8 Chapter 08
Mr. Lynn?
WHO?
Throughout the university, at the moment the groups of students heard the voice, they were a little stunned and then reacted.
Then they were surprised.
Why is the Director's tone a bit... polite?
Is this the attitude towards a student?
"Well, it seems like our library trio has suddenly caught the director's attention?"
Several adult mutants who were discussing on the other side immediately approached, and one of them looked at Lynn and said casually:
"Lynn... Mr.? What the hell is the director thinking?
"Could it be that he has been enlightened by your terrible reading tastes?"
The crowd burst into laughter.
"Idiot!"
"Did he think he was being funny?"
When Katie and Jubilation Lee heard the voice, their faces sank slightly.
Lynn didn't need to look to know that the person speaking was 'Fireman' John, the intimidating type of character that often appears on American campuses, tall, with exceptional ability and feeling good about himself.
He is an Alpha-level mutant and his ability is to manipulate flames, but he can't create flames.
There are six types of mutants.
Omega (The strongest), Alpha (their ability is strong and controllable), Beta (their ability is strong but uncontrollable), Gamma (their ability is strong but has significant flaws), Delta (common), Epsilon (promising for the future).
Basically, this classification can be roughly equal to potential.
As we all know, potential and strength are never the same.
For example, Iceman is a genuine Omega-level mutant, but after staying in the academy for many years, his skill development level is actually not as good as that of the Alpha-level Pyroman.
In terms of combat power, the current Iceman only has level two.
Burning John, on the other hand, has reached level three.
Wolverine (before transformation) and Storm only have three levels!
Professor X only has four levels!
Therefore, it is conceivable that "Fireman" John, who has outstanding abilities and a high degree of skill development, feels good about himself, which is not surprising at all.
He doesn't even see Iceman in his eyes, let alone Lynn, a simple Delta-level mutant.
He just doesn't know it.
In Lynn's eyes, he is not even worth mentioning.
This kind of naive guy who advocates for brute force and has no brains, once he leaves Professor X's protection, will die faster than anyone else.
"John, my time is precious, so don't join in the fun."
Lynn was not polite at all and his eyes were always on the other mutants running in all directions.
John's face suddenly changed upon hearing Lynn's disdainful tone.
Shortly after, all lower-grade students left.
The playground was filled with older mutants who were about to graduate.
All eyes were on Lynn.
"What's going on? Why did the director suddenly ask us to gather?"
"Recruitment? What recruitment?"
"Could it be X-Men selection?"
"Can we join the X-Men and go on missions like the professors?"
"If that's the case... how could Lynn be the one choosing?"
"Where are the professors?"
As they whispered, there was thunder in the sky.
A figure dressed in black with white hair galloped along with a gust of wind, and in an instant landed in front of everyone.
"Master Ororo!"
Everyone exclaimed.
Envy and reverence appeared in many people's eyes.
It's Storm!
After landing, she gave Lynn a very strange look in her eyes.
Then she scanned the audience, "This is not the X-Men selection, but Lynn is going to carry out a secret mission. The director asked him to select some teammates from among you!"
"Secret mission?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment and then realized, they were all eager to try.
In their view, being able to carry out Director Charles' secret mission at this moment will definitely be a big advantage when the X-Men actually start selection in the future.
Even 'Fireman' John's eyes showed excitement.
"Lynn, pick me!"
"And me!"
Someone looked at Lynn with excitement and self-recommended.
Lynn smiled slightly.
These people can be considered acquaintances of his. Although not as familiar as Katie and Jubilation Lee, they greet each other when they meet during the week.
If you were someone else, you might choose someone you are familiar with.
But Lynn won't do that.
Business teams need reliable members.
Therefore, he values character, intelligence, and obedience more than super ability.
People like Pyro John were dismissed from the start.
Under everyone's watchful gaze, Lynn looked around at everyone and calmly said, "Except for Katie and Jubilee, those who got a B evaluation in last night's dream exam stand up, everyone else can leave."
