Beauty Man: All Heavens and Immortals

Chapter 171 Heroic Character
Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, it was three months later.

New York, Westchester County.

Xavier School for Gifted Teens.

The white-haired Storm stood alone on the balcony, staring blankly into the distance, her eyes absent-minded and gloomy, the sky that was originally clear, suddenly dark clouds covered the sun as Storm's thoughts changed.

"The weather forecast says it should be sunny today."

Professor X's gentle laughter came from behind.

Storm came back to her senses, turned around, and said apologetically, "Oh, I'm sorry."

After finishing speaking, he looked up at the sky, his eyes were completely white, and the wind and clouds disappeared immediately.

"I don't need mind reading skills to know what's on your mind."

Professor X laughed.

Storm forced a smile: "I just don't understand, William Stryker is dead, Magneto has become a fugitive, Minister McCoy is in the cabinet, Mr. President seems to be very kind, why do we still hide?"

"We didn't hide, and we still have enemies. I need to protect the students."

"Yes, but we can't be students forever, we will grow up one day."

"Haha, Storm, I have long stopped treating you as a student. In fact, I hope that one day, you can replace me."

Professor X said meaningfully.

Storm was startled, and asked with some incomprehension: "But Scott is the captain of the X-Men..."

"Scott he no longer fits."

Professor X sighed.

"Why? Could it be because of Jean and Logan?"

"It's mainly because of Qin. Scott grew up with Qin from a young age, and both of them have extremely special mutant abilities. Even here, it is difficult to make friends. These years, they have been with each other. The depth of his feelings is far beyond imagination."

"I can imagine that Qin and Logan... He doesn't mean to blame Qin at all. Qin is the greatest luck in his life to have him as a boyfriend."

Storm said with a little envy.

"This is exactly what I'm worried about. Scott values ​​the relationship between him and Jean too much, so he can give up everything for it... But Jean's situation is not optimistic. Once there is a major change, Scott will not be able to fulfill his X-Men mission. The duty of the captain..."

Professor X shook his head.

"..."

Storm was speechless, because as one of the witnesses of Cyclops and Qin's relationship, she understood that Professor X was not unfounded.

Professor X brought Storm to the office, and saw a beast with a purple lion head standing there, admiring the oil painting.

"Henry."

"Ololo, Charles."

Storm stepped forward to hug the beast, and said with a smile, "I like your new hairstyle."

"You too, thank you for willing to see me."

"You are always welcome, you will always be a part of this place."

"I have news."

"About Eric?"

"No, Mystique is under arrest."

"Magneto will save her."

"Well, but this is not the most urgent. A pharmaceutical company has developed a mutant antibody that can suppress the X gene."

"suppress?"

"Permanent, what doctors call an antidote."

Professor X looked inexplicable, and Storm said angrily: "It's ridiculous, you can't cure mutants, when did we become a disease?"

"Storm."

Professor X interrupted Storm, his eyes fixed, and he used his powerful telepathy ability to silently intrude into the consciousness of others, obtained information, and said solemnly: "They are already announcing the news."

Alcatraz, California.

This place was originally an island prison, but at the moment it is used as a base camp for 'rescuing' mutants. It has to be said that the top management of Jianmei is really full of malice towards mutants...

At the press conference, the media reporters who got the news had already set up their guns and short cannons, and started the live broadcast mode. The officials in charge of this matter delivered passionate speeches.

"These mutants are human beings just like us. They were just infected with a disease that affected healthy cell activity. But here I declare that you have hope. This used to be the most famous prison in the world, but now This place will become the base for the liberation of mutants. Gentlemen and ladies, here, I present to you the solution to the mutant disease, we finally have a cure."

As soon as this news came out, the world was shocked, countless human beings rejoiced, and the mutants were divided into three groups.

The first are mutants trapped in mutant powers who are desperate to eliminate the mutant powers affecting their lives.

The second type is firmly opposed to it. They like the mutant ability they have, so naturally they don't want to be eliminated and return to normal.

The third is irrelevant.

The number of groups that are resolutely opposed accounts for the majority, because as long as it does not affect life, having superpowers is almost everyone's dream.

This group of mutants took to the streets and held large-scale demonstrations.

into the night.

A meeting place with the words 'human beings stop'.

Mutants kept pouring in, listening to the mutants who tended to humans preach the benefits of the antidote, but obviously not everyone bought it.

"They want to exterminate us."

"Treatment is voluntary and no one is saying to exterminate us."

"It's true that no one brought it up, they just put it into action."

At this time, an old voice sounded, attracting everyone's attention. Magneto, who was full of white hair, stood up from the back row and walked slowly towards the stage, followed closely by Pyro John.

"If you continue to ignore these signs, one day, when the night falls and the air is still, they will come to you."

"you……"

Magneto interrupted the man, and raised his voice: "When you were still organizing protests, they were already in action. That's right, they have already made medicine into weapons and are ready to attack us at any time. What do you want? Freedom, can it resist their bullets? So, do you choose to join us to fight together, or sit and wait? Now is the time to choose."

