Darkness Rises

Chapter 196 Discussion with Phoenix Girl

"Qin, thank you very much for keeping your promise and coming to my school to become the principal. Our children need you and need you to teach them how to face the world.

But the help I can provide is very little. I can only give them a place to stay, so that these poor children will not be displaced and live in humiliation.

But their future needs to be guided by a compassionate and knowledgeable wise man like you. "

Aiwen flattered Jean Gray just by opening his mouth. Who would let the damn system come up with some shit missions that combine yin and yang.

But to be honest, this task is not the real reason why Ivan is so enthusiastic about this woman with the power of the phoenix.

After all, there is no specified time for that task, and there is no clear punishment, so Ivan can completely ignore it.

But to be honest, the situation that this mutant school is facing now is not friendly.

After the so-called "Red Dragon Doomsday" ended, the antipathy against mutants in the entire American society had risen to a new level. In just a few days, there were many vicious cases against mutants.

And this new mutant school started under such circumstances.

Although in the city of New York, Ivan's power can be said to be crushing, no matter whether it is the government level or the underworld forces, no one can stab him in front of him.

But if it is placed in the whole of the United States, he is not without enemies, and there is an enemy who has been fully publicized and commended by the President of the United States.

If the other party hypes up the issue, then the school will surely fall into a passive position.

So at this time, if Professor X's power can be brought in as a buffer, Jean Gray, who is relatively well-known in the United States and has a positive image, can face criticism directly.

Wouldn't that be a better option?
But hearing Aiwen's praise, Qin Gree's expression was a little serious, she stopped slowly, looked at the young boy in front of her who she thought was a compatriot seriously and said: "Aiwen, you don't need to belittle yourself like this of.

What they need most is not me, the so-called wise man you say, on the contrary, what they need most is you, who can give them wings to protect them from the wind and rain.

You allow these poor children to be sheltered in a harsh environment like weak birds with mothers.

You're the one who's helping them most directly, and I'm just adding to the house you've built for them. "

Hearing Jean Gray's remarks that he didn't take credit for himself at all, Aiwen couldn't say anything, he could only think that the other party was high-spirited enough.

But Ai Wen doesn't intend to continue to compliment each other anymore, after all, the two are really unfamiliar, so what will happen in the future is a matter for the future.

He only intends to hand over this mutant school to the other party, and it is enough for her to help manage these little guys who are used to causing trouble.

But at this moment, Jean Gray did not intend to end the conversation between the two, but continued to say seriously: "Aiwen, please continue to listen to me, I want you to be more clear about our mutants. the exact circumstances faced at the time.”

Ai Wen was a little impatient in his heart, but on his face, he still showed a posture of listening attentively, motioning to Qin but saying it didn't matter.

"Aiwen, the situation we mutants are facing now is very bad. Originally, the United States was almost the country with the strictest policy on mutants in the world.

However, under our countless years of struggle and change, mutants can still basically maintain an environment in which they can continue to survive.

But since the end of this incident, the antagonism among the people has risen rapidly, and many humans have begun to hate mutants extremely.

As far as we know, there have been several vicious crimes against mutants in just this week. "

The more Jean Gray spoke, the more serious the expression on her face became, and even a worried expression gradually appeared on her face.

"Ivan, you may know a little bit about it. For many years, Congressman Kelly has been working hard to implement the Mutant Registration Act.

But with the efforts of Professor Charles and me, this bill has not been able to get enough votes in Congress to pass it.

But in the past few days, with the ferment of public opinion, Congressman Kelly took advantage of this situation to forcefully push the "Bill" to pass the barrier.

As far as we know, he should have received the commitment of several senators, and the "Mutant Registration Act" is likely to be passed in the near future.

At that time, all mutants in the United States will lose their due freedom, and will be marked with special labels at all times. "

When Qin Gray said this, she looked at the young mutants who were already on campus and started to play happily in the distance. She continued with a worried face:

"Ivan, do you know, as far as I know, Congressman Kelly is not only pushing for the passage of the Mutant Registration Act.

He also wants to take this opportunity to hold a "mutant summit" in the United States with the participation of leaders from all over the world to discuss the attitudes of governments of various countries in the face of mutants.

But the irony is that this is a summit about the future of mutants, but none of the mutants has received an invitation.

Aiwen, in this situation, I hope you can use your influence to work hard to win a glimmer of hope for the mutants in the future! "

Hearing Jean Grey's earnest request, what could Ivan do? He could only nod seriously: "Don't worry, Jean, I will try my best to help the mutants get through this difficult time."

But if she knows, Aiwen is likely to help Magneto, and then all the leaders of the countries who come to the United States to participate in the "Mutant Summit" will become mutants.

I don't know if Jean Gray will be crazy.

At this time, the figure of an adult mutant appeared in the campus. Looking at the villainous aura of the other party, Jean Gray frowned and said:

"Aiwen, I am very satisfied with the faculty you spent a lot of money on for the school. Those teachers and professors are all very well-known educators.

But I took a look at the curriculum, and you actually set up a 'combat class' in the school, and you even let Hedgehog, Nightcrawler, and Arc Light be teachers to teach young children.

I don't think there is much need for this course. If the outside world knows about it, it will make us even more afraid of us. "

But at this time, Aiwen shook his head very simply, and rejected Jean Gray's proposal.

He said very firmly: "Qin, this time I stick to my decision, this course is very necessary.

You also said just now how difficult and critical the mutants are now facing, we must not place our own safety on the pity of others.

We must let these young children have the power to protect themselves, instead of being a fool.

Otherwise, when they grow up and face this malicious society alone, they will definitely be wiped out by those bastards.

As for the hedgehog and the night girl, they have experienced a lot of actual combat on the street, and they have a lot of experience that can be passed on to young children.

Moreover, these guys have a relatively comprehensive understanding of human nature, and they can teach these innocent children by setting an example. "

"especially……"

Ai Wen paused, looked at Jean Gray and said: "Don't you also have X-Men, maybe my children can protect them one day, and even protect the entire mutant group!"

"Ugh!"

Seeing Ai Wen's firm attitude, Jean Gray knew that what she said would not work.

So she settled for the next best thing, and said with a pleading attitude: "Then change the 'combat class' to 'Ability Adaptation and Adjustment Class', it won't be so eye-catching."

"All right!"

Ivan finally agreed to Jean Gray's small request.
