Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 671: Training Charles (Three in One)

It is said that gossip is human nature, and the amount of exclusive information in Luo Xi's mind is unheard of by ordinary people of this era.

You have to know that computer networks were only born in the 19s. The time point now is 60, and even the Cuban Missile Crisis has not yet completely erupted. Many people don’t even know what the Internet is.

People obtained information from the outside world through television and broadcasting, and newspaper media. The circulation and dissemination of information was far from being as convenient and fast as it will be in the future.

Charles naturally knew that the conflict between the two major camps was worsening. It had not even been twenty years since the end of World War II, and the Third World War, or possibly a nuclear war, was on the verge of breaking out.

Charles was born during World War II and living in the New World, he did not have a deep understanding of that world war that involved tens of millions of people.

But he understood one thing: when war comes and order collapses, vulnerable groups like mutants will definitely suffer.

No one in their right mind wants a world war to break out.

Especially for moderates like Charles who have been trying to integrate the mutant community into society, he couldn't imagine how bad the situation of mutants would be if the people in power in those countries knew that it was a group of mutants who had been fanning the flames.

Those witches who were burned at the stake in the Middle Ages will become the mutants of tomorrow.

"Stop him! We must stop this madman! Before everything is irreversible!"

Charles held Luo Xi's hand tightly. He suddenly felt that the hand of the mysterious man in front of him was extremely hard. His hand was pinched so hard that it hurt, but the other party did not react at all.

Is he also a mutant? Is his mutant ability physical enhancement?
Charles had some strange idea in his mind, but he couldn't help but secretly use his telepathic ability to test it out.

He swore in the name of God that he had never read Roche's secret thoughts. He just wanted to confirm whether this person was a mutant.

How could Luo Xi suddenly contact them, express a friendly and cooperative attitude, and tell them these secrets without any ulterior motives?

However, when Charles' mind just tried to enter Luo Xi's spiritual world, he felt an extremely powerful will blocking his attempt.

Charles had never seen a person's spiritual world like this:

Countless machines and gears are running in the spiritual world, and sacred hymns and solemn bells echo one after another.

If the soul of an ordinary human being is just a shallow puddle, and a psychic mutant like Charles is a lake, then Roche's spiritual world is an ocean with no visible boundaries.

Infinitely vast, infinitely vast, infinitely sacred.

If one were to use a word to describe what he saw, perhaps only the word "divine" could do the job.

"This is not what humans should have..."

Charles felt a sharp pain in his head, just like a firefly trying to compete with the sun, and the end result would be that he would be burned to death by the sun.

"what!"

Professor Charles only had time to scream before he fell to the ground and fainted.

"What’s wrong with you?!"

Riven was immediately frightened. She held up her brother's body to prevent him from falling to the ground.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Luo Xi realized that it was Charles' curiosity that caused the trouble, and he was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

He had locked up his spiritual world to prevent Charles from seeing the whole picture, but he did not expect that he could not bear the pressure and backlash, and his body activated its self-protection mechanism and he fell into a coma.

"Ms. Riven, it looks like you need to give your brother artificial respiration." Luo Xi said helplessly.

"Charles, he looks like he's passed out."

Riven's pretty face suddenly turned red. She was feeling anxious and nervous, but when she heard Luo Xi's suggestion, she felt like she had found her backbone.

Her chest heaved violently, and she finally mustered up the courage, pushed her blonde hair back, and immediately began artificial respiration into Charles' mouth.

After some first aid, Charles suddenly opened his eyes.

"Oh my God, what happened to me?"

Charles only remembered that he seemed to use his telepathic ability to try to test whether Roche was a mutant, and then the fuse in his brain blew and he fell into a coma.

"Raven? What are you doing?!"

Mystique was still lying on Professor X's chest, her arms crossed, pressing his chest in rhythm to keep him breathing.

"Humph!"

When Raven saw Charles throwing a tantrum as soon as he woke up, she immediately started to get angry as well and headed towards her room.

Luo Xi shook his head and looked at the two enemies with a smile on his face.

If the timeline developed according to his impression, Professor X would have Raven abducted by Eric Lansherr in the future, and then in an accident he would block a bullet for his agent confidante and be confined to a wheelchair from then on.

