Chapter 275: Magneto on Heroes
(Ahhh I'm guilty...... )
Along the way, Tony Stark's private jet set off for Bermuda, and while chatting with Professor X, Magneto Eric Lansel also paid attention to the performance of the other two.
The American team was still frowning, and would look at him a few times from time to time. Magneto knew very well that the other party should be worried about what mess he might cause next. It can be seen that the American team does have a very strong position as rumored. Although they were forced to take him out by the pressure of the alien invaders, the attitude of the American team was obvious. The other party will keep an eye on him, watching his every move, so that he does not have the possibility of doing evil.
To be honest, he Magneto doesn't mean to "do evil" for the time being. But after defeating the invaders, that's not for sure.
He laughed at the thought of this—there was no doubt that there would be plenty of opportunities to belong to the Mutant Brotherhood long after defeating the invaders.
When the Zetarians invaded New York, Magneto was not involved, but he knew the general situation. It was the first time that life on Earth had open contact with aliens, and it almost suffered a catastrophe, which can be described as fresh in my memory. It was that experience that led to the current union of all parties.
On the side of ordinary human beings, the United Nations has basically agreed on the matter of joint troop dispatch. In the early stages of the war, they will be responsible for most of the logistics, cooperating with the troops on the other side. And when it comes to the last moment, they will continue to fight to the last soldier. The "last moment" here is naturally the time when the supernatural coalition forces are completely defeated. The latter is at the same time the so-called "other side of the army".
Unlike the United Nations in the world of ordinary people. Hatred between nations often ends with the passage of time and the flow of interests, but the supernatural world is different. Most of them are individuals with strong personal colors. Now under the pressure of aliens, the crisis of the whole planet, and a number of other reasons, they will put aside their hatred and conflict and huddle together. However, this will only be temporary. If the war is lost, or on the verge of defeat. Naturally, there is nothing to say, it is rare for each to escape. If the war is finally won, it may well be the beginning of another dark age. All kinds of backlog of contradictions will erupt in an instant, and all kinds of post-facto investigations and various grand reckonings will occur one after another.
When that happens, the Mutant Brotherhood will be able to take advantage of the chaos.
For this kind of chaotic situation that is very likely to occur, Magneto believes that Team America, Professor X and others can predict it. It's just that now they're all temporarily avoiding forcing themselves not to think about it.
Is it possible to finally develop feelings between comrades-in-arms in the process of confronting the enemy together? And then laugh at the grudge? Magneto scoffed at this.
Magneto also analyzed the character of the American team from the incident. Although the ability of the American team does not pose much threat to him, the influence of the other party is still worthy of his attention. Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, can you not be defeated in a hundred battles?
As for Iron Man Tony Stark, who was sitting opposite the American team, Magneto thought that after his previous provocation, even if the other party would not act immediately, he would find an opportunity to taunt him and get back on the field. But the planes were about to reach Bermuda, and the taunt still didn't happen.
Magneto had heard of Tony Stark before. Not to mention the Playboy era before 08, and then after being born as Iron Man, Tony Stark's performance has matured a lot. At least. There is no such thing as sleeping all the cover girls of "Maxims" again. But looking at Stark's deeds -- especially the little news beyond the sensational rescue stories -- one can see that the other side is strictly speaking a man with a better position than the American team. If given the opportunity, the U.S. team will look for criminals all over the streets, just like the United States, which plays the role of "world policeman" in the international community. Of course, the latter is in politics. The purpose of governance, but the American team is really out of the idea of "being a good person". As for Stark, his credo is probably "If you don't mess with me, that's nothing; If you mess with me. I'm going to break you down completely." Because he had taken in Ivan Vanko before, he also provided equipment for the latter to make steel soldiers. Hammer Industries now turned out to be a subordinate division of the Osborne Group - a ploy by Starkra to rally new allies. And Justin Hammer, the former CEO of Hammer Industries, is still in federal prison with a man who doesn't know which one of them.
A more recent example is Stark Industries' step-by-step push on AIM, which is a U.S. political force. The main contractor of the government had made a request for the War Machine suit, an improved version of the Mark II, for research. And a little farther away is not nothing, I heard that the great magician had a conflict with Iron Man back then?
In addition, Tony Stark is also a person of a lot of words (a character with a lot of dialogue. laughs), especially when you're not tinkering with those steel suits or anything. Now, it's been hours, and the other party hasn't spoken much, which really doesn't make sense.
Of course. It's also possible that Iron Man himself has something on his mind. But when I talked about the "young man" before, the other party was still very interested.
Considering the rumored "Anti-Magician Device", could it be that something like the "Anti-Magneto Suit" is about to come out?
Thinking of this, Eric laughed.
"Eric, what are you thinking?"
Looking at Magneto's smile, Professor X, who was sitting across from him, suddenly asked. In this regard, Magneto was stunned for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
"Why don't you see for yourself?"
"You know I don't usually do that."
"Yes, you're a good, principled person, I've always known that."
Magneto said this helplessly, and then laughed again: "I'm thinking that this so-called United Earth Army will be led by those 'superheroes'. ”
Seeing him ask about this, Professor X talked about the Round Table Council, and also mentioned the election of commanders that will take place tomorrow.
"So, in order to convince you to release me, the Shapeshifter has given up the opportunity to compete for the Roundtable seat and Commander on behalf of the Mutant Brotherhood? Stupidity! The good mood disappeared all at once, and Magneto scolded in a low voice. Then, he looked at Professor X with a serious face: "In my opinion, you are the most suitable commander to be. You have that strength in your own right, and at the same time represent all mutants, and you can also take care of the idea of humanity. And you actually became a representative of the round table, this is simply a cocoon. ”
"There are a lot of people in the others who are worthy of praise. Erik, don't be biased. ”
"It's not a bias, it's a fact. And I don't mean to look down on some people. I just wanted to say that most of the guys who are eligible to be Coalition Commanders right now, with the exception of my mutant brotherhood, belong to the forces of the Round Table Representatives. Of those who remain, there don't seem to be many who have enough courage and influence......"
Magneto's words were abruptly interrupted by Professor X.
"Speaking of which, Erik, Hank has found a guy you're definitely interested in in when you say 'the rest of the people.'" (To be continued......)
