[Sunlight Experience +1]
At this moment, Syd felt as if he could manipulate the sunlight overhead, gathering it together!
The gentle golden sunlight shone down on Carlpana and the others, engulfing everything!
The moment the sunlight, carrying a special power, hit them, screams erupted continuously.
Kirill and the others saw that the five people enveloped in sunlight, whether it was Carlpana or the other four men, began to disintegrate everything on them, whether it was flesh or clothing!
Everything turned into particles, which then dispersed again, returning to nothingness!
"This power…"
Carlpana, who could maintain a part of her consciousness, stared with her disintegrating eyeballs, blankly watching the indifferent young man not far away.
"You... you're not a Class 2 mutant?"
She murmured.
"Omega?"
The legendary pinnacle of mutants, signifying humanity's ultimate threat, possessing the power that humans truly fear...
The name surfaced in her mind, she opened her mouth, unwilling to say something, but before she could speak again, her entire being vanished into the dazzling sunlight!
The other four, faces full of horror, whether it was Hiro or Stefan, felt incredible.
What kind of power is this?
This Kevin, wasn't he a Class 2 mutant? Now, this power seems far beyond what Carlpana could comprehend!
Omega mutant?
How could such mutants be here?!
"We were so arrogant in front of a mutant of this caliber?"
And the others were full of fear.
It turns out that it's them who would die with just a gesture...
Why not reveal his identity earlier, if he had, they wouldn't have been so arrogant!
Why...
In the utmost reluctance and fear, they too followed suit, instantly turning into particles and returning to nothingness...
"Ultimate Threat?"
Hearing Carlpana's last words, Kirill and the two nearby, confusion flashed in their eyes.
Although they did not understand the term, they felt it was profoundly impressive.
Was Syd in possession of such a terrifying power?
They wondered, confused.
However, there was no longer any doubt, what they witnessed had already shocked them.
As the sunlight faded, what appeared before their eyes was a ground missing a thick layer!
As if it had been erased, along with those five people, as if they had never existed!
Such a terrifying power!
At this moment, their hearts were both shocked and fearful, looking at the young man not far away, they collectively took a step back.
They were afraid, and unsure, wondering if getting too close might cause them to disappear as well, or if the other's mutant ability went out of control...
So, at this moment, even though they didn't want to think this way, they couldn't help but feel fear and repulsion towards the young man.
If humans started ostracizing mutants, then they would ostracize Syd...
An outlier among outliers, special among the special...
Possessing such a power, they felt fear.
At this point, Syd was not paying attention to them but was feeling his own body.
Feeling the light energy within him nearly depleted, he couldn't help but feel helpless.
It was just half a room's area, and yet it had consumed all the energy in his body?
Moreover, this was with the assistance of sunlight, if it were at night...
"Enhancing the energy within me is a long way to go!"
Syd shook his head.
Ignoring the huge energy consumption, the power of Sunlight All Around truly shocked him. (For the ones that want to see how it looks like search Marokare, that's the OG name of the attack)
The essence of this ability was atomic disintegration?!
And then continuing to disintegrate until everything was reduced to nothingness!
One could say this ability directly disrupted the balance because it seemed to permanently erase a portion of matter, exceeding common sense!
Syd knew, this ability indeed could be classified as Omega-level power!
He stretched out his right hand, the slightly recovered light energy within him was soon exhausted, then a streak of light emerged from his hand!
Perhaps due to the nature of the light energy, this light carried a golden hue, reminiscent of sunlight!
"Indeed, even without fully deploying Sunlight All Around, I can still use some of its power!"
This light indeed carried the power to reduce everything to nothingness!
He had felt a slight change in his body before, he was not mistaken.
"Perhaps there has been a change in the genes inside me?"
With this guess, Syd looked at the light that disappeared in an instant, and smiled wryly.
With the current thirsty state inside his body, thinking about deploying Sunlight All Around without the aid of sunlight, he should first find a way to increase his internal energy.
Speaking of energy, with the emergence of Sunlight All Around, there was also a bit more energy inside him, but it was barely better than nothing.
As he pondered, Kirill hesitated for a while before daring to speak to him.
"Are you alright?" Kirill's voice faintly carried a hint of fear.
Syd shook his head, indicating he was fine.
The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense, Kirill and the others felt a bit awkward, wanting to change the mood, but were unable to.
