Chapter 376: First Meeting with the Bosses

Magneto, no, now his name is Eric, and he hasn't completely transformed into the role of Magneto, the villain boss of the late X-Men.
"Charles, Shaw" In a prison completely composed of various thick and high-strength plastics, wood, and bulletproof glass, Magneto Eric continued to lie under the light with his eyes closed as if he was sleeping, but his mind was still shining like a marquee about the scenes and details of the past.
Although Eric killed his enemy Shaw during the missile crisis, Eric blamed himself for accidentally injuring Charles's good friend, and even now he is in prison, he feels a little sorry for his friend.
As for Shaw, Eric has an unusually complicated feeling about this boss who is both an enemy and a mentor and guide to him. If it weren't for the fact that Shaw directly shot Eric's mother in the Nazi concentration camp, and at the same time experimented with Eric for more than ten years, maybe Eric would have joined the other party's Hellfire Club to work for Shaw.
After all, there is one thing to say, Shaw's influence on Eric is quite deep, and Shaw did not deliberately make things difficult or do other small means when teaching Erik, and even involuntarily affected Eric's outlook on life and the world's outlook - the core idea of Magneto's mutant brotherhood in the later period was put forward by Eric by accepting Shaw's thoughts!
Even though it has been a few years since the Cuban Missile Crisis killed each other, Eric still can't help but think of Shaw and Charles as soon as he closes his eyes. One is the guilt of his friend who was injured by himself, and the other is his enemy, but he is also his mentor
"Click-" Just as Eric was still in his memory, the sudden sound of the all-high-strength plastic sealed door opening made Eric quickly wake up from his memories, and then stared at the door with wary eyes.
Since the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis, Eric has been caught by the Mi Guoyan for an excuse, and then imprisoned with the White Queen and several other unlucky people one after another, for about half a year. Every few days in this prison, people come to record Eric's physical condition and changes, and even take blood or conduct some experiments from time to time, and now that the door is open, Eric thinks that those people have arrived again
"Eric?" However, to Eric's surprise, instead of a doctor and scientist in a white lab coat, he walked in, but an Asian man in a special military uniform, and the other party called out his name as soon as he entered.
"Didn't you already know the Dao?" Eric, who was studied as a guinea pig, reacted extremely badly to Liu Qi's questioning. Of course, if anyone is imprisoned as a guinea pig and draws blood for a few months, he will not have any good attitude towards the guy who imprisons him, and Eric's reaction is now considered normal, and he can't react normally.
"Of course, it's just to confirm" Looking at the angry young version of Magneto in front of him, Liu Qi, who had just harvested the blood of the White Queen and several others, said with a little disappointment.
To say that Liu Qi's most lamented role in the "X-Men" series is still the character of Magneto. Compared with Professor X, Charles, who was born in a family with a golden spoon and an earldom inheritance, Eric, who lived a difficult life since he was a child, was taken into a concentration camp by the Nazis together with his mother, who was dependent on him, because he inadvertently activated his special abilities, and was favored by mad scientists. When he was young, he just completed revenge but parted ways with his friends because of different ideas, according to the plot after "X-Men", after Magneto escaped, all kinds of plans were destroyed by his friends again and again, which can almost be called an ideal is plump, and the reality is a true description of the skinny.
Of course, this guy can also be called an immortal little strong, and it is his true portrayal that he has been defeated repeatedly and will never be discouraged! Liu Qi, who was watching the movie at the time, admired this guy's concept and will very much, at least this guy is not the kind of mouth cannon party but a doer
"Hey, buddy, I'm not your enemy" Liu Qi looked at the other party, and when he saw Magneto looking at him as if he was looking at an idiot, Liu Qi shook his head and directly used his mental power to lift the other party into the air a few centimeters before putting it down again.
"What do you want to say?" Magneto's eyes lit up, and then his tone became gentle. Obviously, Liu Qi's actions made Magneto think that Liu Qi was also a mutant (this conclusion roughly guessed the facts), and Liu Qi, who also belonged to the identity of a mutant, naturally made Magneto feel a little more close, and his tone was naturally much closer.
"Want to get out of this place?" Liu Qi looked at Magneto, the unlucky guy, raised his eyebrows and asked. Although according to the movie, Magneto left this prison at the end, but how many years it took to leave is not necessarily.
According to the information collected by Liu Qi, this unlucky guy has been in this secret prison for half a year, if it weren't for Charles interceding and Magneto's special ability, he would have been dissected and sliced a long time ago, even if he can survive now, but he will definitely not live much.
"What do I have to give?" Hearing Liu Qi's words, Magneto's breathing became obviously heavy, but this guy was not immediately happy, but asked Liu Qi with a cautious face.
