Chapter 160: Is Mutant A Human?
Chapter 160: Is Mutant A Human?
The sky was green.
Cloudless.
There are two white camels advancing slowly in the long yellow sand.
"Do you really know witchcraft? Oh my God! That's incredible. You just said a word, and then the raging wind and sand stopped!" Evelin was riding on one of the white camels. This is the sixty-eighth time I have asked Chu Mu repeatedly to verify the same question.
Start with them.
About every ten minutes.
Evelin would ask Chu Mu with almost the same exclamation tone.
As a woman whose academic qualifications reached an extremely high level during World War II, Evelin had always believed in the supremacy of science in the first half of her life. Whether it was the teachers at school or the knowledge she had learned, they all told Evelin that there would be no supernatural events in this world, and that there must be reasons behind all the unknowns that could be explained by science.
However.
Until Evelin met Chu Mu, she saw with her own eyes that the wind and sand that were still raging all over the sky disappeared in Chu Mu's words.
Is this scientific?
Very unscientific!
No matter what kind of scientific theory, it could not explain such a phenomenon. Evelin, who felt that her world view had been subverted, felt that the world suddenly became dreamy.
How she wanted to hear Chu Mu tell her that what happened before was just a coincidence, so as to maintain her harmonious worldview of scientific supremacy.
"If you can't accept what I said before, then I'll put it another way. Maybe it's because I'm handsome, so this desert responds to my needs?"
"Didn't you say before that even if I am handsome, Desert will not show mercy to me, so obviously your statement is wrong.
Chu Mu also rides on a white camel.
This is a camel that he spent several gold bricks to purchase. Not only is it larger in endurance and physique than ordinary camels, but the white camel also has a lucky meaning in the desert.
It only cost a little gold, not to mention buying a very strong camel, which can also add some charm, so it is not a big expense for Chu Mu.
On the other hand, the native Egyptian who sold camels claimed that the white camel was the god they believed in, but in the end, his faith could not withstand the impact of six gold bricks. This belongs to the power of money, which is indeed a bit embarrassing.
Chu Mu was also a little helpless about having to ride a camel through the desert. Although he could look around the entire desert world when he flew into the sky, he could not determine the location of Hamna Tower, the city of the dead. There are no shortage of secrets and knots.
He couldn't hold Evelin and fly in the sky. Let's not talk about whether Evelin was willing or not. From the information he provided to Evelin, Evelin could only fly on the ground based on various references. Things, carefully identify the direction and location.
If she were flying in the sky, Evelin would probably be no more than a headless fly. A living dictionary in the desert is not a living dictionary in the sky.
"You are so shameless..." Evelin admitted that Chu Mu was indeed handsome, but the statement that the desert also looked at Chu Mu's handsomeness in a different light made her couldn't help but roll her eyes. This girl has a pair of beautiful eyes that seem to be able to speak.
Therefore, even if she is rolling her eyes, her exotic and exquisite face looks full of picturesque charm.
"Thank you for your compliment. Everyone who knows me praises me so much." Chu Mu's smile remained unchanged, and her tone was full of relaxation.
The camel was moving forward slowly. He was idle anyway, and teasing Evelin, an old-fashioned girl, was also a pleasure.
"You necromancers... do you need to eat children to increase your magic power?" Evelin suddenly thought of the legend somewhere.
She asked Chu Mu abruptly.
Chu Mu was stunned.
Eat children?
What the hell is this!
"How many times do I have to answer you... That's not witchcraft, it's just some special abilities. Also, I don't eat people."
Chu Mu couldn't help but emphasized again.
"I know, you have explained it, but in my opinion, the special ability you are talking about is mysterious witchcraft. Aren't teachers also born with it?"
"Maybe it's because of genes, or maybe it's because of some mysteries of life that allow you to have abilities that we ordinary people can't imagine?"
Evelin spoke seriously. Her final stubbornness was her attempt to classify the so-called "witchcraft" as an unknown science that could be summarized by science.
To some extent.
The girl's statement wasn't entirely wrong.
only.......
"That's what you're talking about called a Mutant."
Chu Mu looked helpless.
He even regretted showing his ability in front of Evelin and Jonathan.
The original intention of the grazing ban was just to be able to set off a little earlier, but I really didn't expect that it would cause such a big reaction from Evelin.
