Chapter 279: Kneel Down and Apologize

Inside a certain base in New York.

Cyclops slowly pushed Professor X into the base. Under the red glasses were a pair of vigilant eyes.

Hiss!

The gate slowly opened, revealing the scene inside. He saw that opposite the main entrance, doors made of glass and plastic were tightly closed.

Cyclops pushed Professor X in, and a man wearing a light blue police uniform immediately stopped Cyclops.

"Sir, you cannot go in."

"Why can't I go in?" Cyclops pushed the man blocking the way aside, determined to go in.

"Cyclops, it's okay." Professor X shook his head, signaling Cyclops to let go.

"Very sensible." The man took over Cyclops's work and pushed Professor X to the scanning area. Another man operated the machine, constantly scanning Professor X. Only after the scan was completed did he nod and open the prison door.

The so-called prison was made entirely of glass and plastic, and Professor X's wheelchair was also a specially made wheelchair.

After passing through heavy defenses, Professor X finally saw Magneto. He smiled gently: "Erik, how have you been lately?"

"I've been doing very badly, you know that, Charles." Magneto tapped the glass table with his fingers, not even having the interest to look Professor X in the eye.

"There is an old saying in the East: 'If there's nothing to do, one doesn't visit the temple.' Tell me, what did you come to find me for?"

Boom!

Layer upon layer of doors slowly closed, locking Magneto and Professor X inside.

Professor X turned his head to look, then focused all his attention on Magneto. "How much do you know about the attack on the President?"

"Except for what's in the newspapers, I know nothing." Magneto turned around and chuckled, "Actually, you don't need to ask me at all. You should ask Stryker."

"Stryker? Does this matter have anything to do with him?" Professor X turned his wheelchair closer to Magneto.

"His son, Jason, should have been your student once." Magneto said.

"Yes, but I couldn't help him." Professor X said, his expression dimming. "That ability of his made me powerless."

"Is that so? You are very afraid of losing him, but..." Magneto suddenly laughed.

"What did you say?" Professor X looked at Magneto suspiciously. There was a vague, bad premonition in his heart.

"Sorry, old friend, I couldn't hold back." Magneto shook his head, "I told Stryker everything. The war drums have been beaten."

Sss! Sss!

A large amount of gas was discharged from the plastic holes on the side. As soon as this gas appeared, Professor X felt his body go numb.

"Stryker." Professor X hurriedly pushed his wheelchair toward the door, his hands constantly knocking on the plastic door.

"Looks like you're trapped, Professor X Charles." Ye Nan walked in from outside the door with a full face of smiles, followed by Stryker and his son.

Seeing Ye Nan appear, Cyclops immediately understood that this was a conspiracy. One of his hands pressed against his glasses, wanting to fire a laser beam.

But in the next moment, Ye Nan appeared in front of him and punched him in the stomach.

"Have a good rest, Cyclops."

After knocking Cyclops down, Ye Nan turned his head and said: "Open the door."

"Open the door." Stryker gave the order.

The man in uniform immediately operated the computer and opened the door.

"Mr. Ye Nan, Professor X is inside. He will soon kneel down and kowtow to you." General Stryker walked in first, holding a metal device in his right hand.

"This thing is called a neural inhibitor. Its function is to suppress Professor X's mind, making him unable to use his abilities."

General Stryker pushed Professor X out, "Magneto is inside. His ability to control magnetic fields is really a headache."...

Stryker pushed Professor X in front of Ye Nan and said: "Mr. Ye Nan, he will surrender to you soon."

"Oh, I'll wait and see." Ye Nan chuckled, and the program on his watch automatically started, emitting an inexplicable electromagnetic wave that invaded the base's computers.

From the very beginning, he never thought about cooperating with General Stryker. To him, Stryker, who hated mutants, was even more dangerous than Magneto.

Coupled with his knowledge of the plot, he knew some things, some things Stryker hadn't told him, so he understood Stryker's concealment from him very well.

Regarding this cooperation where everyone was using each other, he didn't take it seriously at all.

Now, through the intelligent program Smila had installed inside, he directly bypassed the other party's computer firewall, sneaked in secretly, and downloaded the data. By the time he went out, the data Stryker had left in this base would all be in his hands.

General Stryker took out a small tube and dripped a drop of liquid onto Professor X's neck.

This drop of liquid fell on Professor X's neck and immediately made a sizzling sound, as if water had been poured on a red-hot iron block, or as if sulfuric acid had been splashed on a person's face.

After a while, Professor X's hand trembled, and his head was then raised. When he saw Ye Nan looking at him with a smile, he was immediately stunned there.

"Ye Nan, is it you?"

"Why, doesn't the Professor want to see me?" Ye Nan looked at Professor X with a smile, feeling an indescribable pleasure in his heart.

Remembering when he first met Professor X on the nameless island, Professor X was so arrogant, driving him out of the spaceship. At that time, Ye Nan had been holding back a breath of anger in his stomach.

Although he had schemed against Professor X several times, at that time, he was just using power to suppress people, and apart from disgusting Professor X, there was no other effect.

But now, Professor X was so weak that as long as Ye Nan hooked his little finger, he could crush him to death.

"I'm just surprised why you would get together with General Stryker." Professor X's head turned back and forth. When he saw Cyclops, he stopped. "What did you do to Cyclops?"

