[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle
Chapter 21 Chapter 21
Professor X has been trapped in a nightmare since he was cursed by Doctor Doom.
Many, many nightmares, those children he failed to save, those innocent people who died in the conflict between mutants and ordinary people, the best friend who eventually turned against him, and the heart-wrenching pain when the shrapnel pierced his spine.
He was absorbed in it all until a small, childlike hand grasped his.
"Professor, wake up! We need you!"
The child called him like this.
Pure light illuminated the darkness, and the golden robin dove into the cold water and into Charles' arms, grabbing his wrist and pulling him up.
The cursed worm that was entangled with Charles kept making sharp cries, but the moment its body touched the golden light that seemed to come from heaven, the body of the cursed worm began to disintegrate, the ice and snow melted, and spring returned.
He is really small.
Charles subconsciously hugged the child. The small body in his hands was light and thin, so thin that it reminded him of the kitten he once raised, as if it would be crushed if he used the slightest force.
The child had a pair of pure and beautiful green eyes, which were quiet and deep, filled with worry. The scene they were in also changed.
The surrounding buildings were all in gray, as if the entire city was covered in a layer of gray. Looking up, one could see the towering Wayne Building, the landmark building of Gotham. Next to it was a stone statue of a gargoyle. The continuous rain fell, wetting the tips of one's hair.
Charles wondered what kind of sad past this child had that would cause it to rain all the time in his heart?
The only thing to be thankful for is that in this thin rain curtain, one can vaguely see a ray of light falling from the clouds in the sky.
Charles quickly realized that he was actually standing, which allowed him to look down at the child.
Jason looked up at the mutant leader with baby blue eyes and said again: "Professor X, you should wake up. Someone out there is using your abilities to do very bad things. Now you are the only one who can turn the situation around."
"Child, don't be impatient."
Charles squatted down and said gently, "I've heard your voice, let's go."
The moment he left the spiritual world, countless images fragmented into Charles' mind, including his father's violent scolding and beatings, his mother's dazed eyes immersed in white powder, his neighbor's sister's last farewell before her death, and almost endless hunger, cold, hesitation, and the yearning for hope when looking up at the sky.
There was also pain in the abdomen that felt like it was being stabbed by a knife, and dull pain in the chest and abdomen with every breath. It made people wonder how a person with such pain could still stand and move.
He opened his eyes with difficulty and moved his mouth, but could hardly make a sound and his throat felt burning.
Someone lifted up his upper body and fed him two sips of water. Charles coughed a few times, and a clear green appeared in his eyes. The boy who supported him was wearing a red, yellow and green uniform and a domino mask that covered half of his face. He easily recognized that this was the attire that the Robins around the Justice League consultants would wear.
"Are you Robin?"
Jason breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I'm Robin, are you okay?"
Charles subconsciously smiled the way he usually does when comforting a child: "It couldn't be better. After sleeping for so long, I finally feel relaxed. Thank you for waking me up."
Phantom Cat walked over to them, apologized to Charles, and then shouted "Hold down the professor!"
Kurt and Jason held down Charles' limbs together. Charles was a little confused, and saw Katie reaching out her hand with a tense expression and reaching into his chest.
Although he knew that Phantom Flame could penetrate many things, this was the first time he saw her penetrate a person. Charles felt very strange at that moment, and then he saw Katie take something out of her body.
Well, that's a bomb.
Then Little Robin took out another instrument and scanned Charles, nodding: "Okay, now there is no special metal reaction on his body."
Night Walker and Phantom Cat breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They had originally wanted to take the professor away when they saw him, but Robin, who was from the Bat family, took out an instrument to scan the man first, and then found that there was something that looked like a bomb inside the professor's body.
Thank goodness for his caution, otherwise the professor would have exploded.
And thanks to little girl Katie, her ability was just right to take the bomb out, otherwise they would be trapped here.
Cotla grabbed his friends' hands: "Okay, let's get out of here now."
Then with a blink of an eye, the four figures disappeared from the spot.
From the moment he met little Robin, Professor X felt that the scene around him had changed. It was like he was lying in a curse, and then little Robin suddenly appeared and pulled him out of the nightmare, and then the dark blue night walker boy took him to a small container, which contained bandages, medicines, food, new clothes and a flying alien dog.
Very fairy-tale and dreamy.
This container, which can be regarded as a small safe house, is also one of Batman's backup plans. If their rescue fails or even leads to some immeasurable consequences, Robin's task is to avoid the enemy's sight as much as possible, search for surviving superheroes and bring them here.
But now the key figure in the reversal of good and evil - Professor X has arrived here first. Jason took out the oral nutrient solution from the medical box and handed it to Charles, and also got a wet towel to wipe the professor's face.
After all, during the days when he was unconscious, the enemies were not kind enough to shave or wipe the professor's body. At most, they could only ensure that he did not die. Jason put himself in the professor's shoes and felt that he must be very uncomfortable now, so it would be better to wipe his body to make him feel better.
Charles smiled and thanked him, "Thank you, Robin, you are so thoughtful."
His eyes swept across Little Robin's chest and abdomen without leaving a trace. Recalling the pain he felt before, he said, "I'm fine. You can rest for a while."
Jason shook his head. "I'm afraid we can't rest now, Professor. Can you bring back the distorted good and evil now? Doctor Doom and Hydra used your brain waves to create machines that distort good and evil, and manipulated many superheroes, turning them into villains. Now Batman is fighting them."
He squatted in front of Professor X and begged, "I know you just woke up and are still very weak, but if possible, I would like to ask you to bring back the original Superman, Wonder Woman, and those heroes who have been turned from good to evil."
