Locking Onto Su Yao's Location. Whoosh—a slightly damp wind blew in as heavy rain poured down from the sky.

Su Yao frowned, temporarily stopping his practice of Sunshine Pervades and moving beneath a building to take shelter from the rain.

The rain did not stop until nightfall.

Ability: Sunshine Pervades (19/500), Level 2

Glancing at the panel, Su Yao shook his head and began looking forward to tomorrow's sunlight.

Time passed, and soon the next day arrived.

The sun shone brightly.

As sunlight fell upon him, notification sounds rang out one after another.

While he practiced Sunshine Pervades, Number Twenty-Three Base also welcomed the person they had been waiting for.

Number Twenty-Three Base.

"They're finally here."

Number One and Number Five, who had grown somewhat impatient from waiting, looked toward a person being brought over in the distance.

Prison Guard Marco, Captain Kenny, and Captain George were among them. Besides them, there were over a dozen fully armed soldiers, with Hound standing in their midst.

He wore gray clothes, had yellow hair, and possessed an ordinary-looking face. He appeared to be around thirty years old and looked utterly unremarkable.

"He's Hound?"

When they drew closer, Number One asked impatiently.

Captain Kenny, standing beside Hound, nodded. "That's right. He's Hound."

As he spoke, he took out a pillow the mutant teenager had once used and handed it to Hound.

Under Number One and Number Five's watchful gazes, Hound carefully sniffed the pillow before beginning to circle the base in search of something.

Very soon, he headed straight in one direction, seemingly having already locked onto the scent molecule traces left behind by the target.

Seeing Hound confirm the direction, Captain George and Captain Kenny secretly breathed sighs of relief.

They had feared that last night's heavy rain had ruined the traces. They had not expected a mutant to still be able to follow them and find someone after so long! Everyone got into the cars and followed behind Hound.

Like an actual hound, Hound raced ahead at astonishing speed.

Time passed, and more than half an hour quickly went by...

Suddenly, Hound, who had been running ahead, gradually came to a stop.

The area ahead was very remote. Even the streets and buildings looked filthy and old.

"We're close to where Number Thirty-Seven is hiding?"

After getting out of the car, Captain George's eyes lit up, his face filled with excitement.

Hound nodded.

"We found him, hahaha! Number Thirty-Seven, let's see where you run this time!"

Captain Kenny beside him laughed viciously.

Captain George sneered as well. "Number Thirty-Seven, just come back with us obediently and become an experimental subject!"

Everyone began making preparations.

Click, click, click. Five black Sentry Spiders crawled out of a safe, their mechanical eyes glowing with Red Light.

At the same time, Prison Guard Marco led two people toward a tall building in the distance.

They would monitor the target from above and use drones to lock onto his location. If they spotted him, they would immediately use their communicators to accurately tell George and the others where the target had fled.

With Hound present, none of this should have been necessary, but they feared something might happen to him. These measures were purely for insurance.

Glancing at the more than ten people remaining, Number Five said indifferently, "Leave this battle to us. You can watch from the side or provide support."

Captain George and Captain Kenny nodded, both feeling highly confident.

While they discussed matters over there, Su Yao also noticed something unusual.

"Su, be careful!"

Venom suddenly emerged from his right hand, looking solemnly into the distance.

Su Yao's brows knitted slightly as he became alert.

He knew Venom's senses were sharp. It must have detected something.

Reflection Shield Experience +1

An invisible Reflection Shield appeared before him.

Su Yao cautiously moved closer to the outside and looked into the distance.

The next second, his expression changed slightly.

A group of familiar-looking people stood far away. One of them was pointing in this direction, seemingly saying that the target was inside...

Under Venom's stunned gaze, his figure vanished from the spot.

However, Su Yao's face sank when he realized that no matter where he hid, the people in the distance always seemed able to find his location.

Su Yao knew that unless he dealt with these people, he probably would not be able to leave.

The next second, maintaining the Reflection Shield, he walked outside.

An open area in the distance.

Under countless watching eyes, a mysterious figure dressed in black, his face hidden beneath a black hood, slowly emerged.

"You finally came out!"

Captain Kenny gave a vicious grin. "Let's see where you run this time!"

At that moment, a faint smile appeared on Number One's metallic face. "You're the useless Number Thirty-Seven they were talking about?"

Number Five's expression remained calm.

Captain Kenny sneered again. "Do you know who they are?"

"Compared to them, you're utterly insignificant. This time, just come back to the laboratory with us obediently, hahaha..."

He burst into laughter, venting the frustration he had endured time and time again.

This time, he could finally make this guy suffer! Captain Kenny was in a very good mood.

Captain George beside him felt much the same, his face full of smiles.

Number Five possessed Super Speed Self-Healing and Energy Impact.

Number One possessed Body Metallization, Strength Enhancement, and Five Senses Enhancement. Most importantly, he had Pulse Interference. How could this kid deal with that? He sneered.

Even if Number Thirty-Seven wanted to run later, he would not be able to! Once he lost his abilities, Number Thirty-Seven would just be an ordinary person. What could he use to resist?

Su Yao tilted his head. "Is that so?"

"Heh..." Seeing that he still refused to repent, Captain George sneered. "You'll soon witness how formidable they are. You'll suffer terribly!"

After he finished speaking, Number Five stepped forward, his expression calm and unconcerned. "Enough. Let me play with you first."

Number One glanced at him, folded his arms, and said nothing.

Though he looked down on Number Five, Number Five was more than enough to deal with this Number Thirty-Seven.

This Number Thirty-Seven would probably die after a single exchange, right?

Captain George and the others nearby also became worried, afraid that Number Five would not know his own strength and would kill Number Thirty-Seven just like that.

Under everyone's gaze, Number Five made his move.

In an instant, terrifying red energy surged from Number Five's body, even warping the surrounding light.

A blast of air swept out, forcing George and the others nearby to retreat again and again, horrified expressions appearing on their faces.

What terrifying energy! The moment this thought surfaced, red energy several meters high erupted like a massive wave and swept toward Number Thirty-Seven! Boom! Wherever it passed, the ground vanished inch by inch! Under everyone's shocked gazes, the red energy engulfed Su Yao.

Number Thirty-Seven was finished...

This thought appeared in everyone's minds.

The next second!
