Chapter 2355

In front of the instrument, Stark, Schiller, and Charles looked solemn.

Jarvis, who was operating the instrument, looked up and said: "It is impossible to read more data to a deeper mental space. His brain waves are hovering on the edge of losing control. Should we continue to try?"

Stark hesitated slightly, but still said: "No, turn off the machine first, we cannot take risks."

"In fact, this is already risky enough," Schiller stared at the data on the instrument and said: "Even if it is a brain wave interference test with a machine, it is not as controllable as you think. Once there is a problem, this building will be blown into flying ash."

Wanda, who was sitting on the side, stood up and said: "I am ready. I will contact you one by one later, and then I can leave a Scarlet Beacon in your bodies. This is the last guarantee for us to leave."

Stark looked at Schiller and asked: "Which personality do you plan to send?"

"I would like to group fight, but the data of the brain wave interference test is not optimistic. It is difficult to determine his mental bandwidth. Rashly entering too many personality traits may lead to his loss of control, so I plan to send the most capable one."

Stark swallowed and said: "The one who won't speak?"

"He can speak, just that he will never speak more if he can do it."

Schiller turned to look at Charles and said: "This time I won't go, which can leave a spot for an assault player for us, ensuring sufficient firepower. Then you will act as the brain of this team. Remember, this is just a reconnaissance mission, don't rush in rashly, withdraw immediately if the situation is wrong."

Charles nodded cautiously.

Looking at David who was shirtless in the inspection cabin, he, as a mutant, actually knew better than others that this was a quite dangerous action, concerning the safety of both mental and real worlds, so he couldn't help but be cautious.

More importantly, he found that although he was omniscient and omnipotent in terms of psychic ability, he had a fatal weakness, which was that he was really not very capable of fighting, his body was too weak, and it was easy for people to steal his home.

Because his mutant ability was too strong before, and the people around him were weak, Charles didn't realize this. After all, no matter who rushed up, he could immediately detect their thinking and control them.

But after coming to this universe, Charles found that his psychic ability was no longer enough to deal with the current situation. There were too many people beyond his expectations around him, and these people were all very capable of fighting without exception.

Must think of a way to strengthen his physique. Charles changed the first stage goal of his plan. Taking advantage of the many opportunities in this universe, it is the right thing to find opportunities to make up for his weaknesses.

So he was willing to take some risks, because if he contributed to the safety of this universe, it would not be too much to want to get some benefits later.

Charles thought carefully and said: "I saw his mental world last time, but I only looked at it for a short while. According to my judgment, his mental world should be divided into three parts."

"The first part is a city, it looks a bit like Paris, but I seem to have seen the shadow of London; the second part is a huge castle, I can't see what era it is, and I don't know the internal structure; the third part is a vast grassland, where two sides of personalities are fighting."

Stark pinched his eyebrows and said with a headache: "How can you crazy people be so creative? I thought a tower was strange enough. Is he planning to do something? Building a Hollywood in his brain?"

"These images may have their meaning," Schiller thought and said: "I think you should explore from the city first, because this may represent David Haller's past. We must understand him first before we can defeat other personalities in his mental world."

"Prepare to go," Wanda sighed.

"I will exist in the form of an information stream in both the Scarlet Power provided by Wanda and external communication equipment," Jarvis's voice echoed in everyone's mind. "I will upload everything you see as video materials to the host, and synchronize the analysis with Mr. Stark."

"If you have any questions, call me. I can query the database in the host for you, but please note that Scarlet Power will not be interfered with, but Wanda's brain waves may not be stable throughout, so when approaching a powerful source of power, disconnection may occur. Please don't panic. After the signal is restored, I will contact you immediately."

Several people nodded. Stark took a step back. Schiller looked at Charles and said: "Connect to my mental space first, my personality traits will set off with you."

They sat on the chairs respectively. Charles closed his eyes, and the storm of thinking began to swirl in his mind. The psychic ability spread to further places until all people's brain waves were gathered into one place, and then pressed the final switch.

With a 'swoosh', several people landed.

The scene of war as they imagined did not appear. They landed in a relatively quiet alley. Charles turned his head to see the figures of Schiller and Wanda, and also heard Jarvis's inquiry beside his ear.

A small red dot floated beside Wanda, and Jarvis's avatar appeared in it. He said: "I have read the fluctuation data of brain waves. It seems you have successfully arrived at the destination."

"I can receive the information David sent me, but for some reason, he cannot contact you now, so I will convey it on his behalf. He controlled this landing point because he thinks going to see the city where he lives might be beneficial to your investigation."

"We intend to do so, thank him for his help," Charles said, and couldn't help but look up at a huge shadow covering over, and said: "But I'm afraid we can't just look..."

Wanda and Schiller looked up together, and they saw a huge ray fish floating in the sky.

That's right, it's a ray fish floating in the air, a damn blue-eyed ray fish.

