Chapter 184 - 181 Who Is The Traitor, And Who Is The Leader?
\'I didn\'t do anything; how could I be appointed as a hero to save the world?\'
The White Queen\'s mind was full of question marks, and her face looked baffled. ??
In particular, the senior officials from the Navy Department surrounded her with enthusiastic applause and endless praise.
It was as if she really did what Luke said she did and saved the planet from a terrible disaster.
"What the hell is this …"
The White Queen subconsciously looked at Luke, who was smiling gently. The young Major General\'s eyes were unusually calm, like an observer watching a play.
When she thought of the sincere speech he had just made, which was as honest as if it had actually happened, she seemed to understand something.
\'He did it on purpose …!\'
Her brain felt like a basin of cold water had been poured over it, and she instantly came to her senses.
The White Queen tried her best to break free from the dizziness and suddenly found that the compatriots from the Hellfire Club looked at her strangely.
After settling down, those complicated emotions turned into sharp sword-like screams of rebuke …
Traitor!
Snitch!
For a psychic, interpreting the emotions and thoughts of others was a fundamental skill.
Obviously, at this time, she had become a traitor in the eyes of her compatriots!
\'No, they misunderstood!\'
The White Queen\'s red lips were slightly open as if she wanted to defend herself.
Even though she didn\'t like what Sebastian Shaw did,
She even resisted his intention to use the Continental Shelf Oscillator as an important bargaining chip to threaten the human world -- not only would it harm humans, but it wouldn\'t do any good for the mutants either.
Even so, the White Queen never wanted to betray the Hellfire Club, and the \'King\' brought her into the organization.
The cohesiveness within the mutant community had been strong because most of them have had tragic experiences involving persecution.
Similar experiences, unique natural abilities, and external exclusion and discrimination forced them to gather together.
So, when Sebastian Shaw ascended to the top.
And after showing great strength, he easily gathered a group of compatriots.
Later, Magneto was able to lead the Brotherhood for the same reason.
To put it bluntly, it was the external pressure that forced the mutants to unite internally.
Therefore, as a part of the rejected members of normal society.
The White Queen would never voluntarily choose to leave the Hellfire Club or the mutant community.
That would eliminate the last place she had to stay, the last community she could fit into.
The consequences of being abandoned by the collective were much more frightening than ordinary discrimination and oppression.
That\'s why Sebastian Shaw didn\'t directly rule out the unstable factors when he learned that the other party was in personal contact with her sister in S.H.I.E.L.D and at the same time contradicted his plan.
Because the White Queen has nowhere to go!
Staying in the Hellfire Club, she was a proud and powerful mutant, a beautiful and noble Queen.
If she lost this and returned to the human world, she would only become a freak and a monster in the eyes of others.
"Miss Frost, I heard that you and Agent Kayla of S.H.I.E.L.D are sisters."
Luke casually mentioned this matter and smiled lightly, "In view of the unfair treatment of mutants and the future development. S.H.I.E.L.D will soon hold a peace summit in Paris, at which time all countries will participate."
"You must attend as a representative, so the whole world would know the terrible situation that mutants are facing."
The Major-General looked at the White Queen, who was lost in thought and went to her side, reaching out to squeeze her shoulder.
"Miss Frost, you wouldn\'t refuse this offer, would you?"
The White Queen shrank back and nodded heavily after a long pause.
The diamond-like hard sparkling appearance still couldn\'t cover up her fragile heart.
In the face of Superman, who could resist?
…
…
"Why are you doing this?"
As the night deepened, the White Queen broke into Luke\'s suite and asked angrily.
She hasn\'t been with Sebastian Shaw long enough, and she was far from mature enough to hide her emotions.
"Good evening, Miss Frost."
Luke seemed to know that the other party would come and specially prepared an extra cup.
"Red wine or whisky?"
He asked.
"Please answer my question, Major General!"
The White Queen\'s face was as frosty; the corners of her eyes and eyebrows carried a dense fury.
Psychic energy swept through the living room like a storm.
Unfortunately, Luke, who was in the middle of it, was unmoved and had a smile on his lips, "The reason is very simple and very complicated."
"I need a spokesperson for the mutant side. You\'re perfect for it, Miss Frost."
The White Queen was slightly stunned, and her fierce temper suddenly weakened.
\'Spokesperson?\'
\'Me?\'
"Do you want to be the new leader of the Hellfire Club?"
The White Queen frowned and quickly figured out what Luke was really thinking.
Use her to control the Hellfire Club.
Then go one step further and gather the mutant population.
"My compatriots don\'t trust humans! Major General, you\'re expecting too much!"
After clearing her mind, the White Queen sneered,
"And thanks to that honor you bestowed, many in the club now see me as a traitor!"
"Heh, are you humans willing to accept snitches? Betrayal is an unwelcome and disgusting thing in any group!"
Luke poured himself a glass of whisky. The sound of ice hitting the cup wall was crisp and sweet.
He sat back on the sofa, glanced at the White Queen with his arms on his chest, and slowly said, "It\'s not as bad as you think, Miss Frost."
"First of all, trust can be built gradually, just as Rome wasn\'t built in a day."
"Secondly, the so-called snitches and traitors are only based on the fact that Sebastian Shaw was still the leader of the Hellfire Club."
"How many loyalists can there be now that he has exploded into a ketchup-like mass of unidentified paste? With the King dead, treason is no issue."
Luke beckoned to the White Queen, who kept her distance and alert, to sit down obediently.
People with psychic abilities were sought-after wherever they were.
Especially Emma Frost, the White Queen. She was an Alpha mutant, just like Professor X.
Although her ability was slightly inferior, other aspects weren\'t so bad.
The diamond form that could block one\'s mind, coupled with the leadership position in the Hellfire Club, could categorize her as a rare purple card.
"Whether mutants or humans, the nature of living beings is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."
Luke swirled his glass and quietly said, "As I said, S.H.I.E.L.D. is ready to hold a peace summit and announce the existence of mutants to the world at the same time."
"The persecution and rejection you have suffered in the past are partly due to your extraordinary abilities, the direction and influence of public opinion."
The White Queen stared at the amber liquid in the glass. Her attitude gradually changed from contempt to listening carefully.
"But if someone speaks up for you, changes the image of mutants, and gets the federal government to stand up for you, everything will change."
Luke painted a grand picture, depicting a bright future.
He could do this, but the process wouldn\'t be so simple or easy.
The existence of mutants means that human beings became a lower class.
This was the key problem that was truly difficult to solve.
