"That's right, I am not." Professor X always wore a smile on his face, and his tone was very kind, "So what you see is not necessarily the truth."
"It's just like how you control their minds and make them do what you want them to do, but in reality, this isn't true either."
Hearing this, Druig's expression changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "What do you know? If I hadn't intervened, their two tribes would have already slaughtered each other to the death!"
"I have the ability to stop it, so I should stop the killing from happening instead of standing by and watching, shouldn't I?"
Professor X sighed and shook his head gently, "You are right. With this ability, it is indeed hard for us to stand by and watch..."
"But please believe me, I have tried it before. I tried like you, forcibly using my own ability to stop some bad things from happening, but..."
"This often leads to even worse situations. We should take action, but definitely not this kind of mental manipulation action, but rather use our abilities to make more practical 'redemption' actions..."
"What we should do is guide people to discover goodness, let them find a way to live in peace with each other, rather than forcibly interfering..."
Under Professor X's words, Druig's eyes gradually changed.
As the only mental manipulator in the Eternal team, he actually didn't have any partners with common language to discuss abilities with.
After all, among the other members, there were mostly warriors, followed by either supports or healers, completely lacking common topics!
Therefore, as the sole psychic ability user, everything had to be figured out by himself.
But today, Professor X's words seemed to open a door to a new World for him!
Using one's own ability to 'redeem', rather than to 'manipulate'...
To guide, rather than to interfere...
Not just Druig.
Even the others present who were controlled by him slowly and collectively lowered the hunting rifles in their hands under Professor X's words, the absent-minded golden light in their eyes slowly disappeared, and scenes shown to them by Professor X emerged in their minds.
Unlike Druig, who forcibly made them fall into a false illusion of peace.
Instead, it made them see clearly what they once and currently cherished.
Let them know that if a war broke out between the two tribes, their wives, children, friends, and all relatives would suffer avoidable harm one after another...
Only peace could best save countless families!
"Maybe... we can divide the territory?"
"That's right, the Amazon is so big and has so many resources. In fact, there's no need for us to keep fighting over a piece of territory, is there?"
"Cejak, actually you are very brave. Do you want to team up for hunting next time?"
"I shouldn't have called you a savage either. I actually admire your hunting skills..."
...
Watching the two tribes, who were no longer under his mind control yet still began trying to live in peace, Druig was stunned.
He had never thought that he could use his ability to resolve disputes in such a 'guided' way...
"Child, your ability is very powerful, you just haven't learned how to use it correctly. As it happens, I have some experience and have opened a Superhuman Academy with the most powerful person in this World, where I can teach you more extended uses of psychic power..."
"So do you want to enroll, Druig?"
Professor X extended his hand to Druig.
After hesitating for a split second, Druig finally reached out and shook Professor X's hand.
After all, he didn't belong here in the first place.
Now that the people of these two tribes had their mind control lifted and could still continue to live in peace, there was no need for him to stay here anymore.
Druig left.
He was also the first one to voluntarily leave without using any force at all.
This was probably the charm of Professor X...

Perspective shift...
South Dakota...
A remote cabin.
Thud! Thud-thud-thud!
Three heavy landing sounds rang out.
One black, one red, and one white, three blonde figures wearing Symbiote battle suits like triplets descended from the sky in front of this cabin.
And they all shared a common name, Gwen Stacy.
The three retracted the Symbiote bat wings behind them and, led by Main Universe Gwen, pushed open the door and walked straight in.
The interior of the house was decorated very warmly.
And a middle-aged woman was holding a hunting rifle, aiming at the three Gwens who had just entered.
Her name was Ajak, she was the current leader of the Earth Eternal, and the only person who could communicate with the Celestials.
However, her combat ability could actually be said to be at the bottom among the entire Eternal.
Because her ability was healing, she could use cosmic energy to quickly heal any wounds on herself and others!
This ability was really not suitable for combat, unless you were a humanoid direwolf~
Main Universe Gwen tilted her head and glanced at the gun in her hand: "You don't naively think that the toy in your hand will be effective against us, do you?"
Not to mention that all three Gwens had primordial advanced Symbiotes, even if they didn't, it wasn't something a hunting rifle could threaten.
Hearing this, Ajak put down the hunting rifle in her hand and smiled, saying: "This isn't used to defend against you, but against some even worse existence..."
Main Universe Gwen said indifferently: "Are you talking about the Deviants?"
Ajak's pupils constricted slightly in surprise: "You actually even know about the Deviants?"
Alternate Universe Gwen proudly said: "Humph! We are the most powerful superhero organization in the entire Universe. As long as we want, there is nothing we don't know!"
"Including you androids made by the Celestials, and those experimental failures of the Celestials!"
Hearing this secret—which not even other Eternal members knew besides herself—blurted out casually, Ajak truly couldn't sit still anymore.
Because logically speaking, this should be an absolute secret!
Except for the leader of the Eternal, no one else should know about these things!
Golden light flashed in her eyes, but instead of attacking, she wanted to contact the Celestials to report this unexpected situation.
But something even more surprising happened to her!
She actually couldn't contact the Celestials anymore!
Unconvinced, Ajak wanted to try again, but was interrupted by Main Universe Gwen.
Main Universe Gwen moved her feet, seeming like teleportation, turning into a black afterimage and appearing in front of Ajak, grabbing her by the neck and lifting her high into mid-air.
"Stop trying, Arishem and the others don't have time to answer your call right now, they are busy entertaining the Master of Earth."
"And now, you guys have to come back with me to face the final judgment from the Master of Earth upon his return!"
With that said, Main Universe Gwen slowly tightened her five fingers. Although Ajak was an android, her body structure was actually still anthropomorphic, sharing some of the same weaknesses as humans.
Therefore, amidst a strong sense of asphyxiation, her eyes rolled back and she passed out.
