Friendly neighbors are villains

In the end, Eric still agreed to activate the mutant power hidden in her body for Amy, not because of the sacred and funny title of "dady", but because he knew very well that Amy, as an ordinary person, was in this world The world barely moves an inch.

Although these people around her now, including Eric himself, may do their best to protect her, but no one can guarantee that they can stay by Amy's side 24 hours a day.That is neither realistic nor meaningful, and the safest way is to let girls gain power.

Not to mention fighting against those terrible super criminals, Amy is indeed smart and calm enough, but she doesn't even have the most basic ability to protect herself.

Amy needs power, not the uncertainty that equipment brings her that can be taken away by others at any time, but the power that truly belongs to her.

Eric is indeed very experienced in this area. For this reason, he invented a device that can activate mutant superpowers in just 10 minutes, which is very convenient.

Although the risk also increases geometrically.

"You don't feel pain, at least you can reduce the pain by 80.00%." ​​Eric injected Amy's arm, and the color of the potion was light green, not like a liquid, but a bit like a gel, "the rest Next, I don’t know how your body will react during the whole process, everyone is different, even if you can’t bear it, the machine will not stop, if you regret it, it’s still too late.”

Amy watched the suspicious liquid enter her veins, her arms were cold for a while, and then became hot again. Then, she felt that her heartbeat was accelerating unnaturally.

"What are the consequences of failure? You haven't told me yet." Amy's breathing was a little short. I don't know if it was caused by the medicine after the injection or because of nervousness.

"Death is the easiest end." Eric said, with faint persuasion in his words, "You may become a puddle of flesh, leaving only a thin layer of human skin, but your consciousness is clear, or, Organs shifted all over the body and turned into ugly monsters."

"Looking at it this way, death is indeed the most comfortable result." Amy took a deep breath, "How do you deal with failed products?"

"Burn it with fire." Eric said without mercy, "But if you become like that, I won't do it."

"Then what are you going to do, find a way to change me back?" Amy has no intention of giving up, she has just saved the file.

Although there is no guarantee that she can really be resurrected after death, after all, it is no longer a virtual game, but Amy still made various preparations step by step.

"Yes, I will find a way to restore you, so the premise is that your body must be preserved, so I will soak you in the nutrient solution first, and then slowly study the recovery method, which is a long process , and you will live in pain." Eric said almost threateningly.

"If I really become like that, someone else should be the one who is disgusting." Amy shrugged and pretended to be calm, "It's time to start, I hope the result is not too bad, I am still very satisfied with my current face and figure, I don't want plastic surgery."

Seeing that Amy was indifferent to his intimidation just now, Eric said helplessly, "Have you always been like this?"

"Which area are you referring to?" The uncomfortable scalding heat just now disappeared, replaced by a sore feeling of weakness. Amy didn't know what kind of potion Eric injected, but judging from his expression, it seemed that the time for the experiment was up. .

"In any aspect, such as work, the means are used to achieve the goal." Eric manipulated the various buttons on the display and said to Amy at the same time, "Lie in."

Behind Amy is an activation chamber made of completely transparent material. When she lay down according to Eric's instructions, five white leather buckles popped up on the neck and limbs, trapping her in it .

The sudden restraint surprised Amy.

"Don't be nervous, relax." Eric said in a soothing tone, "Just to prevent you from hurting your own device during the transformation process."

"It's not unscrupulous, I just want to live a more comfortable life, get a new computer or something." Amy responded to his last question, "I also want to earn some pension for my mother."

"Understood." Eric said, "Don't be afraid, your power is very powerful. I discovered it when I first saw you. The activation process should be smooth."

"What kind of mutant ability do you think I will have?" Amy relieved the stress by chatting. To be honest, she really didn't want to turn into a puddle of meat, let alone translocate her organs. Ass eats.

"There is no direction to guess, we will know when the result comes out, now, don't talk, close your eyes." Eric is about to start the device.

At this time, Peter rushed into the laboratory hidden in the cellar. After Eric left the cube prison, he found this place and secretly conducted experiments to activate mutants.

Peter still had an apron hanging around his waist, as if he had come running from the kitchen. Someone told him that Amy was going to undergo a transformation.

"Amy, you don't have to do this!" Peter was sweating anxiously outside the activation chamber, and he said to Eric, "Is it too late to get her out of it now?"

"It's too late." Amy said before Eric spoke, "Peter, this is just a game, don't worry about me, you can start over if anything happens."

"We both know this place isn't a game," Peter said. "Don't you try to lie to me, Amy, I told you I could tell you were lying."

Amy sighed: "Dad, can you get him out, only at this time I think he really talks too much."

Hearing Amy's name, Eric and Peter were taken aback at the same time, and the next second, Eric swept Peter out of the room.

