Chapter 410
"How could this be? You... you suppressed my abilities?"
"No, it's not containment, it's weakening. You've weakened my abilities!"
Takashi Matsuya reacted quickly, figuring out the state of his abilities after only a few attempts.
Su Quan was unsure of the specific effects of Weakening Aura, but judging from Takashi Matsuya's reaction, it was clear that the effect should be quite significant.
The ability to seize opportunities truly makes it the strongest support!
With a thought, Su Quan expanded the range of Weakening Aura to the entire laboratory.
Fanaticism and Collapse Stone, who were engaged in fierce battle with two generations of Silk Souls, instantly sensed that something was wrong.
The power that once allowed Fanaticism to shatter a wall with a single punch now only leaves a shallow dent, and the punch itself feels pain, subsequently swelling and turning red.
The changes in Bengshi were even more obvious. His petrified skin had actually degenerated, with its thickness and hardness significantly weakened, its defensive power greatly reduced, and even its size seemed to have shrunk considerably.
Their transformation immediately caught Sally and Laura's attention, and they took the initiative, unleashing a barrage of fighting techniques like a gazelle leaping over its horns.
"I'm giving you one last chance. Do you want to serve me?"
"Bah! Essex won't let you get away with this!"
Takashi Matsuya's unwavering attitude made Su Quan lose patience in recruiting him. Although his abilities were extremely valuable in scientific research, the abilities were already in his hands.
As for him personally...
It's nice to have someone willing to work for you, but it doesn't really matter if they're not.
Even if Butcher Zhang dies, we won't eat pork with hair on. No one is irreplaceable except ourselves!
"Since you insist, I have no choice but to grant your wish." Su Quan raised his hand expressionlessly and snapped his the Snap.
"Bang!"
Takashi Matsuya was furious.
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, and the pungent smell of blood filled the air.
Su Quan turned to face the computer, Void Battle Bead on his wrist, which he had modified with Takashi Matsuya's ability, extended into a data cable.
Connect the data cable to the computer.
" On Friday, a global search will be launched for laboratories linked to Essex Corporation."
"Okay, boss."
Friday's voice was somewhat cheerful because when Su Quan used her abilities to modify the Void Battle Bead, she endowed it with several powerful functions. Now, she is omnipotent in the field of the internet.
No matter how powerful Essex's firewall is, or how well information is hidden, any action will leave a trace, and as long as a trace is left, she can find it!
It's useless if you don't connect to the internet or turn on the computer.
The abilities Su Quan was given through his transformation were simply unscientific and illogical!
On the monitor, all sorts of information flashed by rapidly. Even with his exceptional Dynamic Vision, Su Quan felt dizzy and his eyes became dry after staring at it for a while.
"Bang!"
The door to the room was pushed open, and Sally and Laura walked in looking a little disheveled.
It goes without saying that they have already solved the problems of rockfall and frenzy.
To be fair, while Mutants possess powerful and diverse abilities, they have been targeted too severely and have too many weaknesses.
Sentinel Program, Hound Program, collars to suppress mutant abilities, equipment to identify Mutant Gene, and so on...
Humans have come up with countless methods to target Mutants!
There are also many Mutants -Mutants abilities, such as Opportunity which can weaken Mutants abilities, Jimmy which can eliminate Mutants abilities.
In the world of [The Gifted], which is also the world where Miss Polaris lives, there is a Mutants named Pulse who can suppress the abilities of Mutants!
Once Mutants lose their powers, especially suddenly, they are like Devil Fruit users in One Piece who are handcuffed with Seastone – nine times out of ten, they are at the mercy of others.
In addition...
Mutants have an even more fatal weakness: the Terrigen Mist that awakened the Inhumans is an extremely deadly toxin for Mutants.
Take a puff, and your family and friends can wait to enjoy the feast.
In contrast, while Super Soldier may not have a wide variety of superpowers, they are more stable and have almost no weaknesses.
The only, or rather the most obvious, weakness is that it's not strong enough!
"All done. There are 221 laboratories in total, and their locations have all been marked."
"Boss, your identity and actions have been exposed. Essex Corporation has dispatched its strongest Mutants, who are expected to arrive within five minutes."
Friday's voice rang out, and at the same time, the data cable connected to the computer was retracted.
