Chapter 441 The Fairness and Beauty of Absolute Judgment
Facing the leader of all white magic users on Earth, even Magneto couldn't help but feel troublesome, because no one yet knew the extent of the Sorcerer Supreme's power.
However, based on the strength shown by those mages currently known, the Sorcerer Supreme probably wouldn't be too weak either. As the saying goes, the unknown is the scariest thing. Facing an uncertain enemy, Magneto decided to observe for a while.
After all, although he himself was confident that he could retreat unscathed from these people's siege, it would be uncertain if he wanted to take Cyclops and the others with him.
Facing Magneto's question, Doctor Strange took the lead and said, "You've caused such a big commotion, we definitely have to come and see. After all, if I didn't come, I estimate you might have destroyed New York."
Howard then said, "You should know, Magneto, the reason why the government agreed to you building a floating island near New York Harbor is because you resolved the 616 incident. They think you are different from Professor X, that you are a mutant leader who can communicate and is not so radical."
"If those politicians knew what you just said, they would definitely change their minds, and the living environment for mutants might become even more difficult."
"Are you being sarcastic to me?" Magneto looked at Howard with an unfriendly expression. "Even killing my own friends only gained me a piece of land where I can barely survive. Prejudice in people's hearts is like a mountain. Charles and I spent our entire lives trying to move this mountain, but we couldn't."
Magneto smiled sadly and continued, "Later, Charles went crazy. As for me, I probably went crazy on the day I had to kill him with my own hands. I actually thought about inheriting his ideas and continuing to move that mountain. I wanted to prove him right."
As Magneto spoke, he raised his right hand. As his right hand moved, everyone noticed that the ground beneath their feet began to shake, as if an earthquake had occurred. Then the sunlight disappeared, and a huge shadow enveloped everyone.
Everyone looked up and found a high mountain of unknown origin, floating in the high sky. The one who caused this shocking scene was Magneto, who raised his right hand.
"I can move mountains and seas, and even heaven and earth." Magneto's eyes were calm, as if he was doing a trivial thing. "But I have no way to move the mountain in people's hearts."
After speaking, Magneto, whose back was slightly bent, waved his hand, and let the mountain go back to where it came from.
"I still say the same thing." Magneto straightened his back again. "No one can take away my compatriots. If anyone dares to stop me again, then wait for mutual destruction."
Magneto's crazy performance surprised Howard and Doctor Strange. They didn't expect Magneto to go to this extent for a mutant.
Yang Le was the same. It wasn't that he doubted Magneto's emphasis on his compatriots, but that today's Magneto seemed a little off, much more irritable than usual.
But seeing that other mutants hadn't noticed anything unusual, Yang Le didn't ask any more questions. After all, he wasn't a real mutant, and he hadn't received that level of discrimination. Yang Le estimated that it might be years of resentment coupled with the death of a friend that caused Magneto to be a little overwhelmed.
Anyway, Yang Le felt that he didn't have Magneto's level of mental fortitude. If he had experienced what Magneto had experienced, he would probably immediately start the nine exterminations game.
Now, the two sides were deadlocked here. The mutants could not hand over Illyana. Although Howard didn't say it explicitly, it could be seen that he also advocated taking Illyana back to be sanctioned by law. He was considered to be standing with the Supreme Squadron.
As for Doctor Strange, who was brought by Howard, he didn't seem to want to intervene in this matter. Apart from condemning Magneto for making too much noise, he hadn't said another word, and looked a little absent-minded, looking like an office worker waiting to get off work.
Yang Le thought about it, and continuing to persist like this was very likely to develop into a big fight. At that time, maybe many more superheroes would come. Although Yang Le himself is an ordinary person when he doesn't use the Omnitrix, as a transmigrator, he is still used to stepping back in most cases and look at problems from a third-party perspective.
The problem between mutants and ordinary people actually originates from the X-gene in mutants' bodies. In fact, modern Earthlings in the Marvel universe should all have this gene in their bodies, because mutants are actually left by a Celestial group member in the bodies of a part of humans in ancient times.
After millions of years of reproduction, there should be no humans without the X-gene on Earth now, but only those whose X-gene is "awakened" can become mutants.
This means that only Yang Le, this transmigrator, is a truly pure human in the Marvel universe. However, as long as Yang Le wants to, he can also remove the X-gene of all Earthlings, but he probably won't do this.
If Azmuth were here, he would definitely scold the Celestials for their actions. This kind of inhumane genetic modification is what he hates most. Maybe he would even have a big fight with the Celestials for this.
But those are not things Yang Le should think about now. What he has to do now is to quickly resolve the dispute in front of him. Fortunately, his current Superman identity is a third party, if he had been using the Swampfire identity of the mutant side, he wouldn't even be able to interrupt.
"Stop for a moment." Yang Le flew up and floated between the two sides, making sure everyone's eyes were on him. "It's endless to keep arguing like this."
"You are?" Howard frowned slightly. He had always regarded Yang Le as a new superhero, so he hadn't paid much attention. He never expected Yang Le to stand up at this time.
"My name is Yang Le." Yang Le had to introduce himself again. "I am from Krypton, an alien who grew up in China."
"Kryptonian?" Howard chewed on this unfamiliar term repeatedly, then turned to look at Doctor Strange aside, the meaning was self-evident.
Doctor Strange shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of this race at all.
"Okay then, guest from outer space, I wonder what you want to say?"
Because he hadn't seen Yang Le fighting Hyperion, Howard didn't know Yang Le's strength, but good etiquette still made him maintain goodwill and give the most basic respect to Yang Le, this mysterious stranger.
"Since the law enforcement agencies of humans are not fair, why not establish an organization that can maintain fairness even when facing non-humans?"
