Chapter 4069 MU: The Superbody Incident (149)
"What are you saying, Eric?!" The White Queen jumped out of bed, glaring at Magneto. "You mean I'm fired? All the mutants on Earth are involved in this war, and I'm supposed to go back home?! Did you not wake up this morning?!"
“This isn’t a discussion, it’s a notification,” Magneto said. “You know, the Professor absolutely will not allow any problems to occur with the mutants in our universe…”
"What's wrong with me? Oh, I know, it's because I went to see a therapist, right? You think that means I'm out of control? That's ridiculous!"
“That’s not the problem. The problem is that you’ve made this public knowledge,” Magneto said. “It’s all over the base now. Everyone knows your mental state is very poor, and you even need a lot of medication to manage it. This has panicked many mutants, which is why we made the decision to send you back to Earth to recuperate…”
"It's spread everywhere?!" the White Queen exclaimed in disbelief. "That damned psychiatrist promised me he'd keep it a secret!"
"It didn't come from him. The professor has been in communication with him all along. Besides, disclosing your condition wouldn't benefit him either. You should think about who would benefit from it."
The White Queen paused for a moment, then suddenly realized, gritting her teeth and saying, "To hell with it! It must be that Selene! That damned bitch!!!"
"You mean the Black Queen?" Magneto narrowed his eyes and said, "Our universe's Black Queen didn't participate in the war. Which universe's Black Queen is she from?"
"Which universe could it be? The main universe!" The White Queen's anger was almost overflowing. She said, "Those people are complete lunatics and idiots! No one who hasn't had their head squeezed would spread such rumors!"
The White Queen was furious. She knew how powerful these rumors were. She was a psychic capable of going toe-to-toe with Professor X; if she got out of control, no one in the base would escape.
So her going to see a psychologist and getting medication would inevitably be an overreaction. Even if it was just to appease the panicked mutants, she couldn't stay in the base any longer; it was best to stay far away so that even if her powers erupted, she wouldn't hurt anyone.
But the fact remains that she had mental health issues and had gone to get medication is true, and more than one person at the hospital saw her. These kinds of things are like a ton of bricks – once you start, they're unstoppable.
Moreover, she had a large bag of medicine with her. Even if there was only one effective drug in it, not everyone is a psychologist. When they saw so many drugs, they would only think that the White Queen's condition was so serious that she needed to take so many drugs to suppress it.
To reiterate, the Hellfire Club is a bunch of people who harm others without benefiting themselves. The Black Queen knows perfectly well that spreading such rumors could cause unrest and lead to the White Queen's expulsion from the base—something that benefits her immensely—but she's doing it anyway. She believes that anything bad happening to the White Queen is the greatest benefit.
The White Queen was breathing heavily with anger. Magneto could only sigh and say, "Calm down, madam. We're from the same universe, and we won't let you suffer alone. Those people in the main universe will be dealt with. But as you know, Charles is always strict and will not allow any accidents to happen. We've already contacted the best sanatorium in New York for you and will cover all your expenses. Why don't you go back and rest for a while? When the fighting gets intense, we'll find a way to bring you back."
Although the White Queen was angry, she knew that getting angry was useless. She couldn't fight against the powerful Magneto and Professor X alone. Magneto and Professor X, having become younger, were even stronger. She couldn't possibly defeat the two of them plus their many subordinates, so she could only obey orders.
But she was seething with anger. The so-called "taking a step back" was already causing her breast hyperplasia; she was already troubled by her arrhythmia and hadn't had a proper rest in a long time. This anger only made things worse, leaving the White Empress's mind completely muddled.
When she saw that Magneto had arranged a spaceship for her, she became even angrier. She thought that Magneto thought she was unstable, which was why he wouldn't let her go through the portal.
But actually, Charles knew that Schiller had prescribed a drug related to magic mushrooms for the White Queen, and that this drug might affect the effectiveness of magical teleportation for several hours after consumption. He was afraid that she had already taken it, so he arranged for her to take the spaceship back.
The White Queen walked onto the spaceship with a cold face, watching it head out of the Andromeda Galaxy. She didn't even have the strength to curse the Black Queen anymore. Sitting in her seat, she felt her vision blurring.
But just as she passed near the supermassive black hole at the center of the Andromeda Galaxy, she spotted a group of familiar figures. She stood up and went to the window to look closely: "Aren't these the Hellfire Club from the main universe?!"
Instantly, both old and new grudges surged into her heart. The White Queen was furious; if she didn't teach that madwoman Black Queen a lesson, would she really think Emma Frost was a pushover?!
Meanwhile, among the Hellfire Club members from the main universe who were slowly approaching the central black hole, Sebastian, the Black Emperor, frowned and looked at the Black Queen, asking, "Are you sure that person can deliver a fatal blow to our universe's Professor X?"
