Number Five was enveloped in red energy, trying to resist the disintegration caused by the light.
To his credit, it did help somewhat; the disintegration slowed down a bit. However, the effect was minimal.
As the red energy shielding him was being broken down, his body began to come into contact with the light, causing his flesh to disintegrate into particles. Simultaneously, his rapid healing tried to counteract this effect, creating a brief stalemate.
Unfortunately for him, the disintegration outpaced his healing. The balance tilted towards destruction.
Number Five stared in disbelief at the boy in the distance.
Massive amounts of energy surged around Syd, causing his black clothes to flutter dramatically, giving him an ethereal appearance as if he could take flight at any moment.
An aura of terror and light emanated from him, seemingly capable of warding off anyone attempting to approach.
Number Five struggled to extend his right hand, stepping towards the boy in a bid to stop him.
But under the enveloping light, all his efforts were in vain.
His flesh began to vanish, exposing his white bones...
On the other side, Number One fared no better, if not worse.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Despite his rocky, metallic body being incredibly resilient, it too was unwaveringly disintegrating. In a short span, most of it had vanished, revealing large areas of bone. Yellow blood flowed, and his still-beating heart could be seen faintly.
With a groan of anger and unwillingness, his entire body collapsed to the ground.
Bang.
A few seconds later, his massive frame also turned into particles.
Number Five extended his skeletal right hand, trying to grasp something, but his movement froze in place.
As he fell to the ground, his body rapidly disintegrated.
At that moment, everything around them vanished...
The light gradually dimmed, and the black robes around Syd's body settled down.
When everything calmed, the site was eerily silent, and nothing remained where those people had been.
Silent, terrifying!
Syd glanced at the completely vanished people and felt the depletion of light energy within him, making him somewhat helpless.
The power of Sunshine was immense, but the consumption was equally exaggerated. Just one use, and his light energy was nearly exhausted.
Luckily, the sunlight above quickly restored his light energy; otherwise, he wouldn't know what to do next.
Apart from the issue of insufficient light energy, he noticed another problem with using Sunshine this time.
Number Five's red energy could slightly block the power of Sunshine.
And his healing ability delayed the disintegration significantly...
Number One also disintegrated slower than ordinary people when his metallic body was targeted.
"It seems Sunshine needs to be improved..." Syd thought, shaking his head.
Although Sunshine had the essence of an Omega-level ability, it was only at level two, so its strength was somewhat lacking.
For it to have reached this level of power was already impressive.
If it were at level five, those people wouldn't last a second before turning into particles and vanishing into thin air!
Syd glanced at the experience bar for Sunshine, looking forward to its performance at level three.
At that moment, Venom suddenly emerged from his right hand.
"Syd, you... you..."
Venom's small head, full of teeth, gaped wide as if it could swallow a basketball.
He couldn't believe what he had just seen.
The boy before him seemed god-like...
"Don't talk," Syd said, not paying attention to Venom for now, and instead scanned the sky. During the use of Sunshine, he had sensed something in the sky being obliterated by the light. Could it be... drones?
Syd frowned and, sensing the slightly recovered energy within him, began searching the area.
Ten minutes later, he reached the rooftop of an abandoned building.
Seeing the uncollected equipment on the ground, Syd frowned deeply.
"Is anyone else here..."
Standing on the rooftop, he scanned the surroundings but found no suspicious individuals.
"It seems they ran away."
He turned to Venom. "Venom, can you sense anyone suspicious nearby?"
Venom shook his head.
"Forget it..." Syd frowned and then relaxed.
It seemed those people couldn't be found. Searching wasn't his strength; instead of wasting
time, he should focus on improving Sunshine's level and unlocking progress.
If Sunshine's level increased and the unlocking progress reached 100%, he would have more confidence even in the face of danger.
Syd turned and left the abandoned building.
As he walked, he pondered, "Although I didn't deal with everyone, it was still a relief."
Thinking of the detestable Captain George and Captain Kenny, he smiled slightly.
"Soon, there will be that experimental base..."
Syd's eyes gleamed with determination.
He hadn't forgotten who the real mastermind behind the constant hunts was. If he had
enough power, he would have destroyed it already!
As he was lost in thought, Venom couldn't hold back any longer.
Recalling the recent events, he still felt a surge of shock.
What kind of power was that?
Unbelievable!
It was like the power of a god!
Terrifying!
Looking at Syd, he felt that his host seemed shrouded in mystery, filled with an aura of the
unknown.
Suddenly, Venom remembered something and said, "Syd, you told me a few days ago that the sunshine distortion was an illusion..."
He also remembered teasing Syd recently, saying that the light emanating from him made
him look like a light bulb.
It turns out it wasn't a light bulb but such a terrifying power?
Venom was stunned.
Facing Number One and Number Five initially, even he felt despair, thinking it was over. But
unexpectedly...
The moment the light enveloped everything, he felt suffocated.
That power, capable of destroying everything, made him feel like he was truly seeing a god.
Casually obliterating everything, like a deity!
The more he thought about it, the more shocked he felt.
"It was your illusion..."
Seeing Venom's naïve little head, Syd casually responded.
As they conversed, about a kilometer away, three people were running frantically.
"Pant... pant..."
Warden Marko ran desperately.
At this moment, he covered his mouth with his hand, his eyes filled with terror, not daring to
stop.
The other two soldiers were in similar states, their eyes filled with fear, their minds in chaos,
nearly driven insane.
They couldn't believe what they had just seen.
