Chapter 369
Although she has always been gentle, this is the first time I've seen Storm show such a girlish side of herself in all the time I've known her.
Su Quan looked at her, his Psychic Power flowing into her. After a moment, he shook his head slightly. "No, you are special. You possess the Phoenix Force."
"You, you have Psychic Abilities?" Jean Grey was startled at first, then realized what she meant and hurriedly asked, "The Phoenix Force you're talking about is that evil power within me?"
Su Quan smiled and said, "The Phoenix Force is not an evil force. It is the embodiment of life and Psychic Power in the Multiverse, symbolizing life and emotions."
"You feel it is evil because you are too weak to withstand its power, and you are constantly resisting it, believing it to be evil, which is why you feel it is evil."
Is that so...?
Jean Grey wasn't sure, but one thing she was certain of was that the Phoenix Force had a tremendous impact on her life.
It caused her to wake up from nightmares countless nights, afraid to sleep soundly, afraid to interact with people with peace of mind, and to be cautious and preoccupied every day, fearing that it would get out of control and hurt others!
"Can you take it?" Jean Grey asked hopefully.
Su Quan shook his head. "Yes and no! Even if I take away the Phoenix Force from your body, fragments of the Phoenix Force will still remain in your body. One day, you will have it again."
Jean Grey's expression darkened, then, as if remembering something, she asked again expectantly, "Can you help me control it?"
"Sure," Su Quan released her chin and asked with a smile, "But why should I help you?"
Why would someone help you for no reason?
Jean Grey hesitated, unable to speak.
Storm got up and walked over, asking Su Quan with a serious air, "What are your conditions? Tell me."
Su Quan looked at her and said with a half-smile, "If you stay with me, I'll help her."
Storm instantly glared at her and said coldly, "You wish!"
"So you don't agree? Then... goodbye!" Su Quan waved lazily, and with two whoosh sounds, Storm and Jean Grey instantly disappeared from the room.
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Mind Stone (Jean Grey)"
The sound of a reward dropping rang out. This was the second ability he had obtained from Jean Grey. He had already obtained an ability when he used his Psychic Powers on Jean Grey earlier, which was also the ability he wanted the most— Phoenix Force!
That's why he didn't hesitate to teleport Jean Grey and Storm away; otherwise, he would have stayed a while to farm Phoenix Force first.
Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, also known as X-Mansion.
Jean Grey and Storm stared at each other in stunned silence for a few seconds. Storm gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "That bastard, how... how did he do that!"
"It must be some kind of invisible teleportation ability. He has many abilities, not just a few! Let's go find the professor first. He might let us go, but he probably won't let Magneto go easily," Jean Grey said.
The two approached the professor and explained the situation.
Although they had only met once, the professor was very familiar with the name Su Quan and the man himself; in fact, he remembered him vividly.
After all, Raven, who had a deep connection with him and Magneto, was someone he had rescued back then and had even followed him.
After disappearing for twenty years, he finally reappeared.
"Go to the brainwave room."
Jean Grey and Storm pushed the professor to the brainwave room. On the way, the professor talked about his grudges with Su Quan from twenty years ago.
P. S.: The previous picture was of Jean Grey!
Professor X has mixed feelings about Su Quan. On one hand, he is grateful to Su Quan for saving Raven. On the other hand, Raven has acknowledged him as her master, which means she has completely severed ties with him and Magneto.
Then...
Su Quan is very strong and possesses many abilities, among which his Psychic Abilities are many times stronger than his own, which makes him, who prides himself on being the number one in Psychic Abilities, somewhat uneasy.
Now, it has been confirmed that he also possesses the ability to Control Magnetic Fields, and even more so than Magneto!
In other words, he and Magneto, these Mutants leaders who are both enemies and friends, are far inferior to Su Quan in terms of their respective abilities. It's no wonder that his feelings and attitude towards Su Quan are complicated!
In the brainwave room, the professor put on the helmet, activated the equipment, and his greatly enhanced Psychic Power quickly located Magneto. Through Magneto, he was able to see Su Quan again...
At this moment, Su Quan was considering whether or not to kill Magneto. Logically speaking, Magneto was doomed to die this time, but if he was killed off so early, who would take care of the aftermath? Without Magneto to handle the drama, we might miss out on a lot of excitement.
