Marvel: Starting with mastering the Dark Book

The flow of time around them slowed down instantly.

Charles stared wide-eyed at his surroundings. He could sense the change in the flow of time because his telepathy revealed that Mystique, Eric, and the others seemed to have frozen in their thoughts.

This surprised Charles greatly.

"You manipulated time?"

"Hmm!" Jiang Yu casually took out a can of beer, pulled the tab, and handed it to Charles.

"Iced!"

Seeing that Jiang Yu could conjure things up so easily as if by magic, Charles smiled and took the beer.

It wasn't that he approved of Jiang Yu, but rather that he knew resistance was futile.

This guy is terrifying.

He was even more terrifying than any mutant he could imagine.

Manipulating time?

Not only can it manipulate time, but it can also travel through space at will, and it can change everything around it with a snap of its fingers.

If someone like that wanted to kill him, or take action against his group, it wouldn't seem too difficult.

"What's your name, and what brings you here?"

Jiang Yu took out another can of beer and started drinking.

At this moment, Charles felt something was strange. The beer tasted really good, but he felt something in his stomach, yet it was as if he hadn't drunk anything!

Looking at Jiang Yu with that questioning gaze, Jiang Yu smiled and said, "This is also one of my abilities—the ability to manipulate reality. However, sometimes you can also understand it as something that truly exists, yet is not entirely real!"

In fact, with Jiang Yu's level three Reality Power, he was fully capable of creating real objects, but to put Professor X's mind at ease...

Jiang Yu couldn't possibly reveal all his cards right from the start!

Looking at the beer in my hand, I thought, "So this was just a magic trick?"

"Sometimes I can't, and sometimes I can create real objects, but it depends on luck. I haven't mastered the more profound techniques yet!"

"My name is Jiang Yu, and I guess I'm a mutant like you guys!"

Jiang Yu?

"So, what brings you here?" Charles continued, asking the Chinese man's name.

"I sensed some strange power here, so I came to investigate. I didn't expect to encounter someone fighting over their kind, and it looks like you're in trouble!"

Jiang Yu casually tossed the beer aside, and Charles seemed to want to stop Jiang Yu from littering.

But Jiang Yu proactively said, "This bottle of beer will completely disappear in about an hour and won't pollute the environment!"

"Seriously, I want to fight a really tough mutant. That guy I sensed earlier has disappeared. You know him, right? If you want to deal with him, I can help!"

Just for this purpose...

However, other seemingly legitimate reasons made Charles feel that they were not quite true.

This reason seems to fit the attitude of this seemingly cynical guy in front of me.

They came here on their own initiative simply to have a fight.

"You want to join us?"

“That’s right!” Jiang Yu nodded without hesitation.

"Before agreeing to let you join us, could you... set things back to normal? I need to discuss this with my friends!"

"Of course!"

Jiang Yu smiled, and the moment his smile appeared, the flow of time returned to normal.

Eric frowned. "For a moment just now, I felt something was off!"

"Eric, come with me!"

Before Eric could ask any more questions, Charles pulled Eric aside and walked away.

Mystique, seeing this, walked right up to her.

"Hello, my name is Raven, what's your name?"

"Jiang Yu!" Jiang Yu looked at Mystique, who remained in human form, and asked, "Can you transform into anyone?"

Mystique was taken aback. "You know my abilities?"

"I can roughly sense that your abilities are simply amazing. Anyone who becomes your boyfriend will be incredibly happy!"

amount……

Mystique smiled. "Would you like to see what I really look like?"

"Of course!"

Jiang Yu nodded, and the next second Mystique reverted to her original form.

The blue color is similar to Avatar. Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "It's so beautiful!"

"Beautiful? Do you think I look good like this?"

“Of course!” Jiang Yu nodded seriously. “I really like blue.”

That's exactly what I want: Avatar!

Looking into Jiang Yu's eyes, Mystique didn't think he was lying; on the contrary, he seemed very sincere, though his sincerity carried a hint of naked possessiveness.

But Mystique found this acceptable.

　5.3 After all, attracting such a handsome man isn't necessarily a bad thing.

"He's dangerous." Hank stepped forward, trying to stop Mystique from getting too close to Jiang Yu.

Mystique frowned. "I think we should be more friendly."

"Hey! That ability of yours that suddenly appeared just now, is it that you can teleport?" Sean (the Siren) didn't care who Jiang Yu was, and was very interested in Jiang Yu's ability.

