Jean Grey didn't sense Storm's change because she was in a very subtle state of mind. Receiving blessings from her elders and friends made her not think too much about it, and she wouldn't use her mutant abilities on her own people, so she simply took Storm's blessing as a blessing.

Just then, Logan, who had been under everyone's watchful eye, suddenly received a message from Athena. Taking this opportunity, he walked over and said, "Athena is all ready and waiting for us. Perhaps we can set off now? Because Adam only has 60 hours left. If he exceeds that, Adam's main personality will disappear forever."

He felt bored staying there any longer, because almost everyone was looking at him with ambiguous eyes, which made the man feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable all over. Now that he had an excuse to leave, he quickly grabbed it.

Professor X replied, "Yes, you can go, but be careful. Even though Jean has become an Omega-level mutant, don't let your guard down. After all, the place you're going to is no ordinary place."

Jean Grey nodded and said, "I know, Professor. Just wait for good news. Adam helped us so much before, and this time we'll help him get through this difficult time too."

After speaking, Jean Grey and Logan went to an open space not far away. With a loud boom, golden flames burst into Jean Grey's body. Finally, a phoenix-shaped energy shield formed around Jean Grey, and Jean Grey grabbed Logan's arm and soared into the sky, disappearing from everyone's sight almost instantly.

At the Dawn Tower, Athena, upon receiving Logan's message, immediately broke into her most charming smile. Turning to Tony, who was examining the launch pad, she said, "Hehe, Jean Grey has fully awakened! Master is saved!"

Tony was overjoyed to hear this and said, "Thank goodness, when will they arrive?"

“They’re here. Look, that phoenix-shaped energy is Jean Grey and Logan,” Athena said to Tony, pointing into the distance.

Tony stood up and saw a phoenix-shaped energy ball appear on the rooftop of the Dawn Building as if teleported. A woman with wine-red hair and a stunning figure, along with Wolverine Logan, were already standing in front of him.

"Tony? I didn't expect you to be here too." Logan said with some surprise. As Adam's friend, he knew that Adam and Tony had some issues.

"He's my older brother, if I don't come, who will? But thank you for your help, Ms. Jean Grey. If Xavier's School ever has any difficulties in the future, you can come to me. I still have some influence in this country."

Athena, however, was extremely anxious and agitated. She said to Jean Grey and the others, "Could you please talk about these nonsense later? I'm sorry. I lost my composure, but you should know that I haven't seen my master for almost two years. I believe Ms. Jean Grey knows what that feels like."

“I understand. No need to apologize to Athena, so what should we do now?” Jean Grey asked with a smile.

"Because of the Earth itself, although you already have Omega-level strength, you can't fully unleash it. You should have already realized that, right?"

“That’s right, I already sensed it on the way here. I couldn’t unleash my full strength, only about 20% of it,” Jean Grey said without hiding anything.

"So we need to leave Earth now, and then let you unleash your full power to enter the Sun Star and find Christine. She is a descendant of two sun gods from different pantheons, so she should fall into a deep sleep inside the Sun. She will only awaken when she is far away from the Sun. We'll talk about the rest after Christine recovers," Athena explained quickly.

“I understand. So how do we leave Earth? With this device?” Logan asked.

“My brother built a space station in geosynchronous orbit called Watchtower. We can use this launch pad to teleport to it,” Tony explained as he activated the launch pad.

“A watchtower? I remember that. Adam mentioned it before, saying it was the Justice League’s base. I didn’t expect him to actually build it.” Logan exclaimed, “I have to say, you two are both geniuses.”

Athena interrupted their conversation, saying, "We're about to set off. Don't worry, this has been tested several times, personally by Tony, and there are no problems. Please everyone stand inside the red circle; we're about to depart. I'll be going with you this time. As for the equipment here, don't worry; there's a team of robots guarding it, so nothing unexpected will happen."

Logan and Jean Grey had come to help them, so they didn't say anything and followed Tony into the red circle on the launch pad. Athena controlled the launch pad, set the program, and then followed them into the launch pad. Less than ten seconds later, a beam of light appeared, and everyone disappeared.

The next second, Tony and his group appeared in an empty room in the space station's watchtower. Apart from Tony sitting on the ground retching, the others showed no abnormalities due to their superhuman physical condition.

"Are you alright?" Logan looked around in shock, then noticed Tony sitting on the floor retching and asked.

"It's nothing, just a little nauseous. My body isn't as strong as yours. Anyway, I didn't get a good look around before because of the testing. Maybe we can find some champagne here. You know my brother loves it." Tony smiled and invited Logan.

