Judging from the layer of dust visible to the naked eye on the coffee table, there must have been no visitors here for a long time, and there was not even anyone cleaning it. One can only imagine how long it has been deserted.
Hank looked at Hong Fei with a look of resentment. He actually believed Hong Fei's words just now and told Charles that he had an old friend.
God knows how embarrassed Charles was when he looked at Hong Fei and said they had never met.
Now that Logan has gained some initial trust by revealing things about himself that Charles has never told anyone about himself, they are having more in-depth conversations about Days of Future Past.
Hong Fei listened and felt Charles' body.
What was injured was his spine, which was concentrated and destroyed by bullets. This level of damage cannot be cured by human medical standards. Even if mutants master supernatural abilities and certain black technologies, they will still be helpless.
But now Hong Fei is no longer the person who needed loans and sold arms to carry out kidnappings for funds and abilities.
Pure light energy can be used as an attack to achieve a killing effect, and its characteristics have an excellent effect on most lives. The light energy controlled by Hong Fei can easily regenerate his damaged vertebrae.
He could even use dragon bones directly for Charles. He had plenty of them, and Shou Lao's complete skeleton was still intact in the Dragon Dimension.
Therefore, in many cases, the reason why a problem is a problem is not that it is difficult to solve itself, but because your combined strength of knowledge, resources, etc. is still too weak.
The Professor Charles in front of him and the Charles that Hong Fei had met half an hour ago looked like completely different people.
This is not just due to the difference in appearance or hair, but more obvious is the eyes and temperament.
What does the old bald Professor
, giving people a sense of maturity and stability, as if they can be trusted or expected at any time.
What is the young Professor X like?
He doesn't look much different. He is similar to all the young and middle-aged people Hong Fei knows. Even his decline after suffering a big change at this time is not as bad as that of some stronger people. And his age at this time,
Must be forty-one years old.
Professor in 2006, seventy-four years old.
Thirty-three years is enough time for a generation to grow from infancy to maturity, which is equivalent to nearly one-third of most people's lives. This long period of time has also allowed the mutant leader to mature and transform countless times, and finally...
All the hair has fallen out.
Or in other words, the 41-year-old Charles, because the historical development of mutants has not really entered a period of rapid increase in numbers and rapid intensification of conflicts, so the setbacks he has experienced as a mutant are limited, and the latest time, the government
The act of forcibly recruiting mutants and throwing them into the Vietnam battlefield was the biggest dilemma Charles had ever faced alone.
In the past, he had a good friend named Eric with whom he could share the pressure and responsibilities, but now he was alone, and because it was an act of the government, he couldn't even find a reason to resist, so he could only wait.
Feeling sorry for myself at home.
Look at his current state. He has long hair that has fallen to his shoulders. At a glance, it feels like it can squeeze out oil. He has long and short stubble on his face. There is some blue around his eyes. He is wearing a nightgown. He seems to be ready to go. Just sleep anywhere.
Even though Logan was talking to him about something at this time, he still held a bottle of whiskey in his hand, raising his head to take a sip from time to time. The liquid would always overflow from the corner of his mouth, and finally drip until he could faintly see. It's on a white T-shirt.
With this image, who dares to connect him with the bald man decades later?
"Charles, everything I said is true. I know you are sad right now, but everyone needs you very much."
Logan's words from the heart seemed to suddenly detonate Charles' inner anger.
He slammed the wine bottle on the table, and the sudden loud noise frightened the beast next to him.
Then, Charles stared at Logan with impatient, bored and ferocious eyes, and started spitting with saliva.
"Need me? How come I don't know that I am still so important? I have done so many things, only to be overturned by others in one sentence. Now my result is zero! Zero! Do you know what zero means? It is what None, nothing! Besides, why do you always need me, and where were you when I needed you?!"
Logan wiped his face. He had no idea that Charles would suddenly explode so violently. For a moment, he was stunned and didn't know how to answer.
But Charles's eyes suddenly moved, as if he suddenly remembered something. He suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and smiled sarcastically, grabbed the bottle and stood up, saying: "I remembered, we have really met before. Now, I I'll tell you what you said before."
He leaned down and got close to Logan's ear.
"F**k off!"
Immediately, Charles raised his legs and stepped directly over the coffee table, his nightgown fluttering, and walked away with a meteoric stride.
Hong Fei smiled and turned to look at Logan: "How do you feel?"
