Chapter 445
That "hehe" was quite insightful. Lorna instantly realized that the elderly Magneto must have suffered a loss at Su Quan's hands.
"Who else among us have you met?" Lorna asked with interest.
Others were also curious.
Su Quan shook his head. John, Xian Zhe, Sonia, and even Lorna were all people he was meeting for the first time in all the worlds he had experienced.
"The timeline is different in each world. This is the post- X-Men era. I have a lot of contact with Magneto, Professor X, Mystique, the White Queen, and Storm."
"The Void Island currently have two Mystique and two White Queen. In the future, there will be two Storm, two Black Kings, two Psylocke, two Jubilee, two Nightcrawler, and so on."
"Oh, right, there are two more flashes!"
Goodness, one isn't enough, they're all in pairs?
Everyone was feeling strange; on one hand, they were curious about the other 'self,' and on the other hand, they were glad that they were the only ones.
Aside from Clarice, she was only curious now...
A light drizzle fell from the sky, the raindrops small and the rain curtain dense, as if draping the forest and mountains in a gossamer veil.
The sound of rain pattered down, and footsteps approached from behind, carrying a familiar, delicate fragrance.
Su Quan, who was admiring the rain scene by the window, turned around and smiled at Sonia, who had red hair, saying, "You're back."
Sonia put her arm around Su Quan and replied with a smile, "You're back. This is my fourth time visiting Void Island this month. Void Island is changing so fast, it's changing so much."
Su Quan stroked her hair and said with a light laugh, "Many hands make light work."
Sonia exclaimed, "Including the people we sent this time, there are now more than 300 people on Void Island. In just over a month, we have helped more Mutants than all of them combined before."
Sonia gazed at the man before her with tender affection.
A little over a month ago, this man made them aware of the existence of Parallel World and the Void Island.
It was this man who gave the Mutants a peaceful and safe home!
"You are their hero, and you are my hero!"
Su Quan chuckled lightly, "It's a pity that even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman. When I, a hero, see a beauty like you, I'd rather lean on the wall than not!"
Sonia gave him a disapproving look, saying, "That's nice of you. When have you ever leaned against a wall? Every time, it was me who helped you..."
At that moment, Clarice walked over with a somber expression.
"Su Quan."
"Sonia."
Clarice greeted the two of them and said in a sorrowful voice, "I just received news that my adoptive parents were killed by the Sentinel Special Services Bureau."
Sonia's expression changed. She released Su Quan and grabbed Clarice's hand. "I'm sorry, you... please accept my condolences."
Clarice said in a deep voice, "They are good people. If they hadn't taken me in, I might not be alive today. So for me, this is war!"
Sonia hesitated, "They... they did it because of you..."
Clarice shook her head. "I only recently found out that they've been in contact with our underground organization and have been helping Mutants."
"There happened to be a group of Mutants who needed help there, and then the Sentinel Special Services Bureau discovered them. I...I went to the scene. It was a mess, with blood everywhere."
Clarice forced a smile, "The good news is that some people have escaped. They were taken in by a kind priest and are hiding in a church called Eternal Grace."
Su Quan patted Clarice on the shoulder. "Let's go, let's go take a look."
Clarice threw out Teleportation Crystal, and the three of them traveled through the Teleportation Portal to the Church of Eternal Grace, where they met the priest.
After identifying themselves and explaining their purpose, the pastor led them to a warehouse that was blocked by shipping containers.
"After the incident, twelve people escaped here, and several others are still wandering outside."
As the pastor spoke, he struggled to push aside the container blocking the door.
Seeing that he had a full head of white hair and was quite old, Su Quan immediately helped push the container out.
Effortless and effortless.
The pastor nodded to Su Quan and opened the door to the storeroom.
"It's okay, come out. They are friends and will take you to a safe place."
Hearing the pastor's comforting words, people inside gradually came out. There were men and women, young and old, and they were all in relatively stable condition.
In the crowd, a blonde girl wearing a black T-shirt looked around and walked straight toward Su Quan.
Upon approaching Su Quan, the blonde girl whispered, "I need to talk to you."
Su Quan looked at her and smiled.
After searching high and low without finding it, it came to me effortlessly—it's finally your turn to shine!
He asked, feigning ignorance, "What's wrong?"
The blonde girl stated frankly, "I am a mind reader. When I get close enough, I can sense other people's thoughts. I sensed some very strange ideas from one of them."
Su Quan deliberately looked at those people. "Is it that big guy?"
"No."
Just then, the big guy left, revealing a thin girl who had been hidden from view.
The girl had her back to them, short hair, and at first glance looked like a tomboy.
It's her.
The blonde girl looked at her and said with certainty.
Su Quan glanced at the blonde girl and walked towards the short-haired girl.
"Hello, ma'am, what's your name?"
The short-haired girl glanced at it from the side, then turned back without responding.
This reaction is very strange.
Clarice and Sonia noticed the situation and, with serious expressions, prepared to come over.
Knowing she might have been exposed, the short-haired girl turned around, threw her backpack on the ground, and fiercely kicked Su Quan.
That kick was very powerful and very sudden.
"Bang!"
Su Quan took the kick but didn't budge, while the short-haired girl let out a muffled groan and flew backward, falling to the ground.
The short-haired girl, her expression one of shock, painfully got up and instantly appeared in front of Sonia with superhuman speed. She shoved Sonia to the ground with one hand and then kicked Clarice away in the blink of an eye.
With two loud thuds, Sonia and Clarice fell to the ground almost simultaneously.
Immediately afterwards, the short-haired girl appeared in front of the blonde girl with lightning speed, grabbed her arm, slammed her to the ground, and then delivered a heavy punch.
"Bang!"
The blonde girl let out a muffled groan, clutching her lower abdomen with both hands in pain, writhing and turning.
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Dream Smoke (Dreamer)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Super Speed (Chloe)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected, reward dropped: Mind Stone, "5;;;7:: Sense (Esme)"
Clarice's abilities had already been unlocked, so this time the drops were Points.
The short-haired girl's name is Chloe, her ability is Super Speed, and her identity—she has a mark tattooed on her wrist, the same mark that Pulse has on his wrist.
This is the symbol of the Trask, and also the symbol of the hound.
In other words, she was Dr. Campbell's hunting dog!
Sonia, Clarice, and Esme were all knocked down by her. At this moment, her eyes were ferocious, and she stared at Su Quan with a fierce expression. She once again activated her Super Speed and threw a punch.
"Well..."
Just as her fist was about to hit Su Quan, a hand grabbed her neck from behind and lifted her up.
Chloe groaned in pain, her eyes widening instantly.
Su Quan, who was standing before me, had vanished.
"Your speed is a bit slow."
Su Quan's voice came from behind her.
Chloe was stunned. When... when did he appear behind her?
He's faster than me!
Chloe was terrified. She gripped the hand that was choking her neck tightly with both hands, trying desperately to break free.
