Chapter 50 Waiting for a better solution
Charles did not dwell on Magneto's tone, but looked at Lin Feng with curiosity:
"Is this the legendary devil merchant?"
"Is Sabretooth's ability enhanced so much because of the existence of the Devil Fruit?"
"Could it be that the legendary devil businessman is actually cooperating with Magneto?"
Lin Feng shrugged and said:
"Magneto and I are just strategic allies, watching out for each other."
"To jointly resist the persecution of mutants by others."
Charles said to Lin Feng in surprise:
"But as far as I know, you are not mutants?"
"And I can't even connect to your minds."
"You are not mutants, why do you want to resist the persecution of mutants by others?"
Lin Feng sighed and said:
"You know we're not mutants, but others don't think so."
"Devil Fruit users are always considered mutants."
"Like a friend of mine, Frank."
"Frank perhaps you should have known this by now."
"Strike is bringing a large army to capture Frank."
“Maybe you didn’t see the scene at that time.”
"The weapons and personnel Stryker used were innumerable and could be described as reckless."
"It's hard to imagine that the living conditions of mutants are so bad!"
"We're not mutants though."
"But if others insist on treating us as mutants, then we can only find ways to protect ourselves first."
Charles felt very ashamed when he heard this.
The living environment of mutants at this time is very poor.
Even after devil fruit users like Lin Feng were identified as mutants.
They also had to form alliances with other mutant forces.
This made Charles, who had always advocated peaceful coexistence, feel a little embarrassed.
Charles promised Lin Feng:
"I know you're not mutants."
"I will try my best to propose to the senior government officials to confirm your identities as soon as possible."
Lin Feng retorted with great disdain:
"Professor Charles, I know you are actually an extremely intelligent person."
"But sometimes, you are a little too stubborn."
"I think you should know that all conflicts are ultimately due to interests."
"Even if you prove to the higher-ups that we are not mutants, but users of devil fruit abilities."
"What's the use?"
"They'll still treat us like mutants!"
"As long as there is profit, this kind of thing will never stop."
"If you keep compromising, you won't get respect from others."
Lin Feng's words really hit the mark of Magneto's heart.
He increasingly felt that he had made the right choice in making this ally.
Magneto interrupted coldly:
"That's right! How can a weak person like you change the living environment of mutants?"
"Accept the reality. We are different from ordinary humans. We are a more noble race."
"We must show our strength so that others will respect us."
After hearing what Magneto said, Lin Feng was also very ashamed.
Magneto's words can be described as extremely extreme.
When you say mutants are a more noble race, can you please look at me in front of you!
I am also a normal human being.
Have they become an inferior race?
Charles saw Lin Feng's expression.
Although he can read people's minds, he is not as smart as him.
Even without using mutant abilities, one can easily understand people's minds.
He immediately knew that Lin Feng was not someone who would obey Magneto's orders.
And their philosophies are completely different.
He couldn't help but make up his mind to have a good contact with this devil businessman in the future.
It would be best to pull him out of Magneto's camp.
But Lin Feng naturally knew what to say and when.
Although he was very dissatisfied with Magneto's remarks, he did not say it out loud.
Charles then retorted:
"Eric, your point of view is wrong!"
"There is no hierarchy between ordinary people and mutants."
"You thought mutants were a noble race."
"That's just because in your eyes, only the strong can be called mutants."
"But look at how many completely useless abilities mutant humans have?"
"They have no use for these abilities, yet they have to bear the difficult living conditions of mutants."
"You keep saying that mutants are a more noble race and want to fight against humans."
"Have you ever thought about the future of these people?"
"Although you always say you're doing this for mutants, in reality you're nothing more than a racist."
"When there are humans, you discriminate against humans. When there are no humans, you discriminate against weak mutants."
"Thinking like this will never come true, that's why I have to stop you all the time!"
These two people have really interesting ideas.
Lin Feng always wondered why there were always these conservatives and radicals.
Moreover, no matter which faction they belong to, their ideas are extremely extreme.
Lin Feng couldn't help but said to the two of them:
"Why can't you two work together and take a step back, combining your two thoughts?"
"In my opinion, blindly pursuing peace will not lead to victory, and blindly attacking will not keep victory either."
"The art of war is two-fold."
"Make more friends and fewer enemies."
"If you want to make friends, you have to be more conservative and not be so extreme."
"If you want to destroy the enemy, you can't just compromise. Sometimes you have to take action."
"You have such great power, but you are trapped in an academy."
"It has no positive effect on the existence of mutants as a whole."
"So, why can't you two just work together?"
Lin Feng's words were actually a question that had always puzzled him in his previous life.
If the two of them join forces, all the problems of mutants can be easily solved.
But the problem is, not only do they not know how to do that, they always fight with each other.
Hearing Lin Feng's proposal, Magneto sneered:
"Don't be fooled by Charles' lies!"
"What peace? We don't need it at all!"
"The peace of this world is based on powerful military force!"
"If we also have a strong military force, then others will naturally pay attention to us."
Charles did not refute Lin Feng's words, but said to Lin Feng earnestly:
"I know you're right, but it takes time to make a choice."
"And the reason I did this is to give the mutants enough time to wait for a better solution."
