Chapter 497

"Gideon, you..." Laura Kinney looked slightly stunned, then turned to Su Quan: "You killed her?"

She was referring to the Ultimate Sentinel.

The Ultimate Sentinel had died too suddenly; in this situation, the first person she thought of was Su Quan.

Su Quan had the ability, and he had the motive.

"If I wanted to kill her, she would have been dead long ago." Su Quan shook his head in denial.

"A cyborg, also known as an electronic human, mechanized human, modified human, or biochemical human, uses machines made of inorganic matter as part of an organic body, utilizing artificial technology to increase or enhance the biological organism's capabilities."

"I am very interested in her kind of existence!"

Cyborg is a general term for humans with prosthetic bodies. Representative characters include: Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell, Alex Murphy from RoboCop, Genos from One-Punch Man, Alita from Alita: Battle Angel, and so on.

The mutant Cable and Donald Pierce from Logan also belong to this category. The latter is also an employee of the Essex Corporation and should be the same technology as the Ultimate Sentinel.

By the way, there is also Cyborg from the neighboring DC Universe.

Laura Kinney chose to believe Su Quan. If he didn't kill the Ultimate Sentinel, then it must be... the Corporation!

The Corporation must have implanted a program in her brain that could be remotely controlled or triggered by some sort of activation, something even she herself probably didn't know about.

What a pity...

As Laura Kinney thought this, she suddenly heard Su Quan also say "what a pity," then he raised his hand and dropped a cluster of golden-red energy light onto the Ultimate Sentinel's body.

This is the Phoenix Force!

The Phoenix Force is the embodiment of life, the storage container and master of life and emotional energy for future generations of the entire infinite multiverse.

Su Quan's Phoenix Force naturally also has this ability; the only difference is the amount of future life energy stored and controlled.

To resurrect one person, one person in the future will no longer be born.

Sacrificing an unborn stranger or enemy to resurrect someone around you or someone you are interested in—this is a very worthwhile trade!

Taking a step back, it's just life energy, right? He has plenty of this stuff. How much life energy does it take to resurrect one person? It's a drop in the bucket; he can replenish it just by reaching out his hand.

As the Phoenix Force surged and life energy was consumed, amidst the dazzling light, the Ultimate Sentinel's head, which had already been blown away, actually recovered rapidly and reappeared.

The enveloping light gradually dissipated, and the Ultimate Sentinel's eyes slowly opened.

"I... I exploded? No, why am I still alive?" the Ultimate Sentinel murmured blankly, her consciousness gradually clearing as she realized what had happened.

"You did indeed explode, but I resurrected you," Su Quan said with a smile.

The Ultimate Sentinel looked at Laura Kinney and Gideon beside Su Quan, remained silent for a long moment, then stood up and said: "From now on, I listen to you!"

"Sensible."

Su Quan nodded with a smile. In this way, three of the Essex Corporation's strongest mutants—Laura Kinney, Gideon, and the Ultimate Sentinel—were all his people now.

"From the very beginning, my goal was to slay Mr. Sinister and destroy the Essex Corporation. Since he has already made his move, it is only polite to reciprocate. Now it's my turn!"

Su Quan decided to play a big game.

"He is at the headquarters; I can teleport you all there."

The Ultimate Sentinel became a guide without hesitation—well, there was more or less some personal grudge involved.

It makes sense; her head had been blown off, so what was wrong with being a guide?!

Su Quan said with a smile: "Before that, there is one more thing. Do you know the Red Queen?"

The Red Queen?

The three of them, including the Ultimate Sentinel, shook their heads.

"Then what about Madelyne Pryor? Red hair, green eyes, cloned from Jean Grey's genes just like the X-Men, and also possessing telepathy," Su Quan asked again.

The Ultimate Sentinel and Gideon shook their heads again, but Laura Kinney hesitated: "Red hair, green eyes... I think I've seen her, but I'm not sure if she's the Madelyne Pryor you're talking about."

"Where?"

"In the basement of the Corporation's headquarters. I was escorting a target once and happened to see her undergoing ability testing."

"Good!"

Su Quan curled the corners of his mouth and looked at the Ultimate Sentinel.

The Ultimate Sentinel nodded and activated her teleportation ability, transporting everyone to the basement of the Essex Corporation headquarters.

"Whoosh—"

The sound of breaking air echoed in the spacious and bright basement hall. As soon as they appeared, a piercing alarm broke the original tranquility.

Staff members in white coats evacuated in an orderly fashion, as if they had experienced this countless times; they were unfazed and showed no panic at all.

At the same time, fully armed security guards with live ammunition quickly ran out and surrounded them directly.

"Very fast reaction."

Su Quan was somewhat amazed.

They were discovered the moment they appeared, and the alarm sounded immediately.

The staff showed no panic or hesitation and evacuated in an orderly manner at the first opportunity.

Likewise, the security guards knew their location immediately. In less than thirty seconds, they had been completely surrounded.

It must be said that even S. . . . . ., which prides itself on being professional, probably doesn't have this kind of reaction speed and response efficiency!

"Whoosh—"

"Whoosh—"

Several sounds of breaking air followed, and seven or eight mutants of all kinds teleported in.

One of them raised his hand and directly released a light blue energy force field to cover Su Quan and the others.

Energy force fields, security guards, plus seven or eight mutants with unknown abilities...

