After seeing that the people around him were standing motionless like wax figures, the little mischievous immediately said:

"Poppy, what did you do?"

While everyone in the school knows that Professor X is a powerful telepath, not many people have seen Professor X use his superpowers to immobilize others.

Because the Iceman had just exerted his superpowers, the little mischievous instinctively thought that this was what the Iceman did.

"I didn't do it."

The Iceman was equally puzzled.

It was the first time he had seen such a strange scene.

After the ordinary people in the venue were all frozen, the venue, which was still very lively just now, suddenly quieted down.

Except for the auto-playing sound of the broadcast and video, the entire venue was incredibly quiet.

It's quiet and eerie.

"Yes, he didn't do it, I did it."

Just as the mutant students were looking curiously at these ordinary people who were being frozen, Professor X's voice rang out.

Professor X, who didn't take the school bus to the venue with Roy and the others, doesn't know when he arrived at the venue.

At this time, he controlled the electric wheelchair and drove towards the three icemen.

As he passed by Roy, he deliberately turned his head to look at Roy, as if he was asking with his eyes why he didn't stop the Burning Man and the Iceman just now.

Although he understood Professor X's eyes, Roy certainly wouldn't tell his true thoughts, and pretended not to understand.

Seeing Roy's deliberately puzzled expression, Professor X shook his head helplessly.

"Don't show it off in the future."

After coming to the three Icemen, Professor X said to the Burning Man with a serious face.

Before the Burning Man could answer, an urgent news item was broadcast on the TV inside the venue.

"Urgent news! Washington reported on the scene that the Oval Office of the White House was attacked, and the president and vice president were unharmed. ”

"Sources indicate that this may be a terrorist attack orchestrated by one or more mutants."

The sudden interlude of urgent news immediately attracted the attention of Roy and others.

It really happened!

After seeing this urgent news, Roy knew that the next few days would not be too peaceful.

"Professor, I think we should go."

Cyclops said to Professor X.

"Yes."

Professor X replied quickly.

……

Two hours later.

Mutant School.

Principal's Office.

In addition to teachers such as Professor X and Cyclops, Roy is now in the office.

He didn't think he needed to participate in this internal discussion, but Professor X said that he was also a full member of the X-Men.

So, even though he's still a student, he needs to participate.

So, here he is.

"In my opinion, this is what Magneto planned."

Cyclops gave his opinion.

"I don't think so."

The Phoenix Girl said quickly.

Although Magneto is very suspicious, Phoenix Girl does not believe that this terrorist attack was planned by Magneto.

"Jean is right."

"While Eric can manipulate these things in prison, there's no point in doing so, and it will thwart his goal of making mutants thrive."

Professor X explained.

"Professor, you mean merit theory?"

Although his opinion was refuted by Phoenix Girl and Professor X, Cyclops didn't take it too seriously.

One is his girlfriend and the other is a teacher who personally teaches him how to become an X-Men.

Having been refuted by them, he would not have any opinion.

"Yes, if Eric continues to insist on his superiority theory."

Professor X said helplessly.

"The assassination of the president would lead to another mutant registration bill by the government."

Storm Girl said quickly.

Mutant Registration Act!

From a certain point of view, the occurrence of the Liberty Island incident was caused by the mutant registration bill.

If it weren't for this bill, Magneto wouldn't have had the crazy idea of turning all the leaders at the summit into mutants.

After the Liberty Island incident, the mutant registration bill was temporarily shelved due to Magneto's arrest.

But now, the attack on the president will make the government reconsider whether to enforce the mutant registration law.

This is undoubtedly bad news for mutants.

"Maybe worse!"

"The president can declare martial law on this and put all mutants in jail."

Professor X said with a serious expression.

After hearing Professor X's words, Cyclops and the others also realized that this attack would be more troublesome than they thought.

"That...... Can I make a comment? ”

Roy, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly spoke.

"What do you want to say?"

Laser-eyed looked at Roy and asked quickly.

"I agree with the professor."

"But I think the people behind the attack may not be targeting the president, but the school."

The target is the school?

Roy's words immediately attracted the attention of Cyclops and the others.

Even Professor X looked at him with a puzzled expression at this time.

"First of all, this is just my speculation, I don't have any evidence to prove it."

Roy said quickly.

"It's okay, you just told me what you guessed."

Professor X said in an encouraging tone.

"That's right, I'll have such speculations, mainly from the mastermind's point of view."

"As a simple example, if I were the one who planned the attack, I would definitely consider all the possibilities."

"For example, what security forces are around the president, and how to determine the success of an attack if it is stopped."

"It's not that I look down on the security forces around the president, I just think that if someone really secretly planned the attack, with the power of mutants, the security forces around the president won't play much of a role."

"Far from it, everyone here should be able to do it."

"If there is no absolute certainty of such a thing as assassinating the president, not many people will take the risk to do it."

"So, the fact that the president is safe and sound seems very suspicious."

Roy said unhurriedly.

Although he would have such a guess, it was inseparable from the fact that he was a traverser.

But even if he wasn't a traverser, he would have similar suspicions.

The reason why ordinary people are hostile to mutants is because mutants have a powerful power that ordinary people can never compete with.

Although not every mutant can have such great power, just one or two are enough to make ordinary people instinctively hostile to mutants.

The security forces of the White House may be able to deter attacks by conventional forces.

But for mutants with superpowers, the security of the White House is riddled with holes.

"You mean, someone deliberately planned this attack, and it wasn't intended for the president in the first place?"

Cyclops asked quickly.

"Yes."

"If my guess is correct, this attack should be a foreshadowing for the next operation."

"For example, to stir up the hatred of ordinary people against mutants, or to get the official to reintroduce the mutant registration bill."

"Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this attack was just to get the president to give certain orders."

"For example, martial law, or large-scale arrests of mutants, and so on."

Although Roy is well aware of the real purpose behind the attack, he can't swear by Professor X that the real purpose of the attack on the president is to attack the mutant school.

In the process, he needs to add some proper guidance.
