Chapter 162: The Countdown Battle of Liberty Island and the Reactions of All Parties
"Magneto, I'm sorry, that test subject named Kelly escaped!" An apologetic voice came from the phone.
"Did you escape? It doesn't matter, he doesn't know much about himself anyway. And now that he's one of us, where can he flee to? Magneto said lightly: "He only has two options now, or, become a test subject in some secret laboratory." Or, join us in the fight against fate and make the mutants truly stand tall in the forest of the whole world! ”
"Understood," the Shapeling nodded, "but...... What if he escaped to Charles? Once ......"
"Our plan is the trend of the times, and no one can stop it!" Magneto directly interrupted her words and said in a deep voice: "If someone really gets in the way, even if it is Charles, I will not show mercy!" ”
The arrival of Councilor Kelly greatly saved Professor X's time, and after his narration, and the other party's open mind for Professor X's exploration. With the concerted efforts, the X-Men quickly learned that the Brotherhood's collective dispatch this time was likely to be related to this machine that could stimulate the invisible X gene of humans.
"Is the professor really trying to stop the other party? Personally, I don't think there's anything bad about Magneto's plan this time, "In a sense, Cyclops, like Magneto, doesn't have a good impression of humans. It's just out of gratitude to Professor X that he didn't join the fraternity, but instead joined the X-Men.
Cyclops' words also represent the voices of a considerable number of X-Men in a sense. They are indeed exercising what is right, but that does not prevent a considerable part of them from being disgusted with humanity, especially those in power.
Professor X, as their life mentor, knew what they were thinking at this time even if he didn't use his ability, so he couldn't help but be silent for a moment, but he still shook his head firmly and said, "No, we must stop this from happening!" ”
"But the professor ......" Cyclops seemed to want to fight for it again.
"Listen to me first," Professor X waved his hand, "Indeed, if Magneto's plan is successful, it can indeed bring us a large number of compatriots in a short period of time, and alleviate our situation to a certain extent." But this kind of behavior of his is absolutely not allowed by all those in power and vested interest groups!
Even if he turns the entire city into our compatriots, it will only deepen the hatred and resistance of the authorities and vested interests against mutants. Therefore, what greets these new compatriots is not just tolerance and acceptance, but also a potentially devastating catastrophe, such as a nuclear strike!
And most crucially, Magneto's machine now does seem to be able to excite the body's recessive X cells. But any technology that involves the genetic level is not absolutely safe. Councillor Kelly's side is successful, but can you guarantee that all those who have been irradiated by this machine will succeed? Once you fail, do you think of the consequences? It would be a slaughter like no other! ”
That's right, in the world of American comics, after the hands of so many scientists, the machine in the hands of Magneto has become perfect, not only has a variety of energy options, but also has a much higher success rate, so Councilor Kelly is lucky to become the first artificial mutant.
But even if someone succeeded, it didn't change Professor X's mind to stop it, after all, his ability allowed him to understand people's hearts better. Those politicians and vested interests will never allow mutants to appear on a large scale, after all, every new change will inevitably be accompanied by the end of the old vested interest groups, and they will never agree to it.
I have to say that what Professor X thinks does make sense, but he underestimated Magneto, because Magneto's goal was not aimed at those ordinary people in the first place, but at those world dignitaries!
"But if that's the case, I'm afraid we're going to have a full-scale conflict with the Brotherhood, and Magneto will do his best," Beast Hank said in a deep voice.
"I understand, so this time I will also invite some old friends," Professor X said lightly, since he generally knows the purpose of the other party, then he naturally knows that this time is different from the past, with the character of his old opponent, he will definitely do his best, so he can only pull down his face to find some reinforcements.
"There's another question," Jean interjected, "which is Magneto's purpose?" You must know that there are so many cities in the whole country, and the storage time of his machine is only 15 minutes. If we don't know what to do, it's likely that his side has already succeeded, and our side hasn't arrived. ”
"This is indeed the most critical issue, and this is what we will focus on next," Professor X said in a deep voice, "So, let's all get moving, X-Men!" Be sure to find the target Magneto is going to target! ”
"Yes!"
