Marvel Administrative Officer

Chapter 34 Aegis
New York Airport.

A kind middle-aged man wearing sunglasses and a gray suit just walked out of the station.

His name is Phil Coulson.

It's not the first time for Coulson to come to New York, but the memory of New York is not good. Every time the city wants to keep Coulson's life.

"Okay, now let me see who should I visit first?"

Coulson took out a mobile phone with a sense of technology far beyond this era, and pushed it horizontally. The screen of the mobile phone was pushed away, and there were operation keys similar to a computer keyboard.

A mobile phone similar to a computer.

In fact, its performance is indeed comparable to ordinary home computers.

A large paragraph of text flashed quickly on the screen of the phone, which is the content of Coulson's mission this time.

"Well, Fury never assigns me some simple tasks. To recruit mutants in this time period, does he really think this is an achievable task?"

Coulson smiled wryly.

Phil Coulson is a member of a secret service organization with a very long name. He is the confidant of the current director and the backbone of the organization.

This secret service organization with a long name is the predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D., and there is no sign of changing their name yet.

To be honest, Coulson can't remember the name of his agency most of the time, but it doesn't matter, most of the time, he will call himself an FBI agent, after all, his bureau does not exist in the official sequence.

Coulson is a man with super mobility. After confirming the mission, he immediately stopped a taxi and headed to New Jersey.

The matter of the professor's relocation may be hidden from most official agencies, such as the FBI, such as NYPD, but there is no way to hide it from that bureau.

……

New Jersey, New X Academy.

The professor and Qin had a disagreement. Qin still believed that the vicinity of New York was already very unsafe and should retreat to a more remote place as soon as possible, but the professor stubbornly believed that if the X Academy escaped, it would only make the situation of the mutant group more difficult.

Mutants need a representative who speaks for the group as a whole.

"Professor, I respect you just like my father. But have you read today's Washington Times?" Qin asked anxiously.

The professor still has that elegant appearance, his speaking rhythm is not slow or urgent,
"You mean some opinions on the front page about the mutant issue? That's just the news media exaggerating and grandstanding."

"No, professor, they are serious. They are planning to put us in prison. If we don't leave, we will have nothing to do here."

The professor waved his hand to signal Qin not to worry, but he still said slowly,
"Jean, the American government will not make such a decision, I assure you of that."

"You can't put all your hopes on human beings. We still have 38 mutant children here. If the army launches a surprise attack on us, we will be powerless to fight back."

Jean tries to impress the professor with the mutant children to change his mind.

It's just that she's doomed.

"No one can launch a raid on Academy X while I'm watching."

This is the pride of Professor X, an alpha-level mutant.

His ability is too incomprehensible, it can even be said to be cheating.

In fact, as long as human beings understand the huge destructive power of the professor, they will not go crazy to provoke the professor.

But some humans are always brave enough to push the limits.

In the office, when no one could convince anyone, both the professor and Qin fell into silence.

After a while, the professor seemed to feel something and said to Qin,
"Let's go to the gate, there are guests coming."

……

The visitor outside the gate was Coulson who was showing some signs of baldness.

His mission on this trip was to convince X Academy to join the Homeland Strategic Defense Offensive and Logistic Support Agency. Well, Coulson had to admit that he had just looked through the materials in the taxi before finally remembering the name of his organization.

When Coulson was about to tidy up his clothes, the door for new X students had already opened, and Jean pushed the professor out.

"Welcome, Agent Coulson."

The professor greeted me warmly.

Coulson was stunned for a moment, he was sure he hadn't introduced himself.

"You knew I was coming, and you knew who I was?"

"Now is a special period. I must ensure the safety of the students, so I have implemented mind monitoring for the entire area."

Coulson is a very personable agent with rich experience. Although he doesn't understand the professor's words very well, he still said politely,

"Professor Charles, I don't think this is a place for conversation."

"I was rude, come in with me, you are the second member of an official organization to set foot here." The professor laughed.

Coulson was a little puzzled. In the current period of time, the Homeland Strategic Defense Offensive and Logistics Support Agency has not yet become the behemoth that it will be in the future, and the mutant community is not well-known.

Many Americans even think that mutants are just a weird urban legend.

So Director Fury gave Coulson an order to recruit the X-Men.

There is nothing left.

Being able to find Professor X's real name, Coulson can be regarded as experienced and cautious, but he knows nothing about the professor's mutant ability.

Following the professor, Coulson came to an office full of questions.

Qin gracefully brought Coulson a cup of coffee.

"Agent Coulson, I would like to speak directly with Commissioner Fury."

"You know our chief?"

Coulson almost burned his mouth.

Fury is not a movie star, he is the king of secret agents. In this world, there will never be more than 100 people who know of Fury's existence.

The professor smiled, "S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to recruit me but doesn't know my abilities. It's ridiculous. Allow me to introduce myself."

"I am Charles Xavier, the dean of Xavier Academy for Gifted Boys. I am also an alpha-level mutant. My mutant ability is telepathy and mind control."

The professor didn't bother to lie, so he naturally told Coulson directly about his abilities.

Coulson was surprised, but he didn't show it. The agent's self-cultivation didn't allow him to show his emotions, but his inner thoughts were all read by Professor **.

"You don't believe me? Actually, I'd be happy to talk to you, but it's obvious that your mission is just to recruit, but Fury didn't give you the relevant conditions. This will make S.H.I.E.L.D. very dishonest."

Well, Coulson served.

The old man in front of him can really read his own thoughts easily, so what's the point of negotiating and soliciting?
But the work must go on.

It is impossible for Coulson to transfer the responsibility to his own leader just because of a sentence or two from the professor.

He deliberated and slowly opened his mouth to persuade,

"Professor Charles, your ability is very special. If all the mutants in Academy X have your magical ability, we are willing to grant you asylum. You understand that the current public opinion is very unfavorable to you."

Facing the professor, Coulson was under a lot of psychological pressure.

But he obviously underestimated the professor's mind, what he wants is by no means the protection of X Academy.

Sure enough, the professor asked disappointedly,

"What if I want S.H.I.E.L.D. to protect and save all mutants?"

Coulson, who knew that lying was meaningless, replied in a difficult way, "I'm afraid this is beyond our limit."

Is S.H.I.E.L.D. really over the limit?
The professor has his own judgment, but Coulson has no corresponding authority.

　(Seeking collection, asking for recommendation)

　　Let me explain here, in fact, SHIELD should not have changed its name during this time period, but in order not to cause reading difficulties, except for the necessary dialogue that will say the National Land Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Bureau, the rest will be replaced by SHIELD.
