"Pop!"

Su Quan disappeared, and Jean Grey and the others disappeared as well, leaving only Ororo Munroe and Big Blink in the restaurant.

Ororo Munroe was stunned for a moment, hid the gold plate, and said solemnly to Big Blink: "I will definitely come back, wait for me!"

Big Blink smiled sweetly: "Okay."

Ororo Munroe turned and walked out of the restaurant, soon disappearing into the crowd at the market.

She first went to a reliable second-hand shop to sell the gold plate, exchanging it for a large amount of small-denomination Egyptian pounds.

Then she found all the homeless children, returned home, told them the news that she was about to leave, and divided the money among them.

Having arranged everything properly, she gave a few final, worried instructions before leaving with reluctance.

Returning to the restaurant, Big Blink threw out a teleportation crystal and brought Ororo Munroe, who was all alone and full of longing for the future, to a magnificent hotel suite.

"Where is this?" Looking at the environmental style that was clearly different from Egypt, Ororo Munroe asked curiously.

Big Blink said with a smile: "The United States."

"Th-this is the United States? We... we just got from Egypt to the United States?" Ororo Munroe exclaimed, saying with envy: "Your ability is just too magical."

Big Blink shook her head: "My ability is nothing; you'll know later. The abilities on Void Island are strange and varied; there are all kinds of magical abilities."

"And... if you want to talk about the most magical and powerful one, it's definitely the Master!"

Ororo Munroe nodded repeatedly, then asked in a confused, low voice: "Ma-Master doesn't seem to be here?"

"Pfft..." Little Mystique laughed and introduced them, answering her own question: "Do you know our identity? We are the Void Guard, and our main duty is to protect the Master, although the Master doesn't need our protection at all."

"Void Guard?" Ororo Munroe muttered.

"Wherever the Master is, we are! Conversely, wherever we are, the Master is!"

Little Mystique pointed at the closed suite door with her chin and said with a smile: "The Master and Phoenix are inside."

Ororo Munroe's face turned red instantly, and then she asked in a hesitant, low voice: "Is... is everyone... supposed to..."

Little Mystique understood and said with a chuckle: "Theoretically, everything we have belongs to the Master, of course, but even if you wanted to, it might not be your turn yet. Heh, there are many people waiting."

Big Blink patted Ororo Munroe and said with a smile: "You go take a shower first, and then I'll take you to buy some clothes; the rest can wait until the Master arranges it."

"O-okay, thank you!"

At this moment, Ororo Munroe was a bit like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden; everything she came into contact with made her feel curious and uneasy.

No matter what, the United States during this period was indeed the most developed and advanced country in the world; saying that she, who came from Egypt, was a country bumpkin was not an exaggeration at all.

After all, Egypt itself wasn't known for being developed and advanced, and the gap between rich and poor was huge; having grown up on the streets, Ororo Munroe had no knowledge other than survival experience.

The moon set and the sun rose.

A new day began.

Ororo Munroe woke up from the clean and comfortable bed, the warm sunlight shining on her, giving her a sense of unreality as if she were in a dream.

"Awake?"

"Then get up, tidy up, we're getting ready to leave."

Big Blink pushed the door open and entered, saying with a smile to the dazed Ororo Munroe.

Ororo Munroe hurriedly sat up, and while getting dressed, asked curiously: "Go where?"

"Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters."

The sun was bright, and the grass was lush.

On the lawn of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, a purple portal appeared out of thin air, and Su Quan and his group walked out of it.

"Who are you people!"

As soon as they walked out, they heard a vigilant question.

Everyone looked toward the sound and saw a red-haired girl holding books.

And then...

One by one, they revealed smiles that were hard to describe.

Those were smiles of people ready to watch the show!

"Is it her?"

"Looking at the hair color, it should be."

"She seems a bit... sturdy, and the scale is also very large; just based on this scale, it doesn't look like her!"

Everyone whispered, looking at the red-haired girl in front of them while looking at Jean Grey beside Su Quan.