In fact, it is not only his old rival X-Men who is aware of the Brotherhood's abnormal behavior, but also many people and forces who are also aware of it.
Washington, S.H.I.E.L.D. Trident headquarters.
"The mutants of the Brotherhood seem to be overactive lately, have we heard anything from our people?" The One-Eyed Director asked.
Sure enough, although the Brotherhood also has a self-censorship mechanism, it is not impossible to bypass it. So the idea of burying nails in the Brotherhood of Mutants is not only Anthony, but also others, such as S.H.I.E.L.D.
"I'm sorry Director, our status is too low, but I know that they have made a big move recently, and I can't find out what it is." Hill replied with a blank face.
"Gotta figure it out!" The one-eyed director said solemnly: "There must not be a vicious incident like the last time in Manhattan King and Anthony!" ”
"Understood!"
The same topic is being talked about at a golf course in the Hydra industry.
"Any news from our people?" Pierce muttered.
"It's not clear yet," Crossbones reported, "This time Magneto's plan is very deep, I'm afraid even those few Brotherhood leaders probably don't know much, so our people haven't heard anything yet." Judging by some clues, the ultimate goal of their operation this time is likely to be New York. ”
"New York? It's really a troubled place. Pierce made a hole-in-one and smiled.
From this point, it can reflect the strength and weakness of the relationship between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra, which has not found out anything on the side, and Hydra has basically locked the true destination of Magneto, which is no wonder that S.H.I.E.L.D. almost lost all the games in the end.
"Is there anything we need to do?" Crossbone asked.
"There's no need for that," Pierce said as he swung his pole, "and they can't make any big waves." ”
Canada, Military Base for the Dam of Lake Al Kali.
"So those bastards are moving, aren't they?" General William Stryker of the military looked at the information in his hand and said lightly.
"Yes General." The subordinates couldn't help but respond.
Dropping the information on the table, Stryker looked up and asked, "Know what they're up to?" ”
"I don't know, but based on the analysis of our intelligence services, it is very likely that the ultimate goal of their operation is New York." Another analyzed force, although it is because of the relationship between specialization, but S.H.I.E.L.D. still has to work harder.
"New York," General Stryker couldn't help but narrow, "Check me, are there any major events in New York recently?" ”
"Yes!" Soon, with General Stryker's orders, the base's central processing computer quickly began to analyze and summarize, and then under the operation of one operator after another, a series of large-scale events related to New York were all summarized on the large screen in front of Stryker's eyes.
"Could it be this?" After all, it was an old rival, and General Stryker quickly locked on one of the big events: "It's really bold!" Actually eyeing the World Summit! ”
"World Summit? This...... General, do you need us to send someone to stop it? The subordinate was first taken aback when he heard this, and then hurriedly asked.
"Block? No! Why should I block it? Stryker sneered, "I don't know what they're up to, but there's one thing they're getting wrong. That is, the real power holders in most countries are not these superficial politicians at all, but the vested interest groups that are potentially underwater. So no matter what they do, in the end there will be nothing but to provoke the real predators of these countries!
If their actions were doomed to be in vain, why should I stop them? I'm hoping for a success in their plan now, because that's how he can really anger the real rulers of those countries! ”
"Understood!"
On the other side, somewhere in a laboratory beneath the Stan's Military-Industrial Complex building, Dr. Fashion was putting the finishing touches on some of the machines he had prepared for this time.
And Hisoka was watching the mutants and street heroes that haunted New York through the hidden cameras in the streets and alleys of the cloth, while shaking and letting out a weird laugh.
This also made the vodka on the side can't help but lower the brim of the top hat again. There's no way, although he is a thought beast that can be resurrected after death, but in the face of these two perverts, he still can't help but feel that he is under a lot of pressure.
The war on New York's side has officially entered a countdown state, and Anthony's side has also begun their oriental fantasy journey.
