Chapter 605
Rocky? Azazler, who can be said to be a thunderous name among all the superpowers, once as the president of the United States, broke the conspiracy of the world's largest potential terrorist organization 'Hydra', and once saved the world in front of the world's live broadcast, this is a legendary superhero, and now he appears alive in front of him, and he is still an enemy.
Nathaniel knew what his current situation was even if he was stupid, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly on his face, "If I had known it was you, maybe I wouldn't have been so stubborn, I really didn't expect you to come out." Speaking of this, he paused, his face was a little strange, "Some time ago, it was rumored that you died with a terrorist named Manchu, but in my opinion, you are doing well now, is there something else hidden in this?" Or is it something else......"
Rocky didn't wait for Nathaniel to finish asking, raised his hand to signal the other party to shut up, and said with a faint look on his face: "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you, although that guy did cause me trouble, but it wasn't enough for me to have any damage, on the contrary, I have to thank him." If it weren't for him, how would I be more powerful than I used to be? Now, I'll ask you a word, are you willing to continue to cooperate with the Apocalypse or become my subordinate, you can choose these two paths yourself, and you can judge for yourself what the result is, all in all, I will never let my subordinates suffer, so you can do it! ”
In the face of Rocky's naked solicitation, Nathaniel smiled bitterly, did he still have a choice? From the fact that he was so held hostage by Rocky, his fate can be said to be self-evident, he has no second way to choose, "Do I still have a choice?" ”
Rocky had a smile on his face when he heard this, "You can choose according to your heart, and I will definitely not stop you." ”
Is Nathaniel willing to give it a go? Obviously, he didn't have the courage to do so, and his intuition told him that if he chose to turn around and leave, then the end would definitely be to end his nearly thousand-year-old life and turn into a piece of loess that he had once despised, which was not what he wanted.
So, in Rocky's ears, a sigh was heard from Nathaniel, followed by his respectful words, "Your Excellency, cooperating with you is undoubtedly my best choice, and from now on, my loyalty to Nathaniel will be dedicated to you......"
Rocky laughed when he heard his satisfactory answer, only to see him gently pat Nathaniel on the shoulder and say, "Nathaniel has undoubtedly made the right choice, and I will not let you regret this choice." ”
What else could Nathaniel say? Only accompanied Rocky with a dry smile, behind that dry smile was a deep helplessness.
Solving the trouble of the X-Men, Rocky naturally ran to Charles to ask for payment, facing Charles with a smile on his face, he was not half polite, "I said Charles, your smile is not enough to offset the reward you should pay." ”
Charles, who was originally going to thank Rocky, suddenly put away his smile and said with a wry smile: "I said Rocky, is it true that for you, only the exchange of interests is the most correct friendship?" It's really ...... you're doing that."
"Hey, Charles, don't complain about me, you know my character, we've known each other for more than a few years, if it weren't for a few twists and turns along the way, I'm afraid our status would not be so equal now, and the bills I once proposed, you will also fulfill them truthfully, and even you will be my citizens." Rocky sighed, recalling his ambitions as president, and now seems to have confirmed that it was just a dream, but could it really be a dream?
Just when Charles didn't know how to answer this sentence, the door opened, and Oloro's figure walked in from the outside, and heard her playful voice, with a little teasing: "Your Excellency the former president, if we say that we will become your citizens, it is also a matter of the past, and my current president undoubtedly does not recognize our citizenship, so strictly speaking, we are not citizens of the United States, but we enjoy the rights and obligations that must be fulfilled, do you understand?" ”
Rocky raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at the playful Oloro, of course he knew that the revocation of citizenship was initiated by him, and he once struggled with the question of whether mutants are considered American citizens, because their identity should belong to the world, and what they do is also inclined to the rights and interests of the world, rather than the rights and interests of the United States, so at that time he revoked the citizenship of mutants, but retained the rights and obligations of their identity citizens, which can be regarded as arranging a certain guarantee for themAfter all, there are not a few people who reject mutants in the world now, and the United States alone has formed the world's largest anti-mutant group, including people from all walks of life, and they form a force that Rocky cannot be underestimated, so he must take care of the feelings of these people when he is still president. And Oloro's ridicule was not for nothing, because this decision was the result of Rocky's consultation with them.
The purpose of bringing up this topic is not because of anything else, but the current president seems to be preparing to attack mutants, but he is not trying to help and integrate mutants like Rocky, but to eradicate the existence of mutants.
So why did the president, who is the current puppet of S.H.I.E.L.D., have so much courage to do so? Who gave him the confidence?
"Maybe we don't know that we are facing a lot of dangers and difficulties now, pressure from the Brotherhood, pressure from the apocalypse, and even pressure from our own country, the president of the United States, who kept saying that he would not abandon any citizen, now wants to attack his own citizens, and the reason is that we mutants are not recognized citizens, and the result of all this is because of the foreshadowing planted by your previous president......" Oloro did not blame Rocky for it, But this matter does have a reason that belongs to Rocky, so she still has some complaints in her heart.
