Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

Chapter 124 They Need an Explanation, Professor (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

One look and he trembled all over; another look and he wished he could shrink his head back and try to make himself invisible to Matthew.

That's how terrifying it is.

Victor is also a centenarian. He was active during World War II and has lived to this day.

During this time, he encountered many terrible people.

Magneto, whom he followed, is the first to be mentioned.

Putting aside Magneto's charisma, his sheer power is enough to prevent Victor from rebelling in the slightest.

However, the feeling Magneto gave him was far less intense than the feeling Matthew gave him.

Matthew is just a young and handsome boy on the outside.

But Victor the saber-toothed tiger saw the terror hidden beneath that exterior.

If Bucky and the other Astartes and Ravens felt like volcanoes ready to erupt at any moment, their lava could engulf him.

So Matthew is the sun.

It was incredibly dazzling and incredibly hot; anyone who got close to it would be burned to ashes.

They simply wouldn't survive.

The Victor of today is no longer unruly; he only wants to sing a line from a song about accidentally wandering into the heavens.

So even if it heals itself and the brain recovers.

Victor remained as obedient and well-behaved as a ragdoll cat.

The main point is that I've been so well-behaved, so you can't kill me, okay?

The atmosphere at the meeting between the two leaders was not tense.

Matthew initially made a deal with Professor X because of his increased appetite after his physique improved. He used William Stryker's mutant human experimentation facility at Alcalí Lake in Canada as leverage to obtain the nutritional formula for Hank's research on him.

It was this formula that solved Matthew's potential problems in this area.

This laid the foundation for his rapid growth later on.

So the relationship between the two sides is quite good.

"Looks like we're too late." Professor X was a smart man. He glanced at the scene, and after seeing Mystique Raven and Sabretooth Victor, he basically guessed what was going on.

He smiled helplessly.

Having obtained information about William Stryker from Matthew, he led the X-Men to breach the Alcali Dam human experimentation facility and rescue the mutants imprisoned and experimented upon.

However, they failed to capture William Stryker.

Professor X may be a moderate, but that doesn't mean he's an honest man who can be taken advantage of.

In a sense, he and Magneto are at opposite ends of the spectrum, one due to ideological differences, and the other due to different roles and responsibilities.

Magneto plays the bad cop while the rest of the world plays the good cop.

Both sides present themselves as adversaries to the outside world, preventing countries from completely targeting mutants.

Otherwise, if the two most powerful mutants in the world got together, the leaders of various countries would never be able to sleep at night.

Because of the opposition, war will not be triggered.

As long as they maintain a semblance of peace, they can still leave their compatriots a space to live.

William Stryker went too far. Professor X saw the tragic scenes of those who rescued their fellow mutants, and the horrifying experimental data.

Only then did he find out how many mutants had died in that base.

Therefore, he decisively launched a manhunt for William Stryker.

Magneto also learned of this news and, in a fit of rage, joined the hunt.

However, William Stryker also has a huge interest group behind him, and has been researching mutants for decades. He is very knowledgeable about the X-Men, Magneto's abilities, and characters.

Both sides were determined to hide, and surprisingly, neither could find them.

Magneto has recently obtained some clues: William Stryker is suspected of appearing in Puerto Rico, so he has come to search for him.

However, he then sensed a brief burst of extremely powerful energy, which led him to San Juan City.

Professor X and the X-Men were at the school when they learned of the news, so they called the X-Men to fly over in the Blackbird fighter jet that Beast Hank had built.

But before he even arrived, his mental powers detected Magneto unleashing his abilities in San Juan City.

At the same time, a large number of extremely terrifying auras appeared here.

Originally, I wanted to use my mental powers to remotely manipulate the participants or bystanders to see what was going on, but a very special and never-before-seen force interfered with my mental powers.

Upon seeing Matthew, Bucky, and other warriors from both chapters.

Professor X then understood the situation.

At the same time, he was utterly terrified.

Because Matthew, Bucky, and the other warriors from the two superhero bands are quite terrifying, Professor X also has the ability to detect the strength of life force, but unlike Magneto, he uses his mental powers.

Professor X had a guess based on Bucky and the others' attitude towards Matthew.

Therefore, their attitude became more moderate.

Even now, I'm worried about my old friend Magneto Eric.

"It is indeed a bit late."

Matthew wasn't being tactful; if this person had been there, the situation wouldn't have spiraled out of control to this extent.

"If possible, please show mercy to Eric, Mr. Matthew."

"Although he is extreme, he is not an incorrigible villain, and mutants need him."