"Thank you." Amy said with a smile, "By the way, Eric, just ask, do you have money?"

"I don't need that thing to survive." Eric said, "You should keep the title you just had."

"When you and Professor X hadn't gotten into trouble before, he was the one who provided you with funds, right?" Amy said.

"Yes." Eric said, "Okay, shut up, you have a lot to say." He pressed a button, and the smoke filled the chamber, which was hypnotic gas.

In fact, every potential mutant that Eric used to activate was transformed during sleep, and they did not experience unbearable pain and discomfort during the whole process as he said.Only those who failed could no longer live in the form of normal people. Eric ended their lives in order to reduce their pain.

He had lied to Amy with the horrible description earlier, just to make her give up automatically.

Before falling asleep, Amy said: "If you cooperate with him again, can you ask Professor X to provide me with sponsorship? I actually want to start my own game company, but foreigners need local guarantees to do business in the United States... ..."

Her voice was muffled in the transparent cover, which was unreal, but Eric still heard the girl's appeal clearly.

Amy couldn't see anything, there was only darkness in front of her eyes, she was very awake, but the system reminded her that she was undergoing a mutant transformation experiment and was in a coma.A countdown is displayed in the lower left corner of the screen, about 5 minutes, during which Amy cannot operate anything.

Usually in this case, the player can take off the VR glasses, go to the bathroom or visit the webpage to pass the upgrade time, but Amy obviously can't do this, she is in the game.

"Amy, is it you?" A voice appeared in the black hole.

Amy was slightly taken aback.

"I'm Professor X," said the voice. "Charles, I hope you recognize my voice."

Amy instinctively stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to find something in the dark picture. Of course, she couldn't touch anything. Amy was not even allowed to reach out, because she Still in a coma.

"It's me, Professor." Amy could only respond to the air, "Are you using telepathy? Wait, are you with the Avengers superheroes?"

"I should have asked you the question, but since you asked first." Charles paused, "Yes, I was with them, well, I think you already know that there is a crisis in this world This means that you have not left and are still in this place, so our subsequent conversation can save a lot of process, and the result will be much smoother.”

"Where are you?" Amy asked eagerly. "I need your help."

"We are in a very hidden and safe place. I can't tell you the exact location yet, because I have to confirm that you are Amy himself." Charles said, "Now, answer me a question, you met Eric ?"

"I've already had a showdown with him about having his genes." Amy understood what Charles meant. He didn't mention others and only said Eric. Naturally, it was because Amy and Eric had a special relationship in name. , and people who know about it can count on one hand, "Eric is trying to get me to call him something more intimate."

"Well, I'm sure you're Amy." Charles said relievedly.

"Then how can I be sure that you are Professor X?" Amy said.

"You said I was handsome, and you stroked my face with great interest." Charles said without thinking.

Amy said with some embarrassment: "I just pinched it, not touched it, it seems that you are fake."

"Okay, you know I'm real, and then I have a very important message to convey to you. If Eric is by your side, and he is not hostile to you, you can tell him what I told you. I know." Charles put away his joking tone, and said seriously, "Our current location is [-] kilometers below the South Pacific Ocean, and you can't find it for the time being, and of course the enemy is the same. The deep sea reaches the surface, and I can't get in touch with anyone but you."

"But why did you find me now?" Amy said.

"Did I say that when you wake up, I can't sense your existence, and I can only find you when you fall into a deep sleep." Charles explained, "I guess you are asleep now, and your The amount of sleep you get is pitifully low, you seem to sleep very little, but none of that matters."

Amy is waiting for his important news, and she is also thinking about whether she should tell the other party what she knows, but those contents cannot be explained or understood by the other party simply by the transmission of brain waves .

"Amy, you have to find a way to find Doctor Strange. He is trapped in a distorted space." Charles said, "The doctor discovered the secret that the Duke is a magician, but he disappeared not long after. Messaged me once and we knew where he was but couldn't find the entrance to it."

"Strange is in the mirror space, and mages can do that." Amy immediately understood that entering the space requires a suspension ring, and now she has one in her hand, "But, how can you be sure that I can find it?"

Strange is indeed Amy's next target. Before she entered the activation chamber, she was still thinking about how to investigate the doctor's whereabouts, but now she doesn't need to bother.

"I'm not sure, but Strange is sure, he said you don't belong to this world, and only people who don't belong here can enter the space he's trapped in." Charles said, his voice began to be broken and incoherent, which meant that There was unstable interference in the telepathic connection, "Don't tell me anything else. I'm glad you're safe and sound. I hope Eric can accept you. Now, I'll give you a coordinate."

The coordinates in Charles' mouth were two sets of numbers rather than an exact place name. Amy could only understand that it should be the latitude and longitude through the subtitles.

