Marvel: The Rise of Hydra

Chapter 184 Mutant Act

In a parliament where Jean Gray gave a speech, Dr. Qin took the initiative to express his closeness to mutants. He was impassioned and cadenced, which made people feel sympathetic and even empathetic.However, even this does not change people's assessment of the danger of mutants, and danger is often accompanied by fear and hostility.

Just like God does not favor mutants, the thing that worried Charles the most still appeared, and the situation finally developed towards the unfavorable situation for mutants.

"...varieties are more common in adolescence, induced by emotional ups and downs,"

At this time, an impatient voice interrupted Jean's speech, "Thank you, Miss Gray, it was quite educational, but you deviated from the topic of this meeting, which is, are mutants dangerous?"

Qin with eyes is both gentle and charming, and she with red clothes and red hair immediately retorted: "Your question is not appropriate, Congressman. Some people drive in car accidents..."

"So you have to test your driver's license."

"Yes, but there is no license to exist. In fact, in order to prevent mutants from receiving such hostility if they were to show up in public, it would cause panic, hostility, and even violence. I implore Congress to cancel the registration of mutants and force them to disclose their identities... "

At this time, the parliament member who had been obstructing him interrupted again, "Why are you hiding? Are you sneaking around?"

Qin retorted again: "They didn't hide."

"I know where they are hiding. I have a list of mutants living in the United States," Congressman Kelly stood up and showed the list to everyone. Qin's stop had no effect, and she could only stand a little awkwardly.

Kelly is still talking about it endlessly: "There is a girl who can pass through the wall, if he sneaks into the bank vault? Or the White House? Or your home? I have heard that mutants can sense and control human thoughts to deprive us of freedom. willing..."

"The fact is that mutants are all around us. We must find them out, study them thoroughly, and know their abilities..."

His hostile remarks against mutants were unanimously agreed by most people, and the mutants had to face the fact that they were a minority, but they threatened the safety of the vast majority of people.This is the fundamental source of the mutant crisis. Minorities are often not understood by people, and this time is no exception.

The Mutant Act was passed, which means that more intense confrontation and contradictions will erupt, but people have not realized this yet. Although the number of mutants is small, it is far beyond their expectations...

Charles, who had been sitting in a wheelchair listening, also felt a sinking heart. At this moment, he felt a familiar brain wave, which was the breath of his old friend Magneto, and Charles followed silently.

Charles stopped Magneto, his old opponent. Although the two had different ideas, they were both thinking about the future of mutants, but one was radical and the other moderate.

"Eric? Why are you here?"

Magneto didn't turn around, turned his back to Charles and said, "Why ask these questions you know the answer to?"

Charles didn't care, but said earnestly: "Don't give up on humans!"

"What do you want from me? Stop wasting your tongue."

"That's in the past, humans evolved."

"Yes, evolved into a mutant." At this moment, Eric pointed to his head and said, "What are you looking for when you enter here?" Then Eric turned to face Charles.

Charles said: "Hope!"

There was no change in Eric's cold face, and he still said stiffly: "I give you hope, old friend, I just ask for one thing, don't stop me!" After speaking, Eric turned and left, leaving only Charles indifferent Lonely figure.

A sentence came from the end of the corridor, "We are the future of mankind, and mankind has been eliminated."

……

Canada, Northern Alberta, Loffin City.

The girl who ran away in anger came here by someone else's car. She walked aimlessly, but she also had her own plan. She wanted to see the place she always wanted to go, so she came here.

It's just that this place is not as beautiful as she imagined. The people here are a bit cruel, at least not friendly to a little girl with no money.

Penniless, she came here and walked into a place with a lot of traffic. She wanted to get some money, but it was the first time she did so and she didn't succeed.

Inexperienced, she was attracted by the roaring and cheering people here. In the most central area, people in the closed iron cage were shouting for their favorite boxers. Yes, this is an underground boxing ring.

This is black boxing, but people don't care, after all, people cherish such scenes in such an era when the entertainment industry is underdeveloped.

A big man in the cage is dragged out by two people. This is Logan's special session.

Logan, who chose to leave with Keira, lived the life he wanted as he wished, which was ordinary and stable, but as the days passed, Keira also got old, her body was getting worse day by day, and she died of illness not long ago.

The heartbroken Logan chose to wander around and get drunk after burying Keira, and black boxing was a good way for him to make money. Since Keira died, he has been like this for a while.

At this time, another challenger appeared on the stage, and people would not care about their life or death, they only cared about how much money they won and how much they lost.But winning or losing here has no meaning to Mary, and she is penniless, and she is not even eligible to bet.

The bald man caused people to scream as soon as he appeared on the stage. After he appeared on the stage, the big man was told by the referee not to attack Logan's vitals. This would anger Logan, but the big man obviously didn't listen.

At the beginning of the match, the big man attacked Logan fiercely. Logan, who was not injured at all, was also angered by the pain. Logan counterattacked and knocked him to the ground with three punches and two kicks.There was no suspense in the game, and Logan still won the money.

At the end of the game, Logan met the naughty Mary, and the fate of the two began to intersect.

The big bald man who refused to admit defeat after losing money came to trouble Logan, but Logan refused to pay back the money. Logan saw this kind of person a lot, so he sent him away.But the bald man was obviously not convinced, he drew out his dagger and stabbed at Logan.

Seeing this scene, the little naughty reminded in time, and Logan, who reacted quickly, defeated the enemy with one blow, and stretched out his extremely sharp wolf claws to press it against the load-bearing column.

At this moment, the old bartender, who reacted a step slower, raised his shotgun to Logan's head, but Logan split the shotgun into two halves with a lightning-like backhand.Logan, who had obviously won a round in the confrontation, withdrew his claws and left here, and the little rascal who was still in shock quickly followed.

Many interesting things happened between the two along the way, but in the end they got along well and became friends.

In Logan's dilapidated RV, Mary relied on the instant bread that Logan had left for an unknown number of days to fill her stomach, and the two of them were chatting while enjoying the heater in the car.

Mary: "You stick out your paw, does it hurt?"

"It hurts every time...why do you call me naughty?"

"I don't know, so why are you called Wolverine?"

"My name is Logan."

"Mary!"

Logan: "Where are your parents? Walked out by yourself?"

When mentioning her parents, Mary's eyes lost all brilliance, "I ran out by myself, they won't look for me, I'm a monster in their eyes..."

Logan thought of something about his life experience, and asked after a while of silence: "What is your ability?"

Mary was startled, and then suddenly said: "Ability? I don't know, as long as I meet others, it seems to bring danger to others, and some people even... almost died because of it."

Logan looked at Mary, finally sighed, and said, "Is there nowhere to go? I know there is a place to take you. My friend is there."

Mary asked curiously, "Where?"

"A school, um, a...a school for mutants."

Mary was obviously much happier when she heard the news. It must be interesting to learn and grow with people of the same kind with diverse abilities. At least they won't call you a monster...

With longing, the two gradually drifted away. It is not a good situation to be a mutant in such a world.Most of the time, mutant powers bring you more than just themselves...
