Chapter 154
There is a big feast at Xavier College today.
All the people in the academy will attend this banquet, and those mutants who have left Xavier Academy but still maintain contact with the academy have also received the news in advance, and given the answer whether to come to the banquet.
Of course Rao was also invited.
It's a pity that he was filming recently, and Luo is a very strict director, and he was not allowed to ask for leave when filming important scenes, so in the end, he had no choice but to decline the invitation with great regret.
When Tony came out of the private lounge, he saw Carl and Lex reading the same book together.
The high-altitude sunlight pouring in through the window illuminated their respective half-faces, even for the "Cal and Luther guy's together"
Tony, who is vigilant and unhappy about this incident, also needs to admit that this scene is as good as a movie plot.
"Ahem." He deliberately coughed to break the harmonious atmosphere, and said without words, "We have arrived and landed immediately. By the way, what are you reading, so lost in thought?"
"Norse mythology." Carl answered him, "I didn't expect you to have these books on the plane, Nini, I thought you were the kind of person who didn't read anything but professional books."
"I don't read these. The books on the bookshelf are probably chosen by Pep, or the designer." Tony turned a deaf ear to Carl's nickname, "What do you see?"
"The gods will eventually die." Lex said gently, "We saw the most famous part, Ragnarok."
"Good, cool, I like the title." Tony said perfunctorily.
He sat down on the sofa opposite Carl and Lex, and the plane started to land. Carl had already heard the laughter under his feet, and couldn't help showing a relaxed smile.
"Don't cause trouble, Nini." He said to Tony during the very slight turbulence that humans couldn't feel when the plane landed, "but it's okay to cause trouble-I know Charles very well, and I cover you."
Professor X, who was receiving the guests who were invited to Xavier College, turned his head slightly as if he heard something.
"I think the protagonists of the banquet have arrived," he said with a smile to the beautiful girl standing opposite him, "would you mind coming with me to greet them?"
"Of course I don't mind, Professor." The girl replied.
Her voice is calm, slightly hoarse, and full of magnetism, but the femininity in it cannot be ignored, so there is a unique charm of hardness and softness, soft and hard.
As soon as the audience hears this voice, they can't help but think of gun armor covered with silk, or a blade wrapped with roses.
Professor X led her to the small parking area temporarily cleared by the students in Xavier College.
The situation at Xavier College is quite special. They don't hire anyone outside, so this banquet is completely full of students doing chores.
The school not only educates them with knowledge and common sense, teaches them to control and use their mutant abilities, but also pays attention to the establishment of their own personality and temperament. Professor X encourages these children to use their abilities more, and encourages them to know and understand themselves.
Therefore, for the decoration of this banquet, they also have their own ideas.
On the flat grass, a young man urged the branches and leaves of the vines to grow continuously, and a young girl solidified those soft branches, so the seemingly fragile but tough flower stands were erected, and after extending to a certain length, they were controlled by another boy Winding and knotting, his hands waved in mid-air, changing the shape of the vine as he wished like pinching plasticine.
"Stop playing!" said a woman dressed as a teacher among the bystanders, but there was not much blame in her tone.
She raised her hand and slid across the air. Countless seeds fell from her fingertips and evenly scattered on the uneven surface of the vine flower stand. In a second, those cheers turned into cheers.
Because in an instant, all the seeds are out of the shell.
They germinated, grew, and blossomed with such swiftness and eagerness that all could hear the rustling of veins and petals as they grew and rubbed.
Professor X led the girl through the long tables being set up in the courtyard, and the cold dishes, desserts, and blooming flower stands that were being placed on the long tables that had already been positioned.
"Oh." The girl raised her voice softly for this artificial spring.
She smiled.
These young people are obviously lacking in concentration.
This beautiful girl passed by them slowly, and walked out of the grand spring day. The huge flower buds cast soft shadows on her cheeks, and one could even feel the graceful folds of the petals on those shadows.
They all involuntarily stopped what they were doing and stared blankly at the face of the girl, who was obviously used to the commotion she caused.
She looked back tolerantly, then turned and left without hesitation.
After a long time, someone asked in a low voice: "... who is she?"
"I don't know." Someone replied.
"I heard... a new teacher will come to the school recently. The principal personally invited her. Maybe she is our new teacher?"
"My God." A girl murmured, "I've never seen such a beautiful person, she's like a living Venus."
"Venus is not appropriate. The beauty of Venus is the beauty of sensuality, but her beauty is more like Athena." The female teacher who led the group of students to dress up the banquet said, "She is a female warrior, a Valkyrie. Alright Now, children, let's continue our work and don't be dazed."