If you really count it, Professor X was badly tricked by Magneto.

"My suggestion is that you go and coax her, and most likely nothing will happen." Luo Xi smiled, "Also, can you really not see that Riven has a different attitude towards you?"

Charles massaged his temples with his fingertips to relieve the remaining pain.

"Of course I know. I'm not stupid, but I really don't have any feelings for her. She is my sister and a blood relative who grew up with me."

"Okay, let's not talk about her." Charles said simply, "Mr. Luo Xi should not be an ordinary person. Ordinary people can't make me faint completely just by probing."

Although Charles' brain vaguely forgot what had just happened in order to protect himself, he was still able to remember some clues after careful thinking.

"I've already told you, I'm just a traveler, I don't mean any harm, on the contrary I have a good impression of you."

"I come with good intentions, and I hope to receive your good intentions as well."

"I admire your talents. No matter from which perspective, they should not be wasted. Even if you want to waste them, I won't allow it."

Although Luo Xi's words did not exert any pressure, Charles still felt a natural sense of oppression.

Anyone who can say such words is definitely someone in power above countless people, and his words and actions can decide the fate of hundreds of millions of people.

Charles had seen the president's speech, and compared to the mysterious man in front of him, it seemed as stupid and ridiculous as a kindergarten child playing house.

If Charles still regarded Luo Xi as an equal when he first met her, now after some testing, he has subconsciously placed himself in a lower position.

Luo Xi always gave him the illusion that he was not human.

Luo Xi saw all of Charles' transformation, and he was happy to see him imagining himself.

It is true that he wants to win the favor of Professor X's mutants, but perhaps before long, Roche will confess his origins and purpose to everyone. Everyone should understand the difficult situation of the tenacious human race in the multiverse.

All human beings must unite as one and contribute all their strength to fight against the powerful enemies lurking in the warp.

What Luo Xi said was a must, which meant that anyone who disobeyed would be wiped out with thunder and lightning.

Compared to other people in the empire, Luo Xi is often described as kind and tolerant.

He fairly showed these humans their true situation, gave them time to think, and gave them the help they needed.

It was a generous gift, but only a one-time gift.

Mutants can get the treatment and status they deserve, but they also have to bear corresponding responsibilities and obligations.

Luo Xi did not like the rigidity, barbarity and corruption of the empire, but he had to admit that the empire did an exceptional job in strengthening its cohesion.

If the time given by Luo Xi is up and his generosity is wasted, Luo Xi can only do what he should do.

He could use iron and blood to forcibly reshape the humans here, but he didn't want to do that at the beginning.

Give more trust to human beings and believe in the extraordinary potential of this race that has not yet been revealed.

This is what Roxi learned from the Emperor.

"We must stop Sebastian Shaw's ambitions. The Hellfire Club he controls has many powerful mutants. If we want to fight them, we must have help."

Although they had only been together for a short time, Charles had already developed a sense of trust in Roche.

Charles understood that he was not actually good at fighting, and his abilities were more inclined towards auxiliary support.

His good-natured character and soft-hearted nature often prevent Professor X from performing to the fullest.

But Luo Xi perfectly filled the gap in this area. His vision, his decisiveness, and his determination were beyond Charles' reach.

"If you're willing, you can stay here and rest for a while. We can work together to find more helpers." Professor Charles invited.

A happy smile appeared on Luo Xi's face, that was exactly what he meant.

Before the underground base on Mars is completed and the Space Marines awaken, Roche plans to hide his identity, so staying at X Academy for the time being is also a good choice.

……

Workers at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters discovered that there was a new teacher in the school, an Asian man who was not very common here.

He always has a kind smile on his face, and his gentle temperament makes people feel close to him instinctively.

Even the workers and teachers affectionately called him Roshi from the East.

Luo Xi enjoys the feeling of living and working with ordinary people. This is the life pattern he is most adapted to, rather than taking on the responsibility of saving humanity.

The pace of life at Xavier's School for Young Gifted People was unusually slow, and most of the time, Luo Xi only needed to take a little time a day to solve problems, and then he could enjoy his leisure time.

