pause, Leus recalled the pain when he had just lost his strength, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across his face, and he resolutely closed his eyes and entered the spiritual world again, and continued to start the deduction of the training scene.
This is a training method that is ten times more effective than deep meditation, squeezing all the strength, and when he recovers again, he will become stronger because of the pain.
No pain, no gain!
