After deciding on the arrangements for Central Asia, Ross found that his life was gradually falling into a state of extraordinary boredom.

Since having Pepper, he no longer needs to intervene in the specific work of the laboratory, and in terms of research, the various research groups are on the right track. In the field of biology, the respective teams led by Connors and Maya have achieved satisfactory results, training the team more than Ross personally led the research and development, and in the field of energy, Otto and Anton have also done a good job, and unexpected inventions are becoming a reality.

There are no problems inside the laboratory, and after leveling Watsonton Pharmaceutical, the outside is also temporarily calm.

At this time, the Hulk is still fleeing in a foreign country, Thor has not been condemned by Odin, Iron Man is staying in the mansion and holding a party happily, Captain America may still be sleeping under the ice, and S.H.I.E.L.D. agents have not yet focused on Ross… Even Magneto’s brotherhood disappeared. Without those magical gemstones, threats from beyond Earth would be impossible.

No change is certainly a good thing for the vast majority of people on this troubled planet. Only when Ross entered this state |, he felt an indescribable loss.

Since his previous life, he has become accustomed to a turbulent life, just as he has long been accustomed to the blood flowing and the pulse rushing.

He is a creature of stress by nature and knows how to fill the void in his heart and keep himself alive in the midst of anxiety. But the sudden arrival of peace made him lose some of his focus in life. If you use a line to describe the trajectory of change during this period, then after a period of intense ups |and downs, a smooth and gentle curve is forming in the near future.

When this rare calm came, Ross suddenly touched the land like a long-time seafarer, and fell into a state of confusion in a rare way.

Watching Mary Jane perform, accompanying Gwen to relax, closing the door in the office and fooling around with other lovers|, strengthening cultivation when there is really nothing to do… Although life seems fulfilling, Ross is only playing the role as it should be, but he plays it so realistically that few people can tell anything out of the ordinary.

In this state, time passes extremely slowly, as if in a dream, and his ego quietly divides into two parts, one consciousness follows the original way of life, running automatically under the command of a program like a sophisticated machine, while more consciousness is detached from the shell and condescendingly watches from another angle.

It wasn’t until there was a commotion outside that day that Ross recovered from his half-dreaming as if suddenly awakened.

Take a few deep breaths and quickly replay the memories of this time in your mind, and then Ross goes to the bathroom and washes his face with cold water to completely wake himself up.

Through the messy hair and water mist, the person who appeared in the mirror was the same Ross Byrne, a nineteen-year-old young man who had just entered |.

Everything in the past life seems to be like a dream, and only the person on the other side of the mirror knows of their existence.

Ross watched quietly for a second, and left the room without looking back.

Now he wanted to see what was going on outside.

Soon, both parties involved in the incident came to him.

These were the people who had just formed the Watchmen company, who had been undergoing routine experiences in the laboratory and did not know why there was a dispute, led by Steelis and Iceman from the Mutant Academy, and on the other side were representatives of several ordinary soldiers, thirty-nine-year-old retired British Royal Navy colonel and former special forces elite Emil Bronnsky, who was the spiritual leader of this side.

Seeing Ding’s boss appear, both parties were a little apprehensive, but it seemed that they had a deep grudge against each other, and soon put their identities behind and scrambled to pour bitter water on Ross.

“Sorry, BOSS.” Toad Todd hurried over when he heard the news.

This time the matter had little to do with him, although he was a senior executive of the Watchmen Company, his job was to preside over intelligence work for the laboratory, and the specific affairs should have been handled by John the Burning Man, assisted by the more experienced Bronsky.

The arrangement is right, but John was sent to Africa some time ago and is now floating at sea with Crowe, so there is a loophole in management, mutants and ordinary people after a period of friction, can no longer hold back their anger, so today in the laboratory in public trouble.

This is Ross’s mistake, after all, he is not a true mutant, and he cannot understand how deep the gap between the two races is.

