Chapter 5 - Ambush

"I was scared to death, that was a real gun!" 

Darwin said timidly that under such great pressure between life and death, he dared not be distracted at all.

 Everyone nodded repeatedly. They were all frightened by this training. No one knew who the next shot would be directed at, and they were afraid of getting shot because of distraction. 

"Haha, this is nothing. When you go to the battlefield, there will be more terrifying things than this!" Aron patted Darwin on the shoulder. "And your adaptation speed has become faster, hasn't it?"

This made everyone realize that they had indeed improved their abilities, and Darwin's adaptation speed had surpassed his previous performance. 

"The rifle is to increase your stress. Otherwise, with just this playful training, will you really make any progress?"

Everyone nodded in understanding. They accepted Aron's reasoning. Only in times of crisis could they quickly improve their control over their own abilities.

 "Okay, now I'll teach you some fighting techniques so that your fight doesn't end up like a gangster brawl!" 

Aron demonstrated a set of deadly fighting skills. Although it was not very good-looking, everyone learned a lot from it seriously. 

Especially Hank and other guys who had no means of long-range attack, they all studied very seriously. 

They knew that this was the means they would really use in the future. As everyone practiced enthusiastically, the sky gradually darkened. 

After a day of training, everyone was already exhausted, but their spirits were still pretty good. After all, their abilities had indeed increased a lot.

 "It seems like everyone can still adapt, so let's continue tomorrow!" 

Accompanied by the wailing of the crowd, Aron returned to the bedroom with a smile. In the next few days, everyone spent time in training. Although they were very tired every day, no one gave up. 

That night, everyone sat on the lawn outside the room and imagined the future. Their understanding of their own abilities had improved a lot. 

"I don't know what Charles and the others will do. I can't wait to have a big fight with those bad guys!" 

Alex released a one-meter-long red energy beam from his hand. It looked like a lightsaber from Star Wars. 

This was something he had figured out these days, and it allowed him to gain a certain advantage in close combat. 

While they were discussing, on the other side of the earth, Charles and others captured Shaw's confidant, a woman who could transform into a diamond body and also had psychic powers.

Originally, she could use her diamond body to be immune to Charles's mind reading, but under the violent destruction of Eric and Logan, she had to remove the diamond body and allow Charles to read her memory. 

"It's worse than I thought!" Charles looked at the two people around him. "Shaw wants to start a nuclear war!" 

Nuclear war? Eric didn't feel anything, but Logan still remembered it clearly. He had personally experienced the power of a nuclear bomb. If he had not had super healing abilities, he would have died in the nuclear explosion twenty years ago. 

"Nuclear bomb, very dangerous!" As he spoke, Logan squatted in front of the the woman, and his bone claws suddenly pierced into her arm, and blood flowed down along the bone claws. 

As she screamed in pain, Logan stared at her and asked, "Where is that guy?"

 "He went to the CIA..." The woman answered Logan while enduring the pain.

 Now this information is useless. These guys can't go back. The mutants have only two choices: either follow Shaw and become his weapon, or become a corpse.

After hearing her answer, Charles and Eric's faces changed instantly. That guy actually went to find Raven and the others! 

Looking at the expressions of the two men, the woman sneered. So what if they caught her? Their gathered strength had already been dealt with by Shaw!

 But Logan didn't have any worries. He picked up a box of cigars from the table next to him and said as he opened it.

 "Don't worry about them. Aron's strength is far beyond your imagination."

***

The people who were resting on the lawn suddenly heard a strange noise. They looked up at the sky and saw figures falling from the sky. 

"Angie, Hank, Sean, go save them! Everyone else, get ready for battle." 

Under Aron's command, Angel flew into the air first and caught the falling CIA agents one by one, while Sean used his voice to give himself the ability to fly, and cooperated with Hank to save many people. 

The others also entered combat mode, guarding against enemies that were nowhere to be found. 

Aron held a pistol in one hand and a half-meter-long saber in the other, sensing the situation around him.

 "It's here as expected! But do you really think that things will go as you expected?"

 A faint sound suddenly occurred. This unusual movement made Aron fire a shot at the shadow that made the sound as if by reflex. 

The bullet didn't hit anyone, but the strange noise did reappear.

 "Teleportation? I think I know who it is!"

Muttering to himself, the two weapons in Aron's hands flashed a slight light and were instantly wrapped by the power of the void.

A guy who looked like a red devil and was holding two sharp blades suddenly appeared behind Aron and slashed at him. 

Ding~ The saber blocked the guy's weapon, and Aron stared at him and teased.

 "Ha, you're really red, did you just escape from hell?" Having said that, he pulled the trigger, wanting to kill this guy. 

Unfortunately, the shot did not hit the opponent. The moment he pulled the trigger, the Red Devil was teleported to another place.

 "Ah, the elusive mouse!" 

Aron's eyes glowed as he spoke, and the surrounding environment turned black and white in his eyes. 

In this black and white scene, a ball of red energy was rapidly moving through it. 

"I saw you!" He leaped towards the direction of the red energy with his legs, slashing downwards quickly with the saber in his hand.

 "ah!!!!" The Red Devil appeared not far away, screaming miserably, and his tail was chopped off by Aron! He picked up the two-meter-long tail and swung it at the red devil.

 With a crisp sound, the tail hit the red devil hard, sending it flying.

 "Ha, nice whip!" His words were nothing but a mockery to the Red Devil, but he had already suffered a serious injury and needed to go to a safe place to be bandaged first. 

Click~ Distorted mist emerged from around him, but it was just some mist; he himself did not move at all. 

"Don't waste your energy!" Aron turned to look at Raven and the others, "I'll leave this guy to you. Pay attention to your own safety!"

 After saying that, he walked towards other places. The strange noises were not only coming from their side, there were also unusual movements in other places. 

Passing through the room with broken windows, a huge tornado appeared in front of him.

 "Honestly, I kind of like you guys. Your abilities make me miss some equipment!" 

This inexplicable storm reminded Aron of the armor called Zephyr. He liked to use this armor to complete tasks for a long time when he was playing games before he transmigrated. 

The power of the void was quickly injected into the gun, and the bolt was pulled towards the huge storm.
