Chapter 404
Doctor Reyes was completely stunned!
I became your woman, but you want to kill me?
Su Quan's analysis of the situation was so clear that he was clearly not joking or speaking casually.
In other words...
You lied to me!
"You don't like me at all, you're not interested in me, and you're not here to gain prestige. You... you're here to seize power, you've betrayed the company!"
Doctor Reyes looked horrified, convinced he had guessed the truth, the whole truth.
To everyone's surprise, Su Quan shook his head and said with a smile, "Too small, too narrow-minded. I have no interest whatsoever in the meager power of the sanatorium. What interests me is the Magik, Wolfsbane, Moonstar, and you!"
Doctor Reyes took a deep breath and said, "Just tell me, what exactly do you want?"
"I came here specifically for you!" Su Quan said with a smile. "I won't hand over the people I've set my sights on to anyone else, so I'll take them with me."
"No, I disagree!" Doctor Reyes instinctively denied.
Su Quan shrugged. "You can't stop me, and you can't stop me."
Doctor Reyes sneered, "Why?"
"Because you're already one of my people, because I'm not Essex Corporation employee at all!"
"What? You... you're not from the company? That's impossible! I clearly checked your identities, you..."
"Fake!"
"I used my Psychic Abilities to alter your memories."
"You... you have Psychic Abilities?"
"I have many more skills!"
Doctor Reyes was stunned once again!
She thought Su Quan wanted to seize power, but it turned out Su Quan just wanted to take people away.
She thought Su Quan had betrayed the company, but it turned out that Su Quan wasn't even a member of the company.
She thought Su Quan only had Spatial Abilities, but it turned out that Su Quan also had Psychic Abilities, and he altered her memories on their first meeting.
It wasn't that she was slow to react; it was that things changed too quickly. Before she could even finish worrying about her own relationship, the person who had caused her distress brought up the issue of their stance.
Not only that, she is now in a dilemma!
If she chooses the company, she won't be able to get past Su Quan. Even if Su Quan spares her life out of consideration for their friendship last night and takes Yuexing and the others away, the company won't let her off the hook after such a huge blunder!
Whether we face Su Quan not, we're going to die anyway!
The only way to survive is to follow Su Quan down this dark path!
Doctor Reyes glared at Su Quan with a wronged expression. "Why, why are you doing this to me!"
She was indeed wronged. She let Su Quan get his hands on her without knowing why, and then she was forced into a corner. Anyone would feel wronged in her situation.
Su Quan sighed and shook his head, saying, "If I told you that I was doing this to save you and change your fate, would you believe me?"
Doctor Reyes scoffed, "You have indeed changed my destiny."
"I know you don't believe me, but... see for yourself!"
"Buzz!"
Using his Psychic Abilities, Su Quan projected the plot of the movie "The New Mutants" into Doctor Reyes's mind.
The vivid images and captivating scenes made Doctor Reyes feel as if he were glimpsing the future.
Without Su Quan and Laura's future, Magik has no future of escaping and disappearing...
In this future, the first half is not much different from the present, until Yuexing has her blood drawn again for a test, and Yuexing discovers the truth about the sanatorium from her own mind.
He then reported to the company, which instructed him to deal with Yuexing, ideally by causing her to die from his own loss of control over his abilities, or at least that's how it would appear on the surface.
Then, these birds she thought were fledglings turned upside down!
Wolfsbane severely injured Yuexing to save her, and the others also stood on the same side as them to resist them.
Although she had managed to suppress them, at the crucial moment, a giant Demon Bear suddenly appeared and killed her!
This Demon Bear was manifested by the Moon Star, but the Moon Star herself was unaware of it, and this Demon Bear was the source of her fear.
Magik unleashed his full firepower to withstand the Demon Bear, while the others protected the unconscious Moonstar. The battle was fierce, the sanatorium was almost reduced to ruins, and the young birds were in grave danger.
Finally, the moon star awoke, overcame its inner fears, and subdued the Demon Bear.
Darkness dissipates, and light descends.
They left the sanatorium together, and the scene ended there.
