Chapter 307: We Don't Have Money
Tuvalu is crazy! Tuvalu's mutant leadership is indeed crazy! Now all the public opinion in the international community thinks so, Tuvalu's female president is destroying the Great Wall!
The founding of Tuvalu has sent shockwaves around the world. In particular, the national muscles displayed in the extermination of Hydra made any force that wanted to move Tuvalu weigh in.
The forces that have the ability to move Tuvalu do not want to fight with this country, because the benefits are much greater than the pays, and it is not worth it. And most of the people who want to fight Tuvalu to the end do not have this strength.
As a result, the issue of Tuvalu has become a very difficult issue in the international community for a while. In particular, the destructive power displayed by those mutants has made many people feel uncomfortable in their hearts, thinking that Tuvalu will be a big cancer.
There is a problem that needs to be solved in this country, but many people don't know what to do. And now, Tuvalu is starting to self-destruct the Great Wall?!
Ever since the Fish Gill Man and other mutants returned to the United States after eating the original ingredient of the X Rebirth Potion and spreading the news. Tuvalu's new policy is now known to almost the whole world.
They actually developed a drug that can eliminate the X gene (in fact, the X gene is in an active state, but the average person can't figure out the mystery of this)!
For example, the gills on the neck of the gill man are finally gone, and after more than 20 years, he finally dares to wear a crewneck. Instead of getting a turtleneck to wear in the summer, you can cover yourself with prickly heat.
Isn't that a good thing? Certainly a good thing for most people!
After the initial reporting by the daily Clarion, the news began to brew around the world. The speed at which news spreads in the modern world is so astonishing that what happened in New York one hour will be known to the citizens of London, England, the next.
And this new drug from Tuvalu has important implications for the whole world. So all of a sudden, not only the global media began to act, but also the intelligence agencies of various governments.
"Check! Go check it out for me! I want to know if it's true!" The FBI boss is also asking for the truth of this matter, because the White House needs a detailed report.
Not only the United States, but other countries have also taken action.
And the results came out quickly, because it wasn't just the gill man. Many mutants who have gone to Tuvalu to take refuge have made a choice in front of the angel Warren. That is to eliminate the X gene and side effects, and then return to the original place of life and continue to live and work normally.
"The man named Angel Warren gave us two options, one was to retain the identity and ability of a mutant to enter Tuvalu to work and live. The other is to drink the potion and become an ordinary person. It's like the Matrix movie where Lawrence asks Keanu Reeves if he wants to take the red pill or the blue pill. The gill man was blunt in the face of the investigation, and he told everything he had experienced.
In any case, the Tuvalu side did not emphasize that they should keep these matters secret. Although the gill man is grateful to Tuvalu for allowing him to return to normal human beings, and may be willing to help Tuvalu in some things, this certainly does not include being tough in the face of FBI investigators.
More details were revealed as the investigation deepened, and now the world is beginning to know. Tuvalu gives mutants who travel to Tuvalu two options, especially since they made this thing called a new life potion.
New Zealand, countless journalists flocked to the city. They all want to get more material from here as soon as possible (because they don't necessarily have to make it to Tuvalu).
On the other hand, other polities, including the U.S. Congress, are at loggerheads internally.
"Is this female president named Katie crazy? I don't see why Tuvalu would do that. A White House bigwig questioned in an internal meeting: "What's in it for Tuvalu?"
"Maybe it's a conspiracy? Maybe it's a façade?" a conspiracy theory boss responded, "Maybe those mutants are trying to do something horrible." ”
The attitude of the United States towards mutants is the vane of the Western (especially NATO countries) world, and many people's policies follow the pace of the United States. This is the posture of being the world's number one power, and there is always a group of people who follow it in what it does.
So the U.S. Congress has to figure out what Tuvalu is doing and figure out how to deal with it.
"We are accountable not only to the United States, but also to our allies!" said a congressional bigwig. Of course, it's not clear how much credibility there is.
And Bob the Submarine's friend, William (a mutant with glowing fingers) who drives a taxi in New York, is also concerned about Tuvalu after he started the news. He remembered that his friend had set off some time ago, saying that he was going to Tuvalu.
William was eager to find out if the news was true, so he made a ruthless phone call to his friend Bob: "Is it true?
William didn't greet him as soon as he came up, but asked Bob with a face, he was a little anxious and the transatlantic phone call was very expensive.
"It's true, that's right. Several of the people who came in with me chose to go back to their old lives after the injections. Bob on the other end of the line sounded excited.
When William heard that the news was true, his heart suddenly moved, and he had some thoughts. But then he quickly noticed the message in Bob's words, and William asked, "What do you mean? Are you still in Tuvalu?"
"Listen, listen. It's complicated, but I assure you, these potions are harmless. But it's nowhere near as good as the real thing, and I think it's much better to be a mutant than a normal person now! If Tuvalu sells the first batch of new potions or something, you don't have to spend money on it, it's going to be expensive. Trust me, just wait a while for a better product to come out on the market, and you're guaranteed to get your money's worth!" Bob's words were unclear, and William didn't let go of his words when he asked him again and again.
William hung up the phone in confusion, and after some thought, he decided to listen to his old friend. The two have known each other for more than 30 years, and Bob has never hurt himself. And it sounds like it's going to be on the market, and it's expensive, and William feels like he's going to need to take a few more taxis to make more money.
…………………………
Tuvalu.
Mutant female President Katie is on a video conference. This video conference was special because she was facing a group of foreign affairs leaders from another country, and they came to ask only one question, that is, about the authenticity of the newborn potion and her purpose.
"The new medicine is real, it can eliminate the side effects of the X gene, which is a kind of medicine that removes the pain. However, the side effect is that it will erase the ability of the X gene. Katie spoke bluntly to these foreign affairs leaders.
"As for the purpose, I'm a student of Professor X Charles, who has dedicated his life to the peaceful coexistence of mutants and humans. At the same time, we are deeply aware of the difficulties of life for Epsilon mutants. We want people to have a good life, rather than Tuvalu relying on certain ways to fight for power. As I said in my previous speeches, Tuvalu is a home for mutants, a shelter from the elements, not a global polity. The expression on Katie's face when she said this was very sincere. Because she thinks so from the bottom of her heart.
"If this potion is so good, why don't you make more injections for all mutants?" asked the British Foreign Minister, a man with a gloomy face.
Katie smiled bitterly: "The reason is simple, we don't have that much money. ”