Since Magneto was valued by Xiao in the concentration camp when he was a child and went through a Nazi education, Magneto himself did not believe that there would be that kind of free lunch in this world, Liu Qi, a mutant companion, would definitely have to pay some price in exchange for this, and as for what the price Magneto was muttering in his heart, calculating what the psychological bottom line was that he could accept.
"It seems that I can save my effort and let you out without a problem, but the government needs you and your companions to be supervised and tested for ability and body" Seeing Magneto know him like this, Liu Qi sighed and then made his own conditions.
Of course, the government's supervision and testing is nonsense, it's just that Liu Qi himself needs to get the blood samples of Magneto and his men who are still operating outside.
"That's it? Okay, I agree!" Magneto was stunned for a moment when he heard Liu Qi's conditions, and then immediately agreed.
He originally thought that the condition brought by Liu Qi was the kind of difficult requirement to join the government department by himself, or some other difficult requirement, and he planned to think about it in his heart, but now it seems that he doesn't need it. What else do you say about these two conditions? Just say yes, and I believe that even other people will not have other opinions
"OK, Mr. Eric, please come out" After negotiating with Magneto, Liu Qi began to release the Magneto from this special cage.
***************
Enter the twentieth day of Wolverine Prequel
"Hmm, there are a total of 2,372 blood gene samples and research reports of different mutants, it seems that Lao Mi is not eaten for nothing, there are still a lot of dry goods" Liu Qi looked at the blood gene samples obtained in several laboratories in the Xiao Shilu Realm, and was very emotional.
I have to say that in "X-Men", the attitude of countries such as the United States towards mutants is too indifferent, but that is the need of the plot rather than reality. After Liu Qi inquired for a period of time, he found that although the United States has not fully accepted mutants in "X-Men", there is a lot of research on mutants, especially after the appearance of Charles, Eric and others in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
For example, in addition to Liu Qi obtained more than 100 mutant blood genetic samples from the research institute established by Stryker, he also obtained a total of more than 2,000 mutant genetic samples from various other secret experimental institutions!
However, more than half of the genetic samples are the kind of abilities that have no special role or are simply chicken ribs, such as the ability to be invisible but not able to move, otherwise it will directly fail, or the ability to release a ball similar to a 20-watt light bulb outside the body, the ability to compress air in the lungs to keep yourself underwater for half an hour, this kind of mutant blood gene that is similar to chicken ribs but belongs to the ability makes Liu Qi cry and laugh. However, for the sake of research and comparison, Liu Qi still chose to put away these blood genes and reports that are more suitable for magic performances.
Of course, there are bad ones and strong ones, such as the White Queen's diamondization and mind control abilities, the Red Devil's teleportation ability, Sebastian Shaw's energy absorption and conversion ability, Magneto's metal control ability, Angel Wings and ultrasound ability
"It's very interesting, Charles, your blood gene sample didn't seem to be very careful!" After placing the blood and instructions of the demon girl he had just obtained from Magneto in the rows of genetic blood refrigerators, Liu Qi began to ponder.
In the "X-Men" movie, the blood of the mutant powerhouses on Stryker's side and Magneto's side and the blood genes of some mutants in the laboratory have been collected, leaving only Professor X, Charles, Beast and a few others who have too strong relations with the government to conduct research.
Of course, the mutant genes that were collected in "Wolverine Prequel" a few years later are not available now, such as the genes of Cyclops, Silver Fox, and Silver Fox's sister with similar abilities to the White Queen have not yet been found, and I can't collect them.
Liu Qi can also understand that, after all, according to the plot of "Wolverine Prequel", Stryker in this time period has not yet carried out the kind of crazy experiments and arresting actions in the later stage, so many mutants are still among the people and have not been collected by the United States government.
In fact, after temporarily obtaining the allegiance of Wolverine and others, Liu Qi was already worth the ticket price, and now the large number of mutant genes obtained is already earned. But if it was Liu Qi in the past, he would have accepted it if he saw it, but now Liu Qi is unwilling to go back directly.
"X-Men: Wolverine Prequel" is only a part of "X-Men", and there are many good things and characters in the follow-up "X-Men" main sequel, such as a little naughty who can temporarily eliminate mutants' abilities, or Jimmy, the antidote raw material that can simply eliminate mutants' abilities and turn them into ordinary people.
The most important thing is that Liu Qi feels that since he has entered the world of "X-Men", how can he be willing to dig a spoonful directly and easily let go of this world world with great potential to be explored? It's impossible!
"Charles, maybe it's time to have a good conversation with this Professor X" After thinking about it, Liu Qi made up his mind in his heart, maybe he should have a good conversation with Charles according to his own ideas.
Xavier School for Gifted Children, well, there is no such school in X-Men right now, because at least for the time being, Professor Charles is not in the mood to run a school, and now he is semi-paralyzed and busy with things in his own home.
