On the third day after the Mad Attack event, the Mutant Kingdom Utopia.
In the past five years, the guy has given many mutants a mental hint.
While Merlin was fighting him, he released the X-Men's mental hints, causing some trouble for the Avengers.
And after the X-Men recovered from that state of mind suggestion, they immediately conducted a check on the entire utopia.
The results are shocking.
"About 40% of people on this island have signs of being hypnotized."
On the third floor of the Utopian Town Hall, Merlin stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the free and mutant people in the square in front of him. Children with mutant characteristics will definitely be discriminated against in the outside world.
But here, these children can have a good growth environment.
Behind Merlin, wearing a white long dress, a big Emma with a hot and perfect figure, a beautiful face and a cold look.
That is, "White Queen" Emma Frost, was talking to Merlin about the current situation of Utopia.
White Queen Emma is not a utopian.
She belongs to another mutant power, Hellfire Club, but this powerful mutant has a teacher-student relationship with Professor Charles, and she is one of the best graduates of Xavier Talented Youth Academy.
So after getting the sober professor's request, Emma comes to the utopia to help the X-Men handle subsequent affairs.
"It will take a long time to help those people eliminate their spiritual hints without causing confusion."
Emma leaned against the table, hugged her arms and said to Merlin by the window:
"And what's bad is that we have lost the old man who is best at doing this kind of thing, and the other Qin who is good at dealing with this kind of thing is the old man's most proud disciple. Grey's condition is also quite bad now..."
"Aren't you good at spiritual power, too? Ms. Emma."
Merlin looked out the window with his hands behind his back, and said:
"I believe you can handle this... This is also Charles' request. He believes in you, so I am willing to believe in you."
"When did your relationship get so good?"
Queen White looked at Meilin's back expressionlessly, and she said:
"Also, I just happened to have a chance. I want to ask, what is the relationship between the Red Devil Asazo and you? Why did you send him to lurk in my Hellfire Club?"
Merlin did not answer the question directly. He turned around and let the sun shine on himself. He said to Emma:
"Charles is undergoing treatment and he may not be in utopia for a long time. But he is still the representative of moderate mutants, and he will still make his own efforts to integrate mutants into human society."
"I'm here today, besides seeing the situation of utopia, there's another thing I want to tell you, Emma."
Merlin took out a letter from her pocket, flicked her finger, and let the letter float to Emma's hand, he said to the Queen:
"Utopia needs a new leader, Charles recommends you to me."
"I?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Emma's cold and charming face. She opened the envelope and said while looking at the letter:
"I thought the old man would trust Summers more, after all, that young man has been with him."
"Cyclops will be in charge of the X-Men, and you will take over as the principal of Xavier Talented Youth Academy and the Chief Executive of Utopia."
Merlin said:
“Tennis and Ororo will assist you…”
"You all lack the lofty reputation and status of Charles in a mutant society, and none of you can replace him alone."
"So you have to cooperate to manage the utopia that Charles and his friends have spent their entire lives building, which is the result that the official hopes to see."
"I still have my things to do!"
The White Queen seemed not interested in this appointment. She curled her lips and put the letter in her hand aside. She refused:
"Since it's the old man's request, I can take it for a while, but I'm not interested in managing this mess for a long time."
"Your business?"
Merlin pursed her lips and said:
"What can I do with Hellfire Club? It's just that I'm constantly recruiting members in the upper class. I heard that you pulled Tony Stark into your small circle not long ago?"
Merlin shook his head, he looked at Emma, ​​and he said:
"Then you have to be careful. Tony is probably going to you. An iceberg beauty like you is very suitable for the playboy's desire to hunt for beauty."
"Thank you for your reminder."
Queen White said indifferently, and after a moment, she said again:
"That old man Charles is with you now? Is he okay?"
“It depends on how you define ‘good’.”
Meilin took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and he said:
"He lived a very painful life, but every day is far from hope. If it goes well, you will see him again in a while."
He raised his head and looked at the children outside the window who were playing games in the sun. A smile pursed at the corner of his mouth, and he said:
"It's time for me to leave. I hope I can still see this peaceful scenery when I come here next time."
"Oh, by the way, you should have received the notice."
Merlin said to the Queen:
"I'm going to take the vine. Grey."
———————————
On the other side, in the mysterious house, Professor Charles was lying on the experimental bench full of medieval style.
His hands and feet were tied up to prevent his behavior in extreme pain.
"I'm going to start, professor."
The Queen of Border Riana looked into Professor Charles' eyes and said:
"Just like before, be sure to tell me when you can't bear it."
"Well, come on, Riana."
The professor took a deep breath, with that signature gentle smile on his face, and he said to Riana:
"Please trouble you."
“No trouble.”
Riana stretched out her hand and the Great Sword of the Soul-Slaying Sword that could cut the soul appeared in her hands.
In the light intertwined by dark blue and dark red, the giant sword on the door panel shrank rapidly and soon turned into a scalpel.
The Queen of Border reached out and held the professor's chest, and she said:
"Everyone knows that you are a kind person, and even Merlin tries his best to save your life. Don't have too much mental burden."
While chatting with the professor, Riana held the scalpel and stabbed the professor in the heart with a knife.
This scene is like a murder.
But no blood was flowing out of the wound.
Riana's sword is very strange. It will not hurt ordinary people, but it can cause terrible damage to magical creatures, especially to cut off the soul.
The moment the scalpel was inserted into the professor's heart, a low howling sound came from the professor's mouth.
The gentle old man just now seemed to have become a different person. His big bald head without eyebrows was covered in ferociousness. He struggled wildly, and his face twisted, roared at Riana:
"I'm going to kill you! Kill all of you!"
"Come on!"
Riana curled her lips disdainfully, and as she waved her wrist, a dark soul was cut off.
