Chapter 827
"Although Wan Ciwang forcibly transformed his human genes into mutant genes, giving him mutant abilities, his genes also completely collapsed. Even without what just happened, he wouldn't have lived long."
Su Quan wrapped his arm around Storm's waist, and the light of healing magic immediately shone on her body.
"We must stop Wan Ciwang and prevent such a tragedy from happening again!" Storm said firmly and in a low voice.
Su Quan couldn't help but laugh: "You're not lightly injured; how can you defeat Wan Ciwang in your current state?"
"Being injured is not a reason to give up."
"Just like you attacking Dark Phoenix just now?" Su Quan curled his lips: "That wasn't righteousness, nor was it determination; that was showing off!"
"And... don't you believe I can win?"
"Who, who knows if you can win? Besides, even if I knew you could win, I wouldn't pin all my hopes on you and let you fight alone!"
Su Quan nodded with a smile: "So you can speak properly. Since you can speak, say a few more words."
"..."
Storm rolled her eyes and pulled away Su Quan's hand: "Don't take advantage of me. My injuries won't kill me; go see how the Professor is."
"I'm fine." The Professor had already struggled to pull his wheelchair upright and sat on it self-reliantly.
Expecting Su Quan to help?
Forget it.
Su Quan made it clear that he only cared about you and Jean Grey. If it weren't for you, he might not have stopped Dark Phoenix at all.
Come to think of it, Su Quan and Dark Phoenix can be ignored for now. Anyway, he couldn't manage them even if he wanted to, so he should manage what he could—Wan Ciwang!
Fish find fish, shrimp find shrimp.
As good friends who love and kill each other, Wan Ciwang is his—Wan Ciwang's business is his business, and he is duty-bound to stop Wan Ciwang!
Although he didn't know what kind of mutant Wan Ciwang had found to replace Anna, the Professor knew that Wan Ciwang definitely wouldn't give up.
The time and place for the summit had already been determined. Next, they just needed to wait for the rabbit to come to the tree, defeat Wan Ciwang, and stop his plan.
Uh... it sounds simple, but it's hard to do!
There were too few people who could be sent out to execute the mission; at most, there were only Jean Grey and Storm, and now they were injured.
For the current plan, they could only force the ducks onto the shelf and select people from the students.
The Professor, burdened with worries, instructed Storm to take good care of Jean Grey, fix the infirmary later, and then go out to comfort those frightened students, and incidentally, replenish the X-Men with fresh blood.
"This bald cripple is quite sensible."
Just because he left so decisively without staying to be a third wheel, Su Quan decided that the next time he encountered danger, he would lend a hand and save him once!
"Can you show some respect for the Professor? He is my... and Jean's teacher. Without him, there wouldn't be us today." Storm said with annoyance.
Su Quan curled his lips: "If you put it that way, you have to respect me too."
"Why?"
"Without me, all mutants would be dead."
Storm looked at him suspiciously. Is what this guy said true or false?
"You don't believe me?" Su Quan hummed with feigned dissatisfaction: "A scientist named Bolivar Trask captured the Professor's old friend decades ago, studied her abilities, and prepared to develop a weapon specifically to deal with mutants—the Sentinel robots."
"In the future, the Sentinel robots will eliminate the vast majority of mutants and humans carrying mutant genes, leaving only the bald cripple, Wan Ciwang, you, and a handful of others still holding on."
"In the end, you went all-in to reverse the future, and in the process, you were killed by a Sentinel robot."
Storm opened her mouth: "Then, did we succeed?"
"You succeeded."
Storm heard this and snorted: "Since we succeeded, what does that have to do with you?"
Su Quan grinned: "It has a lot to do with it, because the timeline you reversed has been messed up by me. If it had developed according to the original trajectory, you wouldn't have succeeded at all."
Storm's face was dark: "So you didn't help us or save the mutants, but scammed us."
Su Quan shrugged: "Bolivar Trask is already dead, the Sentinel robots can't appear again, and you don't need to reverse the future anymore. Doesn't this count as helping you and saving the mutants?"
Does this count?
You first destroyed our hope of self-rescue, then prevented the disaster from happening in advance, and then claimed credit?
Why do I feel like something is wrong?
Wait—
Reverse the future? Messed up another timeline?
Storm was surprised: "You, you come from another timeline?"
Su Quan rolled his eyes: "Can't it be that I've been to another timeline?"
"So you've been to another timeline?"
Su Quan nodded: "I do come from another timeline."
"..."
Storm rolled her eyes, thunder and lightning flashing around her: "Is it fun to play with me?"
"I don't know if it's fun to play with you, but you... should be fun!" Su Quan deliberately looked her up and down.
Storm was furious: "Su... Quan...!!!"
"Don't look at me like that. I just arrived late and didn't find you in advance, but there's still time in the other timeline. Believe it or not, if I find you later and raise you from a young age, I can also make you call me father?"
"Hmm?"
"Slip of the tongue, I mean teacher!" ===== CHAPTER 829 =====
