It was a sunny day, and with the warmth outside the door, a stylish and beautiful woman walked into the office building.

"What are you doing?" Walking into the lobby on the top floor to say hello to Eric, Raven looked curiously at the man who was trying on clothes with the help of the secretary.

"The City Council intends to present me with a Certificate of Honorary Citizenship and be invited to attend a cocktail party." Eric replied. Regarding the change of clothes, the secretary Mary Jane is more enthusiastic than the invitee herself, since this young lady was rescued by him from Dr. Octopus's lair, her eyes often flickered with strange water waves, even Pete showed this, and Spider-Man, whose identity was concealed, looked at with resentment all day long, and even Neo-Magneto felt uncomfortable. In order to avoid trouble, Eric tried his best to cooperate with her in small matters, and did his best to send her back to his post.

Raven saw his thoughts, but she didn't pierce them, she just had a playful smile on the corner of her mouth.

"For you to rescue innocent New Yorkers? It does deserve the title of honor~no~wrong~citizen. She casually commented that the recent news of mutants continuously saving people under the clutches of Doctor Octopus has not only caused a stir locally, but also quite noticeable even from far away in Washington.

"Maybe it's for me to promote local employment." Eric shrugged, he saw it openly, there was nothing to be excited about, if he wanted to give an honor, he had the opportunity a few months ago, and it was only the result of repeated urging by public opinion to drag it out until now.

He sees the speculative psychology of politicians very clearly, and it is not necessarily popular among the general public that it will be accepted by the upper class, and Spider-Man has done more for ordinary people, but now the newspapers still have mixed reviews.

As soon as it was done, Mary Jane left the hall with her clothes in her arms, and now they could speak in peace, and Raven had some news to tell him.

According to Eric, Senator Kelly, played by Raven, has managed to take control of the covert sector with his usual staunch anti-mutant fighter image, though he doesn't have the unreserved support that the former president did for Constantine. But there are also many people who are wary of mutants, including big business owners, celebrities, or people with special abilities. After the last bitter battle on the edge of the town by Eric, some quietly retreated, and some stayed behind to continue their idea of excluding mutants, such as the misguided Watsonton Pharmaceuticals, which was readmitted at their urgical request, and they would wash away the shame of defeat with their own potion.

These people were scattered all over the United States, and few of them openly took a stand, and now they never dreamed that their names would be on a list and appear in front of Eric clearly.

At the beginning of the year. The government's attempt to implement the mutant registration bill was hit by Magneto and forced to suspend it, and now a list of anti-mutant forces is in the hands of mutant leaders.

Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar names, Eric smiled and nodded, he already had some plans, and someone would come to visit these people who were enthusiastic about public welfare in the future.

"They've secretly touched Jimmy's body, gotten some stem cells to culture hematopoietic organs, and now they've extracted some potions, anyway. Watsendon is really desperate to eliminate us, do you think you can let them continue? ”。 Now away from Washington, Raven no longer hides her hatred for the megapharmaceutical conglomerate, which she considers to be the most dangerous force in the family.

A company typically costs half a billion dollars. It takes 12 to 15 years to get a new drug from the lab to the market, and only about five of the 5,000 preclinical compounds can enter clinical trials, and only one of these five compounds can be approved for clinical treatment of patients and become a real drug. And Watsonton's attempt skips the process altogether. With the connivance of some people, they are rapidly advancing the research process, trying to avoid legal restrictions and shorten the time to market.

Eric roughly knew why. However, he doesn't care, all the individuals and businesses that appear on the list will be hit sooner or later, and Watsendon is no exception.

"Don't care." Eric comforts Raven. "I have personally experienced that potion and it is not as good as they claim, it is just a powerful inhibitor, not an eliminating potion of their ability, and we can overcome it by our own volition, even if it is not digested over time. On the whole, it will bring some local risks, but it will not cause us great problems, on the contrary, after this farce, it will only remind our fellow human beings once again that they are not reliable, and they must rely on us more closely. ”

After receiving his explanation, Raven put down the pharmaceutical giant for the time being, and chatted about the academy casually, with the help of several mentors, the freshman quickly adapted to it, and the professor fulfilled his responsibilities well, but he was still a little worried that the president's death would pitpoint the high-level and mutants against each other, destroying the original form.