Even Heidi, at this moment, felt fear towards the power possessed by the young man in front of her, naturally, it was impossible for them to return to their previous attitude.
After a while, Kirill hesitantly asked, "Is that your mutant ability?"
Syd thought for a moment, then nodded.
The three of them inhaled sharply.
"That... that's too terrifying, isn't it?"
And...
"Is this your fourth ability?"
Kirill inhaled a breath of cold air, looking at Syd as if he was a freak.
Heidi and Mark felt the same, both shocked and envious.
Then, Kirill thought of something and said anxiously, "Hey man, I think we need to leave!"
"When you just deployed that ability, it was like a golden searchlight was shining on us, if we don't leave now..."
Kirill gestured exaggeratedly.
Syd knew, the commotion was indeed a bit much.
When Sunlight All Around was deployed, it wasn't as calm as it seemed, the external sunlight focused together, making this area incredibly bright, while other places even dimmed a bit.
It was like signaling to others that there was a problem here, looking very conspicuous!
The group quickly gathered their belongings and evacuated the area.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before footsteps and voices approached this place, seemingly people coming to investigate.
On the way.
Mark hesitated for a moment, then said, "Syd, you just killed those people from the underground organization, aren't you afraid of trouble?"
"I heard they are numerous and their leader is a very powerful mutant..."
Syd shook his head, indicating he wasn't concerned.
He truly didn't care, having already offended America's department, now offending another underground organization didn't seem like a big deal.
As the saying goes, the more lice, the less itch, he would worry about it when people from the underground organization came looking.
Thinking this, Syd couldn't help but think of that research base and the people hunting him.
Compared to before, he now had a bit more confidence.
When they reached a crossroads, Syd suddenly stopped, "This is where we part ways."
"What?"
The three were initially startled, opened their mouths, but ultimately said nothing, nodding in agreement one after another.
Whether it was Syd or them, after the recent events, they could no longer go back to how it was at the beginning.
After bidding each other to take care, the three watched the mysterious young man's figure walk away.
"Alright, stop looking, what, can't bear to part?"
Heidi slapped Kirill's shoulder, her face playful.
"No, I was thinking, what is the Ultimate Threat?"
Heidi and the others were also startled, recalling Carlpana's last words.
"We'll find out when we ask around," Mark laughed.
Heidi agreed.
"Yes, we'll ask others when the time comes," Kirill nodded, smiling.
As they went their separate ways, the abnormal sunlight event in this area was also posted online, sparking a discussion.
(End of chapter)
The internet was abuzz with discussions.
"What's this?"
"My God, what's happened to the sunlight in this place, why does it look so strange?"
"Is this an alien invasion or is a military base testing new weapons?"
"Could it be a mutant's superpower?"
"No way, that's sunlight. Could a mutant really control that?"
Netizens were chattering, making all sorts of wild guesses.
...
After parting with Kirill and the others, Syd walked alone through a secluded alley, coughing a few times into his hand.
While looking for a new place to stay, he took the opportunity to practice various abilities.
[Black Particle Experience +1]
[Spatial Transfer Experience +1]
[Rebound Shield Experience +1]
[Rebound Shield Experience +1]...
After a while, he opened his panel with a thought.
[Name: Syd Castell]
[Age: 16 (Remaining Lifespan: 36 days)]
[Mutant Abilities: Mimicry, Energy Absorption]
[Current Mimic: Orochi (Title: Sun God, Will of the Earth)]
(Unlock Progress 79%)
[Abilities: Spatial Transfer (39/500) Level 2
Black Particles (34/500) Level 2
Rebound Shield (7/500) Level 2
Divine Finger (3/500) Level 2
Sunlight All Around (1/100) Level 1
Soul Extraction (0/100) Level 1
Spiritual Light Column (0/100) Level 1 (Unlocked)]
[Energy Points: 413]
Seeing his estimated remaining lifespan, Syd shook his head and sighed softly.
Facing a body full of ailments, even his current light energy seemed somewhat inadequate, or perhaps not powerful enough.
His first thought was about enhancing the light energy within him.
His gaze swept over the panel, focusing on the Level 2 abilities, his brow furrowing slightly.
Leveling up from 2 to 3 took too long, it might be better to upgrade the remaining Level 1 abilities to Level 2 first.
Having sufficient energy inside would also allow him to truly harness the power of Sunlight All Around.
Although Sunlight All Around was only at Level 1, Syd felt that he hadn't reached its limit when he used it before.
