On a distant helicopter, several researchers wearing white lab coats continued recording precious data they'd just observed.
This data was an important weapon against the White Devil in the future—it must not be lost!
The lead researcher dialed communications. The line immediately connected. An impatient, hoarse voice came through:
"Well?"
The researcher's tone revealed barely concealed excitement:
"Colonel Stryker, it worked!
The mutant suppression device is also effective against the White Devil. Though it can only suppress him for a few minutes, as long as we improve it, this duration will be greatly increased!
At that time, as long as the mutant suppression device is used on the White Devil, he'll become an ordinary mortal for extended periods!"
"Excellent!"
Hearing the news, Stryker was overjoyed—even a stiff smile appeared on his face that hadn't changed in ages.
"Seems the nuclear option doesn't need implementation. To deal with a mere White Devil, the mutant suppression device is sufficient!
Transfer all data and begin developing a device specifically to suppress the White Devil immediately!"
"Yes..."
At that moment, Stryker suddenly heard a loud noise from the other end.
"What happened?"
Then he heard the researcher's trembling voice:
"Quick! Activate the mutant suppression device and give us time to escape!
Colonel Stryker... the White Devil... the White Devil is pursuing us!"
"What?!"
Hearing the news, Stryker looked stunned—couldn't believe what he heard!
The White Devil could actually spot a helicopter ten kilometers away!
What did this mean?
This meant the White Devil's perception was more terrifying than he'd imagined—he could observe things at least 10 kilometers distant!
This also meant the nuclear option had almost completely failed, because at the White Devil's speed, as long as a nuclear weapon was discovered ten kilometers away, it could be easily avoided!
Nuclear weapons would no longer threaten him!
Damn it—when had the White Devil awakened enhanced senses again?
Was there no limit to his abilities?!
"Don't worry. Just send the data. You have a mutant suppression device. Escaping isn't difficult!"
Stryker comforted the researchers, wanting them to quickly transmit White Devil information.
His primary purpose remained those data files. After obtaining them, these researchers lost their value!
But what he said was what he believed. Researchers with mutant suppression devices could easily escape as long as they temporarily suppressed the White Devil's mutant abilities!
However, a desperate shout came through the headset:
"He stopped five kilometers away!
At such distance, today's version of the mutant suppression device can't affect him at all!
No—he's attacking us! That strange crimson singularity!
Ahh..."
After a scream, communications immediately cut off.
Stryker fell silent. Seemed the White Devil had discovered the mutant suppression device's existence, then used crimson singularities to kill researchers from a distance. This also meant the White Devil would be prepared for suppression devices in the future!
But this also meant another thing—the White Devil was still affected by suppression devices. As long as his abilities were successfully suppressed, the White Devil would no longer be a threat!
Looking at the transmission completion letters on the screen before him, Stryker showed a vicious smile...
Continuously using Blue to teleport, Leon approached the helicopter at high speed. Soon after, the helicopter appeared in his field of vision again.
He didn't approach the helicopter because he guessed it should also have a mutant suppression device.
Although after his abilities were suppressed, he with Six Eyes remembered the energy flow in his body when suppressed and could re-manipulate body energy the moment mutant abilities were suppressed—breaking free from suppression—he still didn't intend approaching the helicopter.
Create a weakness for yourself, then wait for enemies to exploit this weakness to attack you. The enemy's reaction will be very pleasant!
Leon stopped in midair. This position was still about 5 kilometers from the helicopter—also the suppression device's farthest range he could observe using Six Eyes.
Extending his palm, he put index and middle fingers together and pointed at the helicopter. Cursed energy began working. A crimson singularity quickly formed before him.
As his finger slightly raised, the terrifying crimson singularity flew out at high speed, forming a crimson ray visible to the naked eye in air!
Cursed Technique Reversal: Red!
Terrifying crimson rays pierced the sky, leaving a strange-colored meteor trail in the heavens, followed by loud noise breaking the sound barrier—enveloping all of New York!
Almost everyone looked skyward simultaneously. They saw a gorgeous crimson meteor carrying death, flying straight toward a poor, helpless helicopter!
BOOM!
Under the gaze of everyone who could see this scene, the helicopter was instantly shattered by the terrifying crimson meteor and transformed into an inconspicuous fireball!
And the crimson meteor continued flying forward, piercing air, splitting clouds, sinking into countryside outside the city—splashing tremendous dust!
Finally, dust slowly dispersed, leaving a massive circular crater!
"It's the White Devil! The White Devil!"
People immediately recognized the strongest mutant who'd dominated recent news. The entire city fell into chaos!
"The White Devil can actually fly! Is there really no limit for Level 5 mutants?!"
"His strength seems to have grown even stronger!"
"Where's the government? Where's the military?
Didn't they say they'd formulated a perfect plan to deal with the White Devil?"
In an empty New York warehouse, observers could see the crimson meteor and the white-haired demon standing in air.
Polaris stared at the scene before her blankly, immediately recalling when she'd met the White Devil before.
Those extremely cold eyes released unparalleled oppressive presence. Even though her abilities were already powerful among mutants, she still had no power to resist the White Devil!
In particular, his ruthless words made her remember deeply—letting her know from that moment that if she wanted mutants to rise, she couldn't rely on others, but only herself!
At that moment, companions around Polaris exclaimed:
"Look! That's the White Devil's mutant ability!"
"Wow, so cool! Is this the current strongest mutant?"
"We must also work hard to help the great White Devil in future battles with humans!
Under his leadership, mutants will eventually gain freedom!"
Polaris hesitated, not knowing whether to tell the cruel facts to companions around her.
Before the White Devil, even if they were all mutants and the same kind, but...
They were just insects like ordinary humans!
That man—he stood in the sky, gazing down upon everything!
Simultaneously, Leon—standing in the void high in the sky—heard the system prompt:
[Cursed Technique Reversal: Red Experience +1]
