Chapter 336: S:Glorious Big Event (XVI) In a space filled with white mist, a very abrupt building rose from the ground. It looked like Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, but with some differences. While Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters was mostly made of dark red bricks, this one was deep blue. Other than that, most of the structure was the same. Looking through the windows of this altered version of Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, the scene inside was surprising. It was not unexpected to see Iceman, Sprite, and Storm there, as they were members of the Xavier School. However, Polaris, Blink, Quicksilver, and others should have been closer to the Brotherhood of Mutants, yet they were also sitting in the classroom. What was even more surprising was that Stark was standing at the podium instead of Jean Grey or Professor X. Stark was standing on the podium with Bruce Banner beside him. Stark touched his temple and looked at the students below, sighing deeply. At that moment, Professor X walked in. Iceman saw him stride into the classroom and widened his eyes, but then quickly regained his composure. Professor X walked to the podium and scanned the students below. Most of the students who graduated from Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters were sitting properly, but the few troublemakers from the Brotherhood of Mutants were whispering to each other. Professor X cleared his throat and said, "As I mentioned when I entered your dreams, welcome to the mutants' school."Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m Polaris rolled her eyes, seeming to want to say something, but before she could speak, Stark said, "Yes, school. I really hope this place can make you useless mutants a bit smarter. Even if you can only go from negative to zero, I would still thank the heavens." His words were very straightforward and his tone was aggressive. Normally, the mutants who followed Magneto had bad tempers, but this time, Polaris and the others just snorted and hugged their arms, saying nothing. To understand why they had this attitude, we need to go back three days. After Captain America's speech at the United Nations, Nick gained the greatest power during this special period, and Project Insight was officially launched. Before the plan was officially launched, scientists such as Banner, Connors, Stark, and outside help Reed had already done most of the preparation, waiting for the on-site inspection. However, the problem arose during the on-site inspection. Going to Mercury was not as simple as finding something and bringing people there like landing on the moon. Stark had a suit that could move in space, and he prepared one for Banner as well. This suit could resist high and low temperatures and provide vital signs, ensuring that they could move freely on Mercury. But that was not enough. The space environment was unpredictable, and there were great dangers when entering space for the first time. To ensure the safety of these precious scientists no matter what happened, several mutants also went with them to Mercury. Polaris, Iceman, Havok, and Blink were four very powerful mutants, each with their own unique abilities that covered all possible dangers. In theory, this combination of brains and brawn should have no problem landing on Mercury. Originally, they had anticipated that the first half of the Mercury landing plan would go smoothly. The mage opened a portal and sent them to the surface of Mercury. However, the landing site was still a certain distance from the South Pole of Mercury, and they needed to walk there. At this point, Blink's ability came in handy. Her ability was to teleport people, and the advantage over portals was that the landing point was very precise, and there was no need for casting time, making it suitable for quickly avoiding danger. Stark's original plan was to have the mage open the portal at a distance from the South Pole, and they could also survey the terrain of Mercury along the way. After collecting enough data, Blink could teleport them to the pole. But when the data was collected, and Stark asked Blink to teleport them, Blink raised a very soulful question, "Where is the South Pole?" Stark widened his eyes and asked, "The pole, the South Pole, don't you know?" "I certainly know the South Pole. I've been to the South Pole on Earth. The penguins there are quite cute. But this is not Earth. How do I know where the South Pole is?" Stark opened his mouth to explain to Blink, but he realized that to explain the orbit and axial tilt, he would have to talk about revolution and rotation, and to talk about revolution and rotation, he would have to start with the gravitational field, and to talk about the gravitational field, he would have to mention the four fundamental forces... "But I want a perfect circle. What you cut is what? A slice of bread?!" "But I'm manually controlling it. How can it be so accurate?!" "I marked the allowable error above! Didn't you see it? The allowable error on the west side is even greater. Why did you go north?!" "This is not Earth. How do I know where the west is?!!" Half an hour later, Stark and Banner sighed again. Banner supported Stark's shoulder and said, "That's it. It's just preliminary exploration. It's already good enough to enter the bottom of the ring-shaped mountain." Stark didn't say anything and walked towards the hole created by Havok. ... Havok made a hole in the middle of the ring-shaped mountain. When Blink and the others were teleported down, Bruce exclaimed and sat on the ground because there was a protrusion where he landed, which tripped him. Stark turned around and sighed again, saying to Havok, "Don't you know the importance of safety operations?" Before Havok could reply, Stark said, "Come on, make a tunnel here." Then he turned around and pulled Iceman over, saying, "When he makes a tunnel, use your ice-making ability to create a support structure to prevent the tunnel from collapsing." Stark took out the map again. This time, before Iceman could say anything, Stark looked at the map himself, then threw it away and said, "Forget it. You can't understand it anyway. Simply put, he makes a tunnel, and you create something to support the tunnel so that we can enter." "Okay, no problem," Iceman nodded. Havok made a thinner beam and slowly began to dig the tunnel. As a tunnel appeared in front of them, Iceman squatted down and touched the ground with his hand. In an instant, the ice layer spread along the tunnel. At this point, Banner stopped him and said, "Your support structure won't work. It will collapse further ahead. According to structural mechanics, you must create a support point here, and here, this needs to bear the weight..." Although Iceman didn't understand, he had a better temper than the others. He did what Banner said, delaying them for several hours before they finally walked into the tunnel. Then it was a repetitive process. Stark searched for possible ice layers underground on Mercury while recording the underground rock structure. After a lot of grinding, they finally cooperated well. But when Banner and Bruce were collecting data in an underground cavity, Havok, North Star, and Iceman erupted into a fierce argument. They had just had a fight not long ago. If it weren't for Charles and Magneto temporarily reaching a consensus and letting them come together to perform the task, the three of them would still be cold war. And it goes without saying what the consequences would be if the cold war people were forcibly put together. Havok suspected that Iceman was trying to steal his thunder, North Star felt that Havok was completely unreasonable, and Iceman stood up for North Star. As a result, Havok felt that the two of them had betrayed him... Stark was busy collecting rock samples on Mercury when he heard a loud "boom" behind him. Then, the ice column supporting the underground structure began to collapse layer by layer. In an instant, Blink appeared next to the two of them and teleported them to the surface with a "whoosh." As they fell to the ground, a loud rumbling sound came from the center of the ring-shaped mountain in front of them. With a "boom," the entire center of the ring-shaped mountain collapsed... Havok, North Star, and Iceman crawled out with dirty faces, facing Stark's black-as-a-bottom-of-a-pot face. [Read /shanefreak, without ads and support the work.]
