"I've heard an ancient legend that if you go deeper into the human dream, through layers of darkness, you can reach a place called the country of dreams, where an ancient god sleeps. He is called the dream god."

"He presides over all dreams and thoughts in the human world and is one of the most powerful forces in the universe. He has a dream made up of a thousand cats and can use it to turn dreams into reality."

"But that's just a legend," Charles shook his head and said, "Even if my psychic abilities are strong, in reality, I'm still a disabled person who needs others to protect me when in danger..."

"I'm the same. I've said before that I'm an ordinary person, just a psychologist with a special research direction."

Schiller stood up and paced behind the sofa as he spoke, "Limited by my ordinary physical condition, I don't have such strong psychic power to explore the limits of this ability. That's why I invited you here to study this subject together with me."

"The subject includes two aspects. One is how to better create one's own consciousness space and dreams, and the other is how to transform the created dreams into reality..."

"I know, the second aspect sounds somewhat unrealistic, but perhaps you have researched similar subjects before. This big direction is just the ultimate goal, and my current phase goal is to expand the Temple of Thought..."

"For some reason, I have built a tower over 330 floors high within my world of consciousness. But this height has been maintained for a long time, and I haven't been able to break through it for a while."

"I suspect that this may be because my psychic and thinking power is not enough to expand it further..."

Schiller shook his head, but his tone was not sad. He said, "This level of Temple of Thought is already completely sufficient, or rather, it has far exceeded the range of need. 80% of the buildings are experimental, a place where I try all kinds of creations."

"But I am still very curious. What is the limit of psychic ability? Professor Charles , I hope you can study this subject with me, and perhaps we can also bring in other members to form a research group?"

"I am very interested in this subject, but I still have to ask, why do you want to do this research, and what do you plan to do with the research results?"

"This is the thing I mentioned earlier. Have you heard the news that the universe war is about to begin?"

Charles shook his head and said, "I heard about this news for the first time from your phone call just now. But I can feel that there are many restless souls near Manhattan. They are not ordinary people, and the information they are spreading is indeed related to war..."

"We both know how small humans are in the universe. Some say that magic can save everything, while others say that the ultimate way out for humans is machinery and technology. I don't deny these, but I think we can still look for another way out."

"The thinking and consciousness of intelligent life is the most precious part of the entire universe. If humans can take one step further in this field, then we will have an extra way out when facing these crises."

"If you were talking to me about these things in reality, I might not be as interested. But you have chosen a good place..." Charles also stood up and looked out the window of the room, where the bustling and prosperous Tower was located.

Charles walked to the window and smiled, "Thank you for inviting me to study together, because if you didn't, I might have stolen your research results after I went back. That wouldn't be ethical..."

"Although I feel that what you said about creating a dream world and turning dreams into reality is too far-fetched, I think it wouldn't be bad to build such a building in my consciousness space."

"Okay, let's get to business. What's the deal with that war? SHIELD sent you to find me again and wants to use mutants for something?"

"Don't worry, Professor Charles. There is infinite time in dreams. Let me explain the whole plan, and after that, you will have enough time to think about what to do..."

Half an hour later in Charles' office, Cyclops hesitated and said, "Well, there aren't many opportunities to train our children's abilities, but working with SHIELD for an internship...isn't it a bit..."

Charles rolled his wheelchair to the window and said, "If it was someone else leading the team, I might not feel at ease, but Captain America Steve is in charge of this internship, and his character is still trustworthy."

"But what exactly are we supposed to do? There isn't a war going on right now, is there?"

"On the contrary, a universe war is about to begin. Although the main battlefield is not near Earth, the aftermath is bound to affect us. SHIELD has other plans for this war, but their abilities are not enough."

"So, they want to use mutants again?"

"It's just mutual use. The scale of this war is such that no one can be self-sufficient. Since that's the case, it's better to take the initiative..."

"Scott..." Charles turned his wheelchair and looked back at Cyclops. He said, "I have always been against war, but obviously, the conflicts in the universe cannot be stopped by us. Since that's the case, we need to keep up with the times and not fall behind, otherwise we will be left behind..."

Cyclops nodded without further objection. Charles asked, "Who is currently in charge of the internship and external contacts?"

