Chapter 51

Buzz!!

At that moment, a surging shell of Telekinesis slammed head-on into Cain Marko.

It was as if Mount Tai had come crashing down from the sky. With a thunderous boom, the immensely muscular man's knees buckled, and he was forced to the ground.

Boom!!

The earth gave way, splitting apart beneath the downward pressure of the Telekinesis and forming a crater.

"Ah!!"

Juggernaut roared, the bulging muscles on his back straining against the force pressing down on him. But the power of the Telekinesis was simply too terrifying. With another bang, his entire body fell flat, leaving him prostrate before Su Chen.

"Whether you live or die is up to me."

Su Chen spoke coldly.

But he also noticed something unusual about the man. Faint traces of magical energy swirled within him. He was not simply a Mutant.

Or perhaps... he was merely a supernatural being who had slipped in among the Mutants.

Crack!!

Cain Marko clenched his teeth, but his supposedly indestructible body could not force itself upright.

"This man is a member of the Brotherhood of Mutants, a loyal subordinate of Magneto. He might look stupid, but his body is incredibly hard to destroy, and his strength is practically inexhaustible. He's recovered from serious injuries many times."

Multiple Man explained from the side.

Yet the man who was said to be indestructible and possess inexhaustible strength was now sprawled on the ground, unable to move.

"I give up..."

"You really are stronger than Magneto!! You're the true king of the Mutants!"

Juggernaut, Cain Marko, shouted, thoroughly convinced.

His righteous, ferocious, overbearing manner from moments ago vanished without a trace. He even reached out toward Su Chen, trying to beg him for mercy.

"You saved my life, and you're strong. As long as you give me three meals a day, I'll work for you for the rest of my life!!"

He really is stupid...

Su Chen's impression of the man as an idiot only deepened. He finally understood why the people in the surrounding cells all shared the same opinion of him.

A simpleminded, pigheaded fool.

The people around them did not dare laugh, though. Most held it in. After all, his arm alone was thicker than their waists. Who would dare provoke such a dimwitted monster?

"Two meals a day, then? Otherwise I won't have the strength to work..."

Cain Marko seemed to sense Su Chen's hesitation.

"But just now, you kept talking about avenging Magneto. You sure gave in quickly."

Multiple Man could not help commenting.

"I only follow whoever has the bigger fist. He's stronger than Magneto, so naturally he's the king of the Mutants."

Juggernaut spoke as if it were perfectly reasonable.

His extremely dim-witted mind was much like that of an animal in the wild: beat him into submission, and he would naturally acknowledge you as king.

Su Chen could not be bothered to argue with a fool like him. The surging waves of Telekinesis dissipated into the air.

Chapter 51

"You can leave now."

Su Chen had no intention of saying much to these poor Mutants.

"You don't need us?"

Multiple Man was somewhat agitated.

Juggernaut, Cain Marko, who had just gotten to his feet, also looked a little stunned, his face still bearing a foolish expression.

Rather than being told to leave, Multiple Man had hoped to see him raise his arm and rally them with a declaration of "War on humanity."

But...

Despite his excitement, Multiple Man calmed down. At the very least, what he had imagined was indeed unlikely to come from this cold, heartless young man.

He wanted to say more, but the chill radiating from the young man's handsome, sharply defined face made him seem unapproachable.

He swallowed, finally realizing that this was someone even more terrifying than Magneto.

"I understand. Whenever you need us, we'll be there."

"Only you can save the Mutants."

Living up to his nickname, Multiple Man split into numerous copies. They dragged the thoroughly unwilling Juggernaut along and led the Mutants past Su Chen toward the passage at the end of the corridor.

Soon.

They ran through the vast, empty corridors of the experimental base, their faces full of astonishment, as though they had seen a ghost.

"Where did everyone go?"

Apart from their footsteps, the silence was frightening.

Where were the guards?

Where were the Weapon X personnel?

Where were the researchers in white coats?

Everyone felt a deep chill.

There was no blood, not the slightest trace of a fight. The people stationed at the experimental base had simply vanished, as though they had evaporated into thin air, erased out of nowhere.

