The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 602 Change of Identity

On the outskirts of the former New York ruins, sturdy plants rise from the ground, far surpassing the ancient trees in the rainforest, making people think of those fantastical plants that only exist in human imagination.

These plants that are tightly connected to form a wall are Yang Le's masterpiece, but he is only the executor. The mastermind is naturally Magneto who is standing behind him and giving orders.

After Magneto came back last night, he urgently summoned all mutants who could fight, even including students led by Piotr.

No one knew what Magneto was going to do, but anyone could see that he had something important to announce, otherwise there would be no need to gather all the students together.

As expected, Magneto announced his alliance with Hyperion, which shocked all the mutants including Yang Le who had infiltrated them.

Magneto asked everyone to participate in the plan to capture superhumans, and he gave a high-sounding reason for this.

"This is all for our compatriots who are stranded abroad," Magneto sighed deeply. "Hyperion threatened me that if I didn't help him, he would deal with those mutants individually. Of course, he has the final say on how to deal with them."

"Do you remember those research institutes we destroyed? Those were all his father's work. I'm afraid he'll inherit his father's legacy."

As soon as these words came out, the mutants who were originally a little hesitant were furious, of course, their anger was directed at Hyperion.

"We can't hold it back any longer, Principal!" Card King clenched his fists. "Those guys will only push their luck."

Everyone else had the same idea, whether they were younger students or more mature adults. They were all united on this matter.

Even the usually eccentric Li Qianhuan was cheering, which showed how much damage those people from outside had caused to the mutants. The only person who could remain calm at the scene was probably Yang Le, an outsider.

No, there might be a Magneto who brings up the topic and fan the flames.

Yang Le frowned. The words just now did not sound like something Magneto would say. It was not something a leader should do to ignite everyone's emotions and talk openly about the hatred between mutants and humans in front of the children.

The Magneto just now was completely different from the previous Magneto.

Magneto raised his palm and pressed it down, and the room returned to silence again.

"It's not time yet, children," Magneto said kindly. "We still have our compatriots in their hands. For their safety, we can't act rashly. Once we have brought all our compatriots back, it will be time to settle accounts with them."

"I believe that day will not be too late."

Next, Magneto said a few inspiring words, pushing the emotions of all mutants to the highest point, and then he simply assigned the tasks and let everyone disperse.

Before leaving, Yang Le carefully observed the expressions of everyone. Because of his vegetative appearance, he didn't know where his eyes were. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was peeking openly.

Although everyone's expressions were different, it was not difficult to see that their emotions were all very high. It was obvious that they were all aroused by Magneto.

However, in Yang Le's opinion, this emotion is wrong. The seeds of hatred have secretly grown in the hearts of mutants. If this continues, humans and mutants will sooner or later become mortal enemies.

That was definitely not what Yang Le wanted to see. Whether it was a fight between two tigers or a clam, this kind of relentless struggle would not end well for either side. Could Yang Le intervene? The answer was yes, but he couldn't intervene directly.

Eternity had already told him that for beings of their level, wanting to change something was just a thought, but that was absolutely not right.

Yang Le certainly understood this truth. Everyone has his or her own life and they are not anyone's toys. It always reminds him that he should observe the universe with the mentality of an observer.

That day, Yang Le finally understood why Tian Xiaoban sealed up Superman X.

It is true that Yang Le can use X-Man to solve everything that happened, but that is no different from playing a game in cheat mode. Even if it changes everything, it will be meaningless.

Eternal reminded him that he should help these people as a guide instead of taking care of everything like a superhero, because it would be too exaggerated to regard him as a superhero.

Therefore, as the guide, Yang Le was looking for the key to breaking the deadlock and the person who could break the deadlock. As luck would have it, he really found it.

Like him, there was a calm figure among the angry crowd. She was observing her companions with a gaze that was difficult for ordinary people to notice. It was obvious that she had not fallen into Magneto's trap.

That person was none other than Iliana, the mysterious guest who had just returned from Limbo. Perhaps because of her upbringing, the intrigues and deceptions in hell could not bring her down, and the majesty accumulated by Magneto in the past could not affect her either.

She must have noticed something was wrong with Magneto and was about to find someone to talk to, but she found that everyone was in a frenzy, so she couldn't speak.

"It's you!" Yang Le nodded silently in his heart.

Because it was late at night, no one made a big fuss. They just gathered at the door for a while and then left.

Iliana returned to her room and sighed. She suddenly felt that Mutant Island might not be a good place to go. The meeting just now was like some kind of cult gathering. It could be said that Magneto was the only one who had the final say.

Iliana wanted to take her brother Piotr away, but the brother who was calm and dignified in her memory had also become one of those fanatics. Facing this somewhat unfamiliar brother, she really didn't know how to start.

"Tsk!" Iliana sat on the bed unhappily. She had already realized that Magneto's status in her brother's heart was almost the same as that of their father. If she raised questions at this time, she would probably only get a lecture.

At the same time, it may also arouse Magneto's suspicion, which is very disadvantageous to them.

Iliana couldn't help but rub her hair. Even in the most treacherous hell, she rarely used her brain. She usually just picked up the Soul Sword and chopped it down.

The time when she used her brain the most in hell was when she was studying.

Iliana, who was in a bad mood, couldn't help but look at the flowers outside the window, hoping that these beautiful plants would give her some ideas, but she saw a surprising scene.

A bunch of flowers in the bushes outside the window climbed up her windowsill like a snake and slowly crawled into her room.
