Silence, absolute silence. This was the current situation of the Illuminati's new meeting. The five members of the Illuminati sat around the round conference table in silence.
Captain Rogers was staring at his shield as if he had seen some incredible work of art on it, which made him stare at it intently, and it seemed that nothing else could distract him.
Li Jie, on the other hand, sat in the chair and nibbled on his index finger, as if his index finger was very delicious.
Charles and Hank, on the other hand, were frowning and didn't want to say anything. Tony Stark was the first to lose his cool in this depressing atmosphere.
He couldn't help but say to Professor X and Beast, "Please! Could the two of you please say something?! Charles, you woke us up in the middle of the night. You suddenly told us that one of your students established a country in the Pacific Ocean. What's the name of that country? "
Li Jie replied to Tony, "Tuvalu."
"Yes! Tuvalu! "Tony nodded and said," A real sovereign country! And now, it was inexplicably recognized by the international community. To be honest, it was To be honest, your student really gave us a huge surprise! "
Charles and Hank remained silent. They didn't know how to respond to this matter. They didn't expect the closure of Xavier's Genius School to cause such a huge change.
Li Jie, who was listening to Tony's complaints, felt his teeth aching. The world was getting more and more out of his imagination. A seventeen-year-old girl had actually established a mutated human island country in the Pacific Ocean.
And it was actually legal and recognized by the international community. Although it was very likely that the other countries in the international community didn't know what kind of country they were recognizing.
"A country of mutants, Charles! It's not the kind of school you're talking about. It's a country. Do you know what this means? "Tony said weakly. He was helpless.
It could be said that the Illuminati gathered here today because of this matter that exceeded all expectations. No one would have guessed that Katie established a country. It could be said that everyone's first reaction was to pee their pants at the girl's actions.
Charles moved his lips and finally forced a smile. "Does it mean that my efforts in the past 50 years are not as good as a 17-year-old girl?" He deliberately wanted to change the topic and avoided the important point.
"Professor. We may not have time for jokes right now. " Li Jie exhaled and said seriously, "The establishment of a true mutated nation will become a target."
Li Jie began to speak his thoughts seriously. The others listened carefully, and their expressions became more and more solemn.
"From a certain perspective, a country of mutants will give all mutants a place to yearn for and identify with. This is different from your school, professor. Because not all mutants will go to your school. However, once Katie's country is made public, a country that everyone in the world yearns for will be born! "
Li Jie rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. "Then this will become the benchmark for all mutants. It's foreseeable. There will be many Mutants who have a natural good impression of this country, whether these Mutants are willing to join this country or not. They may not openly support Tuvalu, but in their hearts, I'm afraid they will naturally identify with this country. "
"And how many mutants are scattered around the world?" Li Jie glanced at Charles.
Charles closed his eyes and thought for a moment. "According to what I found from the brainwave enhancer, it should be close to 11 million."
"11 million, that's not a low number. It's more than the entire population of some small countries. "Compared to the world's population of more than 7 billion, 11 million was indeed not a lot. The proportion of mutants was less than one in 700.
However, in terms of the total population, if the mutants scattered around the world gathered together, it would still be very terrifying. Especially when most of these mutants had extraordinary abilities.
"This country will naturally have an appeal. Just like when Israel was founded. Although not all Jews will become Israeli citizens, everyone still remembers when Israel was founded, the world's Jewish population mobilized. Countless materials and funds poured into this newly established country. "What Li Jie said was actually what everyone was worried about.
That was, the Jews did not establish Israel peacefully. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict had not really been resolved to this day. Not to mention the four wars in the Middle East in the early days of the founding. The countries of the Arab world united to fight four tragic wars with Israel, in exchange for Israel's current territory and status as a regional power.
It was the tens of millions of Jews around the world who supported the newly established country of Israel to resist these cruel wars. They used their various connections and abilities from all over the world.
Countless mothers sent their children from all over the world to the battlefield of Israel, just to win the war to establish the country. Hundreds of thousands of volunteers rushed to Israel from all over the world. Even if they knew that the battlefield was a meat grinder, there were still countless people who went without looking back.
There were also the Jews who lost everything to support the establishment of the country. These people were not a minority. Because this people had experienced tragic massacres and discrimination, when a true country of their own appeared, the appeal and sense of belonging they had was unprecedented.
Now the situation of the mutants was not much better than the situation of the Jews back then. If Katie announced to the world that Tuvalu was a country of mutants, then Tuvalu would probably receive astronomical amounts of foreign aid and applications for entry tomorrow.
Charles' eyes were a bit complicated and anxious, "Katie, Katie just wants to build a [home] for the mutants. She doesn't have any desire for power or ambition. Tuvalu is not Israel. "
Li Jie agreed with what Charles said because he and Katie were also good friends. This girl was a gentle and kind person.
"Yes, Professor. If it wasn't for the fact that your student is still rational and hasn't publicized all this until now. And she doesn't have too much ambition, then I'm afraid we wouldn't be sitting here in a meeting now. It's very likely that they're preparing for a war, "Tony said with a hidden meaning.
