#600 - The establishment of the Mutant Empire (One update)
……
After being officially appointed as the school's psychology professor by Professor X, George began to help everyone stabilize their abilities one by one.
This included Beast Hank, allowing Hank to switch freely between normal human and beast form without the aid of drugs.
Just as he was halfway through, the school's supersonic jet landed, and Magneto controlled a fierce-looking, foul-mouthed Wolverine from the plane.
"Charles, the history teacher you wanted, I've brought him back.
But he seems to have lost his memory and needs you to help him recover some of it."
It turned out that after returning to school, Professor X had examined Stryker's captured memories, learning about Wolverine's capture and transformation into Weapon X.
It was Wolverine who had traveled from the future to help them change history, so how could he stand by and watch Wolverine get captured.
He immediately had Magneto and Mystique cooperate to enter Stryker's base overnight and rescue him back to the school.
It also conveniently filled the history teacher vacancy.
"Logan, relax."
Professor X walked up to Wolverine, placed his hand on his forehead, and began to help Wolverine recover his lost memories.
As his memories slowly recovered, Wolverine's expression calmed down.
While Professor X and Magneto were communicating with Wolverine, Jean proactively approached George.
"Professor George, can you help me?"
Compared to the harm caused by her ability going out of control, the harm caused by other students' abilities going out of control was simply child's play.
When her abilities first awakened, she made an entire street of cars fly into the air.
Even after coming to the Mutant School, with Professor X's help, her abilities were somewhat controlled, but during occasional loss of control, she almost destroyed the entire school.
Therefore, even within the Mutant School, she was seen as a freak by other mutant students.
Now that she saw that Professor George could make everyone's abilities stable and controlled, hope suddenly arose in her heart.
"Of course!"
George very naturally reached out and placed his hand on Jean's head.
When Professor X noticed George helping Jean stabilize her abilities, he immediately turned his attention over.
He knew that Jean possessed powerful potential and strength surpassing him and Magneto, so he naturally valued Jean very much.
If George could solve Jean's problem, that would be great.
"Jean, your situation is a bit complicated."
George pretended to frown, and the hope on Jean's face immediately vanished.
"But it's not impossible to solve."
With George's next sentence, hope rose on Jean's face again.
But before she could ask, Professor X had already walked over to ask for her.
"What's going on, George?"
"It's like this, I found that there are two forces within Jean's body.
One is the power generated by the mutant gene, which I have already helped her stabilize, allowing her to control it freely.
But there is another more powerful force, that force does not originate from the mutant gene and cannot be controlled."
George explained patiently.
Professor X suddenly understood, no wonder he always helped Jean with psychological counseling, but the power within Jean's body could never be completely controlled.
It turned out that there was another external force causing trouble.
"You just said you could solve it?"
"Yes, I also have an ability to dissolve power, but the power within Jean's body is too strong, and it may take a long time to completely dissolve it.
I just don't know if Jean is willing to give up this power?"
George turned to look at Jean, who immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Yes, I am very willing!"
Not to mention that extra power, even if she were to take away the mutant power and completely become an ordinary person, she wouldn't mind.
She had been tormented by this power for too long since she was a child.
"Since you are willing, then you must trust the teacher, because only if you trust the teacher enough and don't resist, the teacher can more easily help you dissolve the power in your body, allowing you to perfectly control your abilities."
George touched Jean's head, and Jean nodded firmly.
"Now, Jean's side is almost settled."
Trust cannot be built with just a few words.
But he believed that as long as Jean felt that the Phoenix Force in her body was really decreasing little by little, and its influence on her was also weakening, she would naturally trust him more and more.
The more she trusted him, the less resistance she had, and the more Phoenix Force he devoured, and the more Jean would trust him, which created a virtuous cycle.
"Next is Scarlet Witch Wanda."
Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
Devouring Jean's Phoenix Force was enough for him to break through to the single universe level.
But no one can say for sure.
To be on the safe side, he felt that Scarlet Witch's Chaos Magic could not be abandoned either, and should be carried out simultaneously.
He wouldn't dislike having too little power.
In the evening, in the Mutant School conference room, Professor X, Magneto, Beast, Havok, Mystique, Quicksilver, Wolverine, and George, along with all the adult mutants, were all sitting together.
"Eric and I have discussed it, and we have decided to officially establish the Mutant Empire, not just a school.
We want to be on an equal footing with human countries, communicate equally, and prevent them from arbitrarily capturing mutants for experiments."
As soon as Professor X finished speaking, Magneto immediately followed up:
"When necessary, we must also show our weapons to let human countries know that provoking us has consequences no less than provoking a superpower with nuclear strike capabilities."
"Yes, he's right, but that's only when necessary."
Professor X did not completely object to Magneto this time, but nodded helplessly.
Originally, even after receiving the warning from the powerful expert from another universe, he still had not made up his mind and had not fully agreed to Magneto's Mutant Empire plan.
It wasn't until he saw Stryker's memories, combined with the memories of Wolverine who had traveled back in time.
He realized that perhaps what the powerful expert from another universe said was right, humans can never fully accept mutants.
In that case, there is no need to blindly please humans and abide by human laws.
It is better to establish an empire belonging to mutants, create laws and regulations belonging to mutants, and build a society belonging to mutants.
In this way, mutant students do not have to painstakingly hide their abilities and pretend to live as ordinary people after graduation, but can naturally enter a perfect society completely built by mutants, using their knowledge and mutant abilities to earn money and live.
"I agree!"
George was the first to raise his hand in agreement, which was the outcome he wanted to see.
If things really worked out, he wouldn't mind helping out, not only by helping students stabilize their abilities, but also by helping them develop their abilities, greatly increasing the strength of the Mutant Empire.
