168 Prototype

Picking up his own students, Eric has placed the children who have come to the academy these days, and the professors will nurture these traumatized newcomers in the same way that they tutor their predecessors.

Rogan stayed, and Auroro was determined to stay at the academy. In her mind, the professor was her father—like all fatherly fathers, his self-assertion would provoke the anger of his children, but that was no reason to abandon him at the Academy.

Although she really wants to be with the man she loves, Storm Girl thinks about maturity and stays at the academy and does her part as she always does.

"I'm not like Jean, Eric." Auroro said this as he left. "I'm used to a peaceful life, I can't leave the academy, and if I miss you, I'll go to Manhattan."

Looking at her smiling face, Eric was a little melancholy, and he held Auroro's face and kissed it for a long time, but finally respected her opinion.

Fortunately, he didn't need to worry about the safety of the academy, the professor's strength was still there, and in the confrontation between the two parties, Eric transmitted his miserable image in the real room and the powerful force together, forming a furious mental storm that forcibly broke the professor's strong defenses.

The first thing that shakes is the stubbornness of the professor, and then his strength, if one day he can really calm down completely and face the changes with an objective attitude and fairness, then a new Professor X will reappear.

But that would be a long time later, and from the moment he fell off the altar, he was already out.

After saying goodbye, the young men took the bus back south, and this time they were finally no longer in a hurry.

Back in Manhattan, the office building was filled with people again, and the old Parkers, who had been deserted lately, were very happy to see young people coming in and out.

This incident caused a lot of trouble under the water, and there were only slight ups and downs on the water, and ordinary people knew nothing. Still living according to their own inherent trajectory. As the saying goes, the world does not exist for one person alone. There may be a moment when people will temporarily lose their voices for a shocking event, and that will only be temporary.

People still have to survive. It doesn't matter if the state is good or bad.

Originally, he was a local figure with a head and a face. But times have changed, the new generation is blind to the old rules, the righteous and courageous Spider-Man broke the peaceful order, and he was held hostage by the silver ghost and made him lose face, and in connection with some bad changes in the city recently, he felt that he had to communicate with powerful people in advance.

This so-called powerful man is, of course, Eric.

Remember? Previously, the two sides had reached a verbal agreement that was not enforceable.

The validity of the agreement is not clear, but the person with the status should respect each other, so when he resubmits the request. Eric didn't shy away.

Sending off Mr. Director, he now has a bag of papers on his desk, which contains information about a small gang in the Manhattan area, the Harlem Boys.

This is the name given to them by outsiders, in fact, it is only a small organization, including the two mutant leaders, all members are local blacks, usually collect protection money for a living, occasionally defend against foreign forces, or do some shady transactions, in general, there is no justified background, no measurable crime. The neighborhood occupied is also only a corner of the slum, and generally speaking, such a small character only needs to show basic respect for the people in uniform. The police will leave them to fend for themselves, but now there is a small technical problem, which is that the group has recently had a small coup d'état, and an outside ruthless actor has overthrown the two original leaders and is about to recruit for a big fight.

"Two wretches were tamed by an ordinary person?" Corrie turned her head sideways to see something from Alicent, and couldn't help but be sarcastic.

Her character is strong and decisive, and she looks down on useless people the most - it is unimaginable that two powerful mutants should be defeated at the hands of ordinary people.

Her words inadvertently embarrassed her companions, when Eric took the young men of the academy to Stryker Base for a friendly match. almost encountered the end of the total annihilation, this kind of ugly thing really doesn't want to be talked about. So they looked at each other privately and immediately took the conversation away.

"Why haven't these two people been arrested before?" Alicent coughed and sat up straight, pretending to flip through the information in amazement. "Is there such a stark difference in the treatment we receive?"

"According to information learned by the police. They have always been well disguised and surrounded by their cronies, so it was only recently that they were exposed. Pete was embarrassed, but he read the message as it was.

This kind of guy is very controllable when he hears it- The corners of Eric's mouth were slightly raised, but he didn't speak, he asked the young man to communicate on his own first.

