Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters briefly returned to a state of calm after Nightcrawler rescued the White Queen.
At this moment, Wolverine, who had been severely injured by his own claws, finally recovered and approached Professor X with a look of unwillingness.
"Professor, where did that woman go? I want to fight her for another three hundred 'rounds'! Where is she?"
"Haha~" Hearing Wolverine's words, Ron, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh, "Wolverine, you need to know your limits. While your abilities are good, there are people who can counter you. Besides Magneto, psychics are among them. If Professor X wasn't protecting you, you'd better be careful!"
"Ron is right, Logan, you need to calm down." Professor X also nodded, adding to the jab.
"Hmph." Wolverine snorted, dismissive outwardly but secretly agreeing with Ron's words. Then he looked at Professor X, puzzled: "By the way, Professor, I keep hearing you talk about Magneto. What exactly are his abilities, and why is he also my nemesis?"
"Magneto is my old adversary. He's the leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants and has the ability to control all ferrous metals. Your body is full of special alloys, so Magneto is your natural enemy."
Professor X sighed softly and explained Magneto's background to Wolverine.
This time, Wolverine learned his lesson and took everything Professor X said to heart, so he could be aware of these things in the future and not suffer such a terrible defeat again.
Professor X smiled, then continued, "Magneto clearly came prepared. I don't know the real name of that red-skinned fellow who appeared earlier, only that his codename is Nightcrawler. He also possesses some psychic abilities, but Nightcrawler's primary ability is teleportation. He can teleport to many places; his power is very strong!"
"Nightcrawler didn't appear earlier because he likely wanted to find and take Rogue while the White Queen was holding us off. Later, because the White Queen was subdued, he appeared and rescued her."
Wolverine grew anxious upon hearing this and quickly said, "Then what about Rogue? He hasn't already been taken away by some Nightcrawler, has he?"
"Of course not." Professor X shook his head, "My telepathy can sense that Rogue is still within Xavier's School. Don't worry, but..."
"But what?" Wolverine asked next.
"But from what I know of Magneto, he's someone who won't give up until he achieves his goal. If he doesn't succeed, he will definitely return."
As he spoke, Professor X frowned, his expression filled with worry.
Meanwhile, Ron also felt a subtle sense of unease because of Nightcrawler's appearance.
Unlike the White Queen, Nightcrawler should have died in "X-Men: Days of Future Past." How could he still be in Magneto's camp?
Could it be that the "Days of Future Past" timeline hasn't arrived yet, or that Nightcrawler himself faked his death, which is why he appeared?
However, Nightcrawler was just a minor interlude, and Ron didn't pay too much attention to it, merely making a mental note of the incident to see if there would be any changes in the future.
Just then, on the lawn of Xavier's School, a patch of space began to twist again.
Then, Nightcrawler, who had appeared before, materialized there.
The difference was that this time, Nightcrawler brought a great many people, and beside him was Magneto, wearing a special helmet.
"Charles, I don't want to hurt you. Just hand over Rogue."
Magneto wasted no words, directly stating his purpose to Professor X, not wanting to waste a single moment.
Tonight was the global summit, and he needed to take Rogue back immediately, then transport the transformation device to the Statue of Liberty to carry out his plan.
"Erik, Senator Kelly is here with me. I know what you're trying to do. Your transformation device is flawed; Senator Kelly is dying now. Your device is a killing machine. Listen to my advice, abandon your plan, Erik!"
Upon seeing Magneto, Professor X quickly revealed the problem with Magneto's transformation device, hoping to persuade Magneto to abandon his plan.
"Impossible!" Magneto frowned, disbelieving Professor X's words, and directly rejected him.
He had clearly seen Senator Kelly transform into a mutant; how could his transformation device be flawed? This must be something Professor X made up to stop him.
"Erik, you have to believe me..."
"Enough, Charles, I don't want to hear your nonsense. Hand over Rogue now, or I will act against you."
Seeing Magneto's disbelief, Professor X tried to continue persuading him, but Magneto directly interrupted him.
Of course, Professor X refused. He wanted to continue speaking, but Magneto, seeing this, directly controlled a steel bar from who knew where to fly towards Professor X, intending to bind him.
Wolverine, standing beside Professor X, saw this and unsheathed his Adamantium claws, slashing at the flying steel bars.
"Heh... you must be Wolverine, right? I know you; your body is all special alloy!"
Magneto smiled as he saw Wolverine attack, and with a wave of his hand, he directly controlled Wolverine, suspending him in mid-air for a moment. After deforming Wolverine's body, he harshly threw Wolverine aside.
"Charles, your subordinates are already under my control, and your mind control is useless against me. Hurry up and take me to Rogue. I'm doing this for the good of our mutant community!"
Magneto approached Professor X, a steel bar standing before him, and threatened him, staring.
He didn't truly intend to attack Professor X, nor would he kill him. Although their ideologies differed, Professor X was, after all, fighting for the interests of mutants, and he had once been his best friend. How could he truly bear to kill Professor X?
"If you truly care about us mutants, then you shouldn't use mutants to achieve your plan!"
Professor X's expression worsened. He retorted, then turned his gaze to Ron beside him, his eyes pleading.
"What, Charles, who is this unknown kid? Is he a new X-Men you've recruited?"
Upon seeing Professor X look at Ron, Magneto finally became interested in Ron, who had been standing by Professor X's side the entire time.
He had actually seen Ron earlier, but being extremely familiar with Professor X, he hadn't paid much attention to Ron. He saw Ron was still young and simply assumed he was a student at Professor X's school.
"Ron is a guest at my Xavier's School, specifically here to help me." Professor X's expression was solemn. He felt that Magneto's abilities were growing stronger and stronger. Although Ron had displayed powerful strength, whether Ron could defeat Magneto was truly hard to say.
"Oh? Helping you, Charles, so that means you're here to deal with me!" Magneto said with an "Oh," then looked at Ron, dismissively saying, "Kid, you want to fight me, right? Come on, let me see what you're capable of!"
Watching Magneto's arrogant demeanor, Ron showed no expression, merely smiled calmly, then spoke.
"You go first. I'm not used to directly attacking people; it makes me seem bad."
"Uh..." Magneto was stunned, then became enraged.
It was the first time Magneto had been mocked like this. Without hesitation, he directly controlled the steel bar in front of him to fly towards Ron, attacking in a fit of anger!
