[Comprehensive] The Great Devil

"The CIA invited us to the United States."

After bidding farewell to Miss McTaggart, the three returned to the apartment, and before Raven asked, Charles consciously told them the shocking news.

Raven snorted coldly, "I guess it's not just for tea this time, is it?"

"That Miss McTaggart accidentally glimpsed something...something that was difficult for them to understand," Charles said with a strange expression, "I saw our kind in her memory. —Of course, I mean the more dangerous kind."

"She met mutants?" Serra asked. "How many?"

"Three, or four." Charles narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling, "Two men, a woman who exudes diamond light... and a red-skinned... demon?"

Raven was silent for a while, "Charles, this doesn't sound like a character worthy of our friendship."

The young professor gave a low cough, then looked at Sera, "What do you think? Is there any better suggestion?"

Serra bent down to pick up a schedule from the table, looked at it, then looked up and asked him, "Is there anything more important you need to get done recently?"

Charles immediately understood, and replied, "Of course not!"

Sera smiled slightly, "Then why don't we go?"

Raven rolled her eyes, "I hate you guys."

Charles asked the ladies for their advice, gentlemanly, "Well...how do you want to go?"

Sierra, "Do you want to go with that ZF agent?"

Charles, "Of course not!" He wasn't stupid enough to trust those people completely.

"Then..." Sera looked up at the clock on the wall, "You have two hours to pack your things and organize yourself, and during this period, I will book the air tickets and hotel rooms, and let them arrange Then the driver to your house—"

Seeing that she planned everything flatly, Charles couldn't help asking, "How do you know where my home is?"

And when did she actually manage to book a plane ticket?And a hotel?American hotel? —Oh God, what the hell has she learned all this time?

"I don't know," Serra replied, "but you'll tell the driver the address when you get in the car, won't you?"

Charles couldn't help laughing, "Indeed."

……

……

CIA Headquarters, Langley, Virginia, USA.

Moira thanked and welcomed them for their presence, inviting them into a conference room at headquarters, where higher ZF officials awaited them.

Charles Xavier understood their way of doing things very well for these high-level executives who took time out of their busy schedules to meet them. After a simple greeting, he went straight to the topic——

"...they may accelerate the process of genetic mutation—I think that many people with special abilities may already exist among us, and they may not be able to detect it temporarily, but this is an undeniable fact—"

"Thank you very much for listening, gentlemen."

The meeting room was silent for a few seconds.

Sitting at the long table, a grey-haired man wearing glasses but still imposing could not help but sneer shortly, then turned his head and said to Moira, "McTaggart, do you really think that with this weird scientist, Will it make me believe that the so-called sparkling women and men who can teleport?"

His face was full of absurdity and sarcasm, "You just bought yourself a one-way ticket to go back to work as a typist, and now I doubt whether you are qualified for the current job—" He closed the notepad, not allowing Decliningly announced, "The meeting is over, gentlemen and ladies."

Charles tried to stop him, "Slow down, please sit down, Agent McTaggart, and this...sir." He clasped his fingers, raised his eyebrows, his smile was still confident and gentle, "I didn't expect you would Believe me, because while I'm speaking, your mind is full of pies in the commissary—"

The man was taken aback for a moment, and then he heard the young professor think for a while, "Hmm...it's apple and pecan pie."

silence.

"I'm sorry, maybe I wasn't honest enough," Charles continued, although his voice was gentle, but there was a convincing momentum that made everyone stop and listen to him involuntarily, "You see, what I have One of your special abilities is that... I can know what you're thinking, clearly."

The man laughed again, with contempt and sarcasm at the corners of his mouth, and said to the crowd, "I've seen this kind of magic - so are you going to ask which number between one and ten we are thinking about now, Professor?"

Charles couldn't help laughing, as if he had come across something interesting, "No, Agent Stryker, I'll ask about your son William-although it's good to ask about numbers, but I want to ask more yes……"

He leaned forward slightly, his blue eyes were bright and deep, and he seemed to be hiding his magic power intently, as if he was whispering the words in a book, "It's about... the United States is deploying Cupid missiles in Turkey."

There was an uproar in the conference room, and the agent's eyes sank, and he looked at Moira in disbelief, "He's a spy!——You actually brought the spy here?!"

"No, sir, how could I?!" Moira tried to explain, "He's not—"

Seeing that things were about to become a big mess, Ruiwen, who had been silent all this time, immediately stood up, her blue skin flashed, and then she turned into an agent.

"..." The audience was silent.

