Screeeeee!

With murderous intent blazing in its tubular eyes, the Birdy Man screeched loudly, flapping its wings frantically in a desperate attempt to escape. Fear flashed in its gaze as it watched Maverick zeroing in on it with a reckless grin plastered on his face. But the confined space made escape nearly impossible.

Bam!

Like the force of a missile colliding with a wall, Maverick crashed into the mutant headfirst. The impact brought the Birdy Man down, slamming it into another metallic railing as both of them plummeted toward the ground with even greater velocity, ignoring the pain from their collision.

Anyone witnessing this would question whether Maverick was truly insane or just unbearably reckless. With his unparalleled control over his body, he could have used the momentum to stabilize himself or find a safer landing. Instead, he chose to hurl himself headfirst into the mutant, showing a blatant disregard for his own life.

And yet, Maverick didn’t care. He knew this was suici

    Retracting the tongue from the wall with a single thought, Maverick dropped to the ground, which wasn’t more than 2 meters. One couldn’t help but wonder how he was able to survive such a fall—right from the 41st floor straight to the first—with only a few dislocated bones and fractures instead of ending up dead. Well, that was because Maverick was no longer a “normal human” to begin with. A human who could smash a wall with a single punch, run as fast or faster than Usain Bolt without getting tired, was the true definition of superhuman.Hearing that sound, Maverick smirked slightly as he checked his notification.[Host has eliminated a peak Gamma 3 Mutant Human: Sky Leader. 10 evolution points have been given to the host.]Seeing this, Maverick shut the notification as he lay weakly on the floor. Turning around, he saw dead bodies with their stomachs torn open and already reeking. One of the corpses was even staring straight in his direction with dull, lifeless eyes as if questioning

    His tissue injuries had finally healed, enabling him to stand up, albeit with a staggering gait, as though his legs had been out of use for an eternity. His movements were shaky, but after standing for a few moments and shaking his legs slightly, Maverick eventually regained his stability.Turning his focus to his dislocated shoulder, Maverick gripped it firmly with his left hand and staggered toward the wall. With a deep grunt, he slammed his shoulder against the solid surface, his face twisting in pain as beads of sweat trickled down his brow. The dislocated bone was forced back into place with an audible pop.Pain was no stranger to him; he'd grown accustomed to it. However, that didn’t imply he couldn’t feel it—on the contrary, the agony he experienced was far more intense. The stronger his body became, the more sensitive it was to stimuli. This heightened sensitivity extended to even the lightest touch, faintest sound, or slightest scent, making his control over his body exceptio

    Anyway, it didn’t faze Maverick. On the contrary, he felt a sense of satisfaction with the current state of the world.Had the government retained their dominance, it would’ve spelled trouble for him. Rising to power under the shadow of such an established behemoth would have been next to impossible especially not one from America, a country that doesn't want to see anyone challenge their prestige. However, with the world now reduced to a level playing field, where everyone starts from scratch, building his own organization seemed far more feasible.His priorities were clear: ascend to Gamma 4 as quickly as possible and secure a location suitable for his future base. An abandoned military base, in particular, seemed like an ideal option as for a military base to be built, the location would have already been determined suitable for defense against enemies and it wouldn't need him to search longer for it.Casting a glance at the Birdy Man’s lifeless form, Maverick exhaled slowly, suppr

    Anyway, with his experiment done.Maverick felt like it's time to concentrate on the matter at hands, which is to finally extract the energy fluids.Lifting the mutant’s body onto a makeshift workstation—a broken table he’d propped against the wall—Maverick grunted under the weight. The flesh was heavier than what he lifted earlier, dense and pulsing with unnatural rigidity. He wiped his hands on his pants and moved towards his bathroom, the only part of the room spared from the earlier madness. Inside, he found the tray with 1 near syringe inside and immediately grabbed it before looking around, not finding what he was looking for he then walked towards the next room close to him which he already broke the wall separating them and finally found a empty plastic bottle which he grabbed before coming back towards the Mutant Human and staring at it.“So, Biolens,” he muttered, his voice low. “Where do I start? How do I extract energy fluids?”[Ding!][Analyzing...][The primary source o

    Surveying the entire 41st floor, which reeked of blood, with flesh and corpses scattered everywhere, Maverick realized staying there any longer was a terrible idea.Sleeping in such an environment would be unbearable, and the potent stench of blood clinging to this part of the building only worsened his concerns. Didn’t that mean if those fantails returned, this would be their next target?Moreover, it was about time he found Max and the others to share a portion of his ideas with them.Not actually all but a tiny overview about it, he wasn't stupid as to share everything when he didn't trust them to begin with.With this thought in mind, and after confirming the mutant human’s corpse was securely stored, he moved towards the stairs leading to the upper levels. Passing through the 42nd and 43rd floors, Maverick discovered both were desolate. But as he ascended to the 44th floor, he noticed thin threads tied together with empty cans dangling at strategic points. He instantly grasped th

