Hearing Eric say this, Luke did not doubt it. Because with Eric's arrogant personality, he would never bother to lie. However, although he did not know the whereabouts of Apocalypse, Luke was not in a hurry, because since Apocalypse had already begun to gather his Four Horsemen, the day when he would cause trouble was not far away.
"I'll trust you just once, but you actually dared to attack me. Should I kill you?" Luke looked at Eric who was being strangled by him and said with ill intention.
When Eric heard this, he immediately felt that his life was over. Because according to Luke's intention, he did not pursue the matter of killing so many people. Come to think of it, the other party was a dragon, not a human being at all, so the life and death of these humans had little to do with him.
However, the dignity of the strong cannot be offended, even if the other party was trying to stop him. Judging from Luke's appearance just now, he seemed to have a grudge against Apocalypse, while he himself had just become involved with Apocalypse. With the two factors combined, he really couldn't find any reason through which he could escape today.
"If you have any last words, you can say them now! Otherwise, you will never have the chance to speak again in the future!" Seeing that Eric looked as pale as death, Luke decided to scare him again. In fact, Luke had no intention of killing Eric. After all, he was a rare talent.
Especially now, after being powered by Apocalypse, he seemed to begin to understand the real power he possessed. As for the fact that Eric would attack him, that was also within Luke's expectations. After all, no one would be able to sit down and negotiate calmly if someone suddenly jumped out to disrupt the implementation of their great plan. Therefore, these words were said just to see how this guy would react when facing death.
"In the last stage of my life, can you let me say goodbye to Charles and Raven?" Eric has made up his mind to die, and before he dies he hopes to say a final goodbye to his old friends.
"Since you are about to die, I will fulfil your wish." Having said this, Luke extended his hand towards Charles and Raven over there. Suddenly, the telekinesis turned into a huge palm and grabbed them.
"Charles, does that guy want to kill us too?!" Raven, who was flying in the air and unable to move, spoke to Charles in a terrified voice.
"Raven, don't worry, he's Luke. He shouldn't be too hostile towards us, otherwise he wouldn't have helped us last time." Charles has confirmed Luke's identity at this moment. Although he was curious about the other party's ability to transform into a human form, he was not too worried about their safety.
The only thing that made him feel difficult was Eric who was captured by Luke. As for this old friend, he really didn't want to see him die. So he was already thinking about how to plead with Luke to spare Eric's life.
"What he is Luke?" After hearing what Charles said, Raven's face showed obvious disbelief.
"Luke, you've changed into a new look after just a few days of not seeing you. I almost didn't recognize you." The first thing Charles did after flying over was to extend a friendly greeting to Luke.
"Well, you are back in the wheelchair. It seems that Eric was right. Your abilities have been restored. Now, Eric has some last words for you." Charles was a little dumbfounded when he heard Luke's words, because from what he heard, Luke meant to kill Eric.
"Charles, I didn't expect that we would meet for the last time in this way. I look really embarrassed, don't I?" Eric looked at Luke's hand that was still holding his neck, and said to his friend with a bitter smile.
"Charles, I hope that after I die you can truly take on the responsibility of leading the mutants. Don't think about escaping anymore. You are indispensable to the future of mutants. Perhaps your ideal of pursuing the peaceful coexistence of mutants and humans is correct. For this ideal, please continue to move forward."
"If your wish ever comes true, please come to my grave and tell me. I will be at peace even if I am in hell." For all the evil deeds he committed, Eric never expected to go to heaven.
"Raven, I'm sorry for everything I did to you. Just stay by Charles' side from now on. Please be careful of the ancient mutant who calls himself Apocalypse. He is a ghost left over from the old world. He is so powerful that we cannot comprehend him, and his ideas are even more extreme than mine. His goal is to destroy the world and rebuild a new one on the ruins."
"By then, everything will cease to exist except for the people he chooses." Eric told Charles and the others the news of the apocalypse, hoping it would serve as a warning to them. However, after hearing this, Luke sneered in his heart.
Apocalypse was indeed a powerful existence to Eric and others, but in the eyes of Luke and some guys in hiding, he was just a jumping clown. The reason why he was able to act so arrogantly on Earth was because the truly powerful guys were unwilling to pay attention to him. After all, to them, it didn't matter who ruled the world. And now, if Apocalypse wants to destroy the world, many people will not sit idly by. The first to be affected were the lineage of the Sorcerer Supreme in Kamar-Taj, followed by the gods of Asgard and finally Luke.
"Okay, I'm done, just kill me." Eric can now face his own death calmly.
"Luke, please, let Eric go. Although he made a big mistake, everything he did was for the mutants. The reason why he wanted to take revenge on these people is because many of our fellow mutants died under their butcher knives and were subjected to cruel dissection experiments."
"Can you please let Eric go this time? I promise he will never do such a thing again." After hearing his old friend's last words, Charles couldn't help himself and pleaded to Luke. Although Eric did go too far this time, he really couldn't bear to watch his good friend die like that. Raven next to him didn't dare to speak at all, because she had nothing to do with anything, and she didn't even say a word.
"Charles, you might be mistaken. I'm going to kill him not because he killed some guys who had nothing to do with me, but because of the consequences of his failure in trying to kill me." Luke's words made Charles feel cold in his heart.
"Luke, please let Eric go, I can do anything for you!" Charles saw Luke making the familiar door-opening gesture and a golden halo faintly appeared in front of him, and he subconsciously said this sentence.
"Oh! Are you really willing to do anything to save his life?" Luke asked Charles with a malicious look on his face.
"Yes, anything." Looking at Luke's expression, Charles suddenly felt a chill down his spine, but the words had already been spoken, so he could only bite the bullet and confirm it.
