Superman

Chapter 287: Unfortunate Childhood

The establishment of the Mutant Academy was promoted by Luke, who finally finalized the plan and passed the bill of Congress.

It is different from the private schools with bald professors in the future. It is a three-no education institution with no certificates, no qualifications, and no recognition by the federal government. It can be banned and closed at any time, and severe fines can be imposed.

This young college under SHIELD has strong teachers, complete certificates, and honorary school directors such as a beautiful principal and Superman.

If we really open enrollment, I'm afraid the threshold will be flattened.

If it weren't for the fact that the school only accepts mutants, the wealthy celebrities and upper-class elites would probably send their children there.

In the future, whether they are engaged in business or politics, they will all be regarded as students taught by Superman.

What?

You said Superman doesn't attend classes at all and is just an honorary school director?

That's not important, as long as we can build relationships.

This is just like many people going to prestigious schools to get gold, not for the purpose of studying hard and making progress every day.

Interpersonal communication and a sparkling personal resume are the real purpose.

Moreover, being from a prestigious school or going to the same school as a famous person will give you face when it comes to public speaking.

In American politics, there are always terms such as the "Harvard Clan" and the "Yale Clan".

The Supreme Court has nine top justices, all of whom came from Harvard and Yale law schools.

Many people have said that being president does not require a graduate from a prestigious school. If you want to become the Supreme Court Justice, you have to go to Columbia or Northwestern University instead of Harvard or Yale.

That's a bit off topic. Anyway, Superman set out to establish a mutant academy, which attracted a lot of attention.

"So, little Charles should be the best in this class?"

Luke leaned on the back seat of the car and closed the files that the White Queen had sorted and handed over.

They were on their way to Long Island, Manhattan, where the recently built Mutant Academy was located.

There used to be a private winery at the original address.

Later, it collapsed due to poor management.

SHIELD acquired it at a very low price and transformed it into a modern campus with proper features.

Speaking of which, the Mutant Academy is very close to Howard Stark's manor and can be considered neighbors.

If I have nothing to do in the future, I can still drop by.

"People with psychic abilities have always been rare. In addition, Charles is able to awaken his talent and master his abilities at such a young age. He is indeed a rare genius."

The White Queen tucked her fallen hair behind her ears and spoke softly.

Mutants' innate abilities mostly awaken in adolescence.

Intense emotions and rapid growth can easily activate the X gene in the body.

Talents can be awakened at a young age, and the strength is not too bad.

Just to name a few people, the Bald Professor, Magneto, Phoenix Grey, Mr. Fantastic's son Franklin...

All are big guys.

The worst is Alpha level.

"By the way, he also has a sister named Ruiwen, who is also a mutant."

The White Queen seemed to remember something and added.

"She can change her own cells and tissue structure. To put it simply, she can deform and become anyone's appearance, even things as subtle as irises and fingerprints."

Luke raised his eyebrows. The future Professor Charles and Mystique became his students.

Among the several elders of the mutants, only one, Magneto, did not appear.

Speaking of which, he had always felt that the bald professor was the template for the protagonist. He inherited his parents' inheritance at a young age and adopted an unrelated sister.

Both parents are dead, they have a car, a house, and a younger sister, and they fall in love with their gay friends...

More like the protagonist than himself!

"I read in the information that Charles Jr. was born into a wealthy family in New York. His father, Brian Xavier, was a scientist who later joined the business world and made a fortune."

Luke put away his divergent thinking and asked: "How can he accept that his son is a mutant? Or, to put it another way, how can he accept that his son enters a school specifically for recruiting mutants?"

This approach, to use an inappropriate analogy, is equivalent to a white elite sending his son to a black school.

There is no doubt that I will receive some strange looks and criticism.

Although in terms of legislation, Luke has begun to secretly promote the passage and implementation of the Mutant Registration Act, and is preparing to change public perceptions.

But this cannot be changed overnight, it takes time to achieve.

"I have done family visits and met little Charles' parents."

The White Queen is studying hard how to be a qualified principal.

Since she ran away from home, she has not had any serious career or career.

After joining the Hellfire Club, he followed Sebastian Xiao and shouted slogans every day to brainwash his compatriots.

It completely fails to give people a sense of satisfaction and self-identity.

Luke was able to hand over the management of the Mutant Academy to himself, and the White Queen was filled with gratitude.

That night, when I sat on it and shook my waist, I worked a lot harder.

"Little Charles' parents are relatively liberal, and they accepted their son's mutant identity very early."

The White Queen shook off the embarrassing image in her mind and continued: "That child is more mature and quiet than his peers. He has his own ideas and is also very smart."

"Adopting Ruiwen was also a decision he made after persuading his parents."

"He personally believes that the Mutant Academy is more suitable than an ordinary private middle school or an aristocratic school."

Luke nodded. A psychic like Charles Jr. can listen to hearts and read thoughts.

It couldn't be easier to guide other people's behavior.

What's more, he has always behaved like someone else's child, studying hard and being quiet and obedient.

Every tutor responsible for teaching little Charles will express the same emotion——

This is an out-and-out magical power, a genius!

"With completely different family backgrounds and childhood experiences, it's no wonder those two people will take opposite paths in the future."

Luke thought of the personal files he had just seen, and chuckled inwardly.

Born into a wealthy family in New York, Charles Jr. can be said to be a lucky man who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth.

Live in a mansion and castle in Westchester, with servants taking care of your daily life.

And his future good friend and little partner is Magneto Eric Lancel.

However, because of his Jewish identity, his family was persecuted, went to a concentration camp, and experienced the cruelty of war.

There is a saying that goes, "Unfortunate people are healed by childhood throughout their lives, and lucky people are healed by childhood throughout their lives."

It is really fitting to place it on the two leaders of mutants, Professor X and Magneto.

Magneto, who saw his mother die in front of him, saw and experienced racial persecution, brutal massacre and other tragedies in the world.

Naturally, it is difficult to understand Charles' pacifism and conservatism, which he dismissed as cowardice and weakness.

But Charles, who has a happy family and a happy life, can only sympathize with Magneto's tragic childhood, but cannot empathize with him.

This concept led to the subsequent division of mutants and the opposition between the two camps.

"How many students have you recruited this year?"

When Luke got down to business, he set out to build an academy. Not only did he want to give mutants a place to live, he also took into account the rapid changes in the future era.

Superheroes, alien races, evil organizations, cosmic crises...

These are the eternal themes in the Marvel universe.

Therefore, there is no harm in taking the first step and tightening the layout.

"There are thirty-one in total who meet the conditions."

The White Queen smiled helplessly.

There are difficulties in recruiting students. On the one hand, many families still have conservative ideas about mutants that they keep secret.

On the other hand, among the mutant population, about 30% of our compatriots have major genetic defects.

Either the appearance is different from ordinary people, or the ability is uncontrollable.

These do not meet the admissions requirements and will at most be transferred to medical institutions.

"Not bad, there will be more and more in the future."

Luke was quite satisfied. In his opinion, this wave of enrollment was quite successful in attracting the future bald professor and Mystique.

This is equivalent to drawing out two golden legends in ten consecutive waves.

"arrive."

Two iron doors opened backwards, and the car slowly drove into a vast private estate.

On the nameplate at the door, there are the words "Cavell Academy for Talented Youth".

That is the official name of the school to the outside world.
