Yes, the beginning of all of this was a trap set up by Magneto Erik. Since the Mutants lost control incident. After Li Jie began to persuade Professor X to restart the X-Men, Magneto seized the opportunity.
From the moment Paul was found, it was something that Erik had planned. He knew where the Professor's weakness was, and he also knew what Stryker's plan was. Just like Magneto himself said.
Great causes require sacrifices, and boiling a frog in warm water is just a slow way for Mutants to wait for death. He needs to unify the power of all Mutants. He needs to force all Mutants to choose a side at this moment. Either kneel and wait for death, or take up arms and resist, life and death are up to God!
So he designed such a trap, a complex and sophisticated calculation. He knows the Professor's character, he knows Stryker's character, and he knows the morality of the Congressmen in Congress.
He needs to force these people to make a choice quickly. He used Paul to lure Deacon to kill Senator McCauley, a spy he had set up many years ago. He was clearly a Mutant, but he pretended to be an anti-mutant radical.
His death is bound to cause the senior officials in the government to feel the same. And Paul and Deacon's killing will certainly not be hidden from the Mutant teachers in the academy. After all, they are still too young, and there are too many teachers in the academy who can see that they have killed people.
And Professor X will definitely investigate why these two children killed people, and at this time Paul is the biggest suspect. According to Professor X's usual practice, he will definitely investigate Paul. And the illusion seed planted in Paul's heart by the Phantom Master will inevitably be discovered by the Professor.
And what the Professor doesn't know here is that the Phantom Master Jason has actually been rescued by Magneto. And in order to implement his plan, the Enchantress has been disguised as Jason and was imprisoned in the original prison. So Stryker didn't find out that his son had actually been replaced.
And the Phantom Master is Professor X's original student, and the Professor knows very well that the Phantom Master's final whereabouts were taken away by Stryker. And the professor will definitely put the object of suspicion on Stryker.
Because according to normal inference, General Stryker, who was also a radical mutated human, was likely to use the ability of Transformation Master to control Paul and make him kill people. Then it was exposed that the incident was done by the Mutants. Finally, it caused an uproar in the Congress and introduced a new Mutants Management Act.
It can be said that the Professor's entire analysis is not wrong, and he sent the X-Men to attack Stryker's nest as soon as he learned the news, which was done to avoid Stryker's next plan.
But this time, everyone was fooled. Whether it was the X-Men, Stryker, or the US military and Congress. At this moment, they all became Eric's pawns. He used a brilliant method to sow discord without batting an eyelid.
Macaulay, a member of the Mutants Brotherhood, was sacrificed, but Stryker's base was successfully destroyed, and Magneto himself did not waste a single shot. At the same time, Stryker, who originally wanted to use this incident to properly test pressure on Congress and moderately strengthen the control of Mutants, finally learned that his base was destroyed. What would he do?
Magneto's brilliant strategy this time killed many birds with one stone. It is very likely that Stryker will be furious and do everything he can to push for the passage of the Mutants Management Act.
And the most important point is that the Professor, who originally represented the moderate faction of Mutants, played the role of an executioner in this incident.
The Senator was killed by his students, and the base was destroyed by his teacher. If at this time, the officials in the government still believe that he is a moderate and a Mutant leader that can be talked to, then they would have seen a ghost.
I'm afraid that after knowing all this, all government officials will label Charles as a terrorist. They think that he is a Mutant radical more terrible than Magneto. Because Magneto's radicalism is open, and Charles' radicalism is more hidden. This is even more frightening!
"Why did you do this!" Charles looked at Magneto with uncontrollable sadness in his eyes.
"Because of you, Charles." Eric stood and he looked down at Professor X in the wheelchair. "I said I need to unify all Mutants. Only at the moment of life and death can our race unite and figure out what's good for them and what's bad for them! "
"But because of your existence, the existence of your school. It's too much of a hindrance. Because you will always instill those poisonous ideas in those Mutant children, just like my mother. "Eric criticized Charles mercilessly.
"You always make them feel that as long as they are patient and friendly, they can carry everything through. You will disintegrate the fighting power of Mutants. Your thoughts, your school. So you have to choose a suitable side. But you have always stood in the wrong direction, and this time I helped you choose. Charles, do you know what you are going to face from now on? "
Magneto Erik turned in a 360-degree circle and looked around the academy. "From now on, the existence of your school will begin the countdown. This should not be a shelter, at least not now, not at this time. Now you have only two choices, either do it with me or stay here. Watch your school and the children you value, all arrested and slaughtered by the human government! "
Magneto's tone was unusually calm. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with using the lives of hundreds of Mutant children as a bargaining chip. Great causes require sacrifice, perhaps this sentence has been deeply ingrained in his bones.
