Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Nuke
Congratulations, your skill, Reverse Cursed Technique, has leveled up!
*Reverse Cursed Technique lv2 (107/300): Converts the negative energy of cursed energy into positive energy, with extremely potent healing effects!*
Congratulations, your skill, Technique Reversal: Red, has leveled up!
Technique Reversal: Red lv3 (19/1000): Generates repulsive force centered on Red. The minimum power is twice that of Blue, and its maximum output is unknown.
After the intense battle, both RCT and Red leveled up. Because Alex possessed infinity and his previous opponents couldn't inflict serious damage on his body. RCT had been slow to level up. However, during the battle with the Destroyer Armor, Alex had to use RCT repeatedly to heal the damage caused by the energy beams. This allowed the skill, which had already accumulated some experience, to finally level up, making significant progress towards level 3.
At level 2, RCT's healing effect on the body had greatly improved, significantly speeding up recovery. With the healing speed of RCT combined with the natural recovery from Energy Absorption, Alex's regeneration rate now rivaled that of Wolverine.However, at this stage, the RCT still couldn't be used on others. It seemed that once it reached level 3, it might become possible.
Thinking of this, Alex decided to practice the RCT more. After all, when Jane Foster arrived to deliver the Reality Stone, he would need the RCT to extract it. Moreover, Alex was eager to see what effects a high-level RCT could achieve. In the world of Jujutsu Kaisen, the greatest accomplishment with the RCT belonged to Shoko Ieiri, who could use it to heal others.
So, what kind of abilities would Alex possess if his RCT surpassed that of Shoko Ieiri and reached an even higher level? Immortality? Resurrection? Restoring matter to its original state? Or perhaps some other even more miraculous effects?
As for Reversal Technique: Red, its power had increased once again. With his palm facing up, Alex summoned cursed energy, and a basketball-sized black and red singularity appeared, floating steadily above his hand. He tossed the black and red singularity forward, and with a violent wind and a powerful tremor in the ground, a new trench, several meters wide, was created in the center of the already massive trench ahead.
The power of Red had multiplied several times again.
Looking at the trench left by Red, Alex smiled in satisfaction.
Besides the skill upgrades, there were other gains as well. The laser beams fired by the Destroyer Armor contained extremely high energy. After absorbing this energy, Alex gained a large number of energy points. When he invested all the energy points into his character template, its fusion rate increased from 60% to 67%.
If the Destroyer Armor weren't so cumbersome to carry around, difficult to control, and prone to attracting trouble from Odin, Alex would have considered using it to continuously absorb energy. However, even with Energy Absorption at level 4, the arc reactors had not been rendered obsolete. Alex calculated that, at his current rate of energy absorption, he would need about five arc reactors running simultaneously to meet his daily energy needs.
It seemed that obtaining the Infinity Stones needed to be prioritised.
SWOOSH!
Just as Alex was about to leave, a piercing roar suddenly came from a distance! Upon hearing this strange sound, Alex felt a sudden halt in his energy flow, but under the control of his Six Eyes, it quickly returned to normal.
His previously calm expression became joyous again. The seeds he had planted earlier were finally bearing fruit!
A massive missile was descending from the sky. Alex stood his ground, unmoving—a mere nuke was nothing to him. A kind-hearted person had delivered some energy for him again!
BOOOM!
In the next moment, a blinding light exploded, like the sun falling to earth, and endless light and heat engulfed everything around!
In a distant town, Thor and the others suddenly saw a mushroom cloud rising in the distance, and the massive shockwave was about to reach the town!
In this critical moment, Thor finally regained his power, summoned Mjolnir, and carried Jane Foster and several mortals to a safer distance, escaping the attack. The Warriors Three followed closely behind, and once they reached a safe area, they all looked back at the scene from afar.
Even Thor was amazed by the explosion caused by humanity's most powerful weapon.
"Why was Alex suddenly attacked with such a powerful weapon?"
Jane Foster explained:
"Alex is known as the White Mutant outside, and he's being officially hunted. I heard that the authorities had already drawn up plans against him. It seems this nuke must be their doing! There's no way Alex could survive being hit directly by a nuclear bomb..."
Thor stepped forward, saying, "I'm going to save him. Even if Alex is dead, I must retrieve his body!"
But just as Thor took a step forward, he suddenly stopped and looked at the rapidly shrinking, searing flames ahead, murmuring, "Oh, it looks like I won't need to intervene after all."
…
In a distant military base, through surveillance satellites, many generals could clearly see the situation in the desert.
After witnessing the White Mutant being directly hit by the nuke, they immediately began to cheer.
"At the center of a nuclear explosion, even that stain can't possibly survive!"
"The world's greatest threat has finally been eliminated! That mutant will become history!"
"Contact the media. We need to broadcast the news of the White Mutant's death far and wide! Let the world know that the military has killed the plague!"
While others were celebrating the successful elimination of Alex, only Colonel Stryker kept a close eye on the image of the mushroom cloud. Having dealt with mutants for a long time, and with a mutant son of his own, he knew that mutants could have unpredictable abilities. Especially a powerful mutant like the White Mutant—Stryker wouldn't be surprised if he emerged from the heart of a nuclear explosion unscathed!
Suddenly, the mushroom cloud in the image started to change. The flames and shockwaves, which had been rapidly expanding outward, visibly began to shrink, as if being sucked into a black hole, with all light and heat unable to escape!
The other generals saw this as well, and their smiles froze, staring in disbelief at what was unfolding before them.
"What's happening?"
"The energy from the nuclear explosion is being rapidly absorbed by something in the central area!"
"Wasn't his mutant ability supposed to be suppressed by the mutant suppression device? How is he still able to use it?"
"Oh, God, is he even a mutant?"
Moments later, all the energy from the nuclear explosion was completely absorbed. The blast area was left with nothing but a large cloud of dust; even the melted ground had cooled down.
Then, a blurry figure slowly walked out from the center of the explosion, stepping into a clear area visible to the surveillance satellites. He looked up and raised a middle finger to the sky.