Doctor Reyes' eyes regained focus, and he staggered to sit down next to Su Quan, snatched the coffee from his hand, and gulped it down.
After a long silence, she said with difficulty, "I can't easily believe anything related to you right now, and I can't tell what's real and what's fake, but I still want to know what I just saw."
"Simply put, that's the real future, a future without my involvement."
"It's not that simple."
"That's because the child is motherless; it's a long story."
Doctor Reyes stared at him intently. "You still have the mind to make jokes at a time like this?"
Su Quan shrugged. "Alright, this all starts with my identity as the Lord of the Void. The Void is the end of timelines, and also the graveyard of timelines..."
Su Quan talked about the Void, the Time Variance Authority, the timeline, the Multiverse Marvel Main Universe he had Marvel, and finally the two X-Men timelines he had experienced, as well as his purpose in coming to this world.
This experience sounds somewhat shocking, but considering Su Quan's Spatial Abilities, the previous experiences of the Magik, and his purpose in wanting to take people away, Doctor Reyes felt that it was still very credible!
Putting everything else aside, just consider her desire to take the Magik away.
The company is no pushover either; its influence extends globally. Even if Su Quan is incredibly capable, no one can do anything to him, and he shouldn't expect to live a peaceful life with so many people.
But if he's planning to take these people to another world to start a new life, then it's no wonder he's so confident.
No matter how powerful or influential a company is, it can't possibly go to another world to capture them, right?
What are you planning to do?
Previously, Su Quan asked her that question, but now it's her asking Su Quan that question.
Su Quan said with a smile, "I'm going to show you the scenery of another world and let you get to know me in a new way."
No matter how well it is described, nothing beats seeing it with your own eyes. Doctor Reyes did not Essex Corporation voluntarily; he was forced to comply due to its immense power.
Not everyone can be indomitable!
Doctor Reyes had been driven to the brink. As long as he could let her witness a brighter future and resolve the worry of betraying Essex Corporation, the unbreakable bond they shared last night would surely make her forget the unpleasantness and follow him wholeheartedly from then on.
Su Quan ended his Cannonball practice early, informed Laura, and then took Doctor Reyes to the Hellfire Club in another world.
Then, I went to the X-Mansion Sun.
The X-Mansion and the X-Men of the New Mutants era are now history, but Doctor Reyes has heard of them.
This is enough to prove that this is another world!
After leaving X-Mansion, he wandered around outside for a while before returning to the Hellfire Club.
She drank some drinks, got to know the people at the club, and was amazed by the strangeness of the Little Ravens and the Little White Queens.
By the time she left the Hellfire Club and returned to the sanatorium in another world, she had completely believed what Su Quan had said and had truly decided to follow Su Quan down this dark path.
"What should we do next? Tell them the truth and take them away?"
Whether it was because of the alcohol, or because his predictable life had changed, or perhaps both, Doctor Reyes seemed unusually excited...
This was the first time Su Quan had seen her so excited since they met. Even last night, she maintained a certain mature and composed demeanor.
Seeing Doctor Reyes's slightly flushed cheeks and tipsy eyes, Su Quan smiled and said, "What we need to do now is rest. We can talk about the rest tomorrow!"
Nothing was said that night.
The next day, early morning.
Doctor Reyes, his face glowing and full of energy, called everyone together. Just when they thought they were about to share their psychological problems as usual, Doctor Reyes spoke up.
His first words stunned them.
"I deceived you. This sanatorium is controlled by the Essex Corporation and is a place that trains you newly awakened Mutants into assassins."
Even if you can reliably control your abilities and leave this place, you will never achieve true freedom!
After he finished speaking, there was silence.
Knowing the truth all along, Magik and Wolfsbane glanced at the calm Su Quan beside them, knowing that everything was under his control, and then watched the show with peace of mind.
The moon and stars seemed to be in a daze, while the Cannonball remained obedient, neither reacting immediately.
Only the Sunspots with impatient and fiery tempers are like lit bombs that explode immediately!
"What did you say? You actually want to train us to be assassins?!" Sunspot was furious, and flames instantly erupted from his body.