Besides, Big Raven probably hasn't seen her old friend Magneto since she was rescued, right?
Even though they've gone their separate ways and are practically strangers, if I were to kill Magneto, Big Raven would probably feel some regret and sadness, right?
Whether to kill or not is entirely up to him, and there's no difference between killing him now and killing him later. For Big Raven's sake, he can be given a chance to prove himself!
If they don't perform well, they're killed.
If he performs well, he can be sent to the Zombie Universe to mine Vibranium. His abilities are a perfect match, and he can definitely be as efficient as a hundred people!
"Huh?"
Su Quan exclaimed in surprise, a slight smile playing on his lips as he looked at the changed Magneto: "Long time no see, Charles."
"Long time no see, Su Quan."
The voice was still Magneto's, but everyone present knew it was someone else speaking.
Well, not everyone knew. Anna was a bit confused, unlike Nightwalker and Toad, who immediately realized that Professor X had controlled Magneto.
"How is she?" the professor asked about Big Raven.
Su Quan curled his lip. "I say, you bald... cripple... bald cripple, you've gone a bit too far. You come up here and ask me how my woman is. Do you have a death wish?"
"..."
"You know that's not what I meant. You also know about my relationship with Raven. You could say she's the little sister I watched grow up."
Su Quan tilted his head. "You want to be my brother-in-law?"
"..."
What the hell, brother-in-law? I didn't mean that at all. I just wanted you not to misunderstand.
The professor smiled wryly, speechless. It was the same when they met last time; he felt no politeness whatsoever towards him.
This time it was a bit better; he just jokingly called himself a bald cripple, unlike last time when he not only cursed but also physically assaulted someone.
"You hate me?" the professor asked, puzzled. "Why?"
Su Quan shrugged. "You're too much of a saint. We're not on the same page. I admire Magneto more than you."
Magneto?
Magneto?
This was the first time the professor had ever heard anyone call Magneto"Magneto," but the fact that Su Quan was calling him that didn't seem out of place or awkward to him.
The professor, going along with it, said, "Since you admire him, why not let him off the hook?"
Su Quan shook his head. "You think you can get rid of him with just a few words? You don't have that much influence with me."
"I don't have it, but Raven should, right? The harp and Storm you just brought back should have it too, right?"
Su Quan raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised that the professor would bring up Storm and Jean Grey. What did this bald cripple mean? Was it a honey trap?
You've changed. This isn't the Professor X I know.
"What's the meaning?"
"I would like to invite you to visit the college."
They just provide opportunities, without intervening in matchmaking.
The Academy instance is definitely a must-visit, since there are quite a few students there and a lot of interesting abilities. Jean Grey is alright, as she's relatively easy to fool because of the Phoenix Force, but Storm is not so easy to deal with.
Moreover, in addition to the Cerebro, the academy also has a Danger Room that can simulate environments and battles. This Dangerous Program is currently not considered intelligent artificial intelligence, but in the comics, it mutated into a life form similar to Ultron and Vision, and even joined the X-Men.
Danger possesses a mechanical body, can be equipped with various weapons, can create holograms and control other machines, and can store a large amount of data about the X-Men and use this knowledge to fight enemies...
Captain America Steve Rogers considers it a potential extinction-level threat!
Su Quan shook his head and said with a smile, "Whether you invite me or not, I will go to the academy. Besides, even if you don't invite me, what can you do if I go? Attack? Do you think you can beat me? Aren't you afraid I'll go on a killing spree?"
"You know I care about individuals, not factions or races, so this kind of invitation isn't enough to make me let your best buddy go!"
Professor: "What do you want?"
"First, I need the blueprints for the Cerebro and the program for the crisis; second, you cannot stop anyone who voluntarily comes with me."
"If you agree, I'll release Magneto. If you don't agree... remember to visit his grave and bring him flowers this time next year."
Professor: "It seems I have no choice but to agree."
See you at the academy later!
Su Quan waved his hand, teleporting Magneto and Toad away to avoid wasting time talking nonsense with Magneto after the professor left.
Isn't Nightcrawler more appealing?
Isn't the Phoenix Force amazing?
Su Quan instructed, "Anna, go to the front desk and book a suite. Also, tell them to include the loss of this room in the total and settle the accounts together later."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