Logan sighed deeply: "I didn't expect him to be like this when he was young."
"Everyone has their youth, but he is much older than me. I didn't expect that he is still so immature. It seems that he is the type who matures late."
Hank suddenly intervened: "Don't say that about him. He has indeed become a little decadent now, but don't forget what he just experienced. He lost his legs because of his best friend, and lost his strength to stand up. , and then those military people took away his students arbitrarily. If it were me, maybe I would have burst out."
Logan frowned in disapproval because he had experienced worse reality, but considering Charles' age, he still nodded pretending to be serious.
Hong Fei was noncommittal about Hank's statement, but that was not what he was more interested in.
"Hank, if you were the one going through that, what would you do?"
"Maybe I'm not as good as him, maybe I can't maintain what I am now."
"Then what? I mean, you just mentioned an explosion, so what exactly do you mean by an explosion?"
"of course……"
"Can't you maintain your normal appearance under drug control?"
"Yes."
"Ah!"
Hong Fei chuckled lightly, with a strong sense of ridicule.
The so-called explosion is actually just the appearance of being unable to control yourself?
I thought you would break out and storm into the military camp, break into the White House, and capture the president alive. But in the end, this is it?
Spicy chicken breaks out!
Hank raised his eyes and said slightly dissatisfied: "What about you?"
"Are you sure you want to know?"
"Since I asked, of course it means I want to know."
"Okay, let me tell you, if it were me, I would screw their heads off one by one as soon as possible..."
At this time, Logan suddenly interrupted: "Okay, Hong, let's think about how to convince Charles."
Hong Fei stopped without saying anything, and Hank looked at Hong Fei with horrified eyes. He felt as if he had heard something remarkable.
Looking back, Hong Fei asked: "What should I do to convince Charles?"
"Of course, let him cooperate with us. Riven is the key to our operation, but her ability makes it difficult for us to find her location quickly. The longer it takes, the higher the possibility of our failure. Charles' ability is very powerful.
He can locate anyone in the world and communicate directly with her. With his help, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."
Hong Fei asked again: "What should we do after we find Ruiwen?"
"Of course to stop him! The professor and I talked alone before coming here. The thing that had the deepest impact on mutants this year must be that she assassinated Bolivar Trask and was caught. We can't let her succeed.
We cannot let her fall into human hands."
"Then I don't understand. If that's the case, then why don't we go and wait for Trask? You haven't heard the story of waiting for something to happen. You should understand the truth, right?"
"No, her changes..." Logan stopped mid-sentence. He looked at Hong Fei, with surprise and joy in his eyes: "Can you see through her?"
"One hundred percent. And no one on this planet can kill the person I want to protect."
The urgency in Logan's heart relaxed slightly. He paused for a moment and said, "Then we split up? You go protect Trask and wait for Raven. I will continue to persuade Charles and then take him to meet you."
"no."
Are you kidding me, asking him to protect that guy?
Hong Fei does not discriminate against his height, because it is a natural defect, but his methods such as directly putting many mutants into live experiments and brutal dissections are outrageous.
If he stayed by his side, Hong Fei might not be able to resist killing him in a matter of seconds.
Moreover, he never bothered to travel back in time to save people because the Holy Mother was so heartbroken.
"Don't worry, I'll go have a chat with him. You can go out and warm up the car before setting off. And you..." Hong Fei pointed at Hank: "You can come with us."
Logan frowned: "Are you sure?"
"certainly."
"Then why didn't you say anything just now?"
"I see that you are having a lively chat. Besides, the time didn't come just now, but now the time is ripe."
"You... you have to be patient." Logan was really afraid that Hong Fei would beat Charles up. How could Charles in his current state be Hong Fei's opponent? Not even the old one!
"The most impatient person actually asked me to be more patient?" Hong Fei turned around and laughed, "Okay, although your consciousness has endured the tearing feeling caused by time travel, judging from the two things just now, you obviously
Not a person suitable for this task. In order for our lives not to be consumed in vain, so, next, it is my time."
When Logan heard this, he stood up immediately: "You must not mess around!"
He did not forget what the elderly Professor
Ke worked hard not to convince Rui Wen to give up her assassination plan, but how to ensure that Hong Fei would not destroy the established plan.
But Hong Fei's response was just to wave his hand without looking back, without saying yes or bad.
Logan felt very uneasy and reached out to touch his forehead.
