Chapter 3128: Romantic

"This is the golden apple that extends life without side effects found by Schiller." Loki put the plate in front of Professor X.

"Without side effects?!" Professor X was also shocked.

In fact, having mixed in the universe for so long and dealt with so many long-lived species, it's not that they had no way to extend their lifespan, but the key is that almost all methods in the universe have side effects.

If you trade with a demon god, you must pay a price. If you use potions, you have to maintain them regularly. And if you want to use some strange props, you will basically bear a curse, or it won't last long.

Generally speaking, extending a few hundred years is no problem, but it's hard to say after that. Professor X and Magneto had also discussed that if the mutant situation still had no improvement when they reached their lifespan limit, they would pick the safest one to try.

"Golden apple?" Magneto's focus was here. He said, "The golden apple in mythology?"

"That's right. In the mythology of another distant universe, the gods exist, and the golden apple also exists. Schiller obtained the golden apple through some methods, and can obtain more later. This thing has no side effects. Eating it once is almost an infinite lifespan."

Magneto and Professor X looked at each other.

"Of course, it's not that magical. It can only help you avoid dying of old age, not avoid you from getting injured. If you get injured too much, or simply get killed by someone, it can't save you."

Professor X understood. The role of the golden apple is actually immortality, not invulnerability. After eating the golden apple, you can live forever if you are free from illness and disaster, and you can also be immune to most diseases caused by aging, such as heart failure and cancer. But if you get stabbed twice by someone and die, you can't blame the golden apple for not protecting you.

This might indeed be a bit dangerous for ordinary people. After all, if you live for a thousand years, you will always encounter a few accidents. But for Magneto and Professor X, it's nothing. Even if they encounter a car accident once a day, it won't kill them.

Professor X had to admit that he was moved.

"Damn greed!" Professor X cursed in his heart. Of course, he wasn't cursing Schiller, but himself.

But if the mutants were more competitive, it wouldn't be these two crouching dragons and phoenix chicks leading the mutants for half a century. But they had already led for half a century. This sunk cost was too high, and it was impossible to give up easily.

Professor X took a deep breath and said, "Alright, the mutants will try their best to help you complete this plan. I hope you have a foolproof plan."

Loki finally showed a sincere smile. He said, "Schiller has actually been preparing for a long time. This is the final key prop, because he knows that you won't refuse to relive the old dream."

Professor X didn't have time to understand what Loki's last sentence meant. He had already eaten the golden apple.

This piece of golden apple wasn't the small piece Schiller gave Peter. The two of them almost each ate one-fifth of an apple. The second after eating it, bright light erupted from their bodies.

The light dissipated. Professor X hadn't quite come back to his senses, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw a young version of Erik Lehnsherr.

Professor X suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

He turned his head to look at the glass in the office. Very good, a 20-year-old Charles Xavier.

Is this the so-called reliving the old dream?!

He knew Schiller had no good intentions!

Professor X really didn't expect that this thing wouldn't just keep the original state but extend the lifespan; it was directly returning to youth.

It's not that Professor X had any opinion on his young self, but the key is that his young face had no deterrent power. How could he lead the X-Men and those little bastards at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters in the future?

"If there are no accidents, your legs should also be fully recovered." Loki reminded, "The golden apple will turn all organs in the human body to the best state. Do you want to get up and walk a few steps to try?"

Professor X stood up in anger. Loki was a bit surprised, because someone who hadn't walked for many years, even if their legs were healed, should be a bit awkward when walking. But Professor X could be said to be walking like flying.

Magneto sneered. Can't pretend anymore, right?

Professor X could only sigh in his heart. He knew Schiller was giving him an excuse to let him stand up openly. The key is that he didn't stand up before, besides letting the young mutants be considerate that he was a disabled person and not to mess around, wasn't it also to make Magneto feel guilty?

Now it's good. The two of them can continue the fight they didn't finish decades ago. The person in front is the person from back then, and decades have passed, the person in front is still the person from back then.

"Alright, let's talk about business." Magneto didn't feel anything about his image. No matter how the appearance changed, the past could not be changed.

Several people sat down by the office window.

"Apocalypse and the New Skrull Empire have hooked up. Skrull intends to use Apocalypse's hand to stir up the internal affairs of the mutants. But how can this be connected to the Shi'ar Empire, and how to provoke the contradiction between the two sides?" Magneto asked.

"This has to be said about the mysterious Life Fusion Project." Thanos said. Professor X couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It seems this top-secret project is not so secret.

"The Life Fusion Project is a relic of the Old Skrull Empire, so the New Skrull Empire should inherit it. But now this thing has fallen into the hands of the Shi'ar Empire nobles. Do you think the Skrulls will let it go?"

"Since they want it, why did they..." Professor X stopped halfway. What else could it be? The replacement of the new and old regimes will always have a period of turmoil. At that time, the beasts who were driven crazy dared to sell anything.

