MTS: Marvel and Beyond

Chapter 3: In Action



Today was the day of the gang's transaction. They took out the keys to the cells, opened each one, and dragged everyone out, preparing to transport them outside. Everyone understood what was about to happen, and despair set in. Some cried out in agony, some knelt and

begged, and others hurled threats.

The gang members remained indifferent to all these reactions. Those who cooperated were left alone, while those who didn't were beaten with electric batons.

Soon, the gang members reached Alex's cell, and among them was the Jim.

Seeing Alex looking at him, Jim gave him a sinister grin and made a throat-slitting gesture. But instead of seeing fear, Alex gave him a bright smile, which annoyed Jim greatly.

"Cockroach, get out! Today's your lucky day!" Jim sneered.

Alex calmly replied, "Yes, today is indeed a good day."

Hearing Alex talk back, Jim's face darkened. He walked up to Alex and whispered, "You probably don't know, but I've arranged with Dr. John for your organ removal surgery to be done without anesthesia. You'll die in pain and despair!"

Alex gave him a mysterious smile. "Maybe you won't get the chance to see that."

Enraged by the continued provocation, Jim wondered where this bastard got his courage. He decided to teach him a lesson. Even if it meant getting reprimanded by the boss, as long as he didn't kill him, the punishment wouldn't be too severe.

Jim twisted his fist and swung it fiercely at Alex's face. He had long been annoyed by that handsome face, and now, the calm expression on it made him even angrier.

The gang members behind Jim didn't stop him. They watched with interest, eager to see the pretty boy scream in despair.

But what happened next shocked them all.

Jim's fist stopped inches from Alex's face, unable to move closer. At first, they thought Jim was just playing around and teased him:

"Jim, stop fooling around. The transaction is about to start. If we waste time, the boss will have your skin!"

"Yeah, hurry up and hit that rat. I can't wait to hear him scream in pain!"

"No, I'm not..."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Jim stared in terror at the man before him. His originally dark brown eyes had somehow turned into a deep, azure blue, and his once-black hair had turned pure white overnight. Though the man was smiling at him, the cruel curve of his lips and the mocking glint in his eyes made it clear that all of this was his doing. What was happening?

Jim suddenly realized-could this kid be a mutant?

The gang members behind Jim sensed something was off from his reaction and began to scrutinize the situation more closely. They noticed the veins bulging on Jim's arm and his muscles twitching, indicating he was using all his strength. The closer Jim's hand got to the rat's face, the more it trembled, as if the space around it was severely distorted, bending light itself.

Something was wrong! They all realized-could that pretty boy actually be a mutant?

A creeping fear settled over them, especially when they saw the calm, indifferent smile on Alex's face. Instinctively, they all took a step back.

Seeing Jim struggle to get closer to him, Alex gave him an encouraging smile, "Come on, you can do it! Just a bit more effort and you can touch me!"

But as soon as he spoke, the smile vanished from Alex's face. Jim, overwhelmed by the fear of the unknown, was trying to turn and run!

There was no way Alex would let him escape. He still had a gift to deliver.

The energy within Alex surged, rapidly enhancing his physical abilities. In a movement too fast for the human eye to follow, he grabbed Jim's head and slammed it into the ground with tremendous force.

*Bang!*

The sound of Jim's skull hitting the ground was chilling. He lost consciousness immediately from the impact.

Alex didn't stop there. Using his enhanced strength, he stomped on Jim's limbs with brutal force. The crushing impact shattered flesh and bone, sending blood and tissue splattering and spreading across the ground.

Jim woke up from the intense pain as his right arm was crushed under Alex's foot, letting out a piercing scream and struggling desperately.

But how could he resist Alex? He could only watch with wide eyes as Alex crushed his limbs, turning him into a complete wreck.

Ignoring Jim, Alex considered the gift delivered, and that was enough for him, regardless of whether Jim was satisfied or not.

Seeing the terrifying man in the cell amid the bloodshed, the gang members snapped out of their shocked stupor under his icy gaze.

One of them immediately reacted, shouting loudly, "His ability must have significant limitations, otherwise how could Jim have caught him. Shoot at him, we can surely kill him!"

The others quickly followed suit, "Right! Shoot at him!"

These gang members, clearly seasoned and well-trained from numerous battles, quickly regained their composure and began firing their rifles at Alex in panic.

But what happened next filled them with despair. Bullets floated strangely in mid-air,

distorting unnaturally, unable to approach the terrifying man even the slightest.

It was as if the distance between them was not just a few inches but an insurmountable gap!

The Infinity

"How is this possible, why isn't it working?!"

"What kind of mutant ability does he have?!"

"If he possesses such power, why was he caught by Jim before?"

They could no longer maintain their composure, instinctively pulling their triggers and firing madly at Alex.

But none of these bullets could get anywhere near Alex, who even had the leisure to help Jim fend off the bullets.

Alex had no intention of letting this bastard die so easily; he wanted him to sink into despair

and pain!

Then, Alex turned his attention to the gang members who were shooting incessantly and the others who rushed to support them. With a smirk on his face, he made a mysterious gesture, relaxingly extending his hands forward, palms facing each other,

"Cursed Technique Lapse: 'Blue'!"

With a special flow of energy within him, a terrifying blue vortex swiftly formed in front of Alex. All bullets fired towards him were swallowed up by the vortex like a black hole!

After all the energy was gathered...

Boom!!!

The terrifying blue vortex burst forth, flying towards the front at lightning speed, sucking in everything in its path, be it flesh and blood or steel and concrete, leaving no trace behind!

Once everything settled down, all the gang members ahead had disappeared without a trace,

not even a piece of flesh remained!