The brutal new boss is not a problem, the key issue now is what to do with these two so-called compatriots, after all, the young people here have never encountered such a precedent, in the past their predecessors faced a powerful brotherhood, a rival like Magneto, but now they have to face like a mouse in the gutter.

One view is to simply arrest all the old and new bosses and hand them over to the police, while the other is a little hesitant, realizing that the change in the situation will lead the mutants into a new period, and it is likely that in the future they will have to confront some of their compatriots.

This time it's two inverted friezes, and next time they may be murderers - mutants who have always been suppressed are suddenly freed, and they probably don't know how to exercise their rights, let alone take responsibility, and maybe if they don't go their way, they will make a mess, and if they simply put people in prison, then won't the new X-Men become accomplices of humanity?

The former opinion is mainly held by Babi and Corrie, who believe that helping the police arrest the prisoner will deter others, and the latter is Pete, and to the surprise that neither of the two girls, Mary and Katie, agree with Babie's opinion.

"John", Eric nodded to the burning man who had been silent. "Tell me what you think."

John stood up: "I think what Bobby and Pete said makes sense. ”

His words sounded like mud, and the girls booed.

John waved his hand again and again: "My idea is that since those two people have no big problems, and now they are being coerced not far from us, we should rescue them, but after accusing them, we can't simply hand them over to the police, but we should look at the specific situation and deal with it, we are not police, we have to recognize our position first." ”

His statement was a little vague, but both sides could be loved, and now the young man turned his attention to his mentor.

"John's opinion is very practical, and everyone thinks deeply." After complimenting the student, Eric continued. "The information of the police can be used as a reference, and if they are forced, we will rescue them; If it is a gangster who does not know the height of the sky, and ruins our reputation under our banner, but never takes responsibility, let him taste our strength. ”

Look at the young people, Eric explained to them further.

"There are all kinds of people in every ethnic group. When some of the unrestrained guys are out there, he doesn't care if his fellow citizens get in trouble for his actions. We are not moral models, it is our duty to protect our fellow citizens, but when it comes to simple-minded guys, fists earn respect more than persuasion. We can't make everyone like and we can't protect everyone, so we try to protect those who respect us. As for how to deal with the police, that's Hank's responsibility, and he'll supervise the work of the authorities, protecting the people who are locked up have the same rights as ordinary people, and we're only concerned with order and not being too disrupted. ”

As he spoke, he stood up, "Now is the time to correct their mistakes, and if they are forced, then—"

He paused deliberately.

"Free them!" The students shouted in unison.

"What if they were voluntary?" Eric asked again.

"It depends." The sound below is somewhat jumbled.

Eric smiled.

"If they don't have a big problem, then leave it to Pietro." Pointing to Mr. Pietro, who was sitting next to him, Eric said meaningfully: "Believe me, there is no useless person in the world, even if he is a rotten piece of wood, Mr. Pietro can come in handy for him." ”

The young man giggled, and Petro made a proud gesture with his chest and belly bulging.

But when the students went down to prepare, he was a little unconfident: "Can I really do it?" Mr. ”

Eric hurriedly reassured him: "Trust yourself. ”

He doesn't need to be an enemy of all of humanity, he just needs to build some less conspicuous forces around himself.

Pietro has enough ability to be of great help as long as he can overcome his inner weakness.

In this process, Eric will not ask him to do what he does not want to do, he just needs to find the right person to connect - it should not be difficult for the two Corrie to get rid of the nest in their mouth, they just need to continue the way of saving in the past, and it is enough to be obedient when there is a request from above, and even their lives may be better because of Eric's interference.

A mature organization should not only have a core of members, but also some peripheral attachment in addition to the most reliable young people, and it would be ridiculous if Eric himself or the students had to do everything.

"Officially, there is Hank's mutant affairs department, there is Raven's senator incarnation in politics, and there is Osborne in the business world, you can use some resources of the academy and the brotherhood, plus some forces in the secret, although all aspects are still very imperfect, but there is already a minimum prototype." Eric wondered what he could see in the future. (To be continued)
