After hearing this, Storm explained, "There was an earthquake just now for some reason, which damaged the dam and caused several cracks in the dam wall. Shadow said he would go and plug these cracks so that we can evacuate safely."
Laser Eyes, somewhat dejected, asked, "Then what should we do? Should we give up on the professor?"
Storm looked at Kurt and said, "Kurt, take me inside."
Kurt hesitated for a moment and said, "I can only teleport to places I can see. If I teleport now, I might get stuck in the wall and suffocate to death."
After hearing this, Storm said encouragingly, "Don't worry, I believe in you."
Storm's words deeply moved Kurt, who secretly resolved to protect her even at the cost of his own life. So, his expression turned serious, and he said, "Alright, I'll give it a try!"
After Storm saw this, she walked over and gently hugged Kurt. Kurt was obviously a little nervous, so he started chanting scriptures loudly, and then he disappeared in a cloud of gray mist.
When Kurt opened his eyes again, he found himself safely inside a room. He laughed and said, "Haha, we're in safely." Just as he was about to walk over, Storm stopped him.
Storm said sternly, "Don't go over there!"
Kurt was puzzled. Standing before him was an innocent-looking little girl, and he clearly didn't consider her a dangerous person. He asked, somewhat confused, "What are you afraid of? She's just a little girl!"
Storm shook her head and said, "There are no little girls here! Kurt, we're standing inside an illusion now, looks like we have no choice but to use that move. Kurt, it's going to get very cold here soon, hang in there!"
After hearing this, Kurt said, "Don't worry, I'm right behind you, I'll persevere!"
Storm nodded in agreement and used her power to create a freezing storm. Jason's ability was to create illusions, but he had no other offensive capabilities. Therefore, Jason's illusions were destroyed in less than a few dozen seconds by Storm's icy storm.

=================================
Everyone was stunned by Adam's answer. Then Professor X suddenly spoke up, saying, "I think I know why. Mr. Shadow seems to be innately immune to powers like psychic abilities. I just tried to sense him, and I couldn't."
Confused by these people, Adam asked, "What on earth happened?"
Phoenix explained, "When the professor uses the brainwave enhancement machine to lock onto a group of people, those people will experience excruciating pain due to the professor's immense mental power."
Adam was immediately shocked upon hearing this and said, "What? How could that be? Does that mean that all of humanity in the world was suffering from headaches due to the erosion of mental energy just now?"
Storm said helplessly, "That's right, that's why the professor wanted to go to Washington to explain this matter."
Adam responded coldly, "Damn it, Magneto! Where's the brainwave enhancement machine?"
After hearing this, Logan asked, "That house collapsed. What are you planning to do now?"
Adam said, "You all go first. I'll go and completely destroy that machine! We can't let anyone get their hands on it." Then he left.
After Storm saw this, she said, "Is it really necessary to be so angry?" After saying that, she noticed that Professor X was pale and trembling all over.
Cyclops asked, "What happened?"
Professor X said with a grave expression, "We overlooked one thing! Ordinary people who are affected by my mind will experience splitting headaches, so what about people who are traveling by plane or car during this period? What will happen to them? Alas, Eric went too far this time!"
Storm opened her mouth after hearing this, and said, "This..." but found herself unable to continue.
Professor X sighed and said, "Well, never mind, let's go to Washington and explain this to the President first."
Meanwhile, Adam arrived at the room where the brainwave enhancement machine was located, found Jason already dead, sighed softly, and then used the heat ray to burn the room and Jason's body to ashes.
After everything was burned, Adam asked, "Athena, go check the news and then tally up how many people were hurt in this incident today."
Athena knew Adam was angry and in a bad mood, so she said, "Yes, Master! I'll go and take the count right away!"
Soon, the statistics came out, and Athena said hesitantly, "Master, there have been hundreds of thousands of car accidents and thousands of plane crashes worldwide, resulting in more than a million deaths and tens of millions of injuries! The situation is extremely serious."
