Chapter 982

For example, take the Sentinel Services.

Why didn't Su Quan destroy it directly?

Because his purpose in coming to this world wasn't to destroy the Sentinel Services, nor was it to save all mutants, but to recruit personnel for the White Queen.

Without the oppression of the Sentinel Services, why would mutants abandon their homes and follow you to another world? Why would they work for you and risk their lives for you?

Without darkness, how can there be light?

If your legs are nimble and you can move freely, who the hell would use a crutch?

Chloe and Jace Turner are different.

Su Quan could resurrect Jace Turner's daughter because he could provide information about mutants within the Sentinel Services.

His personal talent is also outstanding. At the same time, whether he becomes a mutant himself or finds mutants to help, they will eventually end up working for him.

What about Chloe?

Her mind is already broken. Even if she were cured, it would just mean one more speedster.

Su Quan is the Speed Force itself; the last thing he lacks is speedsters.

His silence let everyone know the answer.

Lorna snorted fiercely: "We can't save her, but we can destroy the Hound Program so that more mutants won't have to suffer such misery."

"Lorna is right, we must stop the Hound Program!" John agreed.

Others nodded one after another.

Even if it weren't for Chloe, even without this spy incident, their goal was the Hound Program.

It's just that they had been busy sending mutants in need of help to Void Island during this time, so they hadn't taken action.

Clarice found a place for Esme to rest, then went with Sonya and John to settle the mutants they brought back.

Lorna watched them leave and turned to Su Quan: "Is there something wrong with her?"

The question was a bit abrupt, but Su Quan and Sage, who hadn't left, both knew who Lorna was referring to.

Su Quan laughed lightly: "It's not just that there's something wrong; there's definitely something wrong!"

Lorna rolled her eyes and said: "It's not like I don't know you have psychic abilities too. You didn't give any sign, so I thought you didn't want to intervene, but then I realized you had been watching Esme the whole time."

Is Esme pretty?

Yes.

Is Su Quan a playboy?

Yes.

But the way Su Quan looked at Esme was wrong. There was no aggressive desire to "get to know her," but rather a detached playfulness.

That look was as if to say: Come on, start your performance!

Sage nodded in agreement. She also suspected there was something wrong with Esme because she noticed Su Quan had been watching her.

Su Quan isn't the kind of man who "meets one person and grows old with them." His relationship with Sonya is known to everyone, and at the same time, everyone knows he likes Lorna, and Clarice likes him.

But whether it's Lorna or Clarice, he hasn't impatiently taken any initiative; he has always been interacting normally, like rain moistening things silently.

Although Esme is pretty, she hasn't reached the point of far surpassing Lorna, Sonya, and Clarice.

Su Quan kept staring at her; it definitely wasn't because she was pretty!

Su Quan explained with a slight upward curve of his lips: "Esme's psychic ability is stronger than she shows."

Sage said: "She's deliberately hiding her skills—is it a conspiracy or a habit?"

Su Quan shook his head: "It's neither a habit nor a conspiracy. She's hiding her skills because she's afraid we'll be wary of her because of her ability."

Lorna frowned and asked: "Do you know what she wants to do?"

Su Quan shrugged with a smile: "Believe me, I understand her just as well as I understand you. The reason she infiltrated the organization is for you!"

Lorna was full of surprise: "You're saying she's targeting me?"

Su Quan asked with a smile: "Do you know about the Hellfire Club?"

"I've heard people on Void Island mention that the White Queen and Azazel were once members of the Hellfire Club. You've also used the name Hellfire Club in other worlds."

As she spoke, Lorna suddenly realized: "Wait, our world has a Hellfire Club too? Does Esme have a relationship with the Hellfire Club?"

Su Quan nodded and said: "Esme is a member of the Hellfire Club. She also has two twin sisters, named Sophie and Phoebe, who are currently locked up in the Sentinel Services' detention center."

Lorna suddenly realized: "She infiltrated to use our strength to save her sisters?"

"Yes, and no!"

"Stop talking in riddles. Tell me, what's going on." Lorna was getting a bit anxious.

Su Quan laughed: "Sophie and Phoebe were caught on purpose. That way, Esme has a reason to make us take action against the Sentinel Services and the Hound Program, and thereby... win you over!"
