Chapter 151: 151 - Anger
Chapter 151: 151 - Anger
"So you mean someone came to help you guys deal with the out-of-control mutant?" Professor Xavier somewhat incredulously asked the Scott in front of him.
Scott scratched the back of his head as he responded a little uncertainly. "Yes, apparently he was an ESW Player who got a Skill from there, as he was a Shaman, he got the Skill Lightning Bolt and he was from afar using the Skills on the out of control mutant. Because of his help the battle was very easier than it should be initially."
Hearing this, Professor Xavier was quite surprised. "And what was people\'s reaction like, did they treat him badly too?"
"No, actually, unlike other times when we went out on missions and were received with hostility from everyone, this time no one shouted anything bad at us, there were even some people who took out their cell phones to record us while they shouted words of encouragement. Especially after the Player appeared using the Shaman Skill, from then on, people\'s support only got bigger and bigger." Scott explained a little confused.
Hearing this, Professor Xavier\'s eyes widened.
As a Doctor of Psychology, it was easy for him to identify the reason for such a drastic change in people\'s attitudes.
"They are seeing that now they can also get powers like us, so their hostility has changed. What before they saw us with the eyes of a poor person looking at a billionaire, who knew that they would never be on the same level and that they would always would be different, now it\'s changed to like a middle-class person looking at someone a little wealthier. We still have a difference, but it\'s a difference they can achieve if they work hard." Professor explained to everyone, making everyone\'s eyes widen.
"So they\'ll start seeing us as normal people?" Kitty asked excitedly.
The teacher shook his head. "I\'m not sure, since this is the first time this has happened, but I\'m pretty sure the hostility will only diminish more and more as ESW Skills become more popular."
Even though the Professor\'s response wasn\'t the most positive, it was still enough to get all of the X-Men excited about this change.
But while the X-Men were excited about this, there was one group that was furious at the wave of new people around the world awakening powers.
If this was a few months ago, this group would probably be very excited since it meant they would get more soldiers, but with the arrival of Oasis and ESW, they knew that these people who were getting new powers were not mutants like them, but just ordinary humans.
Magneto looked at the reports in front of him angrily.
"Everything is falling apart..." Magneto commented angrily as he saw that the amount of mutants they managed to recruit this week was less than 15% of what they managed to recruit in the past, and this would probably decrease even further.
"Useless, only useless mutants agreed to join the Brotherhood..." Magneto became even angrier when he saw that the mutants who joined them were just mutants with powers of little use, while the mutants with more useful powers decided to wait a little longer to to see.
"Tell me, why don\'t they want to join us? What\'s their response?" Magneto asked Mystique in front of him.
Mystique was also frustrated, but still responded. "They said that the treatment they were receiving from humans was much better than before, and if it continued like this they didn\'t feel it would be advantageous to join a terrorist group like us."
"They what?!" Magneto was so furious that the building they were in even started to shake. "Where did they get this audacity from? Who gave them the courage to talk to me like that?"
Mystique just shook her head. "It seems that ever since powers became normal and people began to revere powers, mutants are changing from something that was despised by society to something revered, so these people\'s pride is also growing."
Magneto became even angrier upon hearing this.
"Damn, shitty Notch, I need revenge." Magneto was panting with rage, he had never been so despised before.
In the past, whenever someone spoke his name, whether human or mutant, everyone felt afraid of the power he had, especially because he was able to lift a football stadium alone when he was younger.
Now just because he hasn\'t done anything that aggressive recently are they disregarding his name?
"I think it\'s time for humans to feel the terror of the Brotherhood again. Call the others, we\'ll have a meeting." Magneto calmed down and commanded in a cold voice.
Mystique was a little worried that this would go wrong since there were now more people with powers and they didn\'t know Notch\'s true strength, but seeing the anger that Magneto was feeling she knew that saying something now wouldn\'t do any good, so she just did it. what he ordered.
While Magneto was planning something to get revenge on Notch, Alex was looking at the amount of GP he had available with a gigantic smile on his face.
"2.4 billion Players, that is, 120 million GP every month! Hahaha!" Alex laughed excitedly.
Alex was pleased that the choice he had made in the past had proven fruitful.
Splitting the profits from the game was the best thing I decided, since seeing that they could gain powers while playing would make more and more Players come and play ESW, which would make even more money for him.
"The fruits of the investment are ripening... having 50% of 120 million GP is better than having 100% of 50 million GP." Alex laughed.
Even if only 60 million GP came to him, and the other 60 million was used to invest in game development and Skill redemption, 60 million was still a huge amount.
"With this money I can now start learning the most expensive and truly powerful Skills in the System." Alex laughed as he opened his shop to see what he could learn.
Unbeknownst to him, these new Skills he would learn would soon be put to use against Magneto.
