Compared with the Raven's shapeshifting ability to steal intelligence, Black Widow is renowned for her reputation, relying on her beauty to obtain valuable information.
Both are female agents with equivalent abilities. If Raven was not a Mutant, as a female agent, it would be easiest for her to rely on her beauty to obtain confidential information.
Nick Fury shook his head, dispelling all distracting thoughts from his mind. This time, he came to Charles seeking help to locate Eric.
For the people at Charles' school, S.H.I.E.L.D still evoked some fear. In the original Apocalypse catastrophe, Cairo was transformed into Pyramids, resulting in the deaths of millions of people. The Cairo Pyramids still stood as a reminder of that catastrophic event. Everyone who experienced the Apocalypse catastrophe remembered how Charles' abilities were used by Apocalypse to convey his messages worldwide. The inexplicable launch of nuclear bombs was attributed to Charles being controlled by Apocalypse, highlighting the immense power of Charles' abilities.
The details of how the Apocalypse catastrophe ended remained unclear, even in S.H.I.E.L.D's files. No one knew how Apocalypse ultimately met his demise.
It had been discovered that the two Mutants, Charles and Eric, were extremely powerful individuals. One founded a Mutant school, while the other founded the Mutant Brotherhood, which focused on different goals. Although the Mutant Brotherhood had been relatively quiet for a while, it was evident that Charles was associated with the alliance camp, while Eric was linked to the opposing side.
"S.H.I.E.L.D," Charles sensed the arrival of the organization through his psychic abilities. He was well aware of S.H.I.E.L.D's reputation and importance.
"Naturally, we can't neglect them," Charles remarked.
"Scott, come with me to greet the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.," Charles instructed as he rose from his seat and headed downstairs.
Despite his immense strength, he remained a civilian without any official position.
Regardless of Nick Fury's purpose for visiting, it couldn't be ignored.
"Professor X," Nick Fury greeted with a slight smile as Charles approached.
"What brings Chief Nick here?" Charles inquired with a smile.
"It's something quite serious. Senator Kelly was abducted by Magneto. Do you have any information, Professor?" Nick Fury asked, his expression grave.
"Congressman Kelly taken by Eric? When did this occur?" Charles inquired, his expression turning serious.
"Just yesterday morning," Nick Fury replied.
"Yesterday morning? That's troubling. Is there any way I can assist?" Charles responded, understanding the gravity of the situation.
"It's simple. Help us locate Kelly's whereabouts. As a member of Congress, it's imperative that we find him quickly," Nick Fury stated succinctly.
"Of course. Follow me," Charles said, leading Nick Fury into the school. The various facilities opened up, revealing the location of the brainwave amplifier.
Nick Fury marveled at the high-tech equipment surrounding him. "The professor's setup here is more impressive than what we have at S.H.I.E.L.D.," he remarked.
"It's just a jest. Our space may be limited, but we strive for precision. It's not like S.H.I.E.L.D., which caters to thousands," Charles replied with a smile, adjusting the brainwave amplifier.
The terrifying spiritual power spread out instantly, looking for Senator Kelly's trace.
After searching for a while, Charles looked very serious.
After Charles let out a sigh of relief, he took off the brainwave amplifier and looked at Nick Fury, and said, "Unfortunately, I can't find Representative Kelly's brainwaves anymore."
"Can't find it? What does this mean?" Nick Fury asked quickly.
"It means that Senator Kelly may have been killed." Charles also looked concerned. He understood Eric. Although he harbors resentment towards humans, he hasn't reached such an extreme point because Eric knows that Mutants evolved from humans.
How can you kill humans now? Or a member of Congress?
"Dead?!" Nick Fury's expression changed, and his tone became stern. "Killing members of Congress will not make humans accept Mutants but will only fuel hatred towards Mutants. You should be aware of this."
"No, based on what I know about Eric, he would not do such a stupid thing. It may be caused by other reasons," Charles explained.
"It doesn't matter if it is Magneto or not, but I can't ignore it, professor. Thank you for your help; I will let people increase their search, find Magneto, and arrest him. I hope you can support, professor." Nick Fury said to Charles. Nodded, and walked out directly with Phil Coulson.