At that moment, perhaps only the dimwitted Juggernaut was running wild toward the exit, his face full of excitement.

Even Multiple Man was thoroughly unnerved. Like the other Mutants fleeing with him, he had gained an entirely new understanding of the number one Mutant's power.

The cold, heartless young man now seemed shrouded in another layer of mystery.

"Come on. Some of us are good at spatial movement. We won't need to trouble anyone else, and we'll be out of here soon."

The noisy voices overhead gradually faded away. Su Chen, who had stayed behind, did not linger much longer either.

Buzz!!

He opened his right hand slightly, and an invisible wave of Telekinesis surged forth. A black box device buried dozens of meters underground was instantly crushed to pieces from afar.

This time, Su Chen would leave no traces.

After all, the hacker girl he had never met had specifically marked the experimental base's most critical black box device.

Last time, it was the black box that had exposed Su Chen's escape, setting off a chain reaction that led to a series of major events.

Although he no longer cared, he did not want people spying on him.

"All right, time to leave."

He had come this time for revenge, but also to demonstrate his power.

So.

After making sure all the unfortunate Mutants had left.

As he departed, Su Chen released all the energy he had accumulated within him. His magic, as well as the evil god's energy he had absorbed earlier, all turned into a violent flood that swept over every building around him.

The walls and even the metal partitions were as fragile as sheets of paper.

In the blink of an eye, a terrifying light of energy swallowed the entire large-scale experimental base.

Because the base was buried deep within a mountain, the entire mountain range began to collapse, and the dam extending beyond the mountain began to crumble as well.

With all that done.

He vanished into thin air, controlling several mental puppets.

Manhattan District, Yorktown City.

That same night.

In an enormous freight warehouse district.

The puppet-like Weapon X personnel had been placed in one of Supergirl's concealed warehouses, which was also one of her and Big Daddy's safe houses.

Although the weapons stockpile was not as extensive as the previous one, it was enough to meet many of Mindy's needs.

"We'll have to go all out tomorrow. I need to get ready too."

Mindy took a fully automatic rifle from the rack.

"Sometimes I envy you two. You have extraordinary abilities, and all that jumping around is much easier for you than it is for me."

Hit-Girl had some complaints.

After all, training her into a fighting machine like this had wasted an entire childhood, not to mention a great deal of effort.

If she could use molecular mimicry to pass through any object like Su Shan, how great would that be!!

"Actually, you don't need to do anything tomorrow. Just look after Su Shan."

Su Chen spoke calmly.

Tomorrow was the day of General Stryker's public trial. He had naturally already made plans to kill the instigator once and for all before the eyes of the world.

The stage had been set!

With the whole world watching the live broadcast, he would kill the root of this evil.

Only then could he vent the resentment in his heart.

This was not just for himself.

It was also to put an end to the days when he and Su Shan had fled in panic.

"Don't underestimate me."

Su Shan also took a handgun from the rack and said with a smile, "I'm not a burden or dead weight. I've learned some fighting skills from Sister Mindy too. Relax, you don't need to worry about me."

She also gave a black grenade in her hand a shake.

With molecular mimicry, Su Shan could put her entire body into a molecular state, pass through anything and render all attacks ineffective. She could also easily slip a grenade into someone's stomach.

That was a technique the little witch Mindy had carefully taught her.

Knock!!

Just then, a very light knock sounded on the warehouse's iron door.

"A warehouse manager on patrol?"

Mindy frowned.

This was a dock, and the various private warehouses had all been converted from shipping containers. Anyone could rent one anonymously for a fee.

The managers naturally knew that the things stored here were not entirely aboveboard, so they would not deliberately patrol and knock on doors at night.

"Number one Mutant, I know you're in there. You and your sister, as well as Hit-Girl, Mindy. In fact, the warehouse manager here is one of ours, which is how I found you."

"Don't worry..."

"I'm alone, and I have no intention of exposing your secret to anyone."

The man in a suit, who was gently knocking outside, wore a smile as he stated his purpose and expressed his goodwill.

Finally...
