Chapitre 103: The Butterfly Effect
Eric, with his keen intellect, easily picked up on Alex's words, understanding that his message had been received loud and clear. Alex's assurance that he wouldn't interfere, even if Anna was taken away, only confirmed Eric's belief that he had successfully influenced Alex's decisions. Sometimes, inaction spoke louder than words.
A sly smile tugged at Eric's lips as an idea began to form in his mind. With Senator Kelly in mind, Eric pondered the potential side effects of the Mutant transformation process. A mouse, conveniently available for experimentation, presented the perfect opportunity to test his theory.
Eric's smile widened as he envisioned the implications of Senator Kelly, the staunch advocate against Mutants, undergoing a transformation himself. Just as Trask, the architect of the Sentinel program, had ultimately become a Mutant, Eric saw the potential for Senator Kelly to undergo a similar transformation.
If Senator Kelly were to become a Mutant, would he continue to push for anti-Mutant policies? Eric doubted it. Just as Trask had abandoned the Sentinel program upon becoming a Mutant, Senator Kelly would likely reassess his stance on Mutants once he experienced their reality firsthand.
With Trask's transformation prompting a shift in focus, Eric was eager to delve deeper into Mutant research, particularly the intricacies of self-awakening and mutation.
Trisk originally discovered the X gene within the human genetic sequence. According to his beliefs, fully activating the X gene in the human body could potentially transform individuals into mutants, specifically targeting those with only X genes. This process wouldn't affect regular humans or existing mutants.
Even Alex couldn't have foreseen that his minor intervention would set off such significant ripples, altering history and reshaping the future.
If a method existed that could activate the X gene without any side effects, causing no harm to ordinary humans but merely triggering the awakening of the X gene, would Charles still oppose it? It's reasonable to assume that, being pragmatic, Charles would welcome anything beneficial to mutants.
"Alice Island, once the gateway for United States immigrants, now regains prominence. The United Nations summit is set to convene here, with leaders from around the world in attendance. Over two hundred countries' heads will gather to discuss economic agreements, armament issues, and the global impact of mutants. U.S. Congressmen argue that the primary focus should be on reaching a consensus on mutant management."
On the television screen, the day's hot topics unfolded. Eric listened intently to the news, his eyes lighting up with anticipation. The United Nations summit? If these world leaders were to become mutants, who would agree to any absurd clauses on mutant management?
Eric ascended the stairs, stealing a glance at the peacefully slumbering Anya. A faint smile graced her lips, hinting at pleasant dreams.
Observing her for a moment, Eric tipped his hat before descending the stairs.
"Don't you want her to meet you?" Alex, now clad in pajamas, emerged, casting a questioning gaze at Eric.
"No, I need to create a better world before appearing in front of my daughter," Eric said with a nonchalant shake of his head.
After Eric finished speaking, he walked outside.
....
Early the next morning, Alex turned on the TV, and Congressman Kelly's trip began to be broadcast on it, and the surrounding crowd held signs.
The title is actually, let Mutant rot in prison.
"Sure enough, human beings are still really forgetful. Have they forgotten the Apocalypse catastrophe more than ten years ago?"
"The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, if it weren't for us, I'm afraid the Third World War would break out, let alone the Apocalypse catastrophe in 1983. If it weren't for us, these bastards would have been enslaved by Apocalypse." Seeing humans actually hold up this brand, she can't help but complain.
Alex smiled helplessly, human beings are the most forgetful, isn't it?
