Roger crossed over in time to the year 1983. At that point, the permanent population of Cairo, Egypt, was roughly four to five million, with a transient population of around 300,000 to 400,000.

Nearly five million people lived in this city, but due to the ambition of one mutant to rule the world, all of them were brutally buried alive inside a massive pyramid.

In the movies, Roger never really cared about the fate of these people. Or even if he did, the grand spectacle that followed quickly diverted his attention, causing him to overlook them.

But now he was in the world of the movie, the real world of X-Men. When Roger fully grasped that these were real lives on the line, he couldn't forget, even if he wanted to.

Roger thought to himself that he needed to do something, he had to do something.

"X-Men... Professor X!"

Roger quickly thought of Professor X.

Professor X's superpower was mind control, and through the use of a psychic amplifier, his abilities could extend across the entire world.

Roger couldn't stop Apocalypse; he wasn't sure if he could even defeat him. So, to be on the safe side, Roger planned to first find Professor X and have him use Cerebro to force the people of Cairo to evacuate.

This was, so far, the only method Roger could think of to minimize casualties.

As for the economic losses that would follow... what amount of money could possibly compare to the value of human lives?

"I thought I could just be a quiet spectator this time... sigh..."

Roger sighed as he found himself busy again. He then walked into an empty alley and swiftly shot into the sky, heading toward the location of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.

Meanwhile, inside the school, Professor Charles Xavier and Mystique (Raven) were sitting face to face, having a conversation.

This was a long-awaited reunion between old friends. It had been almost ten years since the two last saw each other after the Washington incident. Since then, they had almost no contact.

Now that Raven had returned to the academy, Charles was quite pleased.

However, Raven wasn't as happy. Over the past few years, she had been traveling the world, witnessing many mutants being persecuted by humans, chased, hunted, and treated as mere toys, thrown into arenas to fight one another.

This even included Erik Lehnsherr, Magneto, who had been living incognito.

Magneto's wife and daughter had been killed by the police in a tragic misunderstanding. In his rage, Erik slaughtered all the officers present, but no amount of vengeance could bring back his wife and daughter.

Now Erik was a globally wanted man. Raven had come to Charles to ask for his help in finding Erik and helping him evade the authorities.

Hearing this, Charles' expression darkened.

He had not expected his old friend to go through such a devastating experience. His eyes filled with mixed emotions as he replied to Raven:

"I'll help you find Erik."

"No, you'll be helping yourself."

Raven corrected him.

Since the day ten years ago when Erik had tried to kill her, Raven had cut ties with him. Now, she fought for no one but herself.
