From his previous conversation with Magneto, Saber knew that something must have happened to Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youngsters. Even Professor Charles himself could not escape this terrible incident, but when he really saw Xavier's Mutants, he knew that the situation should be quite serious, and these people in front of him should have been controlled for a long time.
Saber could no longer see even the slightest emotional fluctuation from their eyes. Saber has been in this world for a long time, and he has seen a lot of this kind of supernatural power, including the most powerful Sorcerer Supreme, the Ancient One. He also talked and laughed with her. He knew a lot of secrets, but he had never heard of any ability that could brainwash a person with a normal mind and will with just a glance.
It doesn't exist, this is a process that takes time. Even Professor Charles, the strongest person with the power of the mind, can't do this, especially for people with a strong will. Even if they are controlled, there is still the possibility of resistance. Only after a long time will the final resistance of a person's will be smoothed out.
This time is likely to be measured in months.
Saber, whose whole body was wrapped in magic energy, smashed the storm shield in front of him with a claw and rushed into the storm controlled by Grey Jean and Saber. The sharp energy was like a spiraling blade under the control of Lady Stormsword. The moment Saber rushed into it, the energy blade rubbed crazily against his skin, but Sim's weak voice also sounded at this moment:
"Get out! I can't hold on any longer! "
Saber's face changed slightly. He took a few steps back, and the demonization on his arms began to lift. In less than 2 seconds, he returned to his normal form from a completely demonized state. Although the wounds on the surface of his body were healed, the irritating numbness inside his body struck again, and with the passage of time, the numbness effect seemed to be getting stronger and stronger. At the moment it recovered, Saber even felt suffocated.
His body shook for a moment, and he subconsciously summoned the war hammer to support his body. He coughed with difficulty, and the helmet on his face was lifted. He breathed heavily, and his face was extremely pale at this moment, and blood was gushing out of the corner of his mouth.
This scene was completely seen by Saber and Grey Jean in front of him. They were brainwashed and immediately turned defense into offense, manipulating wind blades and psychic power to attack, but Saber ignored them as if he did not see the threat. The next moment, a pair of hands with dark red tactical gloves stretched out from the ground, grabbed Oro and Grey Jean's legs, and pulled them down fiercely.
"Shua"
The two of them were instantly buried under the ground, leaving only their heads above the ground. A little girl wearing a full set of armor jumped out from the ground. She pulled out a katana from her waist and chopped down towards Grey Gin's head.
"Stop! Cough cough … Don't kill her. "
Saber's voice came from behind, and Catherine's sharp blade was less than an inch away from Grey Jean's head. She turned around and looked at Saber, who was coughing with difficulty. He was already having difficulty breathing, and he felt the world spinning around him. His body began to bend as his chest choked with sobs. He forced himself to take a step forward, but he staggered. The next moment, Emma and Clarice who ran out of the purple teleportation door supported him.
"I need her memories, help me over! Huu … Huu. "
Saber's breathing became a lot heavier, and Emma did not dare to delay, and hurriedly helped him to Grey Jean's side. Saber reached out and patted the little girl's shoulder.
"She will be yours … Don't waste time."
Catherine did not nod, nor did she say anything. Pixie's departure had hurt her, and Dorothy's death was a stab to her heart. Now, the little girl's heart was filled with the desire for revenge. After the orthodox Saber's education, she could not be magnanimous. How to put it, if there were no accidents, the few Xavier Mutants present who were involved in Dorothy's death were probably dead.
What? You said that they were controlled, and these things had nothing to do with their own wishes?
It seemed to make sense, but in this world, right and wrong were never judged by what you thought. Everyone judged by what you did. From this point of view, none of the people who were being controlled had clean hands. Most importantly, the people who were being controlled didn't have clean hands.
Do you think he's a reasonable person when facing Seiber?
"Get up!"
Catherine's voice was indifferent. She grabbed Grey Jean's shoulder with her left hand and lifted her up. The Mutant who turned out to be her mentor was lifted from the ground. The Fallen Angel Samia's Blackfire Greatsword was placed on her neck, and a few Fallen Orders were thrown on her body, forcing Grey Jean to be unable to resist.
Saber sat on a piece of debris, and he looked at Grey Jean in front of him. This was a woman who had very little presence in the Xavier Academy for Gifted Youngsters. She and Professor Saber were both proficient in the power of the mind, but Professor Saber's light was too bright, completely enveloping Grey Jean. And one thing that Saber was very concerned about was that five years ago, when he first met the people of the Xavier Academy for Gifted Youngsters, everyone's strength had improved, including the young man Laser who had just joined the X-Men.
But only Grey Jean did not!
Not at all. When one's strength reached Saber's level, one would be able to see the strangeness in some seemingly ordinary questions. The Mutant's strength either increased naturally with age, or relied on some kind of training method to exercise on their own. Although the progress would be slow, there was no change at all in five years, which was enough to show that Grey Jean was not normal.
"Ahem, look, my … Ahem, eyes!"
Saber reached out and lifted Grey Jean's head. The pair of eyes that had completely turned yellow looked so strange. In the absence of emotional fluctuations, it was very easy to enter a person's soul, especially now that Grey Jean was in a manipulated state. She almost had no spiritual defense at all, and Saber easily stepped into her soul.
What he saw was the scene of the Xavier Academy being invaded by a mysterious force in the night. The teachers of the academy led the students to resist the invaders, but after being pierced by a special liquid needle, they would fall into a strange sluggish state. The scene changed, and in Professor X's office, three mysterious people stood in front of the professor. A conspicuous needle had been pierced into the professor's arm, and above it was a bottle filled with yellow liquid.
