As teachers at the school, they knew about the existence of the brainwave machine, and if they really wanted to destroy humanity, only Charles could do it.
Logan looked at Charles: "But why did Eric hide his identity and become Magneto?"
Charles gave a wry smile.
"During the Hellfire era, Erik joined Hellfire as Magneto with the aim of becoming their leader, unifying Hellfire, and curbing mutant activities on Hellfire's side."
"After the Black Queen of Hellfire died, he founded the Brotherhood."
"As you've seen, since the Brotherhood was founded, its methods of operation have changed significantly. It rarely harms ordinary people anymore; they only help abused mutants."
"He became Magneto to stop mutants who hate humans."
"In addition, he joined Hellfire to ensure the smooth establishment of the school."
Ororo asked, puzzled, "What does this have to do with building a school?"
Emma explained softly, "Charles wants to establish a school, but in many people's eyes, an existing school would be a threat, and the Brotherhood is seen as an enemy..."
"Would they use X School as a means to fight the Fraternity, thereby ensuring the school's continued existence?"
Oloro suddenly realized.
Charles nodded. "That's right, exactly."
The two brothers, one on the right and one on the wrong, sacrificed far more than imagined for the future of mutants and for the integration and coexistence of mutants and humans, especially Eric...
He became Magneto, which caused a lot of trouble.
But now, with the release of this message, all their efforts have been in vain.
Thinking about this, the expressions of the people gathered together became complicated.
Joy, sorrow, heartache...
"Snapped!"
Remy LeBron and Logan suddenly clapped their hands together.
Seeing everyone's gaze, Remy LeBron said with a straight face, "We've insulted Magneto many times already, this slap is our apology."
Upon hearing this, the other X-Men all looked at their palms...
Chapter 1208 Positioning
Future technology.
Eric's office.
At that moment, he was also following up on a phone call from Nick Fury.
Nick Fury brought him more comprehensive information from the White House than the Avengers had given Charles; it was almost as if he had witnessed the White House meeting firsthand.
The situation was more severe than he had imagined.
When he saw that the White House was ready, his first reaction was to go to XX school.
All the children were there.
If those bastards really go so far as to attack the school...
Eric's eyes turned cold.
He decisively pulled the safe, the safe opened, and the helmet flew out and landed on his head.
Just as he was about to fly out of his office, the door suddenly swung open, and the mutants from Future Tech rushed in.
Eric stared in disbelief and addressed the crowd: "Are you here to interrogate me?"
"what!"
Saber-toothed Tiger Victor laughed loudly and sneered at Eric, "So your real name is Eric."
When the Brotherhood confronts them, Erik always refers to himself as Magneto and never says his real name.
Eric clasped his hands together: "So what? What are you planning to do?"
The saber-toothed tiger let out a cold laugh, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in its eyes: "No matter what plans you and your brother had, just look at you now and you'll know you've failed."
Eric nodded, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
"What do we do next?" Sabretooth looked at the others and laughed. "In their eyes, we were terrorists all along, and now we're just back to where we were! Whether to fight or not, and how to fight! That's up to you!"
These words were echoed by other mutants.
A flicker of emotion crossed Eric's eyes as he saw these people.
Some of them were old-timers who had followed him since Hellfire, some had joined the Brotherhood, and some had joined when Future Tech was founded. But now, these people had all decided to support him and believe in him.
Eric was touched, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Then let's go to X School! If they offer a place, we'll definitely choose X School."
School X has a large number of children, and with the children included, the X-Men simply cannot fight at full strength.
Moreover, Charles poses a greater threat; if they were to take action, they would eliminate Charles first.
After saying this, Eric abandoned his initial intention to rush away, nodded to the people gathered together, and led them down the stairs.
...
On the other side is Xu Fu's home.
Clark sat in the living room, tossing his phone aside.
His face was calm, a calmness that was frightening.
He is kind, but if anyone tries to harm his family, he...
Clark clenched his fist, stood up, and walked towards the door.
When he opened the door and saw a group of people outside, his legs twitched violently.
His neighbors.
Peggy Carter, Maria, Jones, and the Avengers.
Clark calmly replied, "Are you going to stop me?"
Peggy Carter and Maria looked at each other and shook their heads.
“Clark, you’re a good kid.” Peggy Carter looked exhausted and pressed her lips tightly together. “None of us wanted to see this situation.”
"I see."
Clark smiled.
"I believe you can do the right thing."
Maria hugged Clark.
Bose looked at Clark, said nothing, but made a reassuring gesture to Clark.
Clark nodded to the three men, then looked back at the Avengers.
Tony whispered, "I'll go with you."
Clark rubbed Tony's shoulder and said, "Forget it, you'd be in big trouble then."
Like superheroes, they have their own promises, their own beliefs, and they do the right thing.
But now, if they decide to help Charles, Eric, and others, even if that decision is correct, many people will see them as traitors to humanity and burden them with heavy infamy.
This is something Clark doesn't want to see.
"how about you?"
Steve looked at Clark calmly.
Clark smiled wisely: "I'm their family, of course I have to go, and besides, I don't care what others think of me."
"So what do you think? Do I care what others think of me?"
Steve asked calmly again.
"Your current situation is not that you don't care what the world thinks of you, but that you don't care what the world thinks of you."
Clark sighed and said to them, "Now it's a matter of position."
"My position is correct."
Steve's voice remained firm.
Clark stared intently into Steve's eyes and said slowly, "Even if choosing the right side makes you a wanted criminal in this country, a traitor in the eyes of humanity?"
The next second, before Steve could answer, Clark took to the air and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
He already knew the answer.
"Wait for me!"
Thor let out a deep rumble and began to swing his hammer.
After watching Clark and Thor disappear, everyone probably looked away, but then turned their attention back to Steve.
"Captain, give the order."
