In the search room underneath the academy, the professor removed the device from his head and exited the brainwave enhancement state.

"It's okay, they've boarded the plane and returned." He looked back.

Hank the Beast was standing behind him waiting for news, and when he heard his words, he finally put his heart at ease.

"Stryker didn't embarrass them?" Hank asked.

"It should be said the other way around, Eric...... His table xiàn out of my estimates. The professor was relieved and worried.

"Don't worry too much, it's not easy for a young man to do this, you can't ask him to be like you." Hank and he had been friends for decades, and it was impossible to guess what he was worried about when he saw his expression.

"I just think his appearance is too good." The professor was also a little amused by his own gains and losses. "Stryker's persuasiveness is strong, but he's like a kid in front of Eric, and we've chosen a great successor."

"What could be worse than the state he was in before he appeared?" Hank said with his hands outstretched. "Now we have at least hope. Charles ----"

He called the professor's name and said: "Charles, don't worry about the choices of young people, a generation has a generation's concept, we can't live for them, if you think his idea makes sense, then let them do it." ”

The professor nodded and said, "You're right. I used to think that I could do anything, and I always wanted to control others, but even Raven, who grew up together, left me. I knew that it wasn't Eric's persuasion, but Raven's own choice. When she grows up, she will inevitably leave home, and I never understood her thoughts, but actually pushed her...... I won't repeat that mistake. ”

This Eric is referring to the real Magneto, who had worked together when they were younger, but later had a disagreement, and Raven chose to leave. The professor was a little gloomy at the mention of his youth, and Hank hurriedly comforted him, and the two old men encouraged each other to slowly walk out of the empty room.

"By the way, I'll have to get Auroro to clean up and make room for more, and soon we'll have a new companion on board, and Eric has rescued a fellow human from Stryker, hoping she'll like us here." The professor remembered the last image he saw in the search room, and hurriedly said, as soon as the words came out, he suddenly came to his senses without waiting for Hank to remind him: "Look at my brain, Auroro and Eric went out together, I have to find Jean to do this." ”

Hank shook his head, this old friend was really a little old. He felt a little sad in his heart, but he didn't show it, and accompanied the professor out of the basement.

At this time, Auroro was approaching Westchester in a flying machine, and unlike when he left, the young people were dejected on the way back, they had just suffered the biggest setback of their lives, and they were almost wiped out in a one-on-one battle with Stryker's men.

This result is really hard enough for them. As a mutant who is ahead of humanity in evolution, it is simply a fantasy to be defeated by a group of ordinary people in a fair competition, but the unreasonable result is just like this.

Burning Man John, who was knocked over by an opponent with a punch before the lighter was used, couldn't get up again.

Babi, the Iceman, learned from his friend's experience to avoid a surprise attack and hit his opponent, but because of his negligence, he was defeated by the soldiers who endured the pain of freezing.

Colossus Pete, who was the last man to lose, was given the steel and iron bones that made him invincible in hand-to-hand combat, but he lost his vigilance and was knocked to the ground by a Jiu-Jitsu opponent.

Needless to say, the remaining girls have their own flaws and wills, and it is difficult to show their strength against these human elites who are good at dealing with mutants, and the only victor is the mischievous Marie, who seizes the fleeting opportunity with her own stoicism and uses her abilities to take down her opponents, which makes her friends look at her with admiration.

This result is not unexpected by Eric, young people always have a higher heart than the sky, thinking that with their own ability, the world can be reached, and only when they hit a wall and hit their heads will they understand that the world is not as simple as they think. Their potential is so high that they have confused their eyes and confuse their future achievements with their current level, and if this is not a practice match but a race of life and death, they have already lost their lives.

Let them immerse themselves in frustration and blame themselves now, the more painful the defeat this time, the more they will remember the lesson of this time, and only then can they recognize themselves and work hard.

"How is she?" Eric ignored the students, looked at the strange woman who was taken on the plane by himself and asked, this is the mutant he found in Stryker's underground base, black and yellow-skinned, very beautiful, from the physical characteristics it looks like she has been modified, she can turn her nails into long alloy blades, very sharp, just like Logan's exotic sisters. Stryker could have hallucinated Jason to obey orders, but after the failed raid on the Academy, he lost his means of controlling the mutants, and the woman woke up.

