Over the past year, the X-Men have been searching for mutants everywhere and invited them and their families to come here, so there are actually many ordinary people on Paradise Island. Fortunately, all mutants know that ordinary people on this island are family members of mutants, so there have been no attacks on ordinary people.

But at this conference, it seems that the number of ordinary people is slightly too high.

Although he had such doubts, this matter had nothing to do with Zhan Liu, and he didn't care. He just sat in his seat and waited for the conference to start.

All the guests and media reporters were very punctual, and the conference was officially held on time at ten o'clock in the morning.

In the solemn music, Raven was dressed in a formal dress, pushing a wheelchair, with Professor Charles in formal clothes sitting on it. Behind him, the X-Men and the Brotherhood of Mutants were in a row, all dressed in formal clothes, following behind them, from People filed out of the entrance and into the stadium.

After reaching the middle of the venue, Raven continued to push Charles forward. In the center of the venue, a podium had already been set up.

The other mutants dispersed into the mutant audience and sat down separately. Looking at their distribution, you can see that each of them is assigned a small area, and it is unclear whether it is used to defend against attacks or to suppress abnormalities.

After Raven pushed Charles onto the stage, Charles delivered a speech. At the founding ceremony, having Charles, a good old man with a gentle temperament, deliver the speech can be more easily accepted by various countries and avoid irritating them too much.

The speech process was lackluster, basically the same as all celebrations.

Recall the past, look forward to the future, and then talk about the concept of peaceful founding of the Mutant Kingdom, to give some reassurance to all countries, and then talk about the hope that humans and mutants will cooperate and coexist, work together, build on today, and create glory together.

These things are necessary procedures. Except for the excited mutant group in the audience, all the guests had no feelings at all. They just applauded symbolically and supported it purely as a courtesy.

Then, just when Zhanliu and all the guests thought that the founding conference would proceed peacefully, something unexpected happened.

After Professor Charles finished his speech, he was pushed in a wheelchair by Ororo and got off the podium, while Magneto Eric fell majestically from the sky and landed on the stage.

Everyone was shocked and hurriedly increased their concentration. The media also raised their microphones and cameras high, hoping to capture something different.

Eric looked around, and then without saying any nonsense, he announced directly:

"Next, Mr. Norman Osborne and Mr. Harry Osborne are invited to take the stage."

The guests below were slightly commotion for a while. After all, the Osborne Group is also a world-renowned conglomerate. At such a sensitive time, it would be too high-profile to appear at the Mutant Founding Conference.

Although the Osborn Group has been secretly supporting the establishment of the Mutant Kingdom before, it has provided a lot of material, financial, and even human support. But he is not the only one doing this kind of thing. Many large international groups are doing this kind of thing secretly.

The establishment of the mutant kingdom itself is a very huge profit-making project. As long as the final kingdom exists, the large groups that invest here will definitely make a lot of money.

Capitalists have no nationality, and those with nationality are not qualified capitalists.

Although the governments of various countries are not very happy with this kind of thing and think it is an act of treason by capitalizing on the enemy, the capital of various countries has historically done this kind of thing countless times, and it is impossible to investigate it, or even impossible to investigate it at all.

But doing things behind the scenes and standing up for mutants in the open are completely different concepts.

In this world, there are many things that can only be done but not said.

To make a watch, you must build an archway, otherwise you won’t be able to sell it at a high price!

Humans are so hypocritical!

After the Osbornes walked out of the guest seats and stood on the stage, Eric took a step back slightly and stretched out his hand to signal Norman Osborne.

Norman nodded, took a step forward, leaned in front of the microphone, and announced loudly: "I, Norman Osborn, voluntarily join the family of mutants. Magneto will activate the X gene in my body for me. I now invite the world to All the viewers will witness it together!”

There was a huge uproar below. If Magneto hadn't been so intimidating, reporters who didn't know how to write the word "death" would have rushed up to ask questions.

Next, Harry followed his father and made the same announcement.

Then, in full view of everyone, Eric put his hands on Norman and Harry's heads and activated his abilities on them. After a moment, Eric retracted his hand, and the two of them exploded with powerful energy. energy of.

This energy is very huge, and the two of them have just awakened, and they obviously don't control it very well, and there are obvious signs of leakage. However, Magneto stood nearby, stretched out his hand, and controlled this power within a small range. He even had the energy to protect the podium from being affected.

But even so, in the eyes of everyone and in front of the camera, the distorted space around the two people can be clearly seen.

But more importantly, the appearance of the two people has not changed in any way. They are still the original human images, instead of turning into those weird and crooked beings. For example, frog people or something like that.

For the vast majority of mutants, the abilities generated after gene activation are uncontrollable. No one knows whether what they will get after awakening is a powerful ability or something useless.

But this awakening is irreversible, and there is no way to return to human form.

Mutants are discriminated against, and many of them are due to their weird appearance and useless abilities. If all mutants could maintain their human form after awakening and have extremely powerful abilities, ordinary people would probably be more envious!

The guests present were mostly sensitive people, and they immediately realized the meaning behind this behavior.

Don’t those political elders want to have super powers? It's just that this ability is uncontrollable.

But if Magneto can really activate the X-gene, it can ensure that this ability is powerful, controllable, and maintains the human form. There must be many politicians who secretly join the mutants and give themselves superpowers.

Don’t doubt it, these politicians can definitely do it!

If Charles's speech just now was gentle, then Magneto's behavior now is half threatening and half tempting.

With Magneto's ability, can he easily activate the X-gene of all humans? Even if it is not possible to activate everyone, is it possible to activate people in a country or a city?

While everyone was whispering, Magneto stood in front of the microphone and announced loudly:

"In view of the contribution made by the Osborn Group in the establishment of the Mutant Kingdom, this artificial activation of the The x gene will not be activated for anyone else."

The discussion below became even louder.

Only a fool would believe this!

This is a kind of declaration, don't mess with me in the future, I will not engage in artificial activation, and everyone will be safe. But if humans cause trouble again in the future, artificially increasing the mutant population might happen.
