The residents began to whisper among themselves.
“Dad, didn’t you say the police would definitely win?” “Well… it must be that the Mutant is too powerful.
Such a powerful Mutant is indeed rare!” “But didn’t he end up running away?
He doesn’t look that strong, hahaha…” The father quickly laughed it off to hide his embarrassment.
Although what he said made some sense, the power of the Mutant still left a deep impression on the girl’s mind.
It wasn’t just the two of them; the other residents also started discussing it.
“They lost.
These officers are so weak; they’re just parasites supported by taxpayers.” “Exactly, what a bunch of losers.
Who knows what they do with the taxpayers’ money!” The scene just now had truly shocked them.
The powerful police officers they envisioned, equipped with firearms, couldn’t even defeat a single Mutant?
Even though the teenager seemed to have been driven away in the end, it didn’t change the fact that they had failed and suffered heavy losses!
In the crowd, a young man in a suit holding a camera had eyes that were lighting up.
“Big news!
The video of the Mutant battling the police will definitely cause a stir online!” the young man, Danning, said excitedly.
Especially since the police didn’t even win—that makes it even more sensational!
He decided that after editing it a bit, he would upload the video online.
He had even thought of the title.
Mutant Teenager Battles Police, Police Defeated!
Danning’s eyes lit up.
While he was preparing to upload the video, and the residents were shocked by the police’s failure and the teenager’s power, Chris, who was in the crowd, was also in a state of shock.
Before, he had been worried, fearing that the kid would die, but now… He truly couldn’t believe that the teenager, who in his eyes could only absorb sunlight and fight in close quarters, actually possessed such strong strength!
Oh, now he understood everything.
“The Underground Room before, and suddenly appearing upstairs…” Chris connected everything in his mind and couldn’t help but feel shocked.
The black energy with power comparable to armor-piercing rounds, and the teleportation… So the kid really had flown to the upstairs bedroom before… Chris didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Is this what the kid meant by hiding a little bit of his Ability?” At first, he thought he had only hidden one Ability; he didn’t expect him to have hidden two more?
Thinking about how he had praised him earlier and thought he had done the right thing, Chris felt a bit awkward.
However, come to think of it, the kid really has a lot of Abilities.
Teleportation, black energy, plus the previously revealed sunlight absorption and that mirror-like Ability—the kid has four in total?
“Four Abilities, that’s actually pretty good.
Although none of them are individually strong, it’s rare among Mutants,” Chris sighed.
Although his Abilities still couldn’t compare to those powerful Mutants, relying on four Abilities gave him a certain level of combat power, and the overall practicality was quite good.
“the kid slipped away just now—was it because he couldn’t use his Ability anymore, or was his stamina running out?” Chris was thoughtful; with his rich experience, he sensed some clues.
It seems the kid’s Ability isn’t as convenient as one might think… Finally, a smile appeared on Chris’s bearded face.
“I really wonder what kind of expression Magneto would have if he knew he had a son with decent Abilities.” “And that Professor X…” “I remember the two of them are still hostile toward each other, right?
How interesting.
I really want to see their expressions when the time comes, haha…” As a former member of the Mutant Brotherhood, he naturally knew some things about the two of them, knowing they were once very close friends, but later had to part ways due to differing ideologies.
Professor X believed that Mutants could live in peace with humans, while Magneto believed that Mutants were stronger than humans, that humans had always been persecuting Mutants, and that humans should be eliminated.
The two fought constantly for their respective ideologies; Professor X’s X-Men and Magneto’s Brotherhood still often clashed even now.
However, even to this day, when the two met, they could still talk like friends and trusted each other deeply.
Chris couldn’t help but start fantasizing about the expressions on the two men’s faces after they learned the kid’s identity.
While he was fantasizing, police sirens sounded in the distance, and several police cars and ambulances surrounded the area.
Captain George looked at the team members being carried onto the ambulances; hatred flashed in his eyes, along with anger—anger toward the person who provided the wrong intelligence.
He began to organize the information, preparing to report the course of this battle and the intelligence error to the Base head, Alessandro.
At the same time, he was also prepared to question Captain Kenny as to why he provided him with wrong intelligence, causing him to get five team members killed!
the kid was clearly not as weak as the intelligence showed.
If it weren’t for the incorrect intelligence, they wouldn’t have underestimated the enemy, and they wouldn’t have suffered such heavy losses… While he was organizing the information to be reported here, Kevin, who had fled into the distance, was currently walking in a dark alley, not knowing where to go.
Now that he had left Chris’s house, he realized he didn’t seem to have anywhere to go.
Not only did he not have a place to stay, but he didn’t even have money… Memories of his foster family couldn’t help but surface in his mind.
“No, I can’t go back there.” Kevin shook his head.
Maybe the moment he arrived there, he would be caught by people from the relevant departments.
Just as he was frowning and thinking, a faint sound of footsteps rang out not far away.
“Who is it?” He looked over.
At just one glance, he was stunned.
He saw three shabbily dressed black men holding sticks and other items, looking at him with ill intent.
“What do you want?” Kevin frowned and asked.
Seeing that he had noticed them, the three black men chuckled.
“What do we want?
Hehe…” They exchanged glances, and a malicious glint flashed in their eyes.
“Kid, hand over the money and supplies on you.
Don’t force us to take action.” “Don’t think about resisting…” The tall Eli smiled all over his face and swung the stick in his hand hard.
The three looked at him with ill intent, their eyes full of contempt, not thinking for a second that the skinny teenager in front of them could do anything to them.
With those scrawny arms and legs, they could take one of him with a single hand, hehe… Kevin had an “as expected” expression.
At this point, he couldn’t even be bothered to complain.
Who would have thought that walking through a dark alley would actually lead to encountering thugs?
He had been wondering where all the thugs came from for superheroes to fight; it turned out he had overthought it.
Is this place just a mix of prosperity and chaos?
While thinking this, he said coldly, “I don’t have any money or things on me.
I advise you to leave, otherwise…” With his current fragile body, he was naturally no match for these three big, tall black men.
If he wanted to resist, he would have to use his superpowers… Eli and the other two were stunned, then they all laughed a bit, thinking the teenager in front of them was crazy; otherwise, how could he dare to say such things?