"Don't tell me this thing is also his personality," Wanda swallowed and said: "It can even not be human."

"No one said it must be human," Charles said, and Wanda couldn't help looking at Schiller, then whispered: "Okay, it seems I was preconceived, but I don't understand what this fish can do."

They soon knew what this fish could do, because this damn fish suddenly stretched out several gun barrels from its abdomen and fired lasers at them.

Scarlet Witch waved her hand, and a shield emitting red light enveloped them. Schiller looked up at the fish, seemingly estimating the distance between them, ready to strike at any time.

But this fish didn't look like it was aimed at them. It flew past in the sky, lasers shot on the ground, all the way with sparks and lightning, and then flew away like this.

"My God, what kind of life is he living?" Wanda said with some disbelief: "The brain is full of these things, what exactly is he thinking?"

But Charles's expression became dull again, and he shouted: "Run!"

Scarlet Witch subconsciously reached out to block, but a hurricane blew her up. Taking advantage of her inability to stabilize her body in the air, several wind blades shot over.

Charles, who was also blown up, reached out quickly. The person on the opposite side seemed to have received some interference. With a 'buzz', the hurricane and wind blades all dissipated.

Charles and Wanda fell uncontrollably. A figure first caught Wanda who was about to land, and then caught Charles, placing them both steadily on the ground.

"Oh, thank you," Charles thanked Schiller. Just now he saw it in the air, Schiller's limb coordination was surprisingly good, even in the air he could maintain stability, as if he was born to fly.

The dust blown up by the hurricane dissipated. What appeared in the field of vision of the three was a boy with lightning-shaped hair, with a malicious smile on his face.

The moment they saw the boy's face clearly, they also saw a blade light attacking him. Schiller held a bone-cutting knife and landed almost at the same time as the blade light.

"Ah!"

A knife slashed on the boy, almost splitting him in half. He let out a violent scream, flew back quickly, and the violent hurricane danced.

But Schiller had already withdrawn. He shook his head and didn't say anything, but the anomaly that happened afterwards had already made Charles and Wanda understand what was going on.

This boy's figure began to flicker and soon disappeared without a trace. The chaos brought by his superpower also dissipated, which meant he was killed, but he was originally very fragile, looking like a newborn.

Boom!

A violent airflow surged along the narrow street. The moment the transparent ripples swayed, Scarlet Witch waved her hand quickly and shouted: "Stop!"

The shock wave stopped one meter away from them. A woman in punk attire walked out, spat out a puff of smoke and said: "Newborn, not bad."

"What is Mad Fire?" Charles asked in surprise.

The punk woman sighed and said: "An organization in this city, and also the strongest organization. If you don't want to be killed by those powerful existences, it's better to find a backer."

"Wait a minute," Wanda was even more confused. She said: "Aren't you..."

Charles stopped her. He knew this was a good opportunity to get information, so he said: "We don't know what's going on, we were attacked as soon as we landed."

"This is very normal. That damn lunatic went crazy. Now everyone is in danger. Everyone wants to live to the end, naturally wanting to eliminate competitors as much as possible. You powerful newborns must be targets."

Before the words fell, a man wearing a jacket, looking like the male lead of a road movie, appeared at the end of the alley. He snorted coldly and said: "Don't talk big, Jane."

A huge red fat man appeared behind him, his body seemed to be surging with powerful explosive gas. The first thing Wanda did was to hurry and pull Schiller. This thing is not suitable for cutting with a knife.

"Simple confrontation and elimination is not a way out at all. We must swallow and evolve," the man wearing a jacket said: "Only by absorbing other personalities to become more powerful can we confront God and Satan."

Charles opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't say it. You say this mental world is rich, it is also quite rich, but it is really difficult for normal people to imagine how many love-hate entanglements were directed in a person's brain.

Of course, many mental patients have fantasies in their brains, but fantasies are fantasies after all, and phantoms break at a touch. Charles's psychic ability has the highest priority when facing most similar fantasies, but now his ability is telling him that this thing is real, not an illusion.

Charles's gaze focused on a fat red-haired woman in a floral dress walking over timidly behind the punk woman.

"I think we should retreat first," Charles lowered his voice and said: "I can't beat the guy behind, her energy level is scary."

Wanda showed a puzzled expression. She knew that Charles was the young Professor X, and Professor X's power is unquestionable, so she turned her head in surprise.

"You say that fat woman, I feel okay, I can almost handle it."

Then a man wearing a silver-white steel helmet and a silver-white suit walked out from behind the jacket man, and a little girl with golden hair and a pink dress walked out from behind the punk woman.

Wanda swallowed and said: "I think you are right, where did so many Omega mutants come from?!!!"

Both turned to look at Schiller.

Schiller's gaze was locked in the distance, standing on the top of the collapsed ruins, a female figure emitting soft blue light floating quietly there.
