Chapter 515 Joining the Regulators
Listening to Zhang Ye's question, Emma was silent for a while. Maybe she didn't expect that Zhang Ye would suddenly ask this question.
After a pause, Emma smiled softly.
"Red Skull did invite me to help him, and I did go. To be honest, I did want to help him at that time. After all, I didn't dare to bet on the future of mutants.
I don’t know if you have understood that since Magneto was killed by cunning humans, mutants have been retaliated by many people. Even the Red Skull is secretly controlling the living space of mutants.
In order to protect my compatriots, I got married to Dr. Doom, the Doomed One, and enlisted his support. Only then did I find a place for mutants to survive in the wasteland.
But it's not enough. I'm not sure if anyone in the wasteland can overthrow the Red Skull. If you fail and the mutants don't take sides, do you know what the consequences will be. "
"I understand that Red Skull will not let you go." Zhang Yi said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Skeleton will not let us go. Even with the support of Doctor Doom, he will attack mutants. In other words, he has already done so."
Emma turned to look at the sunset outside the window, her eyes full of sadness.
"For more than forty years, the number of mutants has plummeted to double digits, and is even continuing to decrease, and no new mutants have ever been born on earth. Do you know how much this means to us? Is it painful?
Originally, I thought this was just a joke played by nature on us. We used to say that mutants were a part of human evolution, but at that time, I only regarded this as a joke.
What a part of evolution, it's just a stage in life. I once thought that mutants would end in our generation, until you overthrew Hydra and disclosed all the information about Hydra."
Listening to Emma's story, Zhang Yi made no attempt to interrupt her.
It was not Zhang Yi who disclosed all the information about Hydra, but the Blood Baron's backstabbing of the Red Skull at the most critical moment.
When the Blood Baron knew that Zhang Yi had the upper hand and that the Red Skull's defeat was certain, he immediately chose to stand firmly on Zhang Yi's side and began to beat the fallen dog through the Hydra network.
Among the public information about Hydra, many of them are human experiments carried out in various Hydra strongholds, as well as the oppression and control of the people.
The most critical one is to contaminate food with chemical substances to curb the birth of mutant genes. Anyone who eats this food will not give birth to children carrying positive mutant genes.
In fact, these foods are particularly harmful to mutants. Many mutants have eaten these foods all year round, and their mutant abilities have become increasingly uncontrollable.
Wolverine's self-healing factor, Emma's diamond transformation, and almost all mutant abilities have been affected to a certain extent, which has also made mutants lonely to this point.
"I want to thank you, Zhang Yi. Really, if it weren't for you, mutants might have completely disappeared from this world. It was you who saved my tribe."
Emma shifted her gaze to Zhang Yi and said seriously.
"Don't say that, this is not my fault alone." Zhang Yi took two steps forward and came to Emma.
"I am serious. I understand my situation very well. For so many years, I have just been holding on for a breath. Now I can see that the mutant community has found hope, and I can also go back to school. I have no regrets in this life. ”
Speaking of this, Emma stared at Zhang Yi closely. "The next step is up to you."
Seeing Emma's appearance, Zhang Yi shook his head slightly.
"Do you just want to leave these students alone? Logan is not a person who can be a good principal. Luther has made many reports to me. I don't feel at ease without you watching."
Hearing this, Emma showed a wry smile. "I have fulfilled my wish. No matter how hard I try, it will only hold them back. I don't want to be a burden to the students."
"Don't worry, I will solve this problem." Zhang Yi said.
Emma was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and a glimmer of hope seemed to flash in her eyes, but it soon dimmed again.
"It's useless. I know my body well. My life span is over. I've run out of fuel. Raven can't do anything about it. Even the gods have longevity. How can I break free from this bondage?" .”
"Lifespan is just a limitation within the universe. As long as you jump out of this timeline and let time flow through your body, then naturally you don't have to worry about lifespan."
Zhang Yi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled. "Don't forget how that old wolf Logan returned to his youth overnight. If I can change him, I can naturally change you."
"Really?!" Emma opened her mouth and stared at Zhang Yi intently.
She had never thought that someone could transcend life and death. Although in her mind, a god-like being like Zhang Yi would not worry about lifespan, she could not even think about keeping herself young forever. Things to think about.
Emma didn't know much about Logan. When Logan was persuaded by Star-Lord and Barton to leave the mountain, Emma was still in the mutant camp.
The two met when Luther was rebuilding the wasteland. Because Luther wanted to manage issues related to mutants at the time, so on Barton's recommendation, Luther found Wolverine and let them handle it on their own. .
In fact, Emma and Wolverine haven't met each other for a long time, and they only heard some rumors occasionally.
So when Emma saw Wolverine, she was very envious that Logan still maintained his youthful appearance. Of course, she didn't think much about it. After all, it was not news that Logan was a longevity species.
But now after hearing Zhang Ye's words, Emma realized that Logan had not always maintained his youthful appearance at all, but had returned to his heyday with Zhang Ye's help.
"Can I really change back to my younger self?" Emma asked with a trembling voice.
"Of course, the members of the Regulators are not eroded by time. As for rejuvenation, I believe Tony Stark's newly manufactured equipment can help us solve this problem." Zhang Yi smiled.
Zhang Yi's main purpose of coming to Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters this time was still for the White Queen.
After learning that the mutant population in the wasteland had the potential to thrive again, Zhang Yi had the idea of preserving the older generation of X-Men.
Wolverine alone is not enough. Before the younger generation has grown up, the remaining older mutants in the wasteland must support the children.
For this reason, Zhang Yi came up with the idea of pulling White Queen Emma into the supervisor.
As the White Queen said, she was nearing the end of her life at this time, and the string that had been tight all year round was suddenly broken after the reconstruction of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.
As soon as she was relieved, Emma's life passed suddenly faster. If she had come a little later, she would probably be able to catch up with the meal.
"I, I really don't know what to say." Emma stretched out her hand tremblingly. Seeing this, Zhang Yi hurried forward to grab it.
Looking at the smooth and white palm, one can feel the skin covering the bones after taking it.
"Why don't you just say - I'm glad to join the supervisor, how about it?" Zhang Yi patted Emma's hand gently, and his mood relaxed a lot.
He was worried just now that Emma would get excited and pass away, which would be troublesome, but now it seems that Emma, who has experienced many storms and waves, has good mental endurance.
Feeling the temperature of Zhang Yi's palm, Emma spread her telepathy and showed her true face in front of Zhang Yi.
"I'm delighted to be joining the Regulators."
