Chapter 3141 "Romantic" Wedding Season (Sixty-one)
Professor X is calling all the mutants who want to participate in this operation to his office.
Logan was the first one. He had just returned. As soon as he walked into the door, he was stunned when he saw those blue eyes.
Professor X was about to explain when Logan turned his head away and began to study the flower pots on the wall.
The second one was the impetuous Polaris. She had just caused a big mess with Magneto and was feeling very proud. She walked in and yelled, "Professor, I'm telling you, when that planet exploded... Ugh!"
Looking at Polaris's shocked expression, Professor X smiled in his heart and opened his mouth to explain, but Polaris suddenly slowed down, folded his arms and began to count the gaps on the floor.
Quicksilver rushed in as a beam of silver light, stopped at the door, and said, "Professor, don't listen to Luna. She deliberately blew up the star to burn my... God!"
Quicksilver was about to speak when Northstar slapped him on the back and covered his mouth.
Phoenix Jean Grey also walked in soon. When she saw Professor X's image, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She took a step to the left and stood next to Logan. The two began to exchange glances.
Then it was Cyclops. He was obviously surprised when he saw Professor X, but soon saw Phoenix and Wolverine together, so he walked over calmly.
Rakshasa and Twinkle were the last to arrive. When they pushed the door open, they found the atmosphere in the office unusually calm. They didn't dare to say much. After seeing Professor X, they both widened their eyes, but they looked at each other and ran to stand against the wall.
Professor X looked around and found that no one wanted to ask him what was wrong. Were all the excuses he had made up useless?
It doesn't matter. If they don't ask, can't I just open my mouth and explain? Professor X was about to open his mouth to speak, but Wolverine Logan stretched out a hand and said, "No, professor, no need to explain. We are all very happy."
What is there to be happy about? Professor X wondered in his heart.
"Professor, although we often say that some things have passed, but if it is possible to make up for the regrets, I believe everyone will choose to do so. You don't have to explain, we all understand." Qin said very sincerely.
What do you know? Professor X was even more confused.
At this time, Magneto walked in quickly, carrying the tied-up Nathaniel, threw him to the ground, and looked around. Everyone lowered their heads silently. No one dared to meet his eyes, not even the members of the X-Men who had always been at odds with Magneto.
Logan had a bad temper. When he wanted to say something, Jean quickly pulled him. Even Cyclops, who usually didn't get along with Logan, quickly gave him a look.
Everyone just remained silent.
After a while, Dr. Beast came back. He looked at the stagnant atmosphere in the room, scratched his head in confusion, and said, "What are you doing here? Wait, who is this guy? Sinister?!"
"Hank, we meet again." Mr. Sinister Nathaniel said with a gloomy face, "And you, Professor X, you... uh... you... how... "
Magneto sneered, crossed his arms and walked to the side, looked at Nathaniel and said, "Why don't you curse? Is it because he has more hair than you now?"
Nathaniel was completely stunned. Although his arms were tied, he was still able to jump up. He jumped three feet high from the ground and screamed, "How is this possible! How could you, a despicable old bald man, ..."
Hearing Nathaniel's words, Polaris instantly gasped. He quickly pulled Pietro back and hid. Cursing Professor X in front of Magneto?! If you want to get killed, don't splatter our blood!
Professor X smiled and said, "Aren't you also British? Aren't you afraid that one day you will become bald?"
"I! I... I can develop a hair growth potion! I won't be bald!! Don't think that just because you use illusion to become like this, you can change your despicable nature!"
Professor X gave Magneto a look.
In an instant, the electric current rose, and with a crackling sound, a flash of lightning flashed before everyone's eyes. After the light faded, black smoke came out from Nathaniel's head, and his originally thin hair completely disappeared.
It took Nathaniel three seconds to realize what was happening, and he let out an unmatched scream. Professor X looked at him with a smile and said, "Now, who is the despicable bald guy?"
"It's bad." Logan lowered his voice and said to the person next to him: "Why do I feel that the professor's personality has returned to his youth?"
"How was he then?"
"It's hard to say." Logan looked up at Professor X, lowered his voice, and said, "Their personalities were completely opposite when they were young."
"hiss……"
Fortunately, after a few words, they still have to get down to business. No matter whether Magneto is young or old, he is not a talkative person, so Professor X naturally has to be the one to interrogate this matter.
Actually, Professor X didn't need to be interrogated. After all, his mutant ability allowed him to see any secrets at any time. However, Nathaniel used some unknown method to block his detection, so he could only ask him.
