"Here, here, and here … Check it again!"
Senator Kelly, who was wearing a serious suit and meticulously groomed himself, inspected the venue of the upcoming World Leaders Conference indifferently. This time, the conference was held in the square near the Statue of Liberty, which put a lot of pressure on the security work out of nowhere.
The politicians' brains were filled with sh * t, and they never considered such practical things.
"Make sure that there are no dangerous factors!"
The senator said to the military and police representatives behind him, "I don't think I need to remind you how important this conference is. What I want to say is, if there is even the slightest problem, you … everyone here, should be prepared to go to the Middle East for the rest of your lives."
This kind of threat was very uncomfortable to hear, but everyone had to admit that the senator was right. The leaders of more than 180 countries would be here to discuss world security matters. This was a matter of national dignity. If there was an accident, someone had to stand up and take the blame.
Therefore, they called in more police officers and checked everything around them again and again.
Senator Kelly stood at the edge of the venue. He was like a solemn bishop who made people feel depressed. He reached out his left hand, looked at the time, and then said to the people behind him.
"Has the Statue of Liberty been checked?"
The police chief wiped the cold sweat off his face. "Yes, it has been checked, three times! There won't be a problem. "
The senator nodded with satisfaction. "Very good. This afternoon, I'll let the elite troops directly under the Department of Defense be stationed there and leave the necessary equipment. You can leave at noon."
Hearing this, the police chief could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
He said in a low voice, "Okay, Mr. Senator, I'll arrange it right away."
The senator was very busy. He did not have much time to waste in this venue. A few minutes later, a bulletproof car stopped in front of him. Senator Kelly opened the door and said to the driver,
"Four Seasons Hotel … I'm going to visit some of my colleagues who have already rushed over."
"Okay, Mr. Senator."
A few minutes later, in the corridor of the Four Seasons Hotel, Senator Kelly looked around. After confirming that there were no stalkers or surveillance cameras, he reached out and pressed the doorbell.
"Clang, clang, clang!"
The councilman's face was still serious, but a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. A moment later, the door was opened, and a funny face came into view. The Mutant Toad, who was wearing a special goggles, tilted his head and looked at the councilman outside the door.
"Who are you? Are you in the wrong place? "
"Move aside, I'm looking for Eric!"
When Toad heard this name, he immediately became alert. He subconsciously reached out to clamp down on this guy, but 2 seconds later, Toad's body flew out of the house upside down. Senator Kelly stretched out his hand to straighten his tie, strode into the room, and then saw Magneto sitting by the window, seemingly enjoying the scenery outside.
At this time, he was unusually quiet. That strange dark red helmet was placed on the table at the side. His white hair made him look like an old man with one foot in the grave. Normally, if you met him on a car, you would subconsciously give up your seat for him. However, his eyes, sharp, firm, and stubborn, left a deep impression on people.
He would never be able to forget it after just one look.
"Damn you!"
Toad jumped up from the ground and lay on the roof. Just as he was about to attack, Eric waved his hand and a metal lampshade flew out. It quickly twisted into the shape of an iron chain and fixed Toad to the ceiling.
"Quiet! You're disturbing my enjoyment of the scenery! "
Eric said, and Toad immediately covered his mouth. After Magneto rescued him from that damn circus, he vowed to follow in the footsteps of the great Magneto in this life. For a loyal person like Toad, Magneto's orders were undoubtedly the highest standard.
"You're really in the mood for leisure …"
Senator Kelly lay down on the bed casually. He was no longer as serious as before. He took off his black-rimmed glasses and played with them in his hand. He said playfully, "If the news I received is correct, Salvatore's Angel and Plaice have been captured. They're now locked up in Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youths. Aren't you going to save them? "
Eric stretched out his hand, and the ceramic teacup that was heated in the kitchen moved steadily in the air like magic and finally fell into his hand. At this moment, Eric's figure, who was sitting on the chair, swayed a little. This was a visual dislocation caused by the rapid changes in the magnetic field. Magneto … Steel is just the lowest level thing to him.
If he wanted to, he could twist the magnetic pole of the entire earth.
"I don't need to save them …"
Eric took a sip of tea, narrowed his eyes, and said comfortably, "You'll help me save them, won't you? Raven … "
"Tsk, this isn't fun at all!"
Councilman Kelly's voice suddenly became delicate and weak. His body also quickly transformed, finally turning into a lithe body covered in blue scales. The Devil Shaped Woman … Raven.
Mystique stood up and gently wrapped her arms around Eric's neck like a lover. Eric also reached out and patted her arm.
"Charles will come too, won't he?"
"It's not just Charles … As long as you start your plan, the whole world will be a mess. Those rats from S.H.I.E.L.D. will also appear, and those idiotic superheroes will be active everywhere. It'll be bad, Eric, it'll be bad, and we'll be in danger …"
A smile suddenly appeared on Raven's face.
