Chapter 4746: X-Empire: Rebirth (Part 27)

~11 min read 2,074 words

The Avengers left in a hurry, while the mutants still needed to hold a follow-up apology meeting, the theme of which was to apologize to various forces that came to participate in the banquet. Although it was clear that they were framed, as the host, they still didn't entertain them well, letting the guests be frightened, and could only apologize one by one.

However, the guests who hadn't left yet didn't really care much about this. To put it bluntly, how can there be no risk in dealing with mutants? The fright was suffered, and the risk was borne, so leaving now is unwise. Staying, at least, can make the mutants owe a favor, which might be useful in the future.

There are actually quite a few such smart people, for example, the envoys of S. H. I. E. L. D. and Wakanda stayed, and even the people of Latvia didn't leave. Charles personally promised them that the mutants owed them a favor, and would definitely help with all their strength if there was anything in the future, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.

Don't look at the mutants' poor performance on the island, dealing with a volcanic eruption problem is a bit laborious. That's because this island itself has restrictions on mutants, Omega-level can be restricted to Beta-level, and the volcanic eruption was too sudden, so the processing effect was naturally not good. But if they leave this island, they are all planet-level powerhouses, and getting their favor can be considered an unexpected joy.

However, these people also left soon, because they knew that the mutants still had family affairs to deal with. This matter is more important than diplomacy. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there must be a mole on the island, and there are quite a few of them, and their execution is very strong, clearly well-trained.

"I won't say much more," Charles said after the others left. "Even if I wanted to push all the responsibility onto the Avengers, it would be impossible. But anyone with a brain would know that it couldn't have been them who did it personally, it could only be the mutant agents lurking on the island."

"What do you intend to do?" White Queen asked. She naturally came to such an important banquet, even though she knew she might not be able to join Krakoa again. But she is a businesswoman, and maintaining good relations with all parties is necessary, even if she doesn't join, there is no need to offend, so she naturally came.

"The first thing to do is not to blame each other. You should also be able to anticipate that from the moment Krakoa shouted the slogan 'Don't abandon any mutant', this situation would definitely appear. Because not all mutants are towards mutants, being mixed with sand is inevitable."

Apocalypse hugged his arms and nodded, saying: "That's right. Many mutants have lived in ordinary human society for too long, they value their social status in ordinary human society more, and they are reluctant to part with their ordinary human parents. If someone threatens or lures them, the possibility of turning back is very high."

Namor frowned deeply: "It's only possible that the mutants you recruited from the mainland have problems. Because those of us who came voluntarily, if we really wanted to find trouble with Krakoa, we wouldn't have come at all. I am a king, but there is no need to come here to suffer with you."

Many mutants also nodded. They were all those who took the initiative to come to Krakoa after Magneto changed his style of conduct. These people, although not to say that everyone has a big family, can at least stand on their own and have something to rely on, and are definitely not homeless weak mutants. They didn't come to Krakoa to seek shelter, but to throw themselves into the cause of the mutant utopia.

The possibility of such mutants doing this kind of thing is very small, because they abandoned their originally better lives and threw themselves into a new company that had just started and was full of difficulties, just to hope that the company could grow bigger and stronger and take them further. Now that the company hasn't gotten rid of the start-up stage, they are moving hands and feet, which has no benefit to these investors.

However, although that's what's said, no one dares to say it too dead. They think so themselves, but their subordinates might not, and if they were mixed with sand early on and then found out, if they speak too full, they might also be attacked.

"How about this," Apocalypse opened his mouth. "I can open my brain domain to you, you can conduct brainwave review on me. If there is any suspicious point, you can announce it and let everyone judge together, this should be able to clear the suspicion, right?"

As soon as he said this, the mutants were in an uproar again. To be honest, although Professor X always has a loving face, most mutants are respectful and afraid of him, and the key lies in his ability. It is still too scary to check everyone's thoughts and memories at any time.

But precisely because of this, Apocalypse's attitude was admired by everyone. This is too clear-conscienced, have you never done anything against your conscience since you lived from ancient times to the present?

"No matter what I have done, my starting point must be for the good of mutants," Apocalypse raised his head slightly and said. "Even if I have attacked many of you, it is only because I want to rule the mutants first, and then rule the whole world. I have a clear conscience."

He said this, and others couldn't say anything. If you say he is overestimating his capabilities, Apocalypse is the ancestor of mutants. In the era when he lived, mutants were also magnificent, but in modern times, mutants lived a miserable life. He felt that his descendants were not striving, and it was normal for him to want to work hard again.

"I can also accept the review," White Queen said. "Although I am also a psychic, I can only resist the professor's brainwaves when I am in a diamond body, and I can't at any other time. I will not use mutant abilities to resist, ensuring the review results are true and accurate."

