Chapter 545

The laboratory was as quiet as a silent world; whether it was Otto or the other mutants, they all stared in dumbfounded silence, not daring to look at each other.

At this moment, Su Quan was like—when spring comes, I don't speak first, which insect dares to make a sound?

"What are your plans?" Su Quan asked Otto.

Otto looked around blankly and shook his head: "I, I don't know either..."

"Then follow me."

Although Otto was old and couldn't fight anymore, his research attainments in mutant genes were still very high.

Although Mr. Sinister and Dr. Reyes and others also had a certain understanding and research on mutant genes, their research was mainly focused on transplanting mutant abilities, far less practical and popular than the research on "suppressing or amplifying mutant abilities."

Otto himself researched the serum agent that suppresses mutant abilities, plus the "Kick" serum formula that can amplify mutant abilities; taking the essence and removing the dross might give himself a surprise.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

A series of slightly messy footsteps broke the pin-drop silence in the laboratory.

Another team of agents arrived at the laboratory.

"Hands up, squat down, hands on your heads!"

The voice arrived before the people did.

An agent shouted loudly, calling out the warning procedure.

Then...

He saw the corpses lying in disarray on the ground and Su Quan, who was taking his time, and was instantly dumbfounded, cold sweat pouring out.

"If shouting could solve problems, donkeys could rule the world." Su Quan picked his ear and said to the agent who seemed to be frozen: "Take care of yourself, don't give your last words."

The agent nodded subconsciously and made a gesture of zipping his mouth.

Young man, you are quite cheeky.

Su Quan laughed dumbly, his expression suddenly serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, listen to the command."

"Attention!"

With a swish, all the agents stood at attention instantly.

"About face..."

The agents turned around.

"Forward march!"

"Thump, thump, thump... thump, thump, thump..."

The uniform footsteps accompanied the agents' orderly formation, gradually moving away...

Everyone in the laboratory was dumbfounded. You are agents of Trask Industries, the invading enemy killed your boss and colleagues, and you actually listen to the enemy's command?

Well, you might be mind-controlled, but Su Quan's "whim" was too showy.

You've taken all the bamboo shoots.

"Success."

"The serum is a success."

A researcher in a white coat picked up a tube of orange-red serum from the experimental table, pushed through the crowd, walked out of the laboratory, and came to Su Quan.

Su Quan took the serum, looked at it for a few moments, and handed it to Otto, who was getting up tremblingly.

"It looks like there's no problem, but this kind of serum is only effective on mutants who haven't awakened. If there isn't a suitable candidate, the effect is hard to verify." Otto said truthfully.

"I'll find a way for that."

Su Quan took back the serum and began to arrange for him and the other mutants.

How to arrange it?

One sentence.

Void Island, let's go!

The space-time gate connecting the two worlds stood tall, and the mutants walked in one by one, feeling uneasy.

When Otto went in, Su Quan stuffed the Kick serum formula and his research requirements for him into his mind all at once, which made him directly crash and freeze.

By the time he reacted, the space-time gate had long since closed and disappeared.

Underground base.

In an idle empty room, Su Quan was focusing on hammering and hitting a pile of machinery, with electric welding sparks splashing around from time to time.

Clarice leaned against the door, peering inside, and asked Lorna beside her curiously in a low voice: "It's been several days, what... what exactly is he doing?"

Su Quan and Lorna had been back for several days.

As soon as he came back, Su Quan mysteriously started hammering in this room. Everyone asked curiously, but he played mysterious and refused to say.

Lorna was also watching Su Quan. Hearing Clarice's words, she guessed in a low voice: "I think it should be related to mutant genes. Perhaps some kind of device that can detect mutant genes?"

"You guessed it!"

An affirmative voice sounded suddenly. Su Quan, who was hammering in the room, appeared in front of the two with a face full of excitement, and then...

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

He gave Lorna and Clarice one kiss each.

Lorna and Clarice were both stunned. Good guy, this was a surprise attack!

Su Quan seemed not to realize there was any problem with his previous action. With excitement and joy on his face, he took one in each hand and pulled them to the workbench in the room.

On the cluttered workbench, an unremarkable metal block attracted Lorna and Clarice's attention first.

The reason was simple: it was too bright.

It was glowing.

The silver-white metal block, which looked like a whole, was emitting a bright yet soft silver light.

Lorna and Clarice couldn't understand it.

Where was its light source? Why could it emit a visible silver-white light?

Su Quan put his arms around their shoulders and explained proudly: "This is an epoch-making mutant gene detector. See the white light it emits? The white light proves that it detected the mutant genes in your bodies."

"White light proves there are mutant genes. If there aren't any, what color light will it emit?" Clarice asked curiously.

"You'll know in a moment."

Su Quan played a trick, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers.

"Snap!"

As the snapping sound fell, a panicked Jester was suddenly teleported over.

Today happened to be the day agreed upon with Jester to transform him into a mutant.

"It's black... it's black..."

"For humans without mutant genes, the light is black!"

Just as the bewildered Jester wanted to speak, Clarice suddenly pointed at the mutant gene detector in Su Quan's hand and shouted excitedly.

Su Quan waved to Jester, signaling him to come over.

As he approached, the black light emitted by the mutant gene detector became more intense and dazzling.

"Mutants are white light, humans are black light..."

Lorna pondered slightly, pretending not to know the little trick Su Quan played with the colors: "Will the color change before and after gene awakening?"

Su Quan shook his head with a smile: "Mutant genes are innate. Whether they awaken or not only affects physical changes and what kind of abilities are obtained, so even if they never awaken in their whole life, they are still mutants who possess mutant genes!"

"With this, we can know in advance whether those children who haven't reached the awakening age are mutants."

Lorna thought of one person, little Dominique. Her mother was a mutant who possessed the ability to transfer others' pain.