"Haven't you witnessed his abilities?" the Black Queen said with a sneer. "Whether it was injuring the leader with a single blow or providing us with a plan to spread rumors, it's enough to prove his strength and intelligence. We can make him the new White King, instead of Magneto who's entangled with Professor X."
“You know now is not the right time to do this,” Sebastian said coldly. “You’ve really caused us to lose. The Brotherhood of Mutants and the X-Men won’t let you get away with this.”
"You're really short-sighted. What does it matter if we win or lose this battle? What matters is what advantages we can gain after returning to our universe. You don't really want Professor X and Magneto from our universe to lead the mutants of the multiverse, do you? If they have such a big voice, those mutant police who have jurisdictions wider than the Pacific Ocean will never let us off the hook!"
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Sebastian also fell silent. Although he didn't like the X-Men either, he was extremely wary of the mutants in the central universe, especially those two young old adversaries. If they found out what they were doing, they'd be in deep trouble.
However, Sebastian had indeed witnessed the power of the mysterious person the Black Queen had mentioned. You see, Professor X in the central universe possessed a brainwave amplifier, yet even so, they had no evidence that they were spreading rumors. Otherwise, they wouldn't have politely invited them over for a talk; they would have come knocking on their door.
Moreover, the Black Queen's words make some sense. The Hellfire Club is full of people who will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, and the main conflict between the X-Men and them lies in their methods of doing things. This conflict is irreconcilable, and the two sides will inevitably rise and fall.
Now, the Brotherhood of Mutants and the X-Men in the main universe want to gain a foothold in the multiverse. If they succeed, will the Hellfire Club still have a place?
Therefore, the best course of action now is to send them back to the Battle Realm so that they can't contribute in the subsequent battles. This way, they won't get a share when it comes to rewards and honors. Perhaps the Hellfire Club will become the representative of the mutants in the main universe, which would be a huge advantage.
“I’ll go see Phoenix alone later,” the Black Queen said again. “We have to pin Professor X’s death on Phoenix so that the other Professors X won’t cause us any trouble.”
“Isn’t this too risky?” Sebastian said again. “The Phoenix going out of control is too dangerous; we might all end up dead.”
"What's there to be afraid of? At worst, I'll just get a little injured," the Black Queen sneered. "Besides, I won't over-provoke Phoenix. I'll just plant a small bomb in her mind, and when she goes back to see her dear teacher, her power will explode and kill him."
Sebastian didn't say anything more. He knew the Black Queen possessed such abilities, and that she also had mind manipulation skills. However, the Black Queen's mind manipulation was extremely unique; it was based on magical power, not brainwave control, making it difficult for those skilled in brainwave control to detect. They had tricked Professor X like this before, and perhaps this time would be no different.
"It's best not to let it spread too far," Sebastian warned. "The people in the central universe are all lunatics. Professor X here killed almost all of the Flash and Superman on the other side. If you dare to touch him, Magneto will not let it go."
"I know, I know," the Black Queen said somewhat perfunctorily. "Those two old folks are so old and still acting like they're young, they're really clueless. But Phoenix from the main universe won't run over there, so it's impossible for her to affect them... Wait, she's here, you all go over there and wait."
The Black Queen flew towards the red-haired figure near the black hole. Phoenix, from the main universe, frowned deeply upon seeing her and said, "What exactly do you want, Selene? You don't really think you can beat me, do you?"
The Black Queen smiled at her and said, "Of course I don't think that way. Who can defeat the mighty Phoenix? I called you out this time simply so you could persuade the Professor, and then the Professor could persuade Magneto to join the Hellfire Club..."
“Our professor and Magneto aren’t close,” Phoenix from the main universe said bluntly. “They’ve been fighting for most of their lives, and their relationship isn’t good enough for them to introduce each other to jobs. Just give up on that idea.”
The Black Queen wasn't angry. She smiled and said, "How would you know if you don't ask him? Our club has very good benefits. At least he doesn't have to worry about his pension. Otherwise, would someone without citizenship have to send himself to a nursing home when he can't move around anymore?"
Although she didn't like Magneto, Phoenix clearly disliked the woman in front of her even more. She said with slight disgust, "You're utterly ignorant. I have nothing to say to you. Goodbye!"
As Phoenix turned away, a glint flashed in the Black Queen's eyes. Her magic had been successfully cast, and a certain kind of mental manipulation that would stimulate Phoenix was now lurking within Phoenix's soul in the main universe.
Although Phoenix says she has nothing to say to herself, given her character, she will likely tell the truth and let Professor X and Magneto make their own decision. Therefore, her first stop upon returning will undoubtedly be to find Professor X; once the bomb detonates, the out-of-control Phoenix will immediately send Professor X back home.
Just as the Black Queen turned to leave, she suddenly froze like a fish out of water. She felt an overwhelming force destroying her brainwaves.
"Do not!!!!!!"
