Chapter 46: Hitting the Nail
Steve's ward, Director Nick and Steve lying on the hospital bed couldn't help but be stunned when they watched the 'live broadcast', although most of the mutants are not opponents of the army, but the strength of these high-level mutants is really not covered.
A mere Magneto has reduced the protection level of the entire Alcatraz by more than half, and there is a qualitative difference between non-metallic weapons and metallic weapons after all.
"Sir, is it possible that the enemies we will face in the future will be of this level?" Steve is a little lacking in confidence, although he is strong, but he is not easy to fight against any of the high-level mutants, especially that Ying Ao and Magneto, the former is merciful and plays himself with a halberd, he has no power to fight back, if it weren't for the shield, he would have hung up.
And Magneto...... His shield is made of metal, and while this metal is very special, it can also be controlled by Magneto.
"Uh, I'm not sure about that." Director Nick was quite speechless, Jocelyn was making trouble in the Middle World, destroying many spokesmen of civilization, and fulfilling the Council in disguise, so the Council actually sat back and enjoyed its success.
However, the work that originally belonged to those forces was also undertaken by the council, which means that this level of battle will probably be encountered often in the future.
"......" Steve rolled his eyes.
"But the council is a big loss this time, more than a dozen genetic warriors, and a good commander, oh shit, I forgot that this group of scum never cared about this." Nick was still gloating, but immediately thought of something and burst into a foul mouth.
"Sir, what's my next mission?" Steve asked, glancing at the mutants who had begun to retreat.
"You? Stay here honestly, it's me, I'm afraid I'll have to let me go through this negotiation again. Nick patted Steve and left the room.
……
Ying Ao arrived at the mutant school, Magneto is reorganizing the mutant brotherhood, this battle casualties are quite large, but the survivors are the elites, and the elites who have really experienced the battle, so the combat effectiveness of the mutant brotherhood does not decrease but rises.
However, this has little to do with Ying Ao, although Magneto has agreed to join the witcher, but only himself, and other mutants decide whether to join according to their own wishes, and most mutants do not have much interest in the witcher profession.
Come to think of it, pin your head to your belt every day, if it weren't for the council going too far this time, most mutants wouldn't have chosen to join Magneto's mutant brotherhood.
According to the statistics done by Professor Charles, there are more than 10,000 mutants in the United States, but the number of people who have actually joined the mutant brotherhood is only a few hundred, and many of these hundreds of people are not interested in fighting, and the reason why they stood up is to resist the cure, and now not to mention the dead mutants, more than half of the nearly 100 mutants who are still alive have chosen to leave.
Magneto can't do anything about it, after all, this battle is still fighting for the status of the mutant race, even if you can't get the superior status, you have to get an equal status.
After eliminating the mutant cure, the source of this crisis, most people have no reason to stay in the mutant brotherhood, especially since the war has killed many of their friends.
Although they said that they might come back if necessary in the future, they needed time to heal their trauma, and they chose to leave temporarily.
It is worth mentioning that the mutants who left were not much different from ordinary people, and those who had a strange appearance because of the mutant genes chose to stay, unlike those mutants who were able to hide in human society, they felt the presence of home in the Brotherhood, so they did not leave, but at the same time they were not very interested in becoming witchers.
"I heard you were called to Africa by S.H.I.E.L.D.? Did the mission go well? As soon as Ying Ao entered the door, he saw Logan, who looked very different from the past, without the edge of the past, but even more vicissitudes.
"It's okay, a couple of small robots the size of puppies, clearly diverting our attention. Looking for a professor? Logan shrugged his shoulders.
"yes, I don't know if the council is going to push that unlucky guy out this time. Come and watch the play, and by the way, talk to the professor about the holy war between the two major churches. "Before Ying Ao arrived, he received a message from Albert that Jocelyn had once again ambushed one of the logistics points of the Church of Light, but it seemed that Jocelyn was a little overstretched in the face of these two powerful churches.
The desire to fight drove Ying Ao to find an opponent in this holy war, but reason told Ying Ao that if he intervened in the holy war at this time, he would be crushed by two huge forces and there would be no scum left.
As for the Mutant Brotherhood, only a few people are willing to help, and even Magneto himself is not very interested in this matter, after all, Magneto's desire is to improve the status of mutants, not to participate in the Holy War.
The reason why he showed favor to Ying Ao was just to use Ying Ao's identity and strength to bargain with the council.
Ying Ao, who touched the nail at Magneto, naturally set her sights on Professor Charles.
Unlike Magneto, who focuses on mutant status, Professor Charles is peace-loving, so a little trick should be able to pull the X-Men into his camp.
"Professor Charles, how are you talking with S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Ying Ao walked into Professor Charles's office.
"It's not great, but the curative matter is in the past, but the Council is determined to have Magneto under their control." Professor Charles seemed a little upset.
"Looks like I'm here at the right time." Ying Ao's eyes lit up when she heard Professor Charles's complaints.
"Oh? Do you have any good ideas? Professor Charles looked at Ying Ao.
"It's not a good idea, but letting the council know more about the jihad between the two churches might give them a lot of relief." Ying Ao said with a smile.
"Huh?" Professor Charles looked at Ying Ao in surprise.
"It's been a while since the two major churches started the holy war, but because of the problem of concept and the level of technology, the council doesn't seem to know the true strength of the two major churches, and it should be considered that it is just a battle similar to a gangster fight, after all, the council without a certain background doesn't know the fundamental meaning of this holy war, especially the initiator of the holy war is Desaka, the son of God." Ying Ao projected information about the holy war on the blackboard beside her.
"Oh my God, is DeSaka crazy? Building a Kingdom of God? I thought the old books were just a slight exaggeration. Charles, as a spiritual mutant, quickly skimmed through the information that Ying Ao showed him.
