Reincarnation Paradise: The Crucible.

Chapter 403 Sixty-Nine Mind Space is about to enter
The brainwave amplification room is different from the monotonous room with only one vertical corridor in the past. After being transformed by Magneto, there is now a wide metal platform in the pure white space.

In the center of the platform was a flat metal square table, on which Qin was lying quietly, still in a sleeping state. Around it were scattered in a circle a group of people including the professor and Xu Yue, who had just left the Sun Chaser not long ago.

"Charles, you should be very clear about what it means to rashly put your main consciousness into the spiritual space of others?"

Among the crowd, the only one who seemed a little unfamiliar was a tall female mutant, who was the foreign aid invited in advance. At this moment, her beautiful face was staring at the professor on the opposite side, her blue-gray eyes were slightly gloomy, and her tone was a little solemn.

On the other side, the professor who was adjusting the amplifier to connect to the helmet paused, raised his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"Of course, if the main consciousness is completely submerged, it is equivalent to a strong invasion. The power that can be exerted is extremely strong, but the risk is also the greatest. Even if the spiritual power of both sides is equal, the chance of one's soul being annihilated or completely devoured is as high as 80% when fighting away from home."

"Since you know this, then don't use this suicidal method. Even after being strengthened by the instrument, you may not be a match for Qin. What's more, the power called Phoenix is ​​essentially much higher than ours. This is not a problem that can be solved by simply piling up the amount of mental power through instruments."

"I know it very well, Emma, ​​but I have no choice. I caused all this, and I must end it in the end. Moreover, Jean is my student. Her abilities are more important to the entire mutant community than my existence."

As he spoke, the professor looked towards the stage in front of him with an extremely complicated look. Even though everything he did at the beginning was the best choice under duress, no matter what, he was the culprit who caused this bitter consequence, and he could not escape this responsibility.

After he finished speaking, the White Queen Emma on the other side did not pay attention to the professor's expression, but stared at the red-haired figure on the platform with a frown.

As a mutant of the same era as the Professor and Magneto, although she is not very famous, that is only because the Hellfire Club she controls has always been based on secrecy and covert manipulation.

Among more than 10 million mutants, her psychic ability can at least be ranked in the top five, or even the top three. In addition, her body has been diamondized to completely block psychic energy. Even if she is facing the professor, she can compete head-on.

But it was precisely because of her powerful psychic ability that she could appreciate the horror of the figure on the platform. Just by vaguely observing the tip of the iceberg of the power of the Phoenix, she had the illusion that she was about to tremble. This kind of power could not be something that could be produced by the earth.

To be honest, she didn't want to take any risks, but after communicating with the professor a few days ago, she also realized the importance of this matter, which concerned the fate of the entire mutant community.

She can clearly see the simple truth that if the skin is gone, the hair will have no place to stay.

"How confident are you that you will succeed?"

"Emma, ​​there is no such thing as inevitable success in the world."

As the words rang out, the professor raised his head slightly and showed a gentle and firm smile to the White Queen who was looking down at him, and continued:
"But no matter whether it succeeds or not, I can guarantee that your lives will not be in any danger during this operation. I will always be at the forefront. No matter how bad the situation is, at least before I die, it will not be a problem for me to successfully send you out of Qin's spiritual space."

"You can at least trust me on this, Emma."

"…If we fail, what should we do with Qin who is going berserk?"

After a moment's silence, Queen White continued to ask questions. After all, she had no choice but to be cautious when it came to matters concerning her life and property. She still remembered vividly the scene of the fire phoenix resisting a nuclear bomb not long ago.

Before the professor could respond to this question, Magneto, who was standing with his hands folded at the edge of the crowd, spoke first.

"Don't worry, if it fails completely, I will get rid of her immediately before Qin causes any damage."

Hearing this, the White Queen glanced at the several sharp spikes that suddenly rose from the square platform beside Qin, and then looked at Magneto, who had a cold expression behind her, with a rather suspicious look in her eyes.

If it was a last resort, in order to protect more lives, she believed that the professor might be able to make such a painful decision to sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice, but as for the old guy in front of her who worshipped the law of the jungle, she didn't trust him at all that he would take the initiative to kill Qin, a powerful force that could fight against the entire human civilization, because of concerns about risks.

Perhaps sensing the suspicion in the White Queen's eyes, Magneto's eyes twitched and he was about to say something, but a sudden sharp whistle in his ears interrupted his thoughts. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw several strands of purple light flying through the air and converging at Jean's neck, forming a thin purple ring that was close to her skin.