Perhaps this is a good thing, and it is better to have a problem under Ross’s nose than to cut the flesh and blood in private by two gangs.

Although mutant discrimination is indeed widespread, it is still a big trouble if it is deliberately used by the outside world, which will affect Ross and the lab’s consistently good reputation.

“Do you want to bring Pete and them out and regroup the team with veterans as the core?”

Todd whispered as he suggested that although he had played the role of an attacker many times as a mutant, he did not like to use his former compatriots very much after entering the | state of administrator.

Extreme and impulsive, attributing all misfortunes to persecution imposed by the outside world, never reflecting on their mistakes—- this is a common disease of many mutants, not everyone is lucky enough to be brought back to the academy by professors to teach carefully, and more people have no chance even if they want to join the brotherhood as peripheral members.

In the harsh external environment, not everyone can maintain a normal personality, which makes them increasingly exclusive and aggressive, and has a relatively weak sense of responsibility.

If it weren’t for the fact that these guys were really cheap to use, maybe Ross wouldn’t want to see them in his company.

But since he came to his hands, he would never let go without completely squeezing out the use value of these people.

Whether mutants, or ordinary people, there is no difference in this point.

Ross didn’t speak, shook his head and rejected Todd’s offer. In his opinion, it is far from being truly incompatible, unless it reaches the point where the two sides will beat each other’s brains as soon as they meet, and he does not intend to interrupt his attempt.

Ethnic conflict aside, it is not particularly surprising to say that the causes of these fights are.

The mutants didn’t have any experience with large-scale collaboration, including Pete and Barbie, and perhaps the most they had ever done was to do morning gymnastics together every morning, no one had ever told them how to be highly coordinated, professors wouldn’t want to see themselves teaching an army, and mutants outside the academy had no chance.

In addition to a sense of discipline, these people generally lack common sense. Living in a country with a private gun rate of nearly 90%, many people do not even use guns, some are extremely afraid of weapons, and they are terrified when they hear gunshots, but at the same time they vigorously resist guns and exaggerate the power of personal superpowers. When encountering such a guy, even the best-tempered person will feel a headache, not to mention the fact that there is a tradition of corporal punishment of military personnel.

On the one hand, there are conservative and xenophobic mutants, and on the other side are retired sergeants with prejudice, the former is quite responsible, and the attitude of the Emile’s gang is equally bad.

Facing another branch of humanity, these guys are harsher than ordinary recruits in training camps, even to the point of cruelty. They think that they are the elite employees of the company, and the mutants are the party that is given alms, so they usually never know convergence.

Pitt and Bobby were parachuted, and these ex-servicemen may still have some scruples, basically have no mercy for others, no matter how small a flaw in training, they can magnify it with a critical eye to the point of intolerability, and when this happens, it immediately follows with roar and insult.

If it weren’t for the army here, the recruits wouldn’t be ordinary boys who only shed tears, maybe they would have done something more out of line.

But despite this, it has reached the limit of what mutants can endure.

Just before leaving for the lab from the Watchmen training base on this day, two unpleasant episodes occurred.

One is that a certain mutant soldier assembled a little late, and was shot at the head by his superiors sixty times with his full body facing down the slope, and the members of the same team also had to accompany him to be punished; Another was when someone drank cow | milk before sitting down during a meal, and was fined three cups until they vomited.

After these two small things, the contradictions accumulated by the two sides were completely intensified, and then there were those movements when Ross was in a daze.

Looking coldly at the two angry parties, Ross is very clear about the situation he is in, if he mishandles, he will lose the trust of one side, and if he does not handle it enough, he will also be despised by both sides.

However, he does not intend to adjust the relationship in the usual way, he wants to use a simpler and rougher solution.

“You are all very good people—- Ross began to announce his decision, looking down on both sides of the conflict.

