[6 More Reviews For A Extra Chapter!!]
(Unlocking Progress 74%)
Syd felt a bit disappointed.
"Will it be at 75% or 80% when I awaken a new ability?"
"I wonder what the next ability will be..."
As he lamented, time flew by quickly, and before long, evening arrived. Though his divinity had not yet reached level four, his Divine Word had advanced to level four first.
[Divine Word Experience +1]
[Ability: Divine Word (0/2000) Level 4]
As soon as the notification appeared, Syd's words became more profound, mysterious, and perfect—ever closer to the true speech of a god.
He even felt he could easily alter his voice and imitate the sounds of other beings.
Syd was quite satisfied with this ability, as it would make it much easier to disguise himself as the White-Clad Hero without awkwardly changing his voice, and no one would notice anything unusual.
After testing his voice, Syd uttered a single word, "Light."
The next moment, in harmony with his Divine Word, the dark, secluded corner he stood in suddenly shone brilliantly bright!
Darkness was pierced as dazzling white light filled the entire area, engulfing everything in sight.
Within a second, the light had spread over a hundred meters, covering numerous houses. If not for Syd's quick reaction to stop the light from spreading, who knew how far it would have reached.
In an instant, the hundred-meter radius was as though a flashbang had been set off. The brightness was blinding, even to those inside buildings.
"Ah, what's going on?!"
"Shit!"
Screams echoed alongside the sound of objects falling chaotically.
Clearly, in that brief moment, the sudden brightness caused discomfort, resulting in people dropping things and some even getting hurt.
As the light receded, many of those affected sighed in relief, and so did Syd as he quickly left the area.
In the distance, he could still hear some people cursing.
"Was that a flashbang? Damn it, who set it off?!"
After leaving the area, Syd couldn't help but marvel at how different the fourth level was—the effect of the Divine Word had risen drastically.
"It seems I should be careful with my words from now on, or else..."
Syd shook his head.
After further testing, he discovered that anything related to light he spoke of would inevitably come true, though the effect wasn't permanent.
"Maybe at level five, I'll have complete control?" Syd mused, feeling a bit troubled.
As he both worried and continued practicing his various abilities, time gradually passed, and soon it was the next morning.
On a deserted grassy field, a white figure stood in the sunlight.
At that moment, Syd's eyes were filled with anticipation.
After a night had passed, the force of faith had grown more and more, directly pushing his divinity to the threshold of leveling up.
The next second, the notification sounded.
[Divinity Experience +1]
[Ability: Divinity (0/2000) Level 4]
In an instant, Syd felt a mysterious force fill his entire body.
His flesh, blood, soul, and spirit...
In just a few moments, as the force filled his being, Syd felt every aspect of himself was enhanced.
His divine body became stronger, his soul more pure, his spirit more powerful...
The next moment, a red glow appeared in his hand—the glow of Chaos Magic.
Syd sensed that his Chaos Magic had become much stronger.
Raising his hand casually, a fist-sized rock nearby was instantly enveloped in a red glow.
The next second, with a boom, the rock turned into powder...
Syd fell into contemplation.
Although Chaos Magic was only at level four, he estimated that he could easily rip apart a non-Infinity-Stone Thanos now.
Even those Sentinel robots, even if they turned into metallic form, Syd guessed he could tear them apart or blast them to pieces.
"Not bad. Compared to before, when Chaos Magic had to be used in bursts to deal with the Sentinels, this is much better now..."
Even without altering reality, the Sentinel robots should be easy to handle.
After testing the strength of his various abilities for a bit, Syd shifted his focus to his most anticipated area—his flight speed.
Holding a stopwatch, the next moment, his figure disappeared from where he stood.
Boom! A terrifying sonic boom echoed.
In the blink of an eye, Syd appeared in the distance.
Looking at the data displayed on the stopwatch, and after a round of calculations, surprise appeared in his eyes.
At level three divinity, his flight speed barely reached 5.4 times the speed of sound. Now that his divinity had reached level four, his flight speed had increased to 7 times the speed of sound!
"Seven times the speed of sound, huh? This speed..."
Syd found it satisfactory.
Most importantly, if his divinity reached level five, his speed might surpass ten times the speed of sound.
If his Divine Light reached level five as well, his speed would likely double...
Expectation filled Syd's eyes.
Even at his current speed, unless observed from a great distance, no ordinary person could see him move when he was nearby.
To put it specifically, his current speed had already surpassed that of a regular bullet!
With that in mind, he continued channeling the light energy within himself, striving to push Divine Light to level five as soon as possible.
While channeling the energy, Syd casually changed his attire.
The fame of the White-Clad Hero was overwhelming, so he seized an opportunity to switch to Messiah's outfit.
By the time afternoon arrived.
As Syd was quietly moving, he suddenly spotted a screen in a shop playing some footage from a distance.
Hmm? Syd's gaze turned toward it, and he saw an old acquaintance.
There she was, dressed in a light pink dress, her face lightly made up—Irina was speaking.
"Hello, everyone! It's been a while. Today, Irina is bringing you some good news..."
Irina blinked playfully and said, "What exactly is it? Let me keep you in suspense; it'll be revealed soon..."
Watching Irina's broadcast on the screen, Syd's brows immediately furrowed.
In an instant, his gut told him that whatever this woman was saying, it wasn't good.
Or rather, it wasn't good for him.
Just as he thought that, the shopkeeper inside started cursing at Irina. At the same time, an unexpected scene unfolded.
A brawny man in military uniform, with a commanding presence, suddenly appeared five meters to Syd's right.
Syd immediately grew cautious.
He remembered clearly that no one had been there a moment ago!
This man seemed to have...
Teleported here? Just as he thought this, while staying on guard, something unexpected happened.
