The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 775 Argument

Ling Xiao frowned, and asked very carefully: "Suppression, is it temporary suppression, or?"

"It's permanent." Hank McCoy said with heavy worry on his brows, "The doctor calls it the antidote."

As soon as Ling Xiao wanted to speak, Storm Girl sneered and said, "This is ridiculous, you can't cure mutants."

Hank McCoy forced a smile on his face and said, "Scientifically speaking..."

"When did we become a disease." Before Hank McCoy finished speaking, Storm, who was upset, had already said something.

"What both of you said makes sense." Ling Xiao waved his hands, signaling them not to quarrel, and then explained: "Mutants are actually some kind of genetic changes of human beings, but they want to completely eliminate the mutants. Ability must be genetically modified, and this aspect is very difficult and costly, and there may be some drugs that can temporarily suppress the ability of mutants, but it is absolutely impossible forever."

Hank McCoy shook his head lightly, and said, "They've tested it, and the subject hasn't recovered any ability yet."

"They used mutants as experimental subjects again!" Ling Xiao couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard this.

"It's voluntary." Hank McCoy quickly explained: "You also know that not every mutant can adapt to a life with abilities, the rejection of human society, the indifference of parents, the hostility of classmates and friends, some It is also normal to choose to eliminate abilities."

"We all understand that this is more guided by the government's public opinion." Ling Xiao sneered, and then continued: "As for what you said, there is no recovery ability until now, it can only be said that the effect of this drug lasts for a long time. , but the effect of the drug will end one day. When the drug is used next time, drug resistance will appear, and the period of drug effect will be shorter and shorter. I still think that if you want to remove the ability of mutants, you still have to Find a way at the genetic level."

Hank McCoy's face was very calm, and he said softly: "Maybe, but no one knows how long the effect of this drug is, whether it is 50 years or 100 years, for most people, This is basically equivalent to being permanently effective!"

Hearing what Hank McCoy said, Ling Xiao couldn't help being slightly taken aback, and said, "You're right, but it's still necessary to find out the validity period of the drug, and its ingredients, maybe Maybe we can develop a more effective antidote on this, and this antidote, we..."

"Ling, they're announcing it now!" Professor Charles stopped Ling Xiao, without any focus in his eyes.

Ling Xiao frowned, and quickly walked to the TV on the side, turned on the TV, and quickly tuned to the channel of the press conference.

On an island in the San Francisco Bay, a middle-aged man in his 50s is holding a press conference with hundreds of reporters.

"...these mutants are people, just like us, what they have contracted is just a disease that affects healthy cellular activity. But I hereby declare that you will have hope. This was once the most famous prison in the world, and now It will become a base for the liberation of mutants." Then, the middle-aged man took out an injection and said sincerely: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am here to present the solution to mutants, and we finally have the antidote for treatment .”

The antidote is real, and it is also effective. The middle-aged man is also very well-known in the United States. His name is Warren Kenneth Worthington II, and he is the director of the famous Worthington Industries. Long, Worthington Industries is one of the Fortune 500 companies with a huge fortune.

Regarding whether to use the antidote, even within the X-Men, there are frequent debates. Storm was the first to express her opposition. She was very dissatisfied and said: "Who wants to treat, cowards want to blend in with the crowd!"

"Saving the persecuted, how can you be considered a coward?" Hank McCoy was the first to express his dissatisfaction, he turned around, looked at Storm and said, "It's not easy to blend in with the crowd, and you won't lose your hair! "

Hank McCoy was originally a normal human being, except that his feet were a bit big and his figure was extraordinarily strong. At the same time, his brain was also very developed. In the early years, he was not only an important member of the X-Men Combat Li is also the technical expert of the team. He helped the professor tinker with equipment and even created his own weapons. He invented the Goose Plane of the X-Men, and the Butterfly Plane of S.H.I.E.L.D. referred to the Goose Plane technology.

Hank McCoy has a good relationship with Mystique Raven. In order to cure her blue skin, Hank McCoy specially developed a DNA drug, but Raven is unwilling to give up her own ability, and the potion that Hank McCoy drank himself in order to persuade her.

However, the result was that not only was his ability not released, but a second mutation occurred. His hair grew wildly, his skin turned blue, and he looked like a cat like a lion.

Unlike Wolverine and Storm, even after so many years, Hank McCoy wants to return to the appearance of an ordinary person, so he personally agrees with the use of potions.

"This is likely to be led by the government department." Logan also raised objections at this time. He did not raise any objections to this medicine. What he was worried about was problems on other levels. A conspiracy led by

Ling Xiao and Professor Charles glanced at each other, and both of them had serious expressions on their faces. They had already had a secret exchange about this.

In fact, as far as Ling Xiao and Professor Charles are concerned, it doesn’t matter whether this medicine is led by the government department or not. The important thing is that as soon as this medicine comes out, the government department will immediately start a large-scale promotion. Their attitude is very shocking. People are worried.

Anyone can imagine that once this antidote is applied on a large scale, it is conceivable that the number of mutants in this world will be reduced on a large scale. In this case, the resistance of the government departments will be greatly reduced. By this time , They forcefully push all mutants to be injected with this antidote, whether you like it or not, even the X-Men are no exception.

Because by that time, the number of mutants in this world will be greatly reduced, and the existence of the X-Men will no longer be needed.

So in this case, those X-Men members who are unwilling to inject the antidote will definitely stand on the opposite side of the government. What kind of situation, both Ling Xiao and Professor Charles can imagine, this is a conspiracy , an overt conspiracy to solve all mutants.

Although Professor Charles has devoted his whole life to the peaceful coexistence of humans and mutants, he is a mutant after all. He must deal with this kind of thing that threatens the future of mutants. As for how to deal with it, it is up to him. to think.

At this time, the debate between Hank McCoy and Logan was still going on, and Hank said with certainty: "I guarantee that the government department has nothing to do with this."

"I've heard this sentence before." Logan couldn't help but sneer. Over the years, the government has used mutants to conduct various experiments. The mutant X-Men have saved many mutant children. Colonel Stryker made Jean die for it that time.

"Listen, kid!" Hank McCoy said, staring at Logan, "I was fighting for mutant rights before you had claws."

Hearing what Hank McCoy said, Logan looked at Ling Xiao angrily and amusedly, and said, "What did he call me just now? Kid?"

"Okay, Logan." Ling Xiao patted Logan on the shoulder, then looked at Hank McCoy, and said, "If someone doesn't want to be a mutant, then he can inject the antidote and return to a normal person life, but we hope that there is one condition that the government can agree to, that is, no data level can be given to any mutants who undergo injections, Hank, you should understand what I mean."

Hank McCoy nodded. Ling Xiao was worried that this antidote would not have the expected curative effect. Once the effect of the medicine disappeared, and some people were no longer willing to use this medicine. At this time, the government department forced them to come to the door. Forcibly injecting the antidote may even bring these people to experiment.

"Listen to what you are talking about!" Listening to the conversation between Ling Xiao and Hank McCoy, Storm was very dissatisfied, and said: "Professor, they can't cure us, because we are not sick, all mutants are not sick .”
