Chapter 571
As the air wall shrank rapidly, even Beast, with his beast-like strength, could only kneel on the ground in humiliation, unable to move!
The Void Guard's moves were too fast and too decisive; there was no intention of exchanging pleasantries, and by the time Professor Charles reacted, Cyclops and Beast had already been forced to lie flat.
"Wait, don't move yet, this is all a mis..."
Before the Professor could finish his sentence, he saw Distortion in the guard team rotate her hands and shout hoarsely.
Immediately after...
"Bang!"
The sound stopped abruptly, and blood splattered.
Professor Charles in the wheelchair looked as if he had been turned inside out; the sight was extremely cruel, making one dare not look directly at it.
"D... dead?"
"Professor Charles... is dead?"
Cyclops and Beast were stunned, and the Void Guard side was stunned too.
Fighting was fighting, and trouble was trouble, but Professor Charles dying so suddenly was truly unexpected and hard to believe.
It wasn't that Professor Charles couldn't die, it was just... he died too suddenly.
Who could have thought Professor Charles would die just like that?!
Cyclops and Beast roared in grief with gnashing teeth, while the Void Guard side looked with strange expressions at Distortion, who had done a great deed without realizing it.
"Why are you looking at me? I know he's Professor Charles, but his people dared to attack the Master, so they are enemies!"
"Since they are enemies, I don't care who they are, they must die!"
Distortion argued with conviction, sounding as if it were a matter of course.
In fact, she wasn't wrong; this was the duty and principle of the Void Guard: as long as they are enemies, no matter who they are, they must die!
It's just...
This was Professor Charles, after all; although the members of the guard team came from different worlds, they all had some connection to Professor Charles to some extent.
And we didn't come here with the Master to start a war or cause trouble, right?
Furthermore, Professor Charles hadn't even attacked and was preparing to explain, but before he could even finish the word 'misunderstanding', he was killed by a reversal.
It was... just too sudden!
Rebecca, oh Rebecca, if we're talking about ruthlessness, you're still the most ruthless.
Fine, you're a ruthless person!
"Professor!!!"
The young Jean Grey, controlled by the Phoenix Force, actually regained consciousness because of the Professor's death, but the aura on her didn't weaken; instead, it became even stronger.
"Power!"
"Lend me power!"
"I want to avenge the Professor!!!"
The young Jean Grey roared hysterically at the Phoenix Force in her heart; she wanted power, power to defeat the enemy!
"Okay."
The Phoenix Force responded, and immediately handed over all its power to the young Jean Grey without reservation.
The angry yet rational young Jean Grey had a faint tendency to change from a Dark Phoenix to a White Phoenix.
"Is this a burst of power? Pity... it's useless!" Su Quan shook his head slightly, still methodically devouring her Phoenix Force.
In an evenly matched situation, a sudden burst might indeed influence the outcome, but in a high-end crushing game, even a burst couldn't bridge the gap in strength!
Strong is strong!
Weak is weak!
The Phoenix aura behind the young Jean Grey was monstrous, and even the dullest person could feel her agitation and rage, but the battle situation didn't reverse because of it; instead, her burst made the hungry Fairy Force even more excited and joyful, devouring more and faster.
In just a few dozen seconds, the restless flames of the Phoenix Force dimmed, and the young Jean Grey was left with a look of disbelief.
"H-how could this happen?"
"Impossible, this is impossible..."
"No!!!"
The young Jean Grey roared in unwillingness, and the Phoenix Force followed with a soul-stirring cry.
And then, there was no then.
The Phoenix Force inside the young Jean Grey was like a candle that had burned out, the monstrous flames turning into sparks little by little.
Can a single spark start a prairie fire?
As an enemy of Su Quan, a single spark can only be extinguished!
"Bang!"
After the Phoenix Force was completely devoured, the young Jean Grey sat weakly on the ground, a look of disbelief still lingering on her face.
The force field disappeared, the sky cleared, and Su Quan walked out of the lifeless scorched earth, glancing at the miserably dead Professor Charles.
Did the Professor deserve to die?
He didn't deserve to die!
In the end, this was actually a misunderstanding caused by Cyclops's recklessness.
Professor Charles was a smart man, and they had dealt with each other before and had some friendship; it was impossible for him to be his enemy.
Was Distortion wrong?
She was doing things for him loyally and obediently, eliminating enemies who attacked him; she certainly wasn't wrong!
Compared to X-23 and Lauren, one injured Cyclops and the other trapped Beast; her style of wanting to kill someone right away did indeed lack some measure.
But Su Quan didn't care, and he wouldn't blame a member of the guard team who was loyal to him and worked wholeheartedly for him just for the Professor!
And... if the members of the guard team have to weigh their actions before attacking, is there any need for this guard team to exist?
Of course, Su Quan didn't want the members of the guard team to become cold-blooded and ruthless killers, nor did he want them to kill someone in every situation.
But he wouldn't deny Distortion's actions, and he wouldn't punish or scold her for it; do you really think people's hearts won't turn cold!
Su Quan smiled and patted Distortion's head gently, then turned and came to Beast.
Distortion laughed; Su Quan didn't let her kill people casually before—of course, he didn't let her now either—but she was a member of the Void Guard, and protecting the Master and eliminating the Master's enemies was her duty and obligation.
So she didn't care who the other party was, whether they should be killed, or whether it would cause trouble after killing them.
She only stuck to one point: if they dare to attack the Master, they are enemies, and since they are enemies, no matter who they are, they must die!
Su Quan waved his hand, and Lauren behind him instantly retracted the air wall.
Beast, having regained his freedom, hurriedly ran to the Professor's corpse, looking at the miserably dead Professor, kneeling and staring.
"Long time no see, is this how you intend to welcome me?" Su Quan said calmly.
Beast looked up at Su Quan, his eyes full of anger: "You killed the Professor, and you want me to welcome you?"
"Who is he?"
"Tell me who she is!"
"I want to kill him, I must..."
Before Cyclops, pinned to the ground, could finish his harsh words, X-23 stabbed him with another claw.
"Idiot who can't see the situation!" X-23 cursed coldly.
Su Quan shrugged at Beast: "The Professor is dead, you aren't dead yet, Cyclops isn't dead yet, and the students in the school aren't dead yet."
"Are you sure you aren't prepared to welcome me?"
Beast narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly: "Are you threatening me?"
"Nonsense!"
"If I'm not threatening you, am I telling you a joke?"
Su Quan rolled his eyes at him and said irritably: "We've known each other for a while, there's no need to be at daggers drawn; don't just stand there like a fool, get up quickly."
Hearing Su Quan's words, Beast sneered and said: "If knowing each other for a while leads to this outcome, I'd rather not know you!"
"Bang!"
Su Quan slapped him on the head: "Stop with the sarcasm; your students dared to attack me, so my people naturally dared to attack you. This cripple died, he can only blame himself for being less skilled."
"My people can make him die, and naturally can make him live. If you keep yapping, I'll take my people and leave; you can dig a hole and bury him yourself."
"..."
Beast blinked blankly: "Y... you're saying the Professor can still come back to life?"
What is Distortion's ability?
