Marvel's princess becomes king
Chapter 150 Commitment
The powerful psychic ability promises not to be used easily, but it is not useless. The old bald man secretly used it twice without anyone noticing, and it was not difficult at all to read the memories of several salted fish mages.
There is no question of who is higher or lower when it comes to superpowers and magic. For example, the Omega-level mutant Vulcan, the God of Fire, can absorb magic forcefully. He regards magic as a kind of energy and can absorb it without any obstacles.
In addition, the old bald man also has Storm beside him, so he knows the existence of magic, so it is not a surprise.
Bella answered frankly: "I am different from them, and I am different from Ororo. I am..."
Charles quickly raised a palm to signal her to stop, and said with a smile: "Ororo once explained the principles of those magics to me. To be honest, I didn't understand them, and I don't understand the strange energies you control either. .”
He did not go too deep into the topic of magic, but said his purpose: "Miss Swan, I want to cooperate with you."
"Cooperation?"
"Yes, cooperate. I can see that you are a good person and have no hostility towards mutants."
Bella pushed his wheelchair and said nothing, waiting for the old man to continue.
"But the ideas of mutants are still in their infancy. The world is not ready, and mutants are not ready either. The contradictions broke out so suddenly."
The old man sighed: "The longer I live, the more powerless I feel. When I was young, I once wanted to correct those mistakes, but what happened later proved that I was not correct. Of course, my enemies were not correct either. In the face of survival, no one is right."
Bella was a little confused. What does this have to do with herself? Are you asking yourself to write a book about the peaceful coexistence of mutants and humans?
"I hope to cooperate with you and use your perspective to make some more objective judgments, identify the pros and cons, and correct the wrong actions of some mutants or humans."
The old man said it very complicatedly, but Bella understood the core meaning.
To put it clearly, he just wants to hire her as a thug. Whether it is a mutant or a human, as long as something happens that is not in line with the old bald man's values, Bella will help him solve it. The old man can pretend not to know, and he can still be in front of others. Behind the scenes, he maintains his image as a mellow elder.
The old man is a thief, and the word he uses is cooperation, not employment.
In other words, it's a deal.
If you help me catch a mutant who wants to cause destruction, I will help you once again. If you help me get rid of another mutant, I will help you in other ways.
Bella was a little afraid of trouble: "I am still in the learning stage. If it is an enemy that is too powerful, then I will definitely be..."
Sure of what? Definitely can't beat it!
What if Professor Charles asked her to capture Magneto? Without a particularly suitable time and environment, she really couldn't beat Magneto.
The old bald man patted the back of her hand gently: "Don't worry, there's no need to change anything. Just follow the plan and do your own thing."
"Okay, I agree." Bella really had no reason to refuse such a verbal promise, so she agreed immediately.
That afternoon, she flew back to Stanford.
......
The Da Vinci Code was selling like crazy in the United States. In less than a month, it became the third best-selling book in the United States. The name of Bella's beautiful author also slowly surfaced in the promotion.
A reporter from the Los Angeles Times came specifically to interview her.
In terms of character design, he is still the cliched one who is pitiful, weak and helpless, and looks easy to bully, but this time the photos are much more beautiful!
After all, in the eyes of the public, Bella is already rich and has enjoyed the benefits of capitalism's overnight fame. It is really not inspiring enough to dress in rags and be unkempt! Not enough of the American dream!
After her beautiful photos were published, compliments from the spiritual level came in a steady stream.
There must be many of them with dirty thoughts, but compared to the increase in strength, she feels that she can endure it. Isn't it just licking the photos? Let them add it!
On the Stanford campus, Bella's popularity has become even higher. However, there are many capable people who have done great things while they were students at Stanford. Her achievements can only be said to be not low, compared with those who are constantly developing a program and writing Compared with people who have made millions of profits from just one algorithm, she is still worse.
Stanford is so deeply influenced by Silicon Valley that writing work cannot be said to be looked down upon, but for those top students, only talented people in the IT industry, economic field, and medical field are the best, and the rest of the professions are just that.
"Oh ho ho ho—" In the dormitory, Bella calculated her royalties and couldn't help laughing like a pig...
At this time, nearly copies of The Da Vinci Code had been sold, and the hardcover edition was being printed. She had finished writing the Spanish and French editions and emailed them to Random House.
The current royalty income alone exceeds one million, and this is still in the early days. The Da Vinci Code in her impression has printed million copies in the United States alone, and now it is not even a tenth of it.
However, the money still has to be taxed, and Random House will not be able to settle the royalties to her until the end of the year. In other words, she is still not rich at this time...
......
The incident of the Zodiac Killer has been slowly forgotten by the people of California, and the human trafficking incident in Paris seems to have been successfully resolved. Bella and her family are preparing for a family trip.
It has been almost a year since this new family was formed. Charlie and Samantha went to Spain for their honeymoon, and Bella and Natasha also went to Paris for a 'tour', but the family of four has never taken a single trip, which is very unfortunate. U.S.
On Friday, Charlie called Bella back to Los Angeles, who was still writing a new book at Stanford, and their family of four was going to travel.
"The Hunger Games? Is this your new book? Yo...it's the heroine!" Natasha looked through Bella's manuscript and slowly became interested.
"Panem? Is this a future utopia? I always thought you only wrote religious stories."
She watched it with great interest, as if she wanted to find some mistakes and make Bella laugh.
But as the story slowly progressed, Natasha's eyes couldn't help but beat a few times when she saw the heroine participating in the Hunger Games on behalf of her sister.
She was a little touched by the deep feeling in the text that a sister would die for her sister, but she still pointed to the paragraph and asked: "Is this written based on me? I am the frail, blond and blue-eyed sister, and you are the heroic and heroic one. Sister?"
"Huh? Haha -" Bella raised her head and said haha. Her cheap sister seemed to have misunderstood something. The Hunger Games was originally the plot arrangement. How could she, a copycat, embody her true emotions?
But this thing is really hard to explain, so just misunderstand it.
