Chapter 401

But...

It failed!

"Space Distortion, a little trick to manipulate space," Su Quan explained with a smile.

Doctor Reyes looked rather grim; the ability she relied on was useless against Su Quan.

"You can not only break my Energy Field, but you can also seal my abilities!"

The inability to release Energy Field is essentially the same as having one's abilities sealed.

Su Quan shrugged. "Space is king, you know. Unless the other party can also manipulate space, and is even stronger than me, no matter what kind of space-related ability they have, it won't work on me."

Doctor Reyes frowned slightly, asking with a mixture of curiosity and confusion, "With your abilities, why would you come here to gain experience?"

The ability to manipulate space is so powerful that it's no wonder the company doesn't care about his resume.

Whether or not he's gilded is irrelevant. As long as his ability bar says "manipulate space," even if he's just joined the company, he can become a core figure overnight.

Only employees with average abilities need to embellish their resumes and have impressive credentials!

Su Quan smiled brightly, "Because my target is Nathaniel Essex."

Doctor Reyes was taken aback and began to understand. Su Quan was clearly not satisfied with just joining the core layer; he wanted to rise to the top in one step and head straight for the mysterious big boss.

Only those with both ability and talent have a chance of being valued by a big boss!

"Have you seen him?" Su Quan asked, feigning curiosity.

He was referring to Nathaniel Essex.

Doctor Reyes shook his head with a self-deprecating smile, "Do you know how many such sanatoriums there are? The company's influence spans the globe. I've never even met a senior executive, let alone the big boss."

"Speaking of which, I'm a little curious. Why did you choose to get your resume professionally trained here? There are many places with better conditions and higher standards, aren't there?"

Su Quan smiled and said, "But you're not in those places..."

Here we go again...

Doctor Reyes couldn't help but want to cover his face, really wanting to know how Su Quan managed to be so shameless!

When you were flirting with me, did you not think about Laura, Liana, or Wolfsbane?

Fine, even if you didn't think about them, you didn't think about me either?

On my very first day here, I called Wolfsbane into my room. Do you think I didn't know?

And Laura...

She's not Mutants at all, just an ordinary person. Under normal circumstances, the company would never send an ordinary person here. Not only did she come, but she also acted like she was completely at your beck and call. Do you think I can't see what kind of relationship you two have?

They make no attempt to hide their true intentions.

Not only do you not try to hide it, but how dare you flirt with me?

I admit that in order to complete the company's tasks over the years, I have had little opportunity to contact the outside world while staying alone in a remote sanatorium, and I also lack experience in this area.

But that doesn't mean I'm naive, ignorant, or easily fooled!

Doctor Reyes took a deep breath and said seriously, "Whether you're serious or joking, I hope you won't say things like that again."

"What kind of talk? Like you said, if there were better conditions and a higher level of service, why would I choose this place?"

Su Quan answered his own question, then continued, "Perhaps you think I'm joking, but I'm serious!"

Doctor Reyes was somewhat taken aback, and also somewhat moved. Could he really be serious? Was he really... really here because of me?

That's it?

You're really not naive, not ignorant, and not easily fooled!

"Let's change the subject. Don't you find it lonely and boring to stay here all the time selecting and training new people for the company?"

What are your dreams?

"Dreams..." Doctor Reyes was somewhat dazed. How long had it been since he had heard that word?

"My dream is to become a doctor."

"A doctor who studies Mutants?"

"..."

"No, they are doctors who heal and save lives."

Su Quan looked at her and asked in a low voice, "Did you join the company voluntarily?"

Doctor Reyes narrowed his eyes, glanced at Su Quan for a few seconds, and said in a deep voice, "Let's stop here for now, I have something to do later."

"Okay, then I won't bother you any longer." Su Quan stood up with a normal expression, as if the question he just asked was really just a casual one.

Although Doctor Reyes did not answer, the answer was obvious.

If she had Essex Corporation voluntarily, she wouldn't have reacted this way.

In this world, how many people, especially Mutants, dare to rebel against the Essex Corporation?

You either become an employee of Essex Corporation, or you become data in Essex Corporation's Mutant Gene bank.

Being forced to join is normal.

Of course, this is not to whitewash him, after all, many Mutants must have died because of her during her many years in the nursing home.

In the movie, she was about to kill Yuexing, but was saved by Wolfsbane and the Magik, and eventually died there.

Su Quan didn't care whether she was black or white; what he cared about was whether he could get her to switch sides, become one of his own, and obey his orders.

Now it seems that she may not be entirely loyal to the company!

Back in his room, Su Quan closed his eyes and lay down, simultaneously releasing his Psychic Abilities to search for Mr. Sinister and the Red Queen in this world.

"Buzz!"

In a mere instant, the Psychic Power has already covered the entire Earth.

Next, meaning scanning.

A barrage of information rushed into his mind.

Suddenly, a piece of information caught his attention.

This information came from a Korean girl who didn't know her own name. She had a code name, Opportunity. The reason she caught Su Quan's attention amidst the vast amount of information was because of her special mutant ability.

She can weaken or enhance the abilities of the Mutants around her.

This is a rare support Mutants!

Having her around is like having Weakening Aura on the enemy and Amplification Aura on your teammates; this ebb and flow can easily change the course of the battle.

Such talent and ability should not be let slip by.

Mark this down!

Then, continue the search for Mr. Sinister and the Red Queen.

"Huh, yet another special ability."

After a moment, Su Quan's thoughts came to a halt.

"Takashi Matsuya, codenamed Little Wizard, has the ability to modify any machine to perform any function he can think of."

"Not bad, not bad, we can throw it into the Void for scientific research."

Mark it down.

Continue.

This time, a full half hour passed without finding any other abilities of interest, but they did find a clone of Mr. Sinister.

This clone is still dormant. Without activation, it has no memories or consciousness; in a sense, it does not exist.

Su Quan's Psychic Abilities did not allow him to directly locate the clone; rather, he learned about the clone through an employee in the laboratory where it was located.

Who is Mr. Sinister?

That's the Supreme Being of the Dao of Deception, how could he possibly let anyone know the information and location of his clone?

After all, a clone is like a life; one clone is one life, one chance to be resurrected!

This clone was only recently created, Mr. Sinister shouldn't have had time to silence the lab staff or erase their memories yet.

"Looks like I'm in luck." Su Quan's lips curled into a smile.

Although he knew the location of the Mr. Sinister clone, he had no intention of doing anything.

Mr. Sinister's clones are like Ultron robots in the Ultron Legion; eliminating one is pointless and would only alert the enemy.

If you can't eliminate all the clones in one fell swoop, then don't expect to eliminate him.

If he wanted to hide, even if you dug three feet into the ground, you might not be able to find him.

So... mark it down.

Then continue.

Time flies by, and before we knew it, the sun had already set outside.
