As Lin Rui follows Rogers to see the Alien Lifeforms, the X-Men are in a room on a video call with Professor Charles.
“In that case, Iceman, do you want to come back now? From what you said, you can’t recuperate very well over there now. And Colossus can also come back with you, let Blink send you back here.” On the big screen in front of Iceman and others, Professor Charles said in a calm tone after listening to their report.
Professor Charles doesn’t have much to say about Iceman and Mirage Knight finding Magic Cube together, except to worry about the injured Iceman and the Colossus.
“I see. I want to go back, too. But will anyone else be sent here when we get back?” Iceman nodded at Professor Charles’s suggestion. Still, he had his own problems.
The Magic Cube is now in Mirage Knight’s possession, and as long as it’s tucked away there shouldn’t be any more accidents.
But the Portal in the center of the base is different, and a lot of Alien troops could break out of it at any moment. When that happens, SHIELD and the League of Defenders won’t be enough if the X-Men aren’t fielding a fresh force.
“I know. I’ll let Hank lead the team. Plus, he’s really interested in Dr. Banner, and maybe they could become friends.” Charles replied with a smile on his face knowing what Iceman was worried about.
“Hank? ! What a relief!” Iceman is visibly relaxed when he hears that Hank is leading the team.
Hank, nicknamed the Beast, whose real name is Henry Philip McCoy, is not only an Advanced genius with a super IQ but his Mutant Ability to strengthen himself and protect himself allows him to put himself in many different situations.
Even though he is a scientific researcher, Hank can instantly become a combat member in many situations.
And this characteristic of Hank is very similar to Bruce Banner, both of them are top geniuses and scientists, and both of them can transform and strengthen themselves.
Although Hank is not as strong as the Hulk after his transformation, but his transformation can be completely controlled by himself.
“Well, Hank is also very interested in the Portal and the Magic Cube. It would be nice to let him know beforehand.” Professor Charles on the screen went on to say as apparently there was more to Hank’s visit than that.
“I see, then I will ask Blink to send me and the Colossus back immediately. Colossus is in great pain now and if he cannot be dismetalized then it may put his life in danger.” With a serious nod, Iceman says that he’ll be back soon.
“Then there is nothing else, if there is anything else, just contact me. If there’s a special case where you don’t have time to contact me then follow Mirage Knight.” Professor Charles gave a final reminder before disconnecting.
“Follow Mirage Knight? Okay.” This time it was Storm who answered. Although she was a little surprised, she still agreed. After all, after Iceman and Colossus went back, she was the only one here for the time being.
“Then, I’ll wait for you back at the School.”

Then, this time, the communication was disconnected. And Professor Charles has given Iceman and his colleagues a plan for what to do next, along with some necessary reminders. Crucially, it is important to replace the injured with new members.
“Iceman, do you know why the Professor wants us to follow Mirage Knight instead of Captain America in case of a special emergency? Isn’t Captain America better than Mirage Knight?” Storm asked Iceman feeling somewhat confused after Charles’ call was disconnected.
“This…… Well, I don’t know why the Professor reminded us to do so. But I think he must have had his reasons. And I think Mirage Knight is a good reference.” Iceman responds with a smile to Storm’s doubts.
Anyway, the relationship between Iceman and Mirage Knight is better, and when Professor Charles asked them to refer to Mirage Knight’s actions, which is of course easier for Iceman to accept.
Moreover, he was going back soon, so this worry should be left to Storm and Hank who is about to take over.
“Well, I’ll listen to Hank when the time comes. He will never have to look at others before making a decision.” Without getting the answer she wanted from Iceman, Storm had to think so for the time being.
“Come on, I’ll send you back. Our Allies can’t think that we are weak.” Blink spoke right after Iceman and Storm finished speaking to each other.
In the battle not long ago, Blink was suppressed due to her Spatial Ability. In the beginning, she broke out and cooperated with Rogers and others to kill the first guy who came out of the Portal.
But the other X-Men didn’t do so well this time, so Blink, who had always been indifferent, was a little worried.
“Well, can you directly send us back to the academy now?” Iceman asked after looking at Blink.
“The suppression on my ability has been reduced by a bit. Even if I can’t send you all back at once, a few more visits will suffice, let’s go!” As she said, Blink raised her hand to draw a Portal in front of her.
Hum~
In the next moment, a Portal that just allowed one person to walk in appeared in front of Iceman and others.
Sure enough, the other side is X Academy, so it looked like they were coming back more often. Blink then pushes Iceman and Colossus in wheelchairs through the portal.
…
Just when Iceman and the others contacted Professor Charles and Blink opened the Portal to send them back to the X-Academy, Lin Rui who followed Rogers into the secret room finally saw the monster that rushed out of the Portal before.
The few remaining monsters’ bodies were placed in very large alloy boxes. Although they were temporarily made, the refrigeration system has been installed inside to keep their corpses fresh for a longer period of time.
“Are these the Monsters that ran out of the Portal? There is nothing special about their appearance.” Lin Rui muttered in a calm tone after carefully observing the monsters in front of him which looked like an enlarged version of Earth’s hounds.
After several days of traveling to another planet and seeing many monsters, Lin Rui is no longer impressed by this “gentle” looking monster.
However, when Lin Rui said this, Rogers and others, who were standing next to him, twitched their lips, apparently not expecting Lin Rui to say this. They had never seen an alien lifeform, not even Venom, so they were surprised by what they saw.
“Let’s take a look at the Humanoid Aliens.” Lin Rui went on to say as he didn’t found anything about this lifeform in front of him in his mind.
