Superman

A bridge?

Communicate for humans and mutants?

If he heard these words from other people's mouths, Stryker would only sneer and find it ridiculous.

But he is facing Luke, a war hero who has always liked to create miracles, and a great superman who has done many incredible things.

The same words spoken from different people have different weights.

War hero, superman, savior of the Allied nations, terminator of World War II, piling machine of the Sorceress... each title represents unparalleled prestige and status.

Many people say that if Luke announces his participation in the next presidential election, he will definitely enter the White House with a huge advantage without any suspense.

It is a pity that this major general can stand his temper and has no interest in becoming the youngest president in the history of the United States.

"General, please forgive me for my shortsightedness, not being able to see the future you foresee."

Stryker said after thinking for a long time.

He doesn't think it is necessary for humans to get along with mutants.

According to the original law of the jungle, isn't it the easiest and most direct way to eliminate it?

"Do you think it's easy to defeat mutants?"

Luke toured this huge and solid military base and whispered: "As long as Congress allows you to mobilize the armed forces, you can rush into their homes and arrest all these time bombs."

"They put electric shock collars on their necks, throw them into metal cages, and regularly inject leech serum. They are dissected, tortured, and subjected to inhumane cruel experiments like livestock."

Stryker was silent, he did think so.

"The ideas that Dr. Teslak instilled in you are not necessarily correct."

Luke curled his lips. Of course he knew that dwarf scientist, and wanted to use mutants as tools to make sophisticated weapons.

But what good can it do for me?

Let the bald eagle rule the world?

It is not as interesting as establishing a superman regime similar to the Third Reich.

"Fixed thinking limits your cognition. Stryker, you have been following Dr. Teslak for so long, have you ever thought about a problem?"

Luke was thinking about how to use this military base; he was talking to Stryker.

"Where do mutants come from? Are their appearance regular? The children born between mutant couples must be mutants?"

"In other words, under what circumstances is the probability of a mutant being born?"

Stryker frowned and said solemnly, "Sorry, General, I don't know."

"Dr. Teslak's current research is temporarily limited to the drawing of genetic maps, and has not been carried out to this point."

"Let me tell you, Stryker."

Luke stopped and opened the door to the control room, damp and moldy air blowing in his face.

"The birth of mutants is irregular, they are split from the human group. Even bolder hypothesis, everyone in the world may have X gene in their bodies, once it is activated, then-it will be Mutants!"

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

Stryker was listening intently, but was caught off guard to face the most troublesome problem of a single dog.

He shook his head quickly and explained: "Ahem, I'm from Arizona, where the atmosphere is more conservative."

Stryker tried to save the last dignity of the single dog.

"Then you might as well imagine, if you get married in the future and give birth to lovely children. But he or she is a mutant, what would you do?"

Luke curled up his mouth and smiled: "Are you going to put that cutie in a cage too?"

Stryker had nothing to say, and after a while, he said, "I was wrong, General. You are the one who has seen the farthest. You are the first to realize the contradiction between the two races and the nature of interdependence."

At this moment, he can be said to be convinced by the young major general in front of him.

Originally out of idol worship, it rose directly to a firm following.

"Well, the tour is over. Tell Dr. Teslak, I will find him a better new home."

Luke gently stroked the complicated buttons on the console, and an idea came up in his head.

If Sebastian Shaw came to the door and raided the dam base on Lake Akaria, then he would open the floodgate's gate directly, would he be able to wipe out this guy with no effort?

The talent of absorbing energy and transforming energy, facing the terrible torrent of mountains and tsunamis, probably has no effect.

"I hope Sebastian Shaw can take the initiative and send it to the door."

Luke thought with a chuckle.

...

...

Anna Maria Island, seaside hotel.

Namor, who had just joined the Hellfire Club, met his countrymen for the first time.

It's not just Sebastian Shaw, Emma Frost, the White Queen, and other mutants of all stripes.

"This is Namor McKenzie that I often mention. He is the king of Atlantis and a leader worthy of everyone's follow."

Sebastian is like a White House spokesperson, introducing himself instead of Namor.

In his opinion, Namor, who had recently taken the throne, was immature and young.

There is no charisma at all, leadership halo at all, and at best can only be regarded as a tool man.

"But... this is just what I want, an easy-to-control puppet."

Sebastian smiled, and triumphant emotion flashed in his eyes.

Relying on Namor's identity as a mutant, he gradually approached each other.

After gaining trust, he set out to create a violent conflict between mutants and humans that could not be reconciled.

Let Namor hold an attitude of hatred and hostility towards humans, and then strive to open the war between the underwater world and land civilization!

This is his plan!

As for the hero who rescued the compatriots, the leader who led the mutants to create the future... they were all false lies like a kid.

It's like during the New Year's Day, when your parents help you put away the red envelopes and say to return it to you later.

If we say that mutants must have a leader.

It will only be me!

Sebastian Shaw thought so.

"The situation of mutants has always been terrible. Humans treat us as freaks and aliens! They reject and persecute us! They don't want to admit that it's their own ignorance, and ignorance made it all. It's like they burned Bruno to death and witches. It's like putting it on the torture frame!"

Sebastian's voice was agitated, and he started to speak in endless mode.

"Because they are just a group of short-sighted low-level creatures. Once they find something incomprehensible or unacceptable, they feel scared, panicked, and even sleepless at night. They must be completely strangled before they will give up."

"My fellow citizens, we are obviously the forerunners on the path of evolution, but now we are forced to hide in Tibet, like a mouse in the sewer. Is this fair?"

There was silence in the hotel suite, but everyone's face was full of hatred and anger burst into their eyes.

I have to say that Sebastian Shaw's remarks are very provocative for mutants who have been treated unequal all year round.

Even Namor on the side was evoked from the painful childhood experience, and his chest was full of anger.

Click!

A silver lightning fell, tearing apart the thick dark clouds.

I don't know when, the sea is raging, as if responding to everyone's mood.

"Now, it's time to stand up and resist!"

Sebastian looked at Namor who stood upright, and said in a deep voice, "We have a new leader, and it's no longer a mess."

"If you want to be the leader of mutants, you have to prove yourself!"

A young man in a suit and leather shoes stood up. He was a "torrent" with the natural ability to spin at high speeds and create tornadoes.

Belongs to the hardcore members of the Hellfire Club.

"I am not questioning you, Mr. Xiao, nor against... Namor, our new compatriot."

Torrent is like an invited extra, loudly saying: "It's just that the leader's seat is not to choose someone randomly, at least we have to trust him enough, and he must show the strength to convince everyone!"