Jiang Yu smiled. "I'd say that's fair! But I can not only teleport myself, I can also make you teleport. Want to try?"

"Really? That's great! Quick, let me try it! I've never done this before..."

The next second, a wormhole swallowed Sean whole, and when he reappeared, he was inside the house.

Sean was very surprised, and Alex was also taken aback.

"Wow! It really is teleportation!"

Chapter 101 The School of Mutants in the Future

"Eric, what do you think about having him help us deal with the Black Emperor?"

Charles asked Eric questions from the side.

Eric frowned. "It seems something happened just a moment ago!"

“Yes! That guy!” Charles glanced in Jiang Yu’s direction and just happened to see Jiang Yu teleport Sean.

"He...stopped time...!"

Upon hearing this, Eric was stunned. "Are you serious?"

He turned around but didn't see Sean teleported; he was just curious about what these guys were cheering for.

“Of course!” Charles said with a very serious look. “While you were all immobilized, I had a brief chat with him!”

"His only goal is to find a powerful mutant to fight!"

Eric paused for a moment. "You believe that reason?"

“I believe you!” Charles, hands in his pockets, smiled somewhat helplessly. “If he said it was for all of humanity, I would think it was a lie!”

Recalling Jiang Yu's actions from the moment he appeared until afterward.

He certainly doesn't seem like the kind of savior hero; rather, he's more like a freakish figure, neither good nor bad, named Mysterio.

But such people are not entirely unusable.

If the opponent can indeed stop time, then using it to deal with the Black Emperor would obviously be a very good tactic.

Raising his beer, Charles looked at Eric and said, "This guy has a lot of special abilities: manipulating time, manipulating space, and even manipulating reality!"

"This is something he created on a whim, want a bite?"

Eric paused for a moment, knowing Charles wouldn't do something so pointless. He took the beer and took a sip.

The next second, Eric instantly understood what Charles meant.

Is this thing real or fake?

Charles smiled and looked at Jiang Yu. "In his words, sometimes he can make the real thing, but sometimes he can only make fakes like this, which will disappear without a trace in an hour."

“He’s a mutant unlike any other!” Eric concluded.

But Charles shook his head. "No... I think he might be more than just a mutant!"

or!

He is not a mutant at all.

Although Charles couldn't read Jiang Yu's mind, he had a vague feeling about it.

This guy's power doesn't come from mutant genes at all.

Eric tried to control the beer in his hand using his abilities, and surprisingly, he could. "In any case, having him join us seems to be better for us!"

For Eric, a guy who can create a large number of items at any time is simply the perfect partner!

Charles, standing to the side, looked at Eric and said, "If you want to use him, I advise you not to!"

"I know! Manipulating time... that guy might have other abilities too..."

Do you have abilities similar to Alex's?

Sean was questioning Jiang Yu when Jiang Yu suddenly shot out a purple laser beam from his hand, instantly destroying the bronze statue that was already only half intact.

The energy of the Seed of Power.

Jiang Yu nodded. "Of course, no problem, but the colors are different!"

Alex felt that Jiang Yu had similar abilities to himself, as if he had found a kindred spirit.

"I find you more and more pleasing to the eye."

"Because I'm more handsome than you?" Jiang Yu retorted to Alex, who was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter.

"You're so narcissistic!"

It's not that Jiang Yu is narcissistic; it's just that this helps to bring them closer.

Making some harmless jokes is fine.

"Alright!" Jiang Yu heard footsteps and turned to look at Charles and Eric approaching him. "I'm about to face my trial."

Charles almost choked on his words upon hearing this. He looked at Jiang Yu and said, "Welcome to join us, but I have some requirements."

"I don't steal, I don't rob, I don't kill. Don't worry, I still have basic moral standards. I only care about whether I can fight the Black Emperor."

Charles was taken aback when he heard this. He hadn't expected Jiang Yu to say it so readily, which saved him a lot of trouble.

next day!

Inside the mutant school, or rather, inside the castle before it became a mutant school.

Jiang Yu got up and looked at Mystique standing by the bed. Don't get me wrong, Jiang Yu was alone last night.

Hey! Good morning!

Jiang Yu took the initiative to greet him.

Mystique also looked closely at Jiang Yu's bare upper body. "You have a great body! But you should get up."

"Oh! Of course! Of course, no problem! But aren't you planning to excuse yourself?"

Jiang Yu asked Mystique with a smile.

But Mystique maintained her smile, saying, "Is there something you're ashamed of?"