Matthew speaks frankly, so Professor X follows suit, not hiding anything.

“He wants to torture and kill my soldiers. They need an explanation, Professor.” Matthew had known this all along since Professor X arrived.

Since no one under his command has died, there is still room for maneuver. Magneto can be killed or spared.

But the idea that he would simply let Magneto go is not a possibility.

This is a losing proposition.

Matthew never lets himself suffer a loss from beginning to end, and this matter is no exception.

He likes to study winning.

“I think he’ll be willing to offer compensation, and so will I, Mr. Matthew.” Professor X understood the subtext and breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems Eric is alright.

As for compensation, it's normal to have to pay the price for doing something wrong.

If you don't want Eric's life, everything is negotiable.

So Matthew and Professor X, the two leaders, began to discuss this issue, with Professor X mainly bargaining.

After all, some of the demands Matthew made were indeed a bit excessive.

Everything else was fine, but Matthew actually wanted to take some students from his school.

That won't do.

Who is Matthew? What has he been doing lately that he has managed to train or recruit a group of incredibly powerful warriors? What are his plans for the future?

Professor X knows nothing.

In unknown circumstances, Professor X might just casually dump a student on Matthew.

Even if we're going to throw it away, shouldn't we at least find out what's going on with Matthew first?

If Matthew's place is a good place to shelter these students, Professor X would be happy to do so. Why not find a good place for the students?

He dedicated his life to rescuing mutants and finding a safe haven for his fellow human beings.

The two leaders were having a lively conversation.

Wolverine, Logan, and the rest of the X-Men wore strange expressions, glancing left at the professor and right at Matthew. What had they heard?

Chapter 125 Wolverine's Pain Mask (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

They're actually discussing kidnapping students for Magneto's sake?

It gives off a strong sense of déjà vu, like a human trafficking transaction.

The X-Men looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

However, at this moment, Logan, the Wolverine with a cigar in his mouth and a cool and melancholic demeanor, suddenly realized that someone was watching him.

He looked over and met a pair of eyes filled with complicated emotions.

It's Victor the saber-toothed tiger.

Upon seeing the other person's appearance, Logan frowned, and some past memories flooded his mind.

These memories are fragmented and incomplete.

This made Logan put on the mask of pain.

Yes, Logan has lost many memories. He has forgotten his past, his origins, and his origins.

He is a man without a past.

He is also someone who is lost while searching for his memories.

Joining the X-Men was an accident. Logan only knows one thing: the person who caused him to lose his memory was William Stryker.

Unfortunately, this person has not been found to this day.

Unexpectedly, he encountered someone this time who stirred up some of his past memories.

It took Logan a while to recover. The memories weren't very clear, but they were unforgettable. There was a scene from a long time ago in a detached villa where two children were playing.

There is also an image of him holding a shotgun and aiming at an angry-looking stranger.

There is also a scene of another slightly older child pulling another child as they run away through the woods.

There are also images of him and his opponent charging through a hail of bullets on the battlefield.

These images were not a cohesive whole, so much so that Logan could not connect them completely.

"who are you?"

Logan couldn't hold back any longer. He strode forward toward Victor, but just as he got close, a burly Astartes warrior, over 1.9 meters tall, stood expressionless in front of him.

With his head slightly lowered and his cold gaze fixed on Logan, he said in a deep voice, "Without the leader's order, no prisoners are allowed to approach us. Step back."

"Get out of the way."

Because it was related to his past memories, Logan's tone was full of anger when he saw the Astartes warrior blocking his way. He even slightly opened his hands, and six sharp metal claws automatically extended from his palm bones.

These claws are so sharp that they can easily cut through anything he sees.

"Logan, what are you doing?"

Logan's sudden confrontation with Astartes drew the attention of the X-Men, who were originally focused on the conversation between Professor X and Matthew.

Upon seeing this, after a moment of surprise, Jean Grey (Phoenix) and Scott Lang immediately approached.

The latter reached out and placed his hand on Logan's shoulder, while the former stood in front of Logan to block him.

"Logan, calm down." Jean Grey was a beautiful woman with short, burgundy hair and a gentle demeanor due to her years as a teacher.

She was a little worried about her companion.

“Hey, you reckless guy, now’s not the time to be reckless.” Cyclops Scott and Logan have never gotten along, but he still cares about Logan to some extent, though he’s habitually rude to him.

Logan didn't have time to argue with Scott at this moment; his gaze swept past Jean Grey and fixed on the Astartes warriors.
