Chapter 718

"Bang!"

Su Quan blocked it casually and nodded slightly: "Not bad. While the energy hasn't recovered yet, you can practice a few more times."

With that, he walked straight toward the activity room.

At this time, Banshee and the others also realized they had misunderstood Su Quan, and at the same time, they had a preliminary understanding of his strength.

Sure enough, just as Mystique said, he is indeed the strongest!

"Teleportation, telekinesis, suspected psychic ability, energy absorption, and wind... what kind of mutant can possess so many abilities at the same time?"

Mystique secretly looked at Su Quan, who was drinking coffee in the activity room, lost in thought. Perhaps he could have a way to solve her problem.

Alex Summers didn't know if Su Quan would help him absorb energy again, so he could only practice constantly, racing against time.

Others, because Su Quan was in the activity room, didn't dare to return to the activity room and could only disperse silently.

Su Quan studied the "Survival of the Fittest" ability for a while and was also ready to go back to rest.

Just then, the door of the activity room was pushed open, and Moira MacTaggert, in casual clothes, walked in, looking a bit tired.

"Not resting yet? Good, there's something I want to ask you." Moira MacTaggert sat down beside Su Quan.

Su Quan raised his eyebrows slightly and secretly raised the corners of his mouth: "Ask."

Moira MacTaggert asked hesitantly: "You, can you eliminate a mutant's ability?"

Su Quan looked at her thoughtfully and remained silent.

Such a gaze and silence put a lot of pressure on Moira MacTaggert, who hurriedly explained: "I don't mean anything else; I'm just... just a bit curious."

Do you think I believe that?

Su Quan responded noncommittally with a "Hmm" and said nonchalantly: "You should know how much trouble it would cause if this kind of thing were discovered, right?"

"At that time, whether it's mutants or humans, they will all have various thoughts. I'm just looking for a few mutants I find pleasing to help me do things; there's no need to wade into this muddy water."

Moira MacTaggert's eyes lit up: "That is to say, you can indeed eliminate a mutant's ability? Then..."

"Do you have a friend who is a mutant? Want to eliminate their ability?"

"Con, consider it so."

Su Quan smiled and reached out to put his arm around Moira MacTaggert's shoulder. Moira MacTaggert's body stiffened slightly, but she didn't dodge immediately, instead looking at him with confusion.

"I can help you eliminate the ability, but there are conditions."

"It's not me, it's my friend," Moira MacTaggert defended first, then asked: "What conditions?"

"First, you cannot tell anyone about this, not even the people closest to you."

Moira MacTaggert nodded: "I won't tell anyone, and I will also warn my friend."

Su Quan continued: "Secondly, I want you!"

"Wha, what?"

"Just what you heard!"

Su Quan said as a matter of course: "I took such a big risk to help you; I can't do it for nothing, right? Of course, you can also refuse. After all, you are doing it for a friend, not for yourself; there's no need to compromise yourself and sacrifice yourself."

Moira MacTaggert was silent.

Su Quan didn't urge her either.

Little one, I can't deal with you? You really thought that being able to transform could fool me!

Yes, this Moira MacTaggert is fake.

As for who she is?

Isn't this obvious?

Mystique.

The only one who can turn into someone else's appearance during this period is Mystique!

As for how Su Quan discovered it?

The reason is simple: at this time, Moira MacTaggert should be following Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr in searching for Sebastian Shaw's whereabouts, busy thwarting his conspiracy. How could she come here in the middle of the night?

Moreover, even if Mystique could make the irises, fingerprints, skin texture, voice, and even personality exactly the same as Moira MacTaggert's, a psychic scan would reveal her true form!

Logically speaking, Mystique could turn into any appearance and shouldn't have external appearance troubles, but she hadn't truly accepted her own appearance from the heart during this period.

Or rather, she hadn't truly accepted her identity as a mutant.

Moira MacTaggert—or rather, Mystique—who had been silent for a while, looked at Su Quan with firm eyes.

"You cannot let anyone know about this, and afterward, you cannot pester me again or mention this matter to me."

"Even if you ask me, I will completely forget about this matter, no... I will completely forget this memory!"

Is this for fear of being exposed later...

Su Quan smiled and said: "Need Charles's help? Fine, I promise you, I will never proactively mention this matter to you."

Moira MacTaggert breathed a sigh of relief and asked nervously: "You, when will you help my... friend eliminate the ability?"

……………

"Afterward, anytime is fine."

"Good, then you..."

"Do you have anything to do tonight?"

"..."

"No."

"Want to go out for a stroll?"

Su Quan stood up and teleported away with her in his arms.

Night.

Passed quietly.

The moon set and the sun rose. In a hotel room, the two ate breakfast in silence.

Mystique, wearing Moira MacTaggert's appearance, felt a bit anxious and lost. Her complex psychology was difficult to describe to outsiders, and even she herself hadn't sorted it out clearly.

"Your friend... when will she eliminate the ability?" Su Quan asked.

His mood was also complex now. On one hand, looking at this face of Moira MacTaggert and pretending not to know it was Mystique, and on the other hand, he knew for sure in his heart.

This feeling of being both true and false, like a dream, was truly difficult to describe.

"By the way, who is your friend, and what is her ability?" Su Quan asked again.

Mystique looked up and said hesitantly: "You know this person too; it's Raven."

Su Quan pretended to be surprised: "Raven? Isn't she Charles's person? Is your relationship with her already so good that you can sacrifice yourself?"

Mystique had already thought of an excuse and explained: "She helped me do one thing—what it was, I can't say—but I promised her I would find a way to help her eliminate her ability."

"You, do you know what she really looks like?"
