,

"Earls, are you ready to protect your group?"

While saying these words in a deep voice, Patch's eyes seemed to suddenly brighten up a bit, staring intently at Earls who was standing under the high platform, his expression of interest seemed to be waiting for his answer.

However, Earls didn't react immediately after listening to Patch's words with a lot of information, but was stunned for a moment.

"Big changes on the earth? Will there be many people like me?"

Although Earls also guessed that he was not the only special existence on the earth, the big bomb that Patch dropped on him at this time still made him a little bit overwhelmed for a while.

It's just that after the initial shock, Earls immediately regained his composure, looked up at Patch who was sitting cross-legged on the high platform, smiled secretly and then relieved.

"Even I have seen and touched the real gods with my own eyes, what else can I not accept?"

But even so, the doubts in Earls' heart at this time still haven't diminished at all.

Looking up at Patch, who was exuding holy radiance all over his body, after a little hesitation, he quickly called out to Patch.

"Your Majesty."

"Ok."

Patch responded lightly. He naturally knew what Earls was thinking at this moment, and said without hesitation: "If you have any doubts, feel free to ask me."

Earls nodded slightly, and then quickly opened his mouth to ask: "Your Majesty, according to what you said, although there are many people like me who will awaken supernatural abilities, I don't think there is any problem with it." , with extraordinary strength, they must have enough ability to protect themselves."

"And it's also difficult for me to figure out their specific number and capabilities. If there are a large number of them, my ability may not be enough to protect them."

"Earls, you are too self-deprecating."

However, after hearing these words from Earls, Patch shook his head with a light smile, and then said slowly, "I'm afraid you don't know what kind of terrifying ability you have now, do you?"

Glancing at Earls who seemed even more puzzled, Patch continued to open his mouth and said, "Although you are not too powerful now compared to me, in the eyes of ordinary people, if you show all your strength The power of the gods is probably not much different from that of the gods."

"Besides, the biggest reason why I asked you to be the guardian of those newly awakened little guys is not to let you protect them, what you really need to do is..."

Just as he was speaking, Patch's tone suddenly became a little more serious: "Organize and control them well, and don't let them cause harm to ordinary people because of their own abilities."

"Organize and control them?" Earls asked again in doubt.

"yes."

Patch nodded emphatically, and then explained to him aloud: "Earls, you can imagine that a very ordinary and ordinary person suddenly got a powerful power far beyond his imagination. How will it change?"

Hearing Patch's rhetorical question, Earls couldn't help but a thought that horrified him suddenly appeared in his mind. After ten seconds of silence, he said in horror: "Your Majesty, you mean, they are likely to... "

But before Earls could say half of what he wanted to say, he was interrupted by Patch's sudden voice.

"That's right!"

With a faint smile on the corner of Patch's mouth, he looked at Earls very kindly, and said aloud, "Earls, it's just as you thought."

"A person who was originally ordinary but suddenly gained great power, if this person is kind in nature, maybe nothing will happen, but what if this person is originally a person full of evil?"

"Then after gaining power, this person will inevitably cause unpredictable harm to ordinary people, the place where he is, and even the entire world because of his own desires."

"Earls."

Hearing Patch's call, Earls quickly raised his head to meet his pure and flawless eyes, and at the same time, Patch's next words came to his ears: "And I need you to help me get rid of these evil people, And lead those kind-hearted people to gradually adapt to their own strength, and guard the world with them. So Earls, I will ask you again now..."

"Are you ready to protect your group and the world?"

With eyes as blue as the sea staring at Earls standing below, Patch couldn't help feeling a little bit of anticipation in his heart. He was eager to know what choice this little guy Earls would make.

If he chooses to agree, then he will completely bid farewell to the life of a lone ranger in the dark night of New York for a while, and instead lead some people he has never met before and who are completely strangers.

Relying on the experience of the real mutant leaders such as Dr. X and Magneto in the memory of his previous life, Patch knew that in this process, Earls would definitely encounter countless difficulties and dangers.

