Pietro followed behind his sister with a worried expression, his eyes falling on Wanda's protruding belly from time to time.

Schiller calculated the time and found that the due date was very close. Why did she run over at this time?

"Where is Erik?" Wanda asked.

"Sleeping upstairs. Did the Professor tell you too? He really is, letting you come over now, what can you help with?" Polaris complained, "You are about to give birth, why don't you stay in the hospital properly? Why come here?"

"He didn't tell me," Wanda didn't get angry with her either. Since she was pregnant, her personality had become much gentler. She said, "Pietro let it slip. Can I not come over to take a look?"

"Dr. Schiller, what is going on? How could Erik get sick? We mutants don't get sick."

"Psychological problem."

This answer left everyone speechless. Their incomparably powerful abilities made them basically not get sick due to environmental influences, but it's hard to say if it's their own psychological problems.

"He has broken the life rules he followed for most of his life, so there will be some psychosomatic reactions," Schiller is an expert in this regard. He said, "Although Erik is far from reaching the level of autism, he does have some manifestations of Asperger's syndrome."

"The pathological principle is basically the same as autism. The pathological symptoms are lighter, but the principle is the same. Sudden changes in life rules will lead to a decline in mental stability and also trigger problems in neuro-functional aspects. Professor Xavier probably knows this, which is why he let you come over."

"Is it very serious?" Polaris asked anxiously.

Wanda and Pietro also looked at Schiller. Schiller was actually a bit surprised. He knew that the relationship between Magneto and his children was very bad, almost like enemies, but now it seems that it is far from that serious. His two daughters and one son are quite concerned about him.

"If he gets sick like this, what about the Andromeda Galaxy?" Wanda said worriedly. "The development was already stagnant. The first batch of mutants who went there were always protesting. I said this plan..."

"Keep your voice down. If it spreads out, the mutants on Earth will definitely have problems. More importantly, the US government will definitely stare at us."

"Professor X blocked the news, no one will know," Pietro said. "He let us come over, probably for this reason too. In case someone really knows that Magneto is very weak now and wants to do something, we can also protect him."

"He can't have an accident," Polaris shook her head and said. "He is the backbone of mutants now. If there is any problem, it will be completely finished."

Schiller listened to them talking and realized that it wasn't that their family relationship had been repaired very well. It was mainly that Magneto was old, and his three children were not young either. After so many years, most of them had stable emotional lives and booming careers.

They realized that even if they were unwilling to admit that they were bound interest communities with mutants and Magneto, Magneto was their backer and also the backer of mutants. Even if they only treated him as a group leader, they had to care about his situation.

Because once Magneto falls, the harm it brings to them is obvious. The stable life that was hard to obtain will have waves again, and the days that were hard to look forward to will likely never return.

Besides, the previous Magneto, although he was messing around, didn't really make any career. In the end, he was just a street wanderer and mercenary on Earth, and everyone didn't expect anything from him.

But now Magneto is the leader of the Andromeda Galaxy development and the person who contributes the most. Let alone whether the utopia can be built, at least the Andromeda Galaxy is a retreat for mutants, which is very important.

If Magneto hadn't taken the lead to fight for a new path for mutants, they would also be in fear on Earth now. So although many people hate Magneto's personality, they have to admit that he has made outstanding contributions to the progress and independence of mutants.

Now Magneto's three children can talk to him calmly, mainly because of this point. After all, the three of them haven't made any outstanding contributions to mutants either. Currently, they are still in the stage of working people, so even if Magneto is fierce, they can only endure it.

But speaking of which, Magneto is not a very vicious person. He is just very irritable and lacks emotional intelligence. In the presence of Professor X, except for being too silent, not giving people face, and not answering, there is nothing particularly annoying. After so many years, everyone is used to it.

The Brotherhood of Mutants arrived very quickly. When Mystique came in, Schiller thought it was a villager. She turned into a typical Mexican woman, black and fat, and wrapped in a local sunshade headscarf, but soon she revealed her blue skin.

And behind her, Rogue also followed in. Immediately after, Iceman and Wolverine followed. Everyone had a worried expression on their faces. Schiller almost thought Magneto was dying.

"I said there's nothing big. Professor X might just have read the brain waves and doesn't know what happened, but he didn't suffer any stimulation, just a psychosomatic reaction caused by the sudden breaking of life rules."

Schiller began to be a ruthless repeater, trying to persuade this group of mutants who were best at being emotional.

Until the movement from upstairs, they were going to rush up all at once. Schiller couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "Clark, stop them all."

Superman made a move, and Wolverine, even a thorn, was firmly blocked under the stairs. Only Schiller could go up.