“Regardless of racial talent or acquired effort, it is not an advantage that ordinary people can replace casually. Emile, you are the elite of the army, Pete and Barbie, you are mutants with superpowers, and now you have a dispute, both sides have a reason, and no one will bow their heads, so it is more powerful to decide whose reason is more powerful in a man’s way. Todd —-”

He shouted the name of the intelligence director, and the other party quickly stood up straight.

“Bring some training equipment.” Ross explained a few words, and Todd led the way, and soon brought someone to bring a few boxes.

“Mutants can use superpowers, retired soldiers can use nail guns and nerve suppressive bullets, but some superpowers are limited, live ammunition can only be used by a few people with the best marksmanship, we have enough reserves of Phinex potions, don’t worry about the possibility of breaking a few bones, as long as there is no instant death, I promise you can regain the ability to walk within a month.”

Ross’s decision made the faces of the representatives on both sides twitch, many mutants were afraid of guns, but the sergeant was also quite jealous of superpowers, but now that the employer had made the final verdict, going against his will was tantamount to killing himself, and no one was willing to give up their honor under the gaze of everyone in the scene.

After hearing the announcement, the people below began to talk about it, and there were several small disputes during the period, and finally the two sides reached a verbal agreement not to take lethal measures against each other, purely just a strong skill confrontation.

After all, this is not a battlefield, the two sides are not enemies of life and death, many people only come to earn money to support their families, there is no need to fight you to death and me to the death.

By this time, you can basically see the attitude of these guys, which people are holding a coaxing mentality, which people are the most resolute and stubborn, and which people hide behind their backs and quietly incite … The role played by each of them, the change in mentality of each of them, was clearly exposed to Ross’s gaze.

Glancing at the intelligence chief, Todd understood that he knew how to distinguish between the guys below in the future.

At this point, the field is already in a mess, mutants try their best to take advantage of their superpowers, bone spears are full of flames, and retired sergeants embody the specialties of war experts, who use a few empty chests to make improvised fortifications to use their firepower to offset the opponent’s energy release.

“It’s still interesting to watch one group of people beat another group of people.” Ross sat on the stage and commented casually, and Todd quickly echoed.

Others didn’t know that the supervisor was also a mutant, but they just thought his attitude was a bit too sycophant.

In fact, even within the mutants, some people think that Toad is a horse beater, followed by Magneto in front, and followed Ross when the situation is not good.

Ross knows the following views, but everyone has their own way of survival, and he doesn’t have to explain them for Todd.

As long as you do things honestly and do things well, it is enough, but many so-called smart people cannot do this.

Under his gaze, the struggle between the two groups of employees gradually heated up, and all the tricks that were usually ostentatious were thrown away, leaving only the most impressive instincts of the creatures.

“Looking at how fast they grow, a person has to fight hard, and the biggest motivation is not from my will, but often due to pressure.”

Ross said lightly, with a strange smile on his face, an expression that made the people around him feel familiar.

Todd was shocked in his heart, and couldn’t help but recall the ruthless methods of his boss when he first started his business, when Ross was really unscrupulous, in order to obtain research data, he could kill the blood of the gangster, and dared to boldly swim between the two major forces of mutants in order to steal Magneto’s helmet|.

He began praying to God not to let the then Ross reappear.

Ross didn’t understand Todd’s crankiness, he just stared at the entangled employees|, not knowing what thoughts were spinning in his head.

“There are two outcomes of competition, the winner gets ahead and the laggard becomes a stepping stone for others, but there will always be opportunities, I have no patience for things that are not worthless, and this kind of moment requires someone to act… Even if I do something bad, just let me see enough courage and wisdom. Well, the controversy is over…”

As he muttered, the exhausted two slowly broke away.

Ross stood up.

“I think it’s good that you should know something about your colleagues now. I don’t expect you to love your neighbors, only Jesus Christ can do this without reservation, but I hope that you will be in awe of each other and complete the work plan given to you by the company as soon as possible. ”

“Understood.”

“Understood.”

The two groups replied weakly, covered in sweat, and could no longer see any difference.
