Chapter 355
So you're one of those people who're out in the game, huh? Not going to give me an explanation, are you
OK!
Then don't blame me for bullying you!
With a cold laugh, the playing cards at the Gambit' fingertips suddenly glowed with an eerie light.
He simply waved his hand lightly in Su Quan's direction, and the glowing playing cards flew straight over.
At almost shoulder to shoulder, the playing cards flew to Su Quan's face in the blink of an eye.
Su Quan drank the wine in one hand and gently grabbed something with the other.
The poker cards that had been charging forward seemed to lose their momentum instantly, falling limply and being caught by Su Quan.
It felt like catching a falling playing card, rather than catching a flying one.
The Gambit narrowed his eyes slightly, his surprise mixed with a hint of smug satisfaction.
My cards aren't so easy to catch!
"Bang!"
Almost instantly, the playing card exploded in Su Quan's hand.
But!
Before the energy from the explosion could even spread, a strange suction force directly sucked away the energy tide!
"Um???"
Gambit stared in astonishment at the dissipating energy, then exclaimed in surprise, "You're Mutants too?"
"Bite!"
"Battle detected. Reward dropped: Foresight (Gambit)"
"How strange! Not only am I Mutants, but they are all Mutants!"
Su Quan said calmly and opened the system panel.
He wanted to see whether this precognitive ability would be categorized under Psychic Abilities or listed separately.
The result surprised him somewhat.
It is neither listed separately nor categorized under Psychic Abilities, but rather merged with Spider-Man's Spider-Sense.
That... is understandable.
Since they're all related to prediction, there's nothing wrong with grouping them together.
After closing the system panel, the notifications for the rewards dropped Watching Battle started playing again.
Since the Gambit dared to attack Su Quan, the Little Raven would naturally not stand idly by.
Whether Su Quan uses them or not is not important; what is important is that they cannot simply stand by and watch the show.
Is it acceptable for someone to attack your boss or your master and you to remain indifferent and make no move?
Besides, they were already competing fiercely among themselves, so how could they possibly miss this opportunity to shine in front of Su Quan?
Big Raven kicked the Gambit away, sending Gambit crashing into several tables and chairs. He staggered and had barely regained his footing when both Little Raven attacked him together.
Although Kayla and the Little White Queen were a step too slow, they didn't give up. They circled around behind Gambit, blocking his escape route and preventing him from running away.
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Hallucinatory Power (Gambit)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Psychic Isolation (Gambit)"
To be fair, Gambit is indeed quite skilled, with outstanding agility and excellent reaction ability, plus the ability to turn anything into a bomb. It won't be so easy for Little Raven to take him down quickly.
The restaurant was almost empty. The manager cautiously approached Su Quan's table, hesitant to speak.
"Here is two hundred thousand US dollars, which is the money for the venue booking and the losses incurred. Any more is yours, and any less will be made up later."
"Take the money and go downstairs."
Su Quan waved his hand, Nico Saint Croix, who was standing to the side, handed the suitcase containing the money to the manager.
Without any hesitation, the manager took the suitcase, nodded with a smile, and turned to leave.
Before leaving, he also tactfully sent the restaurant staff away.
The manager acted so decisively for two reasons: firstly, Su Quan was generous, and secondly, Su Quan had tested the effects of the Hallucinatory Power.
Well, while it's not as effective as using Psychic Abilities or Pheromone Virus directly, the results are still quite good.
Incidentally, both Hallucinatory Power and Psychic Isolation are categorized under Psychic Abilities.
The effect of Hallucinatory Power is to influence the consciousness of living beings, making them believe everything he says and agree with his ideas.
Therefore, it is clear that the previous statement by Gambit suggesting that Big Raven should be given a different owner was purely due to his frivolous personality and did not reflect his true intentions.
Otherwise, if the Hallucinatory Power is used directly, the unsuspecting Big Raven might actually fall for it!
He may escape the death penalty, but he can't escape punishment. He won't get away with this lesson.
During the fight, Gambit had retrieved his cane, which was actually a metal rod.
With a staff in hand, he moved with Hu Hu force, and actually managed to reverse some of his losing streak.
He is strong, and neither are the two Ravens. The older Raven is experienced, and the Little Raven Big Raven, after being strengthened, is proficient in countless fighting techniques.
With his escape route blocked, the Gambit persisted for a few more minutes before finally succumbing to defeat.
The metal rod was snatched by Little Raven's outstretched arm and thrown far away. Big Raven's high heel tip kicked him directly in the chin, making him jump slightly into the air before collapsing to the ground with a thud.
The Gambit was momentarily dazed, and then he saw the dark muzzle of a gun aimed at him.
"Hiss—" The Gambit, who was about to speak, gasped in pain and shouted angrily at Su Quan at the distant dining table, "Hey, at least let me die knowing why, right?"
Su Quan slowly reached out his hand to him, and the ground beneath him strangely turned into sand.
The hard ground turned into quicksand, sinking him completely, leaving only her head sticking out.
Immediately afterwards, the quicksand surged, pulling him to where he was.
The sand gradually solidified.
The feeling of suffocation made Gambit's expression turn serious and panicked.
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Potential and Kinetic Energy (Gambit)"
This ability is the power to turn objects into bombs by touching them, and it is also the core ability of the Gambit.
They were grouped together with the Bombshell's ability to turn any object into a bomb.
The two individuals' abilities are very similar in their manifestation, but they are different in essence.
The Bombshell turns anything she touches into a bomb.
Gambit injects energy into the object it touches, detonating it and creating a bomb-like effect.
Looking down at the Gambit, whose head was the only part of his body visible on the ground, Su Quan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't intend to kill you. If I wanted to, you wouldn't even have a chance to die knowing why."
"This is just a lesson for you. If you talk nonsense again next time, you can find a good burial site in advance. I guarantee that no one will be able to dig you up for a hundred or two hundred years."
The Gambit chuckled sheepishly, realizing why he had been reprimanded. Being straightforward, he readily apologized, stating that he had no ulterior motives and was simply being cheeky.
Having confirmed that Su Quan wasn't going to hold him back, the Gambit tentatively asked, "Can... can you let me out? I feel like I can't breathe."
Although his head was exposed, everything below his neck was buried in solid ground, and the pressure in his chest and lungs made every breath feel like a burning sensation, creating an extremely intense feeling of oppression.
Su Quan laughed and shook his head, "You managed to escape from Stryker, so the ground shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"
Gambit's expression changed, and he continued, "I heard that a Mutants Control Gravity escaped from Stryker with his men and is still hunting down the Mutants squad that Stryker used to form."
Su Quan shrugged. "It's me."
Gambit: "Stryker's affairs are none of my business, and I don't want to get involved."
Su Quan said with a smile, "Don't rush to say anything. I don't intend to drag you into this. I'm just curious about who captured you and how you escaped."
The Gambit said, "A guy wearing a name tag took me there. Later I realized something was wrong, so I pretended to surrender and secretly slipped away."
Nameplate?
Su Quan's first thought was Wolverine, after all, Wolverine's nameplate was a key prop and quite memorable.
On second thought, it probably wasn't Wolverine.
First of all, Wolverine didn't know Gambit. He met Gambit through Ghost and went to Stryker's base with Gambit's help.
Secondly Wolverine left the Mutants team a long time ago. He and Su Quan joined around the same time, and he left shortly after Su Quan joined.
If it's not Wolverine, and it still has a nameplate, then it can only be Sabretooth, who served in the military with Wolverine.
Chronologically speaking, Gambit should have been there when he escaped from Stryker.
There are probably two reasons why I didn't know about this.
