Chapter 738: Self-Inflicted Consequences and the Enhanced Angel Salvadore

Erik Lehnsherr looked at the dense swarm of missiles and suddenly raised his hand.

In an instant, the missiles stopped dead in the air.

Immediately after, the missiles actually turned around slowly, aiming at the warships that had launched them.

"Erik, you yourself said that we are the better people. This is the time to prove it."

Charles Xavier, seeing his intention, tried to dissuade him, but Erik Lehnsherr was completely unmoved.

Charles Xavier grew a bit anxious.

"There are thousands of people on those ships—good, honest, innocent people. They are just following orders."

Erik Lehnsherr's expression changed, and he said coldly, "I have been abused by people who were 'just following orders.' From now on... never again!"

As he finished speaking, he waved his hand fiercely.

Missile after missile flew rapidly toward the warships.

"Erik, spare them."

"No!"

Seeing the missiles getting closer and closer to the warships, Charles Xavier, his persuasion ineffective, rushed over and tackled Erik Lehnsherr to the ground.

The two wrestled on the beach, and the missiles in the air, having lost control, exploded one after another as they collided.

For a moment, the sky looked like fireworks in full bloom.

"I don't want to hurt you, don't force me!"

Erik Lehnsherr knocked Charles Xavier to the ground with an elbow, flipped on top of him, and waved his hand to fling away the X-Men who were preparing to come and help.

Then, with one hand pressing him down, he continued to control the missiles with the other.

"Erik, stop!"

"Bang!"

Erik Lehnsherr gave his good friend a fierce punch to the face, rose indignantly, and continued to control the remaining missiles.

Even the Emperor of Heaven himself couldn't stop me today!

"Bang!"

The slap in the face came too quickly; a bullet hit Erik Lehnsherr's helmet and ricocheted away.

Immediately after, several more bullets were fired.

Erik Lehnsherr's hands danced left and right, deflecting the bullets, but one bullet struck Charles Xavier, who had just stood up, in the waist.

His kidney was ruined!

Erik Lehnsherr and Moira MacTaggert, who had fired the shot, stopped everything upon hearing his scream.

Moira MacTaggert ran over immediately to help him up, completely ignoring the missiles and everything else.

The Emperor of Heaven couldn't stop him, but an injured good friend could!

Removing the bullet from his waist, Erik Lehnsherr knelt on the ground looking at him, his face full of worry and annoyance.

"You... you did this!" Erik Lehnsherr glared viciously at Moira MacTaggert.

"Don't go too far!"

Su Quan walked over leisurely, put his arm around Moira MacTaggert, and said indifferently, "This is his fate!"

Honestly, he felt Charles Xavier was somewhat bringing it on himself; after all, wanting to be a saint comes with a price.

Charles Xavier protected the weak without regard for cause and effect, and he was somewhat hypocritical.

When Erik Lehnsherr wanted to kill the Black King, he only persuaded him, never stopped him, and could even be considered an accomplice.

But when it came to bombing those warships, he jumped out to stop it.

You were backstabbed, they wanted to wipe you all out, and you actually stopped Erik Lehnsherr from fighting back?

Is he sick or something?

Feelings? Cause and effect? Emotions? He didn't care about any of these. He watched from high above like God; whoever was weak, he helped.

The Black King was stronger than Erik Lehnsherr, so he helped Erik Lehnsherr.

Erik Lehnsherr was stronger than those humans, so he helped the humans!

Su Quan never hated or resisted kindness and justice.

Yes, he was selfish, and he wasn't a good person, but he also had kindness and justice—it just only appeared when he was in a good mood.

But he really couldn't stand this kind of kindness and justice that Charles Xavier claimed to be a savior with.

"Cough... you, you're right. I might really only be able to rely on a wheelchair from now on. My legs, my legs have no feeling."

Charles Xavier gasped, glanced at Su Quan, and then looked at Erik Lehnsherr: "It wasn't her who did it, it was you—you did it!"

Erik Lehnsherr looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Us turning against each other is what they wanted! Charles, I want you to stand on my side. We are brothers, you and I... we, all of us, protect each other."

Charles Xavier looked at him as well and said with a laugh, "My friend, I'm sorry, we can't."

Their eyes met, and both fell silent.

Erik Lehnsherr felt that everyone was a mutant and should stand together to help each other.

Charles Xavier, however, could not agree with his attitude and philosophy toward humans.

Those with different paths cannot make plans together.

Erik Lehnsherr waved to the X-Men, leaving Charles Xavier for them to attend to.

He rose and looked around at everyone.

Those people from the Hellfire Club couldn't be recruited, and the X-Men... due to philosophical issues, it was estimated no one would go with him...

Finally, he set his gaze on Mystique, Raven.

"Society doesn't accept us, we should unite ourselves. Humans attacked mutants, and now we are going to fight back."

"Who is coming with me?"

He asked everyone, but he only looked at Raven.

Erik Lehnsherr reached out his hand to Raven and said deliberately, "No need to hide anymore."

Mystique looked at him and walked slowly toward Charles Xavier, who was by his side.

Erik Lehnsherr lowered his hand in disappointment, glanced at the silent crowd, turned, and floated up, flying rapidly toward the vast, boundless sea.

"Remember to come find me when you turn back."

Su Quan smiled at Moira MacTaggert, took a few steps back, and without any warning, disappeared with the few people from the Hellfire Club.

Void Island.

The few people from the Hellfire Club looked at the mysterious palace on this uninhabited island, feeling extremely surprised.

"This is the temporary base camp. The mutants recruited in the future will all live here."

"The White Queen is recruiting mutants elsewhere and won't be back for a short time. Azazel, Riptide, I will leave the management of this place to you for now. Prepare whatever you need yourselves."

Azazel and Riptide nodded silently.

Su Quan laughed lightly and continued, "I am a very easy person to get along with, and my requirements for you are very simple."

"Obedience! Obedience! And more obedience!"

"I don't need you to be very strong, because no matter how strong you are, you aren't as strong as me! However, I can make you stronger!"

Su Quan looked at Angel Salvadore and said indifferently, "Kneel."

Angel Salvadore's expression turned ugly instantly, but with one's head under the eaves, one has to bow. In the end, she slowly knelt on one knee in front of Su Quan.

Su Quan ignored her emotions; she was just a tool used to demonstrate his methods.

Placing his hand on the top of Angel Salvadore's head, a ball of light enveloped her through his palm. ===== CHAPTER 740 =====
