Marvel Administrative Officer

Chapter 314 Mutants want to establish a country
Jack didn't know the purpose of the professor's trip, but he wasn't surprised that the professor would come...

Because when the auction was still in the preparatory stage, Jack had thought that the professor would come. He couldn't explain the reason, but this premonition was very strong.

When Jack saw the professor and Magneto, he was very nervous, but the boulder in his heart also fell to the ground!
No matter what the professor wants to do... there is a high probability that tonight will be the moment when the answer will be revealed.

So Jack relaxed after a while of nervousness.

On the contrary, Tony was a little uncomfortable. He kept changing his left and right legs, and his buttocks felt like pins and needles.

Meanwhile, the presenter struck the gavel again, and after an initial nervousness his professionalism came into play,
He controlled a little commotion at the scene at an extremely fast speed, then gave up the opening remarks he had prepared, and after a brief introduction, he quickly launched the first auction item...

The staff carried a car into the venue.

Then the moderator began to introduce:

"Our first auction item comes from the magnetic levitation car donated by Mr. Tony Stark. Of course, this is not a real magnetic levitation car, but a concept car launched by Mr. Howard Stark in the 70s...

More than 30 years have passed in a hurry. Not long ago, Mr. Tony Stark has fulfilled his father's expectations and created a real magnetic levitation car, which also makes Mr. Howard Stark's concept car even more historic...

The starting price is $[-], please start bidding! "

Jack was a little surprised that Tony actually took out this item. You must know that after Jack's enlightenment, Tony's influence on Howard has changed a lot.

For Tony, this may be one of the few souvenirs left by Howard... As for Tony advertising his magnetic levitation car through a charity auction, Jack felt nothing.
After all, apart from being a superhero and a rich man, Tony is also a very business-minded businessman.

But just when Jack was about to say something, Professor X on the side spoke first:

"I was also in the Stark Industry Expo at that time. Afterwards, I realized that I passed Captain America. Now that I think about it, it is really an era that people will miss forever."

For Professor X's sudden emotion, Jack only felt caught off guard. Fortunately, Tony on the side was not weak and said:

"Then today you shared a seat with Tony Stark and Jack Murdoch, and you will be missed in the future."

The professor laughed, looked at the two of them squarely and said, "I really should feel honored!"

Tony snorted coldly, and expressed the same question as Jack,
"What do you want to do here today?"

The professor shrugged and replied, "Don't worry, I'm not here for you...Be patient, you will know the answer soon!"

Tony wanted to ask again, but was pushed lightly by Jack, so he had to stop talking.

At this time, the audience has already started bidding...

Speaking of which, although Tony Stark is not the richest man on earth yet, he is the most well-known rich man... I don't know how many people in the audience want to have a relationship with him.

So the bidding seems to be very fierce...

30, 70, 100 million, [-] million...

The bidding price went up all the way, and finally came to an astonishing 140 million!

At this time, the U.S. dollar has not depreciated, and 100 million U.S. dollars can be regarded as amazing wealth for ordinary people...

It is an amazing move to bid 140 million for a model concept car.

Everyone in the audience, including Jack, looked at the bidder... The bidder was a thin young man, very unfamiliar!

Fortunately, the host has already started to introduce:

"Congratulations to Mr. Justin Poppy for bidding the first auction item...Maybe people here don't know much about Mr. Poppy, he is a very talented newcomer singer..."

Hearing this introduction, many rich and famous people showed disdainful eyes.

On such an occasion, a rookie singer was really not enough to see, and many people even regretted that they should not have stopped bidding.

But no matter how much they regretted it, it was a foregone conclusion that Bobby would take the first auction item. Afterwards, Bobby waved his hand and the host invited him to the stage.

Young people are always very unconventional, especially Justin Bobby, who became famous at a young age, is even more energetic!

He took the microphone and said to Tony:
"Mr. Iron Man, I'm a big fan of yours, and I'm so happy to see you here..."

Mr. Bobby was asked to step down after a flattering compliment.

Jack couldn't help poking Tony at this moment, and asked:
"Is this what you arranged?"

Tony replied angrily: "How is it possible! He really worships me!"

Jack couldn't believe it.

The professor on the side smiled and said, "I can testify for Tony."

There are not many things in this world that can be hidden from the professor, which is one of the reasons why the world fears mutants. After all, no one wants to stand naked in front of others.

Apart from this small episode, the auction went on as usual, and more and more donations were raised, breaking the historical record...

Although Caddy had already estimated the results before the auction, Jack was still very happy when the reality happened.

……

When the auction reached the last item and the host was just about to introduce a string of pearl necklaces donated by the world’s richest man Gatsby,

The richest man went straight to the auction stage, took the microphone from the host, and said with a smile:

"After seeing the auction items contributed by everyone in front of me, I feel a little petty, so can I change the items temporarily?"

With that said, Mr. Richest Man set his sights on Jack...

The process and items of the auction are all prepared in advance. It is probably the first time in history that such a temporary replacement is made. It seems a little weird everywhere.

However, as the organizer, Jack must maintain his demeanor. He stood up and responded:

"Any item is everyone's charity to New York. First of all, I would like to thank you on behalf of the people of New York... Mr. Gatsby wants to replace the item because he wants to make a greater contribution to New York. I must Applause for your decision."

As he spoke, Jack took the lead in applauding, and the audience immediately burst into applause.

After the applause stopped, Gatsby laughed and said:
"Mr. Mayor's words made me even more ashamed, so I donated my small island near San Francisco, hoping that this will help the people of New York."

Donate an island?

Jack didn't understand Gatsby's intention...

The host probably had no idea about the island, so he asked Gatsby, "Sir, what do you think is a suitable starting price?"

