33. Division
The atmosphere in Professor Charles's office has become quite depressing, it stands to reason that a person of Nick Fury's level should not be as angry as Cyber, but now, Cyber is threatening him with the lives of the three best agents under his command to give in, which makes Director Fury feel extremely unhappy, of course he has not forgotten that he sent Hawkeye to threaten Cyber, but these two things are obviously not of the same nature.
"You're doing something dangerous, Cyber Hawke, you're provoking S.H.I.E.L.D.'s bottom line!"
Fury sat back in his chair, his right eye staring at Cyber, the seriousness that came from it felt like a knife scraping against his skin, Cyber played with a pair of glasses in his hand, he grinned nonchalantly, revealing a pleasant smile,
"You say I'm provoking your bottom line?"
Sai More, rubbing his chin, looked at Nick Fury quizzically, "Do you really have that thing? If you say, then I'm sure you're not a good agent, and S.H.I.E.L.D. led by someone with a bottom line won't be a good spy organization! ”
He stood up, his purple nightgown sliding over his body, he pointed to his heart and whispered,
"Or, send your elite killers to kill me, and walk out of here with Anna Marie and everything you want. ”
"Or, take what you can..."
Saibo spread his hands and said "sincerely", "Look, I'm a mutant, a freak in your mouth, a scumbag, a thief... I'm not a bottom-line person, so you'd better hurry up and make a decision, lest I kill poor Coulson when I'm in a bad mood or in a good mood, you know, I'm a madman... Isn't it?"
"Ah, I'm a little confused right now, is this the territory of the Xavier family, or the territory of Cyber Hawke?"
Director Fury didn't panic at all, Cyber bet on the hole cards, he also had them, he took out two photos from his pocket and put them on the table in front of Professor Charles, then stretched out his hands, supported his chin, and said slowly,
"You're mutants, but we never said you were freaks... It's a pity that ordinary citizens don't see it that way, you see, they're marching around the city hall and in the streets of Washington, D.C., and they're going to want us to expel you from this country... I don't want to do that myself, you see, Professor, I'm here with good intentions, I'm here to solve problems, not to threaten anyone with like to kill me or me out. ”
He glanced at Cyber,
"The next time you threaten someone, come up with something substantial..."
Cyber smiled, a hint of playfulness flashed in his eyes,
"You want to be substantial?"
"Yes! Catherine!"
Cyber shouted, and the little girl in the black cat mask carried Hawkeye like a dead dog through the wall and walked into the office, Cyber took out a gun from his pocket, opened the safe, and put it against Hawkeye's head,
"I'll give you something substantial... Maybe you can pray, maybe this gun isn't loaded. ”
Fury's eyes became dangerous,
"Patton is dead... At least a thousand mutants will pay for him!"
"What?"
Saiber put his left hand to his ear and said in confusion, "Did you say that to me? I'm sorry, those thousand mutants don't die... What does it have to do with me?"
He moved his arms comfortably in Fury's cannibalistic gaze, "Okay, there's too much nonsense, let's count down... 10、9、8...”
The atmosphere in the room became solemn again, and Cyber's countdown hit Fury's heart like a low bell, and the latter's fists slowly clenched, and Cyber looked at him and grinned,
"The next time you threaten someone, it's better to come up with something substantial..."
"Bang"
The bullet grazed Hawkeye's ear, leaving a bloody trail on his ear, and Cyber shrugged his shoulders and gave Nick Fury an apologetic smile,
"Sorry, missed, let's do it again. ”
"12 Tomahawk missiles are already aimed here ..."
Fury spoke again, but Cyberberry ignored him, and he waved his hand like a fly.
"Tomahawk missiles can't kill me, not even anyone here, but poor Barton is going to die, it's a shame he's still so young..."
Cyber looked at Fury and put the smoke-emitting muzzle of the gun behind Barton's head, "He shouldn't have just died, you think so, right?"
"You will become a public enemy of the United States!"
Fury accentuated his voice, and Cyber's voice was louder than his,
"The last public enemy was locked up in the basement here, do you want me to release him again, you talk to him about this, and see what he has to say to you?"
Cyber raised a middle finger at Fury,
"Look, I'm here with good intentions, look at me, Nick Fury, do you really think someone like me cares about the lives of three agents? I've given you enough time, get out of here with your stuff! or kill me!"
"You're going to start a war between mutants and humans!
Fury stood up, his tall stature and murderous voice made the atmosphere of the house tense to the point of bursting, and Cyber glared back with his eyes without fear,
"War? No, the war never stops! Don't whitewash the peace here, it's us who killed Magneto, not you! It's us who saved the city, it's not you! Who right do you have to yell at me here? War? Let your ordinary army come!"
Cyber clenched his fists and swung them in the air, and the veins on his neck erupted.
"Let's see if you're born fast!Or are we killing fast!War? You deserve to bring up war! You scum who let madmen slaughter mutant children deserve to bring up war in front of me! If it weren't for your good hiding, Fury... Will you still be alive until now?"
"Don't pretend to be a tough guy in front of me!I've seen a lot of your kind of goods!You don't have anything to threaten me, everything about you is useless, that's what this game is all about, you have to make a choice!"
