Sentinel of American Comics

Manhattan, Battery Park.

An ordinary-looking middle-aged man walked through the busy avenue, carrying a black briefcase, walked into a narrow and dark alley, followed the route in his memory, and came to a building hidden deep in the block. Old building. He pressed the bell outside the door. After a while, the small window on the door opened, revealing a vigilant face.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Mutated and proud!"

The middle-aged man replied coldly, and the two parties exchanged signals like joint agents during the Cold War. With a clang, the reinforced iron door was opened, and the man carrying the briefcase walked straight in without squinting.

The moment he stepped into the door, the ordinary middle-aged man suddenly changed. Under the black windbreaker, a bumpy blue body appeared. Mystique walked gracefully in this old building from the last century. , you can occasionally see some weird-looking guys on the way. They are all recruited by Magneto and have unique superpowers.

boom!

A burly body was thrown at the feet of Mystique Raven like a cannonball. She paused and realized that it was Victor, a saber-toothed tiger with a weak mind. This beast with low IQ didn't know how to offend him. Angry at the bad-tempered mutant leader.

There was a loud sound from upstairs, like the sharp sound of countless metal collisions. Raven turned her head and looked at Toad squatting in the corridor. Eric rarely got angry like this. She couldn't imagine what was going on. Who angered the powerful Magneto.

Mystique twisted her waist and walked upstairs. The room that belonged to Magneto was in a mess. Papers were scattered on the floor like snowflakes. All the metal tables, chairs and utensils were overturned. The initiator of all this destruction, Waist Standing in front of the computer with his back straight, like a silent statue.

"What happened, Eric?" Magneto calmed down his anger. There were only a few people in the world who would call him that.

"Since humans want a war, then I will satisfy them!" The old man wearing a helmet said in a cold voice. The web news on the computer screen was all about mutants being captured and killed for illegal in vivo experiments.

Raven stepped forward and browsed through it roughly. Angry fire appeared in her yellow pupils, and her eye sockets were slightly red. Looking at the cruel situation of those compatriots being tied to the operating table and being slaughtered like livestock, hatred was like a raging fire. It gnawed at the heart, and bursts of tearing pain eroded the body.

"Eric..."

"This is the reason why Charles and I parted ways... He always believed that human beings are full of beauty and goodwill, so he looked forward to the day when mutants could coexist harmoniously with humans and live together on this planet."

Magneto has regained his composure. He stared at the news report on the computer with a sneer on his face: "He has forgotten, or is unwilling to admit it, that no race will accept a group of aliens, especially if they can also pose a threat to themselves. This is not racial discrimination, but a complete racial war! Mutants need a better life, we are tired of being hunted, ostracized, hiding here and there, like rats in the ditch!"

"We are neither aliens nor freaks - mutants are the pioneers on the road of evolution, and we are proud of our innate talents! This time, I want the whole world to face our existence, even Charles You can’t stop me!”

Magneto's tone is passionate. He has been dormant for half a century. He believes that the time has come. The mutants have had enough of hiding in the dark. They want to make a formal appearance on the stage and make their voice heard to the world!

The high-end heads of state summit on Liberty Island is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity. Magneto designed a conversion device that can mutate the genes of ordinary people into mutants - although during the forced transformation process, the original human body will be violently destroyed. The stable gene chain leads to the collapse of one's own genes, and at least half of the people will die as a result.

But this mutant leader who hates humans doesn't care about this. He wants to warn humans in this way that mutants are not vulnerable objects to be slaughtered. They are lions with sharp claws, and humans themselves are just the weak lambs. .

"Maybe we can change our approach to sound a wake-up call to those humans."

Magneto looked at the graphic information on the computer screen and couldn't help but recall the miserable days when he was imprisoned in the Auschwitz concentration camp. Every day he worried about being sent to the gas chamber or becoming the object of fun of an officer. Those were the darkest days that Eric had ever experienced. He witnessed with his own eyes how the Nazi officers slaughtered the Jews as if they were livestock, driving them into the pit, and then shot and buried them, or sent them to the gas chambers. Used to test the powerful lethality of chemical weapons.

It turned out that Eric could not escape such a tragic fate. A famous scientist named Sebastian Shaw discovered that he was different. In order to stimulate the powerful abilities in his body, the other party shot his mother face to face. , in an extremely angry mood, he awakened the innate ability to control magnetic fields, and thus began the legendary life of "Magneto".

Before meeting his old friend Charles, who fell in love and killed each other, Eric lived only for revenge. But after killing Xiao, he chose to fight for his compatriots, inheriting the enemy's ideas in disguise and building a beautiful country for mutants.

"I thought the plan to attack Liberty Island was too risky before. Politicians from so many countries were killed as a result, and mutants would become public enemies of the world. But there is no problem in taking action on Watson Company. The human government may be angry, but that's not the case. It touches their sensitive nerves.”

Mystique Raven put her arm around Eric's shoulders. Because of her plan to attack Liberty Island, she disguised herself as a government servant and secretly obtained the list of dignitaries participating in the summit, as well as the itinerary and security arrangements.

As one of Magneto's most trusted helpers, Raven does not agree with Eric's attack plan. This will not change the difficult situation of fellow mutants. Instead, it will arouse suppression and vigilance from the human government, completely setting off a conflict between the two races. war between.

At that time, the living environment for mutants will become more difficult than during the Cold War, and the fragile peace that Charles has carefully maintained for many years will be broken in an instant.

"You're right, now is really not the best time to confront human conquest." Magneto followed Raven's suggestion, and he sighed softly: "Riven, you are still so young, and Charles and I are already old. .”

Mystique fell silent. The high-spirited Magneto in her memory had quietly become an old man with wrinkles on his face. Although he was still full of strength, he was no longer young.

"Charles and I have taken different paths, but our original intentions are the same. We both hope that our compatriots can live freely in this world and no longer fear other people's strange eyes."

Magneto's eyes were full of nostalgia. Who could have imagined that half a century ago, he and Professor X, another leader of the mutants, trusted each other and fought side by side.

Curbing his occasional nostalgic emotions, Magneto's face gradually became as cold as steel, and he said in a deep voice: "I want to use Watsonon's destruction to remind the world that mutants are not weak lambs who can be bullied! "
