Chapter 237: Chapter 237

Chapter 237: Chapter 237[500PS REACHED!! I think!, Next Goal: 1000]

As the sound of a sonic boom echoed, Logan and the others instinctively stopped talking and turned to look.

The scene quieted down.

Looking at the figure floating in the sky, silhouetted against the sunlight, even though they knew he was an ally, Logan and the others couldn't help but feel pressure.

Before they could ask anything, Syd spoke first, "The Sentinel robots in this city have been cleared. There might be a few hiding, but there shouldn't be many left."

So quickly?

In less than an hour, dozens of Sentinels had been wiped out?

Logan and the others stared blankly at the figure in the sky, thinking of him as a god.

Syd then thought for a moment before continuing, "I heard you know the locations of several military bases. Tell me where they are."

Cyclops hesitated briefly, but in the end, he gave the locations to Messiah.

Whatever happens after that isn't his concern-he doesn't like the military much anyway.

Though he wondered if the Professor might have something to say about it later...

As these thoughts passed through Scott's mind, he shared all the information he knew, even pulling out a map from his pocket, which showed he had been prepared for this.

Syd floated down, took the map, and glanced at the five marked locations.

"I'll be going now."

With the map in hand, Syd didn't stay long. His body lifted off again.

Boom! The sonic boom resounded.

Blocking the gust of wind that followed, Logan and the others hesitated but could only watch as Messiah disappeared from view.

Noticing Iceman and the others looking dejected, Logan offered some comfort, "Don't worry, we'll meet Messiah again someday."

...

With that, they set off together, heading back to the X-Mansion.

At the entrance to the mansion, Professor X, who had been waiting for some time, smiled when he saw them return.

However, upon realizing Messiah had left, he sighed.

For some reason, he felt a deep fondness for Messiah. Even when Messiah did things like destroy a city, he instinctively chose to look the other way.

Originally, he had wanted to talk to Messiah, hoping to guide him and prevent him from losing control. But now, it seemed like there was no opportunity.

"I just hope there will never be a day when Messiah loses control..." Professor X murmured with a sigh.

--

While Professor X was deep in thought, Syd was sitting on top of a skyscraper, absorbing photon energy as he studied the map in his hand.

Soon, he selected the two military bases closest to his location.

As for the other three, he decided to ignore them for now to avoid giving the military time to prepare an ambush.

With that in mind, Syd entered a secluded area, activated his invisibility, and in the next second, flew towards one of the military bases marked on the map.

In less than ten minutes, he arrived at the location.

He deactivated his invisibility and hovered tens of meters above the ground, looking down at the somber military base below with a faint smile.

Blue light gathered in his hand as he prepared to unleash his Spirit Light Column.

But suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.

"That's right, the energy in the void space of my Rebound Shield has accumulated quite a bit..."

He remembered all the energy he had absorbed from missiles during past battles. "Perfect, I can save some photon energy and collect more energy points."

Thinking about the 74% unlock progress of Baldur's ability, Syd paused before releasing his Spirit Light Column.

He focused on the energy stored within the void space of his Rebound Shield, and the next second, he began to draw it out.

--

Inside the military base, some officers were working while others chatted idly.

"That damn Messiah, he's so arrogant, acting like we don't even matter..."

"When we get the chance, I'll show him who's boss..."

As they watched the news of Messiah destroying the Sentinels, many officers grumbled angrily, some even laughing and mocking him.

They joked around, not taking Messiah seriously at all.

After all, what harm could come from talking like this? Messiah wouldn't know, and he

couldn't touch them anyway.

But just as they were thinking that, a strange sound echoed from the sky.

One by one, the officers instinctively looked up.

Their eyes widened in terror and shock.

Above them, a massive explosion of fiery energy appeared in the sky.

Boom!

The energy stored in the Rebound Shield surged forth!

"What's happening? Why is there an explosion?!"

"No!"

In the terrified, disbelieving eyes of the officers, the explosion engulfed them.

Boom, boom, boom...

The deafening explosions rocked the area, sending the officers flying.

Looking down at the vast area affected by the blast, Syd raised an eyebrow in surprise.

But then he realized this outcome was normal-after all, he had been bombarded countless times, and the void space had absorbed a huge amount of energy.

Whether it was explosive energy or kinetic force...

Many of the missiles had detonated very close to him, and before they could fully explode,

most of their energy had been absorbed by the Rebound Shield.

All that energy had accumulated in the void space, and under his control, none of it had dissipated, leaving a massive reserve.

The military base below wasn't particularly large, so the entire facility was instantly engulfed Sёarch* The NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

by the explosion, swallowing everything within it.

The officers barely had time to feel fear before being consumed by the blast, perishing in

despair.

After scanning the base, now completely consumed by the explosion, Syd shook his head and

flew toward the next base.

As for the destroyed base, there was no chance anyone had survived.

Even a minor earthquake can kill people, let alone an explosion like this...

Syd didn't think the base had any high-level defense systems in place. Even if they did, the

officers wouldn't have had time to reach them.

Shortly after Syd left, the military learned of the incident.

They quickly pulled up footage from the scene.

"Was that an explosion?"

"What's going on?"

Staring at the footage of the explosion engulfing the entire base, numerous U.S. military officers were both shocked and confused, unable to understand what had happened to cause

such devastation.

"A terrorist attack?"

As for Messiah, they didn't even consider him a possibility.

After all, Messiah didn't have abilities like this. How could it have been him?

While they were still puzzled, someone pulled up another piece of footage.

The screen showed the blurry figure of a mysterious man in black.

"What is that?!"
