Chapter 22 The real goal

After seeing the people around him standing motionless like wax statues, the little naughty man immediately said:

"Bobby, what did you do?"

Although everyone in the school knows that Professor X is a powerful telepath, not many people have seen Professor X use his superpower to immobilize other people.

Because Iceman had just used his superpower, the little naughty boy instinctively thought that this was what Iceman did.

"It wasn't me."

Iceman also looked puzzled.

This was the first time he had seen such a weird scene.

After all the ordinary people in the venue were settled, the venue, which was so busy just now, suddenly became quiet.

Except for the automatically played radio and video sounds, the entire venue seemed extremely quiet.

It's a bit eerily quiet.

"Although Eric can manipulate these things from prison, doing so is pointless and would hinder his goal of allowing mutants to thrive."

"Professor, you mean the master theory?"

"It doesn't matter, just tell me your guess."

After seeing Roy's deliberately fake expression of doubt, Professor X shook his head helplessly.

"An assassination attempt on the president would lead to the government once again introducing the Mutant Registration Act."

Professor X said helplessly.

But now, the attack on the president will make the government reconsider whether to implement the Mutant Registration Act.

The security force of the White House may be able to prevent attacks by conventional forces.

Professor X quickly replied.

The target is school?

Roy's words immediately attracted the attention of Cyclops and others.

"To give a simple example, if I were someone who planned an attack, I would definitely consider all possibilities."

The reason why ordinary people are hostile to mutants is because mutants possess powerful power that ordinary people cannot compete with.

But for mutants with superpowers, White House security is full of holes.

"Yes, if Eric continues to stick to his superior theory."

Although he could understand Professor

"For example, it could arouse ordinary people's hatred towards mutants, or let the officials re-introduce the mutant registration bill."

But even if he is not a time traveler, he will have similar doubts.

Cyclops looked at Roy and asked quickly.

"I don't think so."

"Don't worry, everyone here should be able to do it."

"I agree with what the professor said."

"But I think the person behind the attack may not be targeting the president, but the school."

"That's right, I have such a guess, mainly from the perspective of the planner."

After arriving in front of the three Icemen, Professor X said to the Fireman with a serious face.

"Maybe worse!"

"What do you want to say?"

"Sources indicate that this may be a terrorist attack planned by one or more mutants."

He originally thought that he would not need to participate in this internal discussion, but Professor X said that he was also a formal member of the X-Men.

Professor X opened his mouth to explain.

So, he appeared here.

At this time, he controlled the electric wheelchair and drove towards the Iceman trio.

"Urgent news! Live reports from Washington, the Oval Office of the White House was attacked, and the president and vice president are safe and sound."

"Qin is right."

Cyclops gave his own opinion.

One is his girlfriend, and the other is his teacher who personally teaches him how to become an X-Men.

Cyclops said to Professor X.

"Stop showing off in the future."

Roy said quickly.

Professor X said with a serious expression.

Although not every mutant can possess such powerful power, as long as there are one or two, it is enough to make ordinary people instinctively hostile to mutants.

Mutant Registration Act!

From a certain perspective, the Liberty Island incident was caused by the Mutant Registration Act.

When passing by Roy, he turned his head and glanced at Roy, as if asking him with his eyes why he didn't stop Pyro and Iceman just now.

"The president could just declare martial law and put all the mutants in jail."

Therefore, even if he is still a student, he still needs to participate.

Just when the mutant students were looking at these ordinary people who were immobilized curiously, Professor X's voice rang out.

Principal's office.

"The way I see it, this is what Magneto planned."

After the Liberty Island incident, the Mutant Registration Act was temporarily shelved due to Magneto's arrest.

Although he has such speculation, it has to do with the fact that he is a time traveler.

Although Magneto is very suspicious, Phoenix Girl does not think that this terrorist attack was planned by Magneto.

In addition to teachers such as Professor X and Cyclops, Roy is also in the office now.

"It's not that I look down on the security forces around the president, I just feel that if someone really secretly planned the attack, with the power of mutants, the security forces around the president won't be able to do much."

If they refuted their opinions, he would not have any objections.

"Yes."

Roy, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.

Although his opinion was refuted by Phoenix Girl and Professor X, Cyclops didn't take it too seriously.

Storm said quickly.

Two hours later.

"If my guess is correct, this attack should be to pave the way for the next action."

"Yes."

If it weren't for this bill, Magneto wouldn't have had the crazy idea of ​​turning all the leaders attending the summit into mutants.

The sudden interruption of emergency news immediately attracted the attention of Roy and others.

"Professor, I think we should go."

…

"First of all, this is just my guess. I don't have any evidence to prove this."

"Um...can I express my opinion?"

Before Burning Man could answer, an emergency news message was broadcast on the TV inside the venue.

After hearing Professor X's words, Cyclops and the others also realized that this attack would be more troublesome than they imagined.

"So the fact that the president is safe and sound is very suspicious."

Even Professor X looked at him with a puzzled expression at this time.

School for mutants.

Cyclops asked quickly.

"Are you saying that someone deliberately planned this attack, and the target was not the president in the first place?"

It really happened!

After seeing this urgent news, Roy knew that the next few days would not be too peaceful.
To be continued...
