Chapter 770: "Young Professor X"
A younger version of Professor X stood at the table, looking about thirty years old, impeccably dressed in extraordinary attire. He gracefully held a long wine glass, tipping it back with the intent to drain its contents in one swift motion—a feat far beyond the reach of ordinary individuals.
"So, a youthful Professor X," Jerry mused, quickly deducing the universe he had stumbled into based on contextual clues from his memory. It seemed to be 1962, a time when mutants had yet to emerge into the public consciousness, and the X-Men were still unknown to Charles Xavier.
"It appears we'll need to bide our time in this universe," Jerry remarked, his fingers grazing his chin as he contemplated the situation. According to his recollection, Jean Grey wouldn't be born until 1963, making it necessary to await her arrival before enacting their plan to harness the Phoenix Force and fortify the ring universe.
With his decision made, Jerry approached Professor X.
Even with Jean Grey's birth looming in the next year, Jerry knew he wouldn't be able to employ the owl's name locating method to track her due to the potent influence of the Phoenix Force within her.
However, Professor X possessed the means to do so. Jean Grey, besides harboring the Phoenix Force, was also a mutant with abilities akin to Professor X's own.
If Jean Grey were a mutant, Professor X could utilize a device to amplify his brain waves, enabling him to locate her.
Hence, for Jerry to swiftly locate Jean Grey upon her birth next year, he'd require Professor X's assistance, necessitating the cultivation of a favorable relationship with him. Fortunately, this presented no significant challenge.
As Jerry mulled over his strategy, Professor Moira made her way to see Professor Charles Xavier. She had been unable to reach her superior, Colonel Henry, as he was engaged in a meeting.
Seeking validation for her findings from Charles, a renowned expert in mutated genes at Oxford University in England, she began to explain her purpose.
However, before she could utter a word, Charles employed his telepathic abilities to glean all of Agent Moira's memories in an instant.
Charles Xavier had dedicated himself to fostering peaceful coexistence between mutants and humans, actively seeking out mutants like himself and the Transformers.@@@@
Thus, he readily agreed to Moira's request without hesitation. However, as they prepared to depart the bar to discuss matters further, a figure suddenly blocked their path.
"Good evening, you two!" It was Jerry, emerging from the bar's entrance.
Ms. Moira looked at Jerry with a perturbed expression for a while, "If you came in here after telling that much, then I believe you indeed have another purpose for meeting us."
Jerry's visit to Professor Charles had been a mere experiment, yet it unexpectedly bore fruit beyond his expectations.
"This isn't the ideal place for a thorough discussion. Let's relocate," proposed Charles, eyeing the bustling bar before leading the group outside to Moira's private car.
With transparency, Jerry divulged the insights he had gathered about the Black King.
"Coincidentally, I stumbled upon this intel through my own psychic abilities. When I overheard your conversation, I realized it might be of use to you," he explained candidly.
Amidst the conversation, Jerry unveiled further details about the enigmatic figure known as the Black Emperor.
Originally a Nazi scientist named Klaus Schmidt during World War II, his true identity was Sebastian Shaw.
Leveraging the Nazi regime's power, he orchestrated the recruitment and training of mutant allies to bolster his cause.
His ambition was nothing short of audacious: to incite a nuclear conflict among global superpowers, exploiting the ensuing radiation to expedite the emergence of mutants.
Through this chaos, he aimed to unite all mutants under his banner and establish a dominion solely for their kind.
