Boom! Boom! Boom!
Amidst the missile bombardment, Syd soared towards the city at incredible speed. Simultaneously, people in the city heard the distant explosions.
After some investigation, they were shocked.
"Oh my God, are those missiles?"
"Who are the missiles targeting?"
"Is that Messiah?"
While they were in shock, General Luca and others in the military base were furious.
Just a little more, just a little more, and they would have killed Messiah!
If only they had more time...
Unfortunately, Messiah got close to the city, preventing them from continuing their assault! At this moment, they were filled with frustration.
But no matter how frustrated they were, they had to stop. Bombing Messiah within the city would have too great an impact.
Of course, while Messiah escaped this time, he wouldn't be so lucky next time; his death was inevitable!
On-site.
Landing in the city, Syd looked up at the sky, noticing that no more missiles were coming. His tense nerves slightly relaxed.
Ignoring the shocked bystanders, he chose a hidden direction and immediately flew away.
Seeing him fly away, the bystanders began to chatter.
"It really is Messiah!"
"He was attacked by missiles?"
As they speculated, Syd managed to evade the satellites' surveillance and found a secluded spot to rest.
As he basked in the sunlight to replenish his depleted light energy, he pondered his next steps.
Meanwhile, online discussions about him had erupted.
With the appearance of the White-Clad Man, also known as the White-Clad Freak, netizens were comparing his identity and strength to Messiah's.
A white youth furiously typed his opinion.
"Who cares about Messiah? The White-Clad Freak is way stronger. He could kill Messiah with just a word!"
Immediately, others stepped up to refute him.
"That's bullshit! Messiah is obviously stronger. That White-Clad Freak would turn to dust in an instant!"
"Right, Messiah is an Omega-level mutant. There's no way he'd be taken down so easily. Use your tiny brain to think for once!"
Feeling indignant, Felix, sneered and continued typing.
"So many Sentinel robots, and the White-Clad Freak made them disappear with a single word. Isn't that terrifying enough?"
"He's like a god. Why wouldn't Messiah be scared?"
"From what we've seen, the White-Clad Freak easily surpasses Messiah in terms of power and fear factor!"
Felix's argument had some merit and garnered quite a bit of support. Most people agreed that even among Omega-level mutants, there were differences in strength, and the White-Clad Freak clearly seemed superior.
Felix continued his tirade.
"In terms of threat level, the White-Clad Freak also beats Messiah hands down. Didn't you see how much more people fear and dread the White-Clad Freak?"
"Even the top brass probably fear the White-Clad Freak more than Messiah!"
"The attention given to the White-Clad Freak is unmatched by Messiah!"
"With such power, people worldwide probably fear he'd wipe them out with a single word..." With his continuous posts, comparing the two Omega-level mutants, the few remaining supporters of Messiah gradually fell silent.
Even they had to admit that in terms of displayed power and threat level, the White-Clad Freak seemed much more terrifying.
However...
Ever since Messiah's first appearance, they had been in awe and fear of him. Even though Messiah was a terrifying mutant, it didn't stop them from admiring his strength and
discussing him.
Seeing so many people support the White-Clad Freak now made them feel inexplicably uneasy, as if they were losing.
Just as they were feeling frustrated, a man named Igel had a revelation. Quickly, he posted a rebuttal that many people saw.
"You do have a point, but... you're all ignoring something!"
Seeing this post, Felix and the others felt puzzled.
"What are we ignoring?" Felix sneered, ready to type a rebuttal.
Then a new post appeared.
"Haven't you noticed? When Messiah first appeared, his strength was much weaker compared
to now."
"Back then, he struggled against ten captors. But now?"
"His power and abilities have grown to a terrifying level!"
This post left Felix and countless others in shock. Thinking back carefully, they indeed
realized that it was true!
If Messiah hadn't been hiding his strength...
Felix, feeling incredulous, typed, "Are you saying Messiah's power growth is abnormal and
he's getting stronger too quickly?"
But before they could dwell on this, Igel posted another shocking theory.
"Compared to the White-Clad Freak, Messiah's power is not only growing unusually fast, but
he also seems to be gaining more mutant abilities over time!"
"You can check some early videos and news about Messiah..."
This post sent shockwaves through the online community, making everyone, including Felix, feel a chilling sense of disbelief.
If this theory were true, then Messiah's potential and terror were far beyond what they
initially thought.
It could indeed be terrifying! S~eaʀᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
After a moment of shock, Felix quickly retorted, "Come on, this is just your guess. It's not
true..."
His post sparked more responses.
"Right, it's just your theory. No mutant is that scary; don't scare yourself to death!"
"Even if Messiah is an Omega-level mutant, he can't be that terrifying. Science and reason
still apply!"
Few people wanted to believe this theory.
As the debate continued, the topic of whether Messiah or the White-Clad Freak was stronger
drew more and more attention.
As the only two publicly known Omega-level mutants, they naturally attracted interest, especially with such a contentious topic.
Even at Stark Tower's Tony Stark, the X-Men, the Brotherhood of Mutants, and S.H.I.E.L.D.
were paying attention to the discussion.