The kid's worry about Batman was so full that it almost overflowed.
Charles could understand Jason's feelings. The previous touch of his inner world made him inadvertently see little Robin's deepest secrets. He knew what Batman meant to Jason.
He placed his hand on little Robin's head and rubbed it. The hair felt just as soft as he had imagined.
"Come on, let's go and bring them all back."
The brain wave amplifier is not here. In order to reverse the good and evil, Charles needs to rush to the vicinity of the superheroes. This is definitely very dangerous, but Charles doesn't care at all.
Because in front of him, there is a child who is worried about his family.
Charles originally wanted the two mutant teenagers Nightcrawler and Catfall to take him to the battlefield, while Robin, who had no special abilities and was not feeling well, would wait there. But Jason was unwilling to do that. Little Krypton also sat upright next to Jason and called out crisply, as if to say "I will protect him."
And the way little Robin looked up and begged, Charles really couldn't refuse, and the final result was that they arrived at the most intense battlefield together.
At this time, Shockwave from the superhero camp used its wave power to briefly break the Flash's ability, and the leading female superhero, Vixen, immediately rushed forward with an energy gun and fired at the Flash's red head with wings.
The Flash has returned to the superhero camp.
Mr. Fantastic also quickly retrieved his wife, Invisible Woman.
Finally, Hank the Beast from the mutant side also returns.
However, the good news ended there. Bad news came out. One of the five energy guns was shattered into pieces by a bullet from Talia, a member of the Assassin's League who suddenly appeared during the battle.
This extremely beautiful and dangerous Middle Eastern beauty looked at Batman and raised her bright red lips.
"This is exactly the reunion I envisioned, my dear detective."
Batman throws a batarang at her.
“It’s just as I expected.”
They were once lovers, but their opposite philosophies forced them to meet again in battle.
The situation is not good, Batman compares the strength of the enemy and our own.
Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and a group of blackened superheroes, plus Doctor Doom, Hydra's mercenaries, etc. Even with the help of Flash, Invisible Girl and Beast, the Teen Titans are not weak. Magneto also rushed over with the Brotherhood, and the situation on the battlefield is still sliding in a bad direction.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the battlefield is located in a sparsely populated port at night. Obviously, neither Doctor Doom, as the king, nor the superheroes have the intention of involving ordinary people in the battle.
At this moment, a robin appeared on the battlefield. He saw Batman being pointed at by Talia with a gun and his body covered with wounds. He immediately lost all his rationality.
Little Robin rushed over and kicked Talia on the back of the head. The second-in-command of the Assassin's League fell to the ground without a sound.
Batman was stunned for a second by Jason's sudden kick. He didn't react to how the kid who should have been recuperating in the hotel appeared on the battlefield (and defeated Talia while injured).
At the same time, Professor X placed his hands on his temples, a drop of cold sweat running down his forehead.
Doctor Doom roared in anger as he watched this scene.
"NO——"
He immediately used instruments to control Aquaman to jump into the deep sea. Doctor Doom knew very well that superheroes were a group of people who valued their partners. As long as he could control one person, he would have a chance to turn the tables.
Moreover, Aquaman is the lord of the seven seas. If he keeps this bargaining chip, his power can still be further expanded.
Batman also realized this, and he decisively picked up the last energy gun and jumped into the sea.
Nightwing exclaimed, "B!"
Is he crazy? Chasing Aquaman in the sea? Anyone knows that this will never work!
Then Nightwing saw the extremely agile Little Robin also jumped into the sea.
Jason has never questioned any decision of Batman since he became Robin, and from the moment he put on the Robin uniform, he made up his mind that no matter where the other party goes or what he does, he will follow Batman and help him.
The water of the Baltic Sea is shallow and fresh, and it often freezes starting from January. Even though this area of the sea has been affected by the battles of the superheroes and baked by energy beams, there are still ice fragments floating on the sea surface.
Jason could hear Professor X's voice echoing in his head.
"Robin! Come up! You are just an ordinary human, you have your limits, diving in the sea at this temperature will kill you!"
Charles endured the headache and brought those superheroes back one by one. With the help of Nightcrawler and Phantom, and under the cover of Krypton, he avoided the angry attack of Doctor Doom, and struggled to spare a trace of mental strength to call Robin.
Even if they wanted to rescue Batman, other heroes were more suitable for the job than Robin, but the little robin was unexpectedly not influenced or controlled by Professor X, holding a small portable oxygen cylinder taken from his belt in his mouth and swimming towards the bottom of the sea where his mentor was.
Jason turned a deaf ear to Professor X's calls, and his eyes lit up when he saw Batman.
Batman and Aquaman were lying together on the mud on the bottom of the sea at a depth of about 60 meters. They were both unconscious, but when Jason reached them, he judged from the energy light of the energy gun that Batman had successfully restored Aquaman's goodness and evil, and next to him was an oxygen cylinder of the same type as the Batman family, which had been broken by the trident.
The kid knew that Aquaman couldn't drown even if he was put into the sea, so he decisively carried Batman up to the surface.
This was a test of little Robin's physical strength. He was only 13 years old, only five feet one inch (43 meters) tall and weighed only 95 kilograms. It was really difficult for him to carry Batman, who was six feet two inches ( meters) tall and weighed kilograms.
Fortunately, when they were halfway up, Superman's three primary colors came into Jason's eyes. The Son of Steel grabbed the two of them and slowly ascended with them (ascending too quickly while diving may cause arterial bubble embolism, which is the second only to drowning as a cause of death while diving).
Wonder Woman also entered the water and pulled Aquaman upstream.
