Chapter 11 After the Fact

The Cuban Missile Crisis in this world involves mutants, the process is thrilling, and the ending is no different from other worlds.

The addition of Liang Zheng, an outsider, made the final island battle in "X-Men: First War" unrecognizable, Alex, Cassidy, and Hank ended without joining, and the Hellfire remnants followed Lanshel, Xavier was not hit by a bullet in the spine, and he was not paralyzed in the lower half of his body.

Some things have changed, some things haven't, Raven is gone, the letter she left to Xavier, briefly stating the reason why she is leaving, Xavier read it, was silent, and did not mention it to anyone.

The U.S.-Soviet fleet in the Caribbean, all the people who saw the mutants had erased this part of their memories in front of Xavier's telepathy, and Mora reported to the U.S. fleet that they appeared here because the German Nazis had appeared and wanted to provoke a war between the two countries.

The German Nazis were innocent of the black pot once, in fact, Mora was not wrong, Sebastian Shaw was indeed a Nazi during World War II.

Xavier and Mora strolled through the manor's lawn and enjoyed the peace. Mora seemed to sense something, didn't ask anything, and quietly enjoyed a little time with her lover.

Liang Zheng and Hank stay in the latter's lab, and Hank holds the helmet in his hand, studying the structure inside.

Liang Zheng asked, "Have you researched anything?" ”

Hank, who still maintained the appearance of a blue beast, took off his glasses and said, "Not yet, but its principle should be related to electrostatic shielding, and telepathy needs to be emitted with the help of brain waves." I don't know who made this helmet, only Xiao has it on the Hellfire side, and obviously the materials needed to make this helmet are very picky. ”

After saying goodbye to Mora, Xavier walked into the research room and asked Liang Zheng's question: "Did you come up with anything?" ”

"I need time to study the secrets of the helmet."

"McCoy, can you make high-speed friction-resistant clothing?"

With super speed, Liang Zheng has never dared to run too fast, he doesn't have the speed to protect his clothes, he has never dared to bring it up, for fear of other people's guesses, and now there is no need to hide.

Hank pondered for a moment and replied, "I need to give it a try." ”

Although no affirmation was given, there was hope.

Liang Zheng turned to Xavier: "You said goodbye to her?" ”

"For our sake and for her good." Xavier laughed at himself.

"Let's go, then."

Plan A, erase the memories of mutants from everyone in the know, including those on Langley's side.

――――――

A few hours later, the two appeared at the CIA headquarters building. They were here to erase the memories of insiders in the building, and to release Frost, who was imprisoned in a special cell.

Since it is necessary to erase the memory of the insider, Frost cannot continue to stay at the CIA headquarters, and it is not strange that a woman remains in a cell for no reason and without any documentation.

With the super speed mode turned on, Liang is suppressing the speed under high-speed friction, and even then, people don't notice that anyone is running around them.

There are several doors on the way to infiltrate the cell that require a keycard, and Liang Zheng doesn't want to break the door, so he needs a keycard, and there are security cameras in these places, Xavier's telepathy comes in handy, controlling the guardhouse personnel, turning off the security cameras there until they pass through and not reopening them again.

Frost, who had been in this special cell for a few months, did not expect that the people who came to save her would put her in this cell.

Liang Zheng went in and said "you are free" directly, and left without looking back, Frost in the cell was confused, she had been imprisoned for several months, lost all contact with the outside world, and did not know that the missile crisis had passed.

It wasn't until she went out to meet Ranschel, who had recruited her, that she learned that Sebastian Shaw was dead, and that the rest of his army was led by Ranshell to form a new organization, and she naturally joined.

――――――

On the way back, Xavier suddenly said, "Yes, how about opening a school?" ”

Did you finally mention it, Liang Zheng thought silently in his heart, but there was a look of surprise on his face: "Xavier, you want to open a school...... This school is not ordinary. ”

"As you can see, Alex didn't know how to use his talents properly before he met us, and he thought he was the only one, and this school not only teaches students how to use their talents correctly, but also shoulders the responsibility of communicating with humans." Xavier thought of this for the time being.

Xavier and Lanschel had different beliefs, and Lanschel believed that mutants were superior to humans, an idea that later became more and more extreme, and eventually evolved into the extermination of humans; Xavier believed that mutants and humans could get along amicably, and there were too many misunderstandings in this process, but he never gave up and firmly believed in it.

"You're going to start a mutant school, so have you decided on a name?"

"It's called Xavier School for Gifted Teens." Xavier began with his own surname, taking the famous mutant school from later generations.

Thinking of the situation of mutants in the future, Liang Zheng said silently: "This will be a long road. ”

"I know I'm going to go no matter how long it takes." Xavier's words are not so much an answer as a reminder of himself.

"There's also good news, I gave the squad a team name, X-Men."

History unconsciously continues on a normal trajectory.

Back at Xavier Manor, as soon as he entered the house, Hank hurriedly walked out, faced Liang Zheng and said, "Liang, the military recruitment office has sent you a notice. ”

"What!"

Liang Zheng had a hint of something wrong, Hank handed over the notice and took it over to take a closer look, and really wanted to say "I knew it earlier, and I would have kept it black."

The notice stated that Liang Zheng was going to report to the recruiting office in the next few days.

Because Liang Zheng joined the mutant squad, his black household problem was solved, and he is now a U.S. citizen, and as a citizen, he is obliged to serve in the military.

It was only then that Liang Zheng remembered that during the Vietnam War, the United States also implemented compulsory conscription, that is, the government forcibly conscripted citizens into military service. I didn't die and hit the muzzle, and I can only say bad luck.

He wanted to say no, but if he didn't go, he would be sentenced, and he didn't want to hide in the shadows all the time.

Xavier felt Liang Zheng's mood and explained: "This report is in a few days, and I will think of a way." ”

Since the United States has been mired in the quagmire of Vietnam, the anti-war voices at home have grown from nothing, and although the anti-war wave has not yet formed, it also shows that some people see that this war is not beneficial to the United States at all, but instead send groups of American soldiers to fight a senseless war, and the economic losses are huge.

But what's the use of this, the Vietnam War didn't officially end until 1975, and now it's only 62 years, and it's still a long time before it ends.

That being said, I've got Xavier on my side. Thinking of Xavier's telepathy, Liang Zheng's mood began to improve again.
