"Your city is well planned, but it is a bit small, much smaller than the city I imagined."

On the streets of the small Utopian city, Merlin looked at the houses on both sides of the street and the towers that conveyed energy. He told the storm girl Ororo who took him around:

"Your fiance is really generous, and it is so easy to share the energy transmission technology of Wakanda to the moderate variants."

"Because the number of first and second batches of mutants applying for utopia residence is not very large."

Ororo explained:

"A small city is enough to house them. When the number of people here exceeds 100,000, we will start the second phase of the expansion project. The professor said that he hopes that all variants living in Utopia will join this expansion. So that they can think of it as their real home."

"As for these energy towers..."

Ororo told Merlin:

"They don't use Wakanda's technology. I asked Surui to design an energy transmission system for us. It is far behind the technology used by Wakanda... But speaking of it, I feel that Su Rui recently Always avoiding me, is there something that the little girl is hiding from me and Techara?"

"Well, I don't know."

Merlin said blankly:

"She moved out of my house very early, and I have no idea what Her Royal Highness Princess Wakanda is doing, and honestly I don't care."

"Yes, you are promoted, and you must be busier."

Ororo glanced at the two meticulous agents in suits and sunglasses that followed Merlin. She said:

"There are bodyguards, Merlin, you are really a big man now."

"Her Majesty is said to be a great man, should I feel honored?"

Merlin pushed his glasses, he said softly:

"I generally don't run around like Fury and show my head. As for these two agents, they are only performing their duties. Although I don't need them to protect,... it is always a good thing to be loyal to the duty."

He said to Ororo:

"There is one more thing. I heard Lorna say that the professor is going to move Xavier College to Utopia. Will the school in New York be closed? This means that I will take my sister home on the weekend. Going across half a world?"

"No, it's not that exaggerated, Merlin."

Ororo shook his head, and she explained:

"The professor only intends to send senior students to Utopia. Here, several tactical training grounds that simulate the actual combat environment will be built to improve their level of manipulation of their own strength. It is also much quieter than the bustling New York City. Those Adolescent children will be more suitable here, at least they will not think of sneaking out to play every day."

"Children as old as Ruiwen and Lorna will continue to stay in New York, and the college there will become a branch campus on the mainland. Of course, just like Utopia College, Xavier College will officially start the next quarter. Enrolling children of age-appropriate mutants on a scale."

"It's okay."

Merlin nodded and said to Ororo:

"But don't forget to register...Every mutant who enters the academy needs to register information with SHIELD, which is what we said."

"I really don't understand why the professor promised you this request."

Storm Girl said:

"How is this different from the Mutant Registration Act?"

"Of course, Ororo."

Merlin said softly:

"One is active, one is passive, one is good intentions, one is malicious, one is for protection, and the other is for persecution."

"The two exist in the same form, but the starting point and meaning are diametrically opposed."

He said to Ororo:

"At least you don’t have to worry about us proactively releasing information about those children to the outside world. On the contrary, if they want, then after they grow up, SHIELD will help them find a job and gain a foothold in the society if they don’t dislike it. , The positions of SHIELD will also open the door to them."

"At least S.D.O.L.D. needs the power of mutants."

Merlin looked at the pier at the end of this street in the Utopian town. He said:

"I believe that with our efforts, the gap between ordinary people and mutants will eventually disappear completely, and we will become one. This is the need for order and what we must do. However, at this stage, the gap is still Exists, so we have to take some precautions."

"Ah hey, don't touch me, I just want to interview... don't push me!"

There was a loud noise behind Merlin and Ororo. When they looked back, they saw that the agent behind Merlin was shoving a young reporter. The camera behind the latter had been shooting, and it seemed that he was going to do something.

Merlin recognized the reporter, Eddie Bullock. Wasn't this the stunned youth who interviewed him at the ghost base last time?

"Let him come."

Merlin waved his hands, and the agents responsible for protecting him immediately gave way. Eddie glared at the indifferent agent next to him, then grabbed his microphone from the other guy and adjusted his collar. To Merlin.

The latter said to him very gently:

"I know that you journalists always like to add fuel and vinegar, and fan the flames, but please believe me, my subordinates are not intentionally embarrassing you, they are just performing their duties..."

"It doesn't matter, I just want to interview the two."

Eddie didn't seem to care, he poked the microphone in front of Merlin and said to Merlin:

"Will this gentleman, what do you think about the fact that the mutants have built their own city?"

"This is good, this is great, which shows that the mutants are beginning to replace the individual thinking with the wisdom of the group. They will become a whole and try to integrate into human society and become a member of a common civilization.

Merlin pushed his glasses and said flatly:

"Of course, I know that what you want to hear is definitely not this, so I say something you want to hear."

"The gap between mutants and humans has not been eliminated. The establishment of utopia is only the first step in contact between the two sides. You and I can expect that no matter whether they are among us or us, many people do not want to see peace. Coming, whether it is out of vigilance, jealousy, or disgust with the previous friction, the dispute will not stop."

"But fortunately, there are people in both camps who are working for true peace. I mean, as long as you media don't fan the flames, everything will be fine."

Speaking of which, Merlin looked at Eddie and he said:

"Are you satisfied?"

