251 Oath

When Eric looked at the scenery seventy years ago, his invisible eyes also searched for him seventy years later. He was the controller of the soul and one of the strongest mutants, but this time, Professor Xavier encountered a complete failure on his home court.

"Or it wasn't found?" With a sigh, the light and shadows in the search room dissipated. Seeing the professor shook his head and pinch the skin between his eyebrows tiredly, John forced himself to ask the old man in his heart.

"No." After pinching his forehead for a long time, the professor recovered his spirit. He had searched many times these days, searching every corner of the blue planet, and went deep into the deep seabed from the distant space. He spent a lot of effort to pay attention to places that were difficult to enter before, but he never found the trace of that person.

Maybe the old friend's exile sent Eric to the ectopic plane--the professor was guessing this, but it was difficult to explain to the students.

When Stephen took action that day, when his thinking of trying to spy on the virus mutant encountered setbacks, the information flow transmitted from the trillions of virus cells with simple judgment instantly poured in like magma, torturing his brain desperately, as if it was watered by hot boiled water. In that case, it was impossible to interfere in Dr. Strange's actions.

Besides, I had an experience of hostility with Eric in the past. Although the professor had a clear conscience this time, Stephen was indeed his friend. He was not aware of the young people in the academy who had warned Eric in advance. If they said it all, what would they think of themselves? After experiencing the last storm, the old man really didn't want to be given up by the closest person in his lifetime again in his lifetime.

He could not explain the truth to the students, nor could he convince Dr. Strange. So now he could only hope that Eric himself would find a solution.

Fortunately, the professor no longer has to face the disappointed children this time. The two of them had just walked out of the danger room and a slim red figure appeared in front of them.

"Qin!" John screamed, and in an instant his tears almost flowed out, and he finally endured it back.

The mentor suddenly disappeared. He was the one who was under the most pressure, as Eric's most valued student. During this period, all matters were carried on Huo Ren-the agreement with the New York police was to be fulfilled, and the Boston factory area should be paid attention to. More and more compatriots need to be received, and at the same time they have to deal with the pressure generated by all aspects. He was pushed to the position of new leader without any preparation.

Now he finally knew that not everyone could sit in this position. The instructor sat very steadily because his wisdom and strength were enough to control.

In order to protect his mentor's career, he gritted his teeth and held on. If it were the former John, the fire man, had probably completely collapsed.

However, now he finally found a strong backing.

"I'm back, Eric won't have anything to do." Qin has recovered from the personality chaos caused by rapid increase in strength. At this moment, her power is stronger than ever, and her understanding of the world is becoming clearer.

"I can feel that Eric's magnetic field is everywhere here. Although his will is not here, his power will naturally call and pull him back from the lost space. It only takes some time." Qin said lightly, and directly issued an order to the young man. "I will solve the matter of Eric. As for the matter of the academy, John will find a way. I want you to get everything outside before he comes back."

She gave orders like a proud queen. Her fiery red hair was burning in the void, and anyone who felt her determination expressed obedience without exception.

John nodded and took his classmates away first. Many things did happen during this period. Compared to the outside world's temptation, his troubles came more from the inside and from his best friends. Fortunately, Qin's return finally calmed down. Now it's time to make up his mind.

Leaving the underground space and returning to the main building, the college is no longer as deserted as before. There are children moving around in the corridors. These are mutant children from all over the country, with more than 400 people, and they are gradually increasing over time.

Originally, according to Eric's plan, they could have placed better, but the things that happened some time ago made people panic. Although in the semi-closed academy, these children instinctively realized that something was wrong and looked at the adults with timid eyes every day. John had to hide his worries deeply in his heart, and acted as if nothing had happened on the surface.

But now he doesn't have to worry anymore.

He greeted his younger brothers and sisters with a happy look. Seeing them running outside happily, John and his party came to the conference room. In addition to the original boys and girls, they also included many newly joined important partners, and more than 30 people occupied most of the room.

As soon as John closed the conference room door, he shouted Bobby.

"We will not consider your last proposal. Please tell Miss Evocht clearly that the Boston factory is the boss's efforts, and I will never hand it over, and ask her to give up!"

