MTL - American Comic: Create An Oasis at the Beginning, and the Rise of Mutants-Chapter 55
At the same time, there is a strong call for the establishment of a Mutant Affairs Bureau to specialize in the management of mutant affairs!
Let the X-Men truly become an official organization with law enforcement powers!
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
The identity of the former senior official of the CIA makes Maura Maktag's speech extremely authoritative, because she is the only one who considers it from the standpoint of the public, and she is also an old man in her seventies!
Could it be that such a retired person stood up to fight for his full strength?
No!
She is speaking out for the safety of the people!
As a result, the people who were in a state of extreme anger, seemed to have found their backbone suddenly, and they all woke up like a dream, and joined the team responding to Mora Mactag without the slightest hesitation.
Countless lawsuits were handed over to the courts.
"Public trial of General Ross! Public trial of William Stryker!"
"Establish Mutant Affairs Bureau!"
"Make the X-Men an official organization!"
"The military can't protect us, let the X-Men come!"
"The White House must never shield the military!"
The great battle between the Abomination and the Hulk had such a bad impact that the entire contract was shrouded in a cloud of darkness. As Maura Mactag said, no one wants to see another monster one day and send him a punch Go west.
As a result, the entire contract seemed to be caught in a frenzy unprecedented in a century!
"Great gift crab special! Is this Mora Mactag crazy?! How could such a traitor appear in the CIA?!"
The top White House officials who got the news soon were all shocked and angry. Almost all the tables in the conference room were scattered by 500.
What made them even more incredible was that Catherine Bergert, the police superintendent of the 17th NYPD Precinct, even publicly supported Maura Mactag's proposal!
Immediately afterwards, the New York State Court accepted these lawsuits!
It was accepted by a female judge named Kate Mara (the woman who sent Tony the subpoena in Iron Man 2)!
"This is betrayal!"
"That police detective named Catherine, she was responsible for arresting William Stryker last time!"
"Isn't she a police detective? Why was she promoted?"
"She must be a hidden mutant just like this Kate Mara!"
"They must be arrested immediately!"
"Fuck!"
Angry cursing came and went.
However, some people in the crowd frowned: "I can assure you that Kate Mara is definitely not a mutant. Her resume is 100% correct. She turned out to be an executive officer of the court. She was recently promoted to a judge because of her excellent work." of!"
Some people also responded to the doubts about Catherine: "She broke the assassination of the president, and the whole world knows, so why not give her a promotion? Now that something like this has happened, even if she wants to be dismissed, she can't do it immediately. The key is to calm the impact of this incident!"
Noisy and noisy, the meeting room suddenly fell into silence.
Then, almost everyone cursed in unison.
"The military of dog days!"
"Ross in Dog Days!".
Chapter 73 Shocked! Hydra may become the biggest winner!
The officials in the conference room would never have imagined that at the same moment, General Scudder, the leader of the military... was also scolding General Ross.
"Ross that idiot, swearing to me that there's no problem with the operation, we'll have an army of hulks soon, only to fall into someone else's trap..."
In a secret meeting room, Admiral Scudder made no secret of his dissatisfaction: "No matter how the White House deals with him this time, the military has no objection!"
When the other three people in the meeting heard this, they all secretly rolled their eyes.
Admiral Scudder seems to have shifted the responsibility to Ross, but he pointed out the key point of this matter in one sentence—
Ross was tricked!
And it was mutants who designed this trap!
The other party didn't even hide their existence. First, they used the mutant channel of Daily X openly and aboveboard, and then, somehow, they invited Mora Mactag to speak for the mutant platform!
This is quite a serious problem!
The CIA, the police, even the court system... have all been infiltrated by mutants?
Is this worth it? !
"In the current situation, everyone is very clear that there is no point in dealing with General Ross!"
Vice President Rodriguez was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "The exposure of the X-Weapon program last time can also be said to be the revenge of the mutants on William Stryker. Lots of mutants…”
"But this time, they targeted General Ross and exposed the super soldier plan..."
"It's clear that it was premeditated!"
"Mutants obviously don't just want to change their image, they want more!"
He pointed out the crux of the problem sharply, and then said: "This incident is testing our bottom line. If we agree to establish the Mutant Affairs Bureau, they will definitely make progress step by step and get involved in the power that should not belong to them... "
It has to be said that those who can achieve this position are definitely not stupid people.
Last time, he didn't speak for William Stryker because the exposure of the X weapon project had no effect on him, and he could use the opportunity to suppress the power of the military.
That is an internal struggle.
But this time, what the mutant wanted obviously touched his bottom line!
The White House originally planned to set up a Department of Mutant Affairs to deal with mutant crimes, but it was a small agency under the CIA. To put it bluntly, it was just a display for people to see, far outside the core power level...
In contrast, the Bureau of Mutant Affairs is completely different!
Division, bureau... the difference between one word and the world!
How could the White House agree to allow mutants to form a department at the same level as the CIA, FBI, and S.H.I.E.L.D.?
