Charles is in a better situation, but it is limited. After all, he is impossible, and he is not the kind of person who can do whatever he wants. He and Eric are like two sides of the same coin, interdependent and absolutely different.

——The rebellious Eric still has a friend and foe like Charles, who can entrust his life and turn his back to the other party when necessary, without worrying about being stabbed. What about Tony?And me?Tony seems to have a serious lack of trust in others, and he has no one of his kind who can safely turn his back to him to protect.I—nor have I, because I don't know anyone who is like me.

Hank noticed that she was a little depressed, and lightly touched her arm, "Don't worry, Charles will take care of himself. You too, take care of yourself, and we will take care of you. Whether you are a mutant or not, you have With superpowers similar to mutants, I will treat you as one of us, a family."

She looked up at him: Hank really has the demeanor of a big brother.His superpowers are too common among a group of Alphas, but he is a senior engineer in mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. Talents.Compared with the members of the Avengers, it is the young version of Tony Stark, who is also proficient in genetic biology, and is responsible for the mutant gene project with Charles.

They were stopping outside the door of a classroom, and Alicia was surprised to see Teresa Lubell standing in front of the podium.

"This class is "How to Distinguish Mutants from Green Creatures." We invited foreign aid to teach this class." Hank bent down and whispered in her ear.

This is really a must-have class.

Hank led her into the classroom and made her sit in the back seat.

Teresa was a little surprised that she would appear at the school for gifted teenagers, while Tommy Keelan, who was caught to attend the class, was quite surprised.

Most of the low-level mutants have a second appearance, most of them resemble animals, which makes it difficult to distinguish them from Green creatures in appearance.Of course, the Greens have a way to identify who is a Green creature and who is a mutant, but mutants usually cannot tell the difference between the two. If low-level mutants mistakenly think that the Green creature is their own kind, then... many times it will end badly. would be great.

Green creatures are terribly aggressive to all "non-me races", even if they are gentle and timid, their nature is still "Animals" and will spare no effort to defend their territory; mutants are always "human" , the two are definitely different.

After class, Teresa stopped Alicia, "Why did you come here? Didn't you—" Temple disciples will have intersections with mutants?It's really strange.

She replied calmly: "I'm here to see Professor Xavier to find out if I'm a mutant or not."

Teresa suddenly said, "So—" Well, a Templar who is a mutant?It's even more interesting.

Lunch is for 4 people to eat together.

It is not uncommon for strange children to occasionally come to sit in on the school or visit the trial class.

But of course, everyone took a few extra glances at the pretty girl.

Teresa told Hank that the content of this class might be difficult for X Academy students to get in touch with, and mutants below the Delta level need to learn to distinguish.

"We have neglected this matter, and we have not paid enough attention to it. In the past, we did not know the existence of Grimm and Grimm creatures. Now, according to statistics, it is found that more than 50% of the conflicts between mutants and humans are confused with Grimm creatures." Han Ke explained, "So please come and teach this class. In the future, we will organize the content of the class into a brochure and distribute it through internal channels."

Teresa agreed, "It's better than finding out that it wasn't Green creatures but mutants after we tracked it down for a long time. I hope that similar situations can be reduced." Complete elimination is also impossible, as both mutants and Green creatures are hidden in the Among ordinary humans, it is no wonder that ordinary humans are so afraid of mutants, and it is difficult to accept them peacefully.The advantage of green creatures is that most of them are regarded as folk legends or urban legends. Even if many people see the true colors of green creatures, they will think that they are hallucinating.

Mutants have basically revealed their identities, so they have been in an embarrassing and difficult situation-couldn't be like Eric, thinking about destroying ordinary humans at every turn?

On the road to survival, mutants are struggling just like green creatures.

When Tommy suddenly learned that his girlfriend might be a mutant, he was very surprised, and his attitude changed, as if deliberately alienating him.

Teresa didn't notice, Alicia didn't care, and Hank was a little angry.

After lunch, Teresa left with Tommy.

Alicia is still eating oranges.

Hank just blinked and Pietro was sitting next to her.

"Hi new girl, what's your name?"

She glanced at him and said nothing.

"What's your name? What's your name? What's your name!"

Hank frowned dissatisfiedly, "Pete!"

