Chapter 323 S: Glorious Event (Part 2)
"I have heard an ancient legend that if you continue to go down in the deepest part of human dreams and pass through many darknesses, you can reach a place called the Kingdom of Dreams, where an ancient god sleeps. He is called the God of Dreams."
"He is in charge of all dreams and thoughts in the world. He is one of the most powerful forces in the universe. He has a dream made up of a thousand cats and can use it to turn dreams into reality."
"But that's just a legend." Charles shook his head and said, "No matter how powerful my mental ability is, in reality, I am still a disabled person with inconvenient legs and feet. When I encounter danger, I still need others to protect me..."
"I am the same. I said before that I am an ordinary person, just a psychologist with a special research direction."
Schiller stood up and paced behind the sofa. As he walked, he said: "Due to my ordinary physical condition, I don't have such a strong spiritual power to explore the upper limit of this ability. Therefore, I invited you to come here and study this topic with me."
"The topic includes two aspects. On the one hand, how to make your own consciousness space and dreams better, and on the other hand, how to turn the created dreams into reality..."
"I know that the second aspect sounds a bit unrealistic, but perhaps you have also done similar research projects. This general direction is just the ultimate goal, and my current stage goal is to expand the palace of thinking..."
"For some reason, I built a tower with more than 330 floors in my consciousness world, but this height has been maintained for a long time and has not been broken through for a long time."
"I guess it's because my mind and thinking power are not enough to expand it..."
Schiller shook his head, but there was no regret in his tone. He said: "This level of thinking palace is completely sufficient, or in fact it has far exceeded the scope of need. 80% of the buildings are experimental buildings. They are where I try various creations."
"But I am still very curious, where is the upper limit of mental ability? Professor Charles, I hope you can study this topic with me. Maybe we can also find other members to form a research group?"
"I am very interested in this topic, but I still have to ask, why do you want to do this research, and what do you plan to do with these research results?"
"This is what I said before. The thing mentioned, have you heard about the upcoming space war? "
Charles shook his head and said, "The first time I heard about this news was from your phone call just now, but I can feel that there are many restless souls near Manhattan. They should not be ordinary people, and the information they spread is indeed related to war..."
"You and I both know how small human beings are in the universe. Some people told me that magic can save everything, and some people told me that the ultimate way out for human beings is machinery and technology. I don't deny these, but I think we can find another way out. "
"The thinking and consciousness of intelligent life are the most precious part of the entire universe. If human beings can take a step forward in this field, then when facing these crises, we will have an extra way out. "
"If you were talking to me about these things in reality, I might not be so interested, but you chose a good place..." Charles also stood up and looked out the window of the house, which was the prosperous and busy interior of the tower.
Charles walked to the window and smiled and said, "Thank you for inviting me to study together, because if you don't do this, I might plagiarize your research results after I go back, which is not very ethical..."
"Although what I said to you about creating a dream world and turning dreams into reality feels too far-fetched, I think it might be a good idea to build such a building in my consciousness space."
"Okay, let's talk about business. What's the matter with that war? Why did SHIELD ask you to come to me? What do they want to do with mutants? ”
“Don’t worry, Professor Charles. There is endless time in the dream for me to explain the whole plan clearly, and after that, you also have enough time to think about what to do…”
Half an hour later in real time, in Charles’ office, Cyclops said hesitantly: “… Well, there are not many opportunities to exercise children’s abilities, but will the internship with SHIELD be a bit…”
Charles turned his wheelchair to the window and said, “If it was someone else who led the team, I might not be at ease, but the person in charge of this cooperative internship is Captain America Steve, and his character is trustworthy.”
“But what are we going to do? There shouldn’t be a war to fight now, right?”
“On the contrary, a cosmic war is about to begin. Although the main battlefield is not near the earth, the aftermath will inevitably affect here. SHIELD has other plans for this war, but they don’t have enough capabilities.”
“So, they want to use mutants again?”
“Just use each other. The scale of this war is destined to make everyone unable to survive alone. In this case, escaping is not a solution. It is better to take the initiative…”
"Scott..." Charles turned his wheelchair and turned back. He looked at Cyclops and said, "I have always been against war, but it is obvious that we cannot stop the war in the universe. In this case, we need to keep up with the current situation and not fall behind, otherwise we will be left behind..."
