Chapter 913
Su Quan decided to play a big game.
"He is at the headquarters; I can teleport you all there."
The Ultimate Sentinel acted as a guide without the slightest hesitation—well, with a little bit of personal vendetta, more or less.
It makes sense, too; their heads were blown off, so what's wrong with acting as a guide?!
Su Quan smiled and said, "Before that, there is one more thing. Do you know the Red Queen?"
The Red Queen?
The three Ultimate Sentinels each shook their heads.
"Then what about Madelyne Pryor? Red hair, green eyes, cloned from Jean Grey's genes just like the X-Men, and also possessing telepathy," Su Quan asked again.
The Ultimate Sentinel and Gideon Nickson shook their heads again, but Laura Kinney hesitated: "Red hair, green eyes... I think I've seen her, but I'm not sure if she's the Madelyne Pryor you're talking about."
"Where?"
"In the basement of the company headquarters. I was escorting a mission target once and happened to see her undergoing ability testing."
"Good!"
Su Quan raised the corners of his mouth and looked at the Ultimate Sentinel.
The Ultimate Sentinel nodded, activated her teleportation ability, and transported everyone to the basement of the Essex Corporation headquarters.
"Whoosh—"
The sound of breaking air echoed in the spacious and bright basement hall. As soon as they appeared, a piercing alarm broke the original tranquility.
Staff members in white coats evacuated in an orderly fashion, as if they had experienced this countless times; they were unfazed and showed not a hint of panic.
At the same time, fully armed security guards with live ammunition ran out quickly and surrounded them directly.
"That's a quick reaction."
Su Quan was somewhat amazed.
They were discovered the moment they appeared, and the alarm was triggered immediately.
The staff showed no panic or hesitation and evacuated in an orderly manner at the first opportunity.
Likewise, the security guards also knew their location immediately; in less than thirty seconds, they were completely surrounded.
It must be said that even S. H. I. E. L. D., which prides itself on professionalism, probably doesn't have this kind of reaction speed and response efficiency!
"Whoosh—"
"Whoosh—"
Several sounds of breaking air followed, and seven or eight mutants of all kinds teleported in.
One of them raised a hand and directly released a light blue energy field to cover Su Quan and the others.
Energy fields, security guards, plus seven or eight mutants with unknown abilities...
Good grief, is this wave of operations called an ambush from all sides, or is it called having no wings to escape?
Should I just surrender directly?
"We have trouble..." The Ultimate Sentinel transformed her arms into weapons and reminded them in a low voice: "We must deal with them as soon as possible. The longer it drags on, the more people will come."
Su Quan asked with a smile: "Are you afraid?"
"Afraid!"
"They should be afraid of me!"
Trouble is trouble, and courage is courage. She knew the company's strength very well, but trapped in a siege, she didn't feel weak at all.
At worst, she would die; she had just died anyway, so this life now was a free bonus.
Moreover, if she could be resurrected once, she could be resurrected a second time. As long as she showed her value and as long as Su Quan was fine, death really wasn't anything to be afraid of!
"Protect the Master!" The Ultimate Sentinel shouted in a low voice to the pale-faced Gideon Nickson.
She heard Lady Deathstrike call Su Quan "Master," so she followed suit.
Gideon Nickson opened her mouth, feeling somewhat aggrieved. You died and were resurrected, and your condition is restored, but my injuries haven't healed yet. If this drags on a bit longer, I'll be the first to kick the bucket.
Aggrieved as she was, depressed as she was, she knew very well that this was not the time to say such things. Likewise, she also knew that no matter what happened, the highest priority was to protect the Master!
This wasn't to say how loyal they were; after all, they were enemies before. How could they be fiercely loyal and willing to die for Su Quan just after defecting?
They understood the situation and knew that as long as Su Quan was fine, they were equivalent to having resurrection coins and could be fully restored at any time! Chapter 510: Red Queen: Madelyne Pryor (Second update, please subscribe!)