Pietro smiled hippie, "Do you like oranges? Today's oranges are not bad, look! I took a few more." Putting oranges on the dining table one by one, more than a dozen were placed in a short while.

Hank raised his forehead: "Pete—" You really should have a good discussion with this kid about discipline.There is no limit to the amount of fruit after a meal, but no one takes a dozen of them at once.

Alicia was amused.Pietro cut an orange and put it in front of her. "You look cute when you eat and you smile. But I can't always call you a 'laughing girl'."

"Alicia Heath."

"My name is Pietro Maximov. Are you a new student? Are you here to meet the professor? Did you know that our rooms are exactly opposite each other?"

Hank said in time, "I'll take you home."

Stephen Strange returned to the Temple in the evening.

After explaining things to the other mages, I went to Alicia. "Ellie," knocked on the door, "are you there?"

"Come in." The door opened by itself.

Her room is a bedroom with a small living room. In the living room, there is a group of rattan chairs with various cushions thrown on the rattan chairs.She nestled in one of the wicker chairs, wearing khaki twill shorts, with bare legs and no shoes on her feet, and placed them on the low table in front of the wicker chair.

A thick and large ancient book was spread out on his lap, and a linen square was placed under the book.

"I heard you went to Westchester today."

"Go, I'll be back in the afternoon." She didn't look up.

"What did Professor Xavier say?"

"It is said that I am likely to be a mutant, but they can't be sure until they compare the genetic sequences."

Strange sat down on the wicker chair beside her, "Do you want to go to the school for gifted youth?"

"I don't know, I'm not sure, maybe I don't want to go. The Super Boy School mainly teaches young mutants to correctly understand and master their own abilities. I don't need it."

Said it right.Magic is a new world that she has never touched before, and she will want to stay and learn magic more.

Strange breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, and Teresa was at school today, How to Tell Mutants From Green Creatures, and Tommy was there too. He seemed uncomfortable hearing I might be a mutant."

"That depends on how much you like him."

Alicia finally looked up and looked at him, "It's just a boy. Now that I'm old enough to be in a relationship, how could I only have one boyfriend."

It seems that there is no problem.

For her, the process may be important, and it doesn't matter who her boyfriend is.

But why does it always feel like something is wrong?

Strange was dazed for a moment, realizing that maybe he had to try being a parent.

Ah, what a headache.Wonder what Tony did?Bah, he did a terrible job, but he must learn his lesson.

On the weekend, Tommy called to say that he couldn't come to pick her up and that he had to go on a mission.

A planned appointment was cancelled, and with a few hours to spare, Alicia went to the Metropolitan Public Library to pick up a book.

Ezekiel Jones is flabbergasted: "What?! There are boys who don't want to date you?" That's impossible!

Alicia didn't think there was anything, "Not everyone will like me." Of course, she knows what superpowers she has. "Everyone loves me" is not 100% effective, and some people can be immune. Now she Think, those who are immune to her might be mutants.

As for Tommy, he just learned that there is an unknown world of alien creatures that exists side by side in the real world, and he is still in the midst of a major shock in his life. Mutants are not news, but if his girlfriend might be a mutant, he would also Like most ordinary humans, she would panic and be overwhelmed - her superpowers were considered effective if she didn't think about killing her.

She doesn't go to school anymore, but her weekly schedule is full.Strange would practice magic with her in the temple, and Master Wang would tell her the principles of magic; go to the library at least once a week, Jack taught her history and archaeology, and Ezekiel taught her to slip the door and unlock it—although she There is no need at all, Cassandra gave her a systematic description of the magic line of the earth, saying that since human society entered the agricultural civilization, the age of magic and the period of magic dormancy have alternated, just like the ice age, there will be a fluctuation, magic recovery and small The cycles of the Ice Ages almost coincide, and during the Little Ice Age global temperatures dropped, and there was a small resurgence in magic.

This kind of argument that combines modern social science with ancient magic is quite new. The Templar Master would not analyze the problem in this way, but Master Wang also said that since the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century, magic has indeed declined for nearly 200 years. Years began to recover slowly.Reflecting on Karma Taj, since January last year, the number of new disciples they recruited is three times that of previous years. This is a good harvest.