"Amy, you're about to wake up. I have a lot of plans that I don't have time to let you know, but it's okay, we will meet you as much as possible." Charles' voice was a little hurried, "Before that, you and Eric don't You are not his opponents if you easily confront the Duke head-on."

"Charles!" Amy interrupted. She noticed that there were less than 10 seconds left in the countdown. "This world is fake. It's a game. Someone trapped you here. You can only break it by reaching the end." Space." Amy felt that it was necessary for her to pass on this matter, whether Charles could understand it or not, at least, with his wisdom and reason, Charles would think about this sentence instead of immediately thinking that Amy was going crazy.

"What game are you talking about?" Charles didn't seem to hear clearly, his telepathy was very weak, he could only hear a few key words, but he couldn't form a complete sentence.

"Peter is with me too, Charles, Peter is with me." Amy conveyed the message as concisely as possible.

She didn't hear back from Charles, the telepathy ended, and Amy wasn't sure if the other party heard them all.In this era of advanced communication, it is ridiculous that the connection between people still has to rely on such an ancient way.

A dazzling glare appeared in front of Amy's eyes, piercing the screen like a sharp knife tearing through the darkness. She quickly closed her eyes, and the sound of the machine ending and turning off came from her ears.

Not long after, Peter's face continued to magnify outside the transparent cover, and Amy saw many emotions in the boy's eyes, including worry, confusion, tension, and relief.

"Have I become something strange?" Amy opened her mouth and found that her voice was extremely hoarse, and she began to worry about whether her facial features were misplaced.

"No," Peter said. "You don't look like you've changed, except that you're sweating a lot."

"Thank goodness." Amy woke up as if she had just dozed off. She didn't feel uncomfortable or comfortable, but she seemed to be struggling to speak.

The straps loosened automatically, and Amy couldn't wait to sit up.

Eric pulled Peter away from the transparent cover of the activation chamber: "Don't move around, the transformation has just ended, your body needs to adapt, whether you can feel the abnormality or not." He pressed the switch, and the cover gradually lifted , white smoke spilled from it.

"Did it work?" she asked Eric, and Amy felt that she was no different than before.

"Yes." Eric said, "It's a success, all the statistics show ideal results, congratulations on joining the mutant family." His tone was slightly sarcastic.

Amy slowly sat up, she saw Hannibal and Harry were also in the room, there was no extra emotion on their faces, only Peter was the most active here.The boy wanted to reach out and touch Amy's skin, the exposed skin was slightly red, and Eric stopped him in the next second.

"How do you feel now?" Eric asked.

Amy looked at herself seriously: "I don't feel anything, just a little thirsty." She said.

Peter quickly ran to the side and poured a glass of water for Amy.

"So what should I do now to prove that I have superpowers?" Amy drank the water, and she licked her lips. "It's my first time doing this, so I may not be proficient."

Peter said in the tone of someone who has experienced it: "You can try jumping or running, that's what I did when I first felt different." He seemed to be looking forward to it, and was more curious than Amy about what kind of ability it would be .

Of course, not only Peter, but everyone in the room paid full attention to Amy.

Eric didn't stop Amy from going to the ground, he said: "Have you felt it? The power stored in your body may spread from any part to the whole body. You just need to release it." He moved his fingers, and everything in the room contained All metal components are suspended in mid-air.

Amy imitated Eric's movements and shook her arms, but everything around her remained unresponsive.

"Don't worry, feel it first, find it, and let it adapt to your body." Eric said, "No matter what kind of power it is, it already exists in your body. You can try mind control and use your mind to control it. To manipulate something, or influence the mind of a person."

"You can control me," Peter volunteered, "like ordering me never to leave you."

Eric kind of wanted to throw him out.

Amy tried different methods, but she couldn't sense the so-called power that Eric and Peter said. She felt that she was no different from usual.Eric repeatedly confirmed the data, saying that the transformation was indeed successful, just as successful as his transformation of other talented mutants.

Just when Amy wondered whether her settings had been tampered with by Borg, the system finally popped up an exciting reminder.

[Congratulations to the player for winning the title of mutant, you can check your superpowers in the background. 】

"I think I know where to find the power." Amy told them, she eagerly opened the character information bar, and there was a new file box at the end, which showed the player's newly unlocked mutant ability.

"What is it?" Peter was already familiar with the movement of her pulling the air. "Can it fly? Or become transparent? Or release electricity?"

Amy stared at the board with a complicated expression: "PlotArmor."

"Really?" Peter didn't understand.

In fact, neither did anyone else.

Amy took a deep breath and slowed down her words word by word: "My mutant power is [Protagonist Halo]."

The author has something to say: Who doesn't want to have this halo, who doesn't want to!
