031: The Professor's opinion of mutants

After Rojo hid the runes, he fell into deep thought, because there was another problem that bothered him.

Symbol Charles. Xavier's ability rune had appeared a few seconds earlier, and Rojo had not yet had telepathy when he was taught mind reading.

The problem is that he doesn't think his mind is strong enough to resist telepathy, on the contrary, his psychic attribute has always been weak, otherwise he wouldn't have suffered a temporary weakness after using the damage transfer and lightning abilities.

Could it be that he has some kind of psychic barrier, like the helmet worn by the Black Emperor Magneto, which plays a protective role, to be more precise, it is more like a protection mechanism, actively shielding damage when encountering threats.

Rojo always felt that it was more than just a protective mechanism, the professor looked at him a little unnaturally, even if the old man tried to hide it, but he couldn't figure out the problem, he was not a creator, and like most other mutants, he didn't think he knew enough about his body.

This situation is very common in the mutant community, mutants are more complex and changeable than humans, different abilities create different body structures, and in the process of growing up, mutants' bodies will also undergo mutations, deriving new mutant abilities.

Rojo is a little uncertain now, his current mutant ability, ignoring Professor X's telepathy, may be another new ability, or it may be brought about by his own strengthening.

He prefers the second type, in addition to the second mutant ability derived from the acquired growth, when the mutant grows stronger, the body will also get some kind of new strengthening, just like Lorna can only manipulate the metal magnetism at the beginning, but after growing up, she can control the earth's magnetic field, which is not a new ability derived, but strengthened.

However, he thought he would know the answer later.

"Caliban, calm down."

As soon as Professor Charles entered the room, Caliban continued to spit out bitterness and pointed to the broken mug in the trash, a little emotional.

The professor had to keep comforting him to calm down, and asked Logan next to him to remember to find a new mug to come back.

"I thought the professor would use telepathy directly to calm him down."

Lorna was a little afraid of Caliban, thinking he looked a little strange, like the white devil in a ghost story.

"The professor's abilities can't be used too often, otherwise he can easily get out of control......"

Logan. Howlett explained.

"You're afraid of Caliban?"

Rojo, who had followed, noticed Lona's tiny eyes.

"Uh-huh."

Lorna whispered.

"He's a poor man, he's albinic, and he's so bad that he can't see the light so much that he would burn his skin."

Logan. When Howlett heard this, he said with pity, "His life is really not seeing the light of day." ”

"Poor man."

Rojo sympathizes with Caliban, and also understands the miserable life of this guy, just imagine, can't see the sun, or mutants, what is the difference between such a life and a rat in the sewer?

This is also the reason why Caliban's mug was broken and he looked so sad that he couldn't even go out and buy things on his own.

"I'm sorry, but I retract what I just said rudely."

Lorna covered her mouth and said in shame.

"Caliban won't care, you go and rest on the couch for a while."

Logan. Howlett plugged a disc into the television and played an old-fashioned western film, "Wild Warriors," and pushed the professor to the couch.

The film is from the fifties and sixties of the last century, the style of painting is old-fashioned and slightly blurry, the frame rate is very low, and it flickers from time to time, but it makes Professor Charles watch it with relish.

Rojo and Lorna were not bothered, so they sat down and enjoyed the heroism of the protagonist in the film.

Rojo was also a little fascinated, he kind of understood why the professor liked to watch this film, and in his memory, the professor was also fascinated by the original book at that time, and he also memorized many lines in the film........ In the film, a stranger saves a family, just like the life of a professor, he once tried to save a large family, the difference is that he did not succeed.

"Rojo, don't forget that..."

Lorna secretly reached out and poked Rojo's back to remind him.

"Let's wait for the professor to finish reading it."

Rojo didn't want to disturb the professor's few hours of entertainment because of his own business.

"I'm sorry, the movie was so exciting, I almost forgot about you."

Professor Charles heard the conversation and remembered the two children beside him, he rubbed his temples, his memory was getting worse and worse, and he was a little worried that one day he would forget about Logan and Caliban.

"We don't mind watching this movie together, it's pretty good."

Rojo felt the professor's emotions and realized that he was not fascinated by it, it seemed that he had really forgotten it, and this would become the norm in the future, and when the professor's illness worsened, he couldn't even recognize Uncle Wolf.

The old body can no longer support this strongest brain, and as he gets older, the worse the condition becomes, and one day the potion will no longer be able to restrain the professor's loss of control, and the professor's brain waves will cause extremely horrific casualties.

Wait...... A thought came to Rojo's mind about whether the situation would get better if he let the professor regain his youthfulness, and he suddenly thought of the potion he had found earlier at the Sherman Pharmaceutical Factory, and the ingredients of the potion seemed to contain anti-aging effects.

"You want to get a better grasp of the mutant ability?"

Professor Charles swept over the two and asked, "Until then, I'd like to ask you what you think of mutants, do you hate yourself?" ”

"I sometimes feel like a freak, but I never feel disgusted, on the contrary, I hate those who hurt me."

Lorna said in a cold tone.

Caliban suddenly appeared behind the couch on the right and said, "You are indeed Eric's daughter, you are so similar that you even smell of hatred." ”

"Caliban, don't make trouble."

Logan pulled Caliban away, he didn't want another Magneto.

Professor Charles nodded, his gaze falling on Rojo, who seemed to care about the boy's opinion, "What about you, Rojo?" ”

"I don't think it's possible for mutants to perish."

Rojo thought for a moment and said, "Mutants are inevitable, because this is the evolution of nature. ”

"Look at what he said, Charles, it sounds a bit like you when you were younger, mutation, i.e. pride."

Logan. Howlett smiled, took a bottle of beer from the fridge, took a big sip, and said, "Rojo, you and the professor will have a good conversation." ”

Charles was also stunned, he had been in the water tower for so many years, how long had he not heard words like this, the words of the young man in front of him made him go back to the time when he was still in high spirits, when his legs were still there, and he still believed that mutants were new humans, and all the papers were about mutation and evolution.

Charles took a deep breath and said, "Kid, you're right, on this planet, the main way of evolution of all living things is mutation, mutation has evolved a single cell, into a human being who dominates the world today, and mutants are a new round of mutation, I have always thought that there is no difference between the two races, we are just evolutions." ”

"But, I seem to be too hypocritical."