“Uh…” Logan was a little confused as to why Adam’s brother was like this. He shook his head and said, “If I remember correctly, this place is not fully completed yet, so let’s stay here. We still need to go and rescue Christine.”

"Okay, I'll listen to you." After saying that, he walked to the window and looked at the beautiful Earth, murmuring, "Is this the Earth that gave birth to us? It's so beautiful. No wonder my brother and the Fantastic Four risked their lives to protect this planet."

At this moment, Athena took out several suitcases from a cabinet and said, "Here, everyone, put these on. Because the space station is not fully completed yet, there is no landing module. Opening the main hatch may cause some turbulence and oxygen deprivation. For your safety, please put on these. As for Ms. Jean Grey, you will need to switch to your spacesuit later. Adapt to the outside environment. Once you are fully acclimatized, we can depart. I hope our predictions are correct."

"Are we just going to change clothes here? Oh, I didn't know there was such a good thing." Tony said with a grin, seemingly very happy because he had found a way to save Adam.

Logan hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then looked at Athena, wanting to hear her explanation first.

Athena said calmly, "You'll see when you open it. This is different from your usual spacesuits; it's a liquid spacesuit. In a moment, take off your coat and press the button on the suitcase. The spacesuit will automatically attach to your body, so someone can shut up now."

Upon hearing Athena's explanation, everyone sprang into action. Sure enough, after pressing the button on the suitcase, the suitcase suddenly turned into liquid, spreading upwards from the arm holding the suitcase, quickly forming a spacesuit-like bodysuit, yet without causing any discomfort to the person inside, which everyone found quite amazing.

Athena then instructed Tony and Logan to hold on tight while she led Jean Grey to a hatch on the space station. She opened the hatch, and Jean Grey, secured by a safety tether, floated out of the space station, beginning to calmly adapt to the vacuum of space. To prevent any accidents to Jean Grey, the hatch had to remain open, as the space station was not yet fully completed and lacked the necessary equipment. It could only be used rudimentarily, thus giving Logan and Tony a glimpse of the dangers of this mysterious universe. Fortunately, in less than ten minutes, Jean Grey had fully adapted to the environment, and suddenly golden flames appeared on her body, defying logic as they burned ever brighter in the vacuum of space. Eventually, even her spacesuit and safety tether were consumed by the flames.

Athena could tell at a glance that Jean Grey had fully adapted to the space environment, and all her suppressed power was beginning to recover. In just a few minutes, she would be fully restored to her peak strength, and that would be the moment to go find Christine. So Athena closed the hatch, activated the other equipment in the space station, restored the space station's environment, and allowed Logan and Tony, who had flown to the ceiling, to descend.

"Did it work?" Logan asked, looking at the golden flames outside.

"It should be. Look, the flames are starting to shrink. Lady Jean Grey is alright!" Tony said happily, pointing to Jean Grey outside.

Logan went over and saw that Jean Grey had returned to her original form after emerging from her cocoon. The only difference was that Jean Grey's eyes were now completely golden. Jean Grey seemed to sense everyone's gaze and used her telepathy to tell them she was leaving, assuring Athena, Tony, and Logan not to worry, before transforming into a golden light and disappearing instantly.

"So fast!" Tony murmured, watching Jean Grey disappear in an instant.

Athena smiled easily and said, "Just now, Ms. Jean Grey's speed was already very close to the speed of light. In a while, it should exceed the speed of light. According to this calculation, Ms. Jean Grey will arrive at the Sun Star in about five or six minutes. The only problem is that it will take some time to find Christine."

"Is she really okay?" Logan only started to worry at this point.

"Don't worry, the temperature of the golden flames on her body is about the same as the temperature of the sun's core, so there won't be any problems. You should know that. I only went to ask for help because I had some information that Black Phoenix left for her master before she left, and I was 90% sure of the outcome," Athena explained.

"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't trust you, but I'm still worried that something might happen," Luo said, looking outside.

“You don’t need to apologize, Mr. Logan. After all, you were worried about her safety. I’m the one who should apologize. I wouldn’t have bothered Ms. Jean Grey if I hadn’t really had no other choice,” Athena said.

"Alright, stop apologizing to each other. Now it's all up to fate. All we can do is sit here and wait for news!" Tony walked over and patted Logan on the shoulder.

Logan nodded after hearing this, but said nothing, continuing to stare at the silent universe outside the window, where his lover was in that faraway place.

And so, everyone stood quietly by the window, waiting for news. Time passed slowly, but those who stood by the window seemed unaware of the passage of time. No one spoke, and they quietly felt the silence of the universe.