For someone like him who comes from the Warhammer universe, this is simply the best thing in the world.

For the humans in that universe, dedicating themselves to the empire until death is the best outcome. Their souls will return to the Golden Throne and enjoy peace after death.

Luo Xi fabricated a legal identity for himself in the government's database. From now on, he had detailed growth traces and records of social activities in this country.

"Sebastian Shaw's signal appeared in Las Vegas, Nevada, and they intended to coerce a senior NATO official to further escalate the conflict between the two superpowers."

“But now is not the best time to get rid of Xiao, because Xiao is not the only one who has these ambitions.

Behind them is a whole interest group that intends to redistribute those huge benefits after the outbreak of the world war.”

"Xiao is just a spokesperson who was pushed out."

Luo Xi, Charles and Raven are currently in a room equipped with holographic projection equipment, sorting out the information they have collected.

During this period, Roxi joined Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters as a hired teacher, and the financial support that Roxi had promised to Charles also arrived as promised.

When Charles, who was wealthy and powerful, saw the full 100 million in his bank account, his heart beat faster.

In this era, the US dollar is still a real hard currency, and 100 million is already an astronomical figure.

The construction of the school was immediately unleashed, and many equipment and laboratories that had to be shelved or postponed due to lack of funds were quickly built.

Charles was numb to the financial resources displayed by Roche. He was just rich, but not to the point where he could create money at will.

As for Luo Xi, Charles only saw him snap his fingers, and then a huge sum of money appeared in his bank account.

Moreover, these funds are of clean origin and are completely legal and compliant.

The hyena noses of the IRS are incredibly sensitive, and even Charles doesn't want to be targeted by them.

This miraculous method shocked the young Professor X's worldview.

As for Mystique Raven, she wasn't interested in money, but she was extremely interested in the holographic projection in the room. "That being said, are we really not afraid of an accidental shooting?" Charles was still a little worried after hearing Rosie's decision.

No one living in this era is not afraid of the shadow of war. The two world wars have made all human beings witness the cruelty of war.

Especially this time, a nuclear war will inevitably break out.

He glanced at Riven who was watching a drama show via holographic projection in the corner, and couldn't help but feel relieved. His sister was so lively that he was often overwhelmed by her.

It would be better to let her stay put, at least she won't cause any trouble.

"An accidental discharge? If it happened, I would be saved."

"I give them the choice, and if they choose war, then I give them war."

Luo Xi's confidence dispelled Charles' uneasiness. In professional fields, one should listen to professionals, and Luo Xi was obviously much more professional than him in this regard.

He also didn't know where Luo Xi's confidence came from. Could he be a powerful mutant who survived from ancient times? Charles couldn't help but guess.

His guess turned out to be correct. Luo Xi was indeed an immortal who had lived for a long time.

"Charles, when you see a cockroach appear in the kitchen, there are 10,000 cockroaches hiding in the dark."

"Sebastian Xiao is just a representative of that group of ambitious people. As for those who have not been exposed, how should we deal with them?"

"They hid themselves very well, using numerous disguised identities and colluding with each other through a complex network of interests."

Luo Xi patiently explained that Professor X was still too immature, he was just a young boy with little experience.

"So what you're thinking is to have Xiao inspire the ambitions of those people behind the scenes, make them feel that they have a sure win, and then expose themselves?"

Luo Xi nodded in approval.

If he wants to completely control this planet and make humans and mutants unite according to his will, he must first clean up the cockroaches hiding in the dark.

He could not make the same mistake as the Emperor made during the Great Crusade. In order to speed up the process, the Emperor would often allow the original ruling class to manage the planets that voluntarily surrendered, as long as they paid tithes on time.

But the consequence of this is that many of the worlds conquered by the Great Crusade are in a state of vacillation and have not truly surrendered from the bottom of their hearts.

As long as the empire shows signs of weakness, the human world will immediately raise the banner of rebellion and begin to oppose the empire.

Charles immediately showed an attitude of being educated.

Before this, although he relied on his talent to slowly explore these principles, it was still difficult for him to truly understand the essence of them before they were truly applied in practice.

