William Stryker had been right. With the live broadcast on Daily Global, all the viewers who watched were left astounded.

"What's going on? The camera is gone, but the live broadcast is still ongoing?"

"Why would the military ambush the X-Men here?"

"There seems to be more to this than meets the eye!"

Initially, apart from a few individuals who held a favorable opinion of the X-Men, most of the viewers were simply seeking entertainment.

Even when they witnessed the video call between Adam Robert and William Stryker, many people assumed it was just a regular military operation.

After all, in these times, harboring hostility towards mutants had become commonplace.

However, when William Stryker revealed his plan to capture Professor X and use Cerebro to eliminate all mutants...

Some people furrowed their brows.

"Destroy all mutants in the world? That's too cruel."

Although they had no idea why the brainwave enhancer was so powerful, the wanton massacre of an entire race was difficult for many people living in a civilized world to accept.

Before they could fully process this, they heard William Stryker confess to controlling the mutant who assassinated the President.

This revelation sent shockwaves through the audience!

"God, the person who assassinated the President wasn't a mutant, but a military colonel?"

"Isn't this the same person from the X-Men documentary, who conducted inhumane experiments on Wolverine?"

"The Weapon X project he oversees involves numerous innocent individuals!"

"What kind of vendetta does this guy have against mutants?"

"For his own selfishness, how dare he assassinate the President and blame it on mutants?"

"He's playing us for fools, inciting our hatred towards mutants, and trying to gain the President's support for his plan?!"

"How dare a mere colonel orchestrate such a massive scheme? Could there be higher military orders behind it?"

"What a great betrayal! It seems the military is undermining the President?!"

"Wow—"

Countless individuals were left dumbfounded, their jaws dropping to the ground. Soon after, footage of Catherine, Eddie, and others being shot played out on the screen.

Public opinion erupted at that moment! What followed was the transformation of William Stryker's image, from an unscrupulous opportunist to a merciless demon.

There's a detective from the NYPD... and reporters from the Daily Global. How could they?!

This is madness!

"This William Stryker is a madman..."

The notion entered the minds of countless people simultaneously, and when they learned that William Stryker's own son was a mutant and had become an experimental subject...

A chilling sensation shot through them, quickly transforming into an immense rage.

Only then did they realize that the darkness of the human heart is far more terrifying than any genetic mutation!

"The military actually allowed such an evil person to become a colonel, and to oversee such a malevolent X-weapon program. What exactly are they trying to achieve?!"

"He dared to slaughter all mutants today, will he turn his weapons on ordinary people tomorrow?"

"Don't forget, there are many innocent civilians among his experimental subjects!"

"The military should be the protectors of the people, not inhumane butchers!"

"Someone like him deserves to rot in hell!"

At this moment, a few astute individuals noticed the anomaly, but they were quickly overwhelmed by the tidal wave of anger.

"This doesn't make sense. We all saw the news on Daily Global. How could William Stryker not see it? Why is he still conversing with his subordinates?"

"Hmph! He must not have read the news. He doesn't know that the X-Men have exposed the NYPD and reporters!"

"How is that possible? With such a meticulous plan, wouldn't he pay attention to the mutant channel? How could he not see the X-Men's statement?"

"Hahaha, don't you see? This guy is a complete lunatic. He's overly confident in himself!"

"That's right, he even dared to assassinate the President. There's nothing he wouldn't do!"

"He probably doesn't even know that he's being broadcasted live!"

Amidst the heated discussions against William Stryker, Iron Man suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Subsequently, the illusion created by Lynn dissipated, and the X-Men reappeared before their eyes. Adam Robert and the others looked as if they had seen a ghost, adding another dramatic twist to this unprecedented live broadcast.

Only then did the audience react.

"So, the X-Men weren't captured after all!"

"I knew it! People with superpowers like them can't be easily manipulated!"

"So, the previous images were all fake? Could William Stryker's video call have been fake too?"

"It must be true. Just look at the expressions of those soldiers!"

"Only Iron Man witnessed the real scene, which is why he found it so peculiar."

...

Since the news broadcast began, countless people were tuning in to this channel.

Turbulent public opinion had now converged into a tempestuous sea.

At this moment, everyone was glued to their screens, desperate to uncover the truth. The best way to reveal it would undoubtedly be to capture Adam Robert and the others and confront William Stryker in court.

Iron Man's appearance served as a catalyst, offering the possibility of this confrontation. He could make it happen.