Just then, nearly an hour after Jean Grey left, a bright light suddenly burst forth in the distant universe, causing great concern among everyone standing by the window. Fortunately, a magic circle suddenly appeared inside the space station, exciting Tony and Athena. What did the appearance of a magic circle here mean? It was obvious that Christine had returned and was fully awake.

"Sorry we're late." Sure enough, when they turned around, they heard a long-lost voice.

P.S.: This long chapter is for you all, and for all the readers who have supported me all this time. Thank you. Without your collections and support, I might not have been able to keep going.

This long chapter is also dedicated to myself. I hope I can continue to work hard, say goodbye to laziness, and keep updating.

Finally, starting tomorrow, our protagonist will be returning. I suddenly realized that I've written so much lately, but the protagonist hasn't had much to do with it. I feel a bit sorry for him, and the female lead too. Hehe, let's bring the female lead back first, and then the protagonist will be next.

Please continue to support me, thank you!

Chapter 251 Entering the Dream

"Sorry to keep you waiting." A long-lost voice came from the magic circle. When the light from the magic circle faded, everyone saw a person.

Her long, golden hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and she wore a warm smile on her delicate face. She was dressed in a moon-white dress in the style of ancient Greece, covered by a layer of golden metallic armor. The armor was decorated with mysterious patterns, and there was a sun-shaped pattern on the chest.

"Christine? It really is you! You're finally back!" Tony exclaimed with joy upon seeing Christine, knowing that his brother finally had a glimmer of hope.

“Welcome back, Christine. This trip has been quite long.” Athena was also delighted, but she managed to restrain herself. She glanced at Jean Grey standing behind Christine and said sincerely, “Thank you for your help, Ms. Jean. Otherwise, we really wouldn’t have been able to do anything. I’m sorry to have put you at risk.”

Jean Grey smiled and said, "You're welcome. Adam has helped us a lot before. We're friends, and aren't Xavier's School and the Justice League allies? Helping each other is only right."

"Anyway, I have to thank you, Jean. Otherwise, I might have remained asleep there for a long time." Christine gratefully grasped Jean Grey's hand and said, "After we awaken Adam, we should have a good get-together. I never expected that you and Logan would end up together."

This time, Qin didn't continue to be modest. She smiled slightly and said, "That's great. Luo and Adam are good brothers, so I think we can become good sisters too."

Christine smiled and nodded, then asked Athena, "Athena, although I've heard a little from the lyre, I still don't know the details. How is Adam doing?"

Athena replied, "Master has awakened, but it seems that an evil alternate personality has emerged for some reason and has even overcome the primary personality, so I've imprisoned it. However, this is not a long-term solution. We must awaken Master's primary personality as soon as possible, or we will lose him forever." She then briefly recounted the events of the past year.

Christine frowned. "So much has happened, damn Tonati! In that case, let's get going."

Athena nodded and said, "Okay, oh. What's going on?"

She walked to the computer, frowned at the prominent error message, and began to type in some commands. Due to the evolution of her life signs, although she now possessed a body composed of pure energy, she had also lost some abilities. Moreover, because she was in outer space, most of her abilities were limited, and she had to rely on the mainframe of the watchtower to check some things.

"What happened?" Tony asked as he walked over.

"The Dawn Tower is under attack, damn it. At this time," Athena said.

"What? Has the launch pad been destroyed?" Tony asked, frowning.

“No, the launch pad has not been destroyed,” Athena shook her head and said, “The Dawn Building has its own defense system, but that’s where the problem lies. Because the defense system is in the form of an energy shield, we have lost contact with the launch pad.”

Logan, after hearing this, said, "It seems that there are spies from other forces in Dawn Tower or X Academy, otherwise they wouldn't have chosen today to make their move."

Tony gritted his teeth and said, "It's also possible that I'm being watched, damn it. I'll make those guys regret this when I get back."

"Don't worry, my power has been restored, and thanks to the continuous absorption of the sun's power, I've accumulated a considerable amount of solar divine power. Teleporting from here to Earth is a minor issue," Christine said. "Besides, since they've welcomed us so warmly, shouldn't we show some courtesy as hosts?"

"Are you sure?" Athena asked. "The plan to awaken the master requires your divine power, not ordinary magical power. If too much divine power is consumed because of this teleportation, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Don't worry, although I've been sleeping all year, as a god, sleeping can increase divine power, especially since I'm sleeping directly on the Sun Star. Don't forget, I'm a descendant of the Sun God!" Christine laughed.

“Then let’s get going.” Logan said with a clang, extending six metal claws. “I’m almost rusty, I need to stretch my legs.”

