Become God in Marvel

Chapter 26 Confrontation

At this time, another middle-aged man with meticulously combed hair walked into the office.

"Mr. President." The man seemed very surprised that there were four people in the office at this moment.

President Ellis stepped forward to shake hands with the man and introduced: "Now we are all here. This is Colonel William Stryker, this is Congressman Kelly, and this is my adviser Mr. Malik. This is Mr. Xu."

After hearing President Ellis's introduction, Congressmen Stryker and Kelly all turned their attention to Xu Cheng.

Because from the introduction just now, among the four people arriving today, President Ellis thinks the most important one is actually Xu Cheng.

Congressman Kelly raised his eyebrows slightly. For him who has been in Washington for a long time, he has naturally heard about this newly emerged major shareholder of the Osborne Group.

For Stryker, financial gossip is not his focus, so this is the first time he heard about Xu Cheng.

President Ellis continued: "William is the head of the Mutant Affairs Division and has been since I took office. Congressman Kelly is a big fan of the Mutant Registration Act. Gideon is my security adviser and he has I recommended Mr. Xu to help us understand the mutant community better."

Stryker obviously still has this military style: "This Mr. Xu is very unfamiliar. I seem to have never heard of him. How can he have such a deep understanding of mutants?"

"Come, sit down and talk." President Ellis said to everyone, relaxing the atmosphere.

"Colonel Stryker has been devoted to the scientific research of mutants, and naturally he has no time to pay attention to an unknown person like me."

After sitting down, Xu Cheng showed a strange smile to Stryker and emphasized the "scientific research undertaking".

"As for why I know something about mutants, it's naturally because I am a mutant."

As soon as these words came out, President Ellis, who was originally planning to sit down next to Xu Cheng, only stiffened slightly for a moment, and then sat down naturally next to Xu Cheng.

On the opposite side, Congressman Kelly and Stryker, who were already seated, stood up immediately as if there were springs under their butts. Congressman Kelly's eyes flashed with a trace of amusement, while Stryker's face was livid and he glared as usual. Gideon.

"Sit down, please. Since it's about mutants, we naturally need representatives of mutants to discuss it together." President Ellis smiled and stretched out his hand to comfort the two, thinking that if he wanted to be harmful, the entire White House would not be able to see it. Yes, why be so surprised.

After hearing what President Ellis said, the two felt that they were a little extreme, so they sat down with a smile.

Stryker was not at peace at the moment. He didn't even know why this mutant could appear in President Ellis's sight and enter this room so openly at such a sensitive moment.

Do your plans need to change?Will the other party see the flaw?

But now it was time to shoot the arrow. Stryker glanced at the young and immature face of Xu Cheng opposite him and decided to follow his plan.

At worst, if something goes wrong, he will blame Magneto and say that he was deceived by Magneto.

After making the decision, Stryker regained his original composure and smile, and took out a few photos from the document bag he carried with him.

"Mr. President, Mr. Senator, Mr. Xu, after the assassination incident, we conducted multiple investigations and have collected some evidence."

Stryker said as he put down a photo, which showed a front view of a manor.

"This is a training facility in the northern suburbs of New York that specializes in training mutants."

"Is your source reliable?" President Ellis asked, picking up the photo.

"This is our interrogation of a terrorist involved in the Liberty Island incident..."

"Eric Lancer?" Senator Kelly interrupted, "Have you talked to him?"

"That's right, Magneto. We designed the latest plastic prison for him." Stryker said with a little pride.

"Is that training institution a school?" Councilor Kelly asked, taking the photo handed over by President Ellis.

"no doubt."

As he spoke, Stryker put down another picture, which was an overhead view of the manor, from which a vague shadow similar to an airplane could be seen.

"What the hell is this?" President Ellis asked as he took the photo.

"airplane."

"What kind of plane?"

"I don't know, I just know that it can take off and land from the basketball court."

After hearing this, President Ellis's face became serious and he looked at the photo in his hand seriously.

Stryker observed that when the first photo was delivered to Xu Cheng, Xu Cheng just glanced at it and threw it back on the table without any expression, which made him feel even more confident.

"Mr. President, I want an authorization to conduct a special operation." Stryker immediately told his true purpose.

President Ellis was about to express his position when he suddenly heard Xu Cheng interrupt beside him: "Wait a moment, Mr. President, I have a few questions to ask Colonel Stryker."

Stryker's heart sank, and he sat upright, preparing to answer the question from Xu Cheng.

He just saw the look of fear on President Ellis's face, and he knew in his heart that the president already had an idea for this school.

A school owns the latest fighter jets that have not been widely used by the US Air Force. How could the president not be extremely worried about it?

"I heard that you once sent your son to this school, right?" Xu Cheng smiled kindly.

Stryker was already ready for battle when Xu Cheng interrupted, but Xu Cheng's question still caught him off guard.This is his psychological forbidden area, a pain that cannot be touched.

"Yes, but they turned him into a monster who took pleasure in torturing others." Stryker said with anger in his voice.

"Regardless of who turned your son into a monster, your wife committed suicide because she couldn't bear the torture of various illusions in her head, right?" Xu Cheng asked calmly.

"Yes." Stryker's face became a little ferocious.

"So you hate your son, and you hate all mutants."

"You transformed your son into an unconscious puppet, and obtained from him the weapons to control people's minds."

"For your revenge plan, you also controlled a mutant and asked him to assassinate Mr. President, William Stryker. Do you admit it?"

Xu Cheng spoke quickly and urgently, without giving Stryker any chance to interrupt and refute, trying to break Stryker's psychological defense.

President Ellis was shocked when he heard Xu Cheng's words and stared at Stryker, trying to discern something from his expression.

Councilor Kelly moved slightly away from Stryker, as if to be on guard against Stryker, but there was a hint of that in his eyes.

Stryker was indeed shocked when he heard this, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up and was not noticed by anyone.
