Chapter 11 The Mind Labyrinth

Chapter 11 The Labyrinth of the Mind

West Chester, New York, School for Mutants.

The West Chester Mutant School was destroyed due to the civil war. It was not until the peace agreement was signed that the school was re-established. The mutants headed by Professor What is important is to instill in them the principles of being a human being, how to not use their abilities to do evil, and how to get along with human beings.

When Shen Yi, Wen Wenwen, Hong Lang, King Kong and Luo Hao came to the mutant school, the first thing they saw was the colorful garden.

Some children are playing happily in the gardens and squares, some are playing ball, and some are sitting on garden benches and reading quietly. Behind the square, you can see a large red building.

That's where mutant children live and study.

"Are you new teachers?" A voice suddenly sounded in my ears.

Everyone turned around quickly, only to see that the person speaking was a small tree next to them. The small tree shook a few times, and turned into a little girl wearing a grass-green skirt, looking at them curiously.

"Amy, don't be naughty! They are the professor's guests!" Storm taught the little girl. The little girl named Amy made a face at them, then ran away laughing.

Shen Yi was a little curious: "How many mutant children are there?"

Storm replied: "There used to be only a few dozen. After the civil war, the human government hoped to have a better way to control mutants without causing a backlash from mutants, so it expanded the size of this place during the reconstruction process. There are about two hundred mutant children here now, and there may be more in the future."

"It must be very hard to take care of more than 200 mutant children." Gentle and leisurely said.

Storm nodded: "Their ability to get into trouble is extraordinary."

As Storm finished speaking, there was only a muffled sound, and a lawnmower in the distance suddenly emitted black smoke.

A child shouted loudly: "Ike, you bastard broke the lawnmower again. This is the third time this week!"

Next to the lawnmower, a little boy who looked about six or seven years old was looking at everyone with innocent eyes.

"Oh! God!" Storm patted her head helplessly. She rushed over and shouted: "Ike, go call Jerry over and ask him to fix the lawnmower. Maho, take Ike away. I I told him not to let him come into contact with machines. He doesn't know how to control his power yet."

Shen Yi walked over with a smile: "Let me do it."

As he spoke, he put his hand on the lawnmower and activated it.

The lawnmower started up again.

Storm looked at Shen Yi in horror and covered her mouth: "Oh, my God, you actually have Jerry's abilities!"

Even Wolverine and Iceman Bobby were stunned by the scene in front of them.

A big boy ran from a distance, it was Jerry Lacio.

The moment he saw Shen Yi, he was obviously stunned. Then he jumped up excitedly and threw himself into Shen Yi's arms: "Hey! I knew I could see you again!"

After not seeing each other for a year, Jerry has obviously grown a lot taller and his body has become much stronger.

Shen Yi gestured at his height, then smiled and said, "Look, our little Jerry is starting to grow."

Little Jerry blushed a little, and then he asked Shen Yi: "Where have you been during this time?"

Shen Yi touched little Jerry's head and smiled: "I went to a very far place."

Little Jerry rolled his eyes, and then asked: "God's place? Heaven?"

During the mission of the X-Men, Jerry once heard Shen Yi claiming that they were God's mercenaries, so he immediately realized where Shen Yi was talking about.

Shen Yi smiled: "Maybe. Some people think it is heaven, and some people think it is hell... Jerry, Professor x invited us here. I think the professor has a lot to say to us."

Shen Yi did not intend to discuss this topic too much.

Jerry immediately became excited. He pulled Shen Yi and shouted: "Follow me, I will take you to see the professor!"

But Storm stopped her: "No, no."

"Why?" Jerry yelled.

Storm ignored him and turned to look at Shen Yi: "Before formal contact, the professor hopes to talk to you alone. He is waiting for you in the study on the second floor."

Entering the building, Shen Yi's footsteps were gentle.

In front of you is a row of classrooms with oil paintings hanging on the walls. The environment here is clean and elegant, and you can faintly smell the fragrance coming from the window.

Walking up the stairs, Shen Yi looked left and right.

A person in the aisle on the right is feeding a puppy. Surprisingly, the puppy is eating upside down. Its two front paws are on the ground and its entire body is vertical in the air.

Shen Yi took a few steps forward: "Hello, do you know where the study is?"

The man raised his head and looked at Shen Yi. Only then did Shen Yi realize that he had no face.

The faceless man looked at Shen Yi, then pointed to the end of the study.

"Thank you." Shen Yi nodded to the faceless man.

He walked towards the end of the corridor.

The corridor was not long, but after walking for a while, Shen Yi found that no matter how he walked, he could not reach the end.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, as if even the wind had stopped shaking.

Shen Yi looked back at the faceless man.

He just stood there, motionless.

At his feet, the dog was also looking at him, with a strange light in his eyes.

Shen Yi tried to take a step closer to the faceless man, but found that he could not close the distance with him no matter what.

He stood between the faceless man and the study, but he couldn't reach either end.

Even the surrounding walls were like this. They seemed so close but were so far away that Shen Yi couldn't touch them.

Shen Yi frowned slightly: "Professor x, is this the way you use to entertain guests?"