They continued to get busy, but from time to time, the young students would subconsciously look in the direction the girl left, as if expecting her to come back.
Professor X, who had gone away, made a joke: "Maybe I shouldn't let you teach them, Diana."
"That's a shame, Charles. I've done nothing wrong."
"Oh yes, Diana, you're just too beautiful to be born."
They stopped in front of the plane that had already landed. Someone pushed the long escalator and the cabin door opened. At this moment, Diana remembered to ask, "Who is the protagonist of the banquet?"
Unlike the other invited people, she was first invited to be a teacher at Xavier College, and after she had agreed to it, she found out that there was a banquet in the college today, so she logically decided to stay.
So she didn't know that Carl was the protagonist of the banquet.
Carl was the first to walk out of the hatch.
He raised his eyes and saw Diana standing beside the professor.
Just at this moment, Wonder Woman also looked curiously at the hatch that had been opened, waiting for the guest who was about to come out.
Their eyes met and they stuck together. Carl was very happy after seeing Wonder Woman. Diana didn't recognize Carl who had gone through a lot of disguise, but she always felt that this young man looked familiar, so she endured it. They couldn't stop staring at each other.
The mentality of these two people is very ordinary, but if you can't stand it, one of them is handsome and the other is beautiful and graceful, and the moment they look at each other will freeze them, just like the thunder that stirs the fire——
In the eyes of the outside world, this exchange of glances is simply love at first sight between the hero and heroine at the textbook level.
And Karl's reaction is also very consistent with the setting of love at first sight.
He jumped down the long ladder in three steps at a time, trot happily in front of her, stopped, and showed a shy smile: "I'm Carl."
Professor X, who was sitting next to Diana, was smiling, bewildered to find that he was being ignored by Karl.
Squeezing behind Carl to separate Carl and Lex, Tony, who was only halfway up the long ladder, stopped on the long ladder blankly, watching Carl who was excitedly introducing himself to Diana, with a dazed look on his face.
He subconsciously glanced back at Lex.
Of the three, Lex was at the end of the line, and he looked very calm.
Just calmly a little too much.
Tony dared to pat his chest and swear that Luther must be so angry that he was about to explode, but he looked very calm on the surface.
While gloating at the situation, he was also a little terrified: Luthor wouldn't go crazy, would he?
Luther wasn't the kind of person who exploded in temper. In fact, this guy had always been known in the outside world for his calm and unpredictable emotions, but now even Tony could feel that Luther was desperately enduring his emotions.
Seeing him looking at him, Lex even smiled politely and said, "Why did you stop? Let's go quickly and meet new friends who know Karl."
Tony shuddered shiveringly, not acknowledging that Lex's eyes made him feel very penetrating.
"I'm Diana." Under Carl's attentive and expectant eyes, the heroine smiled softly, "You like stars, don't you?"
"Yeah," Carl said.
During the brief conversation, Tony and Lex had already walked behind him. At first, Tony was still walking in front, but after a few steps, the positions of the two were reversed. Lex hurriedly walked in front of him, and quickly Stopped beside Karl.
"Carl..." he said, looking at Diana with anger and disgust.
But just after he finished calling Carl's name, Carl turned his head naturally, leaned over and put a kiss on the corner of his lips.
It has to be said that this behavior was very effective in appeasing Lex, he quickly threw Diana aside, raised his head slightly to accept the intimate kiss, and his entire expression relaxed.
Tony, who was lagging behind them and still looking forward to a good show, rolled his eyes when he saw this.
He felt that he could sympathize with Luther for a few seconds. He was obviously eaten to death by the little prince... But thinking about it in another direction, who among them was not eaten to death by the little prince?They were all just friends, but that guy was the little prince's boyfriend!
It's still the little prince who suffers, Luther doesn't deserve sympathy.
As for Karl's actions, the other two bystanders had different reactions.
Professor X raised his eyebrows high.
Diana's smile deepened unconsciously.
"This is Lex—I can call him Lexie, you have to call him Lex—my boyfriend." Carl introduced, "Lexy, Charles, my old friend, Diana, my new friend. "
"Hi, if you don't mind me calling you that, Charles, Diana, nice to meet you." Lex smiled.
"Hello, Lex." Professor X said gently, "Please allow me to call you that."
"Famous, Lex," said Diana.
She stopped looking at Carl and turned to Lex.
Lex stared at her too, remembering the few confrontations he had with the Amazon over the years, not sure if the other had a vague sense of who he was.
After a while, he looked away as if nothing had happened.
As for Diana, her eyes were gentle and unpredictable, as if there were many secrets in this world, and she already knew them all.
She just didn't feel the need to tell the truth.