"Uh…"

After seeing Liuguang's true form clearly, Magneto raised his eyebrows slightly and quickly glanced sideways at a tall figure in front of him on the right.

"Before you were able to generate fire, and now you can manipulate metal. I'm curious what your talent is."

"It's just a minor measure."

After simply answering Magneto's question, Xu Yue happened to meet the eyes of the White Queen who was looking him up and down, and said calmly:
"I will take action immediately before the situation gets out of control. At this distance, even Magneto cannot stop the purple collar from closing rapidly. So, can you rest assured now?" After he finished speaking, Magneto narrowed his eyes slightly, but finally waited in silence. Logan, who was further away, changed his expression after hearing this, but just as he was about to speak, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his mind and curbed his anger that had just risen.

As for the White Queen, after looking at Xu Yue for a few seconds, she quietly withdrew her gaze and decisively skipped the topic.

There was no need for much proof. The countless murderous aura contained in the other party's body was enough to make her believe that Xu Yue would not hesitate at all when it was time to take action.

It is hard to believe that such a guy would be the professor's student. Compared to Charles, this mutant named Xinhuo is more like the former controller of the Hellfire Club, the Black Emperor - Sebastian Shaw.

"I'm fine, Charles. What should we do next? Are you, me, and your student going to invade Jean's mind? When will we start?"

"immediately!"

"I will be the first to enter with the help of the brain wave amplifier, and after resisting the first wave of counterattacks from the Black Phoenix, I will guide you and Xinhuo to enter one after another to assist me in sealing. Don't resist my power then. As for the others."

"Logan, if the Phoenix Force in Qin's body shows signs of rioting, you must immediately let Mary start to devour the energy in Qin's body to buy us enough time."

"Eric, protect the brain wave amplifier. It will be the key. Also, you should be very clear about the significance of this operation."

After instructing everyone one by one, the professor's last gaze fell on the silver-haired Magneto. He stared at him for a long time, until the other party nodded solemnly. Then he withdrew his gaze and covered Jean's forehead with his hands.

As the professor lowered his head and closed his eyes, he seemed to have a rumbling thunder slowly spreading from the old man's body. An invisible sense of oppression also expanded outward, gradually making the atmosphere of the entire spherical space extremely stagnant.

"Om~"

A few seconds later, a strange buzzing sound was heard throughout the space, and the square metal plates at the end of the field of vision began to tremble at the same time. The original bright white light dissipated, and instead, wisps of sticky black mist appeared. They rushed out from the gaps between the metal plates and rolled and spread like living things.

Soon all the surrounding space was covered by thick black fog, leaving only the metal platform in the center like an isolated island, quietly floating in the sea of ​​fog.

Looking around, the dark fog in front of us was swirling endlessly, and there was a faint red light flashing inside, as if a large number of ferocious beasts were lurking in the fog and staring at the people on the platform.

Madness, regret, silence, destruction, tyranny...

All the extreme negative emotions originating from Qin's spiritual space spread with the appearance of the black fog, and at the same time continued to impact the minds of everyone in the field. However, the buzzing sound that was just ringing everywhere briefly returned to calm. With the blessing of Magneto's vast magnetic force, as long as he took the initiative to hold on, the brain wave amplifier would not collapse simply due to overload operation.

"What... is this?"

The slightly trembling voice of the little naughty came from behind. She said that she was the one with the weakest willpower among the crowd. Now, just by being affected by the overflowing spiritual energy, she suddenly felt a lot of distracting thoughts in her mind and her face was distorted.

"It's just the residual emotions that have overflowed, but the amount is more complicated than I expected. How did Charles seal it back then? How could he have accumulated so many negative emotions?"

Looking at the boiling black fog in front of her, the White Queen in the crowd had an ugly look on her face. The amount of emotional residue that overflowed was so huge that it was hard to imagine what the scene was like in Qin's spiritual space.

The already fragile confidence was shaken again, but now the arrow is on the string and there is no room for retreat. The only thing to do now is to try my best.

"Logan, keep an eye on this little girl and make sure she doesn't have a mental breakdown."

"Xinhuo, right? Pay attention! The professor's mind is pulling us, let go of all your mental defenses immediately!"

The White Queen's stern shout suddenly rang in his ears. Xu Yue's eyes condensed slightly, and just as he took the initiative to release the protection of his mental barrier, he felt his eyes go dark and he instantly lost all perception of the outside world.

When he regained consciousness, a desolate town similar to Silent Hill appeared in front of Xu Yue.
