Whoosh-
A damp wind blew as heavy rain poured from the sky.
Syd frowned, pausing his Photon Energy practice, and moved under a building to take shelter from the rain.
The rain finally stopped by evening.
[Ability: Photon Energy (19/500) Level 2]
ncing at his progress, Syd shook his head, looking forward to tomorrow''s sun.
Time passed, and soon it was the next day.
The sun shone brightly.
As the sunlight hit him, a series of notifications followed.
[Photon Energy +1]
[Photon Energy +1]
While Syd was practicing Photon Energy, the personnel at Base 23 received the arrival of the person they had been waiting for.
...
Base 23
"Finally."
Number One and Number Five, who had been waiting impatiently, looked towards the person being brought in from a distance.
Among them were Warden Marko, Captain Kenny, and Captain George, along with a dozen heavily armed soldiers. In the middle of them was the Bloodhound.
This person wore gray clothes, had yellow hair, and an ordinary appearance, looking around thirty years old-very unremarkable.
"Is he the Bloodhound?"
As the group approached, Number One asked impatiently.
Captain Kenny, standing next to the Bloodhound, nodded. "Yes, he''s the Bloodhound."
He then took out a pillow that the mutant boy had once used and handed it to the Bloodhound.
Under the watchful eyes of Number One and Number Five, the Bloodhound sniffed the pillow carefully and then started searching around the base.
Soon, he walked straight in a specific direction, seemingly having locked onto the scent molecules left behind by his target.
Seeing the Bloodhound determine the direction, Captain George and Captain Kenny secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
They had feared thatst night''s heavy rain would wash away the traces, but it seemed that a mutant''s abilities were exceptional; even after such a long time, he could still track the scent!
The group got into vehicles, following the Bloodhound.
The Bloodhound, moving swiftly ahead, resembled an actual hunting dog.
Time passed, and after about half an hour...
Suddenly, the Bloodhound, who had been running ahead, slowed down and stopped.
The area ahead was very secluded, and even the streets and houses looked very rundown.
"Are we near Number 37''s hiding ce?"
Captain George, getting out of the car, was excited, his eyes shining.
The Bloodhound nodded.
"We''ve found him, haha! Number 37, let''s see how you escape this time!"
Captain Kennyughed grimly.
Captain George also sneered. "Number 37, juste with us and be ourb rat!"
They began to set up their operation.
Click, click, click. Five Sentinel spiders crawled out of a safe, their mechanical eyes glowing red.
Meanwhile, Warden Marko led two men towards a distant high-rise building.
They would monitor the target from a high vantage point, using drones to lock onto his position. If they spotted him, they would immediately ry his escape location to George and the others.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even with the Bloodhound, they took these precautions to avoid any mishaps.
Looking at the remaining dozen people, Number Five casually said, "Leave this fight to us. You can watch or provide support."
Captain George and Captain Kenny nodded, feeling confident.
While they discussed, Syd also noticed something unusual.
"Syd, be careful!"
Venom suddenly emerged from his right hand, looking solemnly into the distance.
Syd''s brow furrowed slightly, bing alert.
He knew Venom''s senses were sharp and it must have detected something.
[Deflection Shield +1]
An invisible shield appeared in front of him.
Syd cautiously approached the outside and looked into the distance.
The next second, his expression changed slightly.
A group of familiar-looking people stood in the distance, one of them pointing towards him,
seemingly saying the target was inside...
[Spatial Transfer +1]
[Spatial Transfer +1]
In Venom''s astonished gaze, Syd''s figure disappeared from where he stood.
However, Syd frowned, realizing that no matter where he hid, the distant people seemed
always able to find his location.
Syd knew he had to deal with these people to escape.
The next second, maintaining his Deflection Shield, he walked outside.
...
Open Ground
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a mysterious figure in ck, with his face hidden by a
ck hood, walked out slowly.
"You finally came out!" Captain Kenny grinned maliciously. "Let''s see how you run this time!"
At this moment, a faint smile appeared on the metallic face of Number One. "Are you the so-
called Number 37, the waste?"
Number Five remained indifferent.
Captain Kenny sneered again. "Do you know who they are?"
"Compared to them, you''re nothing. Juste back to theb with us, haha..."
Heughed loudly, venting the frustration built up over repeated failures.
Finally, he could deal with this guy properly!
Captain Kenny was in a good mood.
Beside him, Captain George felt simrly, smiling broadly.
Number Five possessed super-speed healing and energy sts.
Number One had a metallic body, enhanced strength, heightened senses, and most importantly, pulse interference. How could this kid fight against that?
He sneered.
In a moment, even if Number 37 wanted to run, he couldn''t!
Without his abilities, Number 37 would be an ordinary person. How could he resist?
Syd tilted his head. "Is that so?"
"Heh..." Seeing Syd''s defiance, Captain George sneered. "You''ll soon see how powerful they
are. It''ll be miserable for you!"
As he finished, Number Five stepped forward, his expression calm and indifferent. "Alright,
let me y with you first."
Number One nced at him, crossing his arms, saying nothing.
Although he didn''t think highly of Number Five, dealing with Number 37 would be more than
enough.
Probably, Number 37 would be dead in a single move?
The nearby Captain George and others began to worry, fearing that Number Five might be too
harsh and kill Number 37 outright.
Under everyone''s gaze, Number Five made his move.
In an instant, terrifying red energy surged from Number Five, distorting the surrounding
light.
The energy wave forced Captain George and the others to retreat, their faces showing horror.
Such terrifying energy!
As this thought emerged, the next second, several meters of red energy burst forth like a giant
wave, sweeping towards Number 37!
Boom!
The ground disintegrated inch by inch in its path!
Under everyone''s shocked gaze, the red energy engulfed Syd.
Number 37 is finished...
This thought popped into everyone''s mind.
