236. Registration Act

White House, South Lawn.

The vast lawn, collectively known as the "President's Garden," is covered with shrubs and trees, a pond in the center, in which a fountain spews pearls and jade, and the south gate is flanked by leafy magnolia trees, which have a long history of nearly 150 years, and can be called a witness to the United States.

On a sunny day, New York's major television stations sent reporters with long guns and short cannons, and a crowd of cameras surrounded the prominent platform where the speeches were made, on which stood the White House spokesman, who was talking eloquently, nostalgic for the United States' past and imagining a better future.

It wasn't until the long and tedious official speech was over that the reporters picked up their spirits, and the cameras focused on the bald old man in a wheelchair who had been pushed onto the stage, and Charlestam was in front of everyone's eyes, and his speech today would be broadcast to thousands of households, and then cause great turmoil across the North American continent.

Perhaps, as Sean said, peace begins with the first steps, and a certain level of sacrifice must be made to change the status quo of mutants.

"My name is Charles Xavier and I'm a mutant......"

The first sentence was like a boulder smashed into the sea, setting off a raging wave, the flash lights kept cutting, and Sean, who was sitting in the audience, watched it all silently.

“…… Mutants are not unique individuals, they are a thriving race, and as nuclear fallout looms over the planet, the genes of humans continue to mutate, and this is what gave birth to us - like you, mutants are neither an incurable disease nor a curse from God, we are just one step ahead of the curve. ”

In fact, mutants are not uncommon, especially in recent years, there have been more and more mutant children, which fully proves that we are indestructible and do not need to be eliminated. Because every mutant, they are from among humans, there is no difference between the two. ”

Charles didn't hold the microphone, his voice resounded in everyone's head, and this amazing speech also followed countless radio waves, into thousands of households, and many newlyweds in front of the TV were full of worries, if mutants really come from genetic mutations in the body, then it means that everyone has the possibility of becoming mutants.

In this case, who exactly are they repelling and fighting?

A smile tugged at the corner of Sean's mouth, when humans understand that they may be thrown into an exclusionary and discriminatory class at any time, the hostility towards mutants will naturally be greatly weakened, which is the first step towards peace between the two races.

In the animal world, lions do not accept sheep, and lambs do not believe in lions, and it is only when they realize that they belong to the same group that the underlying hostility and vigilance that comes from deep within them gradually disappears.

“…… We have been hiding all our lives, afraid of being exposed to the eyes of the people, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Paris Peace Summit...... Mutants have been present in every part of history, but we have never officially stood in front of the world and announced our existence to the public. ”

Charles's eyes were filled with deep remembrance, and he remembered fighting alongside his friend Eric, constantly searching for his compatriots, forming the first generation of X-Men to fight against Sebastian Shaw, who was trying to push for the outbreak of nuclear war, and he was at his most energetic youth, full of hope and confidence, believing that the bright future he had in mind was about to be realized.

But after that battle, he and Eric went in two different directions, and until now, it is difficult to prove who is right and who is wrong, and they are fighting for the same goal, the former hoping to make peace by retreating, and the latter wanting to achieve their goals with violence.

The Professor and Magneto are still on the same path, but in different directions, and in the end they are both on the same path, all for the future of mutants.

"Fellow mutants, my dear brothers and sisters, you may know my name, or you may have never heard my story...... But I ask you today to stand up! There is no need to continue to hide, no need to continue to wander, no need to be afraid of the eyes of others who hate or disgust. ”

"We can also walk on the road with our heads held high, go to school, work, start a family, get married and have children...... This is a right that we are born with and that no one can take away. ”

Charles looked at the young man in the audience, and there was a hint of longing in his complicated eyes, he hoped that his decision was the right one, and not to lead his compatriots to the abyss of destruction.

Humans have failed him more than once, so the world's most powerful psychic controller has experienced countless inner torments and repeated doubts before making this decision with difficulty.

"I would like to promise you that mutants will not be attacked in any way, Washington, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago...... You will no longer be an outlier living in these cities, and I work with the White House to ensure that the rights of mutants will be protected, as long as you take the first step. ”

The loud and generous speech, like a pebble falling into the surface of a lake, ripples in circles, the mutant registration bill that has been brewing for a long time will be officially passed today, and one of the leaders of mutants, Charles Xavier, has become the first mutant to publicly identify himself.

Immediately afterwards, the younger generation of X-Men in the school took the stage, read their names aloud to the cameras broadcast live to the world, and signed the solemn bill authorized by the White House.

"My name is Auroro Monro......"

"My name is Scott Summers......"

"My name is Jean-Grey......"

"—I'm a mutant!"

Magneto, who was in the underground prison, stared at the screen of the TV set, watched the whole process, and sighed after a while and said, "Charles......"

This is the end he could not have imagined, the old friend who had been fighting with him for most of his life, finally chose to believe in humanity, cooperated with the government, promoted the implementation of the mutant registration bill, and even issued a call to his compatriots.

"Can your innocence be exchanged for human kindness?" Magneto sneered, his low voice echoing.

If humanity betrays again, then Charles's reputation and reputation accumulated throughout his life will be completely destroyed, and he will become a traitor among mutants, nailed to the pillar of shame forever, and cursed by other people.

And the respected professor himself will also bear a heavy burden of sin, and can no longer be redeemed, but can only sink into self-blame and remorse and die.

This is a very risky gamble, if you change the previous professor, it is impossible to agree, but in Sean's memory glimpses countless futures, Charles was forced to make a choice, he can no longer remain silent, at least to fight for a visible future for his compatriots, whether it is a happy ending or a cruel end.

Magneto, who picked up the newspaper, bowed his head and pondered, Charles has already begun to act, so what about himself? Do you really want to stay in this underground prison until you die of old age?

Thinking of Sean's choice, the leader of the Brotherhood frowned, and then sighed helplessly, maybe he should have to make a compromise too. ()
