Chapter 580: Dazzler

Happy times always pass especially quickly.

One teaching and the other learning diligently, with full devotion, it was already afternoon when Su Quan and young Jean Grey, immersed in the ocean of knowledge, left.

At the same time, young Jean Grey had also become a newly promoted Phoenix Apostle.

Now, there are three Phoenix Apostles.

The Great White Queen.

Jean Grey.

And, young Jean Grey.

Actually, people like the Stepford Cuckoos, Magik, the Little White Queen, the Black Queen, Mirage, Storm, Sonia, and even Magneto were qualified to become Phoenix Apostles.

This qualification refers to the ability to control the Phoenix Force, but in terms of merit and contribution, they were still a bit short.

The current three Phoenix Apostles—the Great White Queen goes without saying; with her status and ability, she is absolutely qualified, even impeccable.

Jean Grey and young Jean Grey are slightly inferior; theoretically, they are not qualified, but they originally had the Phoenix Force, and now it was just a replacement, so others had nothing to say.

The two walked on the street, and young Jean Grey held Su Quan's arm and asked him: "When are we going back to the school?"

Su Quan said with a light laugh: "No rush to go back. Accompany me to a concert first."

"A concert?"

Young Jean Grey asked curiously and teasingly: "Whose concert is it that can actually attract the Lord of the Void?"

"Ali."

Su Quan said a name.

Young Jean Grey was a bit confused; she hadn't heard of any singer or musician named that.

Su Quan smiled and pointed to a bar across the street. On the bar's glass was a homemade poster, and on the poster was a young, beautiful blonde girl with her arms crossed, head tilted, singing.

Below her was her name.

Ali!

Young Jean Grey asked dumbly: "You aren't wanting to listen to her concert just because you saw the poster, are you?"

Su Quan smiled without answering, and young Jean Grey already believed her guess.

Do you want to watch a concert?

You want to look at a beauty!

Su Quan and young Jean Grey had a big meal at a nearby restaurant and wandered around a nearby shopping mall, where he bought her a few sets of clothes.

It wasn't until night fell and the streetlights came on that the two arrived at the bar, waiting for the concert to start.

The bar was not large. The staff on the stage in the corner were adjusting the equipment, and the guests were drinking and chatting in twos and threes, seemingly not caring much about the upcoming concert.

Su Quan and young Jean Grey sat in the first row directly in front of the stage. Young Jean Grey asked around and found out that this Ali was just a fledgling newcomer singer with no fame at all.

Even the newcomer singer and the so-called concert had a lot of "water" in them.

To tell the truth, this was just a resident performance by a bar singer!

Young Jean Grey was even more convinced of her guess; Su Quan was just here for Ali's beauty.

Hmph, superficial!

Well, young Jean Grey was more or less a bit jealous.

After all, not long ago, Su Quan was focused on teaching her, and yet in less than half a day, he had already changed his mind.

Isn't he changing his preferences too fast?

At this moment, a blonde girl wearing a long white dress and exaggerated eye makeup stood in front of the microphone on the stage.

"She's not that good-looking either," young Jean Grey sized her up a few times, then looked down and glanced at herself: "And her figure isn't as good as mine either."

To tell the truth, there is no so-called standard for things like figures; it's purely a matter of personal taste—to each their own.

Some people like young Jean Grey's "fierce" figure, and naturally, some people like Ali's slender and delicate figure.

Su Quan is different; as long as they are beautiful, he likes them all!

Back to the point.

After Ali got on stage, she didn't introduce herself like other singers, nor did she warm up the crowd; she just started singing directly.

The melodious music sounded, and the moment Ali opened her mouth, Su Quan felt like he was drinking ice water in the dog days of summer—it was so refreshing and exhilarating.

Shocked.

Her voice was actually this good?

Young Jean Grey looked in surprise at Ali, who was immersed in the music, and observed the surrounding guests. Nine out of ten guests who were originally drinking and chatting were attracted by her singing and focused their attention on the stage.

"Bang!"

The already dim lights in the bar suddenly went out completely.

Before the guests could react, a bright light shone directly on Ali, who was still singing on the stage.

At this moment, Ali seemed to become the only light!

"So it was a stage effect."

The guests realized and continued to drink and watch the performance with peace of mind.

This design was indeed a stage effect, but it was just the prelude; the real effect was about to appear!

Ali raised her hand slightly, and light spots like fireflies appeared at her fingertips, dancing and flashing in the air with her fingers and arms.

Under her command, the light spots gradually gathered together, turning into colorful halos, and changed into various forms with the high and low notes of her singing.

At this moment, Ali was like a goddess surrounded by brilliance, beautiful and shocking.

"Is this a lighting effect?" Young Jean Grey looked at the light spots commanded by Ali and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

It was too realistic, too perfect, and the timing was too precise.

If the changes in the light spots were lighting effects set to appear in such a perfect stage effect.

But, could she really time it this precisely?

And...

Where are the lights projecting the light spots?

Although there were all kinds of light sources on the roof above the stage, not one of them could be matched to these light spots.

If it wasn't a lighting effect, where did these light spots come from?

Young Jean Grey suddenly narrowed her eyes and released her telepathic ability toward Ali to perceive.

The moment the telepathic ability was released, young Jean Grey let out a muffled grunt and turned to look at Su Quan, who was drinking beer.

Immediately, her voice sounded in Su Quan's mind.

"Why stop me? I suspect she might be a mutant."

"No need to suspect, she is!" Su Quan responded with a smile and explained: "Do you really think I came to her concert because I thought she was pretty? Her full name is Alison Blaire, codename: Dazzler."

"She really is a mutant, so those light spots are her ability?" young Jean Grey asked in surprise.

"Her ability is to convert sound waves into various types of light energy. She can provide illumination, project realistic holograms, emit blinding pulses, emit psychedelic flashes, create laser-like cutting beams, and emit solid photons and oscillation force beams."

"Don't look at her as if she's not doing well as a singer; in fact, she is a highly skilled athlete and roller skater, and she also has strong hand-to-hand combat skills."
