Wang Bo snapped his fingers and dispelled the magic.
The flesh under Deadpool's nose split open and turned back into lips. He touched his mouth and exhaled, "Oh, [BEEP] you know, I almost thought I was going to suffocate just now, I just... Okay, okay, I'll shut up, I'll shut up."
Seeing Wang Bo about to snap his fingers again, Deadpool quickly stopped him.
"Answer my question," Wang Bo said.
Deadpool said, "Yeah, I didn't come to this world for the Ghost Rider. Actually, I don't like that guy at all. You saw how he brutalized me just now. I felt like I was [BEEP] If I had the chance, I'd [BEEP] that guy..."
"Enough." Wang Bo saw that the guy was going on and on and couldn't help but scold him. He swore he had never seen anyone so vulgar and violent; this guy was practically a human censor machine.
"What exactly are you here for? I want you to express it clearly within ten words!!"
"I'm looking for Professor X." Deadpool explained his purpose for coming to this world in eight words.
Wang Bo raised an eyebrow, "You mean Professor X came to this world?"
That would mean the other traveler was Professor X.
"I don't know." Deadpool gave an unexpected answer. "Professor X suddenly disappeared from his world, so I came to find him. But I'm not sure if he's in this world, since I haven't found him yet. However, I suspect he is in this world."
"You suspect he's in this world?" Wang Bo asked.
"Uh-huh." Deadpool nodded.
Wang Bo said, "I know there's another traveler besides you in this world, but I'm not sure if that person is Professor X."
"It must be him, no doubt. I can smell the scent of his cologne." Deadpool said confidently, even pretending to sniff.
Wang Bo couldn't be bothered with Deadpool. He wasn't Wolverine, and even Wolverine couldn't smell Professor X's cologne from such a distance.
Wang Bo asked, "Assuming that traveler is Professor X, where do you think he would go after coming to this world?"
"Is that even a question?" Deadpool answered almost without hesitation. "Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, of course."
Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters?
Wang Bo suddenly realized—wasn't that just the X-Mansion? Why call it Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters? He hadn't caught on at first.
But thinking about it, if Professor X really came to this world, it would be normal for him to visit the school.
"Alright." Wang Bo thought for a moment and said, "Let's go check out the school first. Do you know which direction it is?"
Deadpool said, "Of course I know. I've been there several times. Colossus always wanted me to join the X-Men, but unfortunately, I'm not interested in the X-Men. I've decided to form my own X-Force. Come to think of it, my team doesn't have a Saint yet. Do you want to join my team? If I had a Saint in my team, that would be so cool. By the way, can you do the Light Speed Punch? I... mmph!"
Wang Bo sewed up the guy's lips. "Now, you're just a tool. A tool should obediently give directions, got it? If you say another word of nonsense, I'll... Actually, now you can't say nonsense anyway."
Deadpool: ...
"Alright, now lead the way." Wang Bo patted Deadpool on the shoulder, but accidentally used too much force and shattered Deadpool's shoulder. "Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to."
Deadpool: ...!!!!
Seeing Deadpool's pitiful look, Wang Bo felt immensely satisfied. This guy really was a jerk.
Under Deadpool's guidance, Wang Bo and he traveled from the west of the United States to the east, and found the address of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.
But this world wasn't the mutant world; it was the Ghost Rider world. So Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters was actually an ordinary estate, not a school.
The owner of the estate wasn't a professor, but a wealthy man.
"If the Professor saw this, he'd be really sad. His beloved school is gone, don't you think?" Deadpool said mischievously.
Wang Bo turned his head and saw that Deadpool had indeed cut open his own flesh again, revealing a bloody smile.
"Just shut up." Wang Bo said. "What you need to do now is go check if the Professor has been here."
Deadpool smiled slightly, "Leave it to me."
With that, the guy nimbly climbed over the wall and entered the estate.
Just as Wang Bo was curious how he would find traces of Professor X's visit, he saw Deadpool quickly go to the wealthy man's room, slap him awake, put a knife to his neck, and ask if any suspicious person had been lurking near the estate in recent months.
Wang Bo: ...
That was too much.
Seeing the estate owner's pitiful, weak, and helpless expression, Wang Bo slowly said, "Isn't that you?"
This guy was really cheeky.
Deadpool: "I mean besides me, other people, you understand? The kind of person you don't know at all, but they can enter your brain, read your thoughts, and you have no secrets in front of them."
You're clearly talking about Professor X.
Wang Bo couldn't help but mutter.
Perhaps because the knife on his neck was too cold, or because his survival instinct was too strong, the estate owner said, "I remember now. A month ago, someone did visit me."
"Who?" Deadpool asked.
"I didn't know him, but he was in a wheelchair. Oh, he said his name was Charles, Charles something. Wait, I'll remember it in a moment."
"Thanks, but no need." Deadpool had already gotten the answer he wanted. The Professor had indeed come to this world.
"Now I want to know, where is he?"
"I, I don't know." The wealthy man said pitifully. "After he visited me, he left. I don't know where he is either."
Hearing this, Wang Bo snapped his fingers and teleported Deadpool to his side.
"Enough, let's go." Since he knew the traveler was Professor X, Wang Bo had countless ways to find him.
"I was this close to finding out where the Professor is!" Deadpool waved his knife. "This close."
"No need. I have a better way."
"What way?"
