Not injured? Unexpected?
Scott and the others looked at each other in surprise.
"What do you mean, 'unexpected'?" Scott asked, puzzled.
Raven smiled slightly and said something astonishing, "That kid is terrifyingly strong. Everyone sent to capture him died at his hands!"
"Among them were two powerful mutants: one with super-speed healing and energy blasts, the other with pulse interference…"
After detailing the abilities of these two individuals, Raven smiled, "But these two powerful mutants also died at the hands of that boy."
Hearing Mystique's explanation, Jean and the others were shocked.
Such powerful mutants, all dead?
"How did they die?" Storm's blue eyes were full of confusion.
The next second, Mystique Raven gave an answer that left them stunned.
"They died under the light, in the light released by that boy. They all died!"
What?
All died in the light?
Scott and the others were shocked.
"What light?"
"What kind of light can kill such powerful mutants?" Scott asked in confusion.
"That, I don't know." Raven smiled.
Scott turned to Jean, "Jean, is she telling the truth?"
"She's not lying," Jean said, using her telepathy.
Scott and Storm were visibly surprised and deeply puzzled.
At that moment, they couldn't help but want to see that light for themselves.
What kind of light could kill two powerful mutants?
"Where is he now?" Scott inquired.
"I don't know." Raven shook her head and then said, "Okay, can I leave now?"
Scott hesitated for a moment, knowing there was no point in keeping Mystique, so he nodded.
Raven gave them one last look and left, intending to return to the Brotherhood of Mutants and report the situation to Erik.
After her silhouette disappeared, Storm spoke, "What should we do now?"
"Let's report this to the Professor," Scott said.
He took out his phone and called Professor X.
Soon, the call connected.
"Scott?"
"Did you find him?"
Professor X's voice came from the other end.
Scott glanced at Jean and the others and said, "Professor, we…"
He then recounted their encounter with Mystique and what she had told them.
"The boy used light to kill all those who were hunting him?"
Professor X frowned, focusing on the light.
"What kind of mutant ability is so powerful?"
At that moment, not only were Scott and the others surprised, puzzled, and curious, but he was also eager to meet that boy.
While he instructed Scott to continue searching for the boy, a storm was brewing online.
Since the host Irina announced that the government would deploy a secret weapon to capture the mutant boy, countless netizens had been following her updates.
At this moment, the internet was flooded with comments urging her for news.
"Irina, have they caught him yet?"
"What is the secret weapon?"
"Give us the latest updates!"
The flood of comments made Irina break into a cold sweat, feeling a bit panicked.
According to the latest information she had received, the operation had failed!
Even the secret weapon prepared had died at the hands of that boy!
With all this happening, how was she supposed to respond to the netizens?
At this moment, besides disbelief, she felt a deep regret.
If she had known, she wouldn't have made such bold statements about the secret weapon ensuring the boy's capture!
What should she do now? Should she tell the truth?
While she was at a loss, her boss called.
"What? Tell the truth?" Irina said in surprise.
On the other end, her boss's calm voice continued.
"This matter cannot be hidden. It's better to say it sooner to minimize the impact."
"But try to keep it brief and not damage the government's credibility too much…"
Hearing this, Irina felt relieved and smiled, "Don't worry, boss, I'll handle it!"
After hanging up, she immediately started preparing her script.
An hour and a half later, the highly anticipated live broadcast began.
Under the spotlight, Irina, dressed in a bright red dress, looked radiant and captivating.
"Hello, everyone. I'm your host, Irina."
With a sweet smile, Irina said, "Today, I'm here to tell you the outcome of the recent operation to capture the mutant boy."
Hearing her words, whether viewers harbored ill will towards mutants or were just curious, all eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Finally, there's an outcome. They succeeded, right? When will the mutant fugitive be shown?"
"With the secret weapon, that mutant kid must have been captured, no doubt!"
"When will the trial for that fugitive be?"
Viewers buzzed with discussion, eagerly awaiting Irina's announcement.
However, the next second, they heard an answer that left them stunned.
"Dear viewers, I'm sorry to say that this operation failed."
Irina sighed.
At those words, countless expressions froze, especially those who had been certain the mutant fugitive would be caught and tried. They were now incredulous.
Soon, curses erupted from the viewers.
"Shit, are the authorities all useless? They couldn't catch one person?"
"What happened to the secret weapon? Even with a secret weapon, they couldn't catch a mutant?"
"Trash!"
Amidst the overwhelming criticism, questioning how the authorities couldn't catch one mutant kid, Irina offered an explanation.
Sighing heavily, she said, "It's not as you think. The authorities really tried their best. That mutant was just too difficult to handle. He…"
After a brief hesitation, she said something that seemed unbelievable to everyone watching.
She slowly said, "That mutant boy used the power of light to eliminate everyone hunting him, including the secret weapon."
At those words, the many viewers watching the live broadcast were stunned.
Light?
The boy used light to eliminate everyone hunting him?
At that moment, everyone was both shocked and incredulous.
