029 Visit the Legend

Jean's troubles cannot be easily eliminated, and Auroro's troubles must be slowly dissipated, but as time passes, with Eric's help, they will eventually find a solution, because time is the most effective cure for heart disease.

As the days passed, Eric's training of the students was fruitful, not that they could fly into the sky with their newly learned tricks and never be carefree, but that they gradually learned to use their abilities flexibly, and their talent was no longer a cold pistol, which could only be used as a weapon for attack and defense, but into an invisible and flexible hand, or a pair of magical wings, which began to make life convenient for young people. This convenience, like the novelty that has appeared in human society in the past, like the advent of the washing machine, which freed housewives from heavy physical labor, will now also make mutants rediscover themselves, and they will understand that they are not time bombs, but favored by God.

During this period, Eric not only conducted various training sessions for the students, but also often took them to learn about external news. It is often said that contemporary Americans only need newspapers and television to make a lifetime of work, which shows the importance of information. But the young people of the academy are consciously or unconsciously cut off from the outside world, even if a shocking piece of news is born less than five miles from the academy, they are indifferent.

They are Robinson adrift in this icy world, and the Academy is an island in the heart of the vast sea.

All Eric had to do was grab their ears and throw them overboard.

At first, the work didn't go well. Just because young people want to go outside for a ride doesn't mean they can really handle things related to the outside world very well. They are deeply wounded, have been out of society for a long time, and are as alert as hedgehogs breaking into people's homes---- which is of course necessary for mutants, but being too sensitive can also lead them to the abyss. Eric hopes that these young people will grow into superstars in the future, leading trends and being admired and followed by the world, rather than being like those freaks who have never met talents, and suddenly become anti-social murderers when they encounter some blows.

Fortunately, it is not too difficult to achieve this goal, no matter what the situation in the country is, the mainstream public opinion is always biased towards the positive, as long as you have enough money in your pocket, you can enjoy the good. It's really easy to confuse these hairy boys, under Eric's guidance, these guys began to have some expectations for their future, they fantasized about how to use their natural abilities to their own advantage under the premise of ensuring safety, and then gain the approval of their parents, the appreciation of society, and the favor of big-breasted girls---- the first wish came from Bobby, and the last one belonged to John---- although some of the expectations were not very reliable, but basically they were still simple young people.

Eric showed them the financial news, gave them a superficial understanding of wealth, and by the way, saw the luxury and luxury of the rich guys; Take them to read newspaper clippings and let them analyze the truth of the news report by themselves, so that they have a deep enough understanding of the two sides of the media; In addition, there are reports of their peers, from which young people can see how ordinary people who are similar to themselves live, although the reserve makes them disdainful in their mouths and itchy in their hearts.

"Their bodies don't come from me, but I'm their spiritual father." Eric said.

Selena smiled at his words, she was always with her master, and knew best how much Eric had done for the young people, and the time and time he had collided privately with certain conservative forces in order to maintain his own way of teaching.

In any case, the face of young people is changing by leaps and bounds, and they are maturing day by day.

On this day, it was Eric's teaching time, and the young people at this time were no longer resistant to training, they had long since adapted to the pressure, and they had become good horses that could run fast without a whip.

However, there was no training and no information to observe in this day's class.

"We went to visit a great man who made a legend." Eric said, his words immediately aroused the students' curiosity.

Eric didn't explain anything, he and Selena brought a few sets of yellow and black clothes, just like the retro-style Warrior uniform that Hank had prepared for him before, and the young people would wear them.

This is the first time that Xavier College students have openly interacted with members of the community as college students.

In the car, Eric gave them a brief introduction to the person he was going to take them to.

The venerable man was a legendary footballer who spent the first two decades of his life as a 23-year-old man who lost his leg in a car accident driven by his companion and was left in a state of loss to end his life, and was encouraged by his family to pursue his dream ---- become a professional footballer.

He had no achievements compared to the big names who decided the fate of the country, and his best result in life was helping his team become the runner-up of the major league competition, but he overcame the odds and made a sensation in the country with his prosthetic leg, and people were shouting his name and falling for his perseverance. Whether you like the sport or not, the scene of him swinging his wooden leg to score the winning goal from 35 yards out has become a well-known one.

He endured hardships, and bravely came out, and finally wrote his will into this era.

Led by Eric, the young people walked into a hospital where the venerable man, who was not in good health, was in rehab but insisted on meeting visitors from all over the country every day to share his experiences with everyone.

"Before that I was a dock worker, my daily job was to drive a forklift to move goods, and I wasn't very good at sports, and I just often fantasized about being the center of attention, cheering like a star on the green field." Facing the students from Xavier Academy, the respectable man said with a smile.

"Then I lost my leg and thought I would never be able to stand up on my own again, and then I thought I must be living in hell for the rest of my life, and I gave up all illusions and refused to speak or move, until one day my mother broke into the room and dragged me out of the bedroom, and I was lying in bed for a week and my body was a little smelly."

Talking about the events of that time, he still remembers it vividly.

"My parents drove me to the nearby court, it was a terrible day, it was blowing 10 winds, but there were still athletes training, they were shivering with cold, the ball was passed and blown back, every time they made a mistake, they had to run all the way to pick it up, the coach scolded them so much, but no one gave up. My father helped me through against the wind and asked them why they didn't give up, and they told my father that they didn't want to be losers. ”

"And so, I was drawn to their enthusiasm and passion, my family used all their savings to get me a handy prosthetic leg, I trained with those athletes, I became one of them, and after years of hard work, we ended up finishing second."

When he talked about the pessimism after the car accident, the young people present could feel his despair and sadness at that time, and along the way? A water, overcoming difficulties, the situation gradually improved, he began to dance with his eyebrows, the whole person was full of vitality, from a gloomy to colorful, until this short period of life is over, everyone still has a feeling of unfinished.

"I learned a lot from sports. We have a common goal, in order to achieve it requires everyone's efforts and cooperation with each other, the team members can feel that they are an inseparable part of the collective, the collective honor is the personal honor, the collective dream is the personal dream, and every progress of the collective comes from every individual self. When we come together as a team, everyone has to work towards the goal of scoring, sacrificing themselves to protect their teammates when necessary. ”

"I think that's what sports want to tell me: persistence, hard work, over, cooperation."

"The hardships of life are not just about us persevering, but about telling us why we have to persevere."

This gentleman infected everyone who visited with his enthusiasm, and everyone shook hands with him, which was regarded as an honor.

I shook hands with such a strong warrior, did I get anything out of him---- and when the students thought so, Eric's lesson was a success.

In fact, that's what they think, no one cares about the difference between ordinary people and mutants anymore, and the greatness in human nature is beyond the ethnic group.

On the way back, the young people remained silent, silently thinking about their past.

They also had dark years, because of their mutant status, they were ostracized by their family and friends, and they had to live in the world.

Compared with the lucky ones among ordinary people, they are unlucky, and they have to suffer undeserved bad luck at a young age.

But how fortunate they were compared to the unfortunate ones that the Academy had taken them in and they were able to recuperate.

In the past, such experiences were the root of their hatred of ordinary people and their rejection of ordinary lifestyles, but now they began to wonder if there was a way to turn their lives around and change their fate like that venerable person.

They thought a lot about it in a short period of time, and all kinds of thoughts came to their minds, but most of them were plausible and clueless, and gradually they turned their eyes to their mentor, the man who brought them to visit must have his ideas, and he must be able to show a way for himself.

They remember that it was his parents who came to rescue the venerable gentleman from the darkness when he was in a desperate situation. Mr. Eric, if you can save us from the same desperate situation as our parents, we will treat you as our most respected father.
