In a space filled with white mist, a very abrupt building rises from the ground. It looks like Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, but it is different. The appearance of Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters is basically made of dark red bricks.
composition, and here it's a dark blue, but other than that, most of the structure is the same.
Looking through the windows of this discolored version of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, the scene inside is astonishing.
It is not surprising that Iceman, Rugrat, Storm and others appear here, because they themselves are members of Xavier's school, but the remaining Northstar, Twinkle, Quicksilver and others should have been closer to the Brotherhood of Mutants.
But at this time, I was sitting in the classroom.
What's even more surprising is that the person standing on the podium is not Jean Gray or Professor X, but Stark.
Stark stood on the podium, with Bruce Banner standing next to him. Starkoff touched the corners of his eyebrows, looked at the students below, and sighed deeply.
At this time, Professor

Polaris rolled his eyes, as if he was about to say something, but before he could say anything, Stark said: "Yes, school, I really hope that we can transform you wastes here to be smarter, even if
From a negative number to zero, I would like to thank God."
His words were very straightforward and his tone was very harsh. Logically speaking, the mutants who followed Magneto had bad tempers. But this time, the people led by Polaris just made a breathy sound from their noses.
He crossed his arms and said nothing.
And what exactly is going on and why they have this attitude, we have to start from three days ago.
After Captain America's speech to the Security Council, Nick gained the greatest power during the special period, and therefore, Project Brilliance was officially launched.
Before the formal launch of this plan, scientists represented by Banner, Connors and Stark, as well as foreign aid Reed, had already made most of the preparations and were just waiting for on-site inspections.
But the problem lies in this field trip.
Going to Mercury is not like going to the moon and just finding something to take people there. Stark has a mecha that can move in the universe, and he also prepared one for Banner who is going with him.
This armor can withstand high and low temperatures and provide life-sustaining materials, which ensures that they can move freely on Mercury.
But these are not enough. The environment of the universe is unpredictable. Entering the universe for the first time is accompanied by great dangers. In order to ensure that these precious scientists can stay safe no matter what situation they encounter, there are several others who will follow them to Mercury.
Mutant.
Polaris, Iceman, Shockwave and Blink, these four mutants can be said to be very powerful, and each of them has their own abilities, including the ability to deal with almost all dangers. Logically speaking, such a pair of brains and strength
Combination, landing on Mercury shouldn’t be a big problem…
Originally, they had expected this. The first half of the plan to log in to Mercury went smoothly. The mage opened a portal and sent them to the surface of Mercury.
But the landing site is still a certain distance from the South Pole of Mercury. They need to walk there. At this time, the ability of Blink can come in handy. Her ability is to transport people. What is better than the portal is that
The landing point is very precise and does not require casting time. It is very suitable for dealing with dangers that need to be avoided quickly.
Stark's original plan was to have the wizard open the portal a certain distance away from the South Pole. They could also inspect the landforms of Mercury along the way. After collecting enough information, Blink would take them to the Pole.
.
But when the information was collected and Stark asked Blink to transport them, Blink asked a very soulful question: "...Where is the South Pole?"
Stark's eyes widened and he asked: "The pole is the South Pole, don't you know?"
"Of course I know the South Pole. I have also been to the South Pole of the Earth. The penguins there are quite cute, but this is not the Earth. How do I know where the South Pole is?"
Stark opened his mouth. In his opinion, this is a very simple problem. All you need to know is Mercury's orbit and rotational inclination.
He wanted to open his mouth to explain to Twinkle, but when he thought about it, in order to explain the orbit and rotation inclination, he had to talk about revolution and rotation. To explain revolution and rotation, he had to start with the gravitational field. If he wanted to explain the gravitational field, he had to
Mentioning the four basic forces...
For a moment, this knowledge went through Stark's mind. He glanced at the sun that was very close at hand, felt the heat coming from the mecha, and looked helplessly at Polaris and said: "Your ability is to control magnetism.
Right? Mercury has a global magnetic field. You can find the North and South Poles by following the magnetic lines. Find the South Pole and let her take us there."
Polaris closed her eyes, and after a few seconds, she said, "I found it."
Then several mutants looked at each other, and Polaris asked: "How should I describe to you the point I found?"
Stark covered his forehead, but Banner was more patient. He said: "Do you know the positioning method? We can use the simpler one..."
"...What positioning method?"
Banner looked at Polaris and said: "It's the point positioning method, don't you know? It's just to find three points..."
Just as Banner was about to explain, he thought that to talk about the three-point positioning method, he must first talk about what a triangle is. To talk about what a triangle is, he had to mention the trigonometric identities and trigonometry, and when it comes to the trigonometric identities,
We have to talk about trigonometric functions again...
Banner also sighed. He looked at Twinkle and said, "Even if we give you a complete map now, you won't be able to locate it, right?"
"Actually, there is another way. You just need to give me a direction, and then I will take you to teleport bit by bit, and you will definitely pass by the South Pole, because the planet is round." Shui Shui shrugged.
Stark was almost suffocated. If he had learned anything from his first landing, it was that he should never place his hopes on others, especially mutants.
But it has to be said that what Twinkle proposed is also a method. The limit of Twinkle's transmission ability is the distance from the earth to the moon, and the diameter of Mercury is only two-fifths of the earth, so even if it is transmitted one at a time, it will not go around in one circle.
