Looking at the abandoned cabin in front of him, Kevin walked straight in.
But shortly after he entered, he stopped.
“Who are you?
How did you get here?” Two men and one woman emerged from a nearby room, their eyes filled with vigilance.
Kevin observed the two men and one woman.
The three of them looked to be in their twenties or thirties; the two men’s faces were covered in stubble, appearing somewhat disheveled, while the woman looked a bit better, but not by much.
Their clothes were very worn, and they didn’t look like the original owners of the house, but rather vagrants.
Kevin briefly explained, “I thought no one was here, so…” Seeing his good attitude and that he didn’t look like a bad person, the three of them subtly relaxed.
“We’ve claimed this place, please leave.” Mark, the older and seemingly more steady of the three, spoke up.
Hearing this, Kevin understood another layer of meaning and asked, “This house isn’t yours?” “We’ve claimed it, so it’s ours.” Mark frowned, looking at the young man in front of him, annoyed by his lack of tact.
The other man and woman thought the same, feeling very displeased, believing the young man in front of them was tactless; they were three people, yet he still dared not leave.
Is this guy really that bold?
Another younger, muscular blonde youth angrily said, “If you don’t leave, we’ll beat you out!” Just then, something unusual happened to the agitated youth, catching Kevin’s attention.
His body suddenly swelled significantly, muscles bulging, making him look like a large gorilla, incredibly robust.
“Mutant?” A strange light flashed in Kevin’s eyes.
At this moment, before he could do anything, his two companions became anxious first.
“Kirill, are you okay?” “Calm down, Kirill!” “Hoo hoo…” Kirill gasped, trying to calm himself down.
After his body returned to normal, he said, “I’m fine, I just got a little too excited and lost control of my ability.” The other two sighed in relief upon hearing this and nodded.
“This person saw Kirill transform, what should we do?” The red-haired young woman said with a frown.
After she spoke, the three of them exchanged glances, and some malice involuntarily emerged.
By now, Kevin had pretty much figured out the situation.
“So, they’re three Mutants hiding here.
That makes things easier.” Kevin fell into thought.
Neither expelling them nor killing them was suitable, as both would cause too much commotion.
So, the only option was to subtly reveal his ability and show his identity as one of them.
The three people nearby had cold expressions.
After quietly exchanging glances, Mark made a gesture, indicating to proceed with their pre-planned action.
Just as they were about to cooperate and silently take down the young man in front of them, a scene that left them dumbfounded appeared!
A Black Particle emerged from the young man’s finger, then struck the ground in front of them with lightning speed.
[Black Particle experience +1] The sound of friction and cutting came, and a deep, egg-sized hole appeared on the ground.
“Hiss…” The three gasped, cold sweat immediately breaking out on their foreheads.
This power…
if it hadn’t hit the ground, but rather them…
The three couldn’t help but imagine it, and a sense of fear arose in their hearts.
This young man’s ability is terrifying, much more powerful than ordinary gun bullets; if they were hit, they would surely die!
After the shock, looking at the golden eyes the young man revealed under the sunlight, Mark hesitantly asked, “Are you also a Mutant?” Kevin nodded.
Although they had already determined it, seeing him nod, Mark and the other two still couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After confirming he was one of their kind, their hostility greatly diminished.
Mark introduced, “My name is Mark, the guy next to me who can turn into a big brute is Kirill, and the other one is my younger sister.” “Hello, my name is Heidi.” The red-haired woman gave an awkward smile.
“You can call me Su.” The three nodded.
After exchanging names, the more impulsive Kirill curiously asked, “Buddy, why did you come to a place like this?” As he spoke, he glanced around, as if to say, he actually came to such a rundown place.
Kevin thought for a moment and didn’t answer first, but instead asked, “What about you?” “We…” Kirill hesitated and said, “We’re on the run.” He shrugged, “Uh, you know, because we exposed our abilities, we were reported, and then…” “My situation is similar to yours.” Kevin said casually.
Listening to his words, the three quickly imagined a series of scenes in their minds, even figuring out why he came here.
The three looked at him with sympathetic eyes.
At this moment, Kirill eagerly and excitedly asked, “Su, was that your ability just now?
It looks so cool!” “The power is quite good.” Heidi, who was beside him, also praised.
Kevin nodded vaguely, then curiously asked, “What about your abilities?” Mark said, “You’ve seen Kirill’s ability, mine is X-ray Vision, as for my sister…” He looked at Heidi, signaling for her to speak for herself.
“My ability is Clairvoyance; I can see things within a kilometer!” Heidi smiled subtly.
Before she could finish speaking, Kirill excitedly shared, “Hey, you don’t know, their abilities are amazing, they can even be used together!” “Hehe, it’s also thanks to the two of them that we’ve been able to hide for so long.” “Oh, and of course, with the aid of my keen five senses, we can…” He was chattering away, but Kevin, hearing this, became somewhat thoughtful.
He murmured, “Using abilities together, huh…” He knew about this situation; in his previous life, when watching U.S.
dramas, he had seen some similar examples.
For instance, a brother and sister, whose individual abilities were quite ordinary, but when they held hands and used their abilities together, they could unleash enough power to destroy a building!
Of course, this kind of cooperation also had conditions: it required a blood relation to combine, and the abilities also had to be compatible.
“These two combined can probably see anything within a kilometer, right?” Kevin sighed.
After introducing their abilities to each other, both sides had established some trust.
When Kevin proposed staying for a night, they hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
During the process, Kirill even enthusiastically helped him tidy up his things.
After everything was tidied up, Kevin glanced at the three people discussing something in the distance, then shifted his attention to the panel.
Looking at the more than one thousand energy points that were still constantly increasing, anticipation gleamed in his eyes.
“It should be enough to awaken the next ability.
I wonder what the next ability will be, I’m really curious!” Thinking this, with full anticipation, Kevin invested all his energy points into the unlock progress.
