Professor X was indeed playing chess with Magneto in the office.
At least, that was what Harry saw when he pushed the door open. The professor was a little surprised to see Harry and Kronos together, but he still asked with a gentle smile, "Harry.
What's the matter? "
Harry opened his mouth to say something, but then he realized that there was a problem. He could not be read by Soul Catcher or by any other means.
Therefore, he could not prove to Professor X that what he said was true. Perhaps Kronos could be read, but Oulopolos? But after thinking about it, he looked directly at the professor and explained the reason for the visit in detail.
Professor X did not doubt Harry, but he still raised his index finger to his temple and looked at 'Kronos'. "Klo?"
Oulopolos shrugged indifferently and let go of his brain to let Professor X browse. Harry, on the other hand, was worried for him.
Fortunately, the professor only showed a solemn expression in the end.
He turned the wheelchair to Magneto and said, "Erik.
We have to remind Gotham. "
Magneto's slender fingers flicked a few times on the chessboard. He frowned slightly and said, "As long as we throw the criminals of Gotham into prison before anything happens …"
"No." Professor X and Harry said in unison.
Then, the two of them looked at each other.
Harry slowly explained, "If it's just the Joker,
I can use the superbrain to locate him.
The problem is that the person behind him can block our search. Also, to ensure the safety of the timeline,
We have to let the incident happen.
In other words,
Things have to progress to the stage of the confrontation in the square. "
Magneto tapped the chessboard again and played with the chess pieces under his hand. The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile. "This chess game is quite interesting."
Professor X looked at the messed up chess pieces and showed a similar smile, "Let me guess, which knights have you prepared …" A smile appeared in his blue eyes, and he raised a finger, "Pietro?"
Magneto smiled and nodded. Then, he pushed out the second piece. "Jean Grey."
"Walter?"
"She still can't control her abilities." Magneto shook his head. "I suggest that Raven go, and bring along Côte."
"I'm afraid we can't have too many people. I also want to talk about Scott's …" After all, he was a very steady captain in his heart.
Harry had been raising his hand for a long time. Seeing as the two adults ignored him, he had no choice but to step forward and say, "Professor, just as you said, to avoid alerting the enemy, if we want to infiltrate Gotham, we cannot have too many people …"
The professor narrowed his eyes. "It seems that Harry also has his own candidate. Tell me about it."
"Pietro, Kronos." Harry counted on his fingers. "And … the protégé, and myself."
The two bosses did not give their opinions so easily. Instead, they exchanged ideas in their minds before Professor X said, "I'm afraid that's a bit risky."
However, Harry had his own considerations. "The Righteous Alliance has its own people, and we're going to help them."
Ouroboros, who was watching Harry and Professor X talk in riddles, suddenly raised his hand and said, "Let me recommend another candidate."
Everyone turned to Oulopolos, and he said with a smile, "Scott Lang, also known as Ant-Man."
Harry was stunned. He thought that Ouroboros would say Spiderman, but he didn't expect Ouroboros to say another Insect Man. (Bug: Spiders are not insects!) Just as he was about to ask what was the use of bringing Ant-Man along, he thought of a big use for Ant-Man. At the same time, Professor X also thought of the same thing, and he passed the idea to Magneto. Therefore, everyone smiled in relief.
Oulopolos scratched his chin and shook his head with a smile. With the help of the whole Marvel scriptwriter, it would be strange if they did not win this battle.
Ant-Man had not been out on any missions recently. He was teaching classes in school (he was also a physics and tactics teacher). After Professor X called him over to explain the situation, the adventurous Lang quickly agreed and asked excitedly, "Professor, can we drive the Blackbird baby there? Oh my God, I've been eyeing that big guy for a long time. Although the Righteous Alliance has a plane, it's usually flown by the Captain, and it's not as cool as the Black Bird. Since I'm the only adult in this mission, I should be the Captain … "
Harry on the side had been stunned by Ant-Man's series of words. Is he really not Deadpool in disguise?
Oulopolos was used to this and said leisurely, "Why do you think I thought of him? He, Deadpool, Star-Lord, and Spiderman have set up a chatterbox club! "
"…" Harry didn't know what to say, so he had to touch his nose. "Iron Man wasn't pulled in?"
"Iron Man especially hates Deadpool." Oulopolos wrinkled his nose. "But he still provided the funds for the activities."
Harry had a headache just thinking about what activities the club of these four people could usually hold.
Professor X also had a headache, and even his voice was a little weak. "No, Ant-Man, you're not going to fly the Black Bird …" They had just discussed this matter. "You're going to fly the airship." Seeing that Ant-Man was puzzled, he added, "The kind that can be invisible."
That's right, the means of transportation they used for this operation was the invisible airship that was entrusted to the United States Magic Association. In addition to being invisible, it had the advantage of being small. The most important thing was that Ant-Man did not know how to fly it. So, the person who was the captain was Harry, which made everyone feel inexplicably relieved.
But before departure, Harry saw that a man in black was already sitting in the captain's seat. A man in black with a very, very ugly face.