"Then I can too," Polaris stood out and said. "I have nothing to hide. Moreover, I also believe in the professor's character, he will definitely only check this matter. If he really wants to see our privacy, he would have seen it long ago, no one has secrets in front of Professor X, right?"

Many young mutants also stood out, most of them were Professor X's students, and some were the younger generation of the Mutant Brotherhood. They also truly believed in Professor X's character, knowing that even if he saw something, he wouldn't talk about it. This is all trust accumulated over the years.

In the end, most mutants agreed to accept the review, and a small number of foreign mutant forces had doubts. But they actually didn't dare to say it, because it was easy to be treated as a mole if they stood out to oppose it now, so they finally agreed reluctantly.

"Then come to me voluntarily," Charles said. "I will wait in my office, whoever comes I will check. After being determined to have no suspicion, go back to rest first, and I will announce the results soon."

"Do we also need to accept the review?" The main universe Captain America asked. "It's not that we are unwilling, it's just that we have never accepted mind-reading, not sure if this will..."

"You don't need to," Charles said. "Iron Man and Doctor Strange have already left. And your characters are obvious to all. Of course, if you are willing, I will not refuse, it is better to be able to prove your innocence."

Although knowing that this might let a lot of information fall into the hands of the Central Universe, there was no better way. And, without Iron Man and Doctor Strange, the rest of these people were relatively gentle, feeling that it was good to be able to prove their innocence.

"What about us?" Ma Te asked.

"Iron Man can be exempted from inspection," Charles said. "His contribution to this matter is obvious to all, and his state is not good, so let's go back to rest first."

No mutants had any objections, because Polaris had already told them the whole process of repairing the engine, and it was indeed the Iron Man of the Central Universe who saved the crisis. If he were the mastermind, there would be no need to do so, and it was normal for him to be exempted from inspection.

Others had no objections, anyway, Charles was one of their own, and he wouldn't talk nonsense if he saw anything. However, because the mutants checked first, they still went back to rest first.

Stark had long been sent back to sleep, and the other few sat on the sofa and let out a long breath. Strange couldn't help but complain: "What is Charles doing?"

"You also saw it," Ma Te said. "I thought I was the only one who thought so."

"What did you see?" Seeing Natasha asked.

"This matter was self-directed and self-acted by Charles," Shiler answered her. "There is no mastermind at all, that engine was broken by him."

"I thought it was you," Seeing Natasha said bluntly. "It looks a bit like your style. Although the volcanic eruption is a bit small-scale, I thought you were holding back a bit for Charles's sake."

"Although I saw it from the beginning, it was indeed not me," Shiler shook his head and said. "I also reminded you, always bringing the topic in this direction, but you all didn't seem to see it."

"I had a premonition," Ma Te said. "The matter of soaking in hot springs is quite strange. Still the same sentence, facing various sanctions and pressures from all sides, the mutants chose to build a hot spring bathhouse first, this is obviously abnormal."

"I am because I feel this is Charles's means," Strange said. "Doing things in the Andromeda Galaxy himself, and then pushing everything to the three major empires, the three major empires have been pitted by him like this many times."

"So that's how it is," Steve nodded and said. "Although it looks like the mutants have lost a lot on the surface, they have actually gained more."

"What did they gain?" Bucky asked. "What I can see is probably only the guilt of the local Avengers, what else?"

"Of course, it is being able to openly catch moles," Shiler proposed. "Without this excuse, suddenly saying that brainwave review is to be conducted, no one will agree. But after such a big thing happened, everyone is anxious to prove their innocence, then the review is logical, which can quickly clear the moles of Krakoa."

"But they also offended many ambassadors of countries at the same time."

"Didn't the important ones not leave?" Steve drank some water, then put down the cup and said. "A bunch of wine and meat friends are not as good as a few intimate friends, this truth makes sense in any era."

"That's right. As long as mutants still have value, their allies will not give up. The more miserable Krakoa is, the greater the aid from allied countries will be. This incident is a reasonable reason for them to ask for aid, and also for allied countries to provide humanitarian aid without violating international treaties."

"And, the guilt of the Avengers is also the key, at least it can pry Stark Industries and the Avengers themselves to go against Washington that issued the sanctions. With Iron Man's temper, he won't stop until the sanctions are lifted."

"There are allies in the international community who stand up to help, and the sanctions will be severely sanctioned by the Avengers, and Krakoa's current diplomatic predicament can be broken soon. And clearing the moles can make people certified by Charles trust each other and be more united, stabilizing the internal situation."

Shiler paused and said: "With this move, Krakoa's situation of being besieged internally and externally will not last long." ===== CHAPTER 4747 =====