He didn't know what happened, but he could quietly put himself into a situation where he couldn't advance or retreat. Apart from Professor X, I'm afraid no one else could do it.

no respond.

Only Shen Yi's cry kept echoing from far to near.

This weird atmosphere made Shen Yi feel suffocated.

He loosened the tie around his neck slightly, then closed his eyes and walked towards the study.

One step, two steps, three steps...

After taking ten steps, he opened his eyes, only to find that he was still standing where he was.

The faceless man stood behind him, always looking at him.

what is going on?

He casually took out the spirit fire gun and pointed it at the study door in the distance: "Professor x, dispel the illusion, otherwise I will shoot."

After waiting for three seconds with no results, Shen Yi shot decisively.

Then he saw that the bullet was standing still in the air the moment it left the barrel of the gun.

The attached flame blooms like a flower.

Then the whole building burst into flames.

"No..." Shen Yi murmured: "This is not true... these are all hallucinations."

He tried to reach out and touch the flame, only to hear a light puff, and the flame actually left a little burning mark on his finger, with a clear feeling of pain.

If it was a hallucination, how could he burn himself?

Shen Yi looked back and saw the faceless man still standing there in the distance.

The faceless man suddenly stretched out his hand, pointed at Shen Yi, and then pointed at himself.

Shen Yi was stunned for a moment.

He noticed that the faceless man was referring to his head.

He seemed to be reminding himself of something.

"What do you want to tell me?" Shen Yi shouted.

The faceless man shook his head.

He stepped back, step by step, and disappeared into the flames.

As the faceless man disappeared, a white figure appeared in front of him.

Turns out to be the girl in white?

She was standing in a corner not far away from her, with her bare feet standing in the middle of the flames.

Her long hair obscured her face and her face could not be seen clearly.

Shen Yi stared blankly at the girl in white, and suddenly his heart became clear.

He raised his head and shouted: "Professor

A melodious sigh finally sounded: "I'm sorry, young man, please believe that I don't mean any harm, I just want to know you better."

Shen Yi turned around and looked around: "Why don't you just peek into my mind?"

"I tried, I can't do it."

"But you didn't give up, but instead made a maze for me to come out of?"

"No, to be precise, I just let you enter your own mind. What you see is all your imagination. It is the reflection of your subconscious mind. I hope to discover something about myself through them. The secrets you are looking for can also help you see yourself more clearly."

Subconscious? Shen Yi was stunned.

Could it be that the faceless man, the dog, the flames, and the girl in white are all things that my subconscious is looking for? So what do they represent?

As if he knew what Shen Yi was thinking, Professor You think there is a force in the secret that is helping you, or has helped you, but you lack understanding of it. As for the dog eating upside down, it represents retrograde, that is, the consequences of violating something. The reason why it is a dog , because you are not sure what it is. As for those flames, it means your understanding of the situation around you. It can be seen that the environment you are in is so dangerous that you may be swallowed up by the flames at any time. You will be swallowed up by the flames. Burning pain is because you have experienced pain before. You can see the study but cannot approach it. That is because you know that the road you are walking on has an end, but it will be very difficult for you to reach it. Look. Where you are now, you...have only gone one-fifth of the way."

Shen Yi understood.

All of this is the incarnation of his own consciousness.

What’s interesting is that the consciousness that Professor

That doesn't really represent Shen Yi's thoughts.

As for what these subconscious thoughts represent, even Shen Yi himself cannot be sure, let alone others?

Fortunately, Professor

Shen Yi pointed at the girl in white and said, "What about her? Is she also the embodiment of my subconscious?"

"There are many types of subconscious, some are vague and abstract, and some are concrete and real. Those that are vague are things that you cannot be sure of, such as your future; those that are concrete are things that have been deep in your memory. Content, such as this girl.”

Is that so?

Shen Yi stared blankly at the girl in white in front of him.

He involuntarily raised his hand towards the girl and tried to separate the long hair that covered his face.

He wanted to see the face under the long hair, although he also knew that the girl was just a projection of his consciousness. He had never seen the girl's true face, so he could not project the girl's face at all.

However, when he brushed away his long hair, he was surprised to see a snow-white face with eyes closed tightly.

The face was beautiful, with a hint of childishness on her green face. She seemed to be in a deep sleep, with a peaceful expression like a newborn baby, with her brows slightly wrinkled and twitching from time to time.

At that moment, Shen Yi suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.

Sadness, melancholy, despair, helplessness, confusion and other emotions filled his heart. It was as if he had experienced countless changes in life and death. Time expanded into an extending straight line with no end in sight, and his mood rose rapidly. Straight down...

The girl's originally closed eyes suddenly opened and looked at Shen Yi.

Shen Yi only felt the pain in his brain like a needle piercing it.

He yelled "Ah" and flew back.

As soon as he stepped away, the girl in white had already turned around and ran back.

"No!" Shen Yi shouted: "Wait a minute!"

He chased after her, and the girl in white waved her hand, and the space suddenly changed, the flames disappeared, and everything disappeared without a trace.

Time and space changed, the whole world became trembling, and Shen Yi found himself walking back to the study corridor again.

He walked towards the study.

This time, he came to the study door easily.

Pushing open the door, an old man was sitting opposite.

Professor x!
