Chapter 1119： Looking at the stars

, !

In San Diego on the west coast, outside a house near the port.

Kuaiyin, who had a messy head and silver-gray medium-long hair, tidyed up his appearance with his hands, trying to make himself look neater, then took a deep breath and reached out to ring the doorbell.

However, before his fingers touched the doorbell, the door slowly opened.

It seems that the owner of this house has long known that he will come.

Kuaiyin took a deep breath again, and then stepped into the house. After walking through the entrance, he came to the living room and saw the target of this trip, the mysterious person who had helped them.

"Sir, I want you to...help the mutants!"

This was the third meeting, and Kuaiyin looked at the mysterious man with a trace of respect and awe on his face.

"Who asked you to come?"

Lord took a cup of freshly brewed coffee and sat on the bench with Erlang's legs crossed.

"Yes... the professor asked me to come."

Knowing this man's terrifying Kuaiyin well, when he faced him again, he looked very restrained, his Adam's apple twitched up and down, swallowing saliva.

"Aren't mutants nice?"

Lorde looked at him with a half-smile, and said, "The five Phoenix Apostles are so majestic. In less than a month, they solved your problems and made the world so beautiful."

"No sir, you should know that it's not true!"

Kuaiyin shook his head, showing a hint of fear, and said: "Since they appeared, everything has changed..."

Since the arrival of the Phoenix Apostle, everything has been changed.

The situation of the entire world has undergone earth-shaking changes in less than fifteen days.

The first targets of the mutants were the Avengers and the Illuminati. In a very short period of time, they were completely defeated by the five apostles of the Phoenix who suddenly descended, and only a few people were able to escape.

In the days that followed, the five Phoenix Apostles ruled the entire planet with dictatorial rule.

Military, political, educational, economic, construction, etc... All powers of this kind are forcibly controlled by the five apostles of the Phoenix, and a brand new X-Men and the world's highest council have been formed to decide all human affairs.

As the Avengers did with mutants before, now everything is turned upside down.

The Avengers, which were worshipped by the people in the past, have now become street rats that everyone shouts and beat. They are the demons that cause war, the villains who manipulate people's reason and public opinion, and the source of all disasters.

Go from hero to villain in just a few days.

Most of the ordinary people, under the bombardment of information bombardment by social media, media and politics, turned their hatred to the former heroes, accusing, scolding and cursing the executioners.

As for mutants, under the deliberate guidance of the media, they have become innocent victims.

Just like the Jews during World War II, they had the right to speak when they mastered the media, constantly complaining about the torture they had endured in the past, turning the Avengers and the Illuminati into a new demon.

And all the credit for this is based on the power of the phoenix.

Although the people are ignorant, they will not follow the leadership of a group of mutants. The most fundamental reason is that they have brought about changes!

Let the desert grow lush green forests, inexhaustible energy, there will be no more wars in the world, and even criminal incidents have been compressed to the extreme. a perfect world.

Everything is the power of the phoenix.

The five phoenix apostles have joined forces to create a utopia that only exists in ideals.

They did it, and it's even been very successful.

However, all of this is based on the power of the phoenix.

Kuaiyin, who understands the dangers of the power of the phoenix, is well aware of the terrifying power of this power. Everything that seems beautiful in front of him is just a moon in the mirror, and it may be burned by the flame of the phoenix at any time and turned into one. pile of ruins.

"This...isn't that what you want?"

Lord picked up the coffee cup, which was his favorite latte, took a sip, turned his head to look out the window, and chuckled: "In a society where mutants are high above, they will no longer be scorned and discriminated against, let alone A flawless world that is feared to be hunted down."

Hearing this, Kuaiyin fell silent, a tangle flashed across his face.

He doesn't know if this world is really perfect, but what the father and the professor once wanted was definitely not such a world, full of hypocrisy and deceit, and with the help of another power, they achieved a world like a "beautiful dream".

"No....I don't know if they're doing the right thing."

Kuaiyin clenched his fists, his young face was full of self-doubt: "But... I don't think this is the path of mutants, we can't pin everything on the power of the phoenix on the body!"

It can be seen that he does not approve of the actions of the Phoenix Five Apostles.

Lorde can understand this. After all, everything that the five apostles have built is based on the power of the phoenix, but this power is a double-edged sword, which will easily hurt users in the future.

But the problem is precisely here, the power of the Phoenix is ​​not a long-term plan.

If one day, when the mutants no longer have the phoenix, lose the infinite energy to win over people's hearts, and have no power to suppress everything, then what awaits them will be a counterattack from humans.

The problem of mutants is not solved, it just exists in a different form.

"Since he knows the reason, why doesn't he solve it himself?" Lord said sternly.

"Professor... There is no way to solve it." Kuaiyin's eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth: "The five Phoenix Apostles, they have all been affected, and they have become no longer listening to the professor's words. this world."

"They even... used cruel means to suppress their fellow X-Men!"

"Now, there is no one who can contain the five apostles!"

Professor X saw the key, but... he was powerless to change.

The five Phoenix Apostles today are no longer the students they used to be, but dictators with enormous power.

Not only against humans, but also against mutants, they took cruel measures.

"The professor asked me to come, and I want you to help us!"

Kuaiyin raised his head and looked at the mysterious man in front of him with anticipation, begging: "He said, only you can change all this, please... end the rule of the Phoenix Five Apostles!"

The Phoenix Five Apostles did not create a better world, but instead led the mutants to a deeper abyss.

Professor X, who was desperate, did not want to watch the mutants fall into the abyss. He thought of the man who was tabooed by the observers, so he asked Quicksilver to come over for help. This was the only way he could think of.

"I'm sorry, Pietro."

Lord put down the coffee cup, folded his hands on his lap, and said: "I can't agree to your request, this is a conflict between mutants and humans, you should solve it yourself, not come to me for help ."

Kuaiyin's lips twitched, but in the end he bowed his head in pain, gritted his teeth and said, "I understand what you mean, sir."

In fact, the professor had blessed him before he came, so don't expect too much.

Being rejected now is just an expected result.

"Excuse me, sir."

Kuaiyin bowed deeply said sincerely: "Thank you for taking me in and teaching me before, whether you admit it or not, I respect you very much, you will always be my teacher , I wish you good health, I... go back first."

After all, Kuaiyin did not intend to stay any longer, and turned around to leave.

He was going to find another person, Utu, whom the professor called the 'Observer', where he might get new revelations.

"The starry sky is good tonight, don't forget to take a look."

Just as Kuaiyin stepped out of the threshold with half a foot, Lord's voice came from behind.

"Starry sky?"

Kuaiyin was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around to ask the reason, he found that the whole house was gone.

He was the only one left, standing by the empty harbour, and the words just now appeared in his mind involuntarily.

"Sir, do you mean... let me see the stars?"

Kuaiyin raised his head in confusion, stared at the already dark night sky, and muttered to himself.
