Magneto is a good guy - Chapter 8

Chapter 8 The 21-gram Weight

“Magic is a very magical power. Through the Trinity of Emperor Weishan, the supreme wizards of the multiverse can exchange their cultivation experience with each other, so that the inheritance of magic can continue.”

Ancient One waved his hand and drew a circle in the air. The mysterious golden magic rune was automatically filled in the circle, and then turned into a beam of light, spreading to the surroundings aperture. After that, the small aperture extends new light again, connecting the surrounding small apertures.

Soon, a giant golden net was woven in the air.

Eric understands that the big aperture is Emperor Weishan. He is like a relay station. Through his power, the supreme wizards of the multiverse can connect their thoughts to form a large network for communication.

“That universe is about to be destroyed…” In return, since Ancient One shared her secret unreservedly, Eric didn’t have to hide anything, and told Ancient One what he knew.

“Thanos, is he so strong?” Ancient One frowned, a little unbelievable. In this universe, Thanos was afraid to come to Earth because of her and Odin’s existence. After all, Thanos is just a thicker-skinned warrior.

“Death.” Eric spit out a word, and Ancient One’s face instantly solidified. She hurriedly cast a spell, wrapping the two in layers of mirroring, and then opening the Eye of Agomoto. The power of time flows, and Eric is like a movie. Put it upside down, and withdraw the word.

“Don’t say that name, she can sense it.” Ancient One interrupted Eric, who spoke again. Eric felt inexplicable, but it took a long time to react and exclaimed: “Did you use time gems to return back to me?”

“I just eliminated a name that shouldn’t be called out.” Ancient One took out a fan from somewhere and shook it gently. “She is the source of the soul of the entire universe, the creator and manipulator, and represents the end of all life in the universe. Even the entire universe ends. Don’t call out his name easily, especially when it comes to the demise of a single universe.”

“This word is mentioned countless times every day. How can he tell which one is calling him?”

“She knows what other person thinks in his heart.” Ancient One closed his fan and didn’t intend to delve into this issue. “Since it was She who took action, then something must have happened in that universe and he needs to bring it to an end.”

Ancient One thought for a moment, then suddenly glanced at Eric weirdly, and said, “Then, why can you escape?”

“Ah? I…” Eric was very thoughtful and didn’t know where to answer, telling her that he was a traverser? After decades of being the Magneto King, he almost forgot his identity.

“Well, let’s not mention this question for now, let’s talk, what do you want to do when you come to this universe?”

“Naturally want to live.” Eric blurted out without even thinking about it.

“Oh? That’s all?” Ancient One stared at Eric, his deep eyes seemed to have fallen even more day and night, and the stars were disillusioned.

“Of course, if possible, I would like to be a little stronger.” Eric shrugged, his expression indifferent.

“Slightly stronger?” Ancient One’s expression became a little weird, “Even at the expense of two universes?”

“Don’t get me wrong, that’s not my intention!” Eric waved his hand and shouted again and again.

“What about the Starks? If you want to, you can wake them up at any time, why do you do this?” Ancient One took a step forward, and the distance between the two was only one step away.

“Um, they are getting older, and the injuries are very serious. They can’t bear too many gamma rays. I’m doing it for their good. This is science. You don’t understand it!” Eric mouth is tightly sealed, but the dodging eyes had already told Ancient One that he was guilty.

Ancient One stared at Eric for a long time, staring at Eric straight, and then said: “Eric, the meaning of life is not self-achievement.”

“Oh? What is that? Protect the earth? Or protect the universe? I’m not that great!” Ancient One’s words made Eric lift up his spirit. This tone is the rhythm that can be played at any time. Although he knows she is invincible, he was still ready to fight, and he could smash her New York Temple at the worst!

Ancient One smiled suddenly, she slowly shook her head, and said, “Eric, you haven’t seen your soul clearly. In my eyes, how bright and radiant it is.”

“Soul?” Eric curled his lips. “I weigh 140 pounds, and 21 grams is not decisive.”

“Do you want to see the 21 grams?” Ancient One asked with a smile.

“Of course not…” Eric hurriedly refused, but before he could finish speaking, Ancient One suddenly slapped him on the chest.

Eric fell back suddenly, and several phantoms appeared behind him. The first was the old Magneto, his current appearance; the second was the Magneto when he was young, that is, the Magneto when he reversed the future.; The third one is an old Magneto, similar in appearance to the first one, but a bit more hostile.

The last one was an Asian face.

Seeing this face, Ancient One was shocked, puzzled, thinking, and then suddenly, with a smile on his face, she pointed at the top of his head, a magic light like a star in the night, illuminating the soul, “It turns out that you don’t only have 21 grams!”

Eric’s soul was beaten out of the body by Ancient One. In his eyes, the whole world turned into slow motion. In front of him, there were several familiar and unfamiliar translucent figures.

It was amazing. There was no mirror in front of him, but he was able to see what he was like now.

“Who am I? Where am I? What am I going to do?” Eric looked around blankly, with a fragment of Magneto in front of him.

**Concentration camp, Sebastian Shaw’s laboratory, Xavier Academy of Talents, Summit of Nations, Golden Gate Bridge… The magnificent two-generation memory of Magneto unfolded in front of Eric.

“When the air is still and night falls, you only need to answer one question: whose side are you on?”

“This revolution should be over! Those who oppose me will be trampled under my feet! Even if you anger God, you can’t stop me!”

…

“I, I’m Eric… I’m the Magneto King, the leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants…” A lot of memories and thoughts were mixed, assaulting Eric’s soul, his eyes gradually blurred, and his hostility surged. The memory of Magneto once gradually gained the upper hand, but there were still some strange memories in that massive memory, which made him hesitate.

At this time, a bright star suddenly rose on the sea of ​​memory, shining on his soul, Magneto’s memory became thin, and those few strange memories became clear.

“Son, these are the dumplings your mother made for you, your favorite carrot and pork filling, eat more!”

“You bastard! You are in your thirties, and you know that you stay at home and read novels and comics! Don’t talk about finding a girlfriend! When I was thirty, you were in elementary school!”

“Son, I went to work hard at the unit. I was clever. I was always thinking about your dad and me. We are still young and in good health!”

…

Two lines of clear tears flowed from Eric’s eyes, and he didn’t even notice that the soul returned to the body. Those long-lasting memories have been kept in the deepest part of his brain. It is not that he can’t remember, but he is afraid to think about it. He has no strength and no right to think about it…

Ancient One watched quietly, until Eric recovered calm, she said; “Who are you?”

Eric got up from the ground and looked at Ancient One calmly: “I am Eric Lanchel, I am the Magneto!”

Ancient One’s face instantly solidified, and the fan in his hand was crunched by her.

Eric suddenly bared his teeth and laughed: “Sister, don’t be so serious, I’m timid, don’t scare me!”

“Eldest sister?” Ancient One looked at him weirdly, with an unknown magic rune in his hand, she breathed a sigh of relief after a long while, and shook his head with a helpless smile.

“Thank you, Supreme Master!”