It takes too long, and as long as a certain landing point is close to the South Pole, the North Star will sense it, and then they can land at the South Pole...
But Stark never dreamed that when he wanted to determine a position, he would need to use the exhaustive method.
The group of people had been busy for a long time with the flashing belt, and finally landed at the South Pole. At this time, Banner and Stark were a little dizzy. They were still ordinary humans, and they were a little motion sick from the rapid teleportation.
But at least we have arrived at our destination. At this time, it is the shock wave's turn to play. There is a crater at the south pole of Mercury. The shock wave needs to create a downward tunnel here and then conduct downward exploration.
The reason why machines are not used to do this work is because the density of Mercury is very high. If you want to go deep underground, the exploration drill can only use vibranium or Edman alloy, and the loss will be very large. In order to save money for the earth, Star
It's better to choose mutants that don't cost anything.
But it turns out that there is nothing in this world that does not require a price. Shock Wave's ability is indeed very strong. He can move freely in the universe without wearing a mecha, and he can also absorb the energy of the sun and convert it into shock waves.
The only problem was that he couldn't quite understand the survey drawings drawn by Stark. He flew into the air with the survey drawings, looked at the drawings, then at the ground, then at the drawings, and then at the ground.
, after looking there for a long time, he did not take action yet, but flew back and asked Stark: "Why is there no crater on your drawing?"
"There is no crater?...Isn't this here?" Stark came over and pointed at the drawing and said: "Look here, do you see this string of data? You have to follow this..."
"What is this string of data?...What is this?"
"This is a scale. Do you see the point I drew? You need to draw a perfect circle at a ratio of 1:1000, and at the same time, you need to draw a tangent line with only half the depth here, and here..."
Half an hour later, the shock wave flew into the air again, and then shot out a scorching ray shock wave with his arms. Stark stood on the surface of Mercury with his hands on his hips, looking at the patterns on the ground, and yelled: "Stop! You drew it wrong!"
!What’s that in your hand? That’s a drawing, follow the drawing!!!”
"I came here based on the drawings!!" Shockwave shouted.
"But I want a perfect circle. What shape did you cut it into? Slices of bread?!"
"But I control it manually, how can it be so accurate?!"
"I marked the allowable error above! Didn't you see? The allowable error on the west side is larger, why do you want to go north?"
"This is not the earth, how do I know where the west is?!!"
Half an hour later, Stark and Banner sighed again. Banner helped Stark's shoulders and said, "That's it. It's just preliminary exploration anyway. It's enough to get to the bottom of the crater."
Stark said nothing and walked towards the pit created by the shock wave...
The shock wave opened a hole in the middle of the crater. When Flash took several people down, Bruce screamed and sat down on the ground, because there was a bump where he landed, which caused him to trip.
Stark looked back, sighed again, and said to Shockwave: "Don't you know the importance of safe operation?"
Before Shockwave could refute, Stark said: "Come on, make a tunnel for this."
Then he turned around again, pulled the iceman over, and said, "When he creates a bunch of tunnels, you use your ice-making ability to create a support structure to prevent the tunnel from collapsing."
Stark took out the blueprint again. This time, before Iceman could say anything, Stark took a look at the blueprint himself, then threw the blueprint back and said, "Forget it, you can't understand it anyway.
To put it simply, he creates a tunnel, and you get something to prop up the tunnel so that we can go in."
"Okay, no problem." Iceman nodded.
The shock wave created a thinner ray, and the tunnel began to be slowly dug. As a tunnel appeared in front of several people.
The Iceman squatted down and touched the ground with his hands. In an instant, the ice spread along the tunnel. At this time, Banner stopped his next move and said: "Your support structure is not good. If you go forward, it will collapse."
,According to structural mechanics, you have to make a support point here, and here, it needs to be load-bearing..."
Although Iceman didn't understand, he had a better temper than the others. He did whatever Banner told him to do. After several more hours of delay, they finally reached the tunnel.
Then it was time to repeat the work. Stark was searching for possible ice layers under Mercury, and at the same time recording the underground rock structure.
After working together for a long time, several people finally cooperated well, but just when Banner and Bruce were collecting data in an underground cave, a fierce quarrel broke out between Shockwave Polaris and Iceman.
Not long ago, they had a quarrel. If Charles and Magneto hadn't temporarily reached an agreement to let them come together to perform the mission, the three of them would still be in a cold war.
Needless to say, the consequences of forcibly bringing several Cold War people together. Shockwave suspected Iceman of trying to pry him into a corner. Polaris felt that Shockwave was completely unreasonable. Iceman complained on behalf of Polaris. As a result, Shockwave felt that the two had betrayed him.
he……
Stark was collecting rock samples there when he heard a "boom" from behind. Immediately afterwards, the icicles supporting the underground structure began to collapse layer by layer. In an instant, a flicker appeared beside the two people, carrying
They were teleported to the surface with a "whoosh".
The moment they fell to the ground, there was a loud rumble in the center of the crater in front of them. With a "boom", the entire center of the crater collapsed...
Shockwave, Polaris and Iceman crawled out in disgrace, facing Stark's face that was as black as the bottom of a pot.
