Chapter 209: The Meeting Begins
On the day the Avengers negotiated with the X-Men, Captain America marched in the direction of the Mutant Academy with a division of U.S. infantry. All the soldiers www.biquge.info are fully armed, and the helicopter gunships and main battle tanks work together with the infantry to open the way, and the momentum is more like a large army on the front line.
"We don't need so many convoys." Captain America, who was sitting in the presidential Cadillac DTS car, looked out the window dissatisfiedly and said, in his opinion, such fanfare is not necessary, the purpose of this trip is just to explain that the previous attack has nothing to do with the US government, how much effort can be spent?
However, General Ross, who was sitting next to him, reminded him, "Don't be so lax, Captain. You are now representing the entire United States with mutants, and their normal chat with Cyclops is of a very different nature. β
At the same time, General Ross pointed to the convoy behind him and said, "Even if you think this is a small thing, the group of American diplomats in the back don't think so." Without this level of military protection, you don't even want to call them to a place where Magneto is there. β
"Yes, Magneto." Captain America looked melancholy ahead and muttered to himself, "I believe that Cyclops is just a momentary daz, and soon we can continue to fight side by side and end the era of division between humans and mutants together." β
"I hope so." General Ross replied nonchalantly.
Soon, the gates of the Mutant Academy appeared in the field of vision of Captain America and others. Today, the exterior walls of this British castle still bear the traces of damage from the last battle, and the dilapidated school building seems to be releasing invisible smoke.
And behind this open door, hordes of mutants lined up waiting for Captain America's arrival. It's just that from their eyes, Captain America clearly sees the eyes of vigilance and hatred, which is a very rare situation for him as an idol of the United States.
Captain America stepped out of the car, raised his hand to signal all the soldiers to stand back, and entered the courtyard of the Mutant Academy with only General Ross and a few American diplomats. At this time, the first person to be printed was actually the one Captain America didn't want to see - Magneto.
"Hello, Captain." Magneto didn't make any overstepping gestures, but instead extended his hand to Captain America in a friendly greeting.
However, Captain America did not respond to Magneto's kindness, refusing to shake hands with the other party, saying, "I thought I was here to negotiate with the X-Men." β
"Hehe, now I'm one of them." Magneto's hostility towards Captain America was unsurprising, and he withdrew his palm and said briefly. The mutant students who heard this suddenly became excited, eager to cheer and shout at Magneto.
After the previous incident of Magneto turning the tide, he has already accumulated unparalleled prestige among the mutant students, and Magneto's statement naturally made all the mutants present feel very relieved, only the laser as the captain of the X-Men looked very uncomfortable.
In order to redeem his leadership position, Cyclops quickly rushed to the front and talked to Captain America, "Hello, Captain. It's a pleasure for you to be able to negotiate with us in person, we need to talk so badly. β
Seeing Magneto being replaced, the mutants' expressions instantly became indifferent. Gazing at Captain America with a cold gaze and Cyclops who stepped forward to talk, Cyclops felt a humiliation that he had never suffered since he became the captain of the X-Men.
Someone even whispered in the back: "What we need is not negotiations, but an apology from the government!" β
This whispered sentence caused many mutants to nod their heads in agreement, and seeing this situation, Captain America couldn't help frowning and asked: "Scott, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs may have already stated it, and now I swear to you in my personal capacity that this Sky Carrier attack was definitely not ordered by me." β
"I trust you, Captain." Lasereye immediately expressed his continued support for Captain America, but he was still reluctant to be hostile to the great superhero.
However, at this time, a discordant voice was once again heard among the students behind Laser Eye: "How long have you been the president of the United States, maybe this is a surprise operation that the US government has been planning for a long time." β
"Don't talk too much!" Cyclops couldn't help but turn around and curse loudly.
But when Magneto heard this, he immediately stood up, firmly protected the group of students, and said to Cyclophalo: "Scott, don't be too arbitrary, this is a negotiation about the fate of all mutants, and their voices should not be buried." β
"Damn, I'm arbitrary?" The young and vigorous Cyclops didn't expect to be blamed like this, but fortunately, Captain America grabbed him at this time, and blocked the harsher words he wanted to say next.
"Your attack was an incident that happened during my tenure, and if it was an absolute attack by the U.S. military, I couldn't have known about it." Captain America explained to all the mutants present, but such thin words were clearly not enough to answer all the questions.
One cadet asked maliciously, "So what if Congress hides it from you?" β
"Alas," Captain America sighed, knowing that he had come up with the plan he had discussed with Tony, "you can return the wreckage of the Sky Carrier to us, and then send a scientist to work with Tony Stark to extract the data from the computer inside, so that it is clear which side is operating the Sky Carrier." β
As a result, the situation that was in the heart of Chen Lu appeared. Just as a group of mutants, including Magneto, were nodding in agreement after thinking for a few seconds, Katie the Phantom Cat, who had been warned of this situation by Chen Lu in advance, stood up and said:
"Really? Give you back the corpses and destroy the traces? β
"Huh?" Captain America didn't guess for a while that the other party would misinterpret his good intentions like this, and quickly explained to the phantom cat: "No, no, no, I said, you mutants will also send a scientist over as a witness to prove that we will not do anything." β
"That's right, scientistγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" The phantom cat's delicate face showed a smile that seemed to be a smile, and he turned to the many mutants and asked, "Okay guys, please tell me who will be the first thing you think of when it comes to mutant scientists?" β
Many of the mutant cadets looked at each other and didn't understand what kind of consciousness this was, but there was little else for them to choose a mutant scientist. Soon a bespectacled mutant with long legs and blue skin resembling a gorilla stepped forward and stood in front as the X-Men's most well-known scientist.
X-Men member Hank McCoy, the mutant beast, is the greatest scientist among mutants.
