Chapter 350
After quietly breaking free from the suppression of several Five Fingers ranges, Su Quan washed up, dressed, said a few words to Kayla who was already awake, and then disappeared without a trace.
The next moment.
At William Stryker Island base, Su Quan quietly appeared in his office.
William Stryker wasn't the only one in the office; there were two other acquaintances there as well.
Agent Zero and Sabretooth.
One of them drew his gun, while the other stretched out his fingernails, both watching Su Quan warily as he suddenly appeared.
"You dare to come back!"
William Stryker glared at Su Quan with burning rage, the hatred in his eyes almost tangible.
Su Quan smiled dismissively, "Why wouldn't I dare to come back? Can you keep me here?"
"Bang!"
The gun in Agent Zero's hand fired!
Su Quan sneered, and in the blink of an eye, the bullet that was right in front of him froze in mid-air.
"You seem to have forgotten my abilities—but it doesn't matter, you can remember them in your next life."
"Stop!"
The moment Su Quan finished speaking, William Stryker's shout rang out.
Unfortunately, it was too late!
Or rather, his attempts to stop him were ignored by Su Quan.
"Puff!"
The bullet pierced between his eyebrows, and Agent Zero collapsed to the ground with an expression of disbelief on his face.
Dead, utterly and completely dead!
Agent Zero dared to make a move mainly because of his fast shooting skills, believing that Su Quan would not expect him to make a sudden move.
Even if he fails, Su Quan probably won't kill him directly. After all, Su Quan's sudden return must have some ulterior motive, and he most likely won't turn on him and kill him.
Simply put, it would be best if we succeeded, but even if we failed, we could at least impress William Stryker and shouldn't be in any real danger.
Then...
He's dead!
Su Quan wouldn't care about his little schemes, much less indulge his bad habits.
If you dare to make a move, you must be prepared to face death!
William Stryker stared at Su Quan with a livid face, his eyes practically spitting fire. To put it in a cliché way: if looks could kill, Su Quan would have been dead hundreds of times over.
Endure! Endure! Endure!
Once the Weapon X is fully modified, all grudges, old and new, will be settled!
He suppressed his anger and asked, "What do you want to do back here? Kill me?"
"Kill you?" Su Quan shook his head with a smile, "I'm not here to kill you. After all, you've treated me well, no matter what."
William Stryker secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but outwardly snorted, "Just say what you want!"
Su Quan shrugged and said calmly, "There's no need to hate me so much, is there? In the end, I only took away the women who were connected to me."
"I took them away because they satisfied me, and also because I didn't want you to use them against me."
"If I wanted to, I could take all the Mutants away, kill you without anyone noticing, and even easily destroy this place."
William Stryker's expression softened somewhat, because what Su Quan said was true.
In fact, he didn't believe that Su Quan had any intention of betraying him from the beginning.
Kill him?
Save the Mutants?
He didn't do anything; he just took away a few women connected to him.
William Stryker believed that Su Quan was simply unable to resist the charms of beautiful women, and that's why he betrayed him and took them away.
Now that Su Quan has returned, it is highly likely that he has already settled those women and is ready to serve him again.
William Stryker thought about it more and more, and it seemed more and more reasonable and possible!
After a moment's thought, he asked.
"You want to come back?"
"No, it's you who needs me to come back!"
Su Quan glanced at the Sabretooth, shook his head, and said, "You don't mean to have him carry out the original plan in my place, do you?"
The Sabretooth snorted, "Is there a problem?"
Su Quan smiled and waved his hand gently at him.
"Bang!"
The Sabretooth crashed into the wall instantly.
The invisible pressure made him feel as if his entire body was being subjected to immense gravity, and if he relaxed even slightly, he might be crushed into a pulp.
"You knew perfectly well you were no match for me, so you should have just stayed put! It wouldn't have hurt you to say a few words to me, but now you've gone and humiliated yourself!"
Ignoring the Sabretooth glaring at him, Su Quan turned to William Stryker with a smile and said, "Let's cooperate!"
How can we cooperate?
"I'll help you continue with the original plan. You can choose any Mutants you capture. How about it?"
"You've already betrayed me once, why should I trust you?" William Stryker asked in a deep voice.
Su Quan said frankly, "Because I didn't kill you!"
"..."
Good medicine tastes bitter, and the truth can be hurtful.
Although William Stryker was somewhat embarrassed, he had to admit that Su Quan genuinely wanted to continue working with him.
Given Su Quan's strength, whatever his purpose may be, he has no need to deceive himself.
Well, William Stryker's mindset is the same as those who get scammed.
If you know someone who spends tens of thousands of yuan every time they treat you to meals and entertainment, and gives you expensive gifts.
Then one day, they ask you to borrow tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of yuan under the pretext of needing funds, and you will definitely lend it without even having any doubts.
Because the other person has already spent more than this much money on you!
A few days later, the other party returned the money to you and also gave you a high interest rate. In just a few days, you may have earned tens of thousands of yuan in interest for nothing.
Next time he asks you for a loan, even if the amount is large, you'll most likely still lend it to him because of your previous good relationship and the high interest rate, right?
And then, that was it!
To put it bluntly, this kind of scam doesn't actually require any technical skill; it just exploits people's psychology.
This person is so rich, they wouldn't cheat me out of this little bit of money!
The same applies to William Stryker. With Su Quan's strength, no one can stop him from doing whatever he wants, so there's no need for him to resort to deception.
In fact, Su Quan didn't lie to him; at most, he was just using him.
William Stryker is different from Bolivar Trask, who, although he created the Sentinel Robot that nearly wiped out Mutants, did not actually target many Mutants.
William Stryker was different.
First of all, he is a general, and even if he doesn't hold a high position of power, he has his own influence and is in charge of the X-Weapon Project.
Secondly, his son is also Mutants, known as the Master of Illusions, who can use illusions to influence the senses of others, and the brain fluid extracted from his body can control the thoughts of Mutants.
The female version of Wolverine, Deathbird, later created by William Stryker, was controlled by this brain fluid and obeyed his commands without question.
The main reason Su Quan returned to William Stryker and wanted to continue cooperating with him was to use him to find Mutants!
It's not about finding the Mutants that appear in movies. If Su Quan wanted to, he could use his Psychic Abilities to conduct a targeted global scan and easily find all the known Mutants.
He was looking for Mutants like the St. Croix Sisters and their shells, but who hadn't appeared in the movies.
Keep in mind that there are still at least twenty years until the X-Men era. Su Quan doesn't believe that William Stryker will give up capturing and studying Mutants after Wolverine and Professor X rescue the group of Mutants he's currently capturing!
The X-Weapon Project won't be stopped just because Wolverine escaped!
"Pleasure doing business with you?"
Su Quan raised an eyebrow and smiled at William Stryker.
William Stryker sighed somewhat reluctantly and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
Of course, Su Quan didn't think he was really unwilling. He was the kind of person who only considered the pros and cons and didn't care about face when it came to achieving his goals.
However, his resentment is genuine. Just because he doesn't care about face doesn't mean he's indifferent to face, much less that he can accept that someone, especially Mutants, is beyond his control.