Gatsby smiled shyly: "After my team's research, this island should have been formed by a meteorite that landed on the earth millions of years ago. The island's area is not small, so I set a starting price of [-] million US dollars! "

One hundred million dollars!
Some of the hundreds of celebrities in the audience couldn't help but exclaim!
That's a hundred million dollars...

You must know that although there are many people who come to this auction, there are only a handful of people who can really take out [-] million US dollars!

Even if it is available, how many people will spend [-] million US dollars to buy a small island without any information.

After a while of whispering, the whole venue became silent again.

Jack looked at Gats Bee. He had nothing to do with the richest man in the world. On such a solemn occasion, there was absolutely no need for the other party to "smash" the place!
It all seemed a little weird.

The small island is a temporary addition, and the host has no information at all, and it is impossible for him to ask the richest man to give an introduction to the island, so the host asked for quotations several times according to the fixed routine, but there was no one from the audience. People responded.

Just when the host was about to announce that the last item was unsold and ended the farce in an imperfect way, the seated Professor X spoke,

"One hundred million dollars, I will take this small island."

Wow!

There were countless exclamations in the venue, and half of the people present opened their mouths wide, looking at the little-known Professor X in disbelief.

They are eager to know the information of this handsome old man...

And Jack and Tony looked at each other, and there was a lot of information in this look, and they almost thought of Professor X's purpose at the same time!
This time, he came here for the island!

Mutants are a troubled group... Maybe some people will envy the X-Men and the new X-Men, and think their abilities are very cool!
But whether it is the X-Men or the new X-Men, they are only a very small number of mutants.

The vast majority of mutants will not have such powerful superpowers, but more useless abilities and mutant appearances.

Even Cyclops and Rakshasa, who have powerful superpowers, have various restrictions.

For example, Cyclops must wear special glasses all the time, because his rays are not under his control at all, and Rakshasa can't have intimate contact with anyone, otherwise she will suck the other party dry.

Therefore, the vast majority of mutants will be rejected by normal human groups, and they also hate their abilities very much, and even describe this ability as a gift from demons.

Even with the help of the mutant support club, there are still many mutants who can't return to their normal lives, and they can only report to the support club to keep warm.

If you want to understand this, it is easy to guess the purpose of the professor buying the island...

He wants to establish a country completely composed of mutants!

Since humans don't like mutants, mutants should simply form a pure country...

Here's a way!
But it is even more of a crisis!
Will the United States watch mutants establish a nation?The answer is no!

The reason is simple... fear.

Jack can already see the bloodbath ahead.

But at this moment, Jack and Tony can't stop it from happening right before their eyes.

Professor X did not overly stimulate the two of them. After buying the island, he and Magneto left in a hurry...

This was the first event organized by the new mayor of New York after taking office. This was originally news. Although media reporters were not allowed to enter the venue, the reporters had long been waiting outside the gate of the Four Seasons Hotel, preparing to complete the report as a matter of routine!

And the news that the mysterious old man spent a huge sum of [-] million US dollars to buy an unknown island from the richest man soon spread outside the door...

The media reporters guarding the door went "crazy". The reporters who were sent to report the auction were all fringe figures in the TV station, but they didn't expect the news from the sky to catch a "big fish"!
So they blocked the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel, not letting any rich and famous people go, hoping to get more exclusive news.

At the same time, Jack and Tony have come to the US team's home in Brooklyn through the portal...

On the day of the Great War in New York, the US team first fought for the Winter Soldier and the X-Men, and then quickly flew back to New York to participate in the battle. The lack of condition resulted in minor injuries during the battle.
Falcon also has the same ending as the US team;
In fact, Falcon is more seriously injured than Captain America. After all, Captain America is a super soldier who has been injected with serum. His muscle density, bones, and resilience are stronger than ordinary people, while Falcon is just an elite soldier.

So after the battle in New York, the main task of the US team and the Falcon was to recuperate in the apartment in Brooklyn.

The US team on crutches saw some clues from the faces of Jack and Tony. He welcomed the two into the living room, and asked straight to the point:
"What happened?"

Tony took out the mind shielding device and wanted to activate it, but Jack stopped him, the former is unknown so...

Jack didn't explain too much, and went straight to the point:

"The professor came back to life. Just now he bought a small island. Tony and I speculate that he wants to establish a mutant country on the small island."

Although the US team has never met the professor, he has heard of his name. After all, he just had a fight with the X-Men over the death of the professor!
With Captain America's character, he will have an understanding of Professor X before and after the event.

So after hearing that the professor was resurrected, the US team was shocked at first, and then he was relieved that everyone was alive, and the responsibility of the Winter Soldier is naturally lighter... Anyway, this is a good thing!
It's just that the US team doesn't understand why Jack and Tony have such expressions now...

Ask if you don’t understand, and the US team asked, “Is there any problem with this?”

Tony answered, "Come on, Captain, he wants to build a country!"

The US team was still puzzled: "Although it sounds like a very shocking thing, it should belong to the political category. It is an issue that the White House and the authorities should care about. What does it have to do with us?"

Whether it was 70 years ago or today, the US team has always been reluctant to get involved in political matters. If the professor builds a country in a normal way, it really has nothing to do with the US team and the Justice League.

So the US team's reaction now is normal.

And Jack also discovered that he and Tony had entered into a misunderstanding... The US team did not know the professor, and his knowledge of the professor was either from the dictation of others, or from the professor's own writings.

But before the professor was assassinated by the Winter Soldier, the professor was a really good man!

Therefore, the information about the professor received by the US team after waking up is all positive!

He doesn't even know what kind of person the professor is today...

Wanting to understand this, Jack could only spend a lot of time explaining the matter to the US team from beginning to end.