"She's fine, just a little weak." Selena replied. She showed her skills today, not only did she complete the task assigned to her by Eric, protecting the students from accidental injuries in the competition, but also easily defeated the well-trained opponent with her rich combat experience and controlled the situation when the soldiers were reluctant to make trouble and took the opportunity to threaten them. This took Auroro and the students by surprise, they had always thought that Selena, who had no special abilities, was a vase that Eric had found from outside, and now they finally knew that she was not.

In terms of close combat, Auroro is also much inferior to her, and I believe that this time will make them respect each other in the future.

As for the mutant from the East, Eric remembers that she also has a great skill to beat a strong man like Logan to the point of a wolf, and when she recovers, the academy will have another strong member.

Under the control of Auroro, the aircraft quickly returned to the academy, and after stopping, perhaps because it was difficult to face the classmates, the students were silent, and Katie, who had a relatively weak personality, sobbed. The heroes who saved the people last time are the losers this time, and they really can't accept this drastic turn of events, and the shame of defeat makes them shameless.

Eric clapped his hands to draw their attention, he had to say something so that the young men would not get into the horns of the bull and lose their self-confidence, which would be counterproductive.

"I expected your watch to be ugly today, in fact, it was precisely because I guessed that there would be such a result, so I took you to Stryker, I want to borrow his hand to let you know that you are not human."

"For a long time, you have thought that the outside world is full of dangers, full of enemies with bad intentions, and you want to protect yourself from harm, and on the other hand, you have been arrogant, believing that you are superior to human beings, and that you are born to belong to a higher class by virtue of your talents. I would say that you are wrong, that you are not able to know humanity and not see yourself clearly, that you are so delved by your potential that you cannot find your own way, that you cannot really make yourself strong. Today's lesson should wake you up, and you have learned for yourself that even ordinary human beings with no talent can defeat powerful beings with good training and correct tactics. ”

"It's not a shame to be knocked down by ordinary people, the real shame is to know that you are backward and refuse to admit it. I believe there are no such cowards among my students, so I have given you a task today, and I want you to go back and think about why you are failing, and then give me the answers, and I will discuss these issues with you specifically. ”

Eric gave homework to the students, and his words made the young people feel better, and Katie finally stopped her tears after being persuaded by her friends, and they staggered to their feet and walked out of the aircraft.

"Can we go out later?" John asked as he passed Eric's side.

"Of course. Otherwise, why let you take this lesson, it is less risky to stay in school and be a good baby. I told you that today's failure will be the step of tomorrow's progress, you have been trained for several years, and now it is just for you to adjust your attitude and show your strength. ”

"I was just too careless, I didn't expect them to be so mean, if I was a little more careful, I wouldn't be attacked, then I would burn my opponent to black coal." John muttered.

"There are no ifs." Pete walked with his head down, he felt that he was the most humiliating person, and that Coulix should not have such a revelation.

"The rules are very bad for us, aren't they, we can only use the ability once, and the time is very short, and it will be over before I can react." Alicent grumbled, but Bobby interrupted her.

"Mr. Eric said that the real fight doesn't last long, maybe it can be decided in a few seconds, and a match like today is still rare in reality, and I will never make the same mistake next time, I will concentrate until I am sure of winning and will not leave my opponent a chance."

Bobby clenched her fists and said earnestly, and the little mischievous Mary nodded her head on the side.

The students leave, and Selena winks at Eric and takes the female mutants out to settle. Then Auroro walked over and looked at Eric with a complicated look in his eyes.

"They have indeed been taught a profound lesson, and your purpose has been achieved?"

"This is just the first step." Eric replied lightly. "They're going to rise from defeat and come out stronger, and then there's still a long way to go, but the future of mutants is in them, and I'm convinced of that."

"So, before they go their own way, can I invite you to dinner?" Auroro said, but his eyes were aside, not daring to look at anyone.

"I can't ask for it." Eric laughed, feeling he was going to have a good night.