All in all, this is destined to be a road full of thorns.

And if Earls chooses to refuse, then he will continue his unchanging but meaningful life, and he will not encounter unpredictable difficulties and obstacles.

Now, it is up to him how to choose!

Although Patch can indeed control Earls' thinking and let him make the choice he wants, it is obvious that this is not what Patch wants to see. If he really controls Earls' thinking and forces him to If he had made the opposite choice, all that Paqi is doing now can be said to be completely meaningless.

So Patch was waiting, waiting for Earls to say what was in his heart.

Earls frowned, and it could be seen that he was very entangled now. He was hesitating whether to accept or refuse. Obviously, he also knew what he would face if he accepted it.

It was silent for a long time, and there was no other sound except the laughter of the little angels flying in the sky, but the quiet environment still couldn't make Earls calm down, and he was still hesitating.

And Patch, who was sitting on the high platform, had been staring at Earls, and the time passed slowly without knowing it. Finally, Patch seemed to have noticed something, and the corners of his mouth raised a little unconsciously. , showing a relieved smile.

Following his gaze, I saw Earls, who had been hesitant before, seemed to have suddenly awakened, and his expression suddenly became resolute.

Slowly raising his head, Earls looked at Patch's gentle face, nodded firmly, and said aloud, "Your Majesty, I think I have made my decision."

"I decided to accept!"

Earls uttered these last words with such force that it seemed that every word took all the strength in his body.

After Patch heard him say this extremely firm answer, the smile on his face became even wider.

Nodding his head in relief, Patch smiled and said, "Very well, Earls, you made the right decision. It's just..."

Just as he was speaking, Patch's voice suddenly changed: "After you make this decision, you will definitely encounter difficulties that you have never encountered before. I hope you can persevere no matter what. The decision you made today, uphold your original heart, and I hope that when I see you again in the future, I can still see your firmness and determination at this time."

"I believe so, Your Majesty." Earls nodded emphatically again.

"hope so."

Patch showed a flat smile, and then said aloud: "Get ready to meet the obstacles you will face next!"

As soon as the words fell, Patch suddenly raised his right hand on his knee, and gently swung his wide sleeve with his raised right hand, and immediately saw a bright white light above the sky fall on Earl in the blink of an eye. Adams.

"Go! Go and meet your mission!"

As Patch's last voice fell into his ears, Earls felt that the world began to spin, his eyes were blurred, and light and darkness intertwined and turned around. The high-speed rotation made Earls feel a little disgusted, and closed his eyes quickly. Only by closing the eyes did this feeling decrease a little.

"boom!"

After the feeling of spinning disappeared and his feet were firmly on the ground again, Earls slowly opened his eyes.

Familiar streets, familiar dark corners, and in this corner there is a black guy who seems to be in a coma.

Seeing this scene, Earls couldn't help but quickly raised his hand to look at the watch on his left hand, but this look made his eyes widen instantly.

"9:11? How is that possible? I remember that it was already 9:10 when I knocked this guy out just now. After staying in that god's world for such a long time, it's impossible for only one minute to pass! "

While muttering softly, Earls glanced at the black guy in the corner.

However, after saying these words, Earls couldn't help showing a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.

"Could it be that what I just experienced was just my hallucination?"

The moment he blurted out, Earls quickly shook his head again, "It can't be an illusion, my memory there is so real, it can't be an illusion. And..."

"If it's an illusion, then where does my ability come from?"

Earls, who was freed from doubts, quickly regained his firm look before. His dark and bright eyes looked at the shining street in the distance, smiled and murmured softly again:

"Protect my group and protect this world? Your Majesty, I will do it."

After saying this to himself, Earls took off the hood on his head and walked into the streets shining with lights of various colors until he was completely invisible in the crowd.

...

