Ke Chen curiously used telepathy.
When it came to things he did not understand, he did not mind using his abilities.
After all, even Professor X could not escape his own curiosity.
Telepathy was, plainly speaking, mental power, and mental power could involve the soul. It was a very powerful force.
Ke Chen could not possibly leave such a powerful ability unused.
So he quickly discovered that the two were indeed not twins. One of them was an alien.
That alien had transformed into the woman's appearance.
The woman was an agent of no low rank. Naturally, she had come here to relax as well, while also keeping an eye on whether the wealthy Tony was up to anything.
That was all perfectly normal.
Agents needed to have fun too. Once, an FBI agent had been dancing in a bar and, caught up in the excitement, did a flip and dropped his pistol on the floor.
He hurriedly picked it up, only to accidentally fire it and hit a dancing man in the thigh. Fortunately, it was nothing serious.
If this had been Chicago, that agent would already have been riddled with bullets like a typewriter going rat-a-tat-tat.
This female agent had not expected to be targeted by an alien, much less that it intended to kill her to silence her.
Since he had seen it, Ke Chen naturally would not let the alien succeed.
Back when Captain Marvel Carol arrived, he had already been the protector of Planet C-53...
The female agent naturally noticed someone following her.
She deliberately stopped and turned around, only to see someone who looked exactly like her!
The sight shocked her badly. The next second, her neck was seized.
"Who are you?"
She asked with difficulty.
"I am you."
The "herself" gripping her neck said.
These aliens had to kill the original person before they could completely become her.
Otherwise, it would be obvious that she only looked the same, while her body was different.
Very quickly, she began absorbing the energy of the female agent whose neck she held.
The female agent instantly fainted.
Then, a voice came from behind her.
"You're not a Skrull?"
Ke Chen asked as he looked at her back.
He also controlled her, making her put down the female agent and walk toward him.
As long as something possessed a soul, Ke Chen's telepathic ability could be put to use.
"A psychic ability? What did you do?"
She was naturally shocked as well.
"State your identity."
Ke Chen could not be bothered to look into her mind, though it would have been easy.
"I'm a D'Bari. We didn't come to your planet intentionally."
She tried her best to explain.
Although the D'Bari possessed the ability for interstellar travel, they were not powerful in the universe.
Naturally, they could not compare to the Skrulls. The Skrull Empire was one of the universe's three great empires, incomparably powerful.
Though the D'Bari's ability was somewhat similar to that of the Skrulls, the fact that they had to kill someone to transform into them was an enormous flaw.
"You came because of the Phoenix Force?"
The moment Ke Chen heard her race, he knew why she had come.
"Yes. We didn't want to leave our homeland either, but the Phoenix Force destroyed our planet..."
The D'Bari before him thought there was hope.
"As long as we obtain the Phoenix Force, we'll leave Earth immediately."
"You should know how dangerous the Phoenix Force is too, right? It could destroy your planet in an instant."
"Yeah."
Ke Chen nodded at that.
But he was not worried.
If the Phoenix Force had truly destroyed the planet, even if it happened in the future, Ancient One should have appeared.
Ancient One, who possessed the Time Stone, could see what happened across any timeline in the future.
Since she had not appeared, it meant the Phoenix Force was not that violent.
The Phoenix Force had found its host, so it had become much gentler.
As for why it had destroyed the D'Bari's planet, all he could say was that they had been unlucky.
Ke Chen did not have the slightest trust in aliens.
As the old saying went, those not of our kind were sure to harbor different intentions.
Not to mention that they were not even from the same planet.
"Where are your people?"
Ke Chen asked.
"What are you going to do?"
The D'Bari asked doubtfully.
"We can cooperate."
Hearing Ke Chen's words, the D'Bari before him immediately revealed their hiding place.
Naturally, these aliens did not dare act arrogantly on Earth.
Earth's technology might not seem particularly advanced, but wiping out their small group would not be a problem.
"Thank you."
After hearing the location, Ke Chen said with a smile.
"No need to thank me. We can work together well..."
The D'Bari had not realized the danger until she saw Ke Chen's eyes turn completely crimson.
"Ah!"
She screamed, and then her body vanished like dust.
The D'Bari were just that peculiar. Their true forms were dreamlike, as though pieced together from fragments.
Ke Chen's Heat Vision could make them vanish from the world in an instant.
"Even if she was an alien, you were too cruel."
At that moment, a blonde, blue-eyed beauty stood behind Ke Chen with her arms folded and said this.
She had noticed the disturbance here immediately as well, but before she could act, Ke Chen had already made his move.
Ke Chen was not surprised by her presence.
"My name is Ke Chen."
He walked over and extended a hand.
"Mystique."
She extended a hand as well.
She was none other than the renowned Mystique.
She had thought Ke Chen was a mutant too...
"Why are you here?"
Ke Chen asked curiously, evidently already knowing her identity.
Mystique answered simply, "I came out to clear my head, and then I ran into this."
"Oh?"
Ke Chen released her hand without doing anything inappropriate.
Mainly because of Mystique's age...
Though she looked very young, that was because of her mutant ability.
In reality, she was not much younger than Professor X. Professor X was already an old man, yet she could still maintain her youth through her mutant ability and seemed not to age at all, making even Professor X a little envious.
Moreover, Mystique already had a child. Rumor had it that her child with Azazel was Nightcrawler. He had inherited Mystique's blue skin and Azazel's teleportation ability, so Ke Chen did not feel anything toward her.
He did not think age was a problem, but he truly felt Mystique was unsuitable...
Maybe because Mystique was too wild?
"Do you smoke?"
Mystique looked at Ke Chen and asked.
Seeing Ke Chen refuse, she lit one for herself.
In truth, she had always had conflicts with Professor X.
Although the Mystique of this world had not betrayed Professor X, she still differed from him in certain beliefs.
And as time passed, those differences only grew more intense.
A conflict had already erupted once before.
Phoenix's "death" had frightened Mystique. Although it was later proven to be a fake death, she still could not take it anymore.
In order to integrate with humanity, Professor X always sent mutants into danger. As someone directly involved, Mystique was naturally unhappy about it.
Ke Chen listened to her complaints without saying anything like, "With great power comes great responsibility"...
He merely said, "Want to come with me and deal with those aliens? Relax a little."
"Huh? You can relax like that?"
