NO.484 Magneto's Compromise
After leaving the Hulk's cell, Zhang Heng checked every corner of the Moshaku Furnace Factory again, and finally confirmed that no hidden dangers were left. Then he nodded with satisfaction and walked towards the corridor of the lounge.
But at this moment, an old figure wearing a burgundy helmet and a red cloak walked out of the door of a lounge, and behind him was obediently following a sexy woman in a red leather jacket. The two of them just looked at Zhang Heng indifferently, then looked straight ahead and passed by Zhang Heng.
However, at the moment when both sides intersected, the woman in red suddenly turned her head, and a sharp red light flashed in her eyes, and a red wave of air rose up and rushed towards Zhang Heng in an instant!
"Ha." Zhang Heng seemed to be ready, his red eyes condensed. At the moment when the eyes of both sides were intertwined, the woman in red suddenly changed her expression. She felt like she was hit hard, and suddenly flew backwards and hit the steel wall beside her!
"Dong!"
A huge impact sound came, and the old man next to him suddenly changed his expression. He raised his arm without thinking. Suddenly, the metal around him seemed to have formed an indescribable resonance with him, but before he could exert force, his eyes suddenly burst into tears, and Zhang Heng disappeared in front of him like teleportation!
The old man looked shocked and suddenly looked behind him, but saw Zhang Heng squatting on the ground leisurely, and in his arms, he was hugging the woman in red. His slender and flexible fingers seemed to be placed on the other person's neck, like a touch of a lover, but when he saw this picture, the old man did not dare to move...
"Let me go!" The woman in red was forcibly embraced by Zhang Heng. A hint of shame and anger flashed across her face, and she struggled regardless. However, her superpower that could have ruined the world seemed to have been sealed and could not be used at all!
A sneer appeared in the devilish red eyes. Zhang Heng pointed to his forehead. Suddenly, a half-finger-long gap was cracked on his forehead. In the gap, a gem of yellow light shone brightly. "Silly man, your power comes from 'it'. Do you want to use the power of 'it' to attack its master?"
"Enough, Zhang Heng, let go of my daughter." The old man put down his arm with a scruple of the mouse and said helplessly, "Believe me, we have no intention of being an enemy of you."
Hearing this, Zhang Heng slowly let go of his arms. The woman in red quickly broke free and tidied up her clothes. Then, behind the old man, he stared at Zhang Heng in shame and anger.
"Magneto, it seems that you and your daughter have broken free from the constraints of brain control chips." Zhang Heng said lightly.
"It's not considered breaking free, it's just using the power of the 'heart' to deceive that thing in our brains." Magneto pondered, "No one likes that his life and death are controlled by others, right?"
"This is not the reason why she attacked me." Zhang Heng turned around and walked out of the corridor, saying as he walked, "Nothing is the case."
The two of them were silent. They looked at each other. The Scarlet Witch seemed to realize something and shook her head at her father. However, Magneto seemed to have made up his mind. He chased Zhang Heng's figure regardless of his daughter's begging eyes, and said loudly, "Zhang Heng, I want to make a deal with you!"
Zhang Heng's indifferent voice immediately came, "Do you want to exchange you for your daughter's freedom?"
"Yes..." Magneto was stunned. Obviously, he didn't expect that the thought in his heart would be guessed by the other party in an instant. The fear in his eyes became even stronger. He quickly said, "I am willing to listen to your order forever, and you must promise me one thing, and you must give my daughter a free life!"
"This condition is very touching." Zhang Heng paused, turned his head and looked at Magneto's eyes seriously, "But, you must give me a reason to trust you."
"..." Magneto was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "You can make my daughter and I never meet again. In that way, her spiritual power will not affect me, and I will never be able to get rid of your control. Is this reason enough?"
"Father!" said the Scarlet Witch anxiously.
"Okay, I promise you." Zhang Heng immediately showed a look of satisfaction and said in an unquestionable tone, "I can let your daughter be free, but I also have a requirement, that is, you must leave this seat with me."
"Where are we going?" Magneto was stunned and asked after hesitating.
"A paradise." Zhang Heng pointed his hand to his head, turned around and walked forward again, and said as he walked, "Don't worry, I won't be so mean to treat my own people. After I get there, I will leave your daughter in that space. There is a free world where there is no fighting, surveillance, and no confinement, where everyone has a happy life."
"And you," Zhang Heng paused, "will follow me to conquer new planes...this is your mission."
"And I will allow you to meet once every once in a while, and this is the only promise I can make."
Zhang Heng's voice came slowly, but his figure gradually disappeared at the end of the corridor. Until Magneto saw Zhang Heng leave, he sighed with some reluctance. He looked at his daughter lovingly, and finally nodded with encouragement, his eyes full of reluctance.
"Wanda, live well." As he said that, Magneto turned around and left without looking back, only the Scarlet Witch stood there blankly, his eyes filled with tears...
At this moment, Zhang Heng was already standing on the platform of the plane shuttle. He looked at Magneto who was gradually coming and showed a smile. Magneto attaches great importance to family affection and position, but he is very frank about love. From the plot of "X-Men: Apocalypse", we can know that after his wife and daughter Anna died, he only cried his own daughter, but was indifferent to his dead wife. Later, the same was true for the demon-shaped girl who had loved each other now. She killed her at the same time, without hesitation at all. Instead, she was in a hostile position for her early friendship and Professor x was unexpectedly concerned about her.
Therefore, using the other party’s daughter as bargaining chips, Zhang Heng was not worried that the other party would reject him. Magneto and himself were deeply similar. Once he established his identity, his attention to the ethnic group would be beyond imagination.
In his childhood, Magneto, who had not yet awakened his abilities, was locked up in concentration camps with his mother because of his Jewish identity. The racial pros and cons of the concentration camps had been engraved into his character before everything was created. He vaguely realized that the trust and feelings between races were extremely fragile. It can be seen from his words "This piece of gold is the relic of my compatriots" that once he figured out his identity, he would show a high sense of pride and honor for the group represented by his identity.
It is also because of this that his childhood experience laid the foundation for his extreme character and methods of acting in the future, and he wanted to allow mutants to live in this world safely at the cost of extinction of humanity. From a psychological perspective, Magneto is more worthy of win over and trust than the so-called "justice" superheroes. In addition, the brain-controlled chip makes the chance of the other party betrayal will be very small.