His tone was very harsh. In the impression of his classmates, it was the first time that the Fire Man was so rude to the Ice Man. They were best friends before and were best friends. Even if John came from behind and surpassed Baby, these friends with the opposite ability still cared about each other like brothers. However, during the days when Eric disappeared, the situation changed slightly.

Miss Evocht is the reporter Christine, the niece of Ms. Mora. This reporter, whose mother's surname was once a honeymoon with the college, when she reported on the behalf of the mutant's persecution. In return, Eric handed over all the scoops to her. It was not until the female reporter was promoted to the administrative director of her newspaper that she had succeeded and fame that she began to neglect to fulfill her obligations, and the relationship between the two parties faded.

Later, Peter's colleague Eddie divided part of the power of reporting, and then the incident of Mora instigating Professor to attack Eric, and the lady never came to the door again. John originally thought it would be difficult to see her again, but who knew that this powerful reporter had somehow got involved with Baby.

Through Baby, a female reporter made a request on behalf of a certain force to buy the entire production process of the Boston factory with a sum of cash and shares.

Strictly speaking, the acquisition amount cannot be said to be not rich, which is enough to solve the economic pressure caused by the placement of compatriots. However, John is the successor chosen by Eric. He knows that the profit generated by this factory is second, and the most important aspect is to maintain relationships in all aspects - the Academy and S.H.E.L.D., Academy and Exploration Aerospace. In addition, Osborne Industry and even Stark, all companies that need supermagnetic materials must accept the reality of mutants entering the business world. If you only win the gratitude of ordinary people, then this gratitude is as illusory as bubbles floating on the water surface, coming and going quickly, and it must not be maintained for a long time. Only by constantly delving into various fields of society can it be said that it has truly taken root in mankind.

Compared with this goal, what is a sum of money?

John looked at Baby with an unprecedented stern look. Baby moved his mouth and wanted to defend himself a few words, but when he came into contact with the Fire Man's gaze, his courage suddenly melted like the remaining snow encountered the hot sun. In addition, due to his personal relationship with Christine, his girlfriend Mary announced her breakup with him, and Katie also had an objection to him. Now he was too late to make up for his mistakes, so how could he have the courage to object?

After all, Baby is still the kind of good man in the traditional sense. He is kind, but not firm in will; he has a spirit of dedication, but he dares not really sacrifice everything. He is always wandering at the right and wrong, longing to escape from difficulties, but he is reluctant to change reality, and is firmly bound by the concept instilled in him by society, as easily merciless as a marionette.

In the past, many people valued his calmness, but in the changing situation, his weaknesses were fully revealed.

"We are mutants, and this will not change." John walked to the stage and looked at his companions below one by one and said solemnly. "The leader said before that if someone forgets this, human beings will remind him--this sentence is right. The blood on the operating table of the military, large enterprises and Hydra can tell everything. Now please let me add a few words: beside you, your brothers and sisters, behind your brothers and sisters, our compatriots. If someone turns his back on his position and tries to be deserters, then big enterprises will catch him; if big enterprises cannot catch him, then there is still Hydra; if nine snakes and snakes can't do it, then please pay attention------I am in addition to humans!"

His voice echoed in the conference room, everyone could hear it clearly, and as he raised his hand to swore, Baby had to raise his arm.

Perhaps all the people who are flowing with the blood of the McTagoth family have natural enemies with mutants, such as Mora, Christine, and now Major Jeremy is the same.

From New Jersey to New York, and during the time he was wandering on the sea, Eric lost all his appetite for his new supervisor.

Mr. Eric, what is your relationship with Miss Carter; what do you have to do with your fellow countrymen back to Europe; do you like Chopin or Beethoven--all questions keep coming to him through Major Jeremy's mouth, and the Major's hand always holds a pencil and a notebook, and paints it according to his answers, as if this can determine Eric's inner thoughts.

"What am I thinking?" Eric said to himself in his heart. "I'm wondering how to tie you to a torpedo and launch it, dear Mr. Major."

Looking at this anti-Germanist and Gestapo in the New World, the mutant leader who set the wrong background once again silently swore in his heart. (To be continued)
