Superman of the American Comics

Chapter 289 Unfortunate Childhood, Talent Academy

The establishment of the Academy of Mutants was promoted by Luke, and the plan was finally finalized and passed through the bill of Congress.

It is different from the private schools with bald professors in the future. It is a three-no educational institution without certificates, qualifications, and recognition by the federal government. It can be banned and closed at any time and imposed severe fines.

This young academy under the jurisdiction of S.H.I.E.L.D. has strong teachers, a complete range of certificates, and honorary school directors such as beautiful principals and Superman.

If we really want to open enrollment, I am afraid that the threshold will be stepped down.

If it wasn't for the fact that the school only accepts mutants, those rich and famous people, the upper elite, would probably send their children there.

In the future, whether in business or politics, they can be regarded as students taught by Superman.

what?

You said that Superman doesn't have classes at all, just honorary school trustees?

That doesn't matter, as long as you can climb up the relationship.

It's like many people go to prestigious schools to be gilded, not because they want to study hard and make progress every day.

Networking, and a shiny personal resume, is the real purpose.

And if you come from a famous school, or go to the same school as a famous person, you will have face if you say it.

In the political arena of the United States, there are already sayings such as "Harvard Gang" and "Yale Gang".

The Supreme Court has nine top justices, all from Harvard and Yale law schools.

Many people have said that being a president does not require a graduate from a prestigious school. If one wants to become the supreme justice, one must go to Columbia and Northwestern University instead of Harvard and Yale.

Far away, anyway, Superman started to establish a mutant academy, which attracted a lot of attention.

"In this way, Charles Jr. should be the best in this class?"

Luke leaned on the back seat of the car and closed the files that the White Queen had handed over.

They were on their way to Manhattan's Long Island, where the newly built Mutant Academy was located.

On the original address, there used to be a private winery.

Later, due to poor management, it went bankrupt disastrously.

S.H.I.E.L.D. took it at a very low price and transformed it into a modern campus that it should have.

Speaking of which, the Academy of Mutants is very close to Howard Stark's manor, and they are regarded as neighbors.

There is nothing to do in the future, and I can drop by the door.

"People with psychic powers have always been rare, and Charles, who can awaken talent and master abilities at such a young age, is indeed a rare genius."

The White Queen brushed her drooping hair behind her ears and said softly.

The innate abilities of mutants are mostly awakened in adolescence.

Intense emotions, as well as rapid growth, can easily activate the X gene in the body.

Talent can be awakened at a young age, and the strength is not too bad.

Just name a few people, Professor Bald, Magneto, Phoenix Girl Qin-Grey, Mister Fantastic's son Franklin...

All are bosses.

The worst is also Alpha level.

"By the way, he also has a younger sister named Ruiwen, who is also a mutant."

The White Queen seemed to think of something, and added.

"She can change her own cells and tissue structure. Simply put, she can deform and become anyone's appearance, even including such subtleties as irises and fingerprints."

Luke raised his eyebrows. The future Professor Charles and Mystique have become his students.

Of the several elders of the mutants, only one Magneto did not appear.

Speaking of it, he always thought that the bald professor was a model for the protagonist, who inherited his parents' inheritance at a young age, and even adopted a younger sister who was not related by blood.

Both parents died, owning a car and a house, and a younger sister, falling in love and killing each other with friends...

Be more like the main character than yourself!

"I read in the information that Charles Jr. was born in a wealthy family in New York. His father, Brian Xavier, was a scientist. He later joined the business world and made his fortune."

Luke put away his divergent thinking and asked, "How could he accept that his son is a mutant, or to put it another way, how could he accept that his son entered a school that specifically recruits mutants?"

Such an approach, to use an inappropriate analogy, is equivalent to a white elite sending his son to a black school.

Undoubtedly, some strange eyes and criticism will be accepted.

Although in terms of legislation, Luke has begun to secretly promote the passage and implementation of the Mutant Registration Act, and is preparing to change the public's perception.

But this is not something that can be changed and achieved overnight, it takes time to settle.

