[Comprehensive Yingmei] Really nothing happened

Over the years, the population of mutants has been continuously increasing.

That's a really good thing -- it's a pity that there are always two sides to everything.

Compared to humans, mutants are so powerful that they are afraid, and the number of mutants is still far lower than that of humans.

You know, the dark side of human beings is so deep that no one can understand.

——Arbitrarily deciding the fate of weak races, completely hostile to races stronger than oneself—this is human beings.

Many humans who extremely discriminate against mutants have established many so-called "research institutes".Yes, I think you can all guess what the "material" used for the experiment is.

A large number of small mutants are discovered by their parents as mutants because of congenital abnormalities (most mutants awaken their abilities during puberty, but there are also some who are born with obvious differences in appearance-such as night crawlers ), and then discarded.

Although these parents abandoned their children, a large part of the reason is because of the outside world's demonization of mutants, but it cannot be denied that they themselves are irresponsible.

No matter what kind of defects my children have, since I have chosen to bring them into the world.It means taking responsibility for raising them.

Of course, the focus of our discussion today is not here.

……

The increase in the number of laboratories related to mutants cannot be equated with "all laboratories are fairly well-equipped".In fact, because the sources of mutants can be considered extensive, these "researchers" treat the mutants here as one-off "material" to a certain extent.

Imagine what the Industrial Revolution would have looked like without labor laws, these minor mutants were very similar to those workers, only worse:

"Researchers" ≈ capitalists, mutants ≈ workers... that's almost the case, and capitalists are still the kind of scum who can exploit child labor.

……

As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance... no, what I mean is, there are people who are hostile to mutants, and of course there are people who want to help them, and members of this race also want to protect themselves.

—I mean, a good portion of the lab was destroyed by the X-Men.Although they are all mutants, to be able to enter this team, first of all, their abilities must be suitable for use in combat, and of course they have also undergone a considerable degree of training, and they have a very high degree of mastery of their own abilities.

Therefore, no matter from the perspective of safety or success rate, it is most suitable for them to carry out rescue activities.

— Not to mention that their stronghold is X Academy, if the rescued children don't want to leave, they can stay there to live.

……

The mind of a child is very fragile.Sometimes a trivial detail can completely destroy their minds.

It is conceivable that these so-called "laboratories" have long been the nightmare of those children who were arrested.Leaving aside the harsh environment, the character of those "researchers" is not guaranteed, that is to say... You all know what I mean anyway, right?

I have to say, fortunately, this is the superhero world, and there are superpowers.Otherwise... it would be a waste of time and effort just to deal with the psychological issues - and probably not get a good result.

However, there are always exceptions to everything.Even a telepathic ability as powerful as Professor X's can fail sometimes.

The way to deactivate (physically) is very simple - just have a gay purple helmet of the same style as Magneto.

There are other types of methods, of course, this is not the point, so I won’t go into details, simply speaking, people who also have the ability of telepathy will naturally have a certain resistance to the ability of other telepaths—yes, a little Like how vaccines work.

However, Professor X's strength is one of the best on the planet, and there are very few people who can completely resist him in terms of ability, and a large part of the reason they can do this is because of their rich experience... and we all know that experience is needed In other words, it is basically impossible for young children to completely stop it.

Haha, but we also know that there are always exceptions (it's normal to eat books or something - for sales, isn't it?).

In short... Today our topic starts with a group of children who were rescued from the laboratory.

……

The teachers and students of X College have long been extremely skilled at comforting these poor children who have been seriously injured physically and mentally at the same time.

I won’t go into details on how to do it—after all, I’m not an expert on parenting, so it’s kind of strange to say that these parents are short in this type of article.

When the children's situation gradually stabilized, the academy needed to make statistics on their abilities.

Although most children already have a certain understanding of their abilities, some of them have not awakened—they are basically abandoned by their parents because they were detected with the X gene—they don't need this.

However, the accident happened at this time.

……

"What's your ability?" Jean Gray asked the girl in front of her with a pen in one hand and a notebook in the other.

Qin hadn't talked to this child before, or rather, no one had talked to her in the past few days.This is also normal - after staying in that kind of ghost place for so long, it's just that his personality is a little withdrawn, which can be considered good.

Qin has done this several times, and with her IQ, there shouldn't be any mistakes.But for some reason, Qin always had a very strange feeling, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

The girl pursed her lips, frowned, and said nothing.

Qin comforted: "It's okay, we're just doing statistics, and we won't do anything bad."

The girl was silent for a while, and squeezed out a few words from the corner of her mouth, "...can't say it."

"Why not?" Jean asked.

She shook her head and remained silent.

Qin can't help it either.She can't use her abilities to brain other people... Wait?

She finally remembered what was wrong.

Because her ability is too powerful, it is difficult to control, and she often sees other people's hearts involuntarily.But since just now, she has not felt even the slightest psychological activity of the child.

There are not many mutants with similar abilities, but it cannot be said that they are unique.However, this is not the only situation.

As I said before, Qin's ability is very strong - that is to say, even with spiritual abilities, it is difficult to completely resist it.

So, to be able to meet the requirement of "completely shielding her ability", this little girl's ability... I'm afraid...

……

Needless to say, the persecution of mutants from the outside world has also led to considerable unity among mutants... Although the differences on the fundamental issue (simply put, the difference between conservatives and radicals) have divided them into two factions, But this difference in concept usually doesn't lead to any fatalities...

——Yes, usually, after all, we must not forget the possibility of "sworn personal enmity"...

Of course, this is just a special case. Before Dayi (why do you feel that this word has a subtle sense of disobedience...), most of the personal grievances can be let go-not to mention that this matter is not trivial, and they There's nothing to write about between the two, is there?

……

"Don't worry, kid, we won't use your ability to do bad things." Professor X gently persuaded.He has done some research on psychology, and he has brought so many students over the years, many of whom are brats, and he knows how to guide them.

The girl's expression loosened a bit, but she still seemed concerned.

Professor X thought for a while, and then persuaded: "If your ability has any side effects, you can also tell us, maybe we will have a solution here?"

The girl was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "...It can't be cured."

"...What?" Professor X was taken aback.

……

It seemed that those words represented a softening of the girl's attitude, and she was finally willing to speak out about her situation.But……

"Poison?" After hearing her answer, Professor X was slightly taken aback.

——Because it is too simple, it is hard to figure it out.

Seeing that he didn't seem to have reacted, the girl added: "...meaning that everything inside my body is toxic."

"This..." Professor X fell into deep thought.if it is like this……

Most of the abilities of mutants are awakened during puberty - note that it is "awakening" rather than "acquisition". suppressed.But her ability like this... Obviously, it has affected her since she was born - and it is definitely not a positive influence.

She can live up to now (…), obviously the body has been—or from the beginning, has acquired the adaptation to the toxin, but the side effects and the like… From a certain point of view, it is impossible to live without , but the specific side effects should be considered according to the situation.

So Professor X asked: "So... child, since you said so, then... do you mind..." He gestured, "Shall we draw a little blood from you?" But the next second, he realized When something happened, he immediately explained: "...No, I mean, our purpose is not to be like those people in the laboratory..."

He knew the character of the so-called "researchers" in those laboratories - the behavior of "going to this kind of place to 'do research'" is enough to explain everything.

After such a long time, he also knows very well what kind of haze these rescued children will leave in their hearts.

but……

"Yes." The girl replied succinctly.