Although Adam was somewhat prepared, the news still ignited a fire in his chest. He smashed the wall beside him to pieces, uttering each word with venom: "Magneto! You've done well! You've successfully provoked my wrath! Athena!!! Find Magneto's whereabouts immediately! I will not let this guy get away with this!"
Athena replied seriously, "Understood, Master. I will begin the search immediately. Once I find Magneto, I will notify you as soon as possible."
Adam nodded and said, "Okay, then we need to hurry! By the way, have the X-Men left yet?"
After hearing this, Athena said, "They are waiting for you!"
After hearing this, Adam sighed and said, "Alright, let's go. Oh, and we should report the situation of the dam to the city government. The ice wall won't hold for long."
After hearing this, Athena said, "Yes, Master. I have already hacked into their system and sent them the information about this place."
Adam nodded without saying anything, and as he left the base, he ran into Logan, who was waiting for him at the entrance.
Upon seeing Adam, Logan asked, "Adam, are you alright? You look terrible."
Adam sighed and said, "Logan, do you know how many people just died? Over a million! Just because of Magneto's selfishness, over a million innocent people died! Damn it! If you've got the guts, why don't you just storm the White House?!"
Logan, who had intended to comfort Adam, opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
After looking at it, Adam said, "Well, the dead are gone, let's go back now."
Logan nodded, then went back to the plane with Adam.
The plane was silent. Everyone saw Adam's cold face, so they all sat quietly in their seats, even the mutant children, who seemed to sense the heavy atmosphere.
Professor X looked at Adam and asked, "I heard your computer administrator can contact you at any time. Does it know about the disaster that just happened?"
Adam looked at the old man with a face full of self-reproach, sighed softly, and said, "Alas, the number of people affected by this disaster is too large. More than ten million people have suffered minor or serious injuries, and more than one million people have died from various disasters."
Everyone was stunned by the news. They never expected that so many people would be injured or killed in just over ten minutes. Professor X closed his eyes with a pained expression, seemingly lost in thought.
The flight was silent as the plane sped through the sky and soon arrived over the United States.
Adam stood up and said, "Alright, everyone, I have some things to do. See you later! Logan, come visit me in New York sometime."
Storm, who was piloting the plane, was taken aback by Adam's words and asked, "Are you going to stay here?"
Logan added, "Alright, I know you're upset, and we're upset too, but we can't let you leave in a place like this!"
Adam forced a smile and said, "Alright, don't worry, I just want to clear my head, I'll be fine! Of course, if you don't open it, I'll open it myself."
Professor X, upon hearing this, said, "Open the door, Ororo!"
Storm had no choice but to open the rear door. Adam waved to everyone and then jumped out of the plane.
He wasn't doing this to show off or to die; he just felt uncomfortable on the plane. Ever since he heard the death toll, he had been blaming himself, thinking that if he hadn't insisted on having Magneto join, none of this would have happened.
Throughout the journey, he felt increasingly depressed. Seeing the plane approaching Washington, he didn't want to waste time talking to politicians, so he decided to jump out. He wouldn't get hurt, which is why he made this request. Professor X, though unable to sense Adam's thoughts, knew from experience that Adam was in a bad mood and that if the door wasn't opened, an argument would definitely break out. Therefore, he had Storm open the door and let him out.
Since Adam made such a request, everything will surely be alright, because Professor X knows that Adam is not the kind of person who would commit suicide.
After jumping off the plane, Adam closed his eyes and quietly felt the wind flowing past his ears. The afternoon sun shone on Adam's strong body, and his restless heart suddenly calmed down. He fell asleep in the air. But strangely enough, after Adam fell asleep in the air, he did not continue to fall, but hovered quietly in the air.
About an hour later, Adam woke up from his dream and found himself still falling. Somewhat puzzled, he asked, "Athena, what just happened? Why am I still falling?"
After hearing this, Athena said, "I don't know either, but Master, you slept in the air for an hour just now. I called you many times but you didn't wake up."
Adam was shocked and said, "What? I actually slept in the air for an hour? I only closed my eyes for a moment, how is that possible?"
Athena continued, "I don't know either. What's even stranger is that Master was hovering in the air the whole time."
After hearing this, Adam asked in confusion, "What exactly happened?"