"I've done family visits and met the parents of little Charles."

The White Queen is studying hard how to be a qualified headmaster.

Since she ran away from home, she hasn't had any serious career or career.

After joining the Hellfire Club, he chanted slogans with Sebastian Shaw every day to brainwash his compatriots.

It can't give people a sense of satisfaction and self-identity at all.

Luke was able to hand over the management of the Mutant Academy to himself, and the White Queen was very grateful.

That night, when I sat on it and shook my waist, I worked a lot harder.

"Little Charles' parents are more enlightened, and they accepted their son's mutant identity very early."

The White Queen shook off the embarrassing picture in her mind, and continued: "That child is more mature and quiet than his peers. He has his own ideas and is very smart."

"Adopting Ruiwen is also a decision he made after persuading his parents."

"Personally, he thinks that the Academy of Mutants is more suitable than ordinary private middle schools or elite schools."

Luke nodded. A psychic like Charles Jr. can listen to his heart and read his thoughts.

It is so easy to guide the behavior of others.

What's more, he has always behaved like a child from someone else's family, studying hard, and being quiet and obedient.

Every family teacher who is responsible for teaching little Charles will express the same emotion——

This is an out-and-out supernatural power and genius!

"Born in a family with very different childhood experiences, it's no wonder that those two people will go on opposite paths in the future."

Luke thought of the personal file he had read just now, and let out a chuckle in his heart.

Charles Jr. was born in a wealthy family in New York, and he can be said to be the lucky one who grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth.

Living in a mansion in Westchester, there are servants to take care of daily life.

And his future good friend and little partner, Magneto King Eric Lancer.

But because of their Jewish identity, the whole family was persecuted and went to a concentration camp to experience the cruelty of war.

There is a saying, "Unfortunate people spend their whole lives healing their childhood, and lucky people spend their whole lives being healed by their childhood."

It is really suitable for the two leaders of mutants, Professor X and Magneto.

Magneto, who saw his mother die in front of his own eyes, saw and experienced racial persecution, cruel massacres and other human tragedies.

Naturally, it is difficult to understand that Charles's pacifism and conservatism have belittled it as a cowardly and weak approach.

Charles, who has a happy family and a happy life, can only sympathize with Magneto's tragic childhood, but cannot empathize with him.

This kind of concept created the split of the mutants and the confrontation between the two camps.

"This year, how many students have you recruited?"

When Luke talked about business, he started to build an academy, not only to give mutants a place to live, but also to take into account the rapid changes in the future era.

Superheroes, alien races, evil organizations, cosmic crisis...

These are the eternal themes in the Marvel Universe.

Therefore, there is no harm in taking the first step and closing the layout.

"A total of 31 are eligible."

The White Queen smiled helplessly.

Enrolling students encountered difficulties. On the one hand, many families still hold secretive and conservative ideas about mutants.

On the other hand, in the group of mutants, about 30.00% of their compatriots have major genetic defects.

Either the appearance is different from ordinary people, or the ability is beyond control.

These are not eligible for admissions, and at most are transferred to medical institutions.

"Not bad, there will be more and more in the future."

Luke is quite satisfied. In his opinion, this wave of enrollment has attracted the future bald professor and Mystique, which is quite a success.

It is equivalent to drawing out two golden legends in a row of ten consecutive rounds.

"arrive."

The two iron doors opened backwards, and the car slowly drove into a vast private estate.

On the nameplate at the door, there is the words "Cavill Youth Talent Academy".

That is the official name of the school to the outside world.

　ps: Regarding the update, I posted a chapter explaining it before, but then I was afraid of affecting the reading experience, so I left it for a while and then deleted it.

　　Well, let me explain again.The end of last month + the beginning of this month was the KPI assessment for the second half of the year. I was busy and had a lot of things to do. I even had to act like a simple leek, "voluntarily" work overtime, and then nail it on time.Keeping up to date is already my best effort. It will end around the 15th, and I will ask for annual leave at that time to make up for changes.

　　Sorry.
