Chapter 357 S: Glorious Event (End)

In front of the French window of Arkham Sanatorium, Schiller put on goggles and looked at the star that suddenly shone in the sky. Strange squinted his eyes, looked up at the sky, and said, "She was upgraded?"

Schiller shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, it depends on her own choice."

"This is a kind of opportunistic way. She has status but no power. If there is any special ability, it is probably that she will not die."

·In fact, I don't understand the principle here at all..."

"You don't need to understand, you just need to know that this state can only be maintained for a period of time. Once a certain relationship disappears, the status will naturally decline."

"Then why did you let him upgrade at this moment?"

"You can't finish your homework. Don't you want to take a look at the answer?"

Strange had no rebuttal. Schiller sighed and said, "If you can't take a look at the answer, Asgard's dilemma is almost unsolvable. Even if you see the answer, how to copy it and whether you can copy it without flaws is also a problem. "

"Odin has too many concerns. Thor has a mission. Only Loki has the ability and spare energy to answer. To what extent can she do and whether she can reverse the inevitable fate of Asgard, we will know when the book is closed..."

Thor stood among the people of Asgard in the square in front of the gate of Asgard Palace. Beautiful magic lights floated around the fountain. Colorful flowers and sweet and clear spring water were brought up and placed in front of Thor.

Odin stood beside him and raised his hand holding the spear. Between the thunder, a crown descended and slowly fell on Thor's head. The crowd below cheered fiercely. The whole Asgard was boiling. They shouted: "New King! "

Thor no longer had a smug expression on his face. He turned around, lowered his head, put his hand on his shoulder, and saluted Odin. After Odin turned into lightning and left, Thor turned his head to look at the Asgard corridor next to him. He seemed to be looking for something.

Seeing that Loki's figure did not appear, Thor's eyes were a little disappointed. He sighed, but said nothing.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in the corridor on the other side. Thor turned his head and saw Loki leaning against the wall with his arms folded. He snapped his fingers at him, and then his figure disappeared and appeared in the corridor on the other side.

Loki, who has returned to being a man, With the cunning smile of the God of Trickster on his face, just like the pranks he had done before, this was just a harmless joke at the coronation ceremony, at least that's how Thor saw it.

But there were also many Asgardians complaining, they felt Loki was an ungrateful person, his brother didn't show up on such an important day for Thor, it was a waste of Thor's usual kindness to Loki.

Standing at the highest point, Thor took in everyone's expressions, he recalled the conversation he had with Loki standing on the clock tower last night in the sunset breeze.

"Why do you want to give up the upgrade? Don't you know that this is a great opportunity, you can become a being above the universe, almost omniscient and omnipotent!" Thor walked to Loki with his weapon and said to him in great confusion. …

Loki shook his head and said, "You always think about problems so simply. If this can solve Asgard's problems, don't you think the father of the gods can't do it? By extracting all the energy of the nine kingdoms and uniting them, he can also become a being above the universe..."

"But this is an opportunity for you." Thor advised earnestly: "Your physique is not that good, and you lost your divine power and priesthood before. If you can upgrade directly, wouldn't that solve these problems directly?"

"Do you think that when I am excluded because I can't get along with others, I will try every means to make myself the same as you?" Loki showed a mocking expression and said, "No, I am different from you. I am not a poor creature who can't live without honor and sense of mission. ”

“I don’t need to live in an environment where everyone praises me, and I don’t need someone to ask me about my well-being every day and act considerate. I know they have other needs…”

Thor turned around and looked into the distance between the pillars of the clock tower.

Asgard is an empty island floating in the dark universe, so its sunset is particularly short. This brilliant light itself is the best scenery. Thor asked: "I think you must have seen something, so you didn’t choose to take this road…”

“You rarely have a brain.”

Loki tilted his head and said: "I just went up to take a look at the answer. If I use this method to prove the only one, I will get nothing. ”

“What is the principle? Why can you upgrade after changing your gender and asking a few questions?”

“I don’t know, because there is no psychiatrist in Asgard. I recommend you to see a psychiatrist because I think you are more seriously ill than me. "

Thor was about to retort, but when he thought about how Schiller's method allowed Loki to see the scenery above the universe, he said with some doubt: "Does the psychiatrist have this ability? Well, I'll go see him another day."

"You're going to be crowned tomorrow?" Loki turned around and asked him.

"Yes, this is a bit urgent, right? But the father of the gods told me that he might be very busy for a while and could not manage Asgard's affairs, so, that's it..."

Thor did not look excited. Loki watched the glory of the sunset in the distance gradually being swallowed by the darkness. He said slowly: "I have seen the endless magnificent scenery and the indescribable great glory. At the same time, I have also seen our inevitable fate of destruction and the bottomless dark end..."

Loki's hair fluttered, and he looked at a distance farther than the distance. It was as if he returned to that moment of glimpse, and the voice became distant and hazy.

"If this is a disaster that no one can face alone, then we can only stand together."

"It's not because I understand your meaningless sense of honor, nor is it because I reconcile with those fools who never repent..."

"It's because this is also my home. No one can use any reason to expel me from here. Asgard is my eternal hometown, past, present, and future, always the same."

