Chapter 425

Xian Zhe did not force him, and turned to look at Su Quan.

Su Quan said directly, "I have the same real name as her, and I don't need to contact anyone."

Xian Zhe shrugged. "Here's the thing, you'll stay here with us for a few days to lay low, and then we'll find you a place to stay."

Clarice nodded her thanks. "Okay, thank you."

Just then, the sound of arguing came from not far away; John was arguing with a very beautiful woman.

"John, we need to find Lorna. We can form a small team..."

"What are you doing? Sending your team to their deaths? Sonia, we barely escaped from a dozen or so police officers, do you want to fight a hundred now? We can't take that risk right now."

"When will that be? The X-Men? The Brotherhood of Mutants? We don't even know if they still exist! We're isolated and helpless, being defeated one by one!"

"Look here, doing that would put the people here in danger, and all their efforts could be in vain, all that Lorna built!"

The argument between John and Sonia ended without a resolution. Sonia turned and left, while John took a deep breath and walked over.

The Xian Zhe nodded to him, then got up and left.

John looked at Su Quan and Clarice, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. He looked closely for a few moments, then frowned and asked Su Quan, "Where's your knife?"

John hadn't forgotten Su Quan's spectacular entrance—the man was on the knife, the knife was in the air—but he hadn't seen the knife when Su Quan ran away or when Su Quan got out of the car.

Such a conspicuous silver longsword couldn't have been lost so easily, could it?

You mean it?

Su Quan waved his hand, causing space to slightly distort, and a silver longsword fell, appearing out of thin air in front of John.

John was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Where was it before?"

"It's always by my side. I can put it away or summon it at any time."

Su Quan waved his hand again, and the silver longsword seemed to sink into the sea, disappearing into thin air.

John asked in surprise, "So you have two abilities? One is the same as Lorna's, and the other is summoning this sword?"

Su Quan smiled without saying a word and shook his head slightly.

My abilities are not limited to two, and they have nothing to do with this knife.

"John."

Just as John was about to ask further questions, the Xian Zhe had just left called out to him from a room not far away.

John hurried over.

At the same time, the sound of television news began to play.

"Breaking news: Mutants attack has occurred at a high school in Bellevue District. We believe that two mutant children are the perpetrators of this terrorist attack."

"According to sources, federal authorities will intervene in the investigation, as the video footage shows..."

John looked at the news and said in a low voice, somewhat dejectedly, "If the situation wasn't considered difficult before, it certainly is now."

Xian Zhe and Sonia, who had rushed over upon hearing the news, remained silent. They knew that they not only had to save Lorna, but also the two mutant children mentioned in the news.

Because that's the mission of the Mutant Underground Organization, and that's what they've always been doing.

"That Su Quan you brought back... does he really have a relationship with Lorna?" Xian Zhe suddenly asked in a low voice.

Sonia was taken aback and looked at John: "What's going on? Is he related to Lorna?"

John shook his head and said hesitantly, "It's not certain yet, but he has the same abilities as Lorna, and seems to be even stronger Lorna."

"Lorna mentioned him and asked him what his relationship was with him, and he said they had no relationship."

He kept coming and going, which sounded a bit chaotic, but Xian Zhe and Sonia understood. One "he" referred to Su Quan, and the other "he" referred to the famous Magneto!

Sonia just mentioned the Brotherhood of Mutants, so it's impossible that she doesn't know Magneto, the leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants.

Lorna possesses the same abilities as Magneto, and their relationship is practically an open secret within the Mutant Underground Organization.

Now another Su Quan has appeared, possessing the same abilities as Lorna and Magneto, so it's natural for them to make connections.

"He... he doesn't look like he's mixed race?" Xian Zhe said hesitantly.

She couldn't see any mixed-race features in Su Quan's face.

The implication is that he is unlikely to be Magneto's son or anything like that, since Magneto is a purebred European.

If he's not Magneto's son, then he has nothing to do with Lorna.

"Perhaps... it's just a coincidence that I have the same ability?" Sonia said.

