The resting room had Ace, Cyan, and Liam, as well as a few others. Perhaps all of them were underlings of different bosses on the inside. They sat in different positions, clearly not wanting to touch each other even a bit. Ace's group stood in a corner near the door. They all remained silent; their gazes lowered, but their bodies were tense, showing they were still on guard.At this moment, Ace suddenly opened his eyes and stood up. His movement was so abrupt that Cyan and Liam couldn't help but look over. Even the people around them couldn't help but glance at them momentarily before quickly looking away.Cyan looked at Ace, slightly furrowing his brows, and asked, "What's going on?"Cyan wasn't entirely sure about Louis's subordinate. Louis seemed friendly, at least on the surface, but Ace appeared somewhat daring as if only Louis could restrain him. This made Cyan uneasy, and he hoped Ace wouldn't take any reckless actions.Ace furrowed his brows slightly and looked at Cyan,
The ice spread rapidly, and the group familiar with the terrain jumped up to avoid the icy ground.As soon as his feet touched the ice, Louis paused momentarily, exhaling cold air. He couldn't help but look at Cyan.Cyan maintained his cold demeanor but explained awkwardly, "I may have gone a bit overboard."Meanwhile, Jennifer huddled in Louis's arms, shivered uncontrollably, her teeth chattering.Louis felt somewhat speechless but quickly continued running. Behind them, curses and shouts resounded as some couldn't avoid the icy ground and got their feet stuck.However, numerous long-range abilities were still aimed at them, but Louis's boundaries prevented all of them.A tightly sealed door appeared before them.The members of Cyan's team hadn't figured out how to break through the door when Ace suddenly took a deep breath. His foot slammed onto the ground so forcefully that it created a small crater. Then his body shot forward like an arrow from a bow, heading straight for the d
Matthew floated through the air and asked Louis a question like that.Louis looked at him, getting straight to the point, "Up to this point, I still can't activate the power you've passed on to me."Upon hearing this, Matthew seemed a bit discouraged, the atmosphere became somber, and finally, he suddenly said, "The conditions to activate it are really quite difficult."Louis pursed his lips slightly, finding Matthew's inherited power somewhat mysterious regarding usage conditions.Unlike others, he could control and manipulate them at will, as they were things he had learned. However, Matthew's was entirely different. Despite Matthew claiming that he had learned his inheritance, he still couldn't use it.Matthew's power was called "Justice." It would pass judgment on a certain event, person, or organization he aimed at. When the judgment reached a certain level and felt appropriate, Matthew's inherited power could enhance his strength to help him deal with his opponents.It was an
Louis looked towards Cause, and he, indeed, was an ideal military figure.Louis didn't say much more, just nodded and said, "Let's begin."Thirty minutes passed, and they had no idea how many traps lay in wait for them below.He looked at Cause and said, "You lead your team in controlling the skies; don't let anyone escape this mountain area."Cause nodded, and Louis turned to Cyan and Jennifer, saying, "Cyan, come with me as part of the vanguard team. Jennifer leads the assault team to other small bases of theirs underground. Ace, stay out here and keep an eye on the prison."Louis hadn't forgotten the madman's words of the second-in-command he had defeated.Ace furrowed his brow slightly, but seeing the determination in Louis's eyes, he didn't say anything more. He knew Louis's concerns were never unfounded, so he had to follow orders.At this point, almost all the Special Event Investigation Team members were present here. After Louis's assignments, they quickly formed into teams.
Louis remained calm and collected, taking a moment to steady his breathing before turning his gaze towards the man, his eyes cold and devoid of emotion. Though he couldn't see it, Louis was certain the leader was also looking at him.At that moment, the leader suddenly smiled, his voice mechanically altered, echoing through the vast space, "You've thoroughly disrupted my plans, and now I even have to find a new base."Louis casually remarked, "Judging by your tone, it doesn't seem like much of a challenge for you."The leader shook his head, still smiling, appearing like a benevolent old father forgiving his mischievous child. He replied, "No, it's quite challenging indeed. After all, building this place took quite some effort."Louis glanced at him but remained silent.The leader narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You're quite an uninteresting young man."Before Louis could respond, a tremor shook the surroundings, and cracks quickly appeared in the ceiling. A series of others f
Outside, the fate of the prison. A massive and unprecedented riot had erupted. Dangerous prisoners suddenly gained special powers, and it was clear they wouldn't stay put. They broke out of their cells, released all the prisoners, and went on a rampage, attacking the military personnel present. A tall man with long hair down to his shoulders held the head of a prison guard as he stood atop a pile of rubble. He raised his head to the sky and laughed loudly, marking his territory like a king. The head he held was not intact; the tongue had been cut out, the eyes gouged, leaving only two black, empty sockets oozing blood from those wounds, indeed a gruesome sight. He raised his spoils high and proclaimed, "I used to be the one who controlled us, and now I've finally silenced him, ha ha ha!" Immediately below, cheers and twisted laughter rang out. "Thud!" A strange sound suddenly interrupted the twisted laughter. Blood sprayed everywhere as the man who had been laughing maniacal
Liam was sent flying by the leader of a gang, and upon seeing Ace's situation, he couldn't help but quickly get up, wanting to rush over there, but he couldn't!The gangsters, with tremendous strength, leaped up to attack him, launching continuous blows that prevented him from assisting Ace. Although Ace was somewhat daring, at present, he was the main force here, and they couldn't afford to lose him!Liam clenched his teeth, taking the opportunity to touch the ground. His powers extended at a distance, and the ground beneath the man in black began to collapse.The man in black furrowed his brow slightly, gazing towards Liam.At this moment, Liam was also kicked in the jaw by another gangster, sent flying a few meters away, with fresh blood spilling from his mouth.The man in black sneered at their weakness.He stomped his foot, and the ground immediately split apart, releasing him from Liam's half-hearted grasp.Liam looked towards Ace, his eyes filled with desperation.Ace furrowed
Ace furrowed his brow, looking at the leader who had suddenly appeared before him. At this moment, the advantage was slowly tilting in their favor, but the leader's appearance alongside this strangely powerful girl was a significant variable.The leader also furrowed his brow; he knew he had to leave this place as soon as possible before being surrounded. He raised his hand, and a green light emanated from his hand. Ace could only hear him use his mechanical voice to say, "My most loyal disciples, I bestow upon you ultimate eternal power. Attack!"As soon as he finished speaking, those below immediately felt the difference, as an endless surge of energy coursed through their bodies, seemingly unaffected by their unique abilities, as if it wouldn't drain their life force no matter how much power they used.Excitement filled their eyes. Ace muttered, "This is not good."A bullet suddenly whizzed by, aimed directly at the leader. The leader quickly tilted his head, and the bullet tore