The fragments of the soul were invisible and intangible, like a shining dark halo, held in Riana's hand and threw them into the crystal bottle next to the test bench.
In that crystal bottle, there was already a layer of dark, liquid-like energy.
That was the fragment of mad attack that was cut from the professor's mind a few days ago.
"No one can hurt you. You are the mess that can only use other people's power to show off your power!"
The Queen of the Border stabbed again, causing Kuangying to let out a painful wail. She stared at the conscious body emitting a dark aura under the professor's body, and she said:
"If it weren't for the professor, you would have died long ago."
"I'm a powerful! Idiot! The mad attack will kill all of you!"
Crazy Attack might have gone crazy in the pain of soul cutting. He controlled the professor's body and let out a hoarse roar:
"Merlin! You! You are all going to die!"
"Howl, howl."
Riana didn't care about the roar of the mad attack.
She is the Queen of the Border, she commands the demons of a world. She has long been accustomed to this noisy sound. Compared to the rude demons in hell, the threat of mad attack seems so pale and powerless.
It has no deterrence, and even makes Riana want to laugh.
"It's so sad!"
The Queen of the Border mocked the dark will, and she quickly cut the consciousness attached to the professor's mind with her hands and feet, as if she was completing a precise surgical operation.
After the professor was infected by the leech virus and lost his spiritual power, his consciousness of attack became weaker.
It loses its source of power and cannot be parasitized in the professor's consciousness in a willful way, which makes it possible to be stripped away.
As long as the mad attacking thinking is completely cleared from the professor's mind, the professor will return to his previous state of good-looking people. Of course, few people can do this, and Riana is one of them.
"Snatch the time to howl. In a few more days, you can't even howl."
While talking, Riana carefully cut off the dark power along the outline of the professor's soul.
This work takes a long time, mainly because the professor in an ordinary person has limited ability to withstand, and being cut into his soul multiple times in a short period of time will also affect his own soul stability.
So you have to take it slowly.
More than ten minutes later, Riana completed today's "surgery".
She straightened her body, dissipated the scalpel in her hand, and then looked at the crystal bottle at hand, and the layer of soul medium inside increased a little.
"Well, this would be a great collection."
Riana capped the crystal bottle, then put it in her ear, shook it for a while, and she could still hear the wailing sound of the mad attack in the crystal bottle.
This made Her Majesty the Queen feel like she had heard the best music in the world.
"Let you control my brother!"
Riana reached out to bounce the crystal bottle, and she said with a pout:
"He was beaten up by Clark. He is still lying on the bed and can't walk... Tsk tsk, that guy Clark is really ruthless, almost breaking my brother's leg."
"Hmm...is it over?"
The professor also woke up a few minutes later. His face was pale and his forehead was covered with sweat. He looked at Riana, who smiled sweetly at the professor. She reached out and helped the professor up from the laboratory bench.
Well, Professor Charles' situation is actually quite strange.
He suffered a spinal injury when he was young and was later cured by the beast Hank.
But the problem is that his powerful mental power presses upon the injured body.
If he wants to walk on his legs, he must take a drug that suppresses his mental power, which will turn him into an ordinary person.
But if the professor wants to retain his spiritual power, his legs will become disabled, which is very similar to another friend of Merlin, the superbrained man George who works at the Ghost Base.
George, whose brain area has been developed by 70%, has too much mental power, which has led to him having to take the same medicine as the professor to ensure that his body does not mutate and that he will not become a terrifying big-headed doll.
Over the years, in order to better protect his tribe, the professor has been sitting in a wheelchair.
But now, the Leech virus eliminated his abilities and allowed him to act freely.
Of course, he is old and needs to walk with a cane.
"According to the current progress, the separation of the soul can be completed in a few more days."
Riana and the professor have a good relationship.
When she first found Steels, she had a bad relationship with other X-Men because she had been living in hell and was too lazy to make friends with those guys.
It was the professor who accepted her first and helped her find her position in the X-Men.
To be honest, few people hate people with a gentle personality like Professor Charles, and it is a very good experience to be friends with such a good person.
"I see you collect his fragments, do you want to keep him?"
The professor asked worriedly while walking out of the laboratory:
"This is a very dangerous thing, he will drive you to do a lot of evil things."
"The destructive power of Mad Attack is so strong because he chose a nearly perfect host, professor."
Merlin's voice rang in the hall.
The professor looked up and saw Merlin sitting on the sofa, and Qin Grey, who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, who seemed a little confused.
"If the mad attack was born in another person's mind, then he would be easily annihilated with just one stroke of death and one finger."
Merlin stood up and said to the professor who was walking towards him:
"After all, he's just an incomplete ghost, and he's easily killed as long as the right way is found."
"But then again, the mind of ordinary people is too weak to be able to give birth to such a huge consciousness as Mad Attack."
"Merlin!"
The moment the professor approached Merlin, his crazy thinking surged again. He drove the professor to pounce towards Merlin and strangled Merlin's neck with both hands.
But the professor was too weak and his hands seemed weak.
Merlin didn't care. He looked at the professor's chaotic and vicious eyes and said:
"Cherish your last time, Onslater, on the day you are completely stripped away... your death is coming."
"Don't be proud! You will be like me!"
Kuangying said viciously, like a dark curse.
The next moment, the professor's consciousness pressed the weak and violent attack back to the depths of his heart. He took a step back and said to Merlin with apologies:
"Because of my weakness, I'm really sorry for you, Merlin."
"You have to apologize every time we meet these days, Professor."
Merlin waved his hand and said:
"It's okay, this is what I should do, this is my duty..."
He glanced at the silent Qin Grey sitting on the sofa, and he said to the professor:
"And we have more important things to do now than apologize. About Qin, about the power in her body..."
Chapter completed!