"Nothing, just let him have a sleep." Ye Nan said lightly, the smile on his face becoming even brighter, "But I suggest you should think about your own situation. As of now, your situation is very bad."

"You won't kill me." Professor X said firmly.

"Why." Ye Nan became curious all of a sudden, "Why do you think I won't kill you? Don't you know I hate you? I hate you to death."

"Because I can feel it." Professor X pointed to his own head, "My mind here tells me that you don't have the heart to kill me."

"Right. You win. I indeed don't have the heart to kill you, but how should you handle the humiliation I'm about to give you?" Ye Nan smiled strangely, "General Stryker, it's up to you now."

"Of course." General Stryker smiled lightly, and he whispered in his son's ear, "Son, make him kneel down and apologize to Mr. Ye Nan."

Only then did Professor X notice this person who had been keeping his head down, and this person was exactly General Stryker's son, Jason.

"Jason? Oh. God, he is your son, how could you turn him into this?"

Now, Jason was thin as a rail and mentally confused. Behind him, metal skeletons were connected, and he looked in quite bad shape.

"He is not my son." Stryker's face changed greatly, "He killed my wife."

"You know, Professor X, how much he hates me. He hates me for abandoning him, so he took pleasure in torturing my thoughts. He made us full of illusions. My wife, in order to drive away those illusions, drilled into her own head with an electric drill." Stryker pointed to his own temple, "My son, he is a master of illusions, he is a master of illusions who killed his mother."...

"Sorry, I couldn't cure him, but you know, mutation is not a disease, it..." Before Professor X finished speaking, he was interrupted by Stryker, "Wrong, it is a disease, so I want to..."

Stryker suddenly remembered that there were outsiders present, so he immediately stopped what he was about to say.

"Sure enough." Seeing Stryker's performance, Ye Nan immediately sneered. He knew Stryker very well; he completely hated mutants.

Perhaps he had truly wanted to cooperate with Ye Nan, who opposed mutants, but when he saw that Ye Nan was also a mutant, he immediately changed his decision.

"But it doesn't matter. Your decision has no meaning to me. You are destined to be a pawn of mine."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, everything I had is ruined, so next, I should deal with you." Stryker laughed, "My son, he is a master of illusions, so you should fall into illusions."

Jason raised his head, his eyes aimed at Professor X, and endless power of illusion surrounded Professor X layer by layer.

"What do you want to do, Jason, don't listen to him." Professor X tried hard to mobilize his mental power, but every time he mobilized his power, he felt a suppressing force, firmly suppressing his mental power.

"No one who betrayed Mr. Douglas has a good ending."

"That's why I want to use you, Professor X." General Stryker laughed loudly, "Jason, make him fall into illusions."

Ye Nan glanced at Jason and then looked at Professor X. He saw Professor X shaking his head constantly, trying hard to resist Jason's power of illusion.

"Even a mental master like Professor X can't resist Jason's illusions. It's truly terrifying."

Ye Nan closed his eyes and released his mental power, feeling the power of illusion transmitted from Jason. As soon as he made contact, Ye Nan felt endless illusions attacking him.

One moment it was angels flying all over the sky, one moment it was a gloomy and dark hell, one moment it was the majestic Heavenly Court, one moment it was the hell of pigs, dogs, cows, and horses.

Endless illusions came, constantly torturing Ye Nan's spirit, leaving him no chance to think, and he fell into them under wave after wave of attacks.

"Jason, stop." General Stryker whispered in Jason's ear.

Hearing this, Jason lowered his head and stopped releasing the power of illusion.

"It really is terrifying." Ye Nan struggled out of the illusions, panting heavily. Having been in contact with the illusions for only a short while, many beads of sweat had already emerged on Ye Nan's forehead.

Just now, Ye Nan was like a tragic figure who had fallen into the sea, lost in endless illusions. Perhaps Jason couldn't kill him, but Jason could make him stop acting, just like Jean Grey did back then.

"Mr. Ye Nan, you have to be careful. Jason's illusions are very powerful." Although Stryker was reminding him, there was indescribable pride in his eyes.

Ye Nan knew very well why Stryker was proud, and he also knew very well why Stryker saved him. Ye Nan immediately said: "It was my mistake, but it won't happen again."

Hearing this, Stryker whispered in Jason's ear again: "Jason, make our Professor X apologize."

Hearing Stryker's words, Jason immediately raised his head, and endless power of illusion enveloped Professor X.

"Professor X!" Ye Nan looked at Professor X nervously, wanting to see if Professor X would be controlled by Jason's illusions and apologize to Ye Nan. His heart was full of nervousness and anticipation.

"Sorry." Professor X lowered his head and muttered, "Sorry, Mr. Ye Nan, please forgive me."

Hearing Professor X actually apologize to him, Ye Nan immediately felt indescribable happiness in his heart. That breath of anger from back then was completely exhaled, and he felt proud and elated.

"Professor X, oh Professor X, no matter how terrifying your mental power is, no matter how cunning you are, aren't you still going to apologize to me now? Haha..."

Ye Nan couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, feeling extremely happy in his heart.

"But this isn't over. One day, I want you to truly kneel down and apologize to me." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.) ===== CHAPTER 280 =====
