Marvel's Father Earth

Chapter 63: Far away, yet so close. (Thank you everyone for your European energy)

Charles received Eric and held his hand with some excitement.

"First meeting, Eric, I'm Charles, I...sorry, I'm a little too excited, it's my first time to communicate with a mutant other than Raven at close range, I'm sorry, I think I need to calm down, huh~huh ~"

Seeing that Charles was a little incoherent with excitement, Eric smiled a little depressedly. If he was so excited just to see him, would Charles faint from excitement if he went to the Holy Land?

"Huh~ Okay, sorry, nice to meet you, Eric." After taking a few deep breaths, Charles finally calmed down.

"Hello, Charles."

"Can you please come with us? This is not a place for chatting," Charles suggested.

"Um...Okay, but let me be clear first, this does not mean that I agree to join you...ahem..." Eric reminded, but it involved internal injuries, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"No problem, but I am confident that you will definitely join us, and your injuries also need treatment." Charles said.

"hope so."

The warship rescued the Marines who fell into the water and wandered away.

After they left, Dismask appeared on the wreckage of the cruise ship. Watching the warship leave, he muttered angrily: "Fuck you, Eric, if we want to help you, you won't accept it. An outsider wants to I’ll just accept it if I help you. It’s really... If I don’t bully you ten times when I go back, I won’t have a surname of Di!”

Um...it seems that my surname is indeed not Di...

However, Dismask glanced at the direction of the submarine's departure again, his eyes full of murderous intent: "How dare you hurt Eric so seriously. If it weren't for Lord Merin's order, I would definitely ask you to go to the underworld to recover." One lap.”

After saying that, Dismask's figure disappeared again and chased in the direction Eric left.

……

In a cabin, only Charles, Ariel and Raven were present, and they needed to talk alone.

"Are you one of our kind?" Raven looked at Eric carefully and asked, "Yes, he is very handsome."

"You too?"

"Yes." Seeing Charles nod, Raven once again performed the "big transformation".

"Interesting ability, not very powerful, but very convenient and practical, and also very beautiful." Eric commented sincerely.

"Really? Thank you for the compliment." In fact, Raven has always hated her own abilities. She wanted to become an ordinary person. She was taken in by Charles when she was a child, and a seed was planted in her heart. She had feelings for Charles, but Charles always Treating her as a sister and refusing to accept her feelings, Raven always thought that this was because Charles knew what her true form was like and therefore rejected her.

But she was still very happy when she was suddenly praised by a mutant other than Charles. This was also the first time someone praised her for being beautiful.

Suddenly, the atmosphere between the two became somewhat ambiguous.

"Although I'm sorry that I'm a bit embarrassing, can you please calm down? Raven, I still have questions to ask Eric." Charles interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere without any discernment.

"You're so annoying, Charles!"

"I apologize."

"Okay, what do you want to ask?"

"Can I ask what your ability is? [Metal Manipulation]? Sorry, it's okay if you don't want to tell me."

"It's nothing. My ability is [magnetic control], not [metal control]."

"Wow! Is it so powerful? Control one of the four basic forces of the universe!" Charles said in surprise. Although he is not a physics professor, he still knows the basics.

"Okay."

"Then can I ask why I can't see your memory? Well, although I know this behavior is rude, but you know, I need to make sure whether we can be friends." Charles took the initiative to explain.

"This is a secret. I'm sorry I can't answer it." Eric said.

"Well, everyone has their own secrets, right? That's normal." Although he was a little disappointed, Charles did not continue to ask. After all, everyone has their own secrets.

"Then it's my turn, Charles, why are you dealing with Sebastian Xiao?" Eric asked.

"Because he is a madman. I had a glimpse of his memory before. He wanted to create war and control war. He wanted to become the king of this world."

"Pfft~cough." After hearing this, Eric choked on his wine and almost couldn't help laughing.

Rule the world?A classic and vulgar villain target, but it really makes me laugh. I admit that your ability is very abnormal. Most people are indeed no match for you, but are you too arrogant?

If Merin wants to rule the world, Eric admits that he can do it. Not only Merin, but also each of the twelve Golden Saints can do it.

but you?Sorry, it's not directed at you, you really are a jerk in front of them.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" Charles and Raven asked worriedly. After all, Eric had been seriously injured before.

"I'm fine, I just got choked." Eric said. His injury has almost recovered, but his internal organs were shaken. With his current physical fitness, he can recover quickly.