They were fearless, and Su Quan naturally wouldn't let them die. He waved his hands, and drops of Ambrosia factor were flicked into the mouths of those around him.
"This is the Ambrosia factor. With it, you can be resurrected infinitely!"
After saying that, Su Quan waved his hand again at the energy defensive field trapping them.
Only the sound of cracking was heard, and the energy defensive field actually froze into ice and shattered with a bang!
Clatter—
In an instant, everyone was stunned!
The enemy didn't expect to trap them solely by relying on the energy defensive field, and the Ultimate Sentinel and the others also had their own means to break through the energy defensive field.
But Su Quan's move was truly too unexpected; he actually froze the energy defensive field in an instant, making it like fragile glass that scattered all over the floor!
"I'll leave it to you."
Su Quan released his telepathic power and walked straight toward a corridor leading to the depths.
There were two security guards and a mutant blocking the way ahead, but Su Quan ignored them, as if the path ahead was empty and smooth!
Too arrogant. Can't you see the living people?
"Rat-tat-tat—rat-tat-tat—"
The security guards opened fire, and bullets came flying over as if they were free.
Su Quan didn't stop his pace. Just as the dense hail of bullets was about to hit him, space flickered slightly, and the bullets suddenly disappeared.
The next second, the bullets appeared behind the security guards and the mutant, and without losing momentum, they directly pierced their heads!
"Thud!"
Caught unprepared, they fell to their knees and died instantly. At this moment, Su Quan happened to walk in front of them; at first glance, it looked like he was receiving their kowtows.
"Whoosh—"
Su Quan took another step, and when his foot landed, he had already appeared at the corner of the corridor.
Immediately after, he disappeared.
"Stop them, don't let them disturb the Master." Seeing someone preparing to chase, the Ultimate Sentinel immediately switched to combat mode. Various weapons appeared on her body, and she opened fire wildly!
The two generations of Silk Spectre reacted quickly and rushed to the corridor at the first opportunity, blocking the path from left and right.
Lady Deathstrike and Laura Kinney charged into the crowd, the cold light of their Adamantium claws scattering everywhere. Suddenly, screams rose and fell, and hot blood spilled out with the sounds.
"Squelch—"
A dagger pierced Gideon Nickson's body without warning. Gideon Nickson's expression stiffened, and she looked at the man who had teleported in front of her, giving a bitter smile.
"Sure enough, I died first."
"Pfft—" The man pulled out the dagger expressionlessly, watched Gideon Nickson gasp her last and fall to the ground, then turned to look for the next target.
Just at this moment, the wound on Gideon Nickson's body on the ground healed rapidly. In just a few seconds, she opened her eyes again, her gaze revealing unspeakable shock.
She had been resurrected at full health!
What is this Ambrosia factor? It was clearly just a tiny drop, yet it was so miraculous!
"Time Stop!"
In an instant, the flow of time stopped. As far as Gideon Nickson's eyes could see, the entire world had been pressed with a pause button.
The ferocity on Laura Kinney's face, the blood droplets flying in the air, the spurting wounds—everything was frozen, looking strangely eerie.
Gideon Nickson rose leisurely, took the dagger from the man's hand, and stabbed him—once, twice, three times.
After a few stabs, the flow of time returned to normal.
The man who had originally wanted to find the next target suddenly felt his hand lighten, and then he saw Gideon Nickson, whom he had already killed, standing right in front of him in an instant.
"Oh no!"
The man realized, but it was too late...
Blood splattered, and intense pain struck. He only had time to shout "Oh no" before his vision went black, and then he knew nothing more.
"Thud!"
The man fell to the ground, and Gideon Nickson, holding his dagger, began doing what he had been about to do: looking for the next target.
Her time stop was not without limits; the time paused and the number of times she could pause were all related to her physical strength, physical state, mental state, and mastery of the ability.
Therefore, she locked onto those targets with special abilities that were difficult to deal with easily and quickly!
From a certain perspective, her positioning was the same as the man she killed—both were assassins, only the man used teleportation to assassinate, while she used time stop.
Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.
