The Unbelieving Number One and the Others

The Unbelieving Number One and the Others

As Number Five's red energy swallowed Number Thirty-Seven, no one believed he could survive.

Number Five's expression remained calm, as if he had long since grown used to this.

Number One shook his head.

Captain George sneered. "I told you to come back to the laboratory with us obediently. Why wouldn't you listen?"

Captain Kenny, however, felt somewhat regretful and blamed Number Five for hitting too hard.

"What a pity. Looks like you won't be getting away this time. Hahaha..."

However, once the red energy swept past, something that stunned them happened.

The Red Light gradually faded, and the boy's figure appeared in the same spot completely unharmed, as though not a hair had been touched and nothing had happened.

What? Number Thirty-Seven wasn't dead?! "Impossible!"

Captain Kenny stared in disbelief at Su Yao, who stood there unharmed.

How could he be fine? Captain George couldn't believe it, the sneer on his face frozen.

Number Five's calm expression vanished. His eyes, narrowed from boredom, flew wide open.

Surprise flashed in Number One's eyes.

How could this be? Just as they struggled to believe it, the boy in the distance said calmly, "Take it back."

The next second, something horrifying happened.

Boom! A massive surge of red energy appeared before Su Yao, then rushed toward Number Five! "You!"

Number Five could not believe it. Without time to think, he hurriedly commanded red energy to block it.

Boom! Red light flashed. When everything settled, Captain Kenny and the others widened their eyes in disbelief.

Number Five's entire body was charred black. His burns were severe, more than half his clothes had carbonized and vanished, and he looked utterly miserable.

Perhaps he had reacted too slowly, or perhaps for some other reason, but Number Five had failed to block it completely? Still, that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that Number Thirty-Seven could actually use Number Five's ability? "That's impossible!" Captain Kenny could not accept it. "How did you do that?"

"How could you possibly have such an ability?"

"Could it be that your previous displays weren't even your limit?"

He simply could not believe it.

Captain George, Number One, and the dozen or so soldiers beside him were equally incredulous.

Number Thirty-Seven had far too many abilities, didn't he?! While the others were shocked, jealousy uncontrollably rose in the eyes of Number One and Number Five.

Why was it that, as fellow mutants, he possessed so many abilities? It was unfair! Still, just because the other side had many abilities did not mean they were afraid.

Under Su Yao's astonished gaze, Number Five's carbonized body began to change.

His muscles writhed and regenerated strand by strand. Blackened tissue fell away, while skin rapidly formed.

Very soon, Number Five appeared before everyone as though he had shed a layer of skin.

"So this is Super Speed Self-Healing. It really is powerful!"

Captain Kenny and the others showed strange expressions.

With Number Five's previous injuries, an ordinary person would probably have died before the wounds could even become infected. Yet Number Five had recovered in less than a minute?! What terrifying regenerative power! "No wonder Number Five is called a monster!"

Fear appeared in the eyes of the dozen soldiers.

If he kept recovering like this, who could defeat him? Who could kill him? Captain George sneered. "You can't kill Number Five. Do you see now? Stop struggling. You can't resist. If you do, all you'll find in the end is despair."

At this point, the others regained their confidence as well.

With Number Five's Super Speed Self-Healing and Number One's ability, what could Number Thirty-Seven use to resist? At that moment, red light flashed in Number Five's eyes. "You've angered me!"

"Is that so?" Su Yao asked calmly.

Under everyone's expectant gazes, red energy emerged from Number Five's body once more.

He extended his hand, and a red energy projectile appeared.

Boom! Number Five threw it.

Before everyone's eyes, the boy whose face was hidden beneath a black hood raised his right hand and casually slapped the red energy ball, as though swatting an annoying fly.

Bang! Crack—the sound of shattering glass rang out.

As everyone, including Venom, stood stunned, the red energy ball flew back at an unimaginable speed.

"Ah..."

Number Five let out a scream.

The red energy ball struck his body and sent him flying backward.

His figure flashed past, then with a boom, he slammed viciously into a nearby wall.

As cracks spread across the wall, everyone could faintly hear the sound of bones breaking.

Looking at the miserable Number Five, then at Su Yao, who had casually swatted away the red energy ball as though swatting a fly, everyone stood dumbfounded.

What was going on...

How could this happen...

They simply could not believe what they were seeing.

Number Five was being beaten like an ant, unable to fight back? This Number Thirty-Seven...

At that moment, Number One, whose entire body was the color of rock and metal, stepped forward.

He glanced at Number Five, his rugged face twitching as he said impatiently, "Number Five, you're really getting worse with age. You can't even deal with a child. What trash!"

In the distance, Number Five, lying on the ground, climbed to his feet with an unwilling expression.

Number One's yellow eyes turned toward Su Yao, and a vicious grin appeared on his rugged face.

"Kid, don't think you've won just because you made Number Five look so miserable. I'm not like him."

"He's trash, but I..."

He gave a sinister laugh.

The next moment, under everyone's excited and expectant gazes, yellow light flickered in his eyes.

"It's Pulse Interference!"

Captain George and the others perked up, smiles appearing on their faces.

With yellow light flashing in his eyes, Number One grinned viciously. "Under my Pulse Interference, you can't use your Mutant Ability at all!"

"How is it? Do you feel like you have power in your body, but can't use it?"

"Hahaha..."

Number One burst into laughter.

At that moment, Number Five, who had deliberately been left outside the range of his Pulse Interference, let out a low, cold chuckle from afar.

Red Light emerged from his body, and a scarlet ball of red energy appeared in his right hand.

Then, in the next second, he viciously hurled the red energy ball toward Su Yao in the distance! Boom! The red energy danced through the air, warping the surrounding light! Seeing this, the soldiers perked up, Captain George sneered, Captain Kenny curled his lips into a smile, and Number One glanced over with an indifferent expression.

However, the next second, something happened that none of them expected! Crack—the sound of shattering glass rang out! Then, the red energy ball that warped the light abruptly changed direction and shot straight toward Number One's chest, where he wore an indifferent expression.

Boom!!! Red light exploded outward, and Number One was violently sent flying. His body spun through the air before crashing heavily into a nearby wall.

Captain George and the others stood dumbfounded.

Su Yao tilted his head. "What pulse?"

Everyone, get some sleep early. There will be an update during the day.