It can only be said that compared with the future time and space, there are not so many supernatural events in this time and space now. As intellectuals, the acceptance of such things is probably a bit low. If it were the future Marvel universe, everyone would be amazed at the power of those with super abilities.
Even scientists are not surprised by people with super abilities.
"What is a Mutant?"
Evelin heard a brand-new vocabulary from Chu Mu's mouth, and she opened her eyes wide and asked questions like a diligent student.
Two people's camels were traveling side by side... Yes, there were only two people. Jonathan, the habitual thief, was left in that small town by Chu Mu using some "little tricks".
For an ordinary person to suddenly develop a severe cold, for an extraordinary being like Chu Mu, it is just a matter that can be affected by a thought.
Although Jonathan was very sure that Chu Mu was causing trouble, he had no evidence and dared not argue with Chu Mu. He could only make his final insistence while shivering under a quilt - after finding the cauldron, he must be 50-50. Chu Mu and Evelin gave Evelin instructions no less than twenty times before setting off.
Both siblings seemed to have the habit of repeating the same behavior... Evelin didn't like gold, but she still agreed to Jonathan perfunctorily. As for whether the gold will be brought back to Jonathan, this is probably an obvious situation.
"Mutants are just like what you said, humans who have gained super abilities due to genetic mutations within their bodies." After Chu Mu gave a rough explanation to Evelin, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something again, He chuckled and changed his words again.
"No, maybe they are not human beings anymore." Chu Mu thought of a classic Marvel joke, which is about whether Mutants are human beings.
In most people's opinion...
Mutants should still be considered human beings, because Mutants are born as humans and only become Mutants if they have mutant genes in their bodies. Before the mutant gene Awakening, the Mutant was just an ordinary human being. Only after the mutation, there were differences in appearance or ability.
Moreover, there is no reproductive isolation between Mutants and humans, and they are basically genetically identical. From this physiological point of view, Mutants are fully human.
However.
According to the official statement of Marvel, the creator of the Marvel Universe, in order to pay less taxes, Marvel has continued to characterize Mutants as non-human beings.
how to say.
Just to make more profits.
If Mutant's peripheral dolls are classified as dolls, which represent humans, they will be subject to an official tax of 12%. However, if Mutant is classified as an ordinary toy, Marvel will only need to pay a 6% tax. .
Ever since.
Marvel tried hard to find ways to exploit loopholes, trying to make Mutants non-human. As long as Mutants were recognized as non-human, they could pay half the tax. A group of creators of the Marvel universe thought hard, and finally they discovered something.
Mutants are mutant creatures. Most of them have huge differences in appearance, and these differences in appearance have nothing to do with humans.
Based on this statement, Marvel directly appealed, and the judicial system eventually determined that Mutants were non-human beings.
All I can say is...it's no wonder that in some parallel universes, Professor X went crazy after watching Deadpool break the fourth wall and learning about Marvel. Professor
Can he not go crazy?
"Gene mutation? And then a person with super ability was born? From what you mean, it seems that this is not an exception... Are you sure you are not kidding me?"
It is difficult for Evelin to accept the supernatural existence of Chu Mu, and naturally it is even harder to accept that there is a group with super ability in this world.
Even if the super ability of this group comes from genetic mutation, in the eyes of intellectuals like Evelin, 3.2 is still no different from a fantasy.
If I hadn't witnessed Chu Mu changing the weather before, and also seen Chu Mu putting the purchased substances directly into some kind of "special" space.
Evelin will definitely think Chu Mu is a charlatan...
"Definitely... time will prove that what I said is true." Chu Mu glanced at Evelin meaningfully. Since this girl has come to the Marvel universe, she will naturally be able to follow the process of history. Discover how incredible this world is.
The existence of Mutant began to be exposed to the public at the end of World War II. Definitely, officials from various countries already had some understanding of Mutant before this.
The Black King, the founder of Hellfire Club, was researching the secrets of Mutant for the Nazis during this period, and there was even a shadow of HYDRA in it. If Chu Mu's estimate is correct, Magneto at the moment should still be a prisoner in the concentration camp, and I don't know if there will be a chance to meet him in the future.
how to say.
Chu Mu suddenly thought of a very interesting question.
According to the relationship between him and Wanda, if he really meets Magneto in the future, how should he call Magneto?
