After walking through the long alley and following in the footsteps of Mystique, Mariko finally met this famous legendary mutant, Eric Lensherr, known as Magneto.

The silver hair shows the old man's age, and the thin body is decorated with a broad monk. Apart from the straight spine and sharp eyes, it is difficult to find that this is a dangerous person who has been jointly wanted by hundreds of countries around the world.

"Welcome as a guest, brave girl," she gently closed the book in her hand. The sharp-eyed Mariko could even see the title of the book On Liberty, a book written by the British philosopher J.S. Mill in the 19th century.

Noticing the girl's eyes, it was clear that she had not yet separated from the artistic conception of the book. Magneto couldn't help but raise the book in his hand and asked: "Have you read this book?"

Having received an elite education since childhood, Mariko is by no means a simple flashy rich second generation. Realizing that she might win Magneto's favor, the wise woman nodded without hesitation: "I've seen it."

"It's very rare." Surrounded by fierce warriors, it was difficult for Eric to discuss his ideals with a group of similar people whose brains were all about muscles. He sighed slightly: "A good environment is more nurturing, so what do you think about freedom?" What is the definition?”

Growing up in a harsh environment, Mariko never had a space of her own despite her noble status. After thinking about it, I finally expressed my understanding of freedom: "Survival, freedom, and ideals."

"Hahaha, what a life and freedom," Eric Land Shelby, who has been fighting for the survival of mutants all his life, suddenly felt better when he suddenly heard a 20-year-old girl speak out her thoughts that she had accumulated over the past decades. , motioning for the other person to sit down casually, and said: "Yes, tell me about life, freedom and ideals, haha."

"Survival, as the name suggests, is alive. Living is alive, and living carelessly and casually is also alive."

"Freedom satisfies the need for survival and no longer fights precariously for survival. Freedom is not only the freedom of the body, but also the freedom of the soul."

"What a word, freedom of the soul," he said in admiration of Mariko's words. Is Magneto free? He hasn't experienced the battle at the Statue of Liberty in New York yet. Magneto is still traveling freely around the world, gathering the persecuted mutants, in order to Their rights do not hesitate to contend with various forces.

But Eric Lensheer was really tired, and mental fatigue was not as easy to recover from as physical fatigue. Eric's childhood experience cast a heavy shadow. He no longer believed that freedom relied on the sympathy and mercy of others, and advocated relying on his own strength to create a living space for the mutant race.

After so many years of struggle, his opinions were not recognized by his only old friend, and various overt and covert struggles arose, which really made Magneto physically and mentally exhausted.

"I heard from you that in the future, I will still be fighting for my freedom." Looking at Mariko sitting upright on an old-fashioned chair like a lily with a complicated expression, Magneto was really moved. Only a family with a profound foundation can teach such an extraordinary person, and on my side, haha.

"I really want to hear you talk about the definition of ideal." He slowly stood up, his tall and straight body with a proud attitude, and his fierce momentum suddenly spread around: "But I am really worried that after listening to your explanation, I will It’s a blow to my persistence. So what if I don’t have freedom? I’m still me and I just have a clear conscience.”

Trying hard to maintain a calm attitude, Mariko still couldn't hide the endless shock in her heart.

He accidentally picked up Max Dillon who had lost his energy, but found out that he was the mutant who caused the endless killings in Times Square. Relying on his own profound cultivation and the secret strength of Yashida in New York behind him, he helped the Electro to recover. The sight of lightning flashing at that moment was still not as powerful as Magneto's hidden side, which shows how powerful the leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants is.

"Tell me, what's the business?" Magneto, who slowly walked into Mariko's side, was obviously very satisfied with the other party's expression. Although the other party was several rounds younger than him, negotiation is negotiation, and he can use all means to gain the upper hand. This is Wan Magneto still understands.

Although she understands that there is no enmity between the two parties, and her performance has obviously won Magneto's considerable favor, at this moment she is facing a powerful existence that stands on the opposite side of ordinary human beings. Mariko still feels tremendous pressure: "I hope you can Kill someone for us.”

"High-ranking government officials, businessmen, or leaders of a certain armed force" have firmly returned to their positions. Someone who can restrain the huge Yashida Industries will obviously arouse Magneto's interest, but negotiation methods still need to be mastered: "Now The mutant form is not very good."

"Even the Brotherhood doesn't want to cause big trouble before the World Conference," he shook his head. Faced with outsiders, Eric naturally would not tell his true thoughts and refused, just to increase his bargaining chip.

"5 million U.S. dollars." There is a huge gap in the funds needed to accommodate the many mutants who have gathered together. He stood up and took out a note with a secret account number and password, along with a photo of a young Chinese: "Su Zheng, a special security consultant from Osborn Industries, who once defeated Electro, and is very powerful."

He also tried every means to form a huge business group for financing and money laundering, but he was hampered by his own obvious notoriety. The Brotherhood of Mutants' current source of funding is only the black industry, but it is also subject to strict monitoring by various countries.

"The Brotherhood is not a killer organization, and it does not accept employment." Although the tone was calm, the rejection was clearly expressed.

In the past few days, Osborne Industries has been the headline of Internet searches. Whether it is eliminating pollution and converting energy, or providing the most reliable energy for the aerospace industry, the artificial sun will become a catalyst to change the entire human society, and the display of longevity medicine , and attracted the attention of the real top figures in the pyramid, including Magneto. Who does not value their own life, and who does not want to have a longer lifespan. The new medicine displayed by Osborn also attracted the attention of Eric Lensherr. He was salivating, but he didn't dare to make any strong move.

"Yashida has a strong influence in the island country." To show his sincerity, Yashida has already transferred most of the group's funds to Osborne's account. At this time, raising US$5 million is the limit, but money cannot impress Magneto's determination. , does not mean that Mariko cannot come up with more attractive chips. Her cherry-like lips opened and closed slightly, but the words she spoke made Magneto instantly moved.

"What about the negative votes from my country?"
