Chapter 799

~6 min read 1,184 words

Su Quan turned off psychic isolation, not using any abilities.

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

"Ah..." Anna screamed in surprise and hurriedly shook off Su Quan's hand.

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

"Good guy, 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 one-third of his life force had been absorbed. That is to say, without self-healing ability, his life force couldn't even withstand the time it takes to send a 60-second voice message!

You have to know that his life force is different from ordinary humans. He has 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, him living for tens of thousands of years is absolutely no problem!

But ten thousand 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 has no meaning to Su Quan anymore. With self-healing ability, life force is almost infinite, so Su Quan had already recovered at this time.

But Anna is different!

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

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

That's right, absorbing ten thousand years of life force all at once—"too much of a good thing" can't even describe her current state!

She is a mutant, and the life force absorbed through her ability can enhance herself, so it's just bleeding from the seven orifices. If this were an ordinary person, they would probably have kicked the bucket directly.

"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, hands, and clothes were all covered in blood!

"Don't be afraid, you won't die," Su Quan comforted her and smiled, grabbing Anna's hand again.

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

Absorbing life force!

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

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

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

Now, Su Quan has also acquired this ability, and it's stronger than Anna's!

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

And Su Quan has Jia Ying's ability to absorb life force and the ability to absorb energy by stacking countless abilities.

So in terms of absorption, Su Quan and Anna are separated by countless Jia Yings!

Su Quan prepared to absorb the life force Anna had taken back. It's just that without psychic isolation, Anna would uncontrollably absorb him upon contact.

That is to say, now they are absorbing each other.

What did everyone think of?

Uh, those who thought of something dirty, face the wall. Anyway, Su Quan immediately thought of the math problem about a swimming pool with water coming in and going 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 water coming in, so not long after, the life force that had been absorbed earlier was absorbed back, and Anna stopped bleeding, her state gradually returning 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. She only had one feeling now, and that 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 first, change your clothes, and when you calm down, I'll slowly tell you the truth that no one in this world knows yet!"

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

Come to think of it, Anna's awakening had no warning, unlike Cyclops, who had blurry vision and pain before awakening, and then as long as he kept his eyes open, he could release laser beams.

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

Without any mental preparation, she would likely be absorbed to death directly.

Ten minutes later, Anna came down wearing Su Quan's white shirt.

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

"Very beautiful!"

Su Quan looked a few more times. A young girl of her age can be said to look good in anything, not to mention a big killer like a men's shirt!

"What exactly happened just now? Why did your complexion turn like that when you grabbed my hand earlier? 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, who had 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, just gave a simple popular science lesson, letting her know that some humans have mutant genes in their bodies, and during adolescence, the mutant genes will awaken, thereby changing the original DNA and possessing different abilities.

"Your ability is to touch others to acquire 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 withstand it and start bleeding."

Listening, Anna seemed to have thought of something and said tremblingly: "You mean to say, I... I will absorb the other party'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 can never have contact with people again—whoever it is, they would collapse!