    Silence!That was the next reaction of everyone in the room after hearing it, and for different reasons at that.For Divine, it was due to shock, which slowly turned into reverence. He couldn't imagine how Maverick was able to accomplish such a feat within just a single day. Didn't this mean he was the best?He would have to find a way to stick closer to Maverick in the future.Maybe his chances of survival would increase.Meanwhile, for Judy and Jennifer, it was for a completely different reason.They knew they hated Maverick and would always want to be the first to see him dead, but seeing how strong he was to be able to kill a Gamma 3 mutant human! Didn't that mean he was among the top strongest beings in the world currently?A psycho like him, if let loose into the world unruly, wouldn't that spell doom?Also, their chances of getting revenge on him were completely gone now.Meanwhile, as for Max, it was for three different reasons. Firstly, he couldn't control Maverick right now

    Maverick’s smirk resurfaced, exuding a unmatched confidence. “Our first step is to scout the Fort Hamilton base—evaluate its defensibility, ensure it’s sufficiently isolated to avoid unwanted attention, yet close enough to essential resources. Once that’s secured, everything else will naturally fall into place.” His gaze shifted to Divine. “According to my calculations, the distance to the base is approximately seven miles, which converts to about 11.26 kilometers. So, if anyone has concerns or questions, now is the time to voice them. Let’s resolve any internal disputes or uncertainties before we step out. Divine, during the journey, I’ll require your assistance with a few matters.”Divine straightened his posture, his initial apprehension eclipsed by a surge of determination. “Yes, sir! I’ll do my best.”Who would have expected for the calm, quiet, introvert and shy Divine to suddenly turn into a fanboy?Was he someone who easily summit to those stronger?What a strange taste.Heari

    Meanwhile, as Maverick prepared to retire for the night, Max, Judy, Jennifer, and Divine convened in another room, each engrossed in their own thoughts as they debated the weighty decision before them.They couldn't easily agree to what Maverick said and felt like it was better to hear each other's opinions.“What do you all think? Should we follow him out of here or stay?” Max asked, his tone firm but laced with concern. Sitting on a rickety chair, his hands clasped tightly, he observed the others, each lost in deep contemplation.“Of course we should follow him,” Divine was the first to respond, his voice brimming with conviction. “From what I’ve observed, he’s either a special forces operative or someone with the tactical acumen of a highly trained dictator—Hitler, perhaps. This man clearly possesses extensive combat experience, which is evident in how swiftly he’s been leveling up. If we stick with him, wouldn’t it stand to reason that he might train us as well? After all, he can’

    The heavy boots of the group echoed against the cracked marble floors as they descended the final steps of the skyscraper, ignoring the bodies around them, moving from the 44th floor down to the ruined streets of New York. The air outside was thick with a yellowish fog, swirling like ghostly tendrils with each wind through the husk remains of the city.Meanwhile, each of them was clad in a tactical gas mask, the glass lenses reflecting the dim sun filtering through the overcast sky. Their black bulletproof vests fit snugly over their torsos, rifles slung over their hands, pistols holstered at their sides, military bags strapped tight on their back, and jackknives secured for quick access.Maverick killed over 17 of the military members and was able to take all their weapons and grenades so knowing fully well he only have five stronger members, actually, six since he was able to discover Sakura whom after discovering that her members were dead didn't have any hesitation to join his gro

    "Are these all the people who want to leave with us?" Maverick asked, his eyes sweeping over the seven standing before him—a young woman and a man who seemed like lovers or relatives, a middle-aged man, three young women, and two other men.It was a decent number. Maverick didn’t want to take on too much baggage.His gaze shifted to the fourteen people who had chosen to stay behind. Without a word, he looked at Max and gave a small nod before stepping back.Understanding Maverick’s unspoken command—letting him speak since the group feared Maverick rather than respected him—Max stepped forward, cleared his throat, and addressed the crowd.“We’re leaving, but we’re not taking much of the food. It’s still where it was, and we even unlocked the door. You’ll have to decide how to split it amongst yourselves."But before we go, this is my final question—are you sure you don’t want to come with us? You’re safe for now, but no one knows what kinds of beasts will attack in the future. This dec

    1st POV:I remember the morning so clearly, as if it happened just moments ago. I was in the driver’s seat, hands gripping the steering wheel, humming a soft tune as my boys sat in the backseat, arguing over which cartoon was better. I told them to quiet down, that I had surgery later today and needed a clear head. They groaned in unison, calling me boring. I remember smiling, watching them through the rearview mirror—two little sparks of life, my entire world.Then, the sky erupted.A blinding light swallowed the road ahead, a wave of heat tearing through the world like an angry god had decided to erase us. The ground trembled, glass shattered, and the sound—God, the sound—was unlike anything I had ever heard. My ears rang as metal twisted and screeched. The car flipped. My body slammed against the seatbelt. Darkness consumed me.When I woke up, I was on the ground, dust and smoke filling my lungs. My head pounded, my vision blurred, but through it all, I could hear my boys crying. M