"Did Apocalypse send you here?"
"Don't waste your energy. I won't tell you. Are you surprised to find that the ability you are so proud of is no longer useful?" Nathaniel said sarcastically.
Professor X sighed softly. Just because he was good at strategy didn't mean he was willing to do such a thing. Schiller wouldn't give him too much time. There was no need to waste time on such a person.
Professor X took a deep breath.
Everyone except Magneto thought he was about to say something, but the next second, a storm of thoughts spread out like a substance, and Nathaniel in the center of the storm let out a horrible scream.
Everyone was sweating coldly when they came to their senses. Logan subconsciously looked at the clock on the wall of the office. What they thought was a short moment of distraction had actually lasted a full ten minutes.
Their consciousness went blank for ten minutes.
"What's going on?" Jean held her temple and shook her head. Logan lowered his eyes and said, "Some people say that Professor X's thinking ability is not omnipotent, but there is a premise, that is, it does not cause damage."
Everyone else heard this, so they looked up at Nathaniel, who was now lying on the ground. His body was still alive, but apart from breathing, he had no other response.
Polaris bravely turned him over and found that his eyes were completely unfocused. Simply put, his brain was burned out and he had become a complete idiot.
Professor X stood there in thought, and after a while he said, "So that's it, Nathaniel is not a mutant."
"How is that possible?!" Cyclops said in disbelief, "He has dealt with this guy many times before. They always thought that Nathaniel was against them because he hated his mutant identity."
Professor X shook his head and said, "He has the X gene, but it was added later. Apocalypse transformed him."
"Is Tianqi capable of doing this?!"
"As one of the oldest mutants, it's not surprising that he has such abilities. I saw from Nathaniel's memories that Apocalypse was very interested in Nathaniel's plan to fuse mutants, so he transformed him."
"He is a cruel executioner!" Cyclops raised his voice and said, "Last time we found several modified mutants in his laboratory, and they were all in pain!"
"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this." Professor X sighed again and said, "He helped Apocalypse create a poison that targets the X gene, and in order to show his sincerity, he personally came to the Andromeda Galaxy and placed the poison here."
"But fortunately, the previous biological riot incident..."
Professor X briefly explained the current situation, and then said, "Apocalypse thinks he has a fatal handle on us and wants us to help him. By tomorrow morning at the latest, the news that Magneto and Polaris raided the Shi'ar Empire laboratory will spread throughout the universe. By then, he will definitely think that we did it."
"Professor, you want to lure the snake out of its hole?"
"That's right. We lied and said we got the thing and wanted to exchange it with him for the antidote. He would definitely come to get it. The key is that the people behind him would definitely come."
"Why are you so sure?"
"If it were you, would you trust someone like Apocalypse to get such a dangerous thing?" Professor X asked. He said very confidently, "Thousands of years have not improved Apocalypse's abilities much, let alone his wisdom. He is a man with ambition written on his face. The New Skrull Empire will use him, but will never let him touch any core things."
Doctor Beast nodded and said, "That makes sense. If there really is a weapon that can destroy a galaxy in an instant, the New Skrull Empire will never allow such a thing to fall into the hands of others."
"Let's start now." Professor X's eyes flashed with a cold light. He looked at Rakshasa and said, "How is Mystique's preparation going?"
"She can only mobilize a few starships, about five. The Senate has three more. But if she mobilizes them now, it might alert the enemy."
"Five ships are enough. Have you finished the noble paint job?"
"It's originally aristocratic paint job, and they are the most powerful nobles on Mengyu Star, and the flags are all complete."
"Okay, notify them to prepare for action."
Professor X looked at Magneto and said, "We have to deal with mutants and guard against the apocalypse. The Skrulls can't just come with a few people. At least a fleet is needed."
"You want them to collide directly?"
"No, I'm going to wipe out one side directly." Professor X said, "Destroying a fleet of the New Skrulls is nothing, because they are a purely mechanical civilization. Once the assembly line is running, they can quickly make up for the losses. The value of the starship is not that high."
"But if it's the fleet of the Shi'ar Empire nobles, it's different. The Shi'ar Empire's warships need to undergo many enchantments before they can exert their strongest power. The nobles only have a portion of the military power, and five warships are already an unacceptable loss for them."
"But will they really declare war on the New Skrull Empire for this?" Polaris asked doubtfully.
"The fact that they lost five warships is not the key point. The key point is that the Queen's warships are all there. If they don't consume all the warships in the Queen's hands, then the few warships they have left will soon be taken away. They will not allow this to happen."