Magneto woke up, his face looked much better, obviously the fever had subsided. Before he could speak, the hard-mouthed Schiller said, "Your daughter and son are all here. Wanda heard from Pietro that you were sick and ran out of the hospital with a big belly. Raven is also here, and Bobby and Logan..."

The expression on Magneto's face froze. After a while, he muttered to himself in a low voice, "This is why I wear a helmet. Charles just likes to make a mountain out of a molehill..."

"But you do have a problem," Schiller said. "Although I said before that you don't need to be treated if you are not uncomfortable, this kind of psychosomatic reaction has indeed had some impact on you."

Magneto was not as normal as he appeared. He frowned slightly and said, "I feel a bit dizzy, and my judgment of the magnetic field is not clear enough. What is going on?"

"Did you have this feeling when you transferred from Earth to the Andromeda Galaxy?"

"I had a cold for a while," Magneto said. "But that was mainly because the magnetic field of the Andromeda Galaxy is different from Earth, and I need a period of time to adapt."

"It's the same now, but it's not a magnetic field problem. You have always been fighting, and you have adapted to this way of life. Now you suddenly start to engage in construction and need to use a brand-new thinking logic to do things. Of course, you will feel uncomfortable."

"I'm not that fragile."

"Of course, so you just had a fever."

Magneto was about to say something, but suddenly stopped again. After a while, he moved his lips and said, "What medicine do I need to take?"

"No, you don't need to take medicine. You need to rest for a while, and then try to adapt to this dizziness, because it may accompany you for about a week to half a month."

Magneto looked at Schiller with some surprise. Schiller said, "Sorry, haven't I said that I am an autistic patient? Our spectrum is like this. Don't worry too much, it will be fine soon."

The expression of entanglement and hesitation on Magneto's face became thicker and thicker. He said, "Charles is a bit too much of a fuss. You go tell the people below that I'm fine and let them leave quickly."

Just as he said this, extreme chaos broke out downstairs. It seemed that someone insisted on rushing up, but Clark just blocked it and wouldn't let them. The noise became louder and louder, and even the floor began to shake.

Schiller showed a shocked and worried expression and said, "What are they doing?! There is a pregnant woman downstairs! I'll go down first, you rest well..."

Schiller had long known that Magneto would definitely not be willing to come down. He is a person who is unwilling to show weakness to others all his life. Even if he is moved inside, he will never respond to others' concern. Even if his body turned to ash, his mouth would still be hard.

So he specifically told Clark to make some noise to give Magneto a step down.

Sure enough, before Schiller walked to the stairs, a shadow flashed past him, and a low voice sounded downstairs.

"What's the noise?! Quiet!!"

The whole place was silent.

When Magneto was not there, everyone's concern was still very obvious. As a result, when he appeared, everyone's expressions were hesitant and very complex.

Compared with Batman's complete silence, Schiller still couldn't stand this group of people who were hesitant. Can't someone come out and care about Magneto's physical condition?

Silent for ten seconds, finally, the cheerful Rogue spoke, "That... the Professor asked us to come and see you. Are you okay?"

Magneto didn't answer at all, and didn't even look at her. His gaze fell on Wanda's belly.

As soon as his lips lifted, Schiller knew that no good words would come out of a dog's mouth. He didn't even need to move his vocal cords. Schiller knew he would definitely say something like "You are not a child anymore, why are you so irresponsible, running so far when you are about to give birth."

Wanda, as the Scarlet Witch, still had strong control over her body, so she wouldn't suddenly give birth unless she didn't want to—but it might not be the case after Magneto said that.

Although Schiller knew this was Magneto's way of expressing concern, he certainly couldn't let Magneto talk like this. Although it was difficult to change the subject, after all, he was the one who used this excuse to call Magneto down.

Who knew that before he could speak, Clark spoke first.

"What do you mean the Professor asked you to come and see him? Didn't you just say you were very worried about him? What does it have to do with others?"

"Lorna, didn't you just say that if he falls, mutants will be finished? And you, this one, uh... Mr. Sideburns..."

"My name is Logan."

"Mr. Logan, didn't you just say that if I didn't let you go up, you would beat me up? You are so anxious to visit him, your relationship must be very good, right?"

"Oh, Miss Wanda, long time no see. I forgot to greet you before. I know you are worried about your father, otherwise you wouldn't have run so far with a big belly, but this is too dangerous. He must be worried to death. Go over quickly."

After speaking, he also very politely separated the crowd and cleared all obstacles between Wanda and Magneto.

Looking at Clark's extremely clear eyes, everyone cursed in their hearts in unison, "Damn blue eyes!"