So far, he hadn’t encountered a threat capable of pushing him to the brink of death, which was why he hadn’t used his energy points to upgrade any of his stats yet. However, due to activating Armor Skin and Akuma no Shita, he had already expended about five energy points in total.“Biolens, how come my vitality is at

  • Chapter 84: Dorian & Killer Shot: A Bitter Meeting

    While Maverick lay unconscious on the ground inside the underground lab side, Dorian who Maverick thought will die the moment he stepped out staggered through the ruined cityscape, his left arm clutching his bleeding side. The air was thick with radiation, making his breaths feel like he was inhaling fire due to how weak he currently was. Burnt-out cars lined the cracked road, their husks melted and twisted, remnants of the world before the apocalypse. GrrrrrrrrrrThe occasional zombie groaned echoes in in the distance, dragging itself through the rubble, sniffing for the scent of flesh to devour.One of them—a shriveled, half-melted thing—lunged at Dorian with a sickening hiss. Seeing this, a glint flash through Dorian's eyes as a knife flashed, slicing through its throat. It gurgled, collapsing, only for another to crawl out from under a wrecked truck. Dorian didn’t waste time. He stomped on its skull, twisting his boot until the head caved in like rotten fruit.“Fucking pesky anim

  • Chapter 83: Maverick injecting the nanocells

    Maverick thought inwardly, imagining how the system will sound if he open it logically.With a sharp click, the latches disengaged.Maverick barely had time to react before an icy fog erupted from the opening seam, spilling out in thick waves. Instinctively —he shoved himself backward, one hand reaching for his gun as he eyed the mist warily fearing it will be a poisonous fog. His breath slowed down visibly in the sudden temperature drop, the frost creeping over the edges of the case.For a tense moment, nothing happened.Then, as quickly as it had appeared, the fog began to dissipate, revealing the contents inside.The interior of the case was pristine white, lined with soft, impact-absorbing foam that molded around a single object at its center—a sealed tube, roughly eight inches tall and four inches wide. The material was reinforced glass, its surface covered in a thin layer of condensation.Inside the tube, a shimmering, light-blue liquid sloshed gently, moving almost unnaturally,

    “Thanks, Captain, for launching me across the place to take the briefcase. Now, I guess this is where we say goodbye, and one of us departs to the realm of the dead? No?”Maverick’s words hung in the air, but Dorian wasn’t listening. Not really. His breathing was ragged, his fists clenched so tightly his knuckles cracked. His eyes burned—not just from the flames licking at his skin but from the seething fury that boiled beneath the surface."You think this is over?" Dorian growled, blood dripping from his clenched teeth. "You think you've won?"Maverick tilted his head, unimpressed. "I mean… yeah? I’ve got the briefcase, you’re bleeding like a gutted pig from maybe seemingly over using of your flame power, and you’re about to die from my gun. Pretty clear-cut, don’t you think?"Dorian ignored him. "You will regret this. Whatever’s in that briefcase—it won’t save you, rather it will bring more chaos to your life. You don’t know who you’re messing with. The moment you step outside with

  • Chapter 81: Thanks, Captain

    Maverick exhaled, rolling his shoulders as he eyed Dorian with that same indifferent gaze—like a man sizing up a particularly unimpressive meal. Dorian, on the other hand, was all heat and fire, his smirk thinning as he took a slow step forward, flames licking at his knuckles."You look tense, Captain," Maverick mused, dodging a jab without even looking. "Maybe it’s the stress of command. Maybe it’s the unresolved childhood trauma. Or maybe it’s just because you're used to throwing punches at people who can’t hit back."Dorian’s eye twitched, but he didn't respond. He knew Maverick was just trying to get under his nerves which he wouldn't allow.Another flaming fist cut through the air. Maverick leaned back, dodging by mere inches, his movements infuriatingly lazy."You always this sloppy?" Maverick muttered. "I mean, for someone who calls himself a captain, you swing like an amateur. Who trained you? Drunk chimps? I bet if you have a child, the child will be much slower."Dorian grow

  • Chapter 80: Breaking his words (Warrior VS Soldier)

    Technically, for the Captain to be able to ignite fire using his hands or body is something no one will ever believe in the past era, after all, humans, infact, living things weren't engineered to do such thing but here he is with fire burning from his arms and legs. For such a thing to happen, it begins with a shift deep within his cellular structure, a silent, invisible transformation. His body had developed an extraordinary ability to absorb and harness radiation—particularly, high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, like gamma rays the moment he absorbed a certain fire related beast core. This wasn't just a fluke mutation; it was the result of an intricate biological adaptation. The cells, rather than breaking down under the stress of radiation exposure, began to store the energy in a specialized organelle, a modified version of mitochondria that was now a fusion of bio-organic material and quantum-activated nanomatter, main reason he doesn't care about wearing mask. As these
