It was extremely quiet in the college, with both students and teachers in class.Karl walked through the empty hallway and walked slowly up the stairs to the top floor.

The principal's office is on the top floor.

Professor X has not taught in person for some years. Before Carl continued to send mutants over, the number of students in the college rarely increased in a large arc, and the number of teachers was a bit too much. Professors focused more on searching Emerging mutants and X-Men in training.

But with Carl, the number of people at Xavier Academy has more than doubled in just a few years.

Although many of the mutants sent here are adults and have received higher education, they can serve as teachers in schools, but the professor does not agree that these mutants should continue to stay in the school. After manipulating his power, he can freely walk among ordinary people.

Most of the adult mutants left after graduation, and only kept in touch with their alma mater so that they could have a place to call for help when special circumstances arise. A very small number of mutants joined the X-Men and also served as teachers of the academy .

As time passed, the number of teachers at Xavier College became insufficient, and Professor X became a teacher in the college again, not just a spiritual leader or a principal.

In recent years, more and more mutants have switched from Brotherhood to Xavier College, all because of the current improvement in the general environment.

These mutants who were not very hostile to humans, but longed for an equal environment, gradually began to believe that their goals could be achieved without using force.

Who has contributed the most in this regard, everyone knows it well.

Karl often suspects that Magneto has drawn up a plan to kill him quietly at the right time, after all, he is the one who has greatly reduced Magneto's power; It is also quite gratifying that the living environment of mutants has improved significantly.

The evidence is that he came to see Professor X more and more frequently. The two old friends would sit together, drink afternoon tea, and play chess. Sometimes Magneto came over and did nothing but sit with the professor. , shoulders leaning on shoulders, the two just flipped through the books on the bookshelf, the smell of old couples falling in love again in the principal's office...

Karl sometimes wonders, are everyone blind?

It's all here and no one sees it?Even if it's not a relationship, it's a romantic relationship.

Carl knew that there must be some kind of independent forum in this world, just like what he saw in some parallel worlds, people quietly exchanged information that only they understood in forums, blogs, and web pages. There are stories about Magneto and Professor X on the forum.

The entanglement between the two mutant leaders, their friendship, confrontation and hostility, is a well-known legend in this world.

However, Karl has never tried to find those websites that are developing secretly, and there is no specific reason. It’s not that he can’t bear it. God knows how many incredible things he has seen in the parallel world. He has never thought about how many things he has seen. He didn't look for the pairing, purely because of some bad taste.

Didn't he start a movie company?The purpose of the TV series and movies to be filmed now is to cultivate the newcomers, give them some experience, and prepare them for what will happen in the future and what may happen in the future.

For example, filming a Super British movie in the Super British world.

Carl is even very confident that he can get the authorization of the characters themselves. This is not difficult to do. Superheroes will be feared by ordinary humans and they will be suspected. This is a matter of time. To establish a good image for Chaoying", plus a little help from his other identity - something that can be easily grasped.

In the "real world" at the highest level, super-English movies are fighting over copyright matters, and this world doesn't have to worry about this at all.

With any luck, they might even invite real superheroes to star in superhero movies, or insert some footage and videos of real superheroes into the plot of the movie.

Carl walked around a corner, and the principal's office was right in front of him.

The style of this luxurious villa inherited by the professor from his parents and elders is rich and ancient. The copper-red wood decorates every inch of the door and wall as far as Karl can see. Painted with mythical patterns, Karl has been here many times and knows that the painted paintings in front of the principal's door are the pictures and texts of Prometheus' stolen fire.

Further afield is the story of the golden apple tree.In the distance, Zeus was holding a thunderbolt, and Hera was standing beside him with a cold expression, but his arms were on Zeus' shoulders, and his fingers were locked tightly.

The beautiful Athena was placed downstairs, with a smile on her face, an olive branch wrapped around her head, an elegant and fit body, and piercing eyes.

Carl has been to Xavier College many times, he is familiar with every building and every doorpost here, he often stays with Professor X, sometimes reads Professor X's collection, and reads slowly speed--

If he can run faster than light, at the same time, he can still process the surrounding information well, and can see all the trajectories of progress, it can only be said that his brain is born with a processing speed far exceeding the speed of light.