"But that's what makes it interesting. Seeing Charles being forced into our faction, seeing the two of you working together to fight against the world, makes me tremble all over. That's what you want to do, isn't it?"
She stuck out her tongue and licked Eric's earlobe. "You've never ignored his power, right?"
"Of course."
Eric's eyes also showed a touch of nostalgia. "Charles has a talent that makes me jealous. His ability is completely born for the Mutants' Utopia, but he pedantically believed in the words of those stupid humans. He was deceived! As a friend, we have the responsibility to let him return to the right path. No matter how many times he goes against us, he will always be our friend, and always the person we care about the most … Oh, Charles, that's our family. "
"Those children … Does Charles really have no ambition?"
Eric let out a low chuckle. "No, no, no. Our family member is very ambitious. I'm very curious. When he sees those children being shot by evil bullets and killed, what choice will he make? I'm very curious, really …"
"I want to remind you of one person, Eric. Your vision is too high, and you always ignore some uncertain factors."
Raven let go of Eric, she turned around and sat on the edge of the window, crossing her legs. She looked at Eric's gentle eyes.
"Saber … Saber Hawk, the guy who killed Riptide and completed a sky-stealing operation under our eyes. He's a troublemaker. I can feel that he'll be a real trouble. He's different from the cute and innocent Charles. Eric, he's a ruthless guy."
"Him?"
Eric shook his head. He seemed a little lazy under the sunlight, like a peaceful old man enjoying the afternoon sun. He said softly, "He won't be a troublemaker.
"He won't be a problem. In the Mutants' society, power is everything. He … is not worth mentioning! Asazo will take care of him. "
"I hate that name!"
Raven's eyes became dangerous. Eric put his finger on her face and gently stroked it.
"I hate it too … The things he did to you, we'll make him pay. A schemer hiding in our group, poor bastard … Don't worry, my Raven, after we make the best use of him, he'll be punished, I swear!"
"That's right, that girl … Pixie, that's her name, right? That girl must be sent here as soon as possible, she's the key to all of this! "
On the other side, at the Statue of Liberty, New York's most famous attraction, a group of armed soldiers wearing black combat uniforms and full helmets jumped out of a truck. They walked into the building under the lead of a major. The NYPD officers followed the orders of their superiors and began to change shifts with them.
When everything was over, it was already late at night. The major with a serious expression walked alone to the highest tower of the Statue of Liberty. There was an empty warehouse there, but he opened it. It was filled with a large number of complicated silver parts and machinery.
A dark red figure leaned against the pile of spare parts and smoked silently. He turned his head and saw the Caucasian major. He nodded at him.
"Start assembling. This is going to be a big project."
The major nodded, and his body shuddered slightly. Moments later, over 20 humanoid figures emerged from his body, and all of them were identical to him. They began to hurriedly assemble this special machine. Each of his clones had the physical body and strength of a normal person, and with over 20 of them working together, this complex machine was quickly completed.
The major stood in place, watching the progress of everything. He couldn't help but ask.
"Asazo, what … what is this for?"
"This is a special magnetic pole amplifier, my James."
Asazo leaned to the side, his red tail wagging in the air. Seeing the confusion on James' face, he explained again. "This thing is not used to change the Earth's magnetic poles. When it's activated, it will release a large amount of magnetic force with special radiation. There is only one purpose: to activate the dormant X gene in the bodies of ordinary people …"
Red Devil's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Permanent activation! It sounds great, right? But to be honest, this thing is useless in my opinion. There is a price to pay for its activation. Only those who can control the magnetic force can withstand its terrible pressure. Most importantly, once this thing is activated, it is difficult to stop until the last trace of energy in the user's body is squeezed dry. Drain them … and let them die. "
"Magnetic force?"
James turned his head sharply. He looked at Red Devil. "Magneto wants to use it? He wants to commit suicide? "
"No, no, no!"
Asazo's sneer turned into naked mockery. "How can the great Magneto give up his precious life? He has a natural replacement, a sacrifice, a pitiful girl … How ironic, isn't it? He says that he will treat all mutants as brothers and sisters, but in fact, when the real sacrifice comes, he will still subconsciously choose others to bear all this tragedy. "
"Who is the real Hypocrite?"
Asazo threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground. "But even so, I have to admit that he is a real genius. This thing will completely change the world! It will open the door to a new era, in a way that will make everyone panic. This kind of violent way, I like it … Let's go all out, James, our era is coming! "
He looked at the large, silver-white instrument that was gradually being assembled. He spread his hands as if he was hugging something. He whispered in a distorted, hoarse, and strange voice.
"Starting from tomorrow!"
