Chapter 434: Departure and Ambush! (Second update, please subscribe!)

~7 min read 1,220 words

For a young girl who has just begun to look forward to the future, "becoming" a mutant without warning, and being unable to make contact with anyone ever again, is an extremely cruel thing.

Her life will undergo a massive change; her life—has been completely altered!

Anger?

Despair?

Breakdown?

Anna's mind is a blank, no, it should be a void of darkness!

In a daze, a warm hand wrapped around her shoulder, and immediately after, she felt herself leaning against a sturdy and reliable shoulder.

Subconsciously looking up, she saw Su Quan's smiling face.

Yes, he is smiling.

I am already in such a miserable state, how can he smile? How can he gloat, he—

Huh???

He, he, he—

Anna suddenly widened her eyes, staring fixedly at Su Quan's hand resting on her shoulder.

"Have you reacted yet?" Su Quan said with a smile: "Although you cannot control your own ability, I can isolate your ability, and I possess the same ability as you, even stronger than yours!"

"So we can make contact normally."

"Remember, I told you, you would still come to find me, because apart from me, no one can be your man!"

Anna stood up and said somewhat excitedly: "You knew I was a mutant long ago? And you knew what kind of ability I would have?"

Su Quan shrugged: "The first time we met, I told you I was attracted here, attracted by you, but you didn't believe it!"

"I, I believe it now."

"So whether you have a boyfriend or I have a girlfriend doesn't matter at all; what matters is that you can only be with me."

Anna's face flushed slightly, wanting to say something, but not knowing what to say; things had happened too suddenly.

But there was one thing she could be certain of, and that was that Su Quan was already different in her heart.

"What should I do now?"

Anna, lost and helpless about the future, now had only Su Quan to rely on.

In the movie, Anna chose to run away from home, then met Wolverine, and became a target for Professor X and Magneto to fight over.

Magneto's goal in fighting for Anna was simple: he had built a machine that could transform humans into mutants, and he wanted to use Anna's ability to start this machine to turn all of humanity into mutants.

Professor X, who stood on the side of humanity, naturally would not allow such a thing to happen, and therefore sent the X-Men to rescue Anna and stop Magneto's conspiracy.

Interestingly, if memory serves, not long after Anna met Wolverine, they were attacked by Magneto's subordinate, namely 'Sabretooth'.

Immediately after, the X-Men's Storm and Cyclops appeared, repelled Sabretooth, saved Wolverine and Anna, and brought them back to the X-Mansion.

At first, Professor X and the X-Men thought Magneto's target was Wolverine, but Magneto's true target was Anna.

In other words, when Anna ran away from home, Magneto already knew who she was and what ability she possessed.

The question arises, how did Magneto know?

Anna had not used her ability during the process of running away from home; the only time she used her ability was when she first awakened—nearly killing her little boyfriend!

Therefore, the greatest possibility is that he learned about the little boyfriend, and then followed the clues to find out about Anna and her ability!

Now that the plot has been changed by himself, and the little boyfriend has escaped a disaster, will Magneto still capture Anna?

If not, who is he planning to let replace Anna to start the machine and implement the plan?

Su Quan suppressed his curiosity and said to Anna: "Say goodbye to your family, and then I will erase their memories of you. I will give this house to them and leave them a sum of money, as a repayment for their kindness in raising you."

Anna asked reluctantly: "Must it be like this?"

Su Quan nodded: "Even if you tell them the truth, even if they can accept it, can you guarantee you will never have contact with them? Can you guarantee you won't cause other trouble? Also... if people find out you are a mutant, not only you, but your family will also be in danger."

"I, I understand."

Anna nodded dejectedly; although her heart was a mess, she was still very decisive at critical moments.

She knew that her leaving was the best protection for them!

Night, lonely.

A figure carrying a bag came out of the house on tiptoe, looked back for a moment, and walked toward the man standing by the sports car on the side of the road.

"Ready?"

"Mm."

Su Quan released his psychic ability; when Anna's parents wake up tomorrow morning, they will forget Anna's existence, and then they will go next door to take over the house he left behind and five million dollars in cash.

Under the night sky, the sound roared, disturbing people's dreams.

The sports car drove out of the community, and only then did Anna turn back her gaze, which had been lingering, and asked Su Quan: "Where are we going?"

"Find a place to stay for a few days first, and see if anyone comes looking for us."

Su Quan can be immune to causality; even if he took Anna away and changed the plot, from a macro perspective, Magneto is highly likely to still send people to capture Anna.

The unreasonable parts of it will be corrected by the world itself; it can be considered another kind of butterfly effect.

Su Quan was very curious about who Magneto, having lost two great generals, the elder Raven and Sabretooth, would send to capture Anna this time.

……

……

Several days later.

In a hotel at the other end of the city, Anna tapped the Void Battle Bead on her wrist, and a green tight-fitting battle suit instantly covered her entire body, making her figure appear even more curvaceous.

"Knock, knock, knock—"

The sound of knocking on the door rang out; Anna stopped admiring herself and hurried over to open the door.

Standing outside the door was a strange man wearing a trench coat, ugly in appearance, giving one a sloppy and unkempt feeling.

Anna was stunned for a moment and asked: "Who are you looking for?"

The ugly man grinned: "Looking for you!"

As the words fell, the ugly man opened his big mouth, and a long tongue flexibly wrapped around Anna's neck. Anna, caught off guard, immediately struggled in a panic, while looking toward Su Quan's direction, desperately shouting his name.

"Su Quan, save... save me!"

"Whoosh—"

A gust of wind blew up from the doorway, and a figure rushed in instantly at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

Immediately after, Su Quan, who had been sitting on the sofa, was lifted up, and a sharp dagger appeared at his throat.

"Su..." Anna was stunned; she hadn't even seen when the person holding Su Quan hostage had appeared.

"Don't move around, or—you will die!" A woman's voice rang in Su Quan's ear.

Without needing to see her expression, just from the voice, one could feel her smugness and that high-and-mighty arrogance.

Su Quan didn't move, but there was no panic or fear on his face either: "You're poking me."
