Chapter 113: X-Men
Early the next morning, Alex sat in the renovated living room on the second floor and watched the TV show, of course, this was not what he wanted to watch, but it was specially opened for Charis.
Next to her, Xia Ruisi sat upright on the sofa and watched TV intently.
According to John, watching some interesting programs through Guรฒ can greatly alleviate Charis's strangeness around her surroundings and better integrate into their small group.
Although, Alex also agrees with their statement, but he thinks it is better to send Charis to Charles College, after all, humans are social animals!
Speaking of which, Alex couldn't help but be full of resentment towards Ganata.
After this person brought Xia Ruisi back, he threw the girl directly to Alex and the three to take care of, and then became a big shopkeeper himself, and now he doesn't know where he has gone.
Boredom watching TV programs, Alex was bored at this time.
Originally, he had planned to go and look around Johnny, but after thinking about it, he wisely gave up the idea.
Ever since I saw that boy Peter Parker yesterday, based on the same daring and thrill-seeking (to die!). Johnny and him hit it off at first sight, and the friendship between the two skyrocketed, and in just one day, it became like a "wolf bรจi for a traitor" who had been friends for decades, and the relationship was so good that it was outrageous.
Alex is sure that if he messes with them, it won't be long before New York has an extra group of superheroes dedicated to death!
And if they let Reed, Charles, and Nick Fury know about it......
He really can't afford to be sad!
"Ding Dong ~ Ding Dong ~ Ding Dong ......"
When he was racking his brain to think about how to pass the time, suddenly, Alex's mobile phone rang, and he took out his phone to see that it was Charles.
Hearing the phone ringing, Charis turned her head to look, Alex smiled apologetically and answered the phone, "Hey, Charles, is there anything wrong with calling so early?" โ
"The first X-Men have all arrived, and I wanted to ask when you will be back." Charles's voice came from his phone, and he could hear that he was very proud now.
"Sounds like you're pretty confident in the X-Men you've found!" Hearing the smugness in Charles's tone, Alex couldn't help but tease the other party slightly, and then replied with a chuckle, "I can go over at any time, if you feel the need, I can rush back to Sichestesfield right now." โ
"Of course it would be nice if I could rush back as soon as possible, I can't wait to see how surprised you look."
Hearing this, Alex couldn't help but be curious: "Okay, I'll rush over immediately, I want to see what kind of member makes you have so much confidence." โ
"We'll see."
Charles's smiling voice rang, and Alex also hung up the phone with a smile, which made Charles, who has always been steady, show such obvious pride, Alex became more and more curious about the members of the first X-Men.
"Are you going out?" Charis asked.
Looking at Charis, who was still a little unable to let go, Alex's heart turned a few times, and suddenly said, "I'm going to the mutant school in West Chester, do you want to go together?" โ
"Yes!"
Contrary to Alex's expectations, Xia Ruisi agreed without thinking about it, Alex only thought that she would timidly choose to refuse, but she didn't know that even when this girl was arrested and carried out by aliens for all kinds of real things, she still didn't give up being friends with other mutants, she showed her timidity in front of Alex, but it was just a strangeness when they met for the first time.
Although he was a little surprised by Xia Ruisi's appearance, Alex was quite happy to see this change, and he immediately said, "Okay, let's go now." โ
"Why don't you say a word to Uncle John and Arsen?"
"I don't need to tell them, I know I'm the boss! And these two guys have been closely watched by reporters and the media lately, and if we are seen, it will be troublesome. โ
With a disdain for John and a curiosity for the X-Men, Alex took Charis to the balcony, and with a movement of his mind, the invisible force field instantly spread around the two of them, rushing into the air and flying towards West Chester.
This time he used his superpower not Johnny's firing ability, but Susan's invisible force field, after all, it would be bad if it was not good to hurt Chariss in the flame state!
Alex's flight speed is very fast, unlike running on the ground, flying in the sky doesn't have to think so much, just look at the target and rush over. After Alex entered the flight state, the speed at which he flew with Chareth was already more than five times the speed of sound, and this was not the speed at which he was flying at full strength!
If he hadn't been worried that the speed would cause Xia Ruisi's discomfort, he could have increased this value a lot.
To Alex's surprise, Charis was not afraid or surprised by the flight in this state, but looked down with some interest.
It didn't take long for Alex to arrive in West Chester with Charis.
They could have arrived faster, but it was Alex's first time flying long distances, and he didn't know much about some of the precautions, so he almost flew somewhere else, so it took a little more time.
No sooner had he landed on the school's playground, and Alex immediately accepted Dow Charles's heart's mind.
Under Charles's guidance, Alex led Charis to a large hall, where there were already several people, sitting or standing, waiting for Alex.
"This is the X-Men you're proud of?" Walking up to Charles, he nodded quietly, whispered, reached out and took the text handed over by Charles, and carefully checked these people in the hall.
Among these people are two of Alex's acquaintances, one is Scott Summers and the other is Jean Grey, and they have been aptly nicknamed "Cyclops" and "Surprise Girl" after joining the X-Men.
In addition to Scott and Jean, there are two other people here, one codenamed "Iceman", a boy named Bobby Drake, about Alex's age; Codenamed "Storm Girl", she is Auroro Munro, a black girl with white hair.
To Alex's surprise, only "Iceman" was not included in the first batch of X-Men, but appeared as an alternate, and to his surprise, Vanessa and Catherine (Phantom Cat) were also on the standby list, along with Anna Jasmine (Naughty Little), Parrot (Burning Man) and so on.
None of the alternates were present, except for the Iceman, who was here.
"If even the alternates have code names, why didn't you give Vanessa a code name, and why wasn't he included in the first batch of X-Men?" Alex asked, gesturing to the Iceman's name.
"As Vanessa's guardian and titular brother, I think you should have her code name. As for why the Iceman wasn't included in the first list, you can just take a closer look at the character introductions at the back. Charles smiled unsurprisingly.
Alex flipped through the text and couldn't help but gasp, "No wonder you're so confident in the first X-Men members, you can find so many omega-class mutants!" โ
In addition to Jean Grey, who has omega-level potential, the Iceman and Storm Girl on the list are also mutants with the same potential, in other words, there will be at least three omega-level mutants in the future X-Men. In addition, the people on the waiting list are also very powerful mutants, and their strength should not be underestimated.
To Alex's slight surprise, Vanessa actually has the same level of potential as Charles.
Looking closely at Iceman's file, Alex also understood why he was not on the first X-Men list. The mutants with omega-level potential present were all older than him, younger, less experienced, more lethal and more destructive, and lackluster than his own abilities, which was enough to keep him out of the list.
"It's unbelievable that you can come up with such a powerful combination!" Alex sighed.
"How? Surprised? Charles laughed.
"Indeed, I was taken aback."
Alex nodded matter-of-factly, he was indeed taken aback by Charles's big hand, there were actually two omega mutants in the newly formed X-Men who were enough to compete with the Dark Phoenix, who could have imagined?!!
