Sentinel

Chapter 130 Conditions of Cooperation

"Are you going to send me to the dissecting table like Stryker?" The white-haired old man in a restraint uniform sat in an all-plastic cell, leisurely reading a newspaper to pass the time.

This is the eleventh underground floor of Umbrella's laboratory. Looking around, it is a fully enclosed circular space that is almost the size of an entire football field.When it was originally built, it was used to carry out small-scale ecosphere experiments, but due to funding and project problems, it was temporarily put on hold, and was transformed by Sean into a temporary prison to imprison Magneto.

"The mutant gene pool in the dam base is in my hands, why do you need me?" The young man chuckled. In fact, he wanted to bring Magneto to his side rather than cooperating with the professor. .

The bald old man who leads the Mutant Academy has too many moral shackles. Even after seeing the future of mutants, he is still unwilling to let go of his hands and feet. Magneto is completely different. He can sacrifice most people in order to achieve his goal. Even Mystique Ruiwen, who had been by her side loyally for many years, was abandoned several times.

In the hearts of the leaders of the Brotherhood, the future of the mutants is the most important thing, and the rest of the details are not worth mentioning. This is the goal of Magneto's half-life struggle. The meaning of his first half of his life was revenge, killing Sebastian with his own hands. Tian Xiao, the hatred and anger from his childhood, smoldering in his heart never abated.

That's why during the Cuban Missile Crisis, he ignored Charles' obstruction and pierced Sebastian Shaw's head with a gold coin, fulfilling his long-cherished desire for revenge.However, the story didn't end there. Eric Lancer, who hated police officers and evil scientists, inherited Shaw's will from another angle.

"You reached an agreement with Charles?" Magneto asked, putting down the newspaper in his hand.

The appearance of this young man disrupted all his plans. He originally planned to integrate the internal power of the mutants, then hid and hibernated, accumulated strength, and quietly waited for the time to lead his compatriots to rise. For this, he had prepared a comprehensive plan. He even planned to run an independent kingdom of mutants like Charles.

Sean nodded. He and the professor maintained a certain degree of tacit understanding with each other. Although Magneto's ability is indeed a big trouble, killing the other party will undoubtedly cause chaos among the mutants. It aroused the vigilance and hatred of Charles and the Brotherhood, so they simply put each other in prison just like in the original timeline.

"A cell made of plastic is not enough. I have been injected with inhibitors every once in a while. I have never seen a young man like you."

Magneto couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. He was buried in a top-secret area 130 feet deep underground. With a solid cell made of all plastic and an elevator controlled by artificial intelligence, the chance of escaping was extremely slim even if there was an outsider to rescue him.

"You are a well-known and strong mutant among mutants. You can control magnetism and manipulate metal. If you are not careful, I will be the one who will have a headache."

Sean said lightly, if Magneto's power is broken through enough to control the magnetic force in the center of the earth, then escaping from this prison will be easy.What's more, there is a Mystique Ruiwen who has changed a lot and escaped outside, probably thinking about how to rescue the leader of the Brotherhood from here.

"Actually, I'm curious. How did you convince the stubborn Charles? According to his previous temperament, he would never cooperate with someone like you."

Through a layer of plastic, Magneto looked at Xiao En. There was no doubt about the strength of the opponent. In a head-on collision without fancy, he actually lost to a fledgling young man.For the proud leader of the Brotherhood, this is undoubtedly a heavy blow. Except for being defeated by Charles a few times, he has rarely met a real opponent who can match himself.

"I just revealed the truth to him, that's all." Sean said softly.

He looked at the gray-haired old man, his eyes flickered slightly, "I learned about your future plans for mutants from members of the fraternity, are you interested in cooperating with me to be honest?"

At this moment, the young man looked like the devil in Faust, with a cold and indifferent hidden behind his sincere expression.Since you want to hold mutants in your hands, of course you have to use them rationally.

"I will not bow down to you." Magneto shook his head and refused without thinking, "After escaping from the concentration camp, I swear that I will never live in such a humble way again."

"I can be defeated and killed - but I will never bow to anyone!"

The old man's words were resounding, and his brows were full of arrogance. Even if he was a prisoner, he was as majestic as a king at this time.

Sean laughed "huh". He didn't expect Magneto to be his subordinate willingly. For a proud person, bowing his head and admitting defeat is more uncomfortable than losing his life.Just like Tony would rather die of palladium poisoning than take off that steel armor and be an ordinary ordinary person.

"I mean an equal cooperative relationship." The young man maintained good patience and was not annoyed by it. "In the future blueprint I designed, mutants have a place. The professor is responsible for establishing a positive image, maintaining cooperation with the government, and promoting The public opinion relationship with human beings, but there must be a person who shows strength and acts as the vanguard of mutants with a strong posture."

"I thought I was sentenced to life imprisonment and would stay in this place forever." Magneto laughed, using this to cover up his inner fluctuations.

After all, who doesn't yearn for freedom, especially for those who have grand aspirations and goals in their hearts, trapping them in a small house, letting time pass by, slowly waiting for the arrival of death, this invisible The torture is simply driving people crazy.

Sean observed the changes in the old man's expression, and he knew in his heart that of course he would not lock Magneto here forever, this cell was just a temporary shelter for him.

"I can provide mutants with a free land, the remote African continent, full of wars and diseases, poverty and hardship, various warlords, and political instability."

The young man stared at the old man with deep eyes, and his calm tone seemed to contain great power, which made people feel shaken, "You can choose to bring them war or peace."

The huge underground space was suddenly silent, and Magneto lowered his eyelids. After thinking for a while, he asked aloud: "What do you need from me? There is a proverb among the Jews, 'You can get nothing without hard work, only poverty'. There is no free thing in the world. Lunch, tell me what the cost is, and then I can decide if the risk is worth it."

"The mutants are just an advance army. The distant continent suffering from disease and poverty will attract the attention of the whole world in the future. At that time, the mutants can officially enter the world stage. Whether it is building a beautiful homeland or establishing a state power, No one will stop you again."

Sean was like a prophet, with a mysterious meaning in his voice, "I need a force to conquer a certain hidden kingdom for me."

Looking at the silent Magneto, the young man smiled slightly, turned and left. Anyway, there is still a long time, enough for the leader of the brotherhood to think clearly.

In the empty and quiet underground space, Magneto, who was wearing a restraint suit, slowly sat back to his original place. He picked up the newspaper, but didn't care to read any of the reports on it.
