Chapter 602: Apocalypse (1st update, asking for monthly votes and flowers)

"Mr., why did we come to Cairo? Is there someone here you need?" Eric stood beside Jiang Hao and asked.

Eric didn't know much about Jiang Hao's habits.

Nor did he dare to look into what was going on in Jiang Hao's mind.

Jiang Hao could enhance his abilities and let him gain new ones—couldn't Jiang Hao also make himself possess even stronger abilities?

He respected Jiang Hao, but he also revered him.

Because Jiang Hao was very powerful, one might even say omnipotent.

Although he didn't understand Jiang Hao's habits,

he knew that whatever Jiang Hao did, there was inevitably a reason behind it.

"I did come here to find someone, but he isn't the one I need."

Jiang Hao came to Cairo.

He had only one target: Apocalypse.

Among all the mutants, Apocalypse couldn't be called the strongest.

But his abilities were the most well-rounded.

He had many abilities: immortality, super strength, super speed, super endurance, super durability, teleportation, flight, telekinesis, telepathy, energy manipulation, energy projection, energy absorption, energy transference, force fields, super brain, super reflexes (original to the film).

In the film, Apocalypse was actually only a Class Four, that is, a Beta-level mutant.

But because of his many abilities, working in concert,

the combat power he unleashed could even crush Alpha-level mutants.

If not for Jean Grey, no one in the film could have defeated Apocalypse.

Although Jean Grey was said to be an Omega-level mutant,

she actually wasn't really a mutant.

Because her power came from the Phoenix Force within her.

And Apocalypse's energy absorption could let him keep growing stronger.

Simply put, given enough time, he could absorb energy to make himself even more powerful.

Even reaching Omega level.

With that suite of abilities, if he grew to Omega level, he'd be the equivalent of another Superman.

After all, his energy absorption was like Superman getting stronger just by sunbathing.

Energy projection was similar to Cyclops's optic blasts.

Energy manipulation could let him create illusions, alter memories, restructure matter, and physically heal damaged or destroyed bodily tissue.

This was equivalent to him possessing a disguised super healing factor.

And a super healing factor no worse than Logan's.

Of course, his body repair required energy, unlike Logan and Victor, who could create something from nothing and heal their bodily wounds without limit.

But it was still a very powerful ability.

This could greatly guarantee Apocalypse's survival.

Besides that, his force field ability was like Superman's bio-force field, letting him form a powerful force field around himself.

Creating an almost impenetrable powerful force field.

Its use was almost no different from Superman's force field.

One could say Apocalypse was a shrunken-down version of Superman.
