As Number Five's red energy engulfed Number 37, no one believed he could survive.
Number Five's expression remained indifferent, as if he was used to this outcome.
Number One shook his head.
Captain George sneered, "I told you to come back to the lab with us. Why didn't you listen?"
Captain Kenny, on the other hand, felt a bit regretful, blaming Number Five for being too heavy-handed.
"What a pity. Looks like you won't escape this time, hahaha..."
However, as the red energy subsided, they were shocked by what they saw.
The red glow gradually faded, revealing the boy standing unscathed, as if nothing had happened.
What?
Number 37 didn't die?!
"Impossible!"
Captain Kenny stared in disbelief at Syd, standing unharmed. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
How could he be fine?
Captain George's sneer froze in disbelief.
Number Five's previously indifferent expression changed, his eyes widening in surprise.
Number One was also astonished.
How could this be?
While they struggled to believe their eyes, they heard the boy say calmly, "Returning to you."
The next moment, something even more shocking happened.
Boom!
A massive surge of red energy appeared in front of Syd and rushed towards Number Five! "You!"
Number Five, in disbelief, hastily countered with his own red energy.
Boom!
A flash of red light erupted, and as the dust settled, Captain Kenny and the others stared in shock.
Number Five's body was charred, his clothes mostly incinerated, and he looked utterly disheveled.
Had he reacted too slowly, or what? Number Five hadn't completely blocked the attack? But the most important thing was that Number 37 had used Number Five's ability!
"This is impossible!" Captain Kenny shouted, unable to accept it. "How did you do that?" "How can you have such an ability?"
"Were your previous displays not your limit?"
He was utterly incredulous.
Captain George, Number One, and the dozen soldiers were also in disbelief.
Number 37 has so many abilities?!
Others were shocked, but Number One and Number Five couldn't help but feel a surge of jealousy.
Why does he have so many abilities as a mutant?
It's not fair!
But, despite Syd's numerous abilities, it didn't mean they were afraid.
Under Syd's astonished gaze, Number Five's charred body began to change.
Muscles wriggled and healed, blackened tissue fell away, and new skin quickly regenerated.
Soon, a seemingly reborn Number Five stood before everyone.
"This is rapid regeneration, truly powerful!"
Captain Kenny and the others were visibly impressed.
Given Number Five's previous injuries, a normal person would have died long before infection set in. But Number Five recovered in less than a minute?!
What terrifying regenerative power!
"No wonder Number Five is called a monster!"
The soldiers' eyes were filled with fear.
If he could always regenerate like this, who could ever defeat him or kill him?
Captain George sneered, "You can't kill Number Five. See that? Stop struggling; you can't win. If you resist, you'll only find despair."
The others regained their confidence.
With Number Five's rapid healing and Number One's abilities, what chance did Number 37
have?
Number Five's eyes flashed red, "You've angered me!"
"Really?" Syd asked calmly.
Under everyone's expectant gaze, red energy once again surged from Number Five.
He extended his hand, forming a red energy blast.
Boom!
Number Five threw it forward.
As everyone watched, the boy in the black hood raised his right hand and casually swatted at
the red energy ball, like swatting a fly.
Crash!
The sound of shattering glass echoed.
In Venom's and everyone's stunned gaze, the red energy ball flew back at unimaginable
speed.
"Ah..."
Number Five screamed.
The red energy ball hit him, sending him flying.
His body crashed into a distant wall with a thunderous sound.
As the wall cracked, everyone could faintly hear the sound of bones breaking.
Looking at the disheveled Number Five and then at Syd, who had casually swatted the red energy ball away, everyone was dumbfounded.
What's going on...
How could this happen...
They could hardly believe what they were seeing.
Number Five, like an ant, couldn't even fight back?
This Number 37...
At this moment, Number One, with his rocky metallic skin, stepped forward.
Glancing at Number Five, he scowled impatiently, "Number Five, you're becoming more
useless. Can't even handle a kid, what a waste!"
In the distance, Number Five climbed to his feet with a look of resentment.
Number One's yellow eyes turned to Syd, and he sneered.
"Kid, don't think that just because you made Number Five look pathetic, you can win. I'm not
like him."
"He's a waste, but I..."
He sneered.
In the next moment, under everyone's excited and expectant gaze, his eyes glowed yellow.
"Pulse interference!"
Captain George and the others perked up, smiling broadly.
Number One's eyes glowed yellow as he sneered, "Under my pulse interference, you can't use
your mutant abilities!"
"How does it feel to have power but be unable to use it?"
"Hahaha..."
Number One laughed.
At this moment, Number Five, deliberately kept out of the pulse interference range, chuckled
coldly.
Red light surged from his body, forming a crimson energy ball in his right hand.
In the next second, he hurled the energy ball towards Syd!
Boom!
The red energy ball soared through the air, distorting the light around it!
Seeing this, the soldiers perked up, Captain George sneered, and Captain Kenny grinned.
Number One glanced over, unconcerned.
But in the next second, something unexpected happened!
Crash! The sound of shattering glass!
The crimson energy ball suddenly changed direction, flying straight towards the unconcerned
Number One's chest.
Boom!!!
Red light exploded, and Number One was sent flying, his body smashing into a distant wall.
Captain George and the others were stunned.
Syd tilted his head, "What pulse?" (End of Chapter)
