Chapter 472
Storm guessed right; this was indeed not her world, but the 【New Mutants】 world.
This was Su Quan's second time stepping into this world. The first time was to take Magik Illyana Rasputin to the Void to participate in the first Void Brawl Arena.
Because she didn't win the championship, she had stayed in the Void ever since.
Come to think of it, the Void Brawl Arena had only been held once before losing its original purpose and meaning. It could be held in a different way in the future; after all, it was the first grand event in the history of the Void.
"Because the timelines are different, the X-Mansion and the Brotherhood of Mutants in this world have already become history. The mutants you are familiar with are basically gone."
"The situation for mutants in this world is not bad. Although some still avoid them like the plague and some harbor malice, overall it's much better than the other world I know. At the very least, they aren't being hunted down on a large scale."
"The Essex Corporation I mentioned just now is the group that harbors malice toward mutants. This company belongs to a man named Nathaniel Essex, who is also a mutant himself."
Nathaniel Essex, codenamed Mr. Sinister, is a villain who spans almost all mutant worlds and timelines; many events are related to him!
Storm frowned and hesitated to speak: "He is also a mutant, so why does he..."
"It's very normal. Some people want to live a stable life, while others are ambitious and want to conquer the world! For example, Magneto; as long as someone blocks his path or affects his core interests, even if that person is a mutant, he will be just as ruthless."
"In the 19th century of this world, Darwin published the theory of evolution, and Nathaniel Essex also published a more radical theory of evolution. He believed that a large number of mutants would appear on Earth in the near future, but he was unanimously criticized by the academic community."
"He has always been committed to pursuing knowledge and conducting scientific research, until he met the much older mutant Apocalypse and gained an extremely long lifespan!"
"Afterward, he betrayed Apocalypse and began to tirelessly research genetics and cloning technology, becoming the multi-talented—Mr. Sinister!"
"At the same time, the Essex Corporation he founded has developed into a powerful capital group over the years. They search everywhere for newly awakened mutants, using the sanitarium as a front. On the surface, they help mutants get familiar with their abilities, but in reality, they secretly acquire their genes and train them into assassins!"
Storm's anger surged, and she trembled with rage: "How could he do this! This bastard... I will never let him go. Where is he?"
"He has deep research in genetics and cloning. Not to mention whether you can beat him, even if you could... how can you guarantee that the one you kill is the original, the real him?"
Mr. Sinister is different from villains like Magneto and Apocalypse. This guy is a master of survival; not only does he rarely take action personally, but he has also hidden countless clones all over the world.
For a scientist like him, there is no difference between the original and the clones. Same genes, same abilities, same memories. If the original dies, the clone becomes the original.
Wanting to completely eliminate him can be said to be extremely difficult and not easy at all!
Storm said gloomily: "Then what should we do? Are we just going to let him persecute the mutants of this world?"
Storm didn't ask Su Quan if he could kill Mr. Sinister. She knew that if Su Quan wanted to, he definitely could. If he didn't want to, it wouldn't be easy for her to ask him to do so; after all, he had his own stance and goals.
Su Quan is not the type of person who believes that with great power comes great responsibility.
"Magik was previously locked up in the nearby sanitarium. There are several other mutants locked up inside, namely: Wolfsbane, Cannonball, Sunspot, and Mirage."
"Besides that, the director and doctor of the sanitarium, Cecilia Reyes, is also a mutant. She can create invisible energy force fields, and it is precisely because of this that those mutants cannot escape."
Storm asked: "Is your target those young mutants in the sanitarium? No, that's not right, your target is only the female mutants, right?"
I have to say, Storm knows Su Quan very well; his target really is the female mutants in the sanitarium!
Not counting Magik with her black stockings and long legs, the female mutants inside include Wolfsbane, Mirage, and Dr. Cecilia Reyes.
Wolfsbane can transform into several different werewolf forms. Regardless of the form, she gains enhanced hearing, vision, and smell, animal-like strength, agility, and reflexes, sharp claws and fangs, and animal instincts.
Dr. Cecilia Reyes's ability is relatively simple: releasing invisible energy force fields. Besides defending herself and others, she can also crush targets by controlling the size of the force field, or exhaust the air within the force field, causing the target to faint or die from suffocation!
Mirage... she is quite special!
If you ask who is the most beautiful and charming female mutant in the sanitarium, it is undoubtedly Magik in her tattered black stockings!
But if you ask who has the strongest ability and the greatest potential, it is definitely Mirage!
Mirage can create mental illusions and make them tangible. The boss they teamed up to fight in the movie, that Demon Bear, was manifested by her!
If she could control her ability and further enhance it through strengthening, it would be quite terrifying.
Besides that, she can communicate with animals and generate starlight energy, constructing it into various shapes, most commonly arrows. After hitting a target, it causes the target to have intense mental reactions and lose the ability to act.
If Su Quan obtained this ability, with his psychic power, he could manifest whatever he wanted; he would be a human Reality Stone!
Besides their people and abilities, Su Quan had another goal, and this goal was related to Mr. Sinister!
Mr. Sinister plays with genetics and cloning, and these technologies are all quite good, especially the latter...
He cloned many people, and the most famous result is one of the three queens Su Quan has been longing to collect—the Red Queen, Madelyne Pryor!
She is a clone of Jean Grey.
Mr. Sinister arranged for her to marry Cyclops and give birth to a boy, whose codename is Cable.
Yes, that's Deadpool's other good buddy!
Su Quan really wanted to know if Mr. Sinister in this world had cloned the Red Queen. If so, then whether the Red Queen, who obtained the Goblin Force, one of the three great powers, was her.
Three queens and three powers; Su Quan has already obtained two, missing one, it's not perfect!
