A Staged Performance
Just as Bumblebee was evading pursuit and eliminating stars, the President's vehicle had also escaped, but was quickly intercepted.
Because Magneto and the others finally showed up.
Li Chen only knew about Magneto, so he waited for Professor X to confirm.
"That's them, there are quite a few of them."
Professor X sensed it for a moment and nodded.
Now that the main character has appeared, they should also show themselves.
When they arrived, Magneto and his crew had already stopped the President's vehicle.
In reality, by this point, their plan had already failed.
But Magneto still had a confident expression.
He seemed to have been waiting on purpose, as if he already knew the X-Men would appear.
Therefore, Magneto simply gave Li Chen a deep look.
"You should have been on my side."
"Laugh."
Li Chen chuckled.
"In this world, the strong are respected; you are too weak."
Magneto remained unperturbed, instead saying meaningfully, "Might doesn't represent all strength."
Li Chen didn't reply to him, but instead looked at President Matthew Ellis.
Something's not right!
He immediately used his Super Vision.
At that moment, Magneto said to Mystique, "Raven, you've disappointed me greatly."
I gave you a chance, but you still betrayed me.
Mystique said expressionlessly, "None of you have ever respected me, except for Lee, who is different."
"Hehe."
Magneto looked at Professor X and said, "Charles, my plan has failed, and there's no need for us to take further action."
He glanced at the X-Men: "You don't want tomorrow's headlines to be about us Mutants again, do you? They'll think we've become a threat again."
Professor X narrowed his eyes, instinctively sensing that something was wrong.
By this time, Li Chen had figured it out.
Faced with Super Vision, no one can pretend to be anything to him.
Even if he is Mutants.
Li Chen suddenly clapped.
"Clap clap!"
His actions attracted everyone's attention, from the X-Men to Magneto and others.
"What's wrong?"
Jean Grey, being closest to Li Chen, naturally asked the question.
"Wonderful, absolutely wonderful."
Li Chen said, "Erik, I have to admit you do have some skills."
He always thought Magneto was just a brute...
But now we realize that Magneto also had a scheme!
"You always thought Raven would betray you, so you never told her the whole plan. I have to say, I really feel sorry for Raven."
Li Chen first tried to sow discord between Mystique.
It was to prevent this brain-dead woman from possibly betraying him.
As expected, upon hearing Li Chen's words, Mystique immediately changed drastically, and she glared at Magneto, Erik, with hatred.
Putting the facts aside, even though she was defeated by Li Chen, Magneto and his group completely without fault?
Magneto's distrust only strengthened her belief that she was right.
Women are all like this; they find reasons to convince themselves and then enjoy it all with a clear conscience.
Then, Li Chen continued, "After all, who would have thought that the President of the America was actually a Mutants?"
Upon hearing Li Chen's words, everyone present changed their expression.
The X-Men and others stared at Matthew Ellis in surprise, as did Magneto's men, who widened their eyes with expressions of utter astonishment.
Only Magneto seemed to be suffering as if he had just finished a thesis defense.
How did you figure that out?
He didn't deny it; denying it at this point would have been pointless.
He just wanted to know how Li Chen did it.
Could it be that Li Chen, like Caliban, possesses the special ability to sense the abilities of Mutants?
No one can hide anything from my eyes.
Li Chen smiled calmly.
Although Matthew Ellis's mutant abilities were not obvious, and could even be described as useless, Li Chen could still see them.
This is absolutely Big News Morgans. If it gets out, Matthew Ellis will lose his presidency within an hour.
So at this moment, he had a look on his face as if his horse had died.
"Mutants!?"
Professor X was also shocked. He looked at the President and then at Magneto.
Why didn't you say something so important earlier?
"So... this was all staged by himself?"
However, Professor X quickly realized what was happening.
If Matthew Ellis is Mutants, then Magneto Erik's so-called plan just seems ridiculous, doesn't it?
That's why Li Chen said that Mystique was tricked from the very beginning.
Mystique also realized what was happening and glared angrily at Magneto.
"That's right."
Li Chen nodded. "Erik's real target was never the President of America, but everyone who remained there."
At this moment, Magneto's plan finally came to light.
He is not the president who wants to control the America.
After all, the Grand Commander's term is four years. If he's lucky, he can serve two consecutive terms. If he's unlucky, he has to leave once the four-year term is up. It's only one year longer than Xiao Yan's three-year agreement.
Magneto could not accomplish his grand plan by simply serving as a leader for a few years.
Matthew Ellis was willing to help him because Matthew wanted to do something for Mutants.
His mutant ability is very weak and almost useless, but he dares not reveal it and can only pretend to be a normal person and carry out his activities in society.
He had considered the possibility of appearing before the world as a Mutants.
But he didn't dare.
And without a doubt, it was because Magneto knew his identity that he secretly helped him.
However, Magneto had never revealed this before.
Of course, Matthew Ellis must have had the ability to defeat 'The Lucian' and become the President of the America.
But none of that matters anymore.
Because Magneto's target isn't just himself, but a powerful figure who wants to control all the world's major powers...
I have to say, it's crazy.
However, Li Chen was still curious about what Magneto was going to do.
But now he wasn't paying much attention to the other side; instead, he walked towards Matthew Ellis.
"Mr. Ellis, I admire your desire to do something for Mutants, but you're on the wrong track."
Li Chen said, "It's unlikely that Mutants will overthrow human rule, but they can establish their own kingdoms."
"This is what America and the world should be doing."
Matthew Ellis glanced instinctively at Magneto.
However, Li Chen laughed and said, "Of course, a smart person wouldn't refuse, unless you want the whole world to know you're a pathetic Mutants."
Li Chen's words were a bit of a generalization; everyone present was Mutants.
But when they think about it, they really do feel sorry for themselves.
They just wanted to live like ordinary people, nothing more.
Unfortunately, Mutants in America are treated like Black people, facing pervasive discrimination.
"Enough!"
Magneto finally got angry.
