"Quick!"
"It's here!"
In the hotel corridor, Storm and Jean Grey, wearing the black leather uniforms of the X-Men, quickly rushed into the room with the open door.
As soon as they rushed in, they were stunned.
How to put it, as soon as they came in, they saw Magneto in a sorry state, kneeling before a young man with a face full of horror???
Are we seeing things?
Illusion, it must be an illusion!
This is Magneto, Professor X's lifelong enemy!
He actually knelt?!
Storm and Jean Grey were originally on a mission nearby, and just as they finished and were preparing to return, they unexpectedly discovered Magneto and Toad.
Jean Grey learned the cause and purpose of the matter from Toad through her Mind Manipulation Ability and wanted to stop Magneto.
The result...
Things developed completely differently from what they had imagined!
"Are... are You guys okay?" Jean Grey asked awkwardly, stating the obvious.
Samuel glanced at him, waved his hand from afar, and pulled Magneto over: "Are You asking me or asking him?"
"..."
Jean Grey's mind was completely blank at the moment, because this outcome was too unbelievable.
This is Magneto, how could he lose so miserably?!
Samuel ignored the sudden intrusion of Storm and Jean Grey, and looked at the utterly defeated Magneto with a sneer: "The old guy is quite agile, he knelt very suddenly, I didn't even expect it..."
"What did You just say, say it again!"
Magneto, feeling utterly humiliated, snorted: "You can inherit my mantle, lead the Brotherhood of Mutants to continue fighting for Mutants, You can become the New Magneto!"
New Magneto?
Storm and Jean Grey were startled again, looking at Samuel in disbelief.
Jean Grey had learned some information about Samuel from Toad's memories; simply put, Samuel was very strong, had many abilities, and Toad was very afraid of him!
They never expected that he could defeat Magneto, and that Magneto would even want to hand over the Brotherhood of Mutants to him and let him become the New Magneto?!
Samuel shook his head: "Not that sentence."
Not that sentence?
Magneto thought for a moment and said: "Child, I can be your father..."
Before he could finish speaking, Samuel's hand swung down forcefully, and with a bang, Magneto landed sprawled on the ground, having been severely thrown.
With his old arms and legs, that throw almost sent half of his body into the coffin.
"I called You an old guy, and You really think You're old! Be my father? How could You even say that!"
Uh...
From his appearance, the wrinkled Magneto could not only be a father, but was old enough to be a Grandpa!
"What are those expressions? Is it wrong to look young? Is it wrong to be immortal? You, tell them, when You saw me twenty years ago, did I not look like this?!"
Samuel pointed at Storm and Jean Grey, demanding angrily from Toad.
Toad nodded repeatedly; indeed, in the few glimpses he had twenty years ago, Samuel's appearance had barely changed at all.
Everyone understood that Magneto was beaten because of his sentence, 'I can be your father!'
"I find that You foreigners like to call people 'child' and say things like 'I want to be your father' at the drop of a hat."
"What's the matter, You don't have children of Your own?!"
Samuel was in a bad mood, and Magneto was equally depressed.
He just saw that Samuel was young, and given his own age, he used the role of a father to make him believe that he genuinely wanted to cultivate him; it wasn't the literal meaning at all...
This is also why Old Wan didn't understand China; if he had even a slight understanding of China, he would definitely know that aside from biological fathers, close friends, and certain specific situations between men and women, anyone who dares to let people call them father or dares to be a father will definitely be beaten badly!
As for certain countries that have a 'good life' and Westerners, they don't care about this much; whoever is strong is the father.
Recognizing a strong person as my father, I am proud!!!
Just as the atmosphere was awkward, Jean Grey finally remembered to introduce herself.
"You, hello, I am Jean Grey, and she is Ororo Monroe, You can call her Storm."
Jean Grey had red hair, a tall figure, and an hourglass shape. Her face was somewhere between an oval and a long shape, both charming and possessing a rational, profound, and intelligent feeling.
Storm had white hair and chocolate-colored skin. Although not as tall as Jean Grey, she was even more 'weapon-like' and imposing.
Her beauty was unquestionable; she was a true black pearl. However, her demeanor was somewhat heroic, sharp and exposed like a drawn sword.
Samuel looked at the two of them and waved at Anna, but unfortunately, despite their seemingly seamless connection, there was no telepathic understanding. It was Nightcrawler beside him who reacted quickly, appearing before him with a whoosh and offering the freshly poured red wine.
Samuel took a sip, swirling the glass, and asked the two: "Is Professor X doing well? The last time I saw him, he was still jumping around and trying to steal people from me. Twenty years have passed, is his head still that bright?"
How could they answer that? Should they say that the Professor's head was still that shiny?
While Jean Grey hesitated, unsure how to speak, Storm suddenly spoke: "You'd better be respectful to the Professor!"
Samuel raised an eyebrow, extended his hand, and Storm instantly flew before him, out of her control.
His sudden move made Jean Grey and Storm instinctively tense up. Jean Grey was fine; seeing that Samuel had no follow-up actions, she didn't directly attack.
Storm's temper, however, was just like her name, very explosive. After being controlled, she rolled her eyes without a second thought and directly unleashed her ability!
Rumble!
Thunder roared, a large gust of wind rolled up the dark clouds, raging as if about to burst in through the window.
"Disperse!"
Samuel spat out a single word in a rather chuunibyou manner. Instantly, the weather controlled by Storm directly went offline, unable to connect.
Immediately after, the thunder vanished, the wind stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the weather returned to normal.
Storm was stumped. She rolled and blinked her eyes repeatedly, trying to control the weather, but the result was exactly the same as with Magneto earlier.
"That's it!"
Magneto on the ground saw this and excitedly scrambled up: "Control Gravity, Control Magnetic Field, Teleportation, Control Weather! You are the Mutant with the most abilities I have ever seen, You are definitely the strongest Mutant!"
"Shut up, it's none of Your business!" Samuel snapped angrily, activating his Mind Power. Magneto's eyes glazed over, and he instantly fell silent.
Jean Grey blinked, looking at Samuel with a somewhat inexplicable gaze.
She could feel Samuel releasing Mind Power, but just as he released his Mind Power, she inexplicably felt a strange, indescribable sensation.
Her heart inexplicably beat faster, and it felt as if something in her heart wanted to break free from a cocoon!
