Chapter 70: Purple Lv2

Under the incredulous gazes of the generals and Colonel Stryker, the ground was torn apart by the immense gravitational force, instantly destroying the military base below. The buildings on the surface, along with the rocks beneath, were all sucked into the terrifying black-blue hole!

The Sentinels hovering above Alex were no exception. First, the energy beams arrived, followed by the Sentinels closest to him, and then those further away.

During this time, the Sentinels furthest away noticed the anomaly and immediately tried to flee. However, no matter how much they changed their forms or used various mutant abilities, they could not escape the gravitational pull and were slowly dragged into the terrifying black-blue hole!

Moments later, a massive sphere appeared in the sky above the military base. The exposed Sentinels struggled desperately, transforming their bodies into ice, fire, or other materials. Yet, despite their constant transformations, they could not break free from the overwhelming gravitational force!

Against the force of gravity, one of the universe's four fundamental forces, even Sentinels empowered by multiple mutant abilities and enhanced by the Arc Reactor were powerless.

Upon witnessing this, the generals observing the battle via satellite could no longer remain calm. Their previous composure vanished, just as it had the first time they attempted to hunt the White-Haired Mutant.

Seeing the White-Haired Mutant walk out of a nuclear blast, their feelings experienced a similar drastic reversal!

The generals immediately began questioning Colonel Stryker, demanding to know if there were any measures in place to handle this situation. But unlike the previous instances, Colonel Stryker stood in front of the screen, his expression grim, unable to utter a word for a long time…

Seeing this, the faces of the generals turned pale. The wiser among them disconnected their communications and began evacuating the military base to find safety elsewhere.

The third operation against the White-Haired Mutant ended in absolute failure once again!

Massive amounts of material were drawn into the Lapse "Blue" and began converging at the center of the black-blue vortex!

In an instant, a large sphere composed of various materials formed in the sky, with Sentinels trapped inside, submerged beneath a chaotic mix of substances! Even though Alex stopped supplying energy, the massive sphere continued to attract everything around it, shrinking in size while its gravitational force grew stronger!

If Alex did not intervene, the extremely dense sphere created by the "Blue" could form a true black hole that might consume the Earth!

Through his Six Eyes, Alex observed the Sentinels trapped within the sphere, their bodies continuously changing forms yet failing to escape the gravitational pull. Under the immense force, their bodies were breaking apart. A look of curiosity appeared on Alex's face.

Indeed, these machines, the collaborative work of three geniuses, had surpassed the final form of the Sentinels from "Days of Future Past." But they were not those Sentinels, and he was no longer the mutant he once was.

Extending his right hand in a flicking motion, he prepared to release another attack. Even without using pre-formed hand seals, the power of Hollow Technique "Purple" might have decreased. However, after his Six Eyes and "Blue" reached level 4, its power was still far greater than when he faced the Destroyer Armor!

Repulsion and gravity intertwined, forming an imaginary mass: purple sphere, now several times larger than before, about the size of several people!

Naturally, its power had also increased several-fold!

The terrifying sphere shattered the space around it, instantly destroying the high-density sphere that was on the verge of becoming a black hole. It pierced through the desolate wasteland and left Earth's gravitational field, vanishing into the distance!

After releasing this powerful "Purple," a system prompt sounded in Alex's mind:

[Hollow Technique "Purple" Experience +1]

[Congratulations, your skill Holliw Technique "Purple" has leveled up!]

[Hollow Technique "Purple" Lv2 (1/300): Overlap the Lapse Cursed Technique "Blue" and the Cursed Technique Reversal "Vermillion" to form an imaginary mass, releasing an energy wave capable of cutting through space, with more control over the imaginary mass!]

With the upgrade of Hollow Technique "Purple," Alex's mind was flooded with new knowledge.

With the help of his Six Eyes, he quickly absorbed all the information, allowing him to release the Hollow Technique "Purple" once again.

Two small spheres gradually merged in his hand, forming a thumb-sized Purple.

However, unlike when it was at level 1, Alex felt he could manipulate the purple hypothetical sphere in more ways!

The sphere in his hand began to twist and eventually morphed into a slender shape, forming a small dagger that he grasped.

Looking at the imaginary dagger in his hand, Alex grew more excited about what higher levels of Hollow Technique "Purple" might bring. As the power of "Purple" increased at level 2, its control also improved significantly.

So what changes would level 3 bring?

Controlling the imaginary dagger so it wouldn't harm himself, Alex then threw it down.

The dagger instantly broke the sound barrier, plunging hundreds of meters into the ground!

During its descent, it hit a general attempting to escape through a secret passage, completely disintegrating his body!

"Next."

After dealing with the general at this military base, Alex swiftly flew to the next location!

And because the level of the "Blue" had increased, his speed also improved again, reaching Mach 100.

Although this speed might not match those with super-speed abilities, it was already faster than most superheroes!

Moreover, not only could Alex use the "Blue" to fold space, but he could also manipulate space with the Limitless Cursed Technique. Once the Portal Ability upgraded further, he would be able to reach any corner of the universe.

Combined with the incredibly fast reaction speed of his level 4 Six Eyes, even speedsters would find it hard to survive against him.

With the upgraded "Blue," the pace of his slaughter increased rapidly. In just a few hours, Alex had killed most of the generals.

Upon reaching the last military base, Alex was about to launch his imaginary sphere when a futuristic-looking aircraft appeared in front of him.

The plane stopped in front of him, and several mutants in yellow uniforms stepped out. It was the X-Men!

Professor X and the others disembarked from the Blackbird and focused their gaze on the floating, god-like figure of the White-Haired Mutant. Professor X was the first to speak to him:

"White-Haired Mutant, stop. Your actions today will disrupt the balance between mutants and humans. Are you trying to ignite World War III?"

Faced with Professor X's question, Alex did not respond. He ignored the Professor and instead stared curiously at Jean Grey behind him. Under his Six Eyes, she appeared far more imposing than visible to the naked eye!

A massive amount of energy radiated from her, like a giant phoenix perched on the ground!

This intrigued Alex. It was clear that Jean had merged with the Phoenix Force and could control its power, which now posed a slight threat to him.

But only a slight one. No matter how powerful the Phoenix Force was, what stood before him was just a small fragment of it!

Suddenly, he wondered if he could strip the Phoenix Force from Jean Grey and harness that power for himself!
