On the top floor of Tony's Stark Industries Building in New York, Tony, who had just returned from S.H.I.E.L.D.D. headquarters in Washington, was getting ready to rest. In the past two days, in order to find Lin Rui, Tony has not been given a good rest.

During the day today, Lin Rui's parents also contacted Tony and wanted to ask when Lin Rui would come home. After all, in the past, even if Lin Rui came to Tony's side for an "experiment", he would call home, but this time he couldn't get in touch. Thinking of the previous attack on him, Lin Rui's parents were very worried about their son's safety.

Regarding Lin Rui's parents' inquiry, Tony could only say that they were now conducting an experiment with a very high level of secrecy, and the experiment was completely closed and could not contact the outside world. For Tony's explanation, Lin Rui's parents also accepted it, after all, it was Tony Stark himself.

However, Tony knew that he was giving unwarranted promises, and he took on a lot of pressure in his heart. If Lin Rui hadn't been found in the end, or had died with the Red Skull when he was found, then the blow to Lin Rui's parents would not be ordinary. However, Tony couldn't help it, and he couldn't believe that Lin Rui, such a clever guy, would die with the Red Skull like this.

Moreover, the establishment of the Earth Federation was proposed by Lin Rui, although Lin Rui's Guardian Alliance seemed to be a not strong force, but Tony knew the important role that Lin Rui played in this. If it weren't for Lin Rui, although Tony and the others would still work hard to accomplish this goal, they might not be so well reconciled with each other.

"Jarvis, if there's anything about Jackson, alert me right away. Before the break, Tony said to Jarvis.

In order to find Lin Rui, Tony has activated the energy of the behemoth of Stark Industries 100%, and wherever Tony Stark can influence, he is trying to find Phantom Knight and Red Skull. Tony also threw out a lot of money for this. Of course, in order to find Lin Rui, these are all worth it.

"Yes, sir. Hearing Tony's words, Jarvis responded calmly.

By then, Tony had fallen asleep, he was too tired. As for Jarvis, he is constantly looking for the latest news from Phantom Knight on the entire world's network. After self-upgrading, Jarvis's ability seems to have been improved again, and in the online marine world, Jarvis is like a free whale constantly obtaining all kinds of information, and then analyzing and finally summarizing.

"Jackson, if you're still alive, where the hell are you now?" Analyzing the news about Phantom Knight on the Internet, Jarvis had this question in his core.

......

While Tony was still trying to find the missing Lin Rui and Red Skull, Professor Charles was discussing something in an office with a group of X-Men at Xavier Youth Academy, far from New York City. The iceman, who was not completely healed from his serious injury last time, also sat in a chair with a serious expression on his face.

"The mutants captured from the Hydra base this time are being treated, but it will take a lot of time to get them back to normal. "As the leader of this operation, Storm Girl is reporting on the mutants whose consciousness has been controlled by them.

"Well, I've also checked their situation, and they're affected by hallucinations created by psychic mutants, and they're still being controlled by hypnosis in the later stage. So, in order not to cause secondary damage to their consciousness, it is right to take your time. Hearing the Storm Girl's words, Professor Charles, who was sitting in a wheelchair behind the desk, replied with a calm face.

After personally inspecting the situation of those mutants, Professor Charles sensed the abilities of a very capable psychic mutant, and that person's mutant level should be very high. Professor Charles's strength lies in telepathy and direct control of the mind, and that person's ability should be to use illusions to achieve direct goals, and the mutant ability is also very powerful, at least not weaker than Charles.

For such a powerful psychic mutant, and he is good at creating illusion controllers, Professor Charles felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while. However, that powerful mutant should not belong to Hydra, and the most likely is a mutant organization related to Hydra.

Professor Charles is not without suspicion of the Mutant Brotherhood led by Magneto, but with Charles's understanding of the Mutant Brotherhood, there is no such powerful mutant who can control people on their side. In order to prevent Charles's telepathy, Magneto's special helmet is worn at all times, and he is accompanied by a mentally loyal mutant to help him shield him from Charles's detection.

So Professor Charles still knows a lot about who is around Magneto. Charles can be sure that Magneto Eric doesn't have such a powerful psychic mutant by his side.

"Flashing their side has not been able to find the brother and sister, it seems that they are really hiding. After Professor Charles had answered, Storm Girl reported another situation.

In the previous attack against Hydra, the Quicksilver siblings directly confronted the intercepted X-Men during the battle, and after a battle, Scarlet Witch was injured a lot, if it weren't for the fact that she finally burst out of her mind to repel all the X-Men at that time, Quicksilver would not have much chance to take her away.

Although the outbreak of the Crimson Witch caused them to flee temporarily, Professor Charles's mental power had already locked on them, and he sent a team of three people to chase them. This chase lasted all day, and just when Quicksilver was about to hold on, the Scarlet Witch, who had regained some of her abilities, broke out again and shattered Professor Charles's mental lock, and then Quicksilver fought with the last of her strength to take them away in an instant.

In this way, the three of them who had been chasing for a whole day finally lost the trace of the Quicksilver siblings. Although the three of them continued to search for a while, they didn't find anything, and the Quicksilver brothers and sisters did escape.

"At that time, my mental power was dissipated, and I knew that they would escape, and we would always pay attention to this brother and sister. "For the Quicksilver siblings, Charles still cares a lot. After all, they are very capable, almost relying on the strength of two people against a six-member X-Men team.

"What about Phantom Knight? Can't we do something about it?" Listening to Professor Charles's constant talk about this operation, the iceman sitting in the corner finally couldn't help but speak.

Hearing Iceman's words, the eyes of the X-Men in the office flashed. For this street hero who has a good relationship with mutants, the X-Men are very fond of it. However, in that case, probably only Iron Man and Spider-Man would blindly think that Phantom Knight is still alive.

"Bob, there's very little we can do about this. I've searched for Phantom Knight with my light brain, but I haven't found it. Knowing that the relationship between the Iceman and Phantom Knight is good, Professor Charles replied after a few seconds of silence.

Professor Charles also regrets what happened to Phantom Knight. After all, Phantom Knight pulled Professor Charles into the group that formed the Earth Federation. If Phantom Knight did die, Professor Charles felt that this great goal might have problems in the early stages.

"I won't believe he's dead!" he whispered dissatisfiedly, and the Iceman had already pushed his wheelchair out of the office alone. Katie the Phantom Cat saw her boyfriend like this, so she had to go out.

Watching the Iceman leave, Professor Charles had no expression. Now the X-Men, and the entire mutant race, need a change, and Professor Charles is ready to lead it. Whether Phantom Knight is dead or not, Professor Charles has decided not to be silent any longer.