Saber noticed that among the three people, one of them was wearing a special brooch on his chest. He looked like a high-ranking person. He was very old, and the wrinkles on his face and white hair could be seen.
He was saying something to the professor, but the professor's eyes were muddled.
This should be something that happened a few months ago. Saber exited the memory fragment. He wanted to see more, but soon, he felt a special gaze. It seemed that there was something else in Grey Jean's soul, something hidden in the darkness and spying on him.
There was no concept of time when reading a soul. Even if Saber would die in the next second in reality, when reading a soul with the Eyes of Repentance, the time would be stretched very long. So he raised his head and walked deeper into Grey Jean's soul. He was very curious. If there really was something in Grey Jean's soul, then had Professor X already discovered it?
If Professor X had discovered this, then why did he let this thing continue to exist?
To be honest, he hadn't had the feeling of deciphering a mystery for a long time. Saber could feel that this should be a really big secret.
However, Saber apparently forgot an old saying at this time: "Curiosity killed the cat."
"Ding Dong."
A soft sound rang in Saber's ears. His consciousness suddenly raised his head, but there was nothing above his head. However, Saber could feel that there was a mysterious will there. She was looking at him curiously, as if she was looking at a fun toy, or a cat looking at a mouse.
"What are you looking for? Little guy. "
The will said to him. Saber was stunned for a moment. He quickly realized that this was the secret in Grey Jean's heart. He coughed softly.
"Then, lady, who are you?"
"Lady? No, no, no. "
The voice let out a pleasant laugh. "Don't use the words of this kind of low-dimensional creature to describe me. If you really want to know me, you can call me … Phoenix."
"Uh, okay, Lady Phoenix."
Saber nodded. "Then are you a bird? Shouldn't a phoenix be the kind of magical creature that was born in flames and destroyed at the same time? "
“...”
The voice that called itself Phoenix did not answer this damn question. A few seconds later, she spoke with a hint of doubt.
"You … are very special."
"Yes, I know, I am very special."
Saber spread out his hands. "Many people say so."
"No, what I mean is that your soul is very unique. It has fused so perfectly with the carrier. Even I have rarely seen such an individual in my long life. Furthermore, your soul is very noisy. I can see the dark energy entwining around it. So … I guess you are in trouble?"
The voice calmed down. She said in a very bored tone, "But I can't help you. You see, I am sealed in this weak body, which makes this reincarnation trip a lot more boring. If you can help me leave this place, I may consider helping you get rid of this trouble."
Saber was stunned. He thought for a few seconds and then took a few steps back.
"Although I really want to get your help, Miss Phoenix … I've thought about it. If even Charles thinks that you're trouble, I think it's best for me to stay away from you. Besides, if you're really as powerful as you say, I don't think that you'll be sealed here by a bald old cripple. So, goodbye. I've enjoyed chatting with you."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to withdraw his consciousness. But just after he said that, Grey Gin's spiritual world seemed to have collapsed. It shook violently in an instant. If this was a high-rise building, with this shaking frequency, it would probably collapse.
"Sigh … after all, it is only the wisdom of mortals."
The voice sounded again. Even if she was rejected, she was not depressed at all. On the contrary, she excitedly returned her consciousness to Saber's consciousness. She said softly.
"You people have never learned to revere the mysterious existence of the infinite universe, but this is also your inherent advantage. Of course, I didn't discuss this with you. I'm just telling you my decision. Since you're the first mortal to arrive here other than this little girl and that old man, I'm willing to give you a chance."
"Boom!"
A scorching energy returned to Saber's body as he quickly withdrew his consciousness. He felt as if a fire was burning in his chest. In an instant, his flesh and blood were scorched. Even the skin on his chest cracked. He rolled on the ground in pain. This scene caught the surrounding girls and boys a little off guard. Four of them reached out their hands together, but they could not hold Saber's body.
He was like a fish jumping on the ground. He opened his mouth to breathe, but he could not even take a breath.
The voice rolled in his heart. It was full of an incomprehensible interest.
"I have given you the seed, interesting mortal. You are more suitable to be the host than that girl. I hope to see the scattered power of the Phoenix reassemble in your body. I also hope to see the true master appear. But I know that to do this, you need luck … you need unimaginable luck."
"No matter what, I wish you good luck!"
"Who the hell are you! Bastard! Tell me! Who the hell are you! "
Saber roared crazily in his heart. The voice was silent for a moment. Before it completely disappeared, she said in a low voice.
"If you must know … I am the manifestation of the passion of all things in the universe. My spark brings life to this universe, and my flame will eventually destroy it … I am the infinite reincarnation of life and death. I am a lone traveler between light and darkness. I am something that time cannot destroy. I am one of the cornerstones of the multiverse. I am … the Phoenix!"
"Boom!"
A wisp of flame sprang out from the surface of Saber's body. In an instant, it completely covered his body. The flame was so hot that it forced everyone around him away. The flame rapidly gathered around him and formed a scorching flame storm. It expanded rapidly and finally swallowed the entire street.
Grey Jean who was completely awakened by the unforeseen event looked at Saber who was covered in flames in horror. She subconsciously rushed towards the sky. No one stopped her as everyone was paying attention to Saber's situation.
The moment Grey Jean entered the sky above Gotham, an invisible net accurately wrapped around her body. It frantically tightened and finally dragged her towards another direction.
"Charles, you really know how to hide things."
Magneto who was standing in the air looked at Grey Jean who was being dragged towards him. His eyes were filled with surprise and joy.
"I have to thank Saber … every time I follow him, I can discover something interesting. Hahahaha."
