Chapter Seventy-Seven: Ranks
Charles's private room for Alex is not bad, with air conditioning, TV, refrigerator and all kinds of furniture, it can be seen that Charles has put some thought into it.
Satisfied with the room, Alex threw his head back on the bed and closed his eyes.
After a series of battles, although Alex's spirit and body were unprecedentedly abundant, his heart was inevitably tired, so he quickly fell asleep when he lay down.
When he woke up from his dream, the sun that had been setting in the west had already climbed up from the east.
Alex had slept more than one night!
"Ah~! Comfortable! Alex stretched, got out of bed, and then looked at the thin blanket on his body and the food on the table next to him.
"Someone?! Unexpectedly...... My vigilance has dropped so much! Alex shook his head reproachfully, as a lone wanderer who often robbed criminals and was often chased by criminals, Alex's vigilance just now was really low, if someone had just come in while he was sleeping and attacked, he probably wouldn't even know how he died!
"Be sure to pay attention in the future!" Secretly vigilant in his heart, Alex tidied up his military uniform, walked to the table and sat down, and ate his meal.
"It's time to change this uniform, huh...... Today is Saturday, and the students at Charles School should have two days off, so it is better to take Vanessa to buy some clothes. Alex thought as he ate, "Speaking of which, I've never bought clothes or shoes for Vanessa, and I'm really derelict in my duty as a guardian!" ”
Alex quickly solved the meal in front of him, but said in his heart: "It's decided, go and ask Charles now, what are the better shopping malls around, and then take Vanessa to have a good time for two days." ”
Just do it, Alex stood up and washed the dishes and dishes, and put the katana aside, he went out this time to buy clothes and shoes, not to fight, the katana was inconvenient to carry. Then, Alex took out a magnetic card from his pocket and walked out of the room with a smile: "Fortunately, this card was specially protected by me and not blown up, otherwise I would have bothered to buy a dress!" ”
Following the route in his memory, Alex walked to the principal's office, pushed the door and entered, where Charles was talking to Jean and Scott. Seeing Alex come in, Charles stopped talking, motioned for Jean and Scott to leave, and then said with a smile: "It seems that this time the incident has exhausted you, and you have slept for so long!" ”
"It's alright!" Alex waved his hand, sat down casually, and said straight to the point, "I came to ask if there are any holidays at school, and I want to take Vanessa out for a walk." ”
Charles laughed: "Of course, from noon on Saturday to Monday morning every week, this short period of time is a school holiday, and students are free to choose whether to go out or stay in school. Of course, for the safety of students, students who choose to go out must first submit relevant reports to the school, so students who stay in school are not so troublesome. ”
"Well, that's how it should be." Alex nodded in agreement, the children at Charles' school were mutants who had not yet mastered their abilities, and it would be a bad thing if they were out in trouble or abducted by someone with a heart. Therefore, although Alex felt that the procedures for leaving the school were complicated, he still felt that Charles did the right thing.
"Of course, if it's suitable for Alex to go out with you, then there will be no problem."
"I'm glad you think so highly of me."
"Hehe!!" Charles smiled lightly, "There is still some time before the holidays, how about it, do you want to hear about mutants and increase your knowledge?" ”
"No ......" was about to refuse, Alex suddenly stopped talking, Vanessa is also one of the mutants, knowing a little more about mutants is more beneficial to take care of Vanessa, thinking of this, Alex changed his mind, "If you are willing, I think I will be happy to hear it!" ”
"Alright, let's start with the mutant level."
"Mutants have ranks, too?" Alex expressed surprise, could it be that the innate abilities of mutants can also be divided into first, second, and so on?
Charles smiled faintly: "Although the abilities of mutants are innate, in order to take care of them more conveniently, I have divided them according to their potential and ability. ”
"Huh! This is similar to how other schools measure students by scores! ”
Ignoring Alex's quip, Charles continued: "One, Ipsilon-class - mutants who have failed to evolve, they have heavy flaws and weak abilities, usually do not have the appearance of ordinary people, but possess great strength. During my search for fellow mutants, I found that about 20% of the mutants were Ipsilon-class.
Second, it is the Delta class - this level of mutants has no heavy flaws, has the appearance of an ordinary person, and has weak abilities, but can control zhì. Among all mutants, this level accounts for at least 50%.
Three, the Double-Tier - The Double-Tier is almost as powerful as the Alpha-Class mutants, with the appearance of an ordinary person and powerful and useful mutant abilities, but it does not have full control over the power. There are about 10% of such mutants.
Fourth, the Alpha Class - The most powerful mutants known, they possess extremely powerful mutant traits without significant flaws. Only mutants below 10% are alpha-class. They have the appearance of ordinary people, as well as a powerful mutant ability that can control zhì freely, and they are the strongest level that mutants have proven. ”
"Confirmed? That is, there are stronger levels that have not been confirmed?! Alex was alert to hear Charles's words, since Charles used the words "confirmed", then, Alex could fully imagine that Charles's words meant that mutants should have a stronger level than the alpha class, but they haven't waited for it to be confirmed!
"You're smart!" Charles's face suddenly turned solemn, "Omega level, this is a level that has not yet been confirmed. Theoretically, they can control matter and energy, have unlimited potential and even immortality. All Omega-class mutants are Alpha-level, but not all Alpha-level can reach Omega-level! Also, since it's just a theory, I don't know if mutants of this level have flaws! ”
"You just said that you haven't confirmed it because you haven't seen a mutant of this level."
"No!" Unexpectedly, Charles said, "there is one in this school who has the qualifications to become an Omega-level mutant, and in the X-Men team that I am going to form, there may be two other mutants with the same qualifications." ”
"You don't think you're the guy in the school, are you?!" Alex laughed.
Charles shook his head, "No, it's not me!" Although my ability is very strong, I can only reach the alpha level, and the person I am talking about is someone you also know. ”
"I know that too." Alex thought about it carefully, and it seemed that the only people he knew here at Charles's school were Charles, Jean and Scott, not Charles......
"Jean and Scott, which one?" Alex blurted out.
"Jean, she's the one who has what it takes to be an Omega mutant."
"Shhh Alex gasped, he couldn't imagine that the girl who almost did it with him when they first met had such a terrifying talent? What a surprise!
According to Charles, omega-level mutants are capable of controlling matter and energy, possessing unlimited potential and even immortality! If all of this is true, Alex finds it hard to imagine how powerful the subject really is. The horror of the conversion of matter and energy, imagine the nuclear weapons that are feared by all countries!
Moreover, omega-level mutants have endless potential......
Thinking of this, Alex couldn't help but think of the big python Bunaki in the stick myth who could destroy the entire universe after devouring the Dragon Balls. Bunaki was killed on the spot by him with all his might, and the non-appearing omega-class mutant could have terrified Alex just by hearing it...... As soon as the two were compared, Alex sighed from the bottom of his heart: "This is the power that destroys the universe!" ”
Coming back from his conjecture, Alex looked at Charles strangely: "It's a good thing to have omega-level mutants, it can make all countries in the world maintain the most basic treatment of caring people, and even really achieve peace between humans and mutants, but why are you so solemn when you mention omega mutants?" ”
"You don't understand the risks!" Charles smiled bitterly, "Although Jean has the qualifications to become an Omega mutant, her mental state is beginning to appear unstable due to her too great potential, and she may get out of control at any time......"
At this time, Alex understood Charles's worries, if Jean broke out out of control, the consequences would be terrifying that no one expected, sleeping with a nuclear bomb, this should be the case!!