And Roche is also willing to cultivate a more outstanding Professor X. The kind and tolerant professor in the original timeline is good, but he is too indecisive and soft-hearted.

Luo Xi does not want these people to become his puppets, nor does he want this earth to become an empire where he has the final say. These are meaningless.

He also hopes to discover more comrades with common beliefs and ideals here, and to find more "Malcados" and "Waldos".

Only in this way can the power of the human camp become stronger and stronger, and when facing the dark gods from the subspace, there will be more forces that can help each other.

Roshi can even try to unite the Eldar and the Necrons, let alone these humans from different universes.

"In fact, my whole intention is not to let Xiao lure out more enemies hiding in the dark."

Luo Xi guided Charles slowly and let him think for himself.

"Not all intentions?"

Charles frowned, confusion expressed on his handsome face.

"Another important point is that only when Xiao demonstrates the destructive power and deterrence of mutants can mutants better fight for their own interests." Luo Xi pointed out.

Charles may be talented in other areas, but he is still too immature when it comes to political struggle.

He doesn't have any profound thoughts and only sees the surface situation.

"Only by showing the destructive power of mutants can the rights of mutants be protected?"

"exactly."

"Do you know what kind of people can thrive in this society and gain the respect and awe of others?" Luo Xi asked.

"You are a person of value. This value can include how much positive contribution you can make to society, or how much heavy negative contribution you can make to society."

"Mutants must demonstrate enough strength to be viewed positively by humans. Only by letting them see your destructive power can they be motivated enough to appease and win you over."

What Luo Xi explained was a completely new concept that went beyond Charles' worldview.

His pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had figured something out, and his facial muscles began to twitch uncontrollably.

"So, my original ideas and strategies were wrong?" Charles said with some disbelief.

Charles' original purpose in founding the school was to attract and gather mutants who were in difficult situations in human society, to bring this force together, and then to make their voices heard together so that human society would pay attention to them.

This is indeed a solution, but in Luo Xi's opinion, it is too passive and inefficient.

What Charles wants to do is essentially to force ordinary people to see the miserable situation of mutants, and then arouse their sympathy and compassion, so as to achieve the goal of improving the treatment and status of mutants.

His approach is fundamentally no different from those who hold up the slogan "I'm harmless, please don't hurt us."

But when a group begins to expect others to be merciful and provide help, they put themselves in a very dangerous situation.

What Charles didn't understand was that humans are greedy creatures. The more vulnerable and pitiful you appear, the less mercy and compassion you will receive, but rather more excessive oppression and enslavement.

Peace will survive if it is sought through struggle, but it will die if it is sought through compromise. This is a truth that not everyone can understand.

At least for Charles, this idea completely broke the inertia of thinking.

The professor fell silent, trying to digest the advice given by Roche.

He instinctively didn't like this overly violent method, but his reason told him that what Luo Xi said was right.

His original approach was just an emotional and unrealistic fantasy.

"Only when people like Sebastian stand up and make humans feel pain and threat, and humans' conventional means of dealing with them have little effect, will your value begin to show."

"Only mutants can better deal with mutants. When the value you show is greater than the threat you pose to humans, they will naturally attract and accept mutants."

"You can read more books that inherit Eastern wisdom in your free time. Chinese civilization is the longest-lasting and most stable civilization in the world, and it naturally has its reasons."

“There is nothing new under the sun. In fact, many things can be found in history.”

Charles silently remembered what Luo Xi said in his heart, and he even felt a sense of enlightenment.

Their current country may be very powerful, but in essence it is still a young country with a history of only more than 200 years. It does not have the foundation and accumulation of the country on the other side of the ocean that has been passed down for thousands of years.

"In ancient times, some people would actively 'raise enemies to protect themselves' in order to ensure their own interests and prevent the situation of 'when the birds are gone, the good bows are put away; when the beasts are gone, the running dogs are cooked' from happening."

Luo Xi mentioned many idioms and allusions, but Charles was a man with a super brain after all, and he was able to understand them with just a little guidance.

"If mutants want to improve their social status, they must learn to 'raise the enemy and protect themselves.'"

