Chapter 452 Magneto, who resorts to violence at the slightest provocation!
Qin also felt a little wronged: "I didn't even have a chance to say anything before you started fighting..."
Scott: ......
Look how messed this has gotten...
Now that the X-Men have understood the cause and effect, they are all in a bit of an awkward situation.
So, it was all a misunderstanding; they didn't need to fight each other at all...
Although it was only them who were being beaten...
"Sir, we are already extremely grateful for the chance to live again, so we are willing to go with you to your universe and contribute our own strength!"
At this moment, Professor X, as the leader of the X-Men, also wheeled himself over to Jean's side and expressed his stance to Toby.
With Professor X having said so, the other X-Men naturally stopped arguing and lowered their proud heads to Toby, choosing to submit.
"A wise choice..."
Toby grinned and tossed a green syringe onto Professor X's legs.
Professor X, taking the syringe from his numb legs, was taken aback: "What's this?"
Toby said calmly, "The Regeneration Potion is a newbie benefit that every employee who joins my faction can receive. It can heal any physical injury, even if you're left with only a head and a heart. As long as you have a breath left, you can be fully restored..."
"I don't have that many finished products with me right now. You can get them from the resource department after you join the company. This one is for you, you old cripple, to use first."
"I don't want to take a disabled person who needs to be pushed back with me."
"Old cripple?" Professor X was speechless at this title.
But looking at the injection that supposedly could restore his paralysis from the waist down, he still seemed somewhat hesitant.
It's not that I'm afraid it's poisonous, but rather...
Just as he thought of this, Toby, as if knowing what he was thinking, said disdainfully:
"Don't worry, Charles, anything made by my Parker Industries is guaranteed to be top-notch! This regeneration potion is far superior to the recovery potion the beast made for you before. It will permanently repair your damaged spine and won't make you lose your abilities."
"Okay." Professor X smiled gently.
What he was actually afraid of was not losing his great power, but losing his ability to protect the children.
And this is precisely why Toby values Professor X.
The Spider Clan needs a wise person, besides him, who can stabilize the situation and reassure everyone.
Professor X hesitated for a moment, then pleaded, "Toby, if our Xavier's School leaves this Earth, the other children with mutant genes won't be able to receive our protection. Can we take them with us?"
To this request, Toby grinned and said, "Of course, my Parker Industries isn't short of money."
"When we return to my universe, I will also build a superhuman academy far larger than your manor. And you, Professor Charles, will be its first principal. What do you say?"
"Of course, sir!" Professor X smiled as well.
Hearing Toby offer him such an important position, he could finally confirm that the other party truly meant him no harm.
After all, if someone had malicious intent, they would never entrust themselves with the most important responsibility of educating superhuman children during their formative years, right?
Professor X's gaze towards Toby changed, becoming somewhat admiring.
She may seem strong-willed, but she is actually very thoughtful!
With courage and wisdom, Qin might be right; this man is worth following!
Toby always had a faint smile on his face.
Toby was overjoyed that Professor X was offering to help him recruit mutants.
Given Professor X's prestige among these mutants, recruiting the surviving mutants should be a simple matter.
In this universe, mutants are seen as outcasts by ordinary people, but in Toby's eyes, each one is an invaluable treasure.
There are no useless mutant abilities, only useless people. Under Professor X's tutelage, he believes that even a useless mutant ability can create value that ordinary people can hardly achieve.
To this end, in order to search for all the mutants on the planet, Toby also used the power of the Mind Stone to enhance Professor X's abilities.
This allows him to cover the entire planet with his mental energy even without using the brainwave amplifier.
And so, under Toby's leadership...
They opened portals around the world, bringing together mutant children who had survived human hunting.
Finally... they arrived at the last known settlement of mutants on this planet.
It is also the only mutant sanctuary that is open to the world.
This is also the place with the most mutants in the world!
It was also the only place where mutants could breathe amidst the hunting of Sentinel robots after the Xavier's School was destroyed.
And its name is—Brotherhood!
Its leader's name resounds throughout the world!
His name is Magneto!
As Toby stepped out of the portal that had been opened on Brotherhood territory, everyone in the Brotherhood tensed up and became wary of him.
A figure wearing a dark red cloak and a dark red helmet slowly descended from the sky.
Finally, it stopped mid-air, looking down at Toby as he emerged from the portal, its tone flat:
"You're a mutant seeking refuge? Opening a spatial portal—not bad. Is this your mutant ability?"
Magneto glanced at the portal behind Toby, raised his hand, and the other vigilant mutants around him relaxed.
Toby glanced at the large group of mutants and nodded with satisfaction: "Hmm, not bad. Congratulations on being hired by Parker Industries!"
"Huh? What did you say?" Magneto was taken aback, then his tone, which had just softened, turned cold again. "Parker Industries? So you're a lackey of the human government?"
"Humans' lackeys? I'm not. To be precise, humans are my..."
"Shut up!"
Before Toby could finish speaking, Magneto interrupted him and pointed his hand at Toby.
Magneto clearly didn't want to hear any more from Toby.
Whoosh—
Two snake-like steel bars suddenly broke out from under Toby's feet and quickly wrapped around his entire body, starting from his legs, until he was completely encased in steel bars except for his head.
Toby's lips twitched: "As expected of you, Old Man. You resort to violence at the drop of a hat..."
"But sorry, I'm not going to play any bondage games with you, so..."
Clatter, clatter, clatter, clatter—
Toby's arms trembled slightly, and the thick steel bars on his body, as thick as snakes, were shattered into dust, just like wafers!
