Chapter 2: Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue



[Limitless Technique lv1 (1/100): Interferes with matter at the atomic level, controls space, and objects approaching the user slow down more and more, never being able to touch the user.]

[Energy Absorption lv2 (1/300): Can absorb most forms of energy, with a general speed and storage capacity.]

When the fusion rate reached 5%, Energy Absorption also upgraded to level 2, and Alex immediately felt changes in his body.

Firstly, the speed of energy absorption increased, and his body could store more energy. Additionally, he gained a technique imprinted deep within his soul: the Limitless Technique!

Alex instantly understood how to use the Limitless Technique. However, due to the low fusion rate, he could only maintain it for 5 minutes, far from the passive, constant state Gojo Satoru enjoyed.

But his goal was merely to escape the prison, and with his current abilities, he had a chance of success.

There were still a few hours until dawn. To be safe, he decided to continue absorbing energy to further increase the fusion rate and awaken new abilities!

This would ensure nothing could go wrong.

Just then, a strange man's voice came from the side. Alex turned to see a middle-aged man quietly saying to him:

"Hey, kid over there, you're a mutant, right?"

Seeing Alex look behind himself, he noticed that due to the energy absorption, the electricity was visibly being absorbed by his fingers, with a faint glow where they touched. Although dim, it was noticeable if you paid attention.

Seeing Alex remain silent, the man immediately became arrogant:

"You disgusting mutant scum, you must have a way to get out of here, right!?

After all, you mutants have all kinds of bizarre powers. It's no surprise you have the ability to escape.

Listen up, kid, when you plan to escape, take me with you, or I'll tell the gang that you're a mutant. I'm sure they'd be very interested."

Seeing Alex still silent, the middle-aged man grew a bit impatient but continued in a low voice for the sake of escape:

"Damn mutant scum, did you hear me?"

Hearing the man's threat, Alex remained unmoved, only a barely perceptible smile forming at the corner of his mouth.

Due to government propaganda and a certain reason, ordinary people generally harbored malice towards mutants, considering them dirty scum.

But they forgot that mutants had the power to easily tear them apart.

Alex looked up, brushing aside his white hair to reveal his striking blue eyes, and flashed a brilliant smile.

"Sir, don't worry, I'll let you out right away!"

The middle-aged man finally smiled in satisfaction, "Smart choice!"

Stopping the electricity absorption, Alex walked over to the man, extending his hand through the iron bars. "Sir, please give me your hand. My ability is space-jumping, and I'll get you out of here immediately."

The middle-aged man instantly showed joy. As expected, this mutant was just a kid who would comply with a little threat.

He had already decided that once he escaped, he would immediately call the police to capture this mutant scum. Reporting a mutant would earn him a nice reward, enough to live comfortably for a while.

As for reporting the gang that had captured him, he wouldn't dare. They were ruthless criminals, and escaping from them was a priority, not provoking them further.

He didn't consider Alex a threat. If his mutant ability was truly dangerous, how could he have been caught by ordinary gangsters?

In his mind, Alex must have a power that could only be used once, followed by a long recovery period-no threat at all!

If Alex hadn't been transmigrated, the man might have been right. But now, Alex was entirely different, awakened with a system.

When their palms touched, an imperceptible electric current flowed into the man's body, rendering him immobile due to the intense stimulation.

Level 2 Energy Absorption had reached this level of capability, but Alex's goal wasn't to electrocute the man to death. People who frequently electrocute others know that the smell of burning flesh is a giveaway, easily noticed by others.

So, Alex used his stored energy to enhance his body, then grabbed the man's neck with his other hand and twisted sharply. With a faint crack, the man's neck snapped, and he died

instantly.

It was deep into the night, and the slight sound didn't attract any attention. Even if someone heard it, they'd likely think it was just someone cracking their joints.

Alex positioned the man as if he were sleeping, then sat back by the lamp and continued absorbing energy, as if nothing had happened.

The system notifications continued:

[Energy Points +1]

[Energy Points +1]

[Energy Points +1]

[Energy Absorption Experience +1]

[Energy Absorption Experience +1]

[Energy Absorption Experience +1]

...

Alex wasn't sure how much time had passed, but through the window, he could see the sky beginning to lighten. Meanwhile, he had been continuously absorbing energy, channeling it into his template, and he heard the system notification:

[Template Fusion Rate: 10%]Nôv(el)B\\jnn

[You have unlocked a new skill: Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue]

[Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue lv1 (1/100): Creates a powerful suction centered on "Blue,"

with output reaching negative infinity, resembling a small black hole.]

Alex's eyes lit up as various methods of using Cursed Technique Reversal: Blue emerged in his

mind.

At this moment, his system panel read:

[Name: Alex]

[Current Template: Gojo Satoru]

[Energy Absorption lv2 (67/300): Can absorb most forms of energy, with a general speed and

storage capacity.]

[Six Eyes lv1 (1/100): Provides 360-degree long-distance vision, the ability to see energy flow, and incredible dynamic vision, enabling precise energy manipulation.]

[Limitless Technique lv1 (1/100): Interferes with matter at the atomic level, controls space, and objects approaching the user slow down more and more, never being able to touch the

user.]

[Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue lv1 (1/100): Creates a powerful suction centered on "Blue," with output reaching negative infinity, resembling a small black hole.]

[Template Fusion Rate: 10%]

[Increase the template fusion rate to unlock new skills]

[Energy Points: 12]

[When the template fusion rate reaches 100%, you will obtain a new character template!]

After leveling up Energy Absorption to lv2, Alex felt a significant increase in the energy within his body. As his experience grew, the limit for storing energy within his body increased once

more.

He could now maintain the Limitless Technique continuously for at least 10 minutes and use Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue multiple times.

Feeling confident in his newfound strength, Alex was no longer in a hurry to escape. He wanted to give the gang here a 'surprise' and properly repay Jim.

Just then, the cell door creaked open, and several familiar gang members with sinister looks

entered the cell.
