Chapter 433

Su Quan kept his psychic isolation on and grabbed Anna's hand. Anna was already a bit nervous because of his somewhat 'sleazy' reaction earlier, and now that her hand was suddenly grabbed, she subconsciously wanted to break free and retreat.

But her good feelings for Su Quan and the trust built up during this time made her stop.

"What are you doing?!"

Su Quan looked at her and asked: "Do you feel anything?"

This, this question—it's just grabbing a hand, should I feel anything?

Anna shook her head with a strange expression.

Su Quan turned off his psychic isolation, using no abilities at all.

In an instant, his life force drained rapidly, and his complexion turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Ah…" Anna screamed in shock and hurriedly threw Su Quan's hand away.

Immediately afterward, Su Quan's complexion quickly returned to normal.

"Good grief, your speed and intensity of absorbing life force are much stronger than Jia Ying's!" Su Quan couldn't help but exclaim.

In just a few seconds, at least a third of his life force had been sucked away; in other words, without his healing ability, his life force wouldn't even last long enough to send a 60-second voice message!

One must know that his life force is different from that of ordinary humans; he had stacked the super life force of countless Asgardians like Thor and Loki, as well as the life force of Wonder Woman and the Amazons.

Under normal circumstances, there was absolutely no problem with him living for tens of thousands of years!

But tens of thousands of years of life force only lasted a few seconds in Anna's hands; from this, one can see how overbearing Anna's ability is!

Of course, life force actually had no meaning to Su Quan anymore; with his healing ability, his life force was almost infinite, so Su Quan had already recovered by this time.

But Anna was different!

Su Quan looked at the panicked Anna and found that blood was uncontrollably gushing out of her nose, the corners of her eyes, and her ears.

Is this—her life force overflowing because it's too abundant?

That's right; having absorbed tens of thousands of years of life force all at once, 'too much of a good thing' couldn't even describe her current state!

She is a mutant, and the life force absorbed through her ability can enhance herself, so it was just bleeding from the seven orifices; if this were an ordinary person, they would probably have dropped dead on the spot.

"What happened? I, I'm bleeding, I feel very wrong, I… am I going to die?" Anna panicked, wiping the blood on her face with both hands, but the more she wiped, the faster the blood flowed.

In the blink of an eye, she had become a bloody person.

Her face, her hands, her clothes, were all covered in blood!

"Don't be afraid, you won't die." Su Quan comforted her and grabbed Anna's hand again with a smile.

As early as the first touch, when he discovered Anna had awakened, the system had already determined that they had entered a combat state.

Absorbing life force!

If this doesn't count as combat, what does?

Although Anna's ability can absorb many things—life force, memories, abilities, and even personalities—this is just the application of the ability.

Her ability is only one thing: touch others to gain their superpowers and life force.

Now, Su Quan had also gained this ability, and it was stronger than Anna's!

After all, the characteristic of this ability lies in absorption.

And Su Quan had Jia Ying's ability to absorb life force and the ability to absorb energy from countless stacked abilities.

So in terms of absorption, Su Quan and Anna were worlds apart!

Su Quan prepared to absorb back the life force Anna had taken, but without psychic isolation, Anna would uncontrollably absorb him upon contact.

In other words, now they were absorbing each other.

What did everyone think of?

Uh, those who thought of something dirty, go face the wall; anyway, Su Quan immediately thought of the math problem about a swimming pool with water flowing in and out at the same time.

Su Quan was the one letting water out, and the speed of letting water out was far greater than the speed of water flowing in, so before long, the life force that had been absorbed was absorbed back, and Anna stopped bleeding and her state gradually returned to normal.

Feeling it was about enough, Su Quan let go of her hand.

"I… you… what exactly happened just now?" The dazed Anna was at a loss; all she felt now was fear!

Su Quan said: "I can tell you what happened, and I can clearly tell you that you are fine now."

"So, you go take a shower and change your clothes first. Once you've calmed down, I'll slowly tell you the truth about this world that not everyone knows yet!"

Anna breathed a sigh of relief, nodded obediently, and turned to go upstairs.

Speaking of which, Anna's awakening had no warning, unlike Cyclops, whose eyes were blurry and painful before awakening, and then he could release laser beams just by opening his eyes.

This was just Su Quan happening to catch it; if it had been like in the movie, with that little boyfriend of hers whose relationship ended before it even began, or if she had had physical contact with her parents, it would have been troublesome.

Without any psychological preparation, she would likely have been absorbed to death.

More than ten minutes later, Anna came down wearing Su Quan's white shirt.

"My, my clothes can't be worn anymore, I borrowed your clothes to wear for a while." Anna lowered her head and sat down beside Su Quan.

"Very beautiful!"

Su Quan looked a few more times; girls of her age can be said to look good in anything, not to mention a lethal weapon like a men's shirt!

"What exactly happened just now? Why did your face turn like that when you grabbed my hand later? And I started bleeding… and then when you grabbed me again, it was fine?"

"No, it's not fine; I can feel like something flowed out of my body."

Anna, having calmed down, wanted to figure out what had happened to her.

"Have you heard of mutants?"

"Mutants?"

Anna shook her head blankly, waiting for Su Quan to continue.

Su Quan didn't give a long-winded explanation of the origin of mutants, but simply popularized it, letting her know that some humans have mutant genes in their bodies, and during adolescence, the mutant genes awaken, thereby changing the original DNA and possessing different abilities.

"Your ability is to touch others to gain their superpowers and life force. This ability is very powerful, and its potential can exceed 99% of mutants, but—"

"But what?"

"Potential is just potential; before it's realized, you can't control your ability at all. So when we made contact, you absorbed my life force, and my life force is at least tens of thousands of years old; you absorbed a portion, which was enough to make you unable to bear it and start bleeding."

Listening, Anna seemed to think of something and said tremblingly: "You mean to say, I… I will absorb the other person's life force as long as I have contact with people?"

"Yes!"

"Then wouldn't I, wouldn't I never be able to have contact with people again?" Anna was struck by lightning, and her whole person collapsed.

Telling a young girl of this age that she could never have contact with people again—whoever it was, they would collapse!
