" Erik, I..."
" Charles! Stop trying to run away! Answer my questions!"
Erik grabbed Charles's shoulder, stared intently into his eyes, and demanded an explanation in a stern voice.
"Don't judge his life based on a single point of right or wrong."
Lilandra gently helped Charles up, stepped forward, glanced around at everyone, her tone slightly cold, and a faint aura of interstellar royalty emanated from her.
"The Earth has never treated him kindly; the internal strife among Mutants and the hostility of humans have always been something he has struggled to maintain alone."
When he stayed with you through the darkness, no one appreciated it; when he chose to embrace peace, he was accused of betrayal.
Shi'ar accepted his weariness, and I chose to protect his vulnerability; there was nothing wrong with that.
" Charles, look me in the eyes! Is she saying what you mean?"
Erik ignored Lilandra's words and continued to stare at Charles.
Charles closed his eyes and nodded slowly.
" Charles, you told me before you left that you were tired and wanted to rest, so I won't blame you, I'll just wish you both well, but..."
Erik abruptly changed the subject, revealing his sharp tongue.
"What did you do? You ran away without saying a word, abandoning the Mutants, abandoning your students, and abandoning me!"
"I knew I wasn't wrong about you; you are a coward!"
"Do you know what? Charles, if we hadn't run into an imposter, you would have come back today to find our corpses, not us alive and well, talking to you here!"
"Enough! Charles is already tired enough! And you still want to..."
Before Lilandra could even open her mouth, Erik glanced at her, and a thick, mountain-like magnetic field instantly enveloped her, pinning her to the ground.
"Ugh... Ah..."
Charles looked at Erik, " Erik, Lilandra is innocent, let her go."
"She's innocent?!"
Magneto Erik, almost laughed in exasperation; he pointed to himself.
"She's innocent? Then what are we? Deserving to be exterminated?!"
" Erik, it was indeed my fault, but please don't make Lilan bear the blame for my mistakes."
Charles looked at Erik, his face full of pleading.
Erik stared at Charles silently for five seconds, his face expressionless. He withdrew the magnetic field he had been pressing down on Lilandra and slowly uttered a sentence.
" Charles, I won't hate you, and I won't blame you anymore. You've chosen the life you wanted, so I wish you both well."
He turned to Thor and said, " Thor, I promise you, I will go to the Knowhere with my people. I should spend some time with Pietro and Lorna."
"Yes, I think Pietro would really love it there."
Thor raised an eyebrow.
Everyone looked back and saw a tall, blond man leaning against a wall, holding a small bag of sunflower seeds in his hand.
"You're the one who saved us?"
Li Qianhuan stepped forward and gestured to show their heights. She was actually a little embarrassed, feeling awkward thinking about how she had previously burst into tears in the arms of a stranger.
However, curiosity had clearly overcome her shame, and she walked around Thor once, then glanced at the Female Thor not far away.
"Why do I feel like you look a bit like that Mighty Thor?"
Li Qianhuan stroked her chin and asked.
"Because I am Thor."
Thor said calmly.
"Then why did you dress up as a professor?"
"It's simple, it's fun!"
" Thor, you only acted in this scene, didn't you?"
Betsy walked over to Thor's side.
"No, this scene wasn't originally in my script. As it turns out, the unknown is what makes it more dramatic, isn't it?"
Thor glanced around at the still silent crowd and spoke to Betsy.
" Betsy, you..."
Magik Illyana realized something and walked up to Betsy, asking her a question.
" Illyana, I am not Betsy from your universe. The Becky from your universe has already died at the hands of the Sentry. Thor and I are here to hunt down Cassandra."
Betsy explained everything in just a few words.
"Anyway, thank you for saving us, Thor, Betsy."
Cyclops Scott and Phoenix Jean walked up together, bowing slightly.
"Don't worry, saving you was just a side job."
" Erik is coming with me. Are you going to stay here or not?"
Thor looked at the group of Mutants; Erik, the top civil engineering master, was now his beast of burden.
For a hands-off manager like him, the more free cattle and horses he could get, the better.
"You said I would definitely like it there, what does it have? Why are you so sure?"
"Pietro asked."
"Oh, you mean that? I have dinosaurs and mechs."
"That's what Thor said."
Please let me go!
Upon hearing this, Pietro's eyes lit up, and he eagerly grasped Thor's hand.
Those are mechs and dinosaurs!
What man could resist such temptation?!
"Dinosaurs?! Thor, do you really have dinosaurs over there? Not models or anything?"
Sunspot Roberto, was also quite excited; these two things are quite attractive to young people.
"Don't worry, once you go, there's nothing I can't do, only things you can't imagine."
Thor patted his chest and assured him.
" Laura and I will go with you. After all, you're the one who saved us, not Charles."
Illyana pulled Laura aside to express her opinion.
" Bobby, let's go too! There are dinosaurs there!"
Rogue Anna held Iceman Bobby's hand and said...
"I'll do whatever you say, Anna."
Iceman Bobby looked at Anna and agreed.
"I'll go too!"
Li Qianhuan wholeheartedly agreed, and almost the entire younger generation of X-Men consented.
Bishop, Cable, Madelyne, Scott, Jean, Ororo, Clarice, and Logan and Peter in Utopia remained silent.
" Thor, are you inviting me to your country?"
Madelyne crossed her arms over her chest.
"Hmm... you can understand it that way too. They happen to be short-handed over there, so it's up to you guys. It's fine if you don't want to go; you can stay and fight the Sentry one-on-one."
Thor had no concept of the Way.
" Cable and I are going too. We've been fighting for too many years, we just want to find a place to retire."
Bishop said, a cigar dangling from his lips.
Ororo glanced at her comrade and nodded in agreement.
Clarice nodded in agreement.
Ultimately, everyone's attention was focused on Cyclops Scott and Phoenix Jean, after all, these two were veterans of the X-Men.
" Thor, are you sure there's no war, no oppression, and no discrimination against Mutants on your side?"
Scott was very conflicted; the professor's actions were indeed heartbreaking.
They've been fighting for so many years, it would be a lie to say they're not tired. Didn't you see the professor sneak off?
" Thor, on Scott's behalf, we'll go."
Phoenix Jean sensed Scott's hesitation and spoke up decisively.
"The zither..."
"No need to say anything, I know what you're thinking. Just like Erik said, the professor chose the life he wanted, so why can't we choose the life we want?"
"There's no need to fight for survival anymore; no more Deadman, and no more comrades will be lost."
Jean reached out and stopped Scott from saying what he was about to say.
"Alright, Thor, let's go too."
Scott's gaze hardened as he looked at Thor.
"Alright, get ready. To be honest, this is the first time I've ever done a large-scale population relocation project."
Thor was about to open the portal when he was interrupted by a metallic clanging sound.
Tap tap...
The Female Thor, hammer in hand, walked step by step to Thor, her blue-gold armor making a crisp clicking sound.
She ripped off her winged helmet and tucked it into her arms.
"If I go with you, I can see my sister Sylvie, right?"
