Chapter 106: I Can Keep Mutants Alive
"Pierce, what the hell did you do? Why did the "New Humanity Daily" continue to report instead of stopping? ”
Carter angrily slapped a copy of the New Humanity Daily on the table.
Pierce craned his neck and looked at Fury on the side.
Fury has no choice but to abandon his good friend, after all, everything is done by him and Pierce.
It is not the responsibility of Pierce alone that the desired results are not achieved now.
"Director, here's the thing~"
After Fury's explanation, Carter also lost his mind to curse, there was nothing wrong with their approach, but he didn't expect that "New Humanity Daily" would not buy their account, even if the threat did not work.
Twenty-four hours had passed, and instead of solving the problem, she had made it worse, and Carter could already imagine that the World Security Council would order her to pass.
Maybe this time it will be pushed out to carry the black pot.
In fact, Carter didn't care if she didn't take the blame, but her plan couldn't go on anymore, which made her very unwilling.
Peng~
The door to the director's office was pushed open vigorously.
"Director, it's not good."
Carter sighed: "I know, I'll go to the World Security Council to explain later." ”
The visitor was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and handed over a newspaper.
"Director, there is no order from the World Security Council, can you take a look at this first?"
Carter took the newspaper suspiciously, and glanced over it.
Global Daily
If the New Humanity Daily is firmly on the mutant camp, then the Global Daily is firmly on the anti-mutant camp.
It's not surprising that such a newspaper reported on some anti-mutant rhetoric.
It's just that the headlines on the front page this time made Carter's face change so much that he almost didn't stand firm.
Shocked! The president's family is mutants! 》
******
Because of Luhn, the president, who was supposed to be assassinated in one of the incidents, did not die, but was successfully re-elected for two terms.
After leaving office, he pushed his younger brother to the forefront, and after a period of momentum, the current president successfully took office, and was also successfully re-elected, and will leave office soon.
No anti-theft
But now it has been revealed that the president of a country is a mutant.
This event successfully caused an uproar in the world.
Although the official came forward to refute the rumors, it did not work at all, and everyone in the anti-mutant camp began to criticize infinitely, demanding that the incumbent president take a genetic test to prove his innocence.
If it's just a genetic test, it's easy to make a fake one according to the urine of those politicians.
But it's not that simple.
The president can't be faked at all, they are all human inside, anti-mutant voices have always existed, and even doves can't tolerate a mutant being the leader of this country.
do, will be exposed.
Don't do it, just cover your ears and steal the bell.
Only two days later, the official did not go out to refute the rumors, and seemed to be letting things develop.
For a moment, the world seemed to be in the same state as before the mutant wars, almost entirely anti-mutant rhetoric.
With this president taking the blame, Carter finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the World Security Council no longer pursued the leakage of the X Weapon Program and the Sentinel Program.
The World Security Council was also outraged this time, and there were mutants within them, which made them lose face in the world.
They unanimously decided that this time the mutant problem must be solved once and for all.
Carter even took advantage of this opportunity to get a large amount of money from the World Security Council to go all out to carry out the X-weapon program and the Sentinel program.
This time, she didn't hide it anymore, but generously announced it through a certain part.
With the exception of a small number of opposing remarks, it received almost overwhelming support.
With the support of a large amount of funding, the progress of the two projects has exceeded everyone's imagination.
And with that comes ~
Second Mutant War.
It's just that this war was initiated by human beings on their own initiative and has an absolute advantage.
In the first mutant war, due to the large number of mutants and their strange abilities, unprepared humans could only barely maintain the balance of power.
Right now~
Over the years, Rune's "Recovery Potion" has eliminated the vast majority of mutants.
Mutants still exist, but they are no longer numerically enough to threaten humans.
Even if the mutants are as capable as Charles, humans have figured out how to deal with it.
It can be said that from the very beginning of the second war, it was one-sided.
This time it was changed to a mutant without any preparation.
******
Xavier Manor.
Hank the Beast, Jean Phoenix, Scott the Cyclops, and Kurt the Nightkin gather in the Headmaster's office.
"Professor, what are we going to do?"
Everyone looked at Charles with hopeful eyes, hoping to get a solution from him.
It's been a month since the war began, and the newspapers are full of reports celebrating the success of the human race, and it seems only a matter of time before the sentry robots and X-weapons are in full swing, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before the mutant "cancer" is completely solved.
Charles was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head helplessly in the eyes of everyone.
Everyone looked at each other in despair.
Thanks to the reckless investment of the World Security Council, they have seen the horrors of Sentinel Robots.
Just like in Days of Future Reversal, the mutants are powerless against the sentinel robots, and they face only one-sided slaughter.
Fortunately, Weapon X also needs mutant test subjects, otherwise mutant casualties will be even greater.
But being transformed into an X weapon is no different from dying.
Weapon X now almost everyone has a helmet similar to the original Magneto, one of the two giants of mutants, Charles, the strongest psychic ability, has an empty ability but no use.
Just when everyone was in despair, dozens of military vehicles came from outside Xavier's Manor.
......
Carter strode into Xavier's estate with a group of helmet-wearing, heavily armed soldiers.
Since the beginning of the war, Charles has taken in many mutants who have nowhere to flee, and Xavier Manor has become a gathering place for mutants.
Seeing Carter swaggering in, the mutants stared at Carter with hatred, and even some mutants had a fierce look in their eyes, ready to move.
If it weren't for Charles and Hank and the others coming out to greet him, maybe the battle would have begun.
Walking up to Charles, Carter gave a terrifying smile.
"Charles, don't come unharmed."
Charles looked at Carter expressionlessly: "Director Carter, I don't know what to do when you come late at night." ”
Carter looked around: "This doesn't seem to be the place to talk. ”
Charles glanced at Carter and turned the wheelchair under him: "Come with me." ”
Principal's Office.
Charles asked in a cold voice, "Is it an ultimatum for us that Director Carter came in person?" ”
Carter smiled, not caring about Charles's attitude at all, and replied, "Charles, do you know why you can still sleep peacefully at night?" ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and tapped on a device on his ear.
"Don't bother, your mind-reading skills won't work for me at all, this thing can isolate your abilities."
Charles's face remained unchanged: "What is the purpose of your coming here?" ”
Carter looked confident and said, "I can keep mutants alive." ”