"Since Apocalypse wants us to get the experimental product." Professor X said, "I guess this is the condition he promised the Skrulls. He helps the New Skrull Empire get the product of the Life Fusion Project, and the New Skrull Empire funds him and builds him into another mutant force."

"Sounds like the Skrulls win twice." Loki said.

"Apocalypse has no choice." Magneto snorted coldly, "He is too weak and cannot be mentioned in the same breath as the three major empires at all. If others are willing to choose him as a puppet, he should be grateful."

"Apocalypse knows he is powerless to face the Shi'ar Empire directly, so he came to the Andromeda Galaxy to poison, wanting to use the antidote to threaten us to help him do this." Professor X said, "But his plan has already failed, because the High Evolutionary, who doesn't know where he came from, dropped an antidote into the Andromeda Galaxy. His poison is already ineffective."

"Why did the High Evolutionary do this?" Magneto asked.

"No one present knows." Loki said, "I have vaguely heard the name of the High Evolutionary, but I haven't heard of any of his deeds. Perhaps we have to ask him personally."

"An otter claims that only she knows where the High Evolutionary is." Professor X spoke again, "She demands that we solve the Life Fusion Project."

"Solve? How to solve it? Destroy the experimental product?" Loki asked.

"I'm afraid it can't be destroyed." Professor X said, "That's not a prop, it's a person, and it has long been targeted by Schiller."

"Isn't it simple to pry open an otter's mouth?" Magneto said somewhat gloomily, "Especially a mechanical otter."

"Don't be like that." Professor X shook his head and said, "She is Rocket's old lover. We don't need to take violent measures. I believe she doesn't necessarily have to kill a living person, as long as we ensure that this project can never be implemented again. I'll go talk to her."

Professor X accessed Lila's brainwaves and told Lila the truth about the Life Fusion Project, which is that this thing doesn't really want to fuse the life of the entire universe, and Reynolds' birth was an accident.

Lila seemed to have put forward some conditions, but regardless, they still reached an agreement.

And very unexpectedly, the location information of the dimension where the High Evolutionary is located is not in Lila's mind, but on the spaceship she came on. The spaceship is inside a planet in the Andromeda Galaxy.

Magneto made a trip and moved the spaceship back. Lila took out a disk from inside, and Beast found a coordinate on the disk.

"Is it enough to open a portal here?" Professor X asked.

"Yes, the key is here." Lila handed over a small crystal card she took out from the spaceship and said, "Cast a spell on it, but you'd better send someone stronger. This guy might not reason with you."

Professor X looked at the people around him and felt a headache. Now Mr. Sinister and Apocalypse are hovering near the Andromeda Galaxy, and there is brainwave shielding equipment. Magneto must stay to protect him, otherwise, the two of them will definitely take advantage of the situation.

But if he let those young mutants go, Professor X really couldn't rest assured. He thought about contacting the superheroes, but was also afraid of affecting their battle, causing the mutants to take the blame.

Magneto looked at Loki and said, "You said Schiller dragged the superheroes. Why did he drag the superheroes?"

"To keep them from helping you." Loki said in a very light tone, "Mutants need to complete this thing themselves. You always have to complete something yourself."

Professor X was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The younger generation of mutants has made no progress for so many years. Who is to blame?

If all the responsibility is pushed to education, it is somewhat biased. But the existence of Professor X and Magneto, and even the existence of the Avengers, Kamar-Taj, Asgard, and other forces, is the important reason why they have been staying in one corner and stopping for so many years.

If there is anything in the universe, Asgard will solve it. If there is anything on Earth, the Avengers will solve it. Even when they arrive in the Andromeda Galaxy, these two old men can still carry the banner. If something happens, they will use the Great Summoning Technique. It would be a miracle if there is any progress.

Professor X couldn't bear it, but Schiller could. Not only did he drag most of the Avengers to his farm, but now he is also fighting Hydra in a dream. Doctor Strange, representing Kamar-Taj, was also dragged to the hospital by him, having performed more than 20 surgeries in a row.

Asgard doesn't even need to think about it. Loki is here. He said he couldn't help Thor, and the remaining forces of the Nine Realms would not participate in such things.

Schiller's move to draw the salary from the bottom of the pot is ruthless enough, Professor X thought. Even if the High Evolutionary doesn't kill people directly, this younger generation of mutants who have been lawless for so long simply won't negotiate. If they go up with their noses not like noses and eyes not like eyes, people will definitely give them some lessons.

Magneto seemed to have been dissatisfied with Professor X protecting the younger generation too much for a long time. He directly made the decision to let Polaris, Iceman, and the Prophet who came out of Legion's place go.

Professor X looked at Magneto with some dissatisfaction. The meaning of that look was, that's your daughter, you are so willing?

Originally, Magneto should have been immune to such looks, but he was facing a young Charles's face now. After a moment of hesitation, Professor X said, "Didn't the Charles and Erik from other universes not leave? Let them go together." ===== CHAPTER 3129 =====
