An Unscientific Marvel Scientist

something wrong! There is definitely a problem!

Wearing contact lenses and his head tightly bandaged, William Stryker was lost in thought as he walked out of a well-known business.

This is the fourth person he visited today. Like the previous few people, this big businessman who had vowed to support him has become ambiguous today. When Stryker asked him for investment, He started to push back and forth, talking about him from left to right.

When he visited the first businessman, Stryker thought it was because he was worried about money and was afraid that the investment would go to waste. However, four people in a row were in similar situations, and it was impossible not to attract his attention.

Someone is targeting me!

William Stryker didn't think that these people, like himself, would awaken the x gene overnight and become the mutants they hated. He just thought that because of public opinion, his enemies and those who were deceived by the mutants, The guy who started to sympathize with the mutants is secretly playing tricks and wins over his fancy collaborators.

Speaking of it, Stryker was unlucky. Although his collaborators became mutants, none of them changed in appearance. Only Stryker himself had a mutation.

Originally, Kraft thought that if he only targeted Stryker's collaborators like this, Stryker might notice it was wrong, but he didn't care that Stryker found out about it, anyway, he would soon To have a global evolution, it doesn't matter whether it will be discovered or not.

It can only be said that Stryker's luck is really bad, and he has encountered such a small probability.

And after doing this secretly, Kraft discovered that these people are not the same as Stryker. The reason why they oppose mutants and support Stryker's human experiments on mutants is basically because of profit. .

For example, some members of parliament rely on opposing mutants to gain votes, and some businessmen position their products as a way to fight against mutants. Naturally, they want to demean mutants in various ways.

A small number of people in the military are wary of the power of mutants. The idea is similar to that of S.H.I.E.L.D. and General Ross, and they want to hold this power in their own hands.

There are even many people who oppose mutants because they do not have superpowers and are envious and jealous.

So after they found out that they had become mutants, they didn't continue to fight against mutants like Stryker did, but quickly changed their positions, and some who were inconvenient to change their positions quickly began to leave room for themselves.

In this way, it is naturally impossible for these people to support Stryker's experiments to persecute mutants. What if their mutant identities are exposed one day?

Isn't the current public opinion environment that sympathizes with mutants very good?

Several members of the opposition even began to consider whether they should create an image that was touched by the exposed materials and opposed Stryker's support for mutants to attract votes.

William Stryker, who didn't understand all this, didn't give up yet, and continued to visit his former collaborators one by one. Unfortunately, the attitudes of these people were all the same, and some people even shut the door to Stryker. None of them could be seen.

"It's not right! It's absolutely not right!"

After visiting the last person, Stryker, who still found nothing, felt that this was not something that could be done simply by coercion and lure.

It is impossible to make so many people change their positions at the same time in such a short period of time.

unless……

They are brainwashed!

Stryker, who used to use this trick often before, thought of this first.

And he also clearly knows that there is a mutant who can indeed do this kind of large-scale brainwashing.

That is Charles Xavier, known as Professor X, the leader of the dove mutants, and the most powerful psychic known so far.

As for why Professor X broke through the bottom line and began to control human thoughts on a large scale, the main reason for Stryker was probably his exposed experimental base.

Normally, there was nothing wrong with Stryker's speculation, but what he didn't expect was that Professor X's heart of Mary was not much worse than his hatred for mutants.

With Professor X's character, he would rather brainwash mutants than ordinary people.

For ordinary people, the more mutants like Professor X, the better, but for mutants, he is the best teammate.

"Do you think this will stop me?"

Stryker showed a sneer. The exposure of Alkali Lake base taught him a lesson. Sometimes using public opinion can have unexpected results.

So Stryker anonymously contacted some media people who are famous for making up random things, and broke the news to them vaguely.

The main thing is to reveal to them the strength of Charles Xavier's ability and what he can do with the help of his brain wave enhancer.

Then I vaguely mentioned that the current public opinion is very abnormal, and there is almost no official voice of opposition...

This is not in line with the national conditions of the United States at all!

When the media person who originally thought it was another Onion News heard this sentence, he suddenly realized.

This man is so reasonable!

What is the virtue of the American government and the media? Don't they know that they are engaged in the media? The master who used to find a way to jump out and scold him for nothing, how could he be so consistent in his treatment of mutants?

There must be something wrong here!

A group of media people who started out by fabricating news suddenly felt a sense of professional honor. Based on Charles Xavier's ability and the recent strange trend of public opinion, they concocted conspiracy theory articles and published them.

In fact, Stryker's speculation is not wrong. Although Charles did not brainwash the high-level officials, the officials still have some scruples about Charles' ability, and they also cover up Stryker, so they don't intend to be involved in this kind of thing. Go to stimulate Professor X again.

In addition, Kraft allowed Angela to control public opinion to a certain extent, causing most media to get wrong data, thinking that publishing articles sympathizing with mutants can earn traffic and money, which is why the current situation appears. Public opinion is one-sided.

In fact, as long as Stryker waits a little longer, the officials will take action to cool down the public opinion, but Kraft's actions are too fast, and Stryker is not very familiar with the operation of public opinion, so this kind of misunderstanding occurs. .

"Professor! Something big happened!"

When Professor X was worrying about what Magneto was doing in hiding, he saw Storm rushing into his office yelling.

Before Charles could ask, Storm put several newspapers from today in front of him.

After reading the headlines of these newspapers with a solemn face, Professor X immediately picked up the phone and started contacting those officials who were close to mutants.

However, after a few phone calls, Professor X's face became more serious.

Because the attitudes of those officials who supported the mutants had obviously changed, and Charles guessed that they were influenced by public opinion.

Actually not.

Like those officials who opposed mutants, most of these officials who supported mutants did not choose to cooperate with Professor X because they sympathized with mutants.

To be exact, the authorities as a whole took a vigilant attitude towards mutants, but some advocated gentleness, while others were more radical.

And these officials of the Huairou faction suddenly discovered that many of the officials of the radical faction seem to have changed their attitudes and positions recently.

Originally, they didn't pay much attention to it, they just changed their positions, which is commonplace for people like them.

However, after recent public opinion mentions, they discovered that the situation seems to be not that simple, because those who changed their positions were once very hard-line opponents.

Under the influence of no special circumstances, this transformation seems too unnatural.

Now the conspiracy theories in those newspapers seemed very credible, but the brainwashing targets were not themselves, but their former opponents.

"I need to talk to Eric!"

Although Professor X doesn't know the specific thoughts of those official people, he also understands that the current wind direction is starting to be unfavorable to mutants again, and Magneto is still hiding in the dark at this time, planning to make troubles.

So he decided to have a good talk with Magneto. For this reason, Professor Charles did not hesitate to use a brain wave enhancer to forcibly read the memories of those Magneto supporters.

It's just that when Professor Charles put on a brain wave enhancer and started searching for mutants all over the world, he suddenly found that the number of mutants in the United States suddenly increased sharply.

Charles checked their identities curiously, and found that these newly added mutants were actually officials and wealthy businessmen who had opposed mutants, and there was even William Stryker, who was at home now.

"Could it be that... Eric succeeded?"

Professor Charles thought of Congressman Kelly who had turned into a puddle of water in front of him.
