Chapter 437: Crisis?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In Egypt, an ancient evolver woke up. His name was En Shaba Nur, an ancient Egyptian tyrant. The people’s resistance ended his rule, but now he woke up again, and his unparalleled ability made him fearless.

Agent McTeague was now working at the X-Men headquarters. The relationship between her and Charles had been complicated. The two of them liked each other, but Raven had been stuck in it, making it difficult for the two of them to get to the last step.

Now she was investigating what was going on here and knew nothing about what was going to happen to the U.S. X-Men.

William Stryker obtained the video recording of Eric’s massacre and began the follow-up operation. The various media and news organizations received the information, and then the overwhelming coverage drowned people’s eyes and ears. Everyone looked at the report in panic.

Compared to ordinary people, Evolvers are mysterious and terrifying because they are powerless to resist, even with guns. Some Evolvers are very powerful, and people are afraid when they are powerless.

Now, the consequences of the exposure of this information were to dig out the fear in people’s hearts. Wesley was still experimenting. He had to make necessary preparations for the parallel space travel operation that he was about to start. He knew nothing about the outside world, and even if he did, he would not pay much attention to it. He would clean up after everyone had jumped out.

The information that the Extreme Agent had passed on to him had been backed up. Wesley didn’t have time to deal with it now, and there was a lot going on in the outside world. A large number of civilians had taken to the streets to start parades, and the cases that X-Men had handled in the past had been dug up. The unfair way they had been handled had caused the conflict to explode.

Although there are a lot of Evolvers now, they are not as many as there will be in the future, so they are still in a weak position and it is difficult for them to fight against the outside world. Charles is sitting in the office in a panic. He has some health problems and now he can’t care about them. X-Men General Headquarters is now on the verge of danger.

“Director, the people from the Central Intelligence Agency are here. They need us to cooperate with the investigation.” At this time, Raven pushed the door open and entered. She was now acting as Charles’s secretary so that she could ruin Charles and McTaggert’s plan.

“Okay, let them in,” Charles said with a nod.

Then a group of big men in suits walked in. “Director Charles Xavier. We are ordered to investigate the massacre of the deputy director of X-Men. We asked him to come out and assist our investigation.”

“Sure, X-Men will cooperate with your investigation.” Charles picked up the phone and called Eric’s office directly. “Eric, come to my office.”

After Eric returned, he had been in low spirits. He was thinking about the future of Evolution. After receiving Charles’s call, he was ready to talk to Charles. However, when he entered, he found that there seemed to be a little too many people here. Some unfamiliar faces appeared here.

“Eric, these people are from the Central Intelligence Agency. They need to investigate the video that is circulating outside now. You accompany their investigation and explain things clearly.”

“Investigate? Investigate what? What right do they have to investigate me?” Eric said angrily.

“Eric, it’s all over the news now. People need a reasonable explanation,” Charles said earnestly.

“Explain, we still need an explanation. Why did someone use evolvers to conduct experiments? Who gave them the right? Our investigation hasn’t even begun, why did they come to investigate us first?” Eric said, completely opposing ordinary people and evolvers. He spoke ambiguously, but that’s what he thought. In his mind, ordinary people doing experiments on evolvers is a felony.

“Mr. Deputy Director, please cooperate with our investigation. I have orders from the Intelligence Oversight Committee.” The Central Intelligence Agency has always been at odds with the X-Men General Administration. Their previous director was fired for encouraging the attack.

“Don’t even think about it. Our investigation is still ongoing. You’re investigating me at this time? Do you have a guilty conscience?” Eric retorted.

Charles was having a headache. “Eric, we’re a government agency. Everything has to be done according to procedure. Just make things clear to them. The investigation on our side won’t stop. I’ll be personally in charge.”

“Okay, I believe you. I’ll talk to them first, but the investigation must not be terminated. I want to know who dared to do it.” Eric still suppressed his anger. He left with the Central Intelligence Agency and Charles picked up the phone directly. He asked for Wesley.

However, he was disappointed. Wesley was not at G Group headquarters but at the General Laboratory. G Group promised Charles to contact them as soon as possible. Charles put down the phone and shouted to Logan.

“Things are very bad now. I need to get out of the dam as soon as possible. You can do it.”

“Sure, I’ll bring people to investigate. I’ll also ask the captured evolvers, but you’d better ask the extreme agents for help. They are better at investigating intelligence.”

“I see.” Charles picked up the conversation again and called their neighbor, Extreme Agent.

Extreme agents began to move out. They spread out and began to look for clues, and Deadpool was their best target. However, Deadpool seemed to have disappeared and was never seen again. Then they had to reassign William Stryker, who was in charge of Project X Weapons. It was obvious that he was involved.

Eric was taken to the Central Intelligence Agency, and the interrogation began. Eric told them what had happened. He didn’t hide it, but he told them the truth. But this was troublesome. After all, he belonged to a government agency and knew something about the law. But Eric had always done things his way and had always been dismissive.

As a law enforcer, he knew that he was breaking the law. If the other party resisted, he could fight back. However, if the other party surrendered, he would still slaughter them. This was a crime, and his confession became evidence.

“What? Hold me? Accuse me of murder? Are you crazy? I killed animals. How did they treat evolved people?” Eric roared.

“Even if they deserve to die, you can’t execute them. You have the right.” Naturally, the Central Intelligence Agency would not be polite to him. They wanted to put on handcuffs and take them away, but Eric would never go to prison. He directly used his ability.

The Central Intelligence Agency did not expect him to resist. Moreover, there was a deliberate relationship between them. They deliberately gave him a chance to resist and did not use metal isolation. Eric fought his way out of the Central Intelligence Agency without any obstruction. When Charles received the news, he knew that it was over.