"No matter who rules this land, no matter what absurd trend will be set off on this land, no matter what they are chasing after in the crowd, I will fight for it..."...

"For my hometown, for myself, for my parents, and for those who will also fight for this until the last moment..."

Loki turned his head to look at Thor. On the lonely bell tower of Asgard, in the beginning of the night when the stars descended, the voice of the young prince went with the wind, drifting farther and farther away.

"...New King."

The stars in the night sky are getting brighter and brighter. On one of the planets hidden in the darkness, the bustling crowd is celebrating the festival. When the night and the starlight come together, the familiar Jingle Bells rings through the streets and alleys, and the windows are shining with warm light. Tonight is Christmas Eve.

"Hey, my Christmas gift is an elk sweater!" Peter happily took the sweater out of the box and measured it on himself. He said, "I like this style, I like this color too much!"

"Light green elk sweater, what are you doing, Schiller? This is simply a cult! Elk sweaters should only be red and green. Blue is the limit of my tolerance!" Steve looked at Schiller and said.

"Don't be like this, Steve, this color is very popular recently. My classmates are all wearing it." Peter excitedly took the sweater and ran to the bathroom to change it. He really suits light colors. His youthful and energetic temperament makes the elk on the sweater look much more vivid.

He smiled brightly, pointed to the box on the coffee table and said, "Doctor, take a look at what I gave you. You will definitely be satisfied!"

Schiller looked at the box. This gift box was not the color of ordinary Christmas packaging, but a light blue like ice and snow. Schiller opened the box and found a strange part inside.

Before he asked, Peter came over, picked up the part and explained to him, "Doctor, I see that you seem to like carrying that umbrella recently, so I made a modified part for the super umbrella."

"Look. This is installed on the tip of the umbrella. There is a cooling system here, which can keep the area within two meters under the umbrella cool in summer, and generate heat in winter..."

"The most important thing is that a nano-level freezing gun is installed here, which is the blueprint that Dr. Connors made before. I used Mr. Stark's new nanotechnology to fold it up and put it in this part..."

" As long as you install it on the tip of the umbrella, it will extend a sensor device through the umbrella tube, and you only need to gently squeeze the handle to fire the freezing bullet. "

"This..." Steve looked at the thing and said, "You add an air conditioner to the umbrella to keep warm in winter and cool in summer, I can understand, but if you add a nano-level super freezing gun to it, isn't it a bit..."

Before he finished speaking, Schiller came over with an umbrella and said, "Come on, let's try it out, Peter, I really like this gift, you are much better than someone who gives apple pie..."

As he said, his eyes kept glancing at Steve, and at this moment. The mecha's click and jet sounds were heard, and Stark landed outside the balcony, with snowflakes on his body. He said, "You told me earlier that you wanted to arm your broken umbrella. I can turn it into an automatically deployed armed mecha..."...

"Why did you come here now? We have already exchanged gifts."

"Something happened with the mutants. They built a laboratory of their own and hope I can give them some technical guidance."

"How are they?"

"What else can we do? They are celebrating the holidays like us. They keep saying that mutants are not ordinary humans. At Christmas, they still buy decorations and hang them on the Christmas tree, making the classroom fancy..."

In Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Polaris picked up her schoolbag and walked out of the classroom. She ran into Charles who was rushing to the classroom. Charles smiled and nodded to her and asked, "Oh, Lorna, are you going back? Say hello to your father for me."

"Oh, yes, Merry Christmas, professor." Polaris seemed to be distracted, but Professor Charles didn't care. Instead, he said to her, "Merry Christmas, Lorna."

Polaris hurriedly left the school. When she returned to the room of the Brotherhood of Mutants base, she opened her schoolbag and took out a red gift box with a dark green ribbon tied on it.

Polaris opened a corner of the gift box, and inside was an elk sweater.

She took a deep breath and whispered, "Why would I want to give a gift to Magneto? That's Magneto..."

She paced in the room with the gift box, talking to the air for a while, and then lowered her head to fiddle with the ribbon on it...

Polaris showed an extremely complicated expression, which seemed to have resentment, regret, fear and entanglement. Suddenly, she showed a thoughtful expression, as if she had an idea.

In another room not far from here, Magneto Eric changed out of his black light armor and hung his cloak on the closet next to him.

He was wearing a very common striped sweater. The electromagnetic force surrounding him made the hair on the sweater stand upright, making him look like a hedgehog.

Eric sat in the armchair in front of the piano, leaning against the backrest, squinting his eyes, as if taking a nap.

On the piano in front of him, small planets floated on the keys one after another.

As the planets fell, the keys struck out the familiar Jingle Bells. The monosyllabic sonata seemed a little lonely, but it became the best sleep music.

Eric closed his eyes, and as his breathing became heavier, the magnetic force surrounding him all the time slowly dissipated, and the upright hairs smoothed down.

After the bells rang on Christmas Eve, those small celestial bodies surrounded him, as if they were celebrating the festival with him, and also like weaving a cradle for a sleeping child.

When the stars went out, Eric fell asleep.

Therefore, he did not see that after the window was opened, a red gift box with a dark green ribbon flew in, and the words on the note were clearly visible under the moonlight -

"Merry Christmas - Professor X."
