Without a trace of fear, he walked through the air as if on flat ground, slowly but surely, step by step, ascending to a great height.
At this moment, he could easily overlook the entire building and the land.
"Now, let me make you feel the pain I endured earlier."
Buzz!
A clear light emanated from his body, and gradually, a terrifying and surging energy fluctuation rose, like a volcano poised to erupt, creating an incredibly alarming momentum.
No one knew where the nuclear explosion that had previously occurred at the large experimental base had gone.
In fact, it didn't just disappear.
Instead, Alex Johnson's body absorbed the energy of the entire nuclear explosion.
Therefore, for this period, he walked through the Manhattan urban area like a human weapon.
He had been too merciful.
This time, he decided to play a big game.
It's time to let them experience the pain of being baptized by a nuclear explosion!
Hmm... Hit-Girl Mindy, who had been in a dazed sleep, suddenly woke up from a nightmare.
She dreamed of her father's death.
But soon, the scene in her dream shifted again, turning into a hellish picture of Alex's bloody rampage.
"Alex..."
Mindy's expression changed.
But in the safe house before her, Alex was nowhere to be seen.
She suddenly remembered that she had said many harsh words when she lost control of her emotions, and after reason returned, she realized her impropriety. After all, the root of all problems and mistakes was not with Alex.
He was also a victim, and her words could only pierce his heart like sharp swords.
Suddenly.
She turned to look at the television set beside her, only to see the screen broadcasting live coverage of an upcoming press conference. However, what no one expected was that the teenager, who had just been declared a global fugitive, was hovering in the air above the building.
"Alex..."
At once, Mindy's delicate face was filled with shock. She looked at Alex with disbelief.
Alex, please don't do anything foolish.
Mindy knew how much grievance Alex had suffered beneath his indifferent and ruthless facade, and how much pain his heart had endured, suppressing how much killing intent for so long.
She had seen some background information and naturally knew that Alex was a laboratory guinea pig who had narrowly escaped death, not some heinous enemy.
But once he attacked a landmark building under the gaze of the world, everything would be irreversible... Reversible?
Alex, who was utterly disappointed with the world, had never even considered that word.
From this moment on, he only wanted the world to experience the pain he had endured.
The nuclear explosion.
It was these guys who had bestowed it upon him.
Not many people could imagine that a person's body could instantly store the power of a nuclear explosion within them.
External energy is like water, and the body is like a wooden barrel.
To instantly bear such a vast amount of energy naturally requires an incredibly strong physique.
And Alex's body was indestructible. After being baptized by the nuclear explosion, his reorganized and healed physique developed new resistance, perfectly adapting to terrifying energy impacts, and his muscle strength climbed to a whole new level.
Therefore, he could walk through the city with immense and powerful energy as if nothing had happened.
"It's time to return all of this to you!"
Alex couldn't hear the panicked shouts of the people below.
The constant energy fluctuations emanating from his body made the surrounding air currents increasingly chaotic, like a typhoon passing through, raging between heaven and earth.
Soon.
The swirling energy gradually seeped out of his body, continuously gushing forth from within him.
At this moment, Alex, glowing all over, was like a rising sun, and the blazing white daylight instantly covered everything in sight. The immense energy carried by the light also destroyed everything here.
"No!!"
"Run!!"
The personnel on the ground, on alert, scattered in all directions. They couldn't have imagined that the figure ascending into the sky would self-detonate.
Moreover, the explosion of this energy was like a crushing sun striking down. The entire magnificent building, like a blade unsheathed, instantly evaporated like a snowman under the summer sun.
"Ah!!"
The figures running on the ground, and even the curious reporters, could not escape this catastrophe.
Their figures also evaporated with it.
Soon... the sweeping nuclear explosion light perfectly covered the entire area of the building, annihilating the building, along with all the soldiers and staff within it.
From a distance, one could see a vast and spectacular mushroom cloud rising from the ground.
No one expected that this building, on which the military had placed high hopes to mock criminals, would meet the fate of being nuked by someone.
"Oh my God, what is this?"
"God above, that teenager isn't self-destructing, is he?"
"Damn it, I definitely didn't see wrong, that fugitive directly turned into a sun, emitting an extremely dazzling light..."
The audience in front of their televisions were also completely stunned.
But at this moment, the screen lost its satellite signal, making it impossible to relay the live broadcast from the scene.
Even the most foolish person vaguely understood that the light released from the teenager's body just now seemed to have transformed into a terrifying explosive impact that struck the entire landmark building.
Of course, the citizens in Capital City saw this scene with extreme clarity.
A chilling mushroom cloud rose from the ground far away.
"Oh my God, has our country been hit by a nuclear explosion?"
Soon.
Someone uploaded a video of the mushroom cloud taken with their phone to social media.
[Shocking! The building designed by Iron Man was nuked! The military was publicly slapped in the face! This scene is truly spectacular.]
At once.
The click-through rate instantly surpassed hundreds of thousands, and with reposts and shares, more and more people learned that Washington D.C., commonly known as Capital City, had been attacked.
"Wait, isn't this a joke?"
Tony Stark, inside the Stark Headquarters building in Manhattan, almost spat out the water in his mouth when he heard this news.
"The facility hailed as the safest in the world, guaranteed not to let any criminal escape, was nuked at close range before it even went into use?"
This made Tony feel incredibly humiliated.
Watching the various reposted video footage, Tony, who had already become Iron Man, felt immense curiosity.
"Jarvis..."
"Yes, Master."
The AI butler Jarvis immediately understood his Master's intention. Through satellite equipment linked to low Earth orbit, Jarvis immediately calculated the exact nuclear yield value.
"Suspected to be a Mutant ability of energy absorption, allowing this globally wanted fugitive to store a terrifying nuclear yield within his body. However, based on the scale of the self-detonation, this teenager could not have survived."
"Well, that's pretty obvious."
Iron Man Tony grumbled.
After all, this really didn't need calculation; anyone with a brain who saw this scene would basically conclude that the person had self-detonated and died.
