Chapter 273: Growth
It was daylight when the three Charles returned to the CIA.
Their operation went smoothly this time, although they didn't run into Xiao, but they caught the White Queen.
The White Queen was able to make herself a diamond all over, and with this ability, she resisted Charles's psychic abilities.
But Eric broke the defense, so she couldn't be diamondized for the time being, so Charles figured out Shaw's whole plan from the woman's mind, and knew that this crazy guy was going to start World War III.
They hurried back to warn them, but they didn't expect the base to be destroyed, all the agents were dead, and only Raven survived.
When he arrived at the base, Charles saw Raven and the others sitting on a bench in front of the base.
Seeing that nothing happened to these young people, Charles couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He hugged Raven and said heartily, "Thank goodness, you're okay." ”
Raven looked at the corner of the bench, "We are all alive, thank you Mr. John." ”
"Mr. John?" Charles looked in Raven's direction, and his eyes fell on Azu.
He habitually wanted to probe Azu's memories, but just as he was invading Azu's brain, he heard a voice say.
"If I were you, I wouldn't do that, Charles."
"It's rude."
He saw Azu look over, smiled, and tapped his head slightly.
Charles hurriedly withdrew from Azu's brain and whispered, "Mr. John, like me, also has the ability to have a mind?" ”
"Psychic abilities?"
Raven was stunned for a moment, and then said, "No, Mr. John can shoot something similar to a laser like Alex, his speed and strength are exaggerated, and he can smash an enemy to pieces in one hit. ”
"But he wants us to keep it a secret, he doesn't want the female companion next to him to know that he has such great power."
When it came to 'female companion', Raven was a little sour, and she couldn't help but look at Lin Aida beside Azu.
Lin Aida had already woken up, and because of Azu's 'care', everyone didn't mention to her that Azu killed two enemies in seconds.
By the way, since she had the idea of joining Xiao before, after Xiao left, 'Angel' was not embarrassed to stay, and when Azu went to take a bath, she flew away by herself.
Letting go of his hand, Charles walked up to Alex and the others and said, "We already know what happened. ”
"I'm sorry to have you go through this."
"Next, I'm going to send you home and get you back where you need to be."
"Home."
Charles had planned to rally a group of mutants to fight Shaw, but after last night's experience, he decided that Shaw was too dangerous to involve these immature youths.
Similarly, last night's events have made Charles grow as well.
He began to fade away from his cynical prodigal nature, began to take responsibility and responsibility, and began to change in the direction of Professor X.
"Nope."
Darwin, a black man, shook his head: "I'm not leaving." ”
"That Xiao, I can tell that he is a very crazy person."
"He told us last night that the revolution was coming."
"I think he's going to do something sensational, and while I don't know what it is, I don't think it's a good thing."
"I think I have an obligation to stop him, and if I know and don't do something, I'm going to be unhappy."
Alex also nodded, "They killed a lot of people last night, I've never seen such crazy people." ”
"Darwin was right, if we didn't know, forget it, but now that we know such a dangerous person, we have a duty to stop him."
"I want to do my part, sir."
"And isn't that what you were here to do?"
Charles shook his head and said, "No, it's over. ”
"It's too dangerous."
"I don't want anything to happen to you."
"They're not children anymore."
Eric walked over and said.
"After what happened last night, they're not the same as they used to be."
"I see a metamorphosis in them, and they are able to make the world a better place."
Charles frowned, turned around and whispered, "Can we go over there and talk?" ”
They stepped aside, and Charles spread his hands and said, "Eric, I don't think we should continue to involve them." ”
"They're already involved, Charles."
Eric said indifferently: "Shaw has already seen them, even if you send them home now, will Shaw let them go?" ”
"No, I know him too well."
Eric remembered what happened more than a decade ago.
At that time, he had just awakened to his abilities.
Shaw was intrigued by his abilities and did a lot of research, the most brutal of which was to ask him to show his abilities within the time limit or kill Eric's mother.
Eric failed.
To this day, he will never forget the gunshot that killed his mother.
It appears in every midnight dream, reminding Eric to kill Shaw and avenge his mother.
It is also the hatred of Shaw that has sustained Eric to this point.
It is this hatred that stimulates Eric's potential.
Eric's words made Charles waver.
He knew that Eric was right, and even if he sent these young men back now, Shaw would find them.
Eric saw that Charles was shaken and continued.
"Sending them away is just giving you peace of mind that you've done your duty."
"In fact, Charles, guiding them, guiding them, giving them the ability to protect themselves, is the only way to do his duty."
"We involved them, and now, it's not just a kick out of them that can solve this problem."
"Okay."
With his hands in his pockets, Charles walked back and looked at the young men: "You can stay, but you have to be trained." ”
"No problem." Darwin nodded, then asked hesitantly, "Can we let Mr. John train us?" ”
Alex also said, "Yes, Mr. John is definitely capable of training us. ”
Last night, Azu easily dealt with the red devil and the long-haired man, leaving a deep impression on these young people.
If they need training, then they naturally want to be guided by the strong.
There is no doubt that Azu is the most suitable person.
Raven also said: "Charles, believe me, Mr. John is beyond your imagination, he is the most powerful person I have ever met. ”
"Okay." Charles touched his nose, walked over, came to Azu's side and coughed dryly, "Mr. John, I don't know if you can stay." ”
"They seem to be very dependent on you."
Azu smiled: "No problem. ”
If Azu wanted to leave, he would have left after killing the two Red Devils last night.
Although he had thought about leaving this morning before.
But after careful consideration, he decided to stay.
Because in the near future, there will be a plot of Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix.
And these two are the things in the X-Men universe that attract Azu more.
So Azu thinks that he might as well sell some favors to Charles now.
In the future, it will be more convenient to approach the qin with the power of the phoenix, or to find the apocalypse to break the wrist.
But the most important thing is to follow Charles, and you will meet Shaw later.
For Xiao's ability to absorb energy, Azu is still quite interested.
And so the matter was settled.
Then, because the base was no longer safe, the group began to move to a new location.
