Heroes of Marvel
Chapter 421: Tired Tony
New York, the top floor of Tony's Stark Industrial Building, just back from S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters in Washington, D.C., Tony is getting ready to take a break. Tony hasn't had a good rest for two days in search of Lin Rui.
Lin Rui's parents also contacted Tony today during the day to ask when Lin Rui will be home. After all, even if Lin Rui came to Tony for an "experiment”, he would have called home, but this time he couldn't reach me. Lin Rui's parents were very worried about the safety of their son when they thought about the attacks they had been subjected to.
In response to Lin Rui's parents' inquiry, Tony can only say that they are now conducting a very confidential experiment, which is completely closed to the outside world. Lin Rui's parents accepted Tony's explanation, after all, as Tony Stark himself said.
However, Tony knew that he was giving the promises he needed, and he was under a lot of pressure. If Lin Rui was not found in the end, or had died with the Red Skull by the time it was found, the blow to Lin Rui's parents would not have been ordinary. But Tony couldn't help it, and he couldn't believe that a smart guy like Lin Rui would end up with the Red Skull.
Moreover, the establishment of the Earth Federation was proposed by Lin Rui, who, although the Alliance of Guardians of Lin Rui appeared to be a modest force, knew the important role Lin Rui played here. Without Lin Rui, Tony and the rest of them would still try to accomplish this goal, but perhaps not so well reconciled with each other.
“Jarvis, if you hear anything about Jackson, just remind me immediately.” Tony deliberately spoke to Jarvis before he took a break.
To find Lin Rui, Tony has activated 100% of the energy of Stark Industries, a huge thing, and the world is looking for phantom knights and red skeletons wherever Tony Stark can influence them. Tony also gave a lot of money to that end. Of course, in order to find Lin Rui, these are all worth it.
“Yes, sir.” Jarvis responded calmly to Tony.
And then Tony fell asleep, and he was so tired. As for Jarvis, he is also constantly searching the entire world network for the latest news from Phantom Knight. Jarvis' abilities seem to have been improved since his self-escalation, and in the oceanic world of the Internet, Jarvis continues to have access to this information like a free whale, before analyzing it and finally summarizing it.
“Jackson, if you're still alive, where the hell are you now?” Online information about Phantom Knights is constantly analysed, and such questions are raised in the heart of Jarvis.
……
While Tony's side was still trying to find the missing Lin Rui and Red Skulls, away from Xavier Youth College in downtown New York, Professor Charles was discussing something in an office with a group of X-Men. Iceman, who had not been completely well injured last time, also sat on the chair with a serious expression on his face.
“The mutants captured from the Hydra base are undergoing treatment this time, but it will take a lot of time to get them back to normal.” As the leader of this operation, Stormwoman is reporting on those mutants whose consciousness is controlled by their capture.
“Well, I've also looked at their situation, which was influenced by hallucinations created by psychotic mutants, and continued to be controlled by hypnosis at a later stage. So, in order not to cause secondary harm to their consciousness, slowly it's right.” Professor Charles, sitting in a wheelchair behind his desk, answered calmly when he heard the storm woman.
Having personally looked at the situation of those mutants, Professor Charles perceived the ability of a very capable psychotic mutant, who should have a very high mutation level. What makes Professor Charles powerful is the direct control of psychosensitivity and thought, and that person's ability should be to use illusions to achieve immediate ends, and the mutant power is very powerful, at least not weaker than Charles.
Professor Charles seemed familiar to such a powerful psychotic mutant and good at creating phantom controllers, but he couldn't remember it for a moment. But that powerful mutant shouldn't belong to Hydra, most likely to be some mutant organization associated with Hydra.
Nor has Professor Charles ever questioned the Variant Brotherhood led by Magneto, but with what Charles knows about the Variant Brotherhood, they don't have such a powerful mutant who can control people. In case of Charles' telepathy, Magneto's special helmet was worn all the time, and he was surrounded by a mutant who was totally loyal to his spiritual class to help him shield Charles from detection.
So Professor Charles knows exactly who's next to Magneto. Charles can be sure that Magneto Eric is not surrounded by such a powerful psychotic mutant.
“They didn't find the brothers and sisters, either. Looks like they're really hiding.” After Professor Charles answered, the storm woman reported another situation.
In the previous strike against Hydra, the Fast Silver brothers and sisters directly confronted the intercepted X-Men in the course of the battle. After a battle, the Red Witch suffered a lot of injuries. Had it not been for her mindfulness to repel all X-Men at the time, Fast Silver would not have had much chance to take her away.
Although the eruption of the Red Witch temporarily caused them to flee, Professor Charles' spiritual strength had locked them in, when he dispatched a flashing team of Iron Man and Triad to chase them. This chase was all day long, and just as Fast Silver was about to fail, the Red Witch, who had regained some of her abilities, erupted again, shaking Professor Charles' mental lockout, and then Fast Silver took them away with her final strength.
As a result, the three scintillating men who chased the whole day eventually lost track of the two fast-silver brothers and sisters. Although the three of them continued their search for some time later, nothing was found, and the fast silver brothers and sisters did escape.
“I knew they'd run away when my mental powers were shaken, and we'd be watching these brothers and sisters all the time.” Charles still cares about fast silver brothers and sisters. After all, they were very capable, almost using the power of two men against a six-man X-Men police force.
“What about the Phantom Knight? Can't we do something?” Listen, Professor Charles has been talking about this operation, and the Iceman sitting in the corner can't help but talk.
The X-Men in the office were blinking when they heard the Iceman. The X-Men love this street hero who has a good relationship with mutants. But in that case, it's probably only Iron Man and Spider-Man they'll blindly think the Phantom Knight is still alive.
“Bob, we can do very little about this. I've also searched the Phantom Knight with my head, but I haven't found it.” Knowing that the relationship between the Iceman and the Phantom Knight was very good, Professor Charles answered after a few seconds of silence.
Professor Charles also regrets what happened to the Phantom Knight. After all, the Phantom Knight pulled Professor Charles into the group that formed the Earth Federation. If the Phantom Knight is indeed sacrificed, Professor Charles thinks this great goal may have gone wrong in the early stages.
“I won't believe he just died!” The dissatisfaction drinks low and the Iceman has pushed himself out of the office in a wheelchair. Katie the Phantom Cat saw her boyfriend like this and had to go out with her.
Watching the Iceman leave, Professor Charles had no expression. Now that the X-Men and the entire mutant community need a change, Professor Charles needs to be ready to lead the change. Whether the Phantom Knight dies or not, Professor Charles has decided not to remain silent.