Cassandra has super synaesthesia, and her mathematical calculation ability is extremely powerful. Combining mathematical algorithms with magic is her invincible strength.Alicia does not have super computing power, but has invincible magic talent.Master Wang was worried that she would be confused if she studied magic outside, but of course she didn't.After introducing mathematical calculations into the Karma Taj magic system, the disciples in the trial class all accelerated their understanding.

Karma Taj's previous teaching system still paid attention to "epiphany", and did not pay much attention to the combination of magic teaching and modern education system. Many disciples lingered outside the door for a long time and could not get in. Now this change, Stephen · Strange thought it was a good thing, but Master Wang was still a little tangled.

"If you think of it this way, most of the people who seek out Karma Taj do it because of their own problems, some physical, some spiritual, we are 'handicapped' people, in a sense, we The understanding of oneself affects the understanding of magic, and the introduction of modern mathematics into Karma Taj will make it easier for those with modern education to understand what 'magic' is. Right now, the situation is grim."

Strange is very serious, "We know this world—no, it's this universe, there are aliens, there are extraterrestrial civilizations, and they are thousands of years ahead of the earth civilization, some aliens will think that we are quite backward, maybe Don't think we are a threat, but not general. Our crisis is not only from invaders, from aliens, or evil demon kings from multidimensional space, but also from the earth. There are always some crazy people who want to destroy the earth or rule Earth, we must prepare."

Alicia asked, "How to tell who is crazy?"

"Hitler." Master Wang replied.

Well, this example is very typical.

"Where's Dormammu?" asked again.

"Dormammu is no longer a 'human being', he is an existence beyond God, his greed makes him only understand destruction, he is a devourer, a destroyer, this is terrible, because he has lost his humanity, no Knows pity, but doesn't understand love." Strange concluded cautiously.

"He has evolved into a transcendent existence, of course he is 'not human', and he has lost his humanity, which is quite reasonable."

Strange sighed, "So, you know how heavy our responsibility is? The Avengers are targeting enemies that fell from the sky, or other enemies that can still be regarded as 'human', but Dormammu—"

Alicia suddenly understood, "Dormammu didn't die, or perish, right? You just drove him away."

He smiled bitterly, "I don't have that much ability yet, so I can only negotiate with him countless times. I am very persistent. In the end, he had to accept my conditions and leave the earth temporarily. In other words, the earth in this parallel universe .”

"What else? The king has never told me the whole story, and the Templar mage doesn't like to write any action reports. Besides Dormammu, are there other enemies?"

"There may be many. There will always be enemies, and some may even be former temple mages." Master Wang also smiled wryly.

"Mordo?"

"He is indeed a hidden danger." Although he is reluctant to mention it, he still needs to make it clear to her. "There is also Loki, and God knows what kind of madman or madman. Basically, most of our enemies are in the magical field, just like mutants. Their troubles are usually other mutants. Green is also, their troubles are all It's the Green creature and the Wesson royal family. Have you heard of it? The Greens believe that many famous people in history are Green creatures. Of course, there are also mutants. For example, Hitler is a werewolf, and Kennedy is a mutant."

"Where's Lincoln?"

"He's Green."

Alicia was intrigued, "How interesting! I should know more about this. Ah! That mustache once took my heart! But he killed himself anyway."

"It's not your heart's fault for keeping him alive. He had to die, and since he's a werewolf, it's likely that some Green killed him. He didn't necessarily commit suicide."

"Earth—it's kind of complicated. Tony said—he said Earth people are very arrogant,"

Strange grinned.

"Even though human technology has sent the Hubble Telescope into space orbit, and middle school textbooks say that the solar system is just an inconspicuous star in a corner of the universe, some people still think that the earth is the center of the universe."

"I don't think so." Strange laughed again, "I am very aware of the insignificance of the earth. From the perspective of the universe, we are so small that we should not be coveted by others. Most of our hidden dangers come from the earth. Human beings themselves, if you look at the cosmic level, you will find that it is not a big deal."

"It's too difficult to understand. I'm just an ordinary human being, and I shouldn't think about the safety of the earth."

Master Wang smiled and shook his head.

Charles Xavier emailed Alicia's genetic sequence comparison report to her and Tony Stark.

After getting the comparison report, Tony forwarded it to Bruce Banner. After reading the report, Bruce made a videophone call to Tony with an encrypted line.

