Chapter 283: Ye Nan's Plan

A "General Stryker, we meet again" made Stryker look suspicious. It wasn't until the flames faded that he saw clearly who was inside.

"Ye Nan, why is it you?" General Stryker exclaimed. He had seen Ye Nan's superpower before; it was a terrifying superpower.

"Why can't it be me?" Ye Nan asked back, as if he couldn't understand General Stryker's exclamation.

"How did you get here? How did you know about this place?" Stryker asked, his body slowly retreating, leaning against the wall.

"Do you remember when you brought me to your base? At that time, I knew the topographic map of this base of yours. From the very beginning, I had my eyes on you." Ye Nan told everything without hesitation, as if he couldn't see General Stryker's small movements.

Hearing Ye Nan's words, a scene flashed through Stryker's mind—a scene of Ye Nan following him into the base. At that time, Ye Nan was wearing a silver watch in his hand.

"Could it be that watch?" General Stryker couldn't help but say his own guess, and the horror on his face couldn't be covered up no matter what.

"How is it possible? A small watch deciphered the central main control computer I spent a huge price to manufacture, bypassing my perfect firewall. This is impossible, absolutely impossible."

Almost instantly, General Stryker went crazy, "If a small watch could decipher the defense system I carefully built, what use am I? What use am I?"

Stryker widened his eyes, looking at the ceiling, as if his gaze had crossed the ceiling and looked at the sky. He was asking the sky, asking God, what he had done wrong.

"The ICQ financial group is hailed by the American media as the cutting-edge technology company of the American internet. This is no empty talk." Ye Nan smiled gently, looking proud.

All along, the ICQ financial group had been the peak representative of American internet technology. It led the development of world internet technology and was a well-deserved giant and leader. And this was also one of the things Ye Nan was most proud of.

Since getting technical support from Dr. Ashford, Ye Nan had been frantically wooing cutting-edge talents in world internet technology, constantly improving Smila's intelligence. It could be said that the current Smila, apart from having no difference in appearance from the previous Smila, was much more advanced than when she was first built.

"That's right, the ICQ financial group is the leader in American internet technology." General Stryker's doubts were cleared up in an instant, but the next moment, his doubts became even greater, "Why did you tell me?"

"Because I need you." Ye Nan smiled gently. His gaze was fixed on the gate. In the next moment, the gate opened with a bang, "I need you to open the gate for me."

Stryker's face changed immediately, and he ran into the gate quickly, and then closed the gate at the fastest speed.

But he was fast, and Ye Nan was faster. Like a meteor, Ye Nan rushed in.

"The gate itself is connected to the dam's energy. If it's opened improperly, it will lead to energy leakage from the dam, which is also a huge danger. Not only that, it will also destroy my plan. So I was waiting, waiting for the gate to identify your identity and open." The smile on Ye Nan's face became even brighter.

"My program had already invaded your entire base, but you were very careful. The gate here was not under the control of the central main control computer. This is also why I left you here." Ye Nan smiled and explained to General Stryker.

Now General Stryker was a drowning dog in front of him, unable to show even a bit of prestige.

"But now, you have lost your value. Next, I will let you see my methods." Ye Nan walked gently to Jason's ear and handed his watch to Jason's ear.

"Jason, the plan has changed. Find Magneto, Mystique, and Deathstrike, wipe them out, then find all the mutants, record their locations, and tell me."

A passage of words came out of the watch, and the person who said this was General Stryker—no, it shouldn't be General Stryker. General Stryker was in front of Ye Nan. The person who really said these words was Smila. It was Smila imitating General Stryker's words.

In the endless illusions, the blonde girl standing behind Professor X whispered to the professor, "Professor, the plan has changed. Find Magneto, Mystique, and Deathstrike, wipe them out, and then record the locations of all mutants. Remember, it's everyone."

"Okay." Hearing this, Professor X, like a puppet, immediately changed his search range. His mental power was still dispersed globally, but his main energy and spirit were concentrated on Magneto, Deathstrike, and Mystique.

Magneto, who was moving at high speed, felt his face change when he felt the huge mental power gathering, "Damn Stryker, he is targeting us."