Jean Grey smiled and said, "Although the round trip consumed a lot of energy, it was no problem at all to deal with those small fry below."

“Alright, let’s go then. I’ve been away for so long, I’m starting to miss the smell of Earth air.” Christine smiled, and with a wave of her hand, a two-meter-diameter magic circle appeared on the ground. “Tony, what are you standing there for? Let’s go. Or are you going to stay here and admire the scenery?”

Tony, who had felt a deep sense of powerlessness because of everyone's performance, smiled lightly when he heard Christine's words and said, "There are no beautiful women or fine wine here, so I don't want to stay here."

Tony Stark walked into the magic circle as he spoke, but only he knew how much he craved power at that moment. "I must live with power that belongs to me!" This little seed quietly fell into the heart of the prodigal son, but when it would truly sprout was anyone's guess.

The teleportation array was incredibly fast. In the instant everyone closed their eyes due to the intense light of the magic array, they had vanished from the space station. When they opened their eyes again, they were already on the roof of a building near the Dawn Tower. As for why they didn't go directly into the Dawn Tower, it was because the Dawn Tower was protected by an energy shield. Forcibly breaking through it could cause unpredictable dangers, so Christine didn't choose to do that. Instead, she chose the rooftop of an adjacent building as her landing point.

"Oh, are all these teleportation methods extremely uncomfortable?"

Tony, without a doubt, collapsed to the ground again due to nausea. Fortunately, he had gotten used to vomiting a few times, so this time he didn't vomit anything more, only dry heaving a few times before recovering. Clearly, his adaptability was quite strong.

"Haha, kid, you need to get some training." Logan laughed, then looked at the people below who were bombarding the energy shield with energy guns, and grinned, "Looks like Hydra scum, I'm off!" With that, he jumped off the roof.

"Being with you guys is really nerve-wracking. Just jumping off like that? Don't you have a fear of heights?" Tony muttered, then looked up to find himself completely alone on the rooftop, making him feel like a complete idiot. "If this were a cartoon, I'd probably have a few dots and a crow on my head. Heh."

Tony chuckled self-deprecatingly, then silently turned and ran towards the rooftop door. Along the way, he pondered how he could gain power. He was a proud man, and this feeling of being constantly ignored today was extremely painful for him.

"Superpowers? Hmph, I don't want those easy, accidental powers. And those potions my brother gave me? They don't really showcase my own abilities." Tony stood in the elevator, his mind racing with countless ideas. As the elevator announced its arrival at the ground floor, a sudden inspiration struck him. He slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "Seriously! I have unparalleled advantages, what am I even thinking? Hmph, I'll definitely create something that will leave everyone speechless! Haha, I'll show you my masterpiece!"

Knowing his advantage lay in his technical knowledge, Tony Stark regained his usual confidence, a habitual smirk playing on his lips as he slowly walked out of the building. The attack outside was over, which didn't surprise him. However, he was somewhat surprised and touched that Christine and Athena were waiting for him in front of the Time Tower. It seemed they had seen through some of his subtle inner thoughts earlier.

“It feels so good to have family,” Tony remarked, then smiled and walked up to Christine and Athena.

"Wow, that's impressive. You guys finished the fight the moment I stepped off the roof. Keep in mind, I took the elevator down."

Christine looked at Tony with some surprise and said, "You don't seem to be in a good mood?"

"Of course, my brother's about to wake up. How could I not be happy?" Tony shrugged with a smile and said, "Where are Logan and his girlfriend? Have they already gone back?"

Athena shook her head and said, "They went to chase after some mutants, saying they'd call them again when Adam wakes up."

Christine suddenly smiled and whispered, "If Adam saw you like this, he would be happy for you."

"What?" Tony, who was looking around, didn't hear Christine's words clearly. He asked, somewhat puzzled.

"It's nothing, let's go. Adam is still waiting for us upstairs." After saying that, he walked into the Dawn Building with Athena, while Tony shrugged and followed.

Christine, Athena, and the other two had arrived in front of Adam's bedroom. The golden energy above the entire room was vibrating incessantly, as if someone inside was attacking the protective shield.

"Is he inside?" Christine asked.

“Yes, he’s inside.” Christine said, opening the door to reveal the man who was relentlessly attacking the protective shield with various abilities.

Seeing the door open, he stopped what he was doing, then saw Christine. He paused slightly, then said, "Oh my, who's this again? Isn't this my lovely Christine? What? You've finally decided to come back to see me? Didn't you say you left Earth with that old man called Tonati?"

Christine frowned and said, "That Adam is really despicable."
