Magnetic Field Rotation

In a dim alley.

The lead punk was just about to speak.

The dagger in his arms suddenly flew out on its own.

Splat! Splat!

The sound of the cold blade tearing through flesh gave Gu Qing a pleasure that rose from the depths of his body and soul.

The stench of blood that followed intoxicated him even more.

"Oh! No!"

The lead punk collapsed to the ground in terror.

In an instant, the two companions beside him had died on the spot!

Their necks had been pierced through by the dagger, leaving bloody holes.

Blood kept gushing from them.

Before him, the bloodstained dagger hovered in midair.

Its dripping blade pointed straight at him.

Everything made him feel like he was breaking down!

The punk sat sprawled on the ground in fright, scrambling backward.

"Please! D-don't kill me!"

Gu Qing looked down at him, his eyes still carrying the exhilaration of unfinished business.

So this was what killing felt like?

It did not seem as hard to accept as he had imagined.

He wondered whether killing Schmidt would feel this satisfying too.

No!

Perhaps it would feel ten thousand times better!

Just thinking about it made him unable to suppress his excitement!

Using Telekinesis to drive magnetic field control really did produce twice the result with half the effort.

Developing the superpowers granted by the X-Factor had originally been a very difficult matter.

It required persistent training and fairly good talent before one could see any results.

Yet now, pairing Telekinesis with Erik's innate control over magnetic fields created a mutually reinforcing effect.

It greatly increased the speed at which Gu Qing grew stronger.

"I will become the strongest, super strongest, absolutely strongest! Never again will anyone make me feel that helpless threat of death!"

The punk no longer dared to move at all. It was as if what stood before him was not a human, but a ferocious god!

A peerless fiend standing at the pinnacle of the world!

Inside a somewhat shabby apartment.

Gu Qing looked around.

"The conditions aren't great, but I'll have to make do."

This was where that punk had lived.

Before killing him, Gu Qing had questioned him carefully.

The guy had no family. His mother was a prostitute, and he had never seen her since childhood.

His father was an addict who had been arrested for robbery and had yet to be released from prison.

This apartment was what his father had left behind.

And now, it had become Gu Qing's temporary base.

As for the corpses of those punks, Gu Qing had thrown them into the sewers.

The city's sewer system was vast, tangled, and full of filth.

A few punk corpses would not stir up any trouble.

He took stock of what he had gotten from them.

A total of one hundred and twenty-five US dollars.

It was enough for now, but it definitely would not last long.

But for Gu Qing, the most important thing at this stage was still testing his previous idea!

After casually eating something.

Gu Qing sat cross-legged on the sofa, using Telekinesis to guide Magnetic Field Power and make his own cells rub against one another.

As the saying went, electromagnetism was inseparable. Once Gu Qing developed his control over magnetic fields to a sufficiently high level, he would naturally be able to generate electric current.

But this time was different.

What he wanted to do was stimulate the Bio-Electric Current within the human body and form a Bio-Electric Field.

With that, he would strengthen himself and attain Magnetic Field Rotation!

One month later.

Inside the apartment, which had become even messier than before.

The center, however, was very clean.

Gu Qing sat cross-legged there.

His eyes were tightly shut, and every muscle in his body was taut.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

All kinds of objects in the room shook incessantly.

Tables, chairs, and appliances were all pulled over by an inexplicable force and crashed to the ground.

Only after a long while did everything return to normal.

"Yeah! I've finally entered this realm!"

Gu Qing opened his eyes, paying no attention to the mess in the room.

His eyes held nothing but delight!

Though he had already entered Magnetic Field Rotation and become a Magnetic Field Master.

Due to his insufficient strength, he had not even reached the minimum threshold for a Magnetic Field Master: the power of ten thousand horses.

The reason he had entered Magnetic Field Rotation so quickly was mainly because of Magneto's X-Factor.

He was practically a born Magnetic Field Master!

The difficulty of entering the Magnetic Field Rotation realm was far lower for him than for ordinary people.

Not to mention that he now had Telekinesis as support.

He held out his palm, blue-white arcs of electricity constantly flickering from his fingertips!

"Fifty Thousand Volts? That'll be enough for now."

—Bang!!

The old door was kicked open from outside.

"Bruno! You damned little bastard! I told you that if you dared make another sound, I'd cripple you!"

A White Thug with a bulbous red nose barged in.

He immediately spotted Gu Qing in the middle of the room.

"Hm? Kid, who are you? Tell Bruno to come out. Hiding won't do him any good!"

Gu Qing slowly rose to his feet.

He was completely different from a month ago.

Not only had he grown taller, his once-thin body had also become much more muscular.

Gu Qing's low voice rang out. "Do you know that electromagnetic force is an extremely powerful force? It is known as one of the four fundamental forces of the universe."

The White Thug frowned and snapped irritably, "What the hell are you talking about? I told you to bring Bruno out!"

But Gu Qing ignored him completely and continued, "Everyone has a magnetic field. Matter itself was born from the interactions of magnetic fields.

Atoms and molecules gather because of them. If magnetic fields were erased, what do you think would happen?"

The White Thug had already run out of patience.

He strode inside and stretched out a thick arm, reaching for Gu Qing's collar.

But at that moment!

—Bang!

The White Thug's body exploded without warning.

Blood, bones, and organs scattered everywhere like blossoms flung from the heavens.

Yet the instant they fell, they began to disappear strangely. If someone could observe them with microscopic vision, they would see that they had not disappeared, but had instead broken down into even smaller molecules.

In the end, only a wallet fell to the ground.

Gu Qing walked over and picked it up.

He saw several hundred US dollars in cash inside.

He nodded in satisfaction.

The money he had gotten from the punk Bruno had nearly been spent by now.

The food he had stored was gone as well.

If he wanted to continue his seclusion, he needed to replenish his food supplies.

After leaving the apartment, Gu Qing headed for the nearest supermarket.

He stuffed the US dollars into his pocket and casually tossed the wallet into a trash can.

The afternoon sky was somewhat gloomy, as though it had just rained.

Puddles covered the ground everywhere. The moment Gu Qing stepped into the supermarket, he heard a burst of laughter.

Looking closely, he found some old acquaintances.

Andrew held a toy and hid beside a shelf.

He secretly used Telekinesis to make a young woman's shopping cart roll away on its own.

Steve pretended to stroll past casually, but was actually using Telekinesis to toss plush toys from the shelves into the cart.

The woman shouted as she chased after her shopping cart.

Elsewhere, a little girl was choosing toys.

Matt controlled a teddy bear above her, making it float through the air and wave its arms.

The little girl was clearly terrified and let out a frightened scream.

She turned and ran away.

With their prank successful, the three immediately doubled over with laughter.
