Chapter 23 Please care more about the marginalized groupsThank you
The Goddess of Death doesn't stay on Earth forever, but she does take an interest in this seemingly inconspicuous planet of life.
"There are a lot of interesting characters here, and I'm looking forward to seeing how they will perform when death comes." That's what Goddess Death said to Lucy, and the wayward god left, not caring about what the remnants of his divine power would do to Earth.
However, it is true that the lives of ordinary people have not been affected, but S.H.I.E.L.D. has entered a state of emergency alert after detecting Lucy's energy reaction to conflict with mutants.
Nick Fury touched his bald head, this kind of hierarchical conflict could easily turn into a "race war" between mutants and humans, which was also the result of what he had always wanted to avoid.
Mutants are not unusable in the eyes of the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. chief.
Thankfully, Lucy's energy eventually converged, which reassured him a little, but it was foreseeable that S.H.I.E.L.D. would need to make a lot of effort to improve its relationship with mutants, especially with Magneto.
Mutants are such a sensitive race, once there is a little bit of trouble, they will shrink with all their might, which is also the result of long-term persecution on the human side, 70% of the cases of super-common sense harm suffered by ordinary people are related to mutants, and 80% of them can be classified as self-inflicted.
Many people don't realize that bullying mutants is not "cool" at all, especially for those "bad students" in community schools, bullying "weirdos" is a matter of course.
Mutants will mostly be "weirdos".
If you really want to force an analogy, these people are probably keen to poke hornet's nests, and after being stung, they will call on others to exterminate hornets.
However, everyone knows that the reason why people are really reluctant to accept mutants is jealousy, jealousy to the point of madness, especially Logan, that kind of "immortality" ability does not know how many careerists have attracted the attention of many careerists, and the smooth implementation of the "X weapon" plan has a lot to do with the operation of these people.
"Why don't you show up when you're here?" In Los Angeles, in a well-furnished apartment, Lucy said unhappily into the shadowy corner of the wall.
"I'm sorry, but I have an obligation to keep those children safe." Professor Xavier emerged from the shadows in a wheelchair and spoke in a flat tone, intending to make up for his relationship with Lucy.
"Kid? I don't think those people are children anymore. Lucy hates people who can't take responsibility for their actions, especially since they need to have a disabled old man take responsibility for them.
Although this old man is indeed a lot stronger than them.
"Hmph." Professor Xavier smiled, "Yes, they are not children anymore, but it seems to me that they have grown up very well, which is what I am most proud of." Professor Xavier is very proud of the X-Men he has trained.
"So, you grew into a beast that doesn't do things without a brain?" Lucy raised an eyebrow.
"Uh." Professor Xavier also paused, that one was indeed a big problem, he still remembered the experience of going to a bar with Eric to invite Logan when he was younger, and then being scolded away by a swear word.
"Logan is really reckless at times, but because of his abilities and previous experiences, he is actually a good person." Professor Xavier weighed the language and finally chose the phrase "good good man".
"Well, let it go before, and now, Professor Xavier, why did you come to me after rejecting my kindness?" Lucy spread his hands, and for this old man, he didn't mind chatting a little longer.
"What exactly is that 'Goddess of Death' today?" Professor Xavier's expression also became serious, this was a powerful presence he had never seen before, "Also, why did you come to the human world?" β
Professor Xavier was still nervous when he said this, and his choice to come to Lucy meant that he recognized Lucy's identity as a Seraph, and Professor Xavier was a believer himself.
"First question." Lucy held out his index finger.
"The goddess of death is one of the five supreme gods in this universe, who controls the death of the entire universe, and this time she came to earth because of the death of a great person." Lucy thought of the ancient mage, and he was also a little sad, he didn't have a deep intersection with the other party, but he also admired the firmness of this supreme mage to protect the earth.
"Great people?" Xavier can't think of anyone worthy of a cosmic god, politician? Wealthy businessman? It's all a bit of a notch, right?
"A powerful mage who has guarded the earth for hundreds of years, you don't need to know too much about her, and those who don't have mage talent should not get involved in those things." This is not alarmist, mysterious events may not cause as much damage as modern weapons, but they are basically incomprehensible to non-spellcasters, even mutants, and in terms of weird abilities, mutants cannot compare to mages.
