Warhammer: Expedition to the Multiverse from 30k

Only when Raven snuggled in Eric's arms did Charles feel the pain in his heart.

Riven was sulking at her brother for not hesitating and introducing herself to a strange man as a commentator.

She was secretly annoyed that Charles was so passionate about other women, but always ignored her.

Obviously, as long as she wanted, Riven could become any woman, any man in the world, even a non-human.

Accompanied by Charles and Raven, Luo Xi strolled through the well-planned estate of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.

There is also a huge lake in the manor. The blue water waves reflect the color of the sky, making it seem extremely peaceful and comfortable.

Among the three people in the group, Charles was obsessed with trying to persuade Roche to invest more sponsorship;

And Roche was thinking about how to extract more benefits from mutants and use the incredible existence of the X gene for his own benefit;

As for the accompanying Mystique Raven, all she could think about was why her good brother didn't like her.

The brother-con was determined to conquer his brother, but Charles completely ignored her and tried his best but failed to win.

Although Charles was unwilling to use his telepathic ability to directly investigate Roche's background, he still used his language skills and psychological knowledge to try to find out Roche's background and true thoughts.

Roche had a pleasant conversation with the young Professor X. No matter what topic he raised, the other party was able to answer fluently and even put forward his own unique opinions.

However, Luo Xi's performance was flawless. Apart from revealing that he was from the East and had an extraordinary background, he did not reveal any useful information.

Riven couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed, because with her knowledge and experience, she couldn't get a word in between the two of them.

And she bet, with her keen female intuition, that the handsome and mysterious oriental man in front of her seemed to be more interested in Charles than herself.

Even if he looked at her with a slightly special look, it was not a man's appreciation of a woman, but more like a kind of surprise and shock at the Creator's masterpiece.

"These days are really weird. Don't men like women anymore?" Raven complained in her heart, staring at Charles with resentment.

This made Riven doubt her own charm again and wonder why these men ignored her.

"Professor Charles, I wonder what you think about the mutant issue?" Luo Xi asked casually as he strolled by the lake, the cool breeze blowing across his face.

"I don't know what specific aspect you are referring to?" Charles did not rush to answer, but first looked at Luo Xi's true intention.

"Haha, you don't need to be nervous. I have no ill will towards mutants." Luo Xi also saw the defensiveness and caution in the other party's words. It was obvious that he had already doubted Luo Xi's purpose.

Charles, who is well versed in human psychology, is certainly not a naive person. He would not believe a stranger who suddenly appears and is very enthusiastic about the development of mutants.

Especially since this stranger has a powerful background, is also extremely mysterious and elusive.

If Roxie is unwilling to reveal the truth, Charles will still accept his sponsorship, but he will not really hand over the details of the Mutant Academy to him.

There is no such thing as a free lunch. If there is, it must be poisonous.

"I've learned about your special group, professor. The name 'mutant' itself carries connotations of discrimination and prejudice.

The only difference between you and ordinary humans is that there is an extra gene called X in your genome."

"Some people think it's a disease, while others think it's a genetic pollution. Therefore, the existence of mutants has always been opposed by the human world, but I'm different."

Luo Xi's words made the light in Charles' eyes brighter and brighter.

The fact that he could express such insights undoubtedly proved that Luo Xi did have an extremely deep understanding and research on the mutant group.

Especially the sentence "The name of mutants itself is discrimination and prejudice" touched the hearts of Charles and Raven, making them secretly happy.

Riven, who was following the two of them like a follower, looked at Luo Xi with a softer and more pleasing look, and even developed a lot of good feelings towards him in her heart.

A girl’s likes and dislikes are simple. She thinks whoever treats her well is good.

Charles was extremely lucky; at least his supernatural powers did not show any outward manifestation.

His handsome and elegant appearance is very popular among many female groups. Professor Charles can be described as a playboy who is a playboy.

But Riven is different. Although she can change into the appearance of any human, she herself knows that those are just disguises.

Her true appearance is actually a "monster" with blue scaly skin, brown-red hair, and yellow lenses.

Except for some groups with abnormal sexual fetishes, most people would be shocked and scream in amazement, and feel disgusted and terrified after seeing Riven's true appearance.

This is human instinct. We instinctively like those who are similar to ourselves, but when they are too similar but also too different, we will feel an instinctive fear.

This is called the "uncanny valley effect."

Compared to Mystique, who can disguise herself by transforming, many mutants who have undergone flesh and blood mutations are in greater pain.

They grew hair, sharp claws, and even scales, which was basically equivalent to social death.

Charles' attitude was more sincere. It would be great if more people could understand what Luo Xi said.

"I couldn't agree more with you, Mr. Roche."

"You are a rare wise person who can go beyond what others say."

"Mutants are a stigmatizing term. Perhaps we should come up with a more neutral term to describe our growing group."

"After all, according to my research, with the advent of the nuclear energy age, the emergence of mutants has shown an upward trend due to the influence of radiation."

There was less politeness in Charles' tone and more recognition from the bottom of his heart.

Luo Xi looked at the mutants in front of him and couldn't help but think of the "mutants" in the Warhammer universe.

Those mutants who live at the bottom of the hive, whose bodies are severely mutated and whose genes are contaminated, are absolutely excluded.