After hearing this, Athena said, "Perhaps it's related to the sunlight; Master's strength has recovered."

PS: This is the second update, please add to your favorites and recommend! =================================================================
Adam listened to Athena's words and nodded, finding them to be true. He also sensed that his strength had been restored. He closed his eyes and carefully sensed his body, discovering that his various abilities had increased considerably.
Adam opened his eyes and smiled, saying, "All my abilities have become stronger. It seems my abilities are indeed related to the sun!"
After hearing this, Athena smiled and said, "Congratulations, Master, you have found a way to improve your strength."
Adam laughed after hearing this, "That's right, it's indeed a good method, but unfortunately, excessive sunlight seems to put me into a deep sleep. It seems that what you said is true."
Athena laughed after hearing this, "Hehe, I came to this conclusion through calculations, I'm not just trying to scare you."
Adam, watching the ground getting closer and closer, said, "Alright, Athena, keep an eye on our current altitude, and then electrify the cloak!"
Athena smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master, I've been calculating the most suitable distance!"
Adam jumped off the plane because he felt suffocated. It wasn't that he wanted to test the power of gravity with his own body strength, but because he had made a slight improvement to his cloak. As long as it was powered on, the molecular structure inside the cloak would rearrange, and this cloak, which was usually only good for looking cool, would turn into a glider.
Adam drew inspiration for this idea from a flashback to Batman's cape. He had already modified the suit extensively to handle various unforeseen events. Furthermore, Adam created a silver powder based on the mask Howard gave him, capable of interfering with radar or other surveillance equipment, and then incorporated it into his suit, so he had no fear of being discovered.
A few minutes later, Athena said, "Master, we have reached the optimal altitude! Please get ready, I am about to deploy my glider." After saying that, she activated the battery located at the waist of her battle robe, powering up her cape.
Upon hearing this, Adam opened his arms, grabbed the handles of the glider converted from his cape, and instead of falling, began to glide forward. He landed lightly on an abandoned factory, asked Athena for directions, and headed towards New York.
Adam had just arrived in Manhattan, New York, when he received a call from Howard Stark.
Adam ran home while talking to Howard on the phone.
"Adam, where are you?"
Adam said, "I'm on my way home now, just got back from Canada."
Howard said, "Oh, I called to ask if you know why what happened just now?"
Adam paused for a moment, then said, "Dad, where are you? I'll tell you in detail when I get there."
After hearing this, Howard said, "Okay, I'll wait for you at the company!"
Adam nodded and said, "Okay, Dad, I'm coming right now." He then walked into a shopping mall, changed the appearance of his battle robe into a casual suit, and hailed a taxi to Stark Tower.
Because he had something on his mind, Adam hurriedly entered Stark Tower, quickly returned the greeting to the person who had bowed to him, and then took the elevator to Howard Stark's office.
When Adam went in, Howard Stark was watching television, which was broadcasting a statement from the US president about the major disaster that had occurred that day. Perhaps because Professor X and others had met with the president, the president pointed all the blame at William Stryker for the incident and announced that he was giving up his chance to run for president again next year.
Click. Howard turned off the TV, turned to Adam, and asked, "You're here. Have a seat."
Adam looked at Howard and asked, "Father, are you alright? Are Mother and Tony okay?"
Howard smiled and said, "Yeah, they're fine. When I heard about it, I was worried about you. I'm relieved to see you're alright."
Adam's eyes reddened upon hearing this. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and then said, "Thank you, Dad. I'm fine. This matter..." Adam recounted the entire incident to Howard Stark in a heavy voice.
After hearing this, Howard walked over and patted Adam on the shoulder, saying, "You made the right choice in this matter, son."
Adam shook his head and said in a low voice, "But if I hadn't called S.H.I.E.L.D., Magneto wouldn't have had the opportunity to change the brainwave enhancement machine, and so many people wouldn't have died!"
Howard comforted him, "Adam! Listen, son, this wasn't your fault, and you didn't want it to happen. Okay, don't dwell on the past. Learn from today's lesson, and you'll do better next time!"
