A few researchers in white lab coats aboard a helicopter in the distance hurriedly recorded the valuable data they had just observed.

This data would be a crucial weapon against the White-Haired Demon in the future. They absolutely could not lose it!

The lead researcher made a call. It connected at once, and an impatient, hoarse voice came from the other end.

"How did it go?"

The researcher's voice brimmed with undisguised excitement.

"Colonel Stryker, it worked!

"The Mutant Inhibitor Device works on the White-Haired Demon, too. It can only suppress him for a few minutes, but once we improve it, that duration will increase significantly!

"Then, as long as we use the Mutant Inhibitor Device on the White-Haired Demon, he'll become an ordinary human for a long time!"

"Excellent! Excellent!"

Hearing the news, Stryker was overjoyed. Even his usually impassive face managed to form a stiff smile.

"Looks like there's no need to carry out the nuclear bomb plan. A mere White-Haired Demon is no match for the Mutant Inhibitor Device!

"Transmit all the data. Starting now, begin developing the White-Haired Demon Suppression Device immediately!"

"Yes..."

Just then, Stryker suddenly heard a commotion on the other end.

"What happened?"

He then heard the researcher reply in a trembling voice:

"Quick, quick, quick! Activate the Mutant Inhibitor Device and buy us time to escape!

"Colonel Stryker... the White-Haired Demon... he's coming after us!"

"What?!"

Stryker stared in shock, unable to believe what he'd just heard!

The White-Haired Demon could detect a helicopter ten kilometers away!

What did that mean?

It meant the White-Haired Demon's senses were far more terrifying than he'd imagined. He could observe things at least ten kilometers away!

It also meant the nuclear bomb plan had practically failed before it even began. Given the White-Haired Demon's speed, all he had to do was spot a nuclear bomb from ten kilometers away to evade it with ease!

Nuclear weapons would no longer pose any threat to him!

Damn it, when had the White-Haired Demon awakened sensory abilities?

Did his powers have no limits?!

"Don't panic. Transmit the data. You have the Mutant Inhibitor Device, so escaping shouldn't be difficult!"

Stryker tried to reassure the researchers, hoping they'd quickly send him the information about the White-Haired Demon.

His main goal was still to get the data. Once it was in his hands, the researchers would have served their purpose!

Besides, he meant what he said. If the researchers used the Mutant Inhibitor Device to temporarily suppress the White-Haired Demon's mutant powers, they could escape with ease!

But then a desperate shout came through his earpiece:

"He stopped five kilometers away!

"At this distance, the current version of the Mutant Inhibitor Device can't affect him at all!

"No, he's attacking us! It's that bizarre Black-Red Singularity!

"Ah..."

After a scream, the call abruptly cut off.

Stryker fell silent. It seemed the White-Haired Demon had discovered the Mutant Inhibitor Device, which was why he'd used the Black-Red Singularity to kill the researchers from afar. That also meant he'd be on guard against the device from now on!

But it also meant something else: the White-Haired Demon was still vulnerable to the device. As long as they successfully suppressed his abilities, he would no longer be a threat!

Seeing the words "Transfer Complete" on the screen before him, Stryker grinned viciously...

Using Technique Reversal "Azure" to teleport repeatedly, Su Mu rapidly closed in on the helicopter. Before long, it appeared in his field of vision once more.

He didn't approach it. He suspected that the helicopter had a Mutant Inhibitor Device on board as well.

Although the Six Eyes had allowed him to memorize the energy flow within his body while his abilities were suppressed, letting him take control of his energy again the moment his mutant powers were suppressed and break free, he still had no intention of going near the helicopter.

Creating a weakness for himself, then waiting for the enemy to exploit it and attack him—he imagined their reaction would be quite satisfying!

Su Mu stopped in midair, about five kilometers from the helicopter. That was the maximum range of the inhibitor that he'd observed with the Six Eyes.

He extended his hand, pressed his index and middle fingers together, and pointed them at the helicopter. As Cursed Energy surged through him, a Black-Red Singularity quickly formed before him.

With a slight lift of his fingers, the terrifying Black-Red Singularity shot forward, forming a visible black-and-red beam in the air!

Reverse Cursed Technique "Red"!

The terrifying black-and-red beam tore across the sky, leaving behind a strange-colored meteor trail. Then came a sonic boom that thundered over all of New York!

Almost everyone looked up at the same time. They saw a dazzling black meteor wrapped in death, hurtling straight toward a poor, helpless helicopter!

BOOM!

As everyone who could see it watched, the terrifying black meteor smashed the helicopter to pieces in an instant, reducing it to an insignificant burst of flame!

The black meteor kept flying, piercing the air and cleaving through the clouds before vanishing into the wilderness outside the city and kicking up a towering cloud of dust!

At last, the dust slowly settled, revealing a massive, circular crater.

"It's the White-Haired Demon! It's the White-Haired Demon!"

People immediately recognized the most powerful Mutant, whose name had recently dominated the headlines. The entire city descended into chaos!

"The White-Haired Demon can fly now! Could it be that even Level 5 Mutants have no limits?!"

"He seems to have gotten even stronger!"

"Where's the government? Where's the military?

"Didn't they say they'd come up with the perfect plan to deal with the White-Haired Demon?"

In an empty warehouse in New York, the black meteor and the White-Haired Demon standing in midair were both clearly visible.

Polaris stared blankly at the sight before her, immediately recalling her previous encounter with the White-Haired Demon.

Those utterly cold eyes had radiated an overwhelming pressure. Though her powers were already formidable among Mutants, she'd been utterly helpless against the White-Haired Demon!

His merciless words had left a deep impression on her. They'd also made her understand that Mutants couldn't rely on others to rise up. They could only rely on themselves!

Just then, her companions cried out in amazement.

"Look, that's the White-Haired Demon's mutant power!"

"Wow, that's so cool! Is this the strongest Mutant right now?"

"We have to work hard, too, so we can help the great Lord White-Haired Demon in the coming war against humanity!

"Under his leadership, Mutants will finally win their freedom!"

Polaris hesitated, unsure whether to tell her companions the cruel truth.

Before the White-Haired Demon, even though they were all Mutants, all members of the same kind, they...

They were no different from ordinary humans. They were all just ants!

That man stood in the sky, looking down on everything!

At the same time, Su Mu, standing in midair high above, heard the system's notification:

"Reverse Cursed Technique 'Red' Experience +1"

"Congratulations! Your skill, Reverse Cursed Technique 'Red,' has leveled up!"
