Chapter 1082

Fear doesn't, but this must be built on the foundation that the person who created this fear is always there.

If Hawk is always here, then, perhaps after this time, not to mention ordinary people, at least Washington wouldn't dare to target mutants again.

But Hawk cannot always be here.

And once Hawk leaves, the deterrence is gone, and there will always be a small group of people who will use mutants as a topic again, and after they come to power, it will be another cycle.

Only the decisions made spontaneously by humans are stable.

This was also the reason why Professor X had to find a way to make humans legislate the Mutant Peace Act themselves.

Although this act might just be a piece of waste paper, at least it is progress.

"I will provide you with after-sales service."

"What?"

"Old Mo!"

"Let me introduce you."

Hawk looked at Professor X, whose expression became stunned again because of the arrival of Mephisto on the side, and introduced him with a smile: "Mephisto, this universe, uh... the Underworld Lord of your Earth, and he is my after-sales service."

Professor X looked at Mephisto, who appeared in a British Beatles style, and then hearing Hawk's words, subconsciously looked at Hawk.

"I don't understand."

"I will leave, but my good friend Mephisto will not leave."

Hawk smiled slightly: "After I leave, if anyone in Washington tries to incite the opposition between humans and mutants, then the demons of the Underworld will appear and take away their souls."

People incite opposition to mutants in the morning, and their souls are taken back to the Underworld by Underworld demons that night.

"How about it."

Hawk simply described his after-sales service to Professor X, then crossed his hands and supported his chin, looking at Professor X: "Still the same saying, I can't solve the problem, but I can solve the person who proposes the problem. Any soul that dares to try to provoke the opposition between humans and mutants will be harvested by Underworld demons. My good friend Mephisto will provide this support."

Mephisto, sitting beside Hawk and elegantly drinking the bourbon in his glass, looked at the gaze cast by Professor X and said with a smile: "Yes, I provide unlimited technical support for my good friend."

Hawk then looked at Professor X.

"How about it, Professor, any other questions?"

"..."

Professor X was silent.

Hawk had said it to this point, what else could he say?

Just—

"Life shouldn't be so..."

"There is a saying in the East: if the King of Hell wants you to die at the third watch, who dares to keep you until the fifth watch."

Hawk directly interrupted Professor X: "Here, Old Mo is the King of Hell. Any life that dares to provoke the opposition between mutants and humans will be immediately marked, and Underworld demons will come to the door. As for others, they will still be fine. So, you should leave, Professor X!"

Professor X stopped talking.

He looked at the calm expression on Hawk's face, knowing that this was the final decision, and no one or anything could make Hawk change this decision anymore.

So—

Professor X was silent for a while, then turned and left the small tavern in the Underworld without saying a word.

Hawk looked at Professor X's back as he left the tavern, raised his glass with a smile, and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

After Professor X completely left, Mephisto also withdrew his gaze and looked at Hawk.

"He is a saint."

"No, he is just a kind person."

Hearing this, Hawk shook his head and smiled, looking at Mephisto: "At first I thought his butt was crooked, but in fact, his butt has always been on the side of order."

Righteous order is one thing.

Orderly order is another thing.

Simply put, Professor X is used to the Federation, so he tries his best to maintain order with his ability under the Federation system.

So this led to many times when Professor X showed himself standing on the human side to oppose mutants.

Hawk also thought so before.

But when he heard Professor X evaluate the so-called Saint Gandhi as a hero, he understood.

"I thought you would kill him."

"It's a matter of convenience, but it's not necessary."

For Hawk, who had walked the path he came from again and whose foundation couldn't be said to be very solid, but could only be said to be 24K concrete, the current Professor X could be solved with one look.

Just—

Keeping Professor X is far better than killing him.

Hawk thought to himself, then looked at Mephisto: "I should go back."

This matter is over, it is indeed time to go back.

After all, this is not his home.

Hearing this, Mephisto's action of pouring wine paused, then resumed. After filling Hawk's glass with wine, he raised his glass, looked at Hawk, and his expression was sincere: "Congratulations, have a safe trip."

Hawk, however, saw a hint of relief through Mephisto's sincere expression and smiled slightly: "I'm leaving, and you're relieved too, right."

Mephisto didn't deny it: "Of course, once you leave, I will be the only strong person here."

Hawk laughed.

"Old Mo, you say, if you were this sincere when you were in the original universe, I believe we would become true friends."

"It's not too late now, is it?"

Mephisto clinked glasses with Hawk, meeting Hawk's eyes: "I welcome you here anytime. No matter when you come, there will be fine wine waiting for you."

Hawk smiled slightly.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Four eyes met.

After Hawk and Mephisto drank the wine in their respective glasses, they stood up and took a deep breath.

"Goodbye, Lord Mephisto of the Underworld dimension."

"Take care, Phoenix, Main God of the Phoenix Galaxy."

"Clang!"

A phoenix cry appeared, and a brilliant fire phoenix appeared abruptly above the Earth. The moment its wings spread, it covered the sky and the sun, as if the entire sky had been burned.

Jean, who was in the backyard of 521A Palm Street at this moment, felt a sudden movement in her heart, looked up at the phoenix projection covering the sky, and subconsciously stretched out her hands.

Coming into view.

The Phoenix Force began to gather in her palms.

"This is..."

"Dad's Phoenix Force."

Jean was stunned at first, then reacted, her eyes lit up, and her gaze swooshed onto her father Hawk, who was sitting in meditation under the Wutong tree in front of her.

Phoenix fire ignited abruptly from under Hawk, and in just an instant, it swept across Hawk's whole body.

In the blink of an eye.

Hawk was bathed in the phoenix fire.

Jean heard the movement behind her and turned to look at Wanda, who was walking out of the living room.

"Mom, Dad, he..."

"Hmm."

"The phoenix never dies, it only undergoes Nirvana!"

"..."