The worldview that Charles had spent more than 20 years building was shattered by Roche. He suddenly felt that his previous thoughts and actions were stupid, naive, and ridiculous.

He hopes that human beings can awaken their conscience and kindness. As long as they continue to show goodwill to human beings and express their willingness to cooperate, they can improve the original passive situation.

You are wrong, absolutely wrong. Those jackals are simply bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong. The weaker and gentler you appear, the more they will feel they can bully you and exploit you.

Charles is still very young. On the one hand, this leads to his lack of experience, but on the good side, it means that his three views have not been completely formed and can still be corrected.

At least under Roche's influence, Charles Xavier will no longer be the naive and powerful mutant leader he used to be.

"We are lucky to have a mentor who is wise enough at the beginning."

Charles thought to himself that he was completely convinced by Luo Xi.

From the time the two began to come into contact, to when Roxi showed his mystery and strength, to now analyzing the situation and formulating future strategies, Charles' initiative has been gradually grasped by Roxi.

He instinctively clings to a wiser and more powerful authority and changes his own inherent ideas.

Seeing Charles' attitude gradually changing, Luo Xi also realized that he was not far away from completely conquering the mutants of the X Academy.

There are different positions among mutants, and some of them may not obey Roche's will. For those who disobey, Roche can only abandon them.

"I really didn't expect that allowing Sebastian and his men to intensify the conflict between the two superpowers would actually be so beneficial to us."

"With the east wind they bring, we can also gain our own benefits."

Charles said sincerely convinced. He only saw the most superficial side at first and never thought that Luo Xi had so much profound meaning.

Now that he has figured it out, he feels that he is far from perfect.

"Do you think this is all I think?" Luo Xi asked with a smile.

Charles froze for a moment, his brain working frantically, trying to find the other ideas that Roche was hinting at.

But unfortunately, although he has come to his senses, he is still far from being as shrewd as Luo Xi.

"I told you before about Sebastian Shaw's true identity. During World War II, he was a scientist in Nazi Germany and used the alias Klaus Schmidt."

"He has committed many atrocities and attracted the hatred of many mutants. As long as you become an enemy of Xiao, you will naturally be able to win over those mutants who also hate Xiao."

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. That's the truth."

Charles looked as if he had suddenly realized something, and Luo Xi was immediately confused. This Professor X seemed a little unintelligent.

"There are many people who have an irreconcilable feud with Xiao, but there is one person who deserves the highest level of attention."

Charles tentatively said the man's name.

"Is this the man you mentioned before...Eric Lanshere?"

"Is he important?"

Luo Xi snapped his fingers, indicating that this guy finally got an idea.

"Eric Lansherr has the mutant ability to control metal, of course these are just superficial manifestations.

His real talent lies in his extraordinary control over magnetic fields, which is a very great and powerful force. According to the mutant classification, he and you can be classified as Alpha-level mutants. "

"And Sebastian Xiao shot and killed Eric's mother in front of him in order to stimulate his abilities."

Charles cursed Xiao in his heart as a beast. Shooting a mother in front of a young child was something that only a heartless devil could do.

Luo Xi's ideas were linked one after another, starting from the simplest point and even extending to many aspects that Charles had never thought of.

This made him sigh at his own short-sightedness. Was such an outstanding person really just a teacher in his school?
Charles couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He felt that he was not worthy of his position.

"Mr. Luo Xi, why don't you take my position as the principal? I am willing to give up my position and become a teacher."

Charles said this very seriously. He was indeed very pure and naive. He didn't care at all that the school he had put so much effort into would be taken away by Luo Xi.

The current situation is that mutants need Roche, not Roche needing mutants. Charles believes that this is the "big brother" he has found for the mutants, so he naturally wants to hold on to him.

　The balance of multiverse power is difficult to control, but this book is about Warhammer after all, so naturally it has to elevate Warhammer, all for the sake of the plot. It's meaningless to really dwell on who is stronger and who is weaker (Deadpool can still massacre the entire universe, and the biochemical virus can still infect the entire universe)
　　The setting of this book is the space of the universe. The power source of most bug characters in the universe will be in this direction.