"Just because he is a lunatic, you want to stop him?" Eric continued to ask.

"Of course, although I don't want to admit it, he is indeed one of our kind. I will not allow him to use his identity as a mutant to do evil. Doing so will bring devastating results to other mutants." Charles said seriously.

"I see." For this reason, Eric has already given Charles extra points. Protecting the love and hope of the earth, isn't this the belief of the Holy Land?Although it had a little purpose, it was insignificant, so Eric judged that Charles was very suitable to join the Holy Domain.

"What's your answer?" Charles and Raven asked in anticipation.

"Well... I can cooperate with you temporarily. Whether to become friends, I still need to consider..." Eric said with a half-smile.

"Okay." Although he was a little disappointed, Charles could only accept it, but now that he had taken the first step, becoming friends was not far away.

"...But, I'm looking forward to it."

Hearing this, Charles and Raven's disappointed expressions disappeared, and they raised their glasses together.

"I'm looking forward to it too, so stay tuned."

"Stay tuned."

"Ding ~"

The three founders and core veterans of the X-Men signed the "initial contract" at this moment, and the unbreakable bond between the three was established with the crisp sound of clinking glasses.

……

The operation failed, but Clyde was not discouraged. At least he was sure that Moria's information was accurate, and that there were still many people with superpowers in this world. In order to get a promotion and a salary increase, Clyde took the initiative to Charles, Eric and Raven were brought back to their research base.

"Welcome to my site. My job is to investigate the application of supernatural forces in military defense." Clyde introduced his work while taking a few people to visit the base.

"Or attack." Eric added.

Clyde was speechless and quickly changed the subject: "That guy, Xiao? Sebastian? Call him whatever you want, but that guy is cooperating with people from the Polar Bear Country, and we may need your help to stop him."

"Great, so we're going to be the mutant division of the Agency, huh?" Charles asked.

"...Almost." Clyde said vaguely, but his wandering eyes were noticed by Charles and Eric.

It wasn't until they met Clyde's only researcher that Charles became excited again.

"Hello, my name is Hank McCoy."

"Great, another mutant is already here, why didn't you tell him?" Charles asked Clyde.

This operation made Charles realize the difficulty of fighting alone, so they discussed forming their own team of mutants to deal with Sebastian Shaw.

Although Charles can sense whether others are mutants, he can only sense them at close range. It is very difficult to find his teammates in the vast crowd.

But to his surprise, when he first joined the job, his colleague was a mutant. He lamented that happiness came too suddenly.

"What are you talking about?" Clyde asked.

"Well, because you don't know," Charles said with a sigh, feeling sad for Hank McCoy and having to live hiding his identity.

So he apologizes to Hank: "I'm sorry."

"You..." Clyde approached Hank, wanting to ask something.

"You didn't ask, so I didn't tell either," Hank argued.

"So, what is your ability? Are you super smart?" Raven asked with interest.

"It's possible. Hank graduated from Harvard at the age of 15." Clyde introduced proudly. After all, he is the boss of Hank, a thousand-mile horse.

"It would be nice if it was just this." Hank said sadly.

"You can show it, don't worry, these are all your friends." Charles said.

Hank looked around at the people present and looked at their expectant eyes. He couldn't resist their hospitality. He took a few steps back and took off his shoes and socks. Under the cover, Hank's feet turned out to be a pair of powerful hands.

And Hank also demonstrated the power of his feet. He stood under a model of a supersonic aircraft, jumped up suddenly, and his feet actually firmly grasped the model, hanging him upside down in the air.

Ruiwen was a little excited and took the initiative to approach and praise: "You are awesome."

Looking at Raven's beautiful face so close at hand, Hank felt that he was in love, and a small arrow hit his little heart.

"Really?" Hank confirmed.

Raven nodded to make sure she was telling the truth.

Hank was so excited that he let go of his foot and fell to the ground, making a fool of himself.

"Hahaha……"

Everyone was also smart and laughed.

But Eric, who stood at the end, was laughing and sad at the same time.

Because outside the sanctuary, life for mutants is not very good and they have to hide themselves.

Eric recalled Merin's teachings: "Revenge is only your first goal, but it is not the ultimate goal of your life. You have to find your own path and where to go."

This was the first lesson that Merin taught Eric. He has never forgotten that he once believed that his path was the same as that of the Saints, and that like Merin, he protected the love and hope of the earth.

But now, he found that he was wrong. He wanted to help other mutants and make their lives no longer so miserable. This was the path he should take.