Good heavens, is this wave of operations called an ambush from all sides, or is it called having no wings to escape?

Should I just surrender?

"We're in trouble..." The Ultimate Sentinel transformed her arms into weapons and reminded them in a low voice: "We must solve them as soon as possible. The longer it drags on, the more people will come."

Su Quan asked with a smile: "Aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid!"

"They should be afraid of me!"

Trouble is trouble, and courage is courage. She knew the Corporation's strength very well, but trapped as she was, she didn't feel intimidated at all.

At worst, she would die. Anyway, she had just died, and this life was a freebie.

Moreover, if she could be resurrected once, she could be resurrected a second time. As long as she showed her value and Su Quan was fine, death really wasn't anything to be afraid of!

"Protect the Master!" The Ultimate Sentinel shouted in a low voice to the pale-faced Gideon.

She had heard Lady Deathstrike call Su Quan "Master," so she followed suit.

Gideon opened her mouth, feeling a bit aggrieved. You died and were resurrected, and your state is restored, but my injuries haven't healed yet! If this drags on, I'll be the first to kick the bucket.

Aggrieved as she was, depressed as she was, she knew very well that now was not the time to say these things. Likewise, she also knew that no matter what happened, the top priority was to protect the Master!

This wasn't to say how loyal they were; after all, they were enemies before. How could they be loyal to Su Quan and risk their lives for him just after defecting?

They understood the situation and knew that as long as Su Quan was fine, they were equivalent to having resurrection coins and could be fully healed and resurrected at any time! Chapter 510 Red Queen: Madelyne Pryor (Second update, please subscribe!)

They were fearless, and Su Quan naturally wouldn't let them die. He waved his hands, and drops of Ambrosia were flicked into the mouths of those around him.

"This is Ambrosia. With it, you can be resurrected infinitely!"

After saying that, Su Quan waved his hand again at the energy defensive field that trapped them.

Only a cracking sound was heard, and the energy defensive field actually froze into ice and shattered with a bang!

Clatter—

In an instant, everyone was stunned!

The enemies didn't expect to trap them solely with the energy defensive field, and the Ultimate Sentinel and the others also had their own ways to break through it.

But Su Quan's move was truly unexpected; he had frozen the energy defensive field in an instant, making it look like fragile glass scattered all over the floor!

"I'll leave it to you."

Su Quan released his psychic power and walked straight toward a corridor leading to the depths.

There were two security guards and a mutant blocking the way ahead, but Su Quan ignored them as if there was no one there, a smooth path ahead!

Too arrogant. Can't you see the living people?

"Rat-tat-tat—rat-tat-tat—"

The security guards opened fire, and bullets came flying over as if they were free.

Su Quan didn't stop his pace. Just as the dense bullets were about to hit him, the space flickered slightly, and the bullets suddenly disappeared.

The next second, the bullets appeared behind the security guards and the mutant, and without losing momentum, they directly pierced through their heads!

"Thump!"

Unprepared, they knelt to the ground and died instantly. At this moment, Su Quan happened to walk in front of them. At first glance, it looked like he was receiving their kowtows.

"Whoosh—"

Su Quan took another step. When his foot landed, he had already appeared at the corner of the corridor.

Immediately after, he disappeared.

"Stop them, don't let them disturb the Master." Seeing someone preparing to chase, the Ultimate Sentinel immediately switched to combat mode. Various weapons appeared on her body, and she fired wildly!

The two generations of Silk Spectre reacted quickly and rushed to the corridor, blocking the road from left and right.

Lady Deathstrike and Laura Kinney charged into the crowd, the cold light of their adamantium claws scattering. Screams rose and fell, and hot blood spilled out with the sounds.

"Stab—"

A dagger pierced into Gideon's body without warning. Gideon's expression stiffened. Looking at the man who had teleported in front of her, she gave a bitter smile.

"Sure enough, I died first."

"Puff—" The man pulled out the dagger expressionlessly, watched Gideon gasp her last and fall to the ground, then turned to look for the next target.

Just at this moment, the wound on Gideon, who was on the ground, healed rapidly. In just a few seconds, she opened her eyes again, her eyes revealing indescribable shock.

She had been fully resurrected!

What is this Ambrosia? It was clearly just a tiny drop, yet it was so magical!

"Time Stop!"

In an instant, the flow of time stopped. As far as Gideon's eyes could see, the entire world had been pressed with a pause button.

The ferocity on Laura Kinney's face, the blood droplets flying in the air, the spurting wounds—everything was still, looking strangely eerie.

Gideon stood up unhurriedly, took the dagger from the man's hand, and stabbed him—one stab, another, and another.

After a few stabs, the flow of time returned to normal.

The man who had wanted to find the next target suddenly felt his hand lighten, and then he saw Gideon, whom he had just killed, standing in front of him in an instant.

"Not good!"

The man reacted, but it was too late...

Blood splattered, and intense pain struck. He only had time to shout "not good" before his eyes went black, and then he knew nothing.

"Thump!"

The man fell to the ground. Gideon held his dagger and started doing what he had planned to do: looking for the next target.

Her time stop was not without limits. The time paused and the number of times she could pause were related to her physical strength, physical state, mental state, and mastery of her ability.

Therefore, she locked onto those targets with special abilities that were difficult to solve easily and quickly!

From a certain angle, her positioning was the same as the man she killed—both were assassins, except the man used teleportation to assassinate, while she used time stop.

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.