Even in the eyes of ordinary mortals, they are symbols of filth and hideous and abominable creatures.

The sources of mutants are very wide. The influence of different planetary environments, radiation pollution, remnants of ancient genetic modifications, subspace pollution, etc. can all create mutants.

Even in a sacred place like the Queen of Glory-class battleship, the offspring born from the union of crew members, known as the Children of the Void, are also a type of mutant with a subtle identity.

Perhaps they didn't want to do this, but the Warhammer universe has never been about fairness and justice.

They are born this way. Even if the Empire does not deliberately eliminate mutants, it will use these people as the cheapest slaves and cannon fodder.

"Compared to those mutants in the Warhammer universe who are as lowly as dust, the situation of mutants in the X-Men universe is already a paradise." Luo Xi couldn't help but sigh.

"At least they are only being discriminated against and treated unfairly. They have not been subjected to large-scale targeted massacres, nor have they been captured to be used as experimental subjects or cannon fodder in wars."

"Moreover, these mutants may awaken powerful mutant abilities. Some of them are even naturally more powerful than the psychic think tanks who have undergone countless hard training and mental tempering and were selected from hundreds of millions of humans."

Although both have the name of mutants, their destinies are completely different.

"Mr. Luo Xi, your understanding of our group is really very detailed. There are even many aspects that even I am not very clear about."

"In this area, I really lack people and partners with whom I can communicate. I feel honored to meet you today."

Charles praised sincerely. Now he felt that even if Luo Xi didn't sponsor him a penny, his friendly attitude and deep understanding of mutants alone would make him a guest of honor in the academy.

In fact, rather than financial sponsorship, Charles hopes that more conscientious and influential public figures can stand up and speak out for them.

A lie told a thousand times becomes the truth, and slander told a thousand times becomes an ironclad fact.

"According to my research and opinion, the origin of mutants comes from genetic mutation."

"It is the power of mutation, a fascinating mutation. It is mutation that allows humans to have different eyes, one blue and one green."

"It was mutations that transformed us from single-celled organisms into the dominant reproductive organisms on the planet today. Countless mutations and natural selection have brought us humans to where we are today."

"How wonderful, how great! If there had been no mutation, this blue planet might still be lifeless."

Charles carries a romantic bloodline, which can be seen not only from the fact that he gave up his affluent upper-class aristocratic life and chose to speak for the mutant community.

When he began to explain his ideas, he had the passionate emotion of reciting poetry.

"Humans are born from mutations. Every generation of humans is likely to undergo endless changes in form. I believe that the birth of mutants is one of these wonderful changes in form."

"Mutated and proud." Charles said in a loud voice.

Luo Xi couldn't help but applaud Charles's speech. If this guy was born in the empire, relying on his eloquence and psychic power, he might become a great mortal auxiliary army general.

Machado's Ministry of the Interior also needs such talents.

He could imagine how strong the combat effectiveness and cohesion would be if an entire army brainwashed by Charles Xavier burst out.

Or to put it another way, he is a walking stamp of thought.

“I don’t want to arrogantly claim that mutants are the future direction of human evolution, but since they exist, they must have a meaning.

But now human society is extremely ostracizing our group, which is actually a very short-sighted approach.”

Charles sighed with some emotion. If he had a choice, he would like to achieve mutual trust and cooperation with national officials to explore the secrets of mutant talents together.

But unfortunately, those officials are not so aware. They just regard mutants as monsters that may pose a threat to national security.

"Mr. Luo Xi represents the other side of the sea?" Charles suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked tentatively.

In his opinion, this was a very reasonable explanation. After all, in this era, Orientals were not the protagonists of the world, and there were only a few forces that could be guessed.

Luo Xi still had a mysterious smile on his face, neither admitting nor denying.

He knew that Charles in front of him thought he was from the Pacific Ocean, but he was actually from the Sea of ​​Souls.

The Sea of ​​Souls should also be considered a sea, right?

However, no answer was also an answer, and Charles immediately understood.

Although in this era, due to the conflict between camps, it is naturally impossible for the Lighthouse to have any good propaganda for the enemy camp, but Charles, as a member of the upper class, naturally knows some inside information.

He knew that the miracles created by the group of people on the other side of the sea were breathtaking.

The mutant community needs a strong enough backer.

Since Charles inherited the family business and became a member of the upper class, he has come to understand one thing: if you want to make it in life, it’s your background that counts.

Even if some mutants have extremely strong fighting power, their fate as people without brains and background is to be used as guns.

As long as mutants need to gain a foothold in human society and cannot become independent and autonomous from the overall production and social relations, they will never be able to leave ordinary people.

Can mutants produce their own food? Can they produce their own industrial products? Can they establish so many colorful entertainment industries?

Without a society composed of ordinary people, mutants will only become a group of ever-degenerating savage animals.

After seeing all this, Charles racked his brains to find a way to integrate mutants into human society. He knew that the outcome of opposing ordinary humans would be death.

Mutants do not have the ability and size to replace humans.

"I'm just a traveler, Charles. I can see the potential of mutants. Your talents should not be squandered or wasted casually, because it will be a great loss to you and mankind."

"I hope to turn your talents into tangible wealth, the common wealth of mankind."

Charles keenly sensed a strange feeling from Luo Xi's tone...
