There was a power outage at 8 a.m., and it only came in the afternoon, and the update was a little late.

―――――

Just when Zhang Yang thought it was over, a prompt continued to pop up.

"Since you changed the plot and saved the dead girl, she is full of gratitude to you, the depth of the Shijie plot exploration is increased by 5.7%, and an additional reward of 2000 universal points will be issued after returning to the system space."

The dead woman was rescued by herself, which Zhang Yang had not expected before, and it was an unexpected joy.

At this moment, there was an aftermath atmosphere in the cabin, Scott and Professor X were also successfully rescued, and some students couldn't help but hug each other and cry.

"Professor, are we going straight back to school? The night you left, Stryker and his army attacked the school, and the Steelmen fled with some of the students. ”

Logan asked.

Until now, because they were in a hurry, the Steelmen did not leave contact information with them, so Logan did not know what their current situation was.

"No, we need to go to Washington first, because Stryker's Jihua, this time the crisis has spread to all of humanity, and I need to do something."

Professor X shook his head, his eyes shining with wisdom.

"Understood, there's enough fuel to get us to Washington, everyone's seated, we're going to go."

Scot nodded, then typed Washington on the navigation map, and the navigator immediately indicated the shortest route to Washington, D.C., while the plane's radar began to work, detecting civil or military aircraft around the route to prevent collisions.

Rumble!

The main engine in the tail erupted in a surging reasoning, everyone in their seats, as if they had been pushed violently, and the plane left Lake Becari and headed in the direction of Washington.

The students were tired and hungry. Soon asleep in the cabin, Jane and Logan whispering something, the occasional laser interjecting that Wagner was talking to Professor X.

"Wagner, I know you didn't do it voluntarily, and you shouldn't be blamed for this incident."

Professor X persuaded Wagner.

"Thank you very much for your understanding, actually, if Stryker hadn't taken me away, I would still be in the New York Circus in Boston."

"The circus people are so afraid of you, do you hate them?"

The professor's question doesn't seem to be anything. In fact, it is to examine Wagner's mentality, not only is Magneto lacking people, but the X-Men also need to replenish fresh blood, and this time, Professor X has set his sights on Wagner and Zhang Yang.

"Nope. I just had mercy on them, which is why God sent me to save them. Not to mention. If I were them, I would probably be as horrified and disgusted as they were when I saw me like this. ”

Wagner, a devout Christian, listened to the two men's answers without speaking.

As a matter of fact. In the X-Men comics, Blue Devil Wagner Zuihou joins the X-Men, codenamed "Nightcrawler", and is an important character in the X-Men. However, because of the director's preference, the scene was deleted in the third part, and she did not appear at all, and was replaced by Katie, the woman who pierced the wall (played by the heroine of Inception).

Professor X is very satisfied with Wagner's temperament, as for blue skin, it is not a problem, the movie version of Professor X, the first mutant he met when he was a child, was the demon girl who came to his house to steal food, and lived and grew up before parting ways.

Professor X asked a few other questions, and already had a general understanding of Wagner in his heart, and then Wagner went to the back cabin, leaving a separate space for Professor X and Zhang Yang.

"You're mysterious."

This is Professor X's first sentence to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang was not surprised, his face was very ordinary.

"Zhang Yang, do you want to come to the mutant school? Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious, because I'm lonely, or do I want to try to master this liliang, or hate it, or whatever? ”

Professor X's wise eyes stared at Zhang Yang's expression, trying to see something from Zhang Yang's face, but unfortunately, Zhang Yang's face had been very calm, which made Professor X a little unpredictable.

With his own ability, Professor X, with Logan's consent, reviewed the skills before and after the incident, and became somewhat interested in Zhang Yang.

People who can control their superpowers, judgment, calmness, overall view, and a certain sense of command are very suitable to become X-Men.

However, Professor X has always been very cautious about the selection of X-Men, and the members of the X-Men are his henchmen, and both sides must trust each other, and they must be qualified in terms of ability, awareness, etc., and they have to be qualified in many aspects.

Zhang Yang's intentional layout from the beginning to the present, as well as the ability, awareness, and measures he has shown, make Professor X very satisfied, and it has met the bottom line in the professor's heart, but these are not enough to make Professor X loosen, and there are still some things that need to be personally investigated by Professor X.

If the inspection passes, Zhang Yang can join, and if he doesn't pass, Zhang Yang can only miss out on the X-Men.

Zhang Yang's first feeling to Professor X was mysterious, although he could sense Zhang Yang, but no matter what his ability, he couldn't enter his mind, and it seemed that there was a barrier that was always firmly protected around his body.

