Simply put, it's like a DoS attack, one of the basic tactics used by Hacker, which uses a large amount of spam to paralyze the opponent's network or system resources.

If calculating pi isn't enough, then go for the infinite geometry of Mandelbrot Set and fractals, and calculate using double-fold geometry. If that doesn't work, try mathematical problems with infinite solutions using ternary or quartic geometry, or simply review the books from the Los Angeles Public Library.

Since my thoughts are clear, that's the biggest miscalculation on the other side's part.

Without even needing to use a second trick, the great Professor X's brain was practically smoking from pi.

It's true that you have strong mental power, but our physical bodies are different.

The Kryptonian, now back to normal, smiled smugly.

Henry also discovered that Professor X's mental attacks were actually a kind of forced synchronization of brainwaves, thereby controlling the opponent's brain and transmitting commands to their limbs.

The difference between myself and Professor X is that the latter has the ability to interpret brainwaves, thus knowing so-called memories and thoughts.

Could we then consider Magneto's and Juggernaut's helmets as designs that utilize the Faraday Cage principle, isolating internal and external electromagnetic interference?

So, it's not impossible for me to make a helmet to protect myself from Professor X. Even if I don't protect myself from this bald guy, there are plenty of Mind Stone users in the Marvel Universe that I need to be wary of.

It's said that a thousand thoughts can vanish in the blink of an eye. While Henry was still able to let his mind wander after Professor X collapsed, the other Xs...

The X-Men certainly couldn't just stand by and watch the situation develop.

They no longer cared who struck first; it seemed that Professor X had suffered the most damage.

So the most impulsive young man, Cyclops, pressed the switch on his eye mask, and a huge ruby-colored shock beam was immediately released.

Without a second thought, Henry Heat Vision back! The two clashed in mid-air.

This move truly exceeded everyone's expectations.

Storm immediately floated into the air, her eyes rolling back in their head, her hair seemingly floating in water. Ion discharges appeared around her, clearly indicating she was preparing to unleash a powerful attack.

Meanwhile, Quicksilver's thinking is rather simple. Having grown up in a single-parent family and received a emasculated version of the good-foe hero education from Professor X, his first thought when faced with an enemy is to find a rope and tie them up!

And that's what he did.

But when he found the thick rope on campus and ran back to the school gate, the very spot where the conflict had occurred, intending to quickly surround and tie up his enemy, Quicksilver witnessed something he never imagined he would see.

He quickly rushed past the man who was Cyclops with Cyclops. But the man seemed to have given up fighting Cyclops and turned to look at him.

The two stared at each other, one with a mocking look and the other with disbelief.

Just as Quicksilver was about to tie the rope around the other person's neck, he tripped! Henry, with his own speed, tripped him, causing Quicksilver to lose his balance like a schoolchild caught in a prank.

However, Henry didn't let Quicksilver fall flat on his face. Instead, he grabbed the rope, pulled it back, and threw it at Storm, who was still in mid-air. Struck by the human cannon, Storm flew away together into the distance.

Henry then reconnected with the Heat Vision, which had recoiled considerably, and continued the stalemate with Cyclops.

However, Henry's Super Brain still had room to consider one problem. Although this thing looked like light, it wasn't traveling at the speed of light. Since people could see the trajectory of the shot, it only meant that this thing was slower than a bullet!

If it truly followed the laws of physics, there wouldn't be time for me to play with Quicksilver. The moment I turned my head, even within bullet time, I would be instantly blasted in the head by Cyclops's Optic Blast.

Is this meant to demonstrate that he and Quicksilver are incredibly fast, having surpassed the speed of light? Or is it to suggest that these beam-like abilities are actually just a stream of high-temperature, high-energy plasma that only causes damage upon contact with the enemy?

Henry's Super Brain hadn't yet figured out the underlying principles, and the rest of the X-Men's actions hadn't stopped either.

Storm was sent flying along with Quicksilver, can be ignored. Hank McCoy transforms into a muscular, blue-haired, blue-skinned Beast, more than doubling in size.

He clasped his hands together, raised them high above his head, and leaped toward Henry, intending to deliver a heavy blow.

Henry, being cunning, used his Super Speed to grab Mystique in front of him at the last moment before he was hit.

Both the person who was throwing the object and the person who was suddenly about to be hit realized what was happening. But powerless to do anything, they could only stare wide-eyed, their mouths agape.

The Beast wanted to stop, but it was too late. The hammer slammed viciously into Mystique's forehead, sending her sprawling backward to the ground.

The Beast, on the other hand, ended up in Henry's original spot, completely bewildered as to why his target had changed.

However, this location wasn't exactly auspicious. Before he could even turn off his blindfold, Cyclops unleashed a Optic Blast that sent the tough-skinned Beast flying.

An ordinary person, if they were to grasp Cyclops's wrathful strike, might die. But this Beast, Beast, only suffered minor injuries. He was merely knocked away, and the inexplicable mistake of hitting the wrong person only made this genius somewhat resentful.

Cyclops wanted to continue his attack, but Henry wasn't going to play along. He used his Super Speed to get to Cyclops's side and ripped off his eye patch in one swift motion.

Realizing he had lost his blindfold, Cyclops was so frightened that he closed his eyes, covered his face, and crouched down. He was now useless.

At this point, the only remaining X-Men with combat capabilities are Nightcrawler, who can teleport, and Jean Grey, a telekinetic and Mind Stone individual.

Henry didn't consider the two cowards, or the seemingly Phoenix Force a mere alt Professor X, and therefore didn't launch any offensive attacks.

Of course, it's also possible that the red-haired woman standing there is another Mutants. After all, they didn't introduce themselves when they appeared.

Her appearance was also unlike that of the Nightcrawler, with blue skin and a tail, making her easily identifiable.

The identity of Phoenix was merely Henry's speculation.

As for those he had taken down, they were the ones who attacked first, so Henry felt perfectly justified in retaliating.

Oh, the only exception is probably Mystique.

She didn't attack him, but she still caused him trouble. So Henry didn't beat her up; he just used her as a shield and gave the Beast a quick squeeze.

The bewildered Nightcrawler seemed about to do something, but Henry held up a finger and shook it, stopping him. "Hey, pfft. If you don't make a move, I won't hurt you."