Obviously, this picture is convincing and shocking enough.Ruiwen couldn't help sneering, and changed back to her true appearance, with blue skin, red hair, and honey-yellow eyes—obviously not the appearance of a normal human being.

Charles sighed, but at this point, he couldn't say anything more, and smiled slightly at the startled crowd, "Then how about this magic...?"

The middle-aged man sitting at the end couldn't help exclaiming, "It's the most incredible thing I've ever seen!"

"Get them out of here." The agent finally spoke out, still not recovering from the shock just now, "lock them up first...I want to think about what to do next—"

"Let them go to my agency," the middle-aged man interrupted him, and it was obvious that he had a certain right to speak here. Although the detective was very dissatisfied, he didn't continue to argue and let him take the three people away.

They came to the third floor of the parking lot, during which the middle-aged man kept expressing his surprise and disbelief, "...you know, I always thought that people like you existed among us, although it was always regarded as Laughing butt, but I firmly believe—”

Having said that, he couldn't help turning around, looked at Sera, who had a normal human appearance, who had never made a sound, with some doubts and expectations, and asked, "Well... forgive me for asking, ma'am, what is your ability? What is it?"

Sierra was about to answer, but Charles said one step ahead of her, "She is my right-hand man, an ordinary person, and she doesn't have any special abilities—if she had, she would have shown it a long time ago, wouldn't she?"

The middle-aged man was a little disappointed, but fortunately he soon returned to the excitement of seeing the mutant, turned around and continued to walk towards the garage, "Well, well... come with me, I think you will like my base of--"

"We have to wait first," Charles said, causing the other party's puzzled eyes, and the young man smiled slightly, "We have to finish an important thing first——Sebastian Shaw."

"A mutant with a big plan."

"If we don't act now, maybe he won't be found," Charles said.

"What?" The middle-aged man looked confused, "Who, who is Sebastian Xiao?"

"Not only can he read minds, but he can also talk through the air," Rui Wen lazily explained, "Just listen to him."

Charles opened the car door, let Sera sit in first, and then sat aside himself, explaining, "Miss Moira McTaggart 'told' me—hey, I want to see more Much 'magic'?"

The supervisor who was about to refuse to move forward said, "...I want to!"

Charles smiled, "Get in the car."

……

Off the coast of Miami.

In the middle of the night, the light of the lighthouse in the distance is faintly visible, and the blue ocean in the daytime now looks like a black hole, quiet and deep.Charles and his party sailed deeper into the ocean to find a luxury cruise ship named Caspadina, whose owner was the goal of their trip.

Sierra stood on the deck and looked at the dark night sky outside. She put on a black windbreaker outside, but she still looked very thin.The evening wind blew her brown curly hair and the hem of her clothes, and her figure almost blended into the night.

Then she heard very light footsteps, and then Charles walked slowly beside her, grabbed the railing, and looked at the night sky covered by dark clouds and moonlight tonight, then turned his head and stared at her side face, showing a flying bright smile.

"Did you know that whenever you stand by your side, within a distance of one meter, the world will become very quiet, just like the current ocean."

Sera turned her head and smiled slightly, her narrow eyes were deep and quiet, "Do you like this kind of quiet?"

Charles shrugged, "When I was very young, when I just knew that I could read other people's thoughts, and I couldn't control this ability, I was surrounded by countless noisy thoughts every day, even a moment of silence It's so precious to me—"

Sera watched him silently, waiting for his next words.

"But then I got used to it, and I gradually became able to control this talent, and even blocked out some of the voices I didn't need to hear, and those I needed were almost a piece of cake for me... I can know the true nature of most people. Thoughts." Charles stared at her with those blue eyes that were more intense and clear under the night, and the corners of his rosy lips raised slightly, revealing a regretful and helpless smile, "...But I can't hear your voice, Sierra."

"It strikes me as strange—not just because of my abilities, but also because...even if I don't read minds, I can't see through you, Sera."

"It made me feel very depressed and insecure."

Sera showed a smile. Her face was pale without blood, but her lips were light and full. When she smiled, there was a kind of glass-like innocence and fragility, and the purity and calmness that is rare at this age are contradictory enough to attract people. Nothing seemed to peel her smile off her beautiful face like a mask—

"Believe me, Professor," she said, her voice gentle and clear, "it may be safer for you this way."

Charles couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "Oh Sierra, that's not fair, you seem to know me well, and I don't know anything about you—"

Sierra rolled her eyes. "We've got a long time to get to know each other, don't we, Charles?"

The young professor blinked.He thought he seemed to be being teased again... or molested? —from an English girl who was eight years his junior?