"Charles, someone is looking for you" Mora, a former CIA female agent and now Charles's caregiver, looked at Charles, who was busy in the room, knocked on the door very carefully, and found that the other party raised his head, and then whispered to Charles that someone was looking for him.
"WHY? Charles, who was busy with a headache how to legally get his friend out of the special prison, suddenly raised his head and asked with some questions.
"Eric and a colonel in special attire," Mora said, with an equally strange expression.
******************
When a few minutes later, Liu Qi and the just-released Magneto saw Charles, the boss of the righteous side in "X-Men", in the living room. Liu Qi looked at Professor X, who was already bald and in a wheelchair opposite, and suddenly remembered a sentence in his mind - aging before aging!
Well, no way, Professor X's actual age is about twenty years old, but you fandom will tell him that this guy in a wheelchair is forty years old and not many people suspect it!
When Liu Qi was looking at Charles and Mora, Charles and Mora on the other side were also looking at Liu Qi - when was there an extra Asian next to Eric/Magneto? And still a colonel? However, Charles is the kind of person who is more well-informed after all, and when he looked at Liu Qi's military rank and special military uniform, he suddenly remembered the news that the new president had officially established a superpower special forces a while ago, as if it was an Asian who was appointed as the chief of the special forces
"Eric, you've actually come out of there" Without using his mental power to control the wheelchair to move freely, Professor X Charles slowly came to the living room under the impetus of Mora, and after watching his friend actually come out of that special prison, Charles looked at Magneto with some sadness and joy and said.
The relationship between him and Eric can only be described as a good friend, although they parted ways because of the disagreement, but the two did not kill each other in the follow-up plot of "X-Men" no matter what.
"What's wrong? Charles, are you surprised I was able to come out?" Magneto looked at Charles, and at first there was a hint of guilt in his eyes, but he immediately reined in and said with a slight sarcasm.
"Eric, you know I didn't mean that," Charles explained to Magneto Eric with some impatience. He is not the same Professor X in the future generations, at most he is in his twenties, he does not have that kind of calm, hearing the trace of resentment in his friend's tone, he hurriedly explained, for fear that his friend will make trouble again with a grudge.
"I know it's okay, I'm here to introduce a companion to you this time" Magneto also eased his tone after seeing Charles so nervous, and then opened his mouth to introduce Liu Qi, who was pointing to the side watching the play.
"Hello, Mr. Charles, my name is Yuri! It's a pleasure to meet you, a new human powerhouse in terms of spiritual power," Liu Qi smiled and stretched out his hand, while saying words that surprised Charles.
"Hello, Mr. Yuri! What are you talking about, the new human being" Charles stretched out his hand and shook Liu Qi's hand and then let go, and then Charles asked Liu Qi with some surprise and excitement.
"Mr. Charles, it seems that you and Mr. Magneto have a concept, and subconsciously substitute yourself into a misunderstanding. Mutants?? That's a demeaning term for ordinary humans! Whether it's you or someone else, you subconsciously use it on yourself, this concept is not good! Truly, we deserve to be called the New Humans!!" Liu Qi felt the three gazes that noticed him, and said slowly in a very firm tone.
At the same time, when he was speaking, Liu Qi also used his mental power to lift up the things on the table to show that he was also a superpower.
"New Human??" *2
Mora was just a little strange, but Charles looked at Magneto, whose eyes were fiery, as if sensing something as he pondered the term.
No one knows who the mutant name came out in the first place, but both humans and X-gene mutants habitually call themselves like this, even in the sequel to "X-Men", which invisibly lists themselves as non-humans. Professor X and Magneto are in the bureau or are used to it, but Liu Qi is not used to it as an outsider, so he directly changed to the title of a new human.
New Humans! It represents a new evolutionary direction for humanity, not an alien like mutants! This is Liu Qi's original words, and it is also one of the reasons why Magneto agrees with Liu Qi.
After all, Professor X Charles is also a smart person in "X-Men", and he figured it out after being broken by Liu Qi, but he didn't know what Liu Qi had in mind, and he just planned to rely on a title to reverse people's impressions
Charles shook his head and looked at Liu Qi, this guy with a voyeuristic habit began to use his abilities in secret, intending to see what Liu Qi was famous for. However, Charles was soon shocked to find that Liu Qi directly resisted the peeping of his spiritual power.
"Mr. Charles, you don't need to use your own ability, it's useless" Liu Qi looked at Charles's frightened eyes and said with a smile.
"Well, what exactly are you going to do? Come with Eric," Charles asked dryly, after his defeat. Anyway, with Magneto's relationship with Liu Qi's ability to show and perform, he is not worried that Liu Qi is an enemy.
"Of course, I have something to talk to you about," Liu Qi looked at Charles and said with a smile. (To be continued......)