After speaking, he led the fire man outside.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and three people walked out of it, following behind Magneto.

"What talents do you have?"

One of them turned into a hedgehog head, one sent out a shock wave, blasting things in the air, and the last one was extremely fast, and could sense the mutant's ability, strength, and position.

"Very well, can you find someone for me?"

"Of course, as long as she's a mutant."

New York, Umbrella Building.

Owen, who is Albert Wesker, is receiving the CEO of Pym Technology, Darren Klaus, with a 'combed' bald head, and is obviously another ruthless person...

"The high-level executives are still entangled in these trivial matters. I want to say that if they are willing to invest more in research and development of high technology, human beings will no longer need to worry about the issue of mutants."

Big Bald said disdainfully.

Owen agreed with a smile: "I agree with this. The mutant genes of mutants have their limitations. Naturally, they cannot compare with the rapid development of technology. For example, your company's research and development direction is to freely scale inorganic materials. Once successful, it will definitely completely change the world."

"Hehe, Mr. Wesker really has a vision. Yes, our company's inorganic material free scaling has reached a critical moment, and we will succeed soon. By then, Pym Technology will definitely surpass Stark Industries in one fell swoop and become the world's top As a listed company, all shareholders will get ten times, or even a hundred times the income."

Although the bald head is a scientist, he is also an outstanding businessman, and he took advantage of the situation to advertise.

There is a very interesting law in the comic book world, but any scientist is likely to become a villain, and those who are both scientists and successful businessmen almost 100% become super villains.

Norman Osborn, Victor von Doom, Darren Krauss...

"Of course, I absolutely believe in Pym Technology's research and development capabilities, and I also believe in Mr. Claus's leadership ability, so I decided to facilitate the cooperation between Umbrella Company and Pym Technology. I believe our cooperation will be very pleasant."

"You won't regret this choice."

The big bald head smiled confidently.

"Pleasant to work with."

"Pleasant to work with."

After seeing off the big bald head and returning to the office, Owen walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, looked at the noisy street outside, and the crowd of mutants protesting loudly, shook his head: "Justice and justice are only within the range of cannons, no matter how many protests It’s also not as frightening as a terrorist attack by Magneto, which made Jianmei’s senior management more afraid.”

Drip!

The phone rang, and when he opened the message, Owen twitched his mouth and muttered, "It still happened, it's my turn to play."

on the highway.

Several black SUVs surrounded a heavy truck, driving in an orderly manner.

Inside the heavy truck.

Mystique was imprisoned in a cell, and she would change into President Jianmei and threaten the guards for a while, and then turn into a cute and pitiful little girl for a while, but the guards in the car were all trained, so naturally they didn't accept this trick.

"Shut up, bitch!"

The little girl transformed into Mystique has slightly raised lips, and her smile is full of evil: "Wait until I get out, I will kill you with my own hands."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

The guard said nonchalantly.

Suddenly, the car swayed from side to side, and the guard who couldn't react in time fell over and over again, and the guard who bared her teeth with Mystique fell right in front of the prison cell fence.

Mystique stretched out her feet and broke the guard's neck, took the key, and using her flexible feet like her hands, she lifted the key, unshackled her, opened the cell, and walked out. At this time, the door of the truck was also opened. Magneto walked in coquettishly with Pyro.

"The time is right."

"The news I want."

"It's a mutant child. As long as you kill him, humans will have nothing to play with."

"very good."

Magneto scanned the two special cells next to him, stretched out his hand, and the special alloy door was opened immediately, and the clone and the tank were locked inside. Not surprisingly, both of them chose to follow Magneto.

Just when Magneto was full of ambition, a guard in the truck who was knocked unconscious woke up. Seeing this scene, he quietly put the special antidote bullet into the pistol and shot at Magneto.

"Be careful."

Mystique was the first to discover that she stood in front of Magneto, was hit by a bullet, and fell down. The antidote took effect instantly, and the red-haired and blue-skinned Mystique receded the scales on her body while breathing, turning into a woman with red fruit.

"You saved me."

Magneto said in shock, and then turned around and was about to leave when Mystique's complexion changed drastically.

"Eric."

"Sorry honey, you're not one of us anymore."

After finishing speaking, he walked out with Fire Man and others, and sighed as he walked: "It's such a pity, she was so beautiful..."

Mystique lay there in Chiguoguo, watching Magneto leave, and couldn't believe it. You must know that she had devoted her whole life to Magneto.

When she was young, for Magneto, she betrayed her brother, Professor X, who raised her, and became Magneto's lover and companion.

For decades, following Magneto, while solving his physical needs, while running for his ideals, she has fallen into crisis several times, and rescued Magneto from danger several times, now when she is once again desperately defending Magneto In the end, what was obtained was Magneto's abandonment without hesitation. This feeling made Mystique unbelievable at first, and then endless anger and hatred.

"Magneto, I'm not done with you!!!"

"Ahem, do you need help?"

A figure suddenly appeared in front of her, looked at her naked body, and said with a playful smile.