At first, Professor X thought that this was one of Zhang Yang's abilities, similar to the White Queen's crystallization, which could isolate all spiritual detection, but he always had a hunch that he couldn't seem to see through Zhang Yang.

"It's not annoying, at least my ability is still very convenient for me, and it doesn't cause too much trouble, I guess I want to learn to control it."

Zhang Yang knew that Professor X was conducting a routine inspection, and only after he was satisfied or had a comprehensive understanding of Zhang Yang would he consider whether to invite Zhang Yang to join the X-Men.

Unlike Iceman and Naughty, who have been in school for a while, he is a halfway monk, and Professor X doesn't know anything about himself, so he naturally has to think about it.

"Well, that's right, at least I also think that my ability is very convenient, which allows me to read many useful books, and mental power allows me to fully memorize and digest them, and understand them."

Professor X smiled.

"What do you think is the difference between mutants and normal humans, or rather. What do you think of mutants. ”

This question came out, and Professor X's face became serious, this question is very important.

If Zhang Yang was a radical and advocated revenge on humanity by force, like Magneto, then Professor X would not agree to Zhang Yang joining.

It is Professor X's personal credo to cooperate with humans and governments to ensure the peaceful coexistence of mutants and humans, and to avoid war and violence.

Zhang Yang thought about it for a while before he said cautiously: "Actually, in my opinion." Mutants are no different from ordinary humans at all, and just like the normal evolution of living things for millions of years, humans are constantly evolving, from single-celled organisms. From the sea to the land, from the apes to the present. We're always evolving. The process never stops. ”

is very aware of the flamboyance at the core of the X-Men story, and the answer to this question is naturally to be grasped and talked about eloquently.

"The creation of superpowers is a product of the normal evolution of human beings, maybe decades, hundreds of years from now. We're going to get out of the Earth, out of the solar system, out of the universe, maybe beyond the Earth. There are many creatures that we have never come into contact with, they may be very powerful, they may intend to invade the earth, and at that time, our ability will become a weapon for human beings to protect themselves. ”

Zhang Yang's words attracted the attention of everyone in the cabin, and when Zhang Yang was talking, a confident aura emerged from his body, and this breath was transmitted to everyone.

Professor X's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he was very surprised by Zhang Yang's performance, which seemed to be giving a powerful speech, which made Professor X think of Abraham, the 16th president of the United States. Lincoln, in the Emancipation Proclamation.

It is a feeling that can infect the audience and make everyone empathize, Professor X is keenly aware that there is a faint temperament of a leader from Zhang Yang's body.

"On August 27, 1963, Martin. Luther. King gave his famous speech "I Have a Dream", a declaration against racial discrimination that can actually be used on mutants. ”

Zhang Yang fell into a state of distraction, and a strange feeling erupted from his heart, allowing him to talk eloquently.

"I have a dream."

"I dream that one day, all mutants will be able to go to school, go shopping, and shop like normal humans, without having to hide and dodge because of their abilities."

"I dream of a day when all mutants will be able to use their abilities openly and without being expelled by the police and suppressed by the military."

"I dream that one day, all mutants will be able to participate in the dance party with normal humans, and proudly say who we are in the spotlight."

This one is from Martin. Luther. Kim's famous speech, almost everyone has heard of it, just like the urgent expectation revealed in the speech, calling on all black people to gather Liliang, Professor X, these mutants, also have a strong resonance in their hearts.

Professor X's eyes are a little moist, and it is his lifelong dream for mutants to be able to blend in with ordinary people.

Although he now seems to be glamorous, and legally runs a mutant school, and he himself considers himself a professor, everyone knows that this is just a piece of paradise that Professor X has set up by himself, and when he leaves the school, he is still cold, puzzled and disgusted outside.

Logan and Jane don't know when they stopped talking, and with a look of remembrance on their faces, Logan remembered that he had killed his own father when he first discovered that he could stretch out his bone claws.

When Jane remembered her abilities, everything around the room flew up.

Wagner remembered that when he was picked up by the previous director of the Berlin Circus, he looked at him with concern in his eyes.

Cyclops remembers the first time he discovered his abilities, burning through the fourth-story roof of the school building.

Dead Girl remembered the sweet smile her sister had on her face when she first discovered her abilities.

Naughty remembers when she and her boyfriend kissed, because her ability almost caused the other to die.

"At the end of the day, we are no different from normal humans." Zhang Yang glanced at everyone in the cabin and said Zuihou's summary:

"Because we are just a group of people who have been at the forefront of the long evolution of mankind." (To be continued......)
