Outside the barrier.

The smile on Major Lox's face froze once again.

He hadn't expected the slap in the face to come so quickly!

Was Experiment No. 380 absurdly powerful, or what?

Or were all the members of the Superpowered Suicide Squad just too useless?

Just as Major Lox and the others were nearly losing confidence, the other members of the Superpowered Suicide Squad finally managed to turn things around.

When Carl prepared to repeat the same trick and fire another shot at the werewolf's head.

Her attack was successfully blocked by a dark yellow shield.

Clearly, Shield Man, who had been hiding at the very back, had made his move!

"Hmm?"

Carl slightly raised her brow, then increased her firepower.

She wanted to see whether her attack could truly break through the other party's "absolute defense"!

"Don't underestimate me..."

Shield Man in the rear suddenly felt immense pressure.

But to keep the barrier from being broken, he could only grit his teeth and endure.

What he found unbelievable, however, was that—

The energy blasts Carl unleashed seemed utterly endless, never stopping for even an instant.

What the hell?!

Wasn't that brat afraid of draining her life force ahead of time by wasting energy so recklessly?!

Reality soon dealt him a cruel blow.

Shield Man had no choice but to burn his life force and continuously squeeze out every bit of strength and potential in his body just to barely withstand Carl's sustained assault.

Even so, beads of sweat streamed down his forehead.

Blood continuously seeped from the corners of his increasingly pale mouth.

Anyone with eyes could see it.

Even without the side effects of [Temporary Compound V], Shield Man's life would reach its end after this battle.

But the truly tragic part was that no one cared about his... no, their lives!

While Shield Man used a small shield to protect himself and the werewolf.

The other three superpowered individuals who had been hiding behind him also made their moves one after another.

One of them pulled a box of matches from his pocket. After lighting one, he fiercely swung his other hand toward Carl.

Whoosh...!!!

A scorching firestorm instantly swept out from the tiny flame at the tip of the match.

In the blink of an eye, it engulfed Carl on the other side.

The raging flames rapidly drove up the temperature throughout the entire space.

Even from nearly twenty meters away, Major Lox and the others outside felt waves of searing pain on their skin.

Even the air entering their lungs became hot and burning...

"That bastard Fire Man! I clearly told him not to kill the brat!"

Major Lox's expression immediately darkened at the sight.

If Carl died, not only would he gain no credit or benefits this time.

He would very likely face severe punishment after returning!

But before he could reprimand Fire Man and tell him to stop, a deafening boom came from within the barrier.

A violently exploding torrent of energy directly scattered the scorching firestorm without leaving a trace, revealing Carl's proud, upright figure once more.

Clearly, Fire Man's attack had failed to break through the layer of "energy clothing" around Carl's body.

"What? She wasn't hurt at all??"

Major Lox and the others could hardly believe their eyes.

Fire Man nearly had his jaw drop as he cried out in disbelief, "Th-This is impossible!!"

The flames he had unleashed just now were hot enough to melt steel!

Yet they hadn't even managed to set her clothes on fire.

That was way too unreasonable, wasn't it?!

At that moment.

Another superpowered individual with [Mind Control] abilities chose to launch a sneak attack while everyone was stunned.

He narrowed his eyes, pressed a finger to his temple, and unleashed his power on Carl.

Buzz...!!!

An invisible psychic wave rippled outward like concentric circles across water.

"So there's even a psychic controller. This capture lineup really is extravagant. I just wonder what the last guy's power is."

Carl sensed the psychic power coming from him almost immediately.

But she simply ignored it, fixing her gaze on the last man in a hood.

It wasn't because Carl was overly arrogant.

Rather, during the pre-battle probing, this psychic controller had failed to notice Carl examining his memories.

That alone proved there was an enormous gap between them.

And indeed, that was exactly the case.

Carl's psychic power came directly from the [Mind Stone].

So in theory, any psychic attack launched against her was effectively an attack against the [Mind Stone].

The consequences were naturally easy to imagine...

Let alone this psychic controller who had been "force-grown" with [Temporary Compound V].

Even Professor X at his peak would have been equally powerless.

Because...

Even Professor X wearing Cerebro could not harm Loki holding the [Mind Scepter], or Thanos wearing the [Infinity Gauntlet] embedded with the [Mind Stone]!!

Sure enough.

The instant that psychic power touched Carl.

It was as though it had enraged some ancient god, instantly stirring up a towering tidal wave.

It surged back toward that psychic controller at an even faster speed!

The next second.

The psychic controller rolled his eyes back, foamed at the mouth, and collapsed to the ground in convulsions.

Under the impact of that incomparably violent psychic force, his brain directly entered a state of brain death.

"How could this happen? Even psychic attacks don't work on her?!"

By now, the smug confidence Major Lox had worn earlier had long vanished from his face.

All that remained was incredulous shock and deep concern.

He truly hadn't expected Carl to still hold absolute control over the battle despite facing six enemies alone.

This was far too unreasonable, wasn't it?!

Under normal circumstances, even Homelander, Vought Group's golden boy.

Would probably have been defeated when facing a capture force of this scale, right?

Could this brat, who had only gained superpowers a few days ago, really be a monster?

If the Superpowered Suicide Squad failed, how were they supposed to deal with this monster?

No... impossible!

How could the Superpowered Suicide Squad lose?!

They still had Speaker Man, who hadn't made a move yet.

At that thought, Major Lox hurriedly shouted, "Everyone, put on your noise-canceling headphones! Speaker Man is about to attack!!"

Inside the barrier.

Seeing his teammates suffer defeat after defeat.

The last superpowered individual slowly lifted the hood covering his head, revealing a square speaker head beneath it!!!

That's right.

It was as though someone had directly mounted a speaker onto his neck.

And where his facial features should have been was now replaced by a massive speaker, round on the outside and concave within.

It looked as bizarre as bizarre could be!!!