John shook his head. "Whether or not there is a connection, we can only take it one step at a time now. If... I mean if, he really is related to Lorna, he probably doesn't want to acknowledge her. His attitude towards Lorna and his reaction after Lorna was arrested are both a bit strange."

"How about I give it a try?" Sonia volunteered, and without waiting for John's reply, she went straight to find Su Quan.

P. S.: The picture is of Xian Zhe!

"Hi, I'm Sonia." Sonia approached Su Quan and asked directly, "I heard you have the same abilities as Lorna. What's your relationship?"

Dreamer: Sonia Simonson, I know you. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you are the Asgard banshee Lorelei.

To be called a banshee, you must be very beautiful, even if... you are now Mutants dreamer.

Su Quan looked at her and said with a smile, "I'll answer your question, and you answer mine, okay?"

Sonia nodded readily. "Okay, go ahead and ask."

"Do you have a boyfriend?"

Sonia paused for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No! It's your turn. Answer my question."

Su Quan glanced at John and Xian Zhe who had followed him, and smiled at Sonia, saying, "Lorna and I can't say we're completely unrelated..."

There really is a connection!

Sonia was overjoyed and was about to ask what their relationship was when she heard Su Quan continue.

"It's not that we're completely unrelated, but rather that we're completely unrelated."

"..."

Sonia was stunned when she first heard about nonsensical literature, John and the Xian Zhe were stunned, and even Clarice, who was just watching from the sidelines, was stunned.

"You... you're playing me?" Sonia glared fiercely, her teeth clenched.

Come on, tell me, what's the difference between having absolutely no relation and being completely unrelated?

Feeling cheated, Sonia took a deep breath, ready to unleash a torrent of profanity.

Don't get me wrong, she wasn't going to curse.

The term "speaking eloquently" is exactly what it sounds like; she can exhale pink smoke, which allows her to view, retrieve, or implant memories into a target who inhales it.

This is her mutant ability, and it's why she's called the Dreamer.

"He... he's not quite right here," Clarice quickly said, trying to comfort Su Quan.

In her heart, Su Quan was much closer than these people in the Mutant Underground Organization, even though she had only known them for a short time.

"Sonia."

John, noticing that Sonia wanted to use her ability, shook his head with a serious expression.

Sonia reluctantly gave up her plan and asked Su Quan, "Lorna was captured to save you. We need to go save her. Are you coming?"

Su Quan said with a smile, "Actually, I admire you. Even though you are in darkness yourself, you always want to bring light to others."

"But don't always imagine yourself as the exception. If you walk by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. Lorna was captured because she was too brave and because she thought too highly of herself."

"Although it may sound harsh, we did not ask for your help. We can leave safely without you."

"You offered to help us, but when things went wrong, you blamed us. That's not fair, is it?"

Good medicine tastes bitter, and the truth can be hurtful.

Su Quan's words sounded harsh, but they were indeed true. Under normal circumstances, Lorna, who was covering the rear, would not have been captured. It was her own lapse in judgment that caused her to miss the opportunity to evacuate.

Besides...

Your initiative to help is indeed worthy of gratitude and is truly admirable. Su Quan seems ungrateful and even made sarcastic remarks.

But he certainly wouldn't stand idly by; he would definitely rescue Lorna, which is why he had the confidence to say these things.

But what about Sonia? Her very first words sound like moral blackmail; who else would she criticize if not her?

"How... how could you say that!" Sonia felt indignant for Lorna and was so angry she felt like she was about to explode. She turned and left.

Xian Zhe and John were also somewhat dissatisfied. They glanced at Su Quan and then turned and left.

Clarice sighed and patted Su Quan on the shoulder, "You shouldn't say that. No matter what, they saved us. You say Lorna is arrogant, but aren't you arrogant too? Without them, do you really think we could have left safely?"

No way, no way, you don't really think those dozen or so policemen can catch me, do you?

Never mind, we have different styles of doing things.

When Mutant Underground Organization face the police, they have only one thought: run!