Su Quan was not surprised by his exposure. Given the power and size of Essex Corporation, it would be surprising if they didn't discover what he had done.
He was more curious about Mutants in the Essex Corporation was!
" On Friday, let's talk about this strongest Mutants."
"Boss, Essex Corporation's strongest Mutants aren't just one; this time they've come out in full force, namely..."
"Joseph, codenamed New Magneto, has the ability to create and Control Magnetic Field. According to the files, he is a clone of Magneto."
"Nate Gray, codenamed X-Man, possesses the abilities of telekinesis and Mind Stone. According to the files, he was created from the genes of Cyclops and Jean Grey."
"Karima Shapanda, codenamed Ultimate Sentinel, possesses Super Strength, Super Endurance, Super Speed, Super Reflexes, as well as the ability to Space Teleportation, fly, heal, and regenerate. According to the files, she is a modified cyborg covered in high-tech weapons."
"Laura Kinney, codename X-23, possesses powerful Self-Healing Ability and Adamantium claws. According to the files, she is a clone of Wolverine."
"Kiden Nikos, codenamed Nothing, possesses the ability to Time Stop for everything except himself."
After Friday's presentation, Su Quan was somewhat taken aback.
A clone of Magneto, a clone of Wolverine, a child created using Cyclops and Jean Grey's genes, a cyborg, a time-manipulating Metahuman...
As expected of Essex Corporation?
It's hard to say which of these five Mutants is the strongest, but the most famous, popular, and well-known is definitely Wolverine's clone.
X-23!
"I'm a little curious. I haven't had any direct dealings with Essex Corporation yet, so why have they sent them all out as if it were a decisive battle? This doesn't make sense!"
They came out in full force right from the start, was it really necessary to be so cautious?
Shouldn't the normal procedure be to proceed one step at a time?
First, send someone to die, and if they fail, don't take it seriously. Then keep sending people until you suffer heavy losses, and only then do you start to face your mistakes and go all out.
Why is Essex Corporation not playing by the rules?
"She is a Mutants named Chen Susannie, codenamed Shaking. She can slow down or even stop the passage of time for several minutes. She can also recreate past scenes and travel freely in past fantasies, and others can also see the illusions."
"She recreated the scene of the sanatorium in the past and realized your abilities, boss."
Friday explained the reason.
"Another time-manipulating Mutants. Essex Corporation's resources are truly impressive..."
This Chen Susannie can slow down the flow of time and reveal historical influences. In other words, the Essex Corporation already knows about the abilities she used in the sanatorium, including traveling to other universes. That's why they mobilized all their resources and sent five of their strongest Mutants.
This also means that Mr. Sinister already knows about him and is keeping an eye on him.
Su Quan didn't believe he didn't have ideas about the ability to travel through the universe!
"Boom!"
A loud bang came from above, Su Quan released an energy Defense Field to cover himself, Sally, and Laura.
Immediately afterwards, the ceiling shook, and pebbles and dust fell down in scattered drops.
The entire ceiling was ripped off.
With stars and a crescent moon hanging high in the sky, several figures landed with a thud, appearing in a line in front of Su Quan.
Five people, two men and three women.
Standing in the center is a young man with long white hair. His hands are glowing with Magneto-kinesis energy, and the ceiling that was lifted up is probably his doing.
It is obvious that he is Magneto's clone— the New Magneto, Joseph.
"Boom!"
Joseph waved his hand, and the ceiling fell down again.
"..."
Isn't that what you call going to the unnecessary lengths?
If you want to come in, can't you just go through the door? If you think going through the door isn't cool enough or impressive enough, you can have the Ultimate Sentinel teleport you in, or have Kiden Nikos Time Stop and make a teleportation entrance.
Su Quan looked to Joseph's left and right. To his left was a man with a single eye that shone with electricity. Without a doubt, he was X-Man.
On the other side of X-Man is a black woman wearing Cloak- like long dress, her body covered with many weapons that look somewhat out of place.
Her appearance clearly identifies her as the Ultimate Sentinel.
To Joseph's right was a young, long-haired woman wearing a black bodysuit. She wore a hood and mask, obscuring her features, but her eyes were cold, radiating an aura that kept strangers at bay.
