Reverse Cursed Technique: "Red" Lv. 2 (1/300):: Generates repulsive force centered on Red. Its minimum power is twice that of Azure, and its maximum output is theoretically infinite—comparable to a small Supernova.
A flood of information poured into Su Mu's mind, rapidly increasing his experience with Reverse Cursed Technique: "Red"!
Su Mu used Reverse Cursed Technique: "Red" again. A Black-Red Singularity formed above his index finger, growing from the size of a mung bean to the size of a ping-pong ball. The repulsive force it emitted increased several times over!
Looking at the Black-Red Singularity on his fingertip, Su Mu couldn't help missing the Hulk and Abomination.
Of all the fights he'd experienced, they'd been the most satisfying to hit!
That solid, sturdy feeling was something he still couldn't forget!
"Wait. I overheard Coulson and Nick Fury talking earlier about a strange crater in New Mexico, with a hammer that nobody could lift lying at its center.
Doesn't that mean the God of Thunder's been banished by Odin and has already arrived on Earth?
The God of Thunder should be pretty satisfying to hit once he gets his powers back. And the Destroyer Armor controlled by Loki should be even more satisfying. They'll make great targets!"
A barely perceptible smile curled the corners of Su Mu's mouth...
He had a new source of entertainment!
When he found Spider-Woman again, she was no longer where she'd been before. She was standing atop a tall building instead.
Even if Spider-Woman hadn't helped him, he wouldn't have been in any danger. Still, Su Mu was grateful to her for helping him.
If not for her, he wouldn't have been able to keep the fact that the Mutant Inhibitor Device had no effect on him under wraps. That would've cost him quite a bit of fun.
"Thanks for your help. Next time we meet, I'll give you a present to show my gratitude!"
Su Mu's words piqued Gwen's curiosity. She wondered what kind of gift the powerful White-Haired Demon would give her.
Then the charming demon gave her a mysterious smile.
"Just you wait. I'm sure you'll love it!"
Gwen was about to say something when the White-Haired Demon stepped forward and vanished right before her eyes.
Only after he disappeared did she remember that she'd forgotten to ask why he'd grown so much stronger so quickly.
"Then I'll just have to wait until we meet again. I really am looking forward to it!"
Humming a tune, Gwen leaped from the building and swung away on her webs.
Su Mu didn't hurry straight to New Mexico. Instead, he went to a high-end restaurant to enjoy a meal.
At Lv. 3, he still couldn't use energy as a substitute for food, though he probably would be able to at Lv. 4.
Even if he could use energy to sustain his bodily functions, he still wouldn't give up eating. Food was one of life's great pleasures.
With Su Mu's appetite these days, he'd have to spend tens of thousands of dollars to fill up at a high-end restaurant. But to him, that was just a drop in the bucket, and he didn't give it a second thought.
As his strength gradually increased, making money was getting easier and easier, too.
As Su Mu left the restaurant and prepared to head to New Mexico to find the God of Thunder and have some fun, he suddenly noticed several familiar figures standing in front of him.
They looked a little different from their movie counterparts. If not for their distinctive features and the fact that they were gathered together, Su Mu might not have recognized them.
That's right. The people standing in front of Su Mu and blocking his path were members of the X-Men. Among them was Professor X, a kindly old man in a wheelchair with powerful telepathic abilities.
Cyclops, wearing specially made sunglasses, stood behind him and pushed his wheelchair. Phoenix, with her red hair, and Storm, with her white hair, stood beside them.
"The X-Men? What do you want with me?" Su Mu asked in confusion. Other than having Stryker as a common enemy, he had no connection to the X-Men.
Professor X studied the white-haired young man before him, his expression grave. In his perception, the young man was an empty void, as though he didn't exist at all!
He couldn't sense the young man's mind. It was like an ant standing on an elephant, unable to see the elephant.
To the ant, the elephant was an endless expanse of land!
The instant he saw the White-Haired Demon, Professor X understood that the young man was an even more frightening presence than Jean!
Even when facing Jean, he could sense her mind. But against the White-Haired Demon, his power had failed completely!
At Su Mu's question, Professor X gave him a kindly look and spoke slowly.
"Child, I'd like to invite you to join Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. The children there are just like you—they're Mutants.
"If you join the school, you'll never have to be alone again!
"Besides, your situation is extremely dangerous right now. The government and the military have already drawn up plans targeting you. No matter how powerful your mutant abilities are, you still won't be able to stand against them!
"Join us. The X-Men will negotiate with the government and the military and try to get the charges against you dropped!"
Cyclops and the others watched Su Mu with confidence. They were certain that if the White-Haired Demon wasn't a fool, he would agree to join Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.
First, they were Mutants, too. They knew what it was like to be hated by everyone around them after becoming a Mutant. They understood the loneliness of feeling abandoned by the entire world.
Mutants longed to be with their own kind!
Second, the government and the military were hunting the White-Haired Demon. He was powerful, but he couldn't stand up to the full force of their pursuit or attacks from large numbers of Mutants with all kinds of abilities. Even he wouldn't stand a chance!
When facing the forces Stryker had sent after him, the White-Haired Demon had nearly been killed.
Surely he understood that.
Once they brought the White-Haired Demon to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, the Professor could educate him and change his violent nature.
Then the X-Men would gain a formidable fighter!
Cyclops and the others eagerly looked forward to that day!
But the White-Haired Demon's reply shattered their self-satisfied fantasies and made them realize they'd never understood him at all.
"Sorry, I don't feel lonely, and I'm not interested in joining Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters!"
Cyclops stared at the White-Haired Demon in disbelief. He couldn't believe he'd said that.
Having been called a monster by his classmates after his mutant powers awakened, Cyclops couldn't understand it at all!
"If you don't spend time with other Mutants, won't people call you a monster? Won't they hate you?
"And what about the military coming after you? Even you can't face attacks from a whole bunch of Mutants whose abilities you don't know!"
The White-Haired Demon's lips gradually curled into a smile. It grew wider and wider until he stopped holding back.
"Ha ha ha... They insult me? I kill them! They hunt me? I kill them! They condemn me? I kill them anyway!
"I believe that as the death toll rises, they'll gradually realize their mistakes and change their minds. In the end, they'll come to this conclusion—The White-Haired Demon is an upstanding, law-abiding citizen!"
