Chapter 512 The appetizer before the war
Lei Rui followed Professor Charles into the castle.

The outside of the castle looks dilapidated, eroded by years and wind and rain.However, the inside of the castle is well maintained, with both the sense of order of the school and the warmth of home.

Professor Charles' office is in the backyard of the castle. It is a separate area, and you can take a wheelchair directly to the grass behind the castle.

Mystique, Beast Hank, Cyclops, and Storm are the key members of this X academy, both the main force in the battle and the teacher of the academy.They also followed Professor Charles' gesture.

Obviously, Captain Lei Ting came here at this time, he definitely didn't come to make friends with them, but he must have something important to do.

After the battle just now, plus Lei Rui's hand, the magic of Thor's Hammer, and Lei Rui's frank good friend Wolverine Logan is also a mutant, he won the favor of everyone present, whether it is Beast Hank and others, who are still young students of X Academy, all have a good impression of him.

Lei Rui did not say a word, but walked around in front of Professor Charles's book collection.

"Professor, you seem to have a lot of experience in the study of the X gene." Lei Rui finally came over and said.

"I hope to find out the reason for this genetic variation in humans!" Professor Charles replied, "However, the research has not made much progress. We haven't even located what the X gene is."

Lei Rui replied with a smile, "That's why it's called the X gene, right?"

"Yes! I don't even dare to draw conclusions about whether it is the cause of the genetic mutation." Professor Charles replied, he then looked at Lei Rui and asked, "Captain, you are here this time, will it be They came here for the study of the X gene."

Lei Rui nodded, his face darkened, "I came here for the death of Captain Rogers."

Beast Hank exchanged glances with several other people quickly, Professor Charles said: "I am also very saddened by the death of Captain Rogers. He wanted to quell the dispute between the two sides, but unfortunately..."

It is a pity that it is aimed at both sides. The death of Captain Rogers is the last mediation and effort. The next thing has become a reality. The army of the American-Canada Alliance began to push forward vigorously to encircle and suppress the area where the mutant brothers gathered. Although Professor Charles and others They don't know the detailed progress, but in their view, the casualties on both sides must be extremely heavy.

This is a complete tragedy, and it is a human tragedy.

Lei Rui sighed softly, knowing what they were thinking, and explained: "The facts are more cruel than you think. The more than ten thousand radical mutants gathered by the Brotherhood have been defeated by the army, with heavy casualties. But the radical mutants The damage caused by the army was not that great, and the casualty ratio was about 10:1."

"How is it possible?!" Everyone was completely unbelievable, and Hank the Beast yelled, his eyes widened.

The US-Canada Alliance has not announced the results of this battle to the public, and Lei Rui only learned of these top-secret military information through special channels.This ten to one casualty ratio is actually more in line with Lei Rui's prediction, and in Tony Stark's view, the army's casualty ratio should be lower.

But for mutants like Hank the Beast, this result completely overturned their cognition.

Although they possess powerful mutation abilities, they are only civilians after all and have a serious lack of intuitive and objective understanding of the lethality of the established military, especially the lethality of modern systematic and three-dimensional weapons and equipment.

In other words, they overestimated the mutation ability of mutants and underestimated the lethality of the army.

When mutants face ordinary people who are also civilians, it is not surprising that one person can defeat a group of them. However, when facing an established army, soldiers armed to the teeth, and the support of long-range firepower from the sky and the ground, these rely on Mutants with mutant abilities are actually just unarmed civilians!

What's more, among the more than ten thousand mutants gathered by the Brotherhood, there are not many mutants with powerful lethality. Most of them just have mutant ability, which is not much stronger than ordinary people.

Looking at their shocked expressions, Lei Rui thought it would be better to tell them the truth, and explained: "I know you find this result unbelievable, but it is such a result. In fact, in this place where you are, If you don't care about your life and death, you won't even be able to see the enemy's face, and you will be bombarded by artillery fire, and more than half of you will be killed or injured."

Beast Hank and the others fell silent, pursing their lips tightly, with shock in their eyes.

Professor Charles looked at Lei Rui and asked, "So, you are here to find Magneto King Eric?"

His face still looks so calm, but Lei Rui can read deep sadness and pity from his eyes.

Lei Rui shook his head and replied: "I'm here to find you, Professor. On the one hand, I want to talk to you. On the other hand, I hope to find Magneto King Eric through you and ask Captain Rogers's What happened to death, who killed Captain Rogers!"

"Sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, Captain," replied Professor Charles, "I've been trying to communicate with Eric telepathically, but he wears a special helmet and refuses to talk, and even I can't sense him. existence, let alone his exact location.”

"Okay then," Lei Rui nodded and replied, he didn't seem too disappointed, "I'll find a way to find him myself. The reason I want to talk to you is because you are good to humans and mutants , Ordinary people, all treat them equally, and believe that the two sides can live in peace. And I also think that when human beings and the world are facing an existential crisis, you should stand up bravely, do your best to fight, and try to save The world and humanity. Am I right, Professor Charles."

Professor Charles looked at Lei Rui, frowned slightly, and asked, "You are right, Captain, but I don't understand why you said that."

"Because we are now in such a critical moment," Lei Rui replied frankly, "the legislation and implementation of the "Registration Act", the disputes between mutants and ordinary people, and the military's intervention in the war against the mutant brotherhood , all of these are just a small part of this crisis. You can understand that this is just an appetizer before the main meal. The real enemy is still hidden in the dark and has not shown their fangs. But I I can already hear the sound of their sharpening their knives and feel their agitation. In fact, this war that concerns the life and death of this world and human beings has already begun. As soon as I know your news, I rushed over immediately, just hoping Convince you to join us in our war against the real enemy."

Even Professor Charles was stunned, and Lei Rui continued: "If I guess right, Magneto King Eric, whether he realizes it or not, he has already stood on the side of the enemy. "
