Chapter 372 Cyclops Has a Love Rival!
"Sean!" Skye screamed, raised his hand to help, but didn't know where to start, and froze there at a loss.
Eric's face was dark, and he stepped closer to Sean, carefully checking Sean's condition. He fooled Sean because he would be of great use in the future, not to let him be cannon fodder here!
Sean's body was burning with hot phoenix flames, his face was distorted, his mouth was wide open, and he seemed to be roaring in pain, but the phoenix flames blocked the sound, making his expression look very hideous.
Eric tried to extract the power of the phoenix with a unified position, but it had the opposite effect. The power of the phoenix was unwilling to leave Sean and desperately drilled into his body. In order to obtain enough power to fight Eric, the power of the phoenix even began to absorb Sean's vitality.
Sean was also miserable. He had just awakened his extraordinary bloodline, and before he had time to be happy, he met the phoenix. It was okay if he met it, but why did you go up to join in the fun? If he stayed in New York honestly, how could this happen?
"Eric, how is he?" Skye looked at his "brother" worriedly.
"It's very troublesome!" Eric frowned. In just a few seconds, the Phoenix Force had taken root in Sean's body and was deeply rooted, turning Sean into a glorious Phoenix host. However, the Phoenix Force did not seem to like its new host very much. It desperately absorbed his superpowers and vitality, leaving him no chance to live!
"Hey! It hasn't happened yet, why are you arguing with a child!" Eric suddenly shouted, and Skye was confused.
After shouting this, the Phoenix Force on Sean suddenly paused, and the Phoenix Force seemed to be thinking.
It's true! Eric sighed.
Sean, if he followed the original history, he would be seizing the Phoenix Egg under the instigation of Ebony Maw, gaining the Phoenix Force, and becoming a Phoenix host to kill Thanos.
But he was aiming at something that hadn't happened yet!
Eric knew that in the eyes of Phoenix bosses, time was just a unit of measurement like length, height and width. There was no difference between things that happened in the future and in the past.
But you can't do that! Things that didn't happen, they didn't happen. You can't kill him now just because he might steal your eggs in the future!
To put it nicely, it's called taking precautions before they happen. To put it bluntly, it's just a false accusation!
The Phoenix Fire returned to normal, and Sean finally felt better. He looked at Eric with a pleading look and opened his mouth, but unfortunately no sound came out.
"Ebony Maw was killed by me, and that future won't happen!" Seeing that his mouth cannon was useful, Eric struck while the iron was hot and waved his hand to open a portal, "Let him go and go back to Jean! There is no more perfect Phoenix host in this universe than her!"
The Phoenix Fire jumped violently, and seemed to be a little moved.
Eric planned to add more strength, and a ball of eternal fire appeared in his palm with a flip of his palm, "Come out, it's yours!"
Upon seeing the eternal fire, the phoenix finally gave up its reserve. A phoenix shadow appeared above Sean's head, and the bird's beak pecked at the eternal fire.
Eric didn't move, letting Him eat the eternal fire. However, the Phoenix's subsequent actions were somewhat different from what he expected.
After the Phoenix ate the Eternal Fire, it let out a joyful cry, then quickly shrunk into Sean's body and never came out again.
What does that mean? Eric was confused.
"Where did it go?" Skye looked confused.
Sean collapsed to the ground, looking relieved.
...
After sending Skye back to New York, Eric brought Sean to Utopia. To solve Sean's troubles, he had to start from the root.
With years of experience fighting with the Phoenix, Professor X finally found her consciousness deep in Jean's brain after much effort. The master and apprentice worked together to suppress the Phoenix's power again and sealed it deep in Jean's mind.
"How is Jean?" When Eric arrived, Jean's consciousness had not yet withdrawn from the depths of her brain, and she was still reinforcing the seal of the Phoenix. He could only ask Professor X to find out the situation.
"Not bad." Professor X looked very tired, but there was a look of joy between his eyebrows. "This time the phoenix suddenly split into two, and about one-third of the phoenix power in Qin's body left. She can live a little easier."
"Yes, she is relieved, but my child is suffering!" Eric pulled Sean in front of Professor X, "See, what should we do?"
Professor X frowned and looked at Sean, and the majestic mental power kept wandering in his body, "This is the one you are looking for..."
"Yes, he is my son, Sean." In order to avoid Professor X exposing his lies, Eric interrupted him forcibly.
Professor X didn't care, and concentrated on fighting against the phoenix power in Sean's body. After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It's a bit troublesome!"
"What's wrong?" Eric and Sean both pricked up their ears.
"He doesn't want to come out, it seems to be for something." Professor X hesitated, "Or to get that kind of thing for a long time!"
"Long-term!" Eric widened his eyes. Good guy, this is relying on me! Let me raise a phoenix for fun?
Sean didn't understand what was going on. He touched his head and took a long time to react. He suddenly said, "Is it that kind of flame?"
"Nonsense!" Eric slapped him hard on the back of his head, "That's the eternal fire born in the center of the galaxy!"
"It sounds like it's precious, and delicious..." Phoenix has begun to influence Sean, and his mind is subconsciously moving towards Phoenix.
Professor X and Eric frowned and thought, Sean shrank his head and savored the taste of the eternal fire, and Jean, who was lying beside him, finally woke up.
She was not unconscious, but most of her consciousness remained deep in her brain, but her body's nervous system was still faithfully performing its duties. She knew everything that happened in the outside world. She slowly sat up, first smiled at Sean in a friendly way, and then greeted Eric with a smile, "Long time no see, Uncle Eric."
"Ahem!" Eric was choked by the uncle, "What uncle! Am I that old? Call me brother!"
"No, just call me uncle!" Sean looked at Jean, and suddenly became tough, pushed Eric away, and came to Jean's side, "Hello, my name is Sean, nice to meet you."
"Jean Grey." Jean smiled shyly, stretched out her hand to touch her hair, and the fiery red hair was pinned behind her ears as she moved.
It was just a simple action, but in Sean's eyes, it looked particularly moving, beautiful, sexy, and heart-pounding...
Eric and Professor X looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
Cyclops has a rival in love!
