Chapter 729: Discovered, the real and fake Moira MacTaggert
Time flies like an arrow.
In the Xavier Manor, the mutants who had settled down accepted targeted special training, and their strength improved significantly.
Meanwhile.
US-Soviet relations became increasingly tense under Shaw's instigation. Warships from both sides had already gathered in the waters of Cuba, and a conflict could break out at any time, triggering a world-class war.
On a certain uninhabited island in the desolate sea, it was primitive and natural, with beautiful scenery. All kinds of ancient trees and strange trees of various shapes came into view, making one dazzled.
This is an ocean of trees, a paradise for birds. Here, branches connect to branches, leaves stack on leaves; there are no roads and no human smoke.
Uh...
There really wasn't any before Su Quan came here. After he came, an ancient and classical palace gradually rose from the forest, adding a bit of mystery to this ancient and primitive small island.
He named this island Void Island.
Void, which is both an identity origin and can be interpreted as nothingness, has the meaning of being omnipresent and all-encompassing.
Simply put, this is an island, or rather a force, that both exists and does not exist in this world!
Actually, Su Quan originally wanted to call it Krakoa. After all, Krakoa is a fictional country created by mutants in the comics, and Su Quan's purpose in developing this place was also to temporarily house mutants.
But then he thought, forget it. After all, he wouldn't really manage and develop this island, so it's better to call it Void Island. In this way, after returning, it can also give mutants a greater sense of belonging.
In a room in the palace, on a valuable Simmons mattress, Mystique looked at Su Quan, who hadn't woken up yet, with complex eyes.
If she approached Su Quan at the beginning to eliminate her abilities and had ulterior motives, then now, she couldn't explain her own heart.
This is not her first time coming here.
Since the Department X base of the Intelligence Agency was destroyed, the real Moira MacTaggert asked him if he would go to the new base with Charles and the others, and then they went their separate ways.
He found this place, started building it, and frequently contacted "Moira MacTaggert" through her!
The first few times she could still say it was to eliminate her abilities, but the last few times, she understood that she came for Su Quan, to be with Su Quan.
She knew that the first time of her body and mind already belonged to this man named Su Quan!
Because she had wanted to confess her identity to Su Quan several times.
I am not Moira MacTaggert!
I am Raven!
The person with you is me, not her!
"Da da da—da da da—" footsteps came from outside, getting closer.
There are actually other people here?
Raven was shocked in her heart. Without thinking, she directly transformed into Moira MacTaggert, quickly put on her clothes, stood up, and aimed her gun at the door.
The footsteps disappeared, and the person had arrived at the door.
The door was pushed open gently.
"Don't move!"
The moment the door opened, Raven whispered.
Their eyes met.
The person outside the door and the person inside the door were both stunned.
"You... you..." Moira MacTaggert looked at "herself" holding the gun with a blank face.
What's the situation?
How could I be here?
No, who turned into my appearance?
"Raven?" Moira MacTaggert asked tentatively.
Raven looked flustered and subconsciously looked at Su Quan behind her.
Looking at Su Quan, who hadn't woken up yet, Moira MacTaggert's expression was strange, as if she understood why Raven had turned into her appearance.
"You... you guys went too far." Moira MacTaggert said with a dark face. Besides being angry, there was inexplicably a trace of pride.
Maybe it's because Su Quan has always given people a feeling of being very powerful and very distant. As a result, at that time, he would let Raven turn into her. Doesn't this just prove her charm?
Although such an approach is a bit excessive and a bit disgusting, Moira MacTaggert wasn't really particularly angry; she was just a bit surprised and a bit dissatisfied!
After all, who can refuse the appreciation of the opposite sex for their charm!
"Shh!"
"Let's go out and talk. Please, don't wake him up."
Raven pleaded in a low voice, and Moira MacTaggert thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
The two looked at Su Quan, left the room on tiptoe, and closed the door.
The moment the door closed, Su Quan, who had been sleeping soundly, raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
The two walked out of the palace. Moira MacTaggert was silent, while Raven was calculating in her heart how to explain such an embarrassing situation.
Outside the palace.
The sun was shining, and the breeze was blowing.
Moira MacTaggert looked at Raven: "I need an explanation..."
Raven smiled awkwardly and sheepishly told the story from beginning to end.
Moira MacTaggert's expression gradually became strange. Originally, she only thought Su Quan appreciated her charm, so they played this "little trick."
As a result, she didn't expect there to be ulterior motives!
Su Quan could actually eliminate mutant abilities, and Raven, in order to eliminate her abilities, actually borrowed her appearance to trade with Su Quan and even hid it seamlessly.
Su Quan didn't know the inside story at all and actually thought the person with him was her.
And she herself...
If it weren't for the fact that she came to Su Quan for help to stop Shaw's next move, she would probably have been kept in the dark.
Moira MacTaggert didn't know what to say anymore; Raven's operation was really too "sao" (flamboyant)!
"What now?!" Moira MacTaggert asked angrily.
Raven had already thought about it when she chose to confess. She said hesitantly: "Can you, can you pretend you don't know anything?"
"It won't be too long! After solving Shaw, I will let him help me eliminate my abilities, and the transaction will end."
"I will leave, and I promise, I will make it clear to him before I leave, and I promise it won't affect you."
Moira MacTaggert hesitated for a moment and asked: "Can he really eliminate mutant abilities?"
"I don't know." Raven shook her head: "But I believe in him, and he wouldn't lie to me just to take advantage!"
Moira MacTaggert said angrily: "The one being taken advantage of is me, okay?"
"But the person actually with him is me!" Raven argued.
Moira MacTaggert looked at her and asked thoughtfully: "You, you wouldn't have fallen in love with him, would you?"
Raven said with a complex expression: "You don't know how much I want to use my own appearance, but I'm afraid! I'm afraid he won't forgive me after knowing the truth. I, I'm afraid he won't like my appearance!"
Moira MacTaggert said: "If he likes you, he must like the real you, the real you, not just the appearance!"
Raven was silent and didn't speak.
In the current situation, who can tell whether Su Quan likes the inner Raven or the outer Moira MacTaggert?
