"Have you heard that Eric brought back a beautiful sister from outside a few days after he disappeared. Ororo's face turned pissed." In the student cafeteria at Xavier College, John the Fireman was having breakfast while showing off his rumor to his friends.

"You should put 'Mr.' before his name to show respect." Steeler Pitt corrected his friend's impoliteness.

"How could it be Ororo? Shouldn't the angry person be Qin? During the period when Eric was away, she often stared alone. I see Scott must be out of the way." Glare Alison has always been very interested in gossip news.

"Our Magneto is extremely charming." John spread his hands. "I really envy his ability. I have always wanted to learn a few things from him, but unfortunately I don't have the chance. I don't know what lesson he will teach us today. If I have time, I must run over and ask him how he did it."

His words immediately caused a burst of ridicule among his classmates. The boys were fine. The closed environment of the college made them less exposed to the outside world and had a little shy personality. The girls matured early, and some words were still very bold in private among acquaintances. Even a shy girl like Katie dared to tease him.

For those of them, who are almost isolated from the world, circulating gossip news from teachers behind their backs is a rare pastime, just like a new teacher involved in complex emotional problems and mysterious, their imagination is like wings, and they fly out of the sky in an instant.

It should be said that Eric's first lesson was very successful, which not only dispelled the students' sense of strangeness and rejection, but also aroused their enthusiasm for the outside world. In the last Snake Destroy Operation, these young people finally knew that while the world closed the door to them, they quietly left a small door. As long as they searched carefully, they could find a way to heaven, and Eric was the key they were looking for.

These days, young people have been looking forward to another lesson: thrilling actions, achievements obtained from struggle, people cheer enthusiastically, and most importantly, people are really needed by people - for mutants with slight inferiority in their hearts, this experience is really great.

They can't wait to step out of campus again.

They were not disappointed, and Eric played the same idea, but before that, he still needed to convince someone to help him.

"I'm going to patrol, Eric, the recent activities against mutants are revived, so I can't lead you." Ororo refused. Due to lack of sleep, she has been unable to get excited recently. After finally Eric came back, she was about to muster up the courage to talk to him, but she learned about Selena, which made her feel indescribable. Although Eric claims to be the father of the British Rose, only ghosts believe his nonsense------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Father? Is there any more unreliable relationship than this?

Master? This is your true face!

very good!

Ororo felt that he should look at Eric with admiration, and he was so slutty that he was like an American in the 1980s. Every time he saw Selena kissing around the bastard, she wanted to punch him hard in the face to let him know how powerful the Storm Girl is.

But it seems a bit too much to do this.

This is just unrequited love after all.

It seems that he can't blame him.

My sad life, I went bankrupt before I even started confessing my love. The simple mutant lady didn't even have words like "competition" in her mind. She was just mourning and complaining, so this made her even more listless.

"I'm very tired Eric, please forgive me for not being able to help you." She wanted to say that in her heart.

"Yes, Selena is my assistant coach. She is very capable. It's enough to have her." Eric said this. He actually praised her "daughter" in person. Is this called asking for help? Ororo was even more dissatisfied when he heard this. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind to reject this ruthless man in the name of the storm and swear that she would never go back on her regret.

But how could Eric, the cunning guy, let her go easily? He had sharpened his paws to tease the female colleague.

"But you are irreplaceable. I want to see you by my side." Eric approached unknowingly, staring at her with blue and gray eyes seriously and said gently. The heat he breathed hit Ororo's face, like a ball of fire roasting on her chest. The Stormwoman's original firm position soon softened.

"Is this true?" The Stormwoman asked weakly, reminding herself in her heart - she should reject him, Ororo.

"I don't worry if you are here." Eric nodded.

"Okay..." Ororo agreed in a strange way, then lowered her head in shame, feeling that she was useless.

"Hmm------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Today is to fight monsters or capture aliens. Soldier John is willing to serve you, sir." The Fire Man became funny as soon as he came up, and he had endless energy to vent.

"Let's go, today the world is peaceful, there are no monsters, no aliens, and no suffering girl needs you to help her breathe artificially. We have to carry out a peace mission, code name: Friendship match, destination: Lake Alcali." Eric's words caused laughter.

"Lake Alcali?" asked Ororo, who was flying the aircraft. "Logan just returned from there, and it was desolate and there was nothing but stones or lake water."

"Our goal is to be underground. There is an old man in the base below who once scared the children of the academy to death. We are going to visit him."

"Old man... do you think Stryk?" After thinking for a while, Ororo realized that she was so scared that she almost threw away the pilot wheel of the aircraft. The students were also shocked. They did not expect that this lesson would be to drill into the tiger's den.

"Eric, it's not the time for war to begin. Stryker is behind the Ministry of Defense, and it's very dangerous there..." She screamed in panic, afraid that Eric would get hot and do stupid things.

"Don't worry, we're just visiting this gentleman and his organization, and young people need to have a stronger understanding of the enemy, which is a necessary lesson."

"But..." Ororo still wanted to convince him, but Eric was fearless.

"There is no danger, no war, the professor will pay attention to us."

Even with the promise, Eric spent a lot of effort to convince her to continue moving towards Canada.

The aircraft is very quiet now, and the students are no longer so excited, but they are a little scared.

As a mutant, you can't know who is the president, but you can't know who is Stryker.

He was a butcher, an executioner, and a living Frankenstein. He hated mutants and grabbed hundreds of compatriots into cages and cramped and scraped marrow like studying mice, making them into biological weapons. He is Satan on earth, and his reputation is widely circulated in the mutant world. Every move is caring for people, but it is difficult to find clues. Sometimes he is silent and there is no news. So please be careful not to relax, because he is silently staring at you in the dark, looking for your fleeting weaknesses, and pounces on you whenever you have the chance and kills you.

If this horror was only in the teachings of the predecessors before, then after the night of the academy being attacked, the students had truly experienced this silent threat.

This threat makes them both hate and fear, and even with the double guarantee of Eric and Professor, they cannot relax. The closer they get to their destination, the more nervous they are.

This tension also exists in Ororo, who knows Stryker more than the students, so the pressure increases exponentially.

Eric looked back at Selena. She sat quietly in her seat browsing a magazine. Feeling the owner's gaze, she raised her head and smiled.

This is a calmness that has only been through many battles. Young people still have a long way to go.

But that's exactly what you have to do, isn't it?