Cyber's finger was on the trigger and he looked at Fury with a cold expression, "And my patience is limited, Fury, don't think everyone is a professor so good at talking, you saw a mutant maniac last night, and now you see another!
The scene was very awkward at one point, and yes, the negotiations reached an impasse.
In the face of Cyber's accusation, Fury's dark skin also had a rare flush, but he couldn't refute it, he didn't know about Stryker's experiments with mutant children earlier than Professor Charles, but not to mention what he really thought, at least the matter itself is irrefutable, this is a rare scandal in American history, once it is revealed, a bunch of old men from the Department of Defense and even Congress will have to leave class.
"Alright... Cyber, don't be so impulsive. ”
Professor Charles waved his hand, and after the red-faced singing, it was time for the white face to appear, and he said to Fury gently, "You see, Cyber doesn't agree, you really can't take Mary, I can only hand over the instrument and Eric to you, and you have to promise that you won't hurt Eric, otherwise the Brotherhood will riot, and I can't clean up the mess." ”
"Also, what the hell is the Mutant Registration Act, cancel it!"
Cyber added coldly, speaking of this "Mutant Registration Act", this thing is famous, the California mutant riot 3 years ago was so big because of this thing, Congress announced that every mutant in the territory must register their identity and ability, this is undoubtedly an open discrimination against mutants, treating them as aliens, it was a trial at the time, and it was finally shelved when the riot was going on.
But this time, when the world leaders met, it was brought up again, which was also discussed by Cyberber and Professor Charles, and this thing should not appear, at least in this special period.
"It can't be!"
Fury slapped the table hard, "Don't forget, Charles, this is a mess up by you mutants! Things that could have been negotiated are now unavoidable, otherwise the people will make more trouble." ”
"But it's also the mess we're picking up!"
Cyber retorted forcefully, mocking, "Negotiable, you haven't shown any room for negotiation in the past three years, that's the bottom line! Don't think that we don't take risks when we hand over our compatriots to you, you have to understand that Eric falling into your hands is equivalent to transferring the pressure of the mutant brotherhood to Professor Charles." ”
"Don't take everyone for a fool, Nick Fury!"
"Then you kill them!"
Fury waved his hand, and he walked indifferently to the window,
"Kill Coulson, Patton and Normanov, then kill me, you will get everything you want, and then there will be war, and ordinary people and mutants will go to sharp extremes, and there will be no room for relaxation in blood feuds, see if you can kill us all, or if we exterminate you... No matter how powerful a mutant is, 10 nuclear bombs will definitely be done, Professor, do you know how many nuclear bombs the government has in its hands?"
"Professor, do you want to see the situation you have spent decades creating ruined by the threats and nonsense of a madman? They're all hopes for the future, and they shouldn't just die, right?"
"Control him!Professor!"
Cyber whispered, "Control him, the peace we want, he has the scandal of all the governments of the whole world in his hands, with those things, we have bargaining chips, we only need to control him! It's also for your ideals, it's only one step away!"
"Would you do that, Professor?"
Fury turned around, he looked at Professor Charles, and he could see that the professor himself was thinking, and he lost no time in saying,
"I can't promise you to stop the implementation of the Mutant Registration Act, but I can do my best to arrange a private meeting for you with Mr. President and members of Congress, and you can convince them, Charles, that I believe you have what it takes. ”
"Uh..."
Professor Charles glanced at Fury, and finally, he breathed a sigh of relief,
"Take your men with you, Fury... Remember what you promised me. ”
"Of course. ”
Nick Fury also breathed a sigh of relief visibly, he walked past Cyber's side with an indifferent expression, and picked up the beaten and swollen Patton, a moment later, a large silver-white container was towed into the helicopter by the trailer, Cyber stood by the window, watching the helicopter disappear into the sky, he turned around and looked at the professor,
"You've lost one of your best opportunities, professor... It will never be again. ”
"But that's war, Cyber, I understand you're doing it for my good, but if I wanted to, I could have done it decades ago, when it was simpler than it is now, but it's not like this, we need a future that is not based on lies and deception. ”
Professor Charles closed his eyes slightly, and he whispered,
"That's the best outcome, S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't as simple as you think, Nick Fury has other cards in his hand that haven't been played, and if it hadn't happened suddenly, we wouldn't have had such a good chance, and for that, we owe Eric a lot of thanks. ”
"We sold our compatriots in exchange for this?"
Cyber shook his head, and there was a bitter smile on his face, "Professor, you're thinking too much about everything... You know what? I'm starting to regret joining your side, Eric is better suited to be a leader than you, at least he's never afraid of war, and you... You don't want anyone to bleed, you don't want anyone to die, you're like a beast that only growls at hunters, will they give up hunting you out of fear?"
"There is no bloodshed, there is no peace... I'm sorry, professor, but I've gotten used to doing things by looking only at the results, not at the process. ”
Cyberber took one last look at Professor Charles, who closed his eyes and brood, and he turned and walked towards the door, "And I can't accept this result, so... I'm quitting, you're right, we've probably never been the same kind of people. ”