"Professor …" Harry slapped the back of his head. No wonder he always felt that something was wrong. Borrowing the airship was such a big deal, it was impossible that the people from the Magic Association did not inform the person in charge. Since they had informed Snape, there was no way he would let him go to Gotham alone. He immediately put on a flattering smile. "Professor, you're going too?"
Snape's fierce eyes clearly said, "I want to rest for a day or two, can you give me a break?!" At that moment, Snape deeply felt that it was not a good decision to come to America this time. Ever since he walked into Marvel Academy, the little brat from the Potter family kept getting into trouble …
Harry thought to himself, I don't want to either. My scars are still hurting. Snape threw over a bottle of magic potion and gritted his teeth. "Why aren't you getting on?"
Everybody (including the ant-man) quickly adjusted themselves to the most obedient state and got on the airship obediently. Then, Quicksilver said in a low voice, "I'm so envious of Harry. Jeremy also said that he would accompany me to Gotham …" Unfortunately, his father had hung him up on the bridge again.
Harry, who was envied, took the potion bitterly and felt that his headache was slightly relieved. He leaned against the seat and closed his eyes to rest. After Snape steadily lifted the airship into the air, he switched to the stealth mode. It was not until then that the people of Marvel realized that the "invisibility" in the magic world was a kind of "true invisibility". Fortunately, none of them were afraid of heights.
Oulopolos looked at the scenery below with great interest for a while. Then, he stood up from the back and pushed Harry's head. [Hey, did you get the key to the library?]
[Why are you asking that?] Harry pushed Oulopolos' hand away. Then, he opened his eyes in surprise and looked back at the young man who was winking at him. [You … You're talking in my head?]
[Can't I? We're good colleagues ~]
[… Remove the squiggles and speak properly.] Harry was stunned for a moment before he calmed down. Indeed, he and Oulopolos were now "colleagues" in every way. [I have the key, but I've only been in the library once or twice.] Subconsciously, Harry did not really want to deal with the "library".
Oulopolos clicked his tongue in Harry's head and put on an almost mocking expression. [Like I said, comrade, congratulations on being tricked!]
Harry also felt that his life was a trap, but he was still a little confused when Oulopolos repeatedly emphasized this point. [Hey, since you're a senior, you should at least help your juniors. For example, what's the salary, how many days of vacation a year, is there any insurance …]
Oulopolos rudely interrupted Harry's nagging. [How would I remember? I resigned many years ago.]
[That's true …] Harry's lips twitched. [Then … Why don't you tell me how you resigned?] Perhaps it could be used as a reference in the future.
This topic seemed to be of interest to the Time Prisoner. He directly leaned on Harry's seat and said, [You know how I died, right?] Harry nodded. Ouroboros continued, "Actually, at first, suicide was just an idea. I didn't plan to carry it out. I just slept all day long. Then, one day, Maya came to see me …"
Hearing Oulopolos' tone, Harry wanted to bring out a plate of sunflower seeds, but unfortunately, he did not have any. He could only patiently listen to Oulopolos' story.
[I didn't particularly want to talk to him. That guy, tsk tsk, is super boring. When he saw me, he asked, 'What have you been doing recently?' I said, 'Eating, sleeping, playing with Lil Pea.' He said, 'Is it interesting?' I said, 'Yes.' Then he left.]
Harry had to interrupt his narration. [Maya went to the border of Chaos to ask about your daily life?]
Oulopolos said matter-of-factly, [I said that person is super boring!]
[… Nothing wrong. Continue.]
[Well, the next day he came again and asked me what I was doing, and of course I was eating and sleeping and beating Lil Pea, and he went away again, and the next day he came again... and so on for, er, a year or two, and I was so bored that I said, 'Eat and sleep,' and he said, 'Where's Lil Pea?' and I said, 'Lil Pea was killed,' and he said, 'Oh, is that interesting?' and it's not interesting, it's not interesting, I said to him. So, Maya nodded and said, 'Then why don't you go and die?' I thought about it. Yes, that makes sense …]
Harry felt that the potion he had just drunk was not enough to resist the power of Oulopolos. He pressed his temples and asked solemnly, [So, the Time Prisoner committed suicide because Lil Pea was killed?!]
[Yes, weren't you listening just now?] Oulopolos' eyes were implicitly accusing.
Harry could not help but wail, [Why?! Why did a tragic fairy tale have to be twisted into a post-modern absurd drama?! Why is this happening?!]
Oulopolos replied sincerely, [But this is literary history.]
After digesting … no, expelling this dusty past, Harry asked with a remaining breath, [Although you committed suicide before the collapse of the library, you should know Nihon, right? Nothingness and time … It sounds like they have a good relationship.]
Oulopolos smiled, [Then you're not listening to the story.]
Harry was stunned, [What do you mean?]
Oulopolos rolled his eyes and shook his head, [It means that I have a bad relationship with Nihon. I'd rather die again than have anything to do with him.]
Harry pondered Oulopolos' incoherent words for a while and felt that his colleague was implying something.
Oulopolos blinked, [Harry, have you heard of a saying? Truth
is
the
daughter
of
time.]
