It's hard to save the world

They failed, and because of the attenuation of their mutant abilities, many people only tried once or twice, and their faces looked as if they were about to faint at any time.

Considering what he had read from the letter, Barry walked over to Charles' wheelchair.

In the eyes of most mutants, the Flash of the Justice League undoubtedly belongs to the friendly camp.

The reason for this is that, in addition to Barry's friendly attitude towards mutants and his own personality charm, it is mainly due to Central City's friendliness towards mutants.

Central City is a city that gave birth to the Flash and is also a city guarded by the Flash.

In Central City, although it cannot be said that everyone is friendly to mutants, most people have no ill feeling or rejection towards mutants. Of course, the premise is that you don't do anything bad.

As non-combatants, Charles and Hank watched as the others fought.

Seeing Barry's arrival, Charles said with a smile, "Do you feel okay? Batman was worried about you just now."

"Uh... I'm fine, thank you." Barry forced a smile. Charles' words reminded him of the letter he had read and his attitude towards Bruce just now. Barry couldn't control it. Feeling a little guilty.

It was just a letter, a letter whose authenticity was unknown.I actually had doubts about Bruce just because of a letter, this is really...

But the letter was so dark, Barry couldn't imagine how many things he had to lose to consider the Speed ​​Force the least of them.

He originally thought that the so-called dark power, like Darkseid, was powerful, but not invincible.But what was revealed in the letter was far beyond Barry's expectations.

He didn't want to believe that the future would be so dark, he didn't want to believe that Bruce's future would become what the letter said, but he couldn't believe it.

What if this is true, what if this is a reminder that everyone in the future world risked their lives in exchange for it, is he going to repeat the process of failure again...

Between belief and disbelief, Barry felt a little broken.

As a psychologist, Charles could see Barry's confusion and struggle even without using his mind-reading ability.Although he didn't know why the other party was like this, it didn't prevent him from giving a young man a little help, "I don't think you need to thank me. In fact, I didn't do anything for you."

He looked at Barry, with eyes that had been left a little trace by the years, with the transparency and peace that only belonged to the elderly, "There are many people in this world who love you, and you deserve it."

"I deserve it?" Barry squatted down and half-kneeled in front of Charles. He lowered his head slightly, not daring to look directly into the other's eyes that seemed to see through everything.

He has never been so timid before. Before Batman found the psychic ability to isolate Ron, every time he saw him, although there was no reaction on the surface, it gave people the feeling of a blown hair. cat.

But Barry is just the opposite. He has no secrets to hide, and he doesn't have any shady thoughts. He is even an overly frank and straightforward person at ordinary times.

So he doesn't have any feeling for psychic abilities, or abilities like mind reading.

He has always been a man with the same appearance and no big secrets.

Of course, he would not tell others easily that he was the Flash.But if someone really found out, it wouldn't be a matter of life and death. After all, the group of gangsters were quite principled.

Charles looked down at Barry. Because of Barry's current posture, Charles could only see the top of his masked head and the two little golden wings beside his ears.

The Flash is not a fledgling little hero like Spiderman. Although he has the aura of "the next generation", he is indeed a person of Batman's generation. He and the rest of the Justice League are the first to appear on the earth. Forces to defend against alien invasion.

When Darkseid came with an army of demons, it was the Justice League who stood up.At that time, Captain America in the Avengers hadn't woken up yet, and Iron Man was still an arms dealer and was in a state of disappearance.

By that time, the power of mutants had already begun to wane.

It is undeniable that the emergence of the Justice League has brought hope to mankind, just like their chairman Superman.

As for The Flash, although he is not as powerful as Superman and not as intelligent as Batman, he is definitely one of the public's favorite superheroes.People criticize Superman, people hunt Batman, Iron Man has been court-martialed several times... But Flash, he is rarely criticized by people.

Charles couldn't imagine why such a superhero who seemed so happy and grew up in endless love would become so confused and sad.

"Flash, are you okay?"

Charles softened his voice, knowing that when he was young, he admitted to his school with his face and good voice (crossed out), oh, and maybe a pair of beautiful cornflower blue eyes.

Barry raised his head slowly, but his eyes were still half-closed, "Charles, can I call you that?"

"of course can."

"You have psychic abilities, right?" Barry asked this question knowingly.According to Barry's character, he should have said something straight.

But after all, he and Charles are not the only two here. Considering the information revealed in the letter, he has to guard against Clark and the others for some things.

"Of course, I think everyone knows that." Charles replied in the affirmative.

Barry pursed his lips tightly, and it was obvious that he was still struggling.

And Charles just looked at him silently, without urging or asking.

After a while, Barry seemed to have finally made up his mind. He looked up into Charles' eyes, "I would like to open my mind to you, come and see, see everything." Come and see, I want to say but say no words that come out.

When Barry came here, he wanted to tell Charles about genetically modified food, but for some reason, it developed to the present state, maybe because the letter was too depressing.

Charles looked back at Barry, in a daze, he seemed to see the Logan who came to him in order to reverse the future.

During the short period of time when Charles was thinking about the past, Barry's eyes gradually changed from a little uncertain to firm.

Anyway, the letter said that Charles was trustworthy, and Barry felt a little bit self-defeating.

It has to be said that Barry's behavior was reckless and impulsive.But you can never expect The Flash to be as cautious and plan as Batman after reading a letter.

Even if he can really grow to that stage, it will definitely not be now, and it will definitely not be because of a letter.

Suffering makes people grow, but a letter...it is just a letter after all.

Bruce, who did not forget to pay attention to Barry while observing the cover, saw doubts in his eyes after seeing the interaction between Barry and Charles.

第 186666

In the end, Charles still didn't "read" Barry's brain, not because he didn't want to fulfill Barry's wish, but because he really couldn't do it.

Just like Martian Manhunter's psychic abilities don't work on Barry, so does Charles' psychic abilities.

He used to be the most powerful psychic on Earth, and even if the Martian Manhunter came later, Charles was no weaker than a human.But now, dementia aside, just the degeneration of mutant abilities is embarrassing enough.

"Sorry, I can't read anything." Although he did nothing wrong, Charles sincerely apologized.Once, he was the omnipotent Professor X in the eyes of the students, but now, he is an old man who needs to be taken care of by others.

Charles noticed that the Flash looked like he was about to cry after he finished speaking.

Seriously, as the headmaster of a school, especially one of mutants, Charles was pretty good at comforting people.Even in the face of puberty and rebellious boys and girls, he can easily deal with it.

But at this moment, looking at Barry, Charles was rarely at a loss.

This feeling of helplessness is somewhat like his sister and he chose the opposite path back then, and it is also like he watched Eric helplessly, leaving himself injured on the beach and leaving.

It was like seeing a sincere soul let down, but before, he was always the one who was let down.

Speaking of Eric, he hasn't seen his old friend for a long time.

Many people said that he was dead, but Charles felt inexplicably that the other party must still be alive, but he didn't want to come out to see him...

Maybe the other party's ability has also degenerated. If Charles had a choice, he didn't want his current appearance to be seen by anyone at all, even him, let alone his old friend who has always been a showman. .

Barry had to admit that he was disappointed after getting a negative answer from Charles.

But facing Charles' apology, he just said: "No, Charles, there is no need to apologize."

Barry turned around and glanced at the unusually conspicuous blood-colored hood, thinking of what was written in the letter, "Charles, do you think he is conscious?"

"Him?" Charles felt as if he couldn't keep up with the thinking of young people. Could it be that he was really old?

"It's that bloody hood."

both charles and hank are a bit surprised
