Chapter 664 Charles's Peeping
Fight to the death universe, motel.
In the living room, Zhang Yi sat lazily on the sofa with his legs crossed. Opposite him, the follow-up report of the Manhattan incident was playing on the TV.
In fact, just as Zhang Yi expected, after fighting some mutants who had no time to escape, the huge Wild Sentinel robot came to a standstill due to energy problems. Due to the sudden shutdown, the Wild Sentinel was advancing. He lost control in an instant, fell directly to the ground, and even smashed a building.
Although it has been determined that the huge robot will probably not stand up again, until now, no one has dared to approach the Wild Sentinel.
The military set up barracks nearby, and teams of people came from all over the place to investigate and rescue the victims. The specific number of casualties has not yet been collected, but what is known is that almost all European leaders who came here to attend the summit. Didn't make it out alive.
Under the brutal attack of the Wild Sentinels, not even the mutants with superpowers can guarantee their own safety, let alone these ordinary people.
【How miserable】
Miss Time stared at the picture on the TV screen and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.
"Is it miserable?" Zhang Yi twitched the corners of his mouth and snorted. "I do think they deserve it, what do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Miss Time turned around and looked at Zhang Yi.
【How to say? 】
"Didn't Logan say it before? The main issue discussed at this summit is none other than the cross-border issue of mutants. Mutants in this world have become rare species, but they are not extinct yet. There are still some Individuals survive in this world.”
Zhang Yi raised his eyelids, his eyes full of complex expressions. "I'm just curious, madam, what do these people think? They are the ones who want the mutants to be exterminated, and they are the ones who don't let the mutants leave the country.
They fear and discriminate against mutants, and look at this race born from humans with strange eyes. Just because of their different appearance and abilities, they forcefully impose sins on these people. That's it, that's all. Don't want to Living with mutants can completely drive them away, but what have they done? "
[They sealed the border and did not allow any mutants to enter or exit.]
"Yes, sealing the border does not allow mutants and humans to coexist harmoniously, nor does it allow mutants to leave here to go to other countries or establish their own country, and then use technology to create food that suppresses mutant genes for ordinary people to eat. This is the same as forcing mutants to What difference does it make to die?"
Zhang Yi sighed. "So I say they deserved to die, what do you think?"
[These people want to keep the power firmly in their own hands, right? According to what you say, sir, they really deserve it. 】
Miss Time looked at the TV screen again. This time, her gaze was much calmer, and even contained a bit of ridicule.
"Hmph, this matter is such a big deal now. I guess they can't suppress it anymore. Now the eyes of the whole world are focused here. I just don't know how these people are going to end it." Zhang Yi crossed his arms and said casually. .
Miss Time smiled slightly.
[I don’t know how these people ended up, but what I do know is that the eyes of the whole world are indeed focused here, even you, my lord, are no exception. 】
Zhang Yi heard the implication of Miss Time's words and smiled accordingly. "You want to say that if it were me before, I would definitely take the initiative to solve this matter, right? Am I such a bad person in your eyes?"
[The adults are naturally good people to me. 】Miss Time spread her hands and said innocently.
Seeing this, Zhang Ye curled up his lips helplessly, then he paused, slowly became serious, and murmured softly.
"Perhaps this is the test of me by those guys. Originally, these observers just wanted to attract my attention with some heroes from other timelines, but after I sent them to the wasteland, the observers also knew There's no point in doing that, and if it doesn't catch my eye, then there's no point in doing it."
[So they sent these disorderly, chaotic and uncontrollable existences just to prevent you from sending them to the wasteland. 】
"Yes."
Zhang Ye couldn't help but frown slightly when he thought about the current situation in the wasteland.
"The establishment of diplomatic relations between the Wasteland universe and the Flashpoint One universe is still going on. Once the flow rates of the timelines on both sides are the same, it will have an impact on myself. With my connection with the time controller, I am afraid that the time there will be completely destroyed. Bound to me.”
Miss Time blinked. She did not say anything, nor did she deny this. She understood that Zhang Yi was right. As the Lord of Time, no matter what world Zhang Yi was in, the wasteland had already been with Zhang Yi. Bound.
And this also means that Zhang Yi has no time to return to the wasteland at this time.