"She's not a mutant? What does that mean?"

"No, Professor Xavier just said that she doesn't have any known mutant DNA, but her ability shows that she is a mutant, so he thinks that she just carries a mutant gene that they don't know. They only had time to compare the DNA The effective gene sequence of the 30 billion base pairs is only a small part, and there are still a large number of base pairs that have not been compared."

"I see." It's not difficult to understand.Just as she carries unique mitochondrial DNA, her mutant genes must also be unique.This is really exciting!

"And this." Tony handed him another DNA test report, "This is Ruby Dolan, take a look at her and Alicia's DNA test reports."

"Oh——" Bruce quickly compared the two test reports, "Clone? Who is Ruby?"

Asimov sent Ruby's information again.

"You can judge her long-term residence based on the trace elements in Ruby's teeth. As for her hair, it is useless now. You should test her hair in 06, so that we can know which country she was bred in." Clone. Also, are you sure that Ruby doesn't have any of Alicia's abilities?"

"I'm sure." Tony replied in a disinterested manner: "She is just an ordinary human being, otherwise she would have left Honglian long ago."

"Okay, putting aside the question of who made her - you should tell her about Ruby. I know you didn't, Tony, you can't really think of her as a child, she's not a child, she's very He is assertive and capable." Of course, Bruce didn't know what happened between the two of them, he only knew that Alicia had left the Avengers Headquarters building, and Tony was devastated all day long.

Tony is really having a hard time recently. He's single again and has angered Alicia. You can tell from the fact that he doesn't even care about the design of his new suit. He's really sad, but he never says it.

He said before that everyone has their troubles, why should they tell others about their troubles?You can only bear your own pain, and if you can bear it, everything is easy to say; if you can't resist it, you may always be depressed.

He told Bruce about his relationship with his father, Howard Stark, and his mother, Maria Stark. Howard never said "I love you, son", and when he was 21, they died Because of the car accident, he has always been troubled, thinking that his father was too stingy in expressing love, and he was too young at the time to communicate with his father better.

Bruce once said at the time that the problem between you and your father has become a problem between you and Alicia.You desperately want to be a "good father" and feel that you are thinking of her, but you just forget that Howard is the same, he doesn't say anything, and he doesn't know how to ask your opinion, which results in a cold relationship between father and son.And Alicia has no blood relationship with you, she can leave as soon as she says, and you don't even have a chance to make up.

You can't always make it up too late.

Tony reluctantly said, "She said she doesn't want to see me."

Bruce raised his forehead, "Have you tried to contact her? She is not a willful girl. If you tell her about Ruby, she will definitely listen carefully." No matter who heard that he actually had an adult clone, he would want to figure it out. "I made an appointment with her to go to your New Jersey factory for testing next week, and your custom particle detector has arrived."

Tony simply forgot about it.

So next week, Alicia opened a portal directly from the New York Temple to Stark Industries' New Jersey factory, on the outskirts of Jersey City.

After finishing the test, Tony Stark entered the room, "Alicia."

She looked at him and said nothing.

Tony was a little embarrassed, and gestured for Bruce to leave quickly with his eyes.

Bruce Banner pretended not to understand, but did not leave.

"Do you have something to say to Bruce?" What she actually wanted to ask was "Are your eyes cramping?"

"No, I have something to tell you." Tony had to take out Ruby's information, "Have you met her? Ruby Dolan, born in Ottawa in 1984, became the exclusive model of Sports Illustrated in 2006."

"And then?" Alicia took the folder, "Why did you tell me about this person?"

Then she saw Ruby's photo and mused, "Is she a bit like me? But I haven't seen the grown-up me."

"Flip back. Asimov used software to make a simulated image of you at the age of 20, and the DNA test report, Alicia, you have a—at least a clone."

The author has something to say: *Alicia's current abilities are similar to Apocalypse. Apocalypse's abilities include material reorganization, particle control, energy emission, immortality, etc.At the same time, it also has a strong self-healing ability and strength.But for indescribable reasons, Apocalypse cannot be written.

*Ivan's version of Kuaiyin is also a talkative kid.

*President Lincoln is Green This was inspired by the movie "Lincoln the Vampire Slayer".

* Genes and other nonsense.