A force of spatial energy appeared! In the blink of an eye, Syd found himself transported away from his original location, now standing in a deserted wasteland.
Before he could observe his surroundings, a sense of danger engulfed him!

Syd's expression changed slightly.
Instinctively, he immediately used Spatial Transfer.
[Spatial Transfer Experience +1]
In an instant, his figure vanished from the spot and reappeared ten meters away.
He flashed again, using Spatial Transfer a second time.
Simultaneously, a sense of danger washed over him.
Boom!
A terrifying explosion occurred, and a wave of intense heat rolled over.
[Rebound Shield Experience +1]
[Rebound Shield Experience +1]...
"Is this a bomb?"
Looking at the approaching flames and heat, Syd instantly summoned four level-four Rebound Shields to protect himself.
After completing these defenses, the explosion engulfed him.
In a matter of moments, the shockwave spread over eight hundred meters, destroying everything in its path.
Plants and animals were obliterated, and several layers of earth were torn away.
While this scene unfolded, in a military base far from the site of the explosion...
A group of American military personnel, including some operators monitoring equipment, stared at the explosion on their screens with shining eyes.
General Luca praised a nearby soldier, saying, "Leonard, you did well."
The man being praised, dressed in a military uniform, tall and strong, with an aura of a seasoned soldier, was none other than the man who had appeared beside Syd earlier.
Apparently, right after using his teleportation ability to take Syd to the wasteland, Leonard had instantly teleported back.
Facing General Luca's praise, Leonard modestly responded with a few humble words.
Watching the explosion spread across several hundred meters on the screen, with Messiah engulfed in the explosion, Leonard felt both proud and confident that the target was dead.
With such a vast explosion, Messiah couldn't have escaped. Caught off guard and subjected to such a powerful blast, even an Omega-level mutant would be doomed!
The bomb's yield had also been meticulously calculated.
Far more powerful than the missile Messiah had withstood last time!
According to the calculations of the personnel, Messiah was definitely dead!
The value far exceeded his defensive limits!
"Disgusting mutant, Omega-level or not, you still end up dead by our technology."
"No matter how powerful you are, you're still flesh and blood. Let's see how you withstand this explosion..."
The dozens of soldiers present were all smiling, discussing amongst themselves, staring expectantly at the screen as if they had already seen Messiah's remains obliterated.
As several generals and officers discussed and observed, Irina, who had just started her broadcast and had previously left everyone in suspense, switched the footage to the explosion.
Looking at the hundreds of meters of explosion now on-screen, countless viewers watching the live broadcast showed expressions of shock and surprise.
"What is this?"
"An explosion?"
"What is Irina doing, showing this?"
As countless ordinary people and even some superheroes and villains were confused, Irina smiled and explained, "This explosion was orchestrated by the military."
"At the center of the explosion is the Omega-level mutant, Messiah!"
"With such a massive range, even Messiah, being an Omega-level mutant, must perish on the spot, hehe!"
Listening to Irina's sweet voice, countless people suddenly understood, then grew excited as they watched the explosion.
Could Messiah finally be dead?
Many who feared mutants hoped so.
...
Stark Tower.
An hour ago, having received Irina's live broadcast preview, Tony, who was originally just curious about what she was up to, watched the broadcast. His face changed instantly.
In that moment, he felt disdain, feeling ashamed of the military's actions.
What kind of despicable means did they use to deal with Messiah, just a child?
Watching the explosion spread over eight hundred meters, even Tony Stark wasn't sure if Messiah could survive.
Even for an Omega-level mutant, to endure such a terrifying explosion head-on...
Judging by the data from the last time Messiah withstood the missile...
Tony sighed inwardly.
At this moment, besides Tony, Captain America and his team, as well as Magneto and Professor X, were also watching Irina's broadcast.
Steve Rogers and the others had mixed feelings.
Magneto and Professor X, compared to them, were visibly more worried.
As the only two Omega-level mutants in the world, the strongest among mutants, they did not want Messiah to die.
Apart from the connection of being mutants and not wanting to lose one of their own, they also had personal feelings. They had a strange sense of fondness for Messiah.
Mystique Raven, Wolverine Logan, and others were also watching the broadcast, feeling anxious.
Could Messiah really...
...
Kamar-Taj.
After the incident involving the White-Clad Hero, Kaecilius and the other sorcerers had been closely monitoring the Omega-level mutant, and now their faces were filled with regret.
"Is that young man, who was also called an Omega-level mutant alongside the White-Clad Hero, going to die?"
Kaecilius and the others shook their heads.
It seemed that there were differences even among Omega-level mutants. Messiah and the White-Clad Hero were not the same—Messiah was weaker.
The White-Clad Hero, who had taken their Tesseract, seemed much stronger.
As they thought about it, the explosion's aftermath gradually dissipated, and the dust settled.
The scene at the center of the explosion slowly came into view.
Noticing this, the host Irina curled her bright red lips, smiling as she said, "The scene in front of you is the good news I have for you..."
But before she could finish, the scene revealed at the center of the explosion left her speechless. She stood there, mouth wide open, staring in disbelief at the image emerging from the explosion.
A large crater, several hundred meters wide, lay before them. Inside, everything had been destroyed, except for a single figure.
It was a figure clad in black, completely unscathed.
He floated quietly in the air, without any visible signs of injury—his clothes were not even slightly damaged.
Messiah had actually endured such a terrifying explosion?
And even his clothes were untouched?
"Ah!"
Irina screamed, unable to believe her eyes.
Not just her; in the mysterious military base, the dozens of officers who had been eagerly waiting for Messiah to be blown to pieces were all in disbelief.
"Impossible! How could Messiah withstand such a massive explosion?"
"Even an Omega-level mutant is still flesh and blood..."