He can scan the bookshelf with his clairvoyant eyes, read every book on the entire bookshelf in seconds, and absorb and store the knowledge contained in it; In a library as big as the earth, he can search which book a certain sentence he wants appears in, and this speed is beyond the reach of the most intelligent computer.

But Karl didn't do it very often, and even for him, reading such a large number of books was very boring.

Finally reached the door of the principal's office, Carl stopped in front of the door, and then sighed inwardly.

"Still coming in?" There was an indiscriminate voice from inside the door.

Then there was Professor X's soft reprimand with implicit disapproval: "Eric! You are too cruel to the children."

Carl pushed open the door, and saw the chessboard in the middle of the office. Magneto and Professor X were sitting at one end of the chessboard. Magneto looked at him coldly with his arms folded, while Professor X was helpless.

The game showed that it was a tie.

It seems that they are in a good mood today.

"Charles, Eric." Carl smiled, "Long time no see."

Just as Magneto was about to say something, he was restrained by the professor's eyes.

Carl felt that the professor must have said something in Magneto's mind, otherwise Magneto couldn't have been so calm when he saw him--today Magneto didn't wear that ugly gay purple helmet that made him cry.

"You're back, Carl." The professor said softly, with a relaxed smile in his voice, "What are you up to lately? You always put down the mutants who can go berserk, and then leave in a hurry. What's bothering you?" Is it your turn?"

As he looked over, Cal couldn't help thinking of a favorite description used in real-world fan fiction: Those blue eyes are as charming as cornflowers.

"... I have encountered some things, but they are not things that you can help, professor." Carl did not perfunctory, he knew that the professor would ask him about this matter sooner or later.

Magneto on the side snorted uncomfortably: "I think so, why would Superman need us? We have always needed Superman."

"Eric!"

"Sorry, it's my problem."

Carl and Professor X started talking almost at the same time. Hearing what Carl said, the professor frowned and explained to him:

"Eric isn't blaming you, he just thinks you don't trust us enough. I know you have your reasons, Carl, when we first met you were a kid with unbelievable powers, but you've always used yours Helping others, never losing control, acting calmly even when seeing the misery of fellow human beings..."

"He just doesn't care. He's escaping from reality," Magneto interrupted the professor. "He hasn't experienced the pain himself. He thinks he's strong enough to be fearless. He's aloof and sees himself as a savior. He's not calm. , he is indifferent! Charles, you are still so naive!"

Come, come again.

This is the most important reason why Carl doesn't like dealing with Magneto very much, and avoids Magneto every time he sends someone to the Brotherhood. Unlike the professor, Magneto doesn't believe that mutants and ordinary people can coexist peacefully, even in the peaceful status quo Let his attitude soften a little, but he always insists that this peace is just a temporary tranquility.

Karl doesn't deny this, and from the bottom of his heart he even agrees with Magneto's idea very much.

Couldn't Magneto's deep-rooted hostility to ordinary people reflect a certain part of ordinary people's deep-rooted hostility to mutants?

"Eric," Carl said.

His words were very gentle, but powerfully interrupted the confrontation between Magneto and Professor X. The professor first turned his head and focused his eyes on him, as if one of the quarreling parties always fell silent first.

Magneto looked at the professor for a few seconds, his expression seemed to be disappointment and relief, and after a while he slowly turned his head and looked at Carl.

"Listen, the reason I'm not involved in this is because I'm not a mutant. I'm neither a mutant nor a psychic, I'm not a wizard, I'm not a mage, and I don't have bloodlines of any kind."

"You're still denying your mutant status," Magneto said.

"I trust him," said the professor.

He's still looking at Carl, but it's clear the words are mainly addressed to Magneto.

... Here it comes, here it goes again.

The three of them obviously occupy a vertex of the triangle, but the two people on the opposite side have the ability to turn the most stable triangle into the shortest line between the two points. They all looked at Carl, but every word they said to Carl was different. It was for Carl and the other party.

What can I do, Carl thought, no one is listening to me, and I'm desperate.