Eric shook his head, he always felt that professors who came from rich families and had been isolated from mainstream society for a long time didn't understand Americans at all.

Someone once commented that Americans can quickly win the favor of the other person at first sight. But after a week, they'll forget about you. The descendants of the New Big 6 Trailblazers continue the character of their ancestors, who both love new things and are used to discarding them as if they were their own old cars.

On the one hand, they are practical, aggressive, optimistic, and adventurous, and on the other hand, they are aggressive and advocate strength.

It's a complex and simple character, where people who have no strength and no ambition don't necessarily get enough respect.

The professors themselves are the best proof of this.

Isn't his power strong? With the help of the instrument, he can connect to the brains of all humans and forcibly wipe out billions of living beings, but such a great man as a god has locked himself alone in a corner of the town, and even mortals like Stryker dare to come to the door.

It's not that humans are irresistible, it's that he limits himself, and after being freed from his shackles, Eric has no worries.

"I killed the president, did anyone come looking for me? They don't necessarily have no choice, they just don't want to suffer the consequences of failure. Today I am a city hero, a villain in the president's mind, but soon I will be a guest at the White House, the patron saint of the United States, and then it will be a new world. He thought I had offended everyone, but how did he know that I didn't win my life by my own strength and determination. Eric said this, handing Raven a copy of the article with the news of his recent life.

Former presidents have gone to war, large sums of money have flowed into the pockets of arms dealers, finances have gone from surpluses to deficits, spending in other directions has been reduced, and the government has contemplated a stimulus package to ease the pressure – the comments from the financial community are that an economic crisis is imminent.

Soon the bureaucrats will see that they have to save money, and that will be when they will have to tighten their belts, and the problem of dealing with mutants will not be urgent.

"Maintaining the strength of the 6 Navy and Air Force, which can win two wars at the same time, and now they want to deal with us, how can it be so easy in the world? The government is not as strong as people think, they hate me, but now they don't get more out of me, and that hatred will fade over time. There is no such thing as absolute security, and if people know that you are difficult to deal with, that you are unlikely to get much in return, and that the cost is inversely proportional to the gain, then you don't have to worry too much about getting hit. ”

In the last secret war, the oil industry, which was close to the former president, was reluctant to intervene, and the financial tycoons chose to stand on the sidelines, because they knew very well that their interests were not in the mutants, and it was difficult to get anything from the mutants, and the ensuing counterattack in the event of defeat would make them lose a lot. Oil and finance are one of the most important pillars of contemporary America, and their attitude is telling.

The White House has the idea of the White House, not necessarily everyone has to follow it, only the medical profession and arms dealers are the great enemies of mutants, or more accurately, only scientists who break the ethical boundaries are the real enemies. If you don't have a firm attitude, they will come up one after another regardless of the disparity in power, and even if you see them and stay away, they will be like hyenas that only smell fishy, and they will automatically lurk at your door. If they were to be cloaked in racism, they would have nothing to fear.

So to crack down on these guys, you can't just protest verbally, and don't simply use violence. Let their conspiracy gradually be exposed, and continue to cause trouble, and when they get into trouble, ordinary citizens are innocently involved, and mutants come to their aid, so that after many tug-of-wars, the people will understand who is truly trustworthy.

"It's insidious." Raven slapped him a few times in disgust.

She's been traveling between Washington and New York lately, and the Brotherhood's secret base rarely returns, and Eric feels like a new home, and Raven comes back every once in a while. Although he is a little busy, fortunately, the disguised identity will not last long, and when the time is right, Senator Kelly will have a grand curtain call.

"But now it's getting in and out of your place more and more inconvenient, there are a lot of agents watching nearby, is there anything you can do?" In the intimacy, Raven suddenly remembered the recent troubles, and she asked casually, she didn't plan to get a solution, but Eric had his idea.

He remembered that in another world, there was some kind of creature equipped with something like an invisibility cloak that could be put to good use.

Soon, new guests will be welcomed to the pyramids beneath Bouvet Island in Antarctica. (To be continued......)