If he were sweeping across all mutants globally, it would be impossible to gather such huge energy around him. Under this energy, even Magneto would change color.

"Mystique, we must find Professor X quickly." Magneto's body moved forward rapidly.

Although he could shield Professor X's mental power, Mystique couldn't. And as his most capable subordinate, he wasn't willing to give up Mystique at this time.

Ye Nan stood in front of Professor X, looking at Professor X who was controlled by Jason, and couldn't help but sigh, "Professor, all along, I have treated you as my enemy, racking my brains to put you to death. But I don't know why, I can't be happy seeing you like this."

"When you apologized to me back then, I was so happy. As a result, when I got here and saw you again, I couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness in my heart. I don't know why this is either."

"A teacher is one who imparts knowledge, teaches skills, and resolves doubts. As a professor, why are you unwilling to tell me the reason for this?"

Seeing Ye Nan talking hypocritically here, General Stryker couldn't help but say: "Don't put on an act here. You are just a villain."

"I never said I was a gentleman. I always thought I was a villain, a vengeful villain. What Professor X did to me on the spaceship back then is still fresh in my memory. After that, I also used power to suppress him."

"But I don't know when we reached a tacit understanding. It seems there is a relationship that is not a cooperative partner, but better than a cooperative partner."

"I don't understand why this happened, so I asked Professor X, wanting him to resolve my doubts."

Ye Nan said gently, pouring out all his doubts, "For Professor X, I don't know what kind of attitude I should use to face him."

"Admittedly, I hate him very much. He and I are enemies. But for what he has done, I still admire him very much. He is a true hero."

Once, Ye Nan treated Peter as an object to be used, but the result was becoming friends with Peter. Once, he intended to use Stark to seize Stark's data, but he still became friends with Stark.

Why was this? Ye Nan had also been confused. Later, he thought it through. This was because of what they did.

Whether it was Peter or Stark, what they did, whether you agreed or disagreed, you had to admit that they were heroes.

Perhaps these heroes were not perfect. They had all kinds of problems and shortcomings. But the fact that no one could change was that they were doing things, doing things to help people.

The reason Ye Nan became friends and partners with them, and was even infected by them, transforming from a selfish otaku into a person with social responsibility, was entirely because of their actions.

And now, a problem in front of Ye Nan was Professor X's behavior. From the movie, Professor X was a good person. Although Ye Nan had always thought that the public needed a good person, so Professor X disguised himself as a good person, Ye Nan also had to admit that Professor X had done many things that were helpful to ordinary humans and mutants.

He established Professor X, sheltered mutant children, kept them away from secular harm, and at the same time taught them to control their own power and establish values of living in harmony with ordinary people.

From the perspective of the whole environment, what he did was insignificant. There were more mutants in this world than he imagined, but he did it, and put it into action.

"A true hero? You were deceived by him." General Stryker roared, "Do you know what he did behind the scenes? He and that damn Douglas were doing dirty experiments in secret. He completely brought it on himself."

"Yes, I know." Ye Nan nodded affirmatively, "Everyone wears a mask. In front of people, they are a righteous leader. Behind the scenes, they are a dirty beast. But behind the scenes, haven't they also been wearing a mask?"

"But these have nothing to do with me. I am not a philosopher, so I don't need to pay attention to so many things. I also don't need to let my thoughts bloom with gorgeous flames. I just need to protect my own family, that's enough."

Ye Nan looked gently, looking at Professor X without blinking, waiting for the final result. However, he kept saying: "General Stryker, from the beginning, I really wanted to cooperate with you. But your heart of hatred was too great, and I, who showed power in front of you, was calculated by you from the beginning."

"That's right, from the beginning, I really wanted to cooperate with you. I originally thought you were an ordinary human and had a grudge against Professor X. With your funds and my own power, dealing with mutants would be as easy as pie. But I didn't expect you to be a mutant. This is thanks to the people Douglas sent to track me. Otherwise, how could I see your true face?" Stryker said bitterly.

"Found it."

An invisible wave was released from Professor X's mind, and through the huge energy gathered here by the dam, it formed a destructive force. ===== CHAPTER 284 =====