"Okay." Professor Xavier nodded, he wasn't the kind of person who couldn't control his curiosity.
"As for why I'm here......" The road is a little twisty.
"Actually, I'm just lost, I'm actually looking for my way back to heaven."
ββ¦β¦β
"That's it?" Professor Xavier was incredulous.
"That's all." Lucy's mentality changed quickly, and now he looks like he is right.
"......" Professor Xavier fell silent, but Lucy could tell in his eyes that he was thinking quickly.
"Me, can you ask a question?" Eventually, Professor Xavier spoke.
"Say!" Lucy made a bold appearance.
"God, I mean, did that one, well, forsake us, forsake us?" In just one sentence, Professor Xavier stumbled.
"God never forsakes His children." That's for sure, "but I want to tell you that the God I serve is not in this universe, and He doesn't meddle in other universes." β
Lucy is not a cosmic existence and will not cause the universe itself to revolt, but the Lord is different, first of all, if he wants to leave his original universe, he must find someone to support heaven and earth in his place, unless he is willing to open the heavens again.
Then, since Yahweh is fully capable of seizing ownership of any universe, any non-native universe will instinctively resist Yahweh's entry, and if there is a cosmic being in another universe, it is impossible for even God to win on someone else's home turf.
So Jehovah chose to wait instead of taking action to find Lucie, who was lost in the void.
"Is thisβis that so......" Professor Xavier was momentarily disappointed, then breathed a sigh of relief as if he had figured something out.
"It seems that we did not become mutants because we were 'abandoned', and our efforts were not useless." Professor Xavier is not a mutant leader, and his mentality is rare in the world.
Although Professor Xavier had proposed in his youth something like "Mutants are the evolution of humans. Such a theory, but decades of experience made him doubt himself a little.
"Professor." Lucy didn't mind giving his own advice, the mutants' plight was still very sympathetic. "I think you seem to have been led astray by that friend of yours, and mutants can't integrate into this society by force."
"You're right, I've always been against the use of force to force the government to agree to our existence, but to stop Eric from making things worse, I need the X-Men to fight the Mutant Brotherhood." Xavier also has a headache when he talks about this topic, and he knows Erik's conceit all too well, that is, an old stubborn who does not listen to persuasion!
"Modern society, it is no longer the era of 'who can fight the most', at least for an individual, this is not the case, the future of mutants should not be a weapon, your ability can obviously have a greater effect." Lucy said sincerely.
"But no one trusts us." Professor Xavier smiled wryly. The beast is a brilliant scientist, and his title of "professor" is more than just words, but more often than not, no one wants to work with a brute with blue fur all over his body, or someone who can read your heart at any time.
"So I'm not saying this to you." Lucy smiled.
"I'm sorry, but we have S.H.I.E.L.D. restrictions." Nick Fury walked out, and when it came to concealment, he was much better than Professor Xavier.
"A gadget that will get away from your detection." The head of the agent showed the old man in the wheelchair the new S.H.I.E.L.D. equipment.
But Professor Xavier smiled and pressed his finger to his temple, a movement he would only do when he was really serious.
"Bang!" The gadget in Nick Fury's hand exploded in one fell swoop, but he didn't really care about it, just shook his head, and sat down as well.
"I can only allow a small number of mutants to participate in S.H.I.E.L.D., and we're under a lot of pressure." The head of the agent spoke first.
"It's a shame that most mutants just as distrust humans, especially governments." Aside from others, Professor Xavier himself doesn't trust S.H.I.E.L.D., but he knows what kind of existence is hidden in that organization.
"So you're frozen like that, and you're frozen for decades?" Lucy's words embarrassed both of them, but they had to admit it.
"Well, in that case, I have a proposal." Lucy raised his hand. "Since this is a social problem, then we must solve it in the same way as a social problem."
"What is the solution to a social problem?" Nick Fury asked curiously, a word he usually only hears in the mouths of politicians.
"Money!" Lucy said categorically.
At least in the United States, where capital is the dominant factor in everything, how can such a "minority" be protected without climbing to the top of the country?
The other two looked at each other, waiting for Lucy's next explanation.
