Chapter 209: The Truth
Lu Chuang raised his eyebrows, uncertain: "You mean Professor X?"
In terms of Ability, Professor X is definitely one of the top Mutants. It has the most powerful Telepathy Ability in the world. It can manipulate other people's thinking at will. The mental power in old age has reached its peak. It can be connected to The thinking of creatures all over the world is the ultimate boss with full spiritual value.
According to the information provided by Ivan, the Professor X in this world should be at its peak state, and it stands to reason that it is impossible for Ability to lose control.
Shadowcat nodded heavily: "Ten years ago, Professor X got a disease, which caused his mental state to become more and more unstable. Later, his Ability gradually became uncontrollable."
"What disease?"
"Alzheimer's disease."
"How can it be!!"
Hearing what Shadowcat said, Marcus was the first to jump out and retort: "Professor X has the strongest brain in the world, how could he suffer from Alzheimer's disease?"
Alzheimer's disease, commonly known as senile dementia.
This kind of disease is normal for ordinary old people, but for Professor X, it's like that sand sculpture of Wade suffering from autism.
Shadowcat smiled wryly: "I didn't want to believe it at the beginning, but it's the truth."
Lu Chuang wondered: "No, Ivan said that she had seen Professor X with her own eyes, and it was Professor X who asked her to create the Mutant underground organization. It sounds quite sober."
"Because the professor's symptoms were not serious at that time, they could be controlled with drugs."
Shadowcat explained this, saying: "When the professor found out that he had Alzheimer's disease, he began to arrange follow-up work, which was to create the Mutant underground organization. The new generation Mutant selected by him is the leader. "
"Why the new generation of Mutants, aren't there other X-Men? Wouldn't it be better for them to lead the Mutant underground? And where are they now?"
Lu Chuang turned into a curious baby, asking Shadowcat all kinds of questions.
Shadowcat had no intention of hiding it, and sighed lightly.
"It all started ten years ago. In fact, we didn't disappear voluntarily back then, but were forced to do so because we found some changes in ourselves."
"What change?"
"Our Ability is degrading without any signs."
Shadowcat said with a bitter tone: "Not only us X-Men, but also Brotherhood people, all of us have begun to show degeneration of Ability, and our bodies have also appeared in different degrees of disease."
"The most serious one is the professor. Through examination, we found that his brain has undergone physiological atrophy, which is also the reason for his Alzheimer's disease. There is also Wolverine Logan, whose self-healing factor is getting worse and worse. Rare, the body is not as strong as before."
"Later, the professor and Magneto, the leader of the Brotherhood, jointly investigated the truth, and finally found the source of all this."
"What is it?"
Lu Chuang was acting as a supporter.
"It's the Essex company, they have developed a genetically modified grain that inhibits gene X, and they are doing a large and silent promotion, adding that genetically modified grain to everything from drinks to breakfast cereals, as a way to cure the disease. weigh our bodies."
Everyone frowned, what a vicious move!
You must know that people live to eat, drink, and sleep, and eating and drinking account for almost half of them. This is a physiological need that Mutant cannot avoid. of chronic toxicity.
"Why are they again!"
Clarice gritted her teeth. She was almost sent to the Essex laboratory by the Sentry Secret Service before, and she hated the Essex company.
Marcus opened his palm, and it shone like a flashlight.
"Strange, I never felt that there was any problem with my Ability, and others didn't seem to have this kind of problem either."
Shadowcat said: "That's because you have antibodies in your body, the human body is adaptable, the new generation Mutant body has adapted to the genetically modified grain, so it will not be affected by this genetically modified grain, or your body has long been affected by the genetically modified grain. affected."
"If you observe carefully, you will find that the number of Mutant newborns is decreasing every year, and the ability of the new generation of Mutants is also getting weaker and weaker. Most of the reason is because of genetically modified grains."
Lu Chuang suddenly realized: "It's no wonder that the Mutants are now so rare, and each one is weaker than the other. This is the reason."
Members of the Mutant Underground:
Thanks, have been offended.
"and after?"
Intuition told Lu Chuang that he was close to the truth.
"Later, we gathered a team and prepared to deal with the Essex Corporation with Brotherhood, but... the professor's illness suddenly broke out, and his Ability was completely out of control.
"The professor's spiritual ability is too powerful. We have no ability to block us. Everyone is controlled by the professor. At that time, only Logan could barely move around. He dragged me out of the professor's control area. Run back and try to save the others."
"But when Logan went back again, the professor was unconscious, surrounded by brain-dead corpses, including the corpses of Brotherhood members, human corpses, and... the corpses of our companions."
When saying these words, Shadowcat's face was full of pain.
It was as if seeing the scene where the corpses of his companions were strewn all over the field again.
Several Mutants looked at Shadowcat sympathetically, if they encountered such a situation, they would probably collapse on the spot.
Shadowcat took a deep breath, relieved his emotions a little, and continued: "After the professor woke up, he couldn't accept what he had done. His condition became more serious, and the phenomenon of Ability out of control became more and more frequent. For the safety of the students, we disbanded Entered the Xavier Academy for Gifted Boys, and let the professor stay in the school to cultivate.
"But later, we discovered that the Essex company was secretly arresting those students who had left, so we called the students back and let them hide in the school's back room, where there were sufficient food and water sources, and then I and Logan intends to move the professor to another safe location."
"Who knew that the Essex company found the address of our school. At that time, Logan rushed out to distract them, and I sneaked out of the school with the professor."
"Later, Logan, covered in blood, found us. Because he was worried about the professor's safety and illness, Logan decided to take the professor away from this land alone. He didn't specify the destination, and even I didn't know where they went. When I got back to school, I found the students were missing."
"I think you all already know what happened next..."
After listening to Shadowcat's narration, Lu Chuang is basically sure.
The current timeline should be before the events of Wolverine III.
This plot roughly tells about a world where Mutants are almost extinct. There is no X-Men, no Brotherhood, only an old wolf with his old father and rebellious daughter. A sad story about meeting death.
Judging from the time, Wolverine and Professor X should still be staying somewhere where Fang Yin is hiding from the world.
Now, all the clues are connected.
To put it simply, the Essex company is behind the scenes. X-Men and Brotherhood wanted to solve this scourge together, but before they started to act, their own leaders took the lead in backstabbing them, causing X-Men and Brotherhood to The two Mutant organizations were wiped out collectively.
Lu Chuang sighed for a while, the X-Men and Brotherhood, two such powerful mutant organizations, disappeared inexplicably like this, which is really absurd.
Thinking about it this way, the Mutant underground organization seems to be pretty good.
At least John was out of control, and the other members could easily hang John up and beat him.
One crushes all?
nonexistent!
