Chapter 806
"I... am I still alive?" Callisto, lying on the ground, woke up slowly, opened her eyes, and looked around weakly and dazed.
"You won't live much longer either..." Su Quan sat on the sofa, gently shaking a glass of red wine.
Callisto woke up instantly, looking at him with complex eyes: "Where's Toad?"
"I let him go back to pass a message, telling Wan Ciwang not to have any designs on Anna anymore. Tell me, will Wan Ciwang listen?"
"Or to put it another way, will Wan Ciwang come to save you?"
Callisto smiled bitterly and shook her head: "If I still have value, he will definitely save me, but now... I only have one day left."
"Less than a day, you've been unconscious for a few hours."
Callisto: "..."
Is that the point?
The point is whether he will save me or not. I'm going to die anyway, and I have no value anymore.
"Heaven never closes all doors; heaven has the virtue of cherishing life, so you don't have to be so pessimistic. How about we make a bet? If Wan Ciwang comes to save you, I'll let you die; if he doesn't come to save you, I'll let you live!"
If Wan Ciwang comes, there might be a glimmer of hope; if he doesn't come, she can live.
And regardless of whether he comes or not, it's better than just waiting to die, right?
Anyone who doesn't agree to such a bet is a fool!
"I bet!"
"You don't understand Wan Ciwang."
Su Quan smiled: "No, it's you who don't understand Wan Ciwang!"
It's true that Wan Ciwang is cold-blooded and realistic, but at the same time, he is also a proud and arrogant person. He has seen many enemies and predicaments, big and small. He is a person who has seen it all and experienced great storms; how could he retreat just because of Toad's few words?
Not to mention that it concerns his most important plan, making it even more impossible to just give up like this.
Therefore, Wan Ciwang will definitely come!
Not only will Wan Ciwang come, but nine times out of ten—the X-Men will also come!
How Cyclops and Storm defeated Sabretooth to save Wolverine and Anna in the movie should also happen in reality; at most, the participants and details will change.
Don't ask why; if you ask, it's because Su Quan is immune to causality, and the world corrects itself!
Su Quan didn't restrict Callisto's freedom, nor did he treat her coldly. She was also very sensible, waiting honestly for fate to descend, without causing any trouble.
Time passed bit by bit. Outside the window, night fell, and the lights were dazzling. Callisto, who had been very quiet, suddenly changed her expression and was stunned in disbelief.
"I won."
Su Quan smiled triumphantly. Callisto's perception ability had already sensed that mutants had appeared nearby.
There were two mutants in total.
According to the level standard Callisto was used to, one was a Level 3, possessing toad physiology, agility, and a long tongue; the other was a Level 4, capable of controlling magnetic fields.
These two mutants were exactly Toad and Wan Ciwang!
"Final words, is there anything you want to say?" Su Quan asked considerately.
Callisto: You call this considerate?
Callisto, who couldn't believe Wan Ciwang would really come, took a deep breath and said seriously: "I don't want to die."
Su Quan smiled and nodded: "I know."
"..."
Callisto got up and knelt on the ground with a thud.
So loud—no, wait, it was so resonant!
Su Quan glanced at her knees and heard her say: "Let me live, let me work for you, and create more value for you!"
"My speed is very fast, and I can also perceive the abilities and levels of mutants, I..."
Su Quan interrupted: "Your speed is very fast?"
Callisto was choked, remained silent for a few seconds, and then changed her words: "Except for you... I am faster than anyone else!"
Su Quan curled his lips: "Ever heard of Quicksilver?"
Who is Quicksilver?
Callisto opened her mouth, suddenly having the urge to give up struggling.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the hotel room door was pushed open, and Toad walked in with Wan Ciwang, who was wearing a helmet and cloak.
Wan Ciwang, this little old man, held his chest high and walked with his head held high, his steps full of vigor and aura.
Seeing Callisto kneeling to Su Quan, Wan Ciwang snorted with dissatisfaction and raised his hand.
In an instant, the metal on Callisto's leather choker was controlled, lifting her up directly and starting to tighten rapidly.
"Uh... uh..." The feeling of suffocation made Callisto, whose feet were off the ground, struggle painfully.
Wan Ciwang is Wan Ciwang; his actions are cold and ruthless.
"Ding!"
"Combat detected, drop reward: Control Magnetic Fields (Wan Ciwang)"
Callisto's two abilities had already been farmed earlier.
"Although I haven't accepted his allegiance yet, but... you are also not taking me seriously enough, are you?"
Su Quan smiled, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers.
"Snap!"
The moment the snapping sound fell, Wan Ciwang frowned, his face showing surprise.
Callisto slumped to the ground, gasping for air, looking at Su Quan with gratitude.
Wan Ciwang, with a gloomy face, attacked Callisto again, but the metal that had seemed like a part of his body suddenly stopped obeying him.
That feeling was like seeing a beautiful woman on the street; the kidneys tell the eyes not to look, feeling powerless, but the eyes seem to have already been attracted by the other party, ignoring the kidneys' words.
"You controlled it with gravity? No, that's not right, it's not gravity! If it were gravity, what I felt should be pulling, not..."
"You can also control the magnetic field of metal?!"
Even though he had seen many great storms and seen all kinds of abilities, Wan Ciwang still couldn't help but be moved.
This was the first time he had encountered an ability identical to his own!
Su Quan smiled brilliantly: "Surprised? Amazed? I told you not to come, but you didn't listen. Now it's good; I also have your only ability, and I'm stronger than you. Isn't this awkward now?"
Wan Ciwang was surprised but not panicked. He glanced at the stunned Toad and smiled.
"You really surprised me. I have been thinking, if I get old, if I die, what will happen to the Brotherhood, what will happen to mutants."
"I am very happy to see you today. You can control gravity, control magnetic fields, and should also have the ability of teleportation."
"You can inherit my mantle and lead the Brotherhood of Mutants to continue fighting for mutants."
"Child, I can be your father. After I die, everything I have will belong to you!"
"You can become the new Wan Ciwang!"
Passionate and emotional, Wan Ciwang opened his arms as if to welcome Su Quan's embrace.
Su Quan also raised his hand, and an invisible shockwave blasted toward Wan Ciwang's head fiercely.
"Hum!"
Highly symbolic, the helmet that had accompanied Wan Ciwang for countless years was instantly shattered into pieces, with fragments flying everywhere.
Wan Ciwang's eyes widened, and the premonition of death frantically impacted his soul. Too late to think of anything else, with agility inconsistent with his age, he instinctively moved downward to dodge the shockwave's attack.
"Thud!"
A heavy impact sound rang out. Anna, Callisto, and Toad in the room were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