The lack of energy in his body prevented it from being fully unleashed!
If he had enough energy, Sunlight All Around might be several times stronger than before!
The problem again came back to the energy within him...
Syd glanced at Spiritual Light Column and Soul Extraction.
Spiritual Light Column could be practiced in a secluded place, but as for Soul Extraction.
Syd stroked his chin, quickly coming up with a method.
Humans shouldn't be used lightly for practice, but what about animals?
Just buy a small animal, then use Soul Extraction in and out, thus, he could complete the upgrade for Soul Extraction!
However...
"It seems I don't even have the money to buy a hamster," Syd mused, somewhat troubled.
But he didn't stay troubled for long, quickly thinking of a solution.
Half an hour later, he emerged from a dark alley, his hand now holding over five hundred dollars.
Having just performed a robbery for the sake of charity, Syd smiled, praising, "Thank God for the welfare money from America, today is another beautiful day!"
Free America, ah, happy every day!
With the money, Syd, wearing a hat and mask, ran to the market and bought a red-eyed white rabbit.
Finding a secluded, unoccupied place, Syd set the docile rabbit down on the ground, then extended his right hand.
"Soul Extraction!"
[Soul Extraction Experience +1]
His palm reached towards the rabbit, and then a purple-white glow appeared, pulling a purple-white orb of light from within the rabbit!
The moment the purple-white orb was extracted, the rabbit's eyes immediately became dull, like a spiritless puppet.
Syd looked at the orb in his hand with astonishment.
The outer layer of the orb was light purple, while the inside was blazing white!
And within the white orb, a ghostly rabbit appeared!
"Is this the soul?"
Syd's eyes widened in surprise, then he studied the rabbit's soul for a moment.
He discovered not only was the soul ethereal and transparent, its eyes were dull, appearing to lack much intelligence.
"I wonder if human souls are any different?" Syd pondered.
Looking at the orb before him, he felt he could easily crush this energy orb.
But then, the rabbit's soul would probably be annihilated as well...
Syd tried stuffing the rabbit's soul back into its body, a flash of purple light, and the rabbit's soul returned to its body.
Then, he began the cruel process of extracting and reinserting.

[Soul Extraction Experience +1]
[Ability: Soul Extraction (77/100) Level 1]
When night fell and there was no sunlight to replenish his energy, Syd reluctantly lowered his hand.
By then, the little white rabbit was completely dazed, seemingly broken.
"Looks like I'll have to wait until tomorrow to level up."
After sighing, he picked up the rabbit and headed for the shelter he had found.
Along the way, he glanced at the remaining 400+ energy points and subconsciously looked at the unlock progress.
"I wonder what the next ability to awaken will be..."
"Levitation Flight maybe?"
Thinking of flying, he couldn't help but think of Superman and his fellow countrymen.
Walking slowly and all, it really wasn't as convenient as flying!
Moreover, the momentum brought by flying was not comparable to standing on the ground.
Syd was somewhat expectant.
Then, he allocated all the remaining energy points to the unlock progress.
Unfortunately...
"No change?"
Looking at the stubborn, still 79% data, Syd frowned slightly.
"Never mind, we'll see tomorrow."
He randomly picked a cheap hotel and checked in with the little white rabbit.
Day and night.
[Photon Energy +1]
[Photon Energy +1]
While basking in the sunlight in the room, Syd continued to reach for the little white rabbit.
[Soul Extraction Experience +1]
[Soul Extraction Experience +1]
After a while, a notification sounded.
[Ability: Soul Extraction (0/500) Level 2]
Feeling a significant increase in energy within him, Syd's sense of security greatly improved.
Now, with the energy inside him, he could use a Level 1 ability perhaps over seventy times, and even a Level 2 ability around thirty times.
"Just one more left, I should be able to enhance it today too."
Syd's gaze moved to the Spiritual Light Column.
He checked out of the hotel and headed for the secluded spot he had found before.
Just as he was halfway there, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and he glanced furtively at some uniformed police officers who were questioning pedestrians on the street.
They all held a photo, which upon closer inspection, seemed familiar.
"Hello sir, have you seen..."
Hearing the distant voices, Syd's expression changed, he lowered his hat and left the area silently.
"So they've figured out I'm nearby..."
Arriving at his previous spot, Syd felt somewhat heavy-hearted.
If those guys found him, a battle would likely be unavoidable, but he wasn't fully prepared yet.