Cyclops nodded and did not raise any more objections. Charles asked, "Who is in charge of internships and external contacts now?"
"Well, it should have been Angel, but his family's business has been busy recently. I heard that his company is involved in an immortality factor project, and he has to go home to help, so..."
"Okay, who is free now?"
"Well, professor, forgive me for being blunt, even if the war happened in the universe, the crossfire is not near us, but it should be quite dangerous, right? We shouldn't Do you want to mobilize urgently, and then find a few of the most reliable people to take the students to contact SHIELD? "
Charles was stunned for a moment, and he said: "...Oh, yes, war is very dangerous, I just want to emphasize this point, in this case, you and your brother should be free, right?"
When mentioning his brother "Shockwave", Cyclops obviously showed an unnatural expression. The relationship between the two of them was not good. Cyclops said in a helpless tone: "Last time he and Iceman had a big fight because of Polaris, he swore never to come here again. The last time I saw him was three months ago. I can't count on him for anything..."
"Okay, what is Storm doing? She should have come back two months ago, right?"
"She seems to have returned to her hometown. I can't be sure." Cyclops touched his He held his chin and said, "She seems to be in love..."
"Where's Jean?"
"The school's teaching cannot do without her. Now she is in charge of the enrollment and daily teaching arrangements. Oh, by the way, Wolverine took Phantom to the West, and seemed to be tracking something called dragon bones..."
Charles also covered his forehead and asked, "Who else is in the school now?"
"Colossus and Beast are both here, but many people can be contacted at present. If they are to be summoned, they should all come."
"... No, there is no need to make such a big fuss. If Iceman can come back, it would be better. If not, you and Colossus can go. By the way..."
"I heard from Steve that they also have an underage child there, the Spider-Man who has been famous in New York recently. You two can go together. You must keep an eye on the children and don't conflict with them."
"Spider-Man?" Cyclops raised his eyebrows and said, "He is indeed quite famous. All major newspapers in New York have published his figure swaying over New York. Is he not yet an adult?"
"When Steve told me the news, I was also surprised. I thought he was a mutant, but later, Steve told me that his mutation was different from ours."
"But no matter what, having a peer will always make their communication smoother."
"Who should go then? Senior students?"
"I think Shadow, Crystal and Amplifier are good. Haven't the three of them made great progress recently?"
"But they are not even in the same grade, and their abilities cannot be coordinated. Can they really form a team?"
"Actually, I don't understand, Professor..." Cyclops asked with some confusion: "Fighting in the center of the universe and practicing actual combat with the children of Xavier Academy should have nothing to do with it, right? We can't let those teenagers go to the battlefield, right? "
"Indeed, these two things are not directly related, but this is just a small part of a series of events, a cooperative project..."
Ray Eyes was even more confused. He felt that Professor Charles seemed to be a little different from before, but he couldn't tell where the difference was. He always felt that Charles was hiding something from him, but it was difficult to ask.
The next day, in the underground training base of SHIELD, Nick stood behind the one-way glass, watching Spider-Man and several mutant teenagers sparring. He looked at Schiller and asked, "I asked you to find me some mutants to do the dirty work, and you found me such a group of kids? I thought it would be Wolverine. "
"During my communication with Charles, I actively hinted to him your request, but he seemed to understand this as an internship opportunity at the Mutant Academy, but it doesn't matter, aren't they still with two teachers? "
Nick pursed his lips and looked at Cyclops and Colossus who were standing next to the field and cheering for the students. He shook his head and said, "If they weren't here, maybe I could convince these innocent children to help me work, but they are staring at me. What can I do? That guy with red eyes already dislikes me..."
"Don't you just want to make some noise and divert other people's attention so that you can lobby Congress to give S.H.I.E.L.D. more power in this cosmic war? I think they can do this..."
Nick opened his mouth, looked at Schiller, and said, "Well, even if we don't consider the issue of the immorality of letting minors do dirty work, what can they do? They can't even beat Spider-Man..."
Nick's eyes were cast on the field. At this time, a teenage girl stood in the middle of the field waving her arms.
The shadows of all the objects in the venue were controlled by her and attacked Spider-Man, but Spider-Man dodged left and right nimbly as if he had anticipated her actions in advance, and was not disturbed at all.
"Is it possible that it is not that they are too weak, but that Spider-Man is too strong?"
