In this confrontation and contest with Hydra, S.H.I.E.L.D. was undoubtedly defeated.
Not only had their base been completely infiltrated, but even the headquarters building had been blown up.
What was even more infuriating was that they didn't manage to capture any important figures from the Hydra.
Due to this war, many reporters and civilians were killed and injured. For a moment, the entire media and fishing boats were aggressive and pointed their fingers at the current government.
Some extreme media even criticized the incompetence of the current government in the live broadcast after the incident and called on the people of the country to hold a demonstration, strongly demanding that Congress impeach the president.
At this moment, an unprecedented political storm had begun.
In the office building of the National Security Council in Washington, D.C., the members of the Security Council were having a heated argument.
In the past few days, they had been overwhelmed by the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D., and both fishing vessels and political pressure had pushed them to the brink of collapse.
"Jerson, what do you say? Is this okay?"
"Sure. Let's do it this way. There must be someone responsible for this matter.”
"Nick Fury was the one who planned the Hydra extermination plan. Since it failed, he naturally has to bear the responsibility.”
A pale-haired old man opposite the blonde director answered.
"What about the fishing boats and the media?”
Another director asked.
"Divert their attention. The Mutant Registration Act was a very good gimmick.”
The white-haired old man looked up at everyone and said meaningfully.
Hearing the old man's words, the eyes of all the directors present could not help but light up. Then, they all nodded their heads. Clearly, they all approved of the old man's method.
The media and the general public had always been sensitive to the issue of mutated humans. After all, this was related to their own interests.
Most of the media and the public were conservative about mutants. They had an instinctive fear of them. They thought that they were too different. Some of the more extreme ones even thought of mutants as demons in human skin.
Therefore, when several members of the National Security Council re-proposed the mutated human registration bill to Congress, it really pulled people's attention away from the topic of the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D.
All of a sudden, the streets and alleys were once again discussing the mutated humans. There were even many media outlets who attributed the injuries of ordinary people in the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D. to the mutated humans.
On a bridge in New York, an old man wearing a gentleman's hat stood quietly in the shadows, quietly watching the crowd demonstrating below.
"See, Charles, I told you that your dream of letting mutants and ordinary people live in peace is a joke. It's just your wishful thinking.”
"The future belongs to the mutated humans! Humans should have been eliminated long ago!"
After saying that, the old man walked along the shadows and left.
Under the quiet bridge, there was only a crowd of people shouting crazily along with the parade. No one had ever noticed that someone had come over their heads.
Westchester County, Xavier School for the Gifted.
The atmosphere in the entire school was very gloomy. All the children and teachers here were mutated humans. They were deeply afraid of the aggressive parade outside.
Mutants did gain some strange abilities due to genetic mutation. However, this did not mean that all Mutants had the power to destroy the world.
For most mutated humans, they were only slightly stronger than ordinary humans.
"Professor, recently, many students have lost control of their abilities because they are too nervous. Is there any way to deal with this?”
Jean, who was dressed in red, came to Professor Charles 'office and asked.
Jean had already graduated. After graduation, she chose to stay and teach because of her love for the mutated human school. She was now a teacher at the mutated human school.
However, recently, the media had deliberately smeared dirty water and attributed the injuries of ordinary people in the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D. to the mutated humans, causing the streets of New York to be filled with all kinds of protests.
Even the mutated human students in school could hear their loud shouts clearly.
All the students in the school were in a state of extreme panic. If it were not for Jean and the other mutated human teachers who had been comforting them over the past few days, the students would have completely collapsed.
"I'm sorry, Jean. I can't do anything about it for the time being. Let's try our best to appease the students first. We'll ask Li Sen later. He should have some news.”
"The media seems to have collectively turned their attention to the mutated humans overnight. Something big must have happened.”
