I was watching American comic book short videos, and at the beginning, Iron Man was breaking down.

Chapter 14 Should we break them out of prison first?

X-Men world.

Charles's eyes were practically wide open, staring intently at the video on the screen.

After fighting alongside that laser-eyed guy, he appeared on the big screen once again.

And this time, it's my older self who appears!

Based on the title and the dialogue in the video, it's quite obvious that the other old man standing next to him is Eric, right?

Is this what my future self and Eric will be like?

So that's how it is!

I have to say, suddenly knowing what I'll look like in old age feels a bit strange.

Of course, that wasn't the point; Charles only muttered a slight complaint to himself.

What he was really concerned about was whether he had actually fought with Eric his whole life.

The video clearly states that the collaboration between Wolverine and Eric to send Wolverine back in time was their first joint effort.

Indeed.

He parted ways with Eric after they stopped Black King Shaw together on the Cuban beach.

Over the years, they have been on a path of mutual antagonism, until he became a decadent old man, and Eric was imprisoned in the world's most secure prison for assassinating Melozong.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that even this so-called most secure prison in the world ultimately failed to contain Eric.

We let him escape, and we let him keep causing trouble.

And what about yourself?

Undoubtedly, and as always, he stopped Eric.

This state began with the handsome young man on the Cuban beach, continued through his youth, middle age, and finally, into his old age!

They fought each other their whole lives; that's not an exaggeration at all.

So, is this the end for me and Eric?

Charles was extremely heavy-hearted; he truly did not want to see this situation unfold.

Regardless, Eric was once Charles's closest comrade-in-arms and brother!

But upon further reflection, Charles was not surprised by this outcome.

Eric's experiences and personality determined that he was not a settled person.

Eric will do anything to cause trouble whenever he gets the chance!

I just don't know what happened in that distant future.

It actually forced him and Eric, who had been fighting each other their whole lives, to put aside their grudges and join forces again!

Since the video did not show this aspect, Charles naturally had no idea.

Even someone with a brain knows that it must be an extremely important matter.

It was so significant that even Charles and Eric working together couldn't solve it, which is why Wolverine needed to travel back in time!

"1973?"

Hank, standing to the side, immediately raised an eyebrow. "It's this year? Why would they send Wolverine into our time?"

Charles had the same question: what exactly happened in 1973?

Since their future selves and Eric decided to send Wolverine to 1973, it means that something must have happened in 1973 that is closely related to that distant future.

It could even be considered a decisive factor.

Although the video did not reveal the reason why Wolverine traveled to the past, there is only one reason for time travel: to change the future.

In other words, changing something in 1973 could change the distant future.

Change the crisis that even your future self and Eric couldn't solve together!

So, what exactly happened in 1973?

Charles and Hank exchanged a glance, but both saw a look of confusion in each other's eyes.

The brief communication did not yield any useful results.

"Charles, whatever Wolverine wants to change in our time, it will definitely be related to you and Eric."

However, Hank still made a very basic judgment.

If that weren't the case, why would Charles and the others in the future specifically emphasize having Wolverine assemble a young Professor X and Magneto?

"This is absurd."

But Charles couldn't help but laugh out loud, in a very self-deprecating way.

Now he's in such a decadent state, spending his days drinking and wasting his time, having long since lost all faith and beliefs.

To put it bluntly, he was a useless person.

No matter what their future selves and Eric want Wolverine to come looking for them for, they will definitely fail.

Charles is not the same Charles he used to be.

In terms of ability, Charles can no longer read minds, so he can't help at all.

From his perspective, Charles didn't care about these things at all.

Or rather, his only interest is watching the drama unfold.

Even if he could do something, he wouldn't have the inclination to do it.

Does my future self not know what my life will be like in 1973?

Why would Wolverine come looking for me at this time?

This is utterly absurd!

As for going to find Eric together, that's even more absurd.

You should know that Eric is currently being held in one of the world's most secure prisons!

How do I find it?

Should we break him out of prison first and rescue Eric?

That's absolutely outrageous.

So Charles really had no idea what his future self and Eric were thinking.

Traveling through time, such a huge feature, it feels like a complete waste.

……

The Boys world.

Queen Maeve stared at the large screen in front of her, her brows furrowing slightly.

This latest video showcases quite a few superpowered individuals, but as one of the Seven, she has never heard of them.

Even if there isn't a single one.

"Professor X?"

"Does it have the ability to read minds?"

Queen Maeve began to ponder deeply.

If I remember correctly, Vought International did indeed release a superhero with mind-reading abilities before.

I think his name was something like Maxmo, and he even starred in a movie with A-Train.

But that guy's codename is Hypnotist, not Professor X.

Moreover, the opponent's peak period seems to have been during his teenage years.

Now, it's been outdated for who knows how long.

He's been completely reduced to a third-rate superhero.

Maeve almost forgot.

Could it be that in the future, the company will repackage this guy as another superhero and make him a new star?

Maeve had no idea.

And this is the only superhero Maeve can figure out even a little bit about.

As for characters like Magneto or Wolverine, there's absolutely no clue about them.

Maeve could only guess based on their nicknames that Magneto's ability might be to control magnetic fields, while Wolverine's ability was probably a certain degree of animalization.

Maeve had never heard of a superhero with this ability.

However, neither Professor X, Magneto, nor Wolverine are Maeve's primary concerns.

What she was really interested in was the superhero who could take people back to the past.

Traveling through time! This is incredible!

Has any superhero actually mastered such incredible power?

This is absolutely astonishing.
