Chapter 168
Professor X's words startled Magneto.
Magneto turned to look at his old friend who was staring at him with wide eyes. He didn't expect that his old friend would join Hell's Kitchen before him.
"Charles, you're one step ahead of me. It was obviously me who came first, this old man."
Magneto thought to himself.
Then he hurriedly said to Chen Ye: "Our Mutant Brotherhood is also preparing for Hell's Kitchen!"
Magneto was afraid that his old friend would steal the limelight and didn't care about face.
Chen Ye looked at the two old men with a little surprise. He didn't expect that they both wanted to join Hell's Kitchen.
"When did Hell's Kitchen become so popular? Everyone wants to escape from Hell's Kitchen, but these two old guys are so good that they bring mutants into Hell's Kitchen." Chen Ye thought to himself.
Chen Ye was not worried about any conspiracy. He was not afraid of anyone. After all, all conspiracies were useless in front of strength.
Although Chen Ye was a little tempted by the mutants joining Hell's Kitchen, he still said, "I have no problem, but it depends on the ideas of other mutants. You two old guys are making decisions for them without authorization!"
Chen Ye was not worried at all that the mutants would become more chaotic after entering Hell's Kitchen. After all, the people in Hell's Kitchen were not afraid of mutants. At most, they would fight. Anyway, Hell's Kitchen has always been based on strength.
Professor X smiled slightly when he heard this.
He understood Chen Ye's concerns, so he explained: "Don't worry, I will respect their opinions." He paused and continued: "In fact, I do this for the future of mutants.
If one day I can no longer protect them, at least there is a place for them in Hell's Kitchen.
Moreover, if they live well in Hell's Kitchen, it can also prove that this place is suitable for mutants to live, and perhaps change the minds of those mutants who don't want to come here."
Magneto nodded after hearing this. Although he is impulsive, he also understands Professor X's ideas.
He believes that as long as they gain a foothold in Hell's Kitchen, they will definitely be able to create a new world for mutants.
After listening to the explanations of the two, Chen Ye also nodded to show his understanding.
But he still said seriously: "Let me be frank. There is no special treatment for mutants coming to Hell's Kitchen. I treat everyone equally. If they make mistakes, don't blame me for being ruthless."
He looked at Magneto specifically to remind him that the mutant brotherhood under him are all troublemakers and need to be disciplined.
Magneto understood what Chen Ye meant, and he responded domineeringly: "Don't worry, I won't force them to join. If the mutants who join really make mistakes, I will personally teach them a lesson!"
His words were full of confidence and determination, as if he had seen the day when mutants would emerge in Hell's Kitchen.
After seeing Magneto agree, Chen Ye smiled like a profiteer: "Since they have joined Hell's Kitchen, they naturally need to arrange their accommodation, which is a considerable expense. I don't know how much you two are going to pay, and the next thing is up to you, Wanda." After that, Chen Ye stood up and prepared to leave.
Wanda nodded when she heard what Chen Ye said, and then looked at Magneto and Professor X.
Chen Ye's sudden change surprised Magneto and Professor X. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that the Lord of Hell really loves money like his life, and his reputation is well-deserved.
Professor X shook his head and did not refute, after all, he still had some savings.
Magneto looked at Wanda with difficulty, as if he was begging her for mercy.
He really didn't have much money, which made him feel a little embarrassed. He prayed in his heart, hoping that Wanda would be able to reduce some of his expenses for the sake of him being her father.
However, Wanda seemed not to see Magneto's pleading eyes, and she began to talk about the specific details of the expenses.
She listed the expenses in every aspect in detail, including the rent of the residence, the decoration costs, the purchase of daily necessities, etc. Each expense was accurate to two decimal places.
Chen Ye didn't care about the follow-up problems, but walked straight to Strange who was still at the table.
Strange didn't leave Hell's Kitchen. Chen Ye knew this very well. He was just waiting for him.
Strange's reputation was spreading in Hell's Kitchen today. It was said that he had saved many people.
"A man with a sharp tongue and a soft heart" Chen Ye commented in his heart.
Chen Ye sat opposite Strange. His
He stared straight into Strange's eyes and said jokingly, "Why, you're not going to leave yet? Don't you always hate this Hell's Kitchen?"
When Strange heard this, a trace of confusion and bewilderment flashed in his eyes.
He looked at Chen Ye, frowned slightly, and said with a hint of helplessness in his voice, "Tell me, can I really change anything by studying medicine? Seeing you people have superpowers, I'm really a little envious."
Everything Strange experienced today was like a nightmare, which set off a huge wave in his heart.
He witnessed all kinds of superpowers, from the magical horse charm in Deadpool's hands to the legendary magic beans, and every scene shocked him.
He learned from Chen Ye that the person who gave these superpowers was the person in front of him.
This made him start to reflect on whether he could really compare with these seemingly magical superpowers after so many years of hard work in studying medicine?
Chen Ye looked at Strange's expression and felt a little helpless.
He understood Strange's mood at the moment, but he couldn't tell him directly about his future fate.
He couldn't reveal the story of Strange's car accident, then being saved by a bald wizard, and finally becoming the Supreme Sorcerer.
So Chen Ye could only ask softly: "Strange, do you really want superpowers?"
Strange hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "If possible, I really hope to have superpowers. But the premise is that I don't become too ugly."
Chen Ye looked at Strange and made a decision in his heart.
He decided to take Strange to Kamar-Taj and let him meet the Ancient One in advance.
Perhaps, Strange really doesn't have to experience a car accident to become the Supreme Sorcerer.
So Chen Ye said to Strange: "Okay, then you stay in Hell's Kitchen today, and I'll take you to see someone tomorrow morning."
Strange asked curiously: "Who?"
Chen Ye said slowly: "A person you are destined to meet, a person who can give you the superpowers you want."
After hearing this, Strange's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and expectation.
After hearing Strange's agreement, Chen Ye asked Pietro to arrange a room for Strange to sleep in for the night.
He also prepared to go upstairs to check the system and sort out the harvest.
