Chapter Eighteen; SHIELD's Temptation

"What a pity, I thought you would come to me in person." Professor X said with a smile.

"Let me be spared, professor, after all, there is a very important secret hidden in my mind. Although I believe in Professor, it is better to add an extra insurance. After all, I am the director of SHIELD, right?" Nick Fury said calmly on the screen.

"I have talked face to face with Ms. Carter many times, and that was an admirable woman." Professor X did not answer Fury's words positively, but said such an irrelevant sentence.

"Ms. Carter is indeed a great woman." Fury answered vaguely, and his momentum was immediately dispelled.

Paige Carter, one of the founders of S.H.I.E.D., and Captain America's real girlfriend, Professor X, obviously deliberately moved Paige Carter to suppress him, and the effect was also significant.

This is to tell someone at home that you are like your elders. Your aura is inherently weaker than others. There is no way, who can make people have a greater seniority?

"Before the conversation, let others go out first." Fury wisely chose to change the topic.

At this time, Colson, who was standing there calmly, immediately looked at Lu Yifang. Without Colson's words, Lu Yifang had turned around and walked out.

"Colson, so do you." Fury continued without hesitation.

"Okay, boss." Colson, who had pouted, had to follow him outside the door, and stood with Lu Yifang awkwardly.

"Do you know? I think we already have a common language."

"For example, we all obey a strong bald man." Lu Yifang raised his head and said half-jokingly.

Colson was silent for a while before he said, "Although I didn't mean that, now I have to admit that you have raised a strong topic that can be discussed for a long time."

While Colson was chatting with Lu Yifang all the time, the two bald big shots inside also began to formally confront each other.

"Professor X, I think you should know that I'm very taboo about dealing with you and your X-Men, but I'm still here."

"No, you didn't come. In fact, you just asked your subordinates to bring a tablet." Professor X said calmly.

"I don't want to talk to you about such a meaningless thing. I have only one purpose, that is, the Free Island incident." Fury said straightforwardly.

"Isn't the Free Island incident a thing of the past?"

"Past tense? Now all New Yorkers can see that the Statue of Liberty is being demolished and there is only a little handle left. People can see the changes that they can see as long as they look up. Do you think they will forget so quickly?"

"Then fix it, if the government lacks funds, I'm willing to help."

"Oh, this is a sincere reply, but it's no longer necessary." Fury waved. "An ice cream company came out at the first time to express its willingness to invest in the repair of the Statue of Liberty, and it also came with a full renovation, but the condition was to change the torch of the Statue of Liberty to their company's latest style cone.

It's simply incredible, are these guys crazy?"

"This may be a good idea. Young people nowadays are likely to like this change." Professor X said with a smile. His face did not change because of Fury's increasingly strong words.

"Do you know what I mean?" Looking at Professor X who was smiling, Fury's face became serious.

"The authority of the government! The Statue of Liberty is one of the symbols of the United States. The Liberty Island incident severely hit the authority of the government. For some reasons, the government cannot even announce the truth, which makes some people very uneasy."

"I know, but you are definitely not included among these people, SHIELD Director Nick Fury." Professor X also curled his smile and his expression became serious.

"When the authority of the government is challenged, those people will believe you more and need you more. You must know that there are also many people who oppose S.H.E.L.D. and think that S.H.E.L.D. interfere with democracy and freedom. Fury, you have made a profit in this matter."

"Yes, this incident has indeed made me more confident in asking the World Security Council for more resources to support it." Fury admitted this simply.

"But equally, I have to come up with some results to let them know that their efforts are rewarding."

"What was the white light ball that appeared and disappeared that night? My people had explored the area covered by the light ball, and all the animals and plants had some strange changes. When they finally concluded that the white light ball was strongly radioactive and likely killed people in New York City."

"It was just an accident," Professor X explained.

"This is not an accident, it is an unprecedented terrorist attack." Nick Fury said, slamming the table.

"But the terrorist attack you mentioned did not turn into a disaster. The X-Men stopped the disaster, and the initiator Magneto was sent to the military prison by me."

"Military prison? It's ridiculous. According to my information, those idiots have let Magneto escape several times. The so-called guard is just a joke." Fury said with a cold snorting.

"You should say this to them yourself." Professor X said disrespectfully.

"Those bastards!" Nick Fury cursed inwardly. As the spy leader, he has always been inconsistent with the military. Take the green monster that appeared at the University of Manhattan a few days ago. It is obvious that it was made by General Ross, who was fond of strengthening soldier research.

He said, this green thing was obviously masturbating in college with a woman in his arms, but the old guy was still hiding it and prohibiting S.H.I.E.L.D., will it take until the thing is demolished on the streets of New York that the old guy can stop committing suicide?

Therefore, given the military's usual style, Fury does not think he can win the right to be imprisoned by Magneto.

"Then what machine is used by Magneto, that machine should be with you." If you can't get the big head, you can't go back empty-handed. Fury is not the kind of person who is willing to suffer losses.

"The machine is indeed here with me, and it will be sealed up with relevant information forever." Professor X replied.

"Forever sealed? Who can guarantee that it will not fall into the hands of other thugs and then be made into a large-scale weapon of destruction, who can guarantee it?" Fury asked.

"I can guarantee it." Professor X stared at Fury and said in an unquestionable voice.

"I, Charles Francis Xavier, promised that that thing is as safe as it is in the hands of X-Men as it is in S.H.E.L. Is there any other problem?"

Seeing Professor X, whose attitude suddenly became tough, Fury opened his mouth and finally just sighed. Sure enough, ginger was still hot, and his bald head was still white.

"Professor X, my subordinates say that I am a strong person and will never suffer any losses, but today you did not make me a little advantage."

"Is that so? Then I'll add another one." Professor X sat upright, his soft gaze also became sharp.

"S.H.I.E.L.D.'s better stay away from that kid."