"Um, it should have been Angel, but his family business has been busy lately. I heard that his company is involved in a project called the Immortality Factor Project, so he has to go home to help, so..."

"Okay, then who is available now?"

"Um, Professor, forgive me for speaking bluntly, even if the war is happening in the universe, and the front line is not near us, it should still be dangerous, right? Shouldn't we mobilize immediately, and then find a few of the most reliable people to take the students and go to SHIELD?"

Charles paused for a moment and said, "Oh, right, wars are indeed quite dangerous. I was just about to emphasize that. Since that's the case, you and your younger brother should both be available, right?"

When Cyclops mentioned his younger brother, "Havok," he clearly showed an unnatural expression. Their relationship was not good. Cyclops said in a helpless tone, "Last time he had a big argument with Iceman because of Northstar. He swore he would never come here again. The last time I saw him was three months ago, and I can't count on him for anything..."

"Okay, then what about Storm?"

"She seems to have gone back to her hometown. I can't be sure." Cyclops rubbed his chin and said, "It seems like she's in love..."

"What about Psylocke?"

"The school's teaching can't do without her. She's the only one in charge of enrollment and daily teaching schedule. Oh, right, Wolverine went to the west with Phantom Cat, seems to be investigating something called Dragon Bone..."

Charles also covered his forehead and asked, "Then who is currently at the school?"

"Colossus and The Beast are both there, but many people can be contacted right now. If we need to summon them, they should all come."

"...No, there's no need to go to such great lengths. It would be better if Iceman can come back. If he can't, then you and Colossus can go. By the way..."

"I heard from Steve that they also have an underage child on their side, the Spider-Man who has been weaving in New York recently. You must watch over the children and not get into conflicts with them."

"Spider-Man?" Cyclops raised his eyebrows and said, "He's quite famous, all the major newspapers in New York have published his figure swinging around in New York. He's still not of age?"

"When Steve told me this news, I was also surprised. I thought he was a mutant, but later, Steve told me that his mutation is different from ours."

"But in any case, having someone the same age will make their communication smoother."

"Who should we send? The senior students?"

"I think Shadow, Crystal, and Magnifier would be good choices. They've made great progress recently."

"But they're not even in the same grade, and their abilities don't complement each other. Can they really form a team?"

"I'm actually a little confused, Professor..." Cyclops asked with some doubt, "The fighting in the center of the universe and the practical training of the children at Xavier's school, they shouldn't have any relationship, right? We can't possibly send those teenagers to the battlefield, can we?"

"Indeed, these two things don't have a direct relationship, but they are just part of a series of events, a small part of the cooperation project..."

Cyclops became even more confused. He felt that Professor Xavier seemed a little different from before, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was different. He had a feeling that Xavier was hiding something from him, but he didn't know how to ask.

The next day, at SHIELD's underground training base, Nick stood behind one-way glass and watched Spider-Man and several mutant teenagers sparring. He looked at Schiller and asked, "I asked you to find me some mutants to do dirty work, and you brought me this group of children? I thought it would be Wolverine or someone."

"I conveyed your request to Charles during our communication, and he seemed to understand it as an internship opportunity for a mutant school. But there's no relationship, they're still following two teachers, right?"

Nick pursed his lips and looked over at Cyclops and Colossus, who were standing beside the field, cheering on the students. He shook his head and said, "If they weren't here, maybe I could convince these innocent children to help me out, but with them watching, what can I do? That guy with red eyes is already giving me a hard time..."

"Don't you just want to cause a stir and divert other people's gaze, so that you can go lobby Congress for more power for SHIELD during this universe war? I think they can definitely do that..."

Nick opened his mouth, looked at Schiller, and said, "Okay, even if we ignore the ethical issue of sending minors to do dirty work, what can they do? They can't even beat Spider-Man..."

Nick's gaze fell on the field. At this moment, a teenage girl stood in the center of the field, waving her arms. She was controlling the shadow of everything in the field and attacking Spider-Man, but Spider-Man seemed to predict her movements in advance and agilely dodged them, completely unfazed.

"Is it possible that they're not too weak, but Spider-Man is just too strong?"
