Hearing the female host on TV say that some useful surveillance footage had been retrieved, possibly containing information about the White-Robed Mutant's abilities, Luo Gen and his two companions paused their discussion and stared at the television.

Mutant Ability are the most important thing for Mutants, and also the basis for judging how powerful a Mutants is. Speaking of which, they were also a little curious about what kind of abilities this Mutants, who had appeared in the last twenty-five years, would possess. Would he be like Caliban, with only ordinary auxiliary abilities?

At this moment, the female host's gentle voice continued to play.

"This Mutants, on the surface, has the ability to fly for unknown reasons, but what exactly this ability is, we may be able to see some specific information in the surveillance footage we retrieve."

As the female host finished speaking, the television screen switched to a surveillance camera feed on a street.

In the surveillance footage, under the bright sun, a figure dressed in white, exuding a strange aura, slowly descended from the sky and floated onto the street.

In the surveillance footage, passersby screamed and ran away.

When there were few people around, they saw the White-Robed Mutant look at the vending machine not far away and then extend his right hand.

Seeing this, Luo Gen and the others were slightly puzzled, wondering what this Mutants was doing.

The next second, they knew what this person was doing.

His outstretched right hand seemed to disappear into something, vanishing completely.

Before they could express their doubts, the surveillance video paused, and at the same time, the female host's voice rang out.

"Did everyone see that? His hand disappeared!"

"You must be wondering, where did his hand reach?"

Hanna explained seriously, "Look closely at that vending machine and see what's inside!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Gen and the others, who were still puzzled, couldn't help but look at the vending machine.

Just then, the video feed zoomed in on the vending machine.

As everyone observed more closely, they were surprised to find a hand inside the vending machine—a hand that had suddenly appeared.

"This is?"

"The ability to retrieve objects remotely?"

Upon seeing this, everyone, including Luo Gen, began to speculate, and they all basically had their own answers.

The next second, the paused surveillance video resumed playing.

A can of cola was grabbed directly by the White-Robed Mutant. As he withdrew his right hand, a can of cola appeared in the White-Robed Mutant's hand some distance away.

Now they were even more certain of their suspicions.

At this moment, the female host Hanna's voice continued to ring out.

"This is the surveillance footage we retrieved. I think everyone can guess some things from the footage, right?"

"I suspect that this White-Robed Mutant possesses some spatial abilities."

Fear stems from the unknown; once people learned about this Mutants's specific abilities, countless others felt relieved.

So that's the kind of ability? It looks impressive, but it's simply impossible to resist a fully armed force's encirclement and suppression.

In a laboratory.

Dr. Rice, who orchestrated the Genetically Modified Food, was also keeping an eye on this newly emerged Mutants at this time.

A look of surprise appeared in his eyes; he wondered where this Mutants had come from.

He had no recollection of this particular Mutants created later in life.

"Natural Mutants?"

"How can someone naturally awaken Mutant Ability after consuming food that suppresses the X-Gene?"

Dr. Rice expressed surprise and bewilderment.

Putting that aside, the White-Clothed Man floating in the air also piqued his interest.

"This Mutants's abilities are decent; they have some research value."

"Once this guy is caught, maybe I should go and ask for him to study."

Dr. Rice looked middle-aged or elderly and had an M-shaped bald head, thought about it with great interest.

Luo Gen and the others were in front of the television.

Professor X's eyes gleamed with anticipation. "This kid seems to have good abilities; he's another Mutants kid worth nurturing."

He spoke happily for a moment, then his smile vanished, and he murmured, "If only our X School were still here, this kid..."

Caliban and Luo Gen, who were standing nearby, fell silent upon hearing this.

At this moment, Caliban couldn't help but say, "Enough of that. This child may be quite capable, but he can't possibly escape."

"With so many guns, he can't even run away. Even if X School were still there, he wouldn't have a chance to get in."

Hearing Caliban's hurtful words, Professor X froze, then looked downcast, before turning his expectant gaze to Luo Gen.

Luo Gen felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, and sighed, saying, "Professor, it's too late."

Just then, something surprising happened to them, something that astonished Dr. Rice.

In the surveillance footage, after the White-Robed Mutant finished his cola, a Red Light suddenly appeared on his hand. With a flash of Red Light, the empty can vanished instantly. "Was it moved to another location?"

Dr. Rice was a little surprised, but his interest grew even stronger.

Not only him, but everyone who saw this scene was stunned, and then they all had the same thought.

At this point, the surveillance video disappeared and was replaced by a normal video feed.

On television, the female presenter Hanna reappeared.

She laughed and said, "This is a clip of surveillance footage that we captured. After watching this footage, I think everyone should have no more doubts about the Mutants's abilities."

"Overall, this Mutants is still somewhat dangerous, but it doesn't matter. I think they will definitely succeed in capturing this Mutants is disrupting social order."

As she spoke, the host Hanna, stepped aside and pointed to the police officers and special service members whose figures were partially visible in the distance.

When the cameras captured those handguns and other objects, countless people thought the same thing.

The scene is near the street.

A middle-aged woman dressed in a beautiful black dress and carrying a brown handbag chuckled and said, "As Mutants rat from the sewers, you dare to scare me into appearing in front of you? This is what you deserve!"

She made one of those tip-off calls that appeared at the police station not long ago.

Now, she watched with great interest, wondering how long the Mutants in the distance could hold out.

She wasn't the only one; other members of the public thought the same way.

Under their watchful eyes, a group of fully armed police officers slowly surrounded the area, raising their guns and aiming them at the White-Robed Mutant floating in the air.

At that moment, a shout came from above.

"That Mutants in the sky above the road, come down immediately!"

"Your current behavior has seriously disrupted social order, and we need you to come with us!"

"Please obey my orders and do not resist, or we will attack!"

After a shout, the White-Robed Mutant, who in their eyes had been admiring the scenery and hadn't noticed anything amiss, finally turned his gaze toward them.