"Batman went to the Flashpoint One universe, and he went with the Robins. Franklin's situation has not yet stabilized. The regulators have to face the fluctuations caused by magic returning to the world at all times. The heroes on Earth are even more... It’s because we don’t have enough resources. If we send these uncontrollable outsiders there at this time, I’m afraid they will cause trouble.”
Zhang Yi bit the nail of his thumb and narrowed his eyes.
"Raising a cannon to hit a horse is forcing me to get out of the car."
【What do you mean, sir? 】
Hearing this, Zhang Yi twitched the corner of his mouth.
"I said, if you want to win this game, I can't be the one playing chess, at least not now. They will choose to take this step. This can only prove one thing, that is, they are very concerned about the situation in the wasteland. I understand, I understand very much.”
[I remember you said that the observer's vision is also affected by the barrier of the universe. According to this reason, they should not be able to see the situation in the Lightning 1 universe. 】Miss Time suddenly thought of something and said.
"That's true, but it's hard to say whether there is any conspiracy. Don't forget, there are many capable people in this world, and we have never dealt with most of them." Zhang Yi He said in a deep voice with deep meaning.
At this moment, a slight cough suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two.
Although the coughing sound was quiet and very slight, Zhang Yi could still hear it clearly.
After looking at Miss Time, Zhang Yi slowly stood up and walked toward the bedroom.
In order to let Charles have a better rest and so that he would not be so crazy, Logan specially gave him some sleeping pills on the way, so he fell asleep directly when he arrived at the hotel. Now it seems that the medicine is not effective It has passed.
Silently opening the door, Zhang Yi saw the elderly Professor X lying on the bed as soon as he entered the bedroom.
This was the first time he officially saw Professor X, and it was also the first time he saw the living, relatively ‘normal’ Charles.
There were many worlds he visited before, but the one that left the deepest impression on Zhang Yi was undoubtedly President X in the ruined universe. But at that time, President In the end, I never saw the other person’s face with my own eyes.
"Come in, kid."
Charles also discovered Zhang Yi, but what puzzled Zhang Yi was that the other party didn't show any special expression towards him. He didn't even wonder why he, a stranger, appeared here. Instead, he smiled and let him get closer.
At this time, Charles was like a kind Santa Claus, caring equally for every seemingly young child.
"Mr. Charles, it's time for you to take your medicine." Zhang Yi walked in with a glass of water and a pill in his palm. This was what Logan specifically told Zhang Yi before leaving.
"Yes, I will forget it if you don't tell me." Charles did not refuse, but struggled to sit up.
"Slow down." Upon seeing this, Zhang Yi hurriedly stepped forward to help Charles, helped Charles sit up on the bed, and carefully placed the pills in his hand.
Charles took the pill and threw it into his mouth, then took the water glass and took a sip. In order to prove that he had really taken the pill, he opened his mouth and showed Zhang Yi.
"Aren't you curious about my identity?" Zhang Yi asked casually.
After all, this was the first time the two met. Although he knew that Charles had Alzheimer's disease, Zhang Yi still wondered how such an old man could treat her so well.
"You are a person full of secrets." Charles looked at Zhang Yi with a smile. These words directly made Zhang Yi's expression stiffen. While Zhang Yi was thinking, he continued. "Few people can stop me from getting into their heads."
Zhang Yi was suddenly enlightened when he heard this. "You can still use your telepathy freely now?"
"certainly."
Charles didn't hesitate at all, but Zhang Yi didn't know whether it was possible or not. He didn't feel any strange mental power invading him at all. He was afraid that Charles was really hallucinating.
At this time, Zhang Yi had no intention of continuing to communicate with him. "You'd better have a good rest. I'm right outside. If you need anything, just call me."
Seeing Zhang Yi preparing to leave, Charles's expression suddenly changed. He did not stop Zhang Yi from leaving, but spoke in a deep voice.
"I know what you are afraid of, child. You are afraid of the unknown, those things that are not within your understanding, those things that are contrary to your knowledge but ignored by you. You are afraid that you have been targeted by some guy, but There is nothing you can do."
After the words fell, Zhang Yi's hand that had just been about to open the door suddenly stopped in mid-air, and his whole body stopped at the door of the bedroom.
Turning his head slightly, Charles' face was still so kind.
But Zhang Ye's eyes became more serious.
"Is this what you see in my head?"
