Starting five days ago, Victor frequently had nightmares.
In his dreams.
He was still in the vast expanse of outer space, aboard a spaceship developed by his company, capable of withstanding cosmic storms, conducting scientific research with Reed, Susan, and others in the spaceship's cabin.
It was the eve of the cosmic storm's arrival, and the five of them were, as always, making preparations.
It was then that an accident occurred.
Of course, it wasn't the cosmic storm arriving early, but a far more terrifying change than the cosmic storm—
Inside the spacecraft's cabin, through the window, the five of them first noticed a distant artificial satellite mysteriously explode, an orange-yellow fireball blazing dazzlingly in the vast, dark Universe, and then a tiny figure rapidly shot out from the fireball, trailing streams of fiery debris filled with metal fragments, like a cannonball hurtling towards their spacecraft!
In a mere blink of an eye, under everyone's shocked gaze, the figure was already close to the spaceship, and they could clearly see it was a tall man with his upper body bare!
That was,
The resurrected Superman!
Victor's brain at the time realized what that being was, and he watched as the other party crashed down without slowing. In that instant, when he had no time to react, and any reaction would have been futile, his body and mind truly tasted despair and Death!
And in the next instant.
Another figure, bright as day, streaked through the Universe like lightning, catching up at an even faster speed than Superman, and precariously kicked the other party's body flying towards the more distant Moon!
A sacred, pristine golden halo trailed behind him, silver hair flowing down, imbued with a destructive light source. He wore a black Super battle suit with an inherent dark cape, his golden-ratio physique highlighting perfect muscle curves, and around his body, streaks of thunderous lightning power manifested.
The youth, existing like an invincible god, stood above the Universe. Even though he paused beside the spacecraft for less than a second, it left an indelible memory imprint on the five individuals, including Victor, and their long-held faith and understanding of science almost crumbled!
Is the end of science theology?!
Victor could never forget that powerful individual existence, countless times beyond his own comprehension, making his proud and arrogant self feel as weak and incompetent as other humans!
It was also from that day on that Victor would often wake up from nightmares, craving power beyond human limits!
And after his body was exposed to the cosmic storm, and he successfully returned to Earth yesterday.
Victor finally awakened extraordinary abilities beyond human limits, but the cost was his face being completely disfigured, so he could only wear an iron mask to dare to meet people. He originally thought he was the only lucky one, but after Reed came to him, he learned that the other four had also gained different extraordinary abilities!
What's more, Reed hadn't even been disfigured!
Jealousy, arrogance, hatred, destruction—all sorts of negative emotions brewed within Victor, and he wanted to kill the other four who had also gained extraordinary abilities in one fell swoop, so that he, the sole extraordinary being, could rule this city as a Superhero!
...In downtown Los Angeles, blue and White electric light flickered, and a strong, pungent smell of burning permeated the air.
"What in the world is going on here...? How can you have such powerful energy?!"
He watched as the two powerful lightning plasma attacks he unleashed were blocked by an even more surging and powerful energy shield.
Victor's exposed eyes widened, staring at Susan, who was protected by three layers of shields, his eyes filled with incredulity.
Invisible Woman Susan's beautiful eyes were also a little dazed; even she didn't know what was happening, but the energy forming the shield was too familiar, as if it came from her own body.
"This is..." Susan seemed to sense something and looked up.
Visible, in the sky about ten meters above the street.
A blue-haired boy, his body coated with a protective energy film, drifted down from the night sky. He was holding a small, green-haired girl in his arms. The cute and adorable girl, with her hands crossed over her chest, clutched a school bag, and her feet, with their fair ankles exposed beneath her cuffed long pants, swung back and forth like a pendulum.
Those were Max and Polaris, the siblings—
How is this possible?!
Susan's sexy lips parted slightly, revealing an expression even more surprised than Victor's.
"What are you looking at, Susan?"
Noticing Susan's abnormality ahead, Victor followed her gaze upwards, then asked in a hoarse, surprised voice.
He can't see him?
Susan looked around and found that Thing Ben behind her, and the onlookers around, didn't notice the night sky above her head. She suddenly realized.
Not only could Victor not see him, but no one else besides her could see the existence of this brother and sister!
They were clearly in a state of continuous invisibility!
Susan admitted she couldn't even do that; she could only make her own body invisible now, and even had to take off her clothes to be completely invisible, and she would also be exposed from invisibility when attacking.
Xi Nian, simultaneously controlling and merging two superpowers, held Lorna and lightly drifted down in front of Susan, his feet floating about a meter off the ground in the low air, looking up at Victor, who was dressed in a mix of magical and technological styles.
"Who's there?!"
Victor stared intently at the street area in front of him. Although he couldn't see the invisible Xi Nian and Lorna, at such a close distance, he could still vaguely sense a living presence ahead.
Xi Nian did not respond to his words, and as for Lorna, she seemed disdainful of responding.
"Come out!" Victor suddenly raised his hands wildly, erupting with streaks of lightning as thick as bowls. The astonishing lightning currents intertwined into a net, surging forward, instantly detaching from his body and rushing ten meters away, only to be blocked by a blue energy shield that appeared out of thin air!
"I found you!!"
Victor gave a cold smile. He was about to release more lightning energy, but he was quickly stunned again.
Unable to move!
Victor's eyeballs rotated violently a few times. He remained motionless, maintaining the posture of raising his hands, his body as if trapped in airtight cement, or as if directly embedded in the very center of a piece of steel!
In the low air about ten meters in front of him.
The continuously invisible Xi Nian's hands were still occupied holding Lorna, but the boy's eyes glowed with an enigmatic deep blue color.
Not to mention Polaris Lorna's inherent magnetic control, which itself was the bane of Victor, who was currently wearing metal armor and a mask. Now, Xi Nian had even merged with Susan's abilities, pushing this extraordinary control to another level!
To describe it as controlling all Things is no exaggeration.
"Go down."
With a thought from Xi Nian, the blue arcs of light in his eyes and on his body became dazzlingly bright; of course, these lights were also in an invisible, undetectable superhuman state.
Everything could only be seen by Susan, who also possessed invisibility!