Hearing this, Rocky's brow couldn't help but furrow, "You mean, the current president of the United States is going to deal with you mutants right now?" It's an incredible thing! What qualifications does he have, or what strength does he have to deal with you? This guy is just Nick to put it bluntly? Fury is just a puppet propped up, if Nick? If Fury wants to deal with you mutants, I'm afraid it has already appeared, so now that the question arises, is there another force? ”
Hearing Rocky's speculation, Charles and Oloro couldn't help but look at each other, they didn't think about this possibility, but the question is who would have the leisure to deal with them mutants? Speaking of the apocalypse, this person has been dealing with them for a long time now, and it can be said that controlling the president is a redundant move, and the smart man of the apocalypse will not do this, so who is it?
Just when Lodge was secretly speculating, Mr. John, who trusted the president of the United States, was slowly having some kind of conversation with a gentleman who was over seventy years old but did not seem to have a trace of old age, and it was strange that although this old man looked like a normal old gentleman, there was a deep evil in his eyes, which made people shudder.
"My dear Excellency the President, I like your bill, but I think it seems that it could be changed to find a place for these mutants to be imprisoned, what do you think of this proposal?" The old gentleman smiled slightly, and made an offer that all mutants would hate and gnash their teeth, he was not as kind as he appeared, and some were only outright evil, which undoubtedly reminded people of the evil demon king hidden in the deepest parts of hell, who came to the world to spread his fear.
Regarding the old gentleman's proposal, John, as the puppet president, had a solemn face, and there was deep helplessness in his eyes, it seemed that he couldn't help himself, or he had been controlled by the guy in front of him, otherwise he wouldn't have behaved like this, "I will obey your arrangement, but please also let my family go, as long as you are willing to let go of my guy, I am willing to do anything for you." ”
Hearing John say this, the old gentleman shook his finger and sighed, "Your Excellency, you are the president, how can you do things for others?" You have to do things for your citizens, you want to eliminate their threats, so now is undoubtedly the most correct choice. ”
Although these words did not contain any playful meaning, but the playful tone was not lacking, with a bit of ridicule that made John unable to resist, leaving him with the deepest fear of the old gentleman, which made his memory very fresh.
John remembered that he had come home from the work of a president as usual, but when he saw the old gentleman sitting in his drawing-room, his wife and son were like puppets, their bodies stiffened, as if they had been frozen by time, with a polite smile on their faces, but they had no breath, no sound, like a corpse. Years of reason forced him to calm down, and he endured the anxiety about his family's current situation and began to communicate with the old gentleman.
Then the old gentleman in front of him only said one sentence, "Your Excellency, I am here to help you benefit the citizens of the United States......"
Well, for the benefit of American citizens? None of the orders John heard from this guy's mouth were for benefit, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was persecution, look at the things he did, instigating the war between humans and mutants, making them kill each other, and abolishing the civil rights and obligations of mutants, this practice is nothing more than to provoke mutants to resist, will the United States still be the United States at that time? I'm afraid it has already become a hell on earth in the eyes of those who have a heart, right? The old gentleman in front of him is like a demon crawling out of hell, and he seems to want to see the scorched earth on earth and build his own paradise.
Every time he thinks that the United States is going to become history in his own hands, John can't help but feel very painful to breathe, but his family is in each other's hands, and he loves his family very much, so he can only choose this way.
Closing his eyes, John seemed to have made a very important decision, the cold sweat on his forehead and the unconsciously guilty look on his face made the old gentleman look at it with amusement, he liked to admire the inner struggle of human beings, and he found it amusing.
In the end, the old gentleman heard the answer that was more interesting and he needed, "I agreed to your conditions......"
"Your Excellency, you are a smart man, and I, Mephisto, like to work with smart people......"
Mephisto? This man seems to have been hit hard by Rocky at that time and returned to his scorched land prison, and now he seems to be returning to the world again and seems to be planning to set off a bloody storm? I don't know, Rocky doesn't know about this, doesn't know that the old rival has crawled out of hell again, ready to start a bigger conspiracy, or is the real purpose behind this conspiracy is to get revenge on him?
Unbeknownst to Rocky, after leaving X Academy, he had a hint of doubt, and he wanted to ask Nick? Fury, ask him, do you know that puppet president under your command is good at making advocacy decisions? Or is this guy out of your hands?
Nick? How can Fury have so much time now to deal with the problem of this puppet he has propped up? He is now suffering from a series of obstacles and sabotage caused by Hydra, several sub-bases in the United States have been attacked, casualties are secondary, important confidential information and documents have been stolen, so that they have directly lost no less than one-third of intelligence and technology, which can already be called a heavy price, he is anxious about this matter, and has no time to pay attention to other things.
"Sir, the secret base in Miami has been attacked, and all the scientists and guards are ...... All killed...... Hill seemed to be unable to talk about this matter, and it took a long time to finally spit out this terrible casualty figure, "a total of ...... 1982 ......"
Nick? Fury's face was almost gloomy and dripping, such heavy casualties, plus the previous S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who had been killed, this was a shocking number, and all of this was done by the 'Hydra' who he thought had no threatening ability, how did they know about S.H.I.E.L.D.? Could it be that there is already a spy on the other side in S.H.I.E.L.D.? And the identity of this spy must not be simple, otherwise how would he have access to such a highly confidential top-secret intelligence? It seems that it is time for S.H.I.E.L.D. to do an internal rectification. (To be continued.) )