On the other side, in the pure white and holy half-plane, after Patch waved a beam of light to send Earls away, his figure sitting on the high platform immediately turned into a shadowless figure that disappeared with a little light. trace.

Passing through the barriers of the world, when the first holy light appeared on a certain floor of the wizard tower, countless light spots gathered together in an instant, forming Patch's figure.

It's just that the robe he was wearing at this time has changed from the previous whiteness to pure black.

When the barefoot Patch fell to the ground, he quickly looked around all the corners of this floor.

Looking up, there are countless metal round platforms covered with strange runes scattered all over Datong, and these round platforms are filled with all kinds of weird instruments and materials.

"At present, a formal deal has been reached with Dormammu. Although I can't fully believe what He promised me, at least my original goal has been achieved."

"And the little guy Earls has already made his decision just now."

"Everything is ready, the next thing to do is to find all the people with the x gene on the earth and let them awaken their own abilities."

While talking, Patch walked slowly towards a round platform in the center of Datong, and reached out to pick up something like a pale silver metal ball on the round platform.

"Since it is impossible for me to run around the world to unlock talents for them one by one, the only tricky way is to create witchcraft tools that can find them all. As long as all mutants are found successfully, the next Everything will be fine."

Frowning slightly, Patch finished speaking these words without hesitation, and Patch suddenly froze in place, then suddenly lowered his head and looked at the ground, and called out a name in a low voice:

"Orianna..."

Patch's voice was not loud, but under the effect of special witchcraft, it passed through the barriers of the ground and space and entered the ears of Orianna who was on the first floor of the wizard's tower.

"Olianna, come and find me quickly, the Spirit of the Tower will tell you where I am."

After hearing Patch's order, Orianna's blue eyes suddenly lit up, she quickly put down the things in her hands, and walked towards the spiral staircase at the back of the hall.

...

"Owner."

Patch, who was staring at the magic metal slowly melting into liquid in the small stove in front of him, knew that Orianna had arrived when he heard the greeting and footsteps behind him.

"Ok."

After softly agreeing, Patch quickly pointed to a metal round platform not far from him without looking back, and said aloud: "Olianna, there are some soul crystals on that round platform, you can purify them and make them In powder form, it can be formulated into magic ink."

"I have already left the specific configuration method on the round platform. It is not the first time you have done these things, so don't make any mistakes. I will use the configured magic ink later."

"Okay, master."

Orianna nodded mechanically, and hurriedly walked to the metal round table that Patch pointed to just now, and quickly operated following the steps left on the table.

While Orianna was urging the magic flame to incinerate and purify the soul crystal, Patch on the other side was still staring at the magic metal in the small furnace.

The pale silver metal gradually transformed into a liquid form under the burning of the flame, and rolled down into the grooves that had been placed around the furnace.

But Paqi stretched out his hand and quickly sprinkled some black powder into it when the metals were transformed into a liquid state. Looking at his extremely painful expression, one could guess that these black powders must be some extremely rare things.

When the black powder fell into the mercury-like liquid metal, it quickly melted away, as if there was no mark that had ever existed.

A few hours passed silently, and when only the last bit of the fist-sized magical metal remained solid~lightnovelpub.net~ Paqi slowly straightened up a little, and made a sound towards him Orianna next to her asked:

"How is it, Orianna? Is the magic ink finished?"

"Master, it will be finished soon, there are still two final steps left."

After receiving Oriana's response, Patch nodded lightly, and said again: "Okay, don't worry, I don't want the slightest deviation in quality."

"Okay, master."

Another few tens of minutes passed, Patch was still staring at the magic metal on the small stove, and his right hand kept putting unknown black powder into the light silver metal that had melted into liquid.

When the last bit of magic metal about the size of a bean completely melted and rolled into the groove next to it, and the black powder in Patch's hand was completely used up, he finally straightened up and shouted: "Finally! All right."

Immediately, he quickly turned his head to look at Orianna, who was already serving at the side, and ordered: "Olianna, give me the magic ink!"