And the kind with law enforcement powers? !
This is simply digging the foundations of the White House!
"You're right, Rodriguez..."
The attitude of President Matthew Ellis has also changed, with deep doubts appearing on his face: "The mutant group has obviously changed from before. They no longer rely on their superpowers, but use rules to seek their own interests. Interests…"
"This is not Professor X's style, nor is it possible for a jailbroken Magneto to do it..."
"Mutants, maybe there is a new leader!"
"And this person, we don't know anything about it!"
The complexions of Rodriguez and Admiral Scudder changed slightly.
The two looked at each other, and they both saw the strong fear in each other's eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the two said almost in unison: "If this is the case, we cannot compromise, and the Mutant Affairs Bureau must never be established!"
It has to be said that allowing the vice president and the military general to abandon all power struggles and stand on the same front is enough to show how effective Lynn's efforts during this period have been!
The threat level of mutants has already increased several levels in their hearts!
So is President Matthew Ellis!
But he did not agree, but sighed deeply: "But have you ever thought that what happened this time is different from the last time...'ˇ..."
Under the puzzled eyes of Rodriguez and Admiral Scudder, he said slowly:
"Last time, we faced the public opinion of ordinary people!"
"And this time, we are facing more than that!"
"There are many, many... our own people!"
As soon as this remark came out, the faces of Rodriguez and Admiral Scudder were so gloomy that water could drip out.
They instantly understood what the president meant.
The battle between the Hulk and the Abomination almost destroyed half of Broadway, and the number of casualties was too high to be counted in a short period of time...
This undoubtedly made the entire contract breaker feel a huge sense of insecurity!
And it's not just ordinary people who live in the twisting city!
There are also people from various state institutions!
From the ordinary staff, to the middle-level with some power, and even the high-ranking officials in the large conference room outside, how many people have great resentment against the out-of-control super soldier plan? !
How many people are grateful for the X-Men's efforts to turn the tide? !
"Let's not talk about the female judge named Kate Mara, let's talk about Catherine Bergert of the Seventeenth Bureau..."
The president's face was also not good-looking: "She is really just a small police officer. We can deal with her with a phone call, but you know, since she led the team to assist the X-Men and destroyed William Stryker base, does she have much prestige in the police circle?"
"There is also that Moura Mactag, she was the head of the CIA's operations department before she retired. Do you know how many CIA agents were trained by her? And how many of those agents have been in these years? Made it to management?"
"In these two departments alone, there are countless people who will support the proposal to establish the Mutant Affairs Bureau!"
Rodriguez and Admiral Scudder became more and more silent.
Only then did they realize that some people who were not considered important roles in their eyes could exert power far beyond their imagination at certain special moments!
They can ignore the public opinion of ordinary people.
But how could they ignore the huge noise within themselves?
If the waves were too rough, they could overturn them!
In the final analysis, this incident, the military has poked a hornet's nest!
And the mutants have the perfect timing for the swarm's sting!
"Then deal with Ross, publicly announce the end of the super soldier project, and calm public opinion!"
Admiral Scudder thought for a while, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes: "No matter what, the Mutant Affairs Bureau must not be established, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"
The president and vice president looked at each other, thinking about each other.
At this time, the last person in the secret meeting suddenly smiled slightly and interrupted the discussion: "It's just setting up a new department, why do you have to be like an enemy?"
As the voice spread, the eyes of the other three were immediately attracted.
Admiral Scudder's face was a bit ugly: "Pierce, what's your opinion?"
Alexander Pierce, Secretary of the World Security Council.
He is also the direct boss of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The World Security Council is composed of heads of state and does not participate in specific affairs. Therefore, his secretary has a considerable weight.
Being able to participate in a secret meeting of this level is evident.
"A brand new department is not so easy to set up. There is no budget, no manpower, no equipped weapons and equipment, no support from other departments...isn't it just an empty shell?"
Pierce said calmly: "Even if this so-called Mutant Affairs Department is at the same level as the CIA, FBI, or even SHIELD, it only has the power to deal with mutant crimes. This is different from the Mutant Affairs Department you originally planned to form." Secretary, what's the difference?"
"Even the mutants are subject to the jurisdiction of the White House!"
"Isn't that a good thing?"
His point of view is completely different from that of the other three: "Don't forget, recently, the FBI, CIA, and S.H.I.E.L.D. have not found the location of the X Academy. monitor…"
"But once the Mutant Affairs Bureau is established, they are equivalent to being actively exposed under our noses..."
"Wouldn't it be easier for us to deal with mutants in the future?"
The president, vice president, and Admiral Scudder were all startled.
Then the eyes lit up.
It has to be said that Pierce's words are very reasonable. In the final analysis, the establishment of the mutant affairs department or the affairs bureau is just a title.
Seems...not that important?
The three looked at each other, and the vice president still shook his head: "But once you start this, it's equivalent to acknowledging the right of mutants to participate in politics, just in case..."