Eddie looked back at the cameraman, who made an OK gesture to Eddie, so Eddie turned his head and said to Merlin:

"Okay, thank you, but you are wrong, not all reporters are as irresponsible as you said."

Watching Eddie leave, Merlin reached out and took off his glasses, took out the handkerchief, wiped the lens, and put it on his eyes. Beside him, Ororo asked with some surprise:

"Don't you hate these reporters before? How do you take the initiative to interview now?"

"When he approached me, the live signal was cut off."

Merlin pushed his glasses indifferently. He said:

"The footage stored in that camera has also been deleted, and this unlucky reporter's interview with me will never succeed."

"Let's go, the professor and the director are still waiting for us."

————————————————————————

Merlin and Orolo found the professor and Fury on the dock. The professor was surrounded by a group of reporters. He poked dozens of microphones in front of his wheelchair. The reporters stared wide and their ears were raised. Always pay attention to the professor's speech, and want to find some details that can trigger the explosion.

It's like a temporary, small press conference.

Eddie Brock, who had just interviewed Merlin, was also among them. His assistant replaced a new camera. It seems that the data of the previous camera has been deleted.

But the professor has experienced too many things, and the scene in front of him does not dispel at all. The old man sits in a wheelchair and speaks slowly, looking very candid, but listen carefully, it is just like when he toured all over the world before. The set of theories, the description of the same origin of humans and mutants, as well as the future cooperation prospects of the two sides, beautiful blueprints and so on.

"It seems that more people are concerned about this matter than we thought."

Merlin walked to a small cafe on the street and sat across from the low-key coffee-free Fury. He said to Fury:

"Look at these reporters, these media, the whole world is paying attention to this matter."

"Don't worry about them."

Fury was not worried at all, he said:

"High-speed information exchange is a feature of this era. It makes the whole world more closely connected than all previous eras. However, in this era, no major event can always occupy people’s eyes and ears. I dare say that up to 3 After the month, no one will take the initiative to mention the utopia... this kind of event without any gimmicks cannot attract ordinary people’s attention for a long time."

"As for those reporters..."

Fury glanced at the reporters gathered on the dock, he said softly:

"They don't have to worry about it anymore. The era of self-proclaimed uncrowned kings is long over. What if they have published some eye-catching reports from the bloggers? The truth is always boring, and what people want to see is not true."

"People now...as long as you say smallpox, they will believe everything."

"Ok."

Merlin nodded.

As a special agent chief who has led S.D.O.L.D for a long time, he also has a say in this.

For a while, rumors about vampires circulated in New York, and even almost caused panic, but when Merlin found several biologists, he talked nonsense on several popular talk shows. Linking vampires to certain conditions that are afraid of light and blood, and some sensational reports through several lace tabloids, but after very entertaining news, the fear of vampires in the city quickly decreased.

People always like people and clouds, and like to figure out the mystery of things from their own perspective, but it is a pity that, as Fury said, as long as they satisfy their inner quest for wonder and lively desire, the truth is nothing. unimportant.

"Look! Those mutants are here."

Ten minutes later, Merlin turned his head and saw a white passenger ship moving slowly towards Utopia Island beyond the pier not far away.

Just like the immigration ship “Mayflower” that carried the Puritans hundreds of years ago, the ship was loaded with the first mutants who had emigrated to Utopia.

Most of them are mutants whose body mutations lead to a normal life in human society, and most of them are old and weak and sick, but the professor and his students do not care.

Those mutants who have the ability to feed themselves have their own lives in human society, and professors and SHIELD have no intention of forcibly separating them from human society. For people who can’t live on their own.

It is a large rear, not necessarily all mutants have to come here to live, but after its establishment, the mutants have a common home.

No matter what their status is in modern society, and regardless of their high-end social status, they will all have a common home.

This is the first step in the unity of the loose civilized group of mutants, and the most important step.

"Hey, there really is a feeling that immigrants embark on the New World."

Merlin and Fury stood side by side at the window of the small cafe, watching the immigrants step on the pier with the help of the X-Men. A flash of light.

Although this scene is somewhat pretentious, it still makes many elderly variants come to watch the tears.

"Someone suggested that 2003 be called the first year of the mutants."

Merlin watched the hot comments on the ritual on the Internet through Icarus and said to Fury:

"There are still many people who have initiated a proposal, and they asked for the award of this year’s Nobel Peace Prize to Professor Charles...Look, our professor has many fans in human society."

"Charles Francis Xavier, he is a sign, a very important sign."

Fury put his hands on his back and slowly said to Merlin:

"The bridge between mutants and humans, he deserves this title, as long as the professor is still there, we will always have room for conversation between the mutants, so we have to protect him, Merlin, he will be with us Pushing mutants into the world...this is the really great thing."

"Ok."

Merlin nodded and was about to speak. A communication request from the ghost base appeared on Icarus's lens. Merlin connected the phone and only listened to it, and his expression changed.

He turned and said to Fury:

"I have something important...I have to leave first."

"what's up?"

Fury asked:

"You will have to speak on behalf of Pierce later."

"Let Hill go for me."

Merlin pulled out his wand and he said to Fury:

"It's a very important thing. It's something I've been following for several years...Remember the empty "Seventh Zone" of the Ministry of Defense?"

Fury's expression also changed, and Merlin looked at him and said softly:

"I found the real "Seventh District"."