"You can't do this, you shouldn't do this, Eric." Eric, "Professor Charles's lips trembled slightly as he murmured. At this moment, he looked so desperate. It was as if he had aged twenty years in an instant.
His soul, his strength, all his pillars. It was drained by Magneto in an instant just now. There was no warmth at all. It was a cruel and bloody scene. Charles could even smell the thick smell of blood that could not be dispersed.
Magneto looked at him quietly. Magneto was not in a hurry to answer the professor. At this moment, a soft bang was heard, accompanied by a thin layer of blue smoke. The mutant named Blue Devil had already brought Paul out.
Paul looked so excited when he saw Magneto that he didn't even notice the professor beside him. And the professor who saw this scene felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He asked himself, is everything he did wrong?
Magneto looked at the Professor's dazed look and inadvertently showed a smile. He knew his old friend too well, and his evaluation of the professor may be partly right. Indecisiveness.
"Charles, make a decision quickly. You don't have much time. And I am leaving now. If you are ready to join us, come to me. You know how to find me. "Charles looked at Magneto wanting to do something immediately and subconsciously wanted to do something.
But Eric obviously knew what his friend was up to. So he spoke directly. "Don't try to do anything, Charles. You know you can't control me. "Eric patted his helmet.
"You have sent all the high-end combat power in your hands to attack Stryker's base. Do you expect those young Mutants to fight with me? " I don't care about blood, but I don't want to slaughter Mutant children. "
When Charles heard this, he finally couldn't help but roar, "What you are doing now is no different from slaughtering them!"
Eric looked at Charles with a pitiful look. "At least they have a choice now!"
Bang ~! There was a soft sound and a burst of blue smoke. Only Charles was left alone in a daze. He had lost. This time, he had suffered a crushing defeat!

New York Metropolitan Hospital. When Li Jie arrived here on the glider. There was a fire in the hospital's morgue.
It was hard to say whether it was an accident or man-made. Was there really someone who wanted to cover something up or destroy something?
"Where is Senator McCauley's body!" Li Jie grabbed a police officer who was holding a fire extinguisher and trying to control the fire and asked.
"Nightcrawler? Oh! The senator's body is in Cabinet B. Number 51! "The officer seemed to have received George's report. The police officer seemed to have received George Stancy's notice. He knew that Nightcrawler would come here. So he told Li Jie what he knew without any hesitation.
The fire in the morgue was so big that ordinary police officers couldn't rush into the fire. The fire extinguisher could only control the fire and prevent it from spreading. The fire engine would arrive in a minute and a half.
Even if the fire brigade arrived at the scene and could quickly control the fire, McCauley's body would probably be completely destroyed! Li Jie didn't hesitate at all. He took a deep breath. He installed a mechanical arm on himself and then resolutely rushed into the fire.
No matter who was behind this and what they wanted to do. Li Jie didn't expect the other party to succeed. It wasn't easy for him to gain a little advantage, but all kinds of twists and turns happened one after another.
It wasn't easy for him to suppress the matter about the mutants, but now someone was courting death again. The world hadn't calmed down for a few days. The smell of sulfur could still be smelled in the air in Eastern Europe. Now someone wanted to stir up a bigger conflict in his place. Li Jie couldn't tolerate this!
It didn't matter if it was Thor who became fat and affected the plan. It was also the mastermind behind this incident. Li Jie wanted nothing more than to dig them out and teach them a lesson. I've already tried so hard to do so many things. Can you guys stop for a while!
The Spider-man arrived with George a minute later. They had already learned from the police officers that Nightcrawler had rushed into the fire. Peter was very worried. He also wanted to rush into the fire. Li Jie broke out of the fire. He was still holding a corpse that hadn't been completely destroyed in his steel arm.
At least half of Senator McCauley's body was left!

When the Blackbird slowly landed in the Mutant Academy. When the door of the plane opened, Scott and the others saw a very tired professor.
"Professor, we just met Enchantress at Stryker's base. I think we may have fallen into a trap." Scott wanted to tell everything he had seen and heard in the base.
But Professor Charles waved his hand tiredly, motioning to Scott not to waste his breath. "No need to say anything, Scott. Magneto was here just now. He has told me everything. "
The appearance of this name made the group of X-Men in the plane feel suffocated.
"Professor, what is he doing here!" Scott had realized that something was wrong. But after Charles spoke, he knew how bad things were.
"It doesn't matter what he's doing. What you have to do now is to delete all the information of all the students overnight. You can't leave any information or traces about the students. "Charles' words shocked all the X-Men.
"Why!" This was what all the X-Men wanted to know.