All right.Charles touched his nose - he should be used to it, shouldn't he?It seemed that ever since she came into his life, he and Raven had never gained the upper hand from her, not once... She was obviously the weakest of them.

"Target found!" a soldier shouted to them.

"Oh!" Charles looked out, then blinked at Selah. "Things might get more dangerous later—you should go back to the cabin, Selah."

"Have you ever seen an assistant leave the boss alone during work hours?" she asked.

"..." Charles sighed, "Okay, then...be careful, this time we are not facing some unknown people."

"Yes, sir."

When the cruise ship appeared under the lights, the warning sounded all over the sea——

"We are the U.S. Coast Guard, don't try to drive away, stay where you are - repeat, don't try to drive away, stay where you are -"

The three watched the two teams of guards heading towards the cruise ship in a speedboat, and Ruiwen stared at everything from a distance, and couldn't help saying, "...I have a bad feeling, Charles—"

Soon, Sera saw an unusual gust of air flow on the sea surface, and it was getting bigger and stronger.She whispered, "They have a mutant who can manipulate the wind."

"Something's wrong——" Charles pressed his temple, frowned, as if something was blocking him, his voice came out of his throat with difficulty, "I can't sense Xiao——I, I can't find him —that never happened...there were people like me on that ship—”

"Same as you?" Moira asked in surprise.

"A telepath." Charles shook his head. "It's unbelievable...I can feel her presence—sorry, it seems that I may not be able to help you tonight. You have to rely on yourself."

The agent sighed.

Seeing that the guards were gradually approaching the cruise ship, suddenly a strong wind rushed from the sea, overturning the speedboat in an instant, and crushing several guards under the boat.

"Oh God——" Charles couldn't help but widen his eyes, and looked to the side of the cruise ship, "There's a person... There's another person there!"

"Where is it?" Moira asked.

Charles slowly pointed to the right side of the cruise ship, "There."

Immediately afterwards a spectacular scene happened - the huge anchor of the cruise ship slowly rose from the water, as if a pair of invisible hands were manipulating him, entangled the cruise ship round and round like a rope, causing almost Devastating damage.

"What the hell is this!" The female agent widened her eyes.

"A mutant..." murmured Charles, "can manipulate metal...at least for now."

Soon they discovered the figure of the instigator—a man who seemed to have an incomparable obsession with the cruise ship and tried to stop it, but apparently his strength was still insufficient, and the cruise ship in turn dragged him underwater. Sneaking, he was dragged deep into the water, even so he did not let go—

"Let go—" Charles couldn't help shouting at him, "you've got to let it go—you'll drown—"

Regardless of the other party's disregard, his head sank into the water, and some air bubbles came out—he couldn't hold on for long.

"Charles—" Sela yelled, trying to stop him, but he still jumped into the water without hesitation, and she only had time to touch the corner of his shirt.

Boom—the professor sank into the water and swam towards the opponent.

Sera slowly withdrew her hand, she clenched the railing, watched condescendingly as he rescued a handsome dark-haired man, and carried him back to the side of the boat with the help of the guards, asking them to put the unconscious man down good.Until his wet clothes were blown by the night wind after landing, he couldn't help but hugged his arms tightly, shivering from the cold——

A windbreaker was draped over his body, and it still carried the warmth from the human body.

Charles was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at Sera with a calm expression, and showed a bright smile, "Thank you, Serra... um... Although you gave me a lady's trench coat...but I am still very grateful. It is very warm .”

"Stop doing this, Professor." Sera glanced at him without a smile on his face, "Think about it, if you are so reckless and impulsive again, sacrificing yourself... If something happens, then the rest of me and Raven... what should we do?"

These words were too destructive to Charles, the young professor couldn't help but shuddered, smiled wryly, and consciously admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, Sierra... I will think twice next time."

"There are at least twenty agents who are better at water and stronger than you, and you choose to deprive them of their job opportunities." Sera stared at him lightly, "——There will be no next time, Professor. Otherwise ...I'll show you what it's like to eat mashed potatoes for a month."

Charles, "...I definitely won't do it again! Trust me! I swear!"

Then he changed the subject and tried to look left and right obviously, wondering, "Where is Raven?"

"She is visiting the person you gave your life to save." Sera replied lightly.

Charles, "...sorry - I mean it."

Sera watched him calmly, and he met hers back with wet, expectant blue eyes.Finally, Sela rolled her eyes.

"Come on," she said, and then reminded her as she took a step, "—before you go to see that companion, take off my trench coat and put on your own, Professor."

Charles, "...OK."
