The Ancient One, who had lived for hundreds of years, seemed so weak, unable to use any powerful magic-was that possible?
Even a pig, with dull intelligence, would learn something after practicing magic for hundreds of years, at least better than Doctor Strange! So, Syd suspected that the Ancient One had intentionally sought death, putting on a show of weakness.
As for Odin, due to aging and other factors, his displayed power was also limited and unremarkable.
However, during the events of Ragnarok, the Fire Giant Surtur, who destroyed Asgard, showed a glimpse of the power of a Father-level being.
In the end, he destroyed Asgard with a single sword strike, a truly shocking scene. Given enough time, Surtur could probably destroy Earth as well.
Aside from them, there were also the even more powerful Celestials.
Syd remembered that there was a Celestial incubating in Earth's core.
Once it successfully emerged, it would mean Earth's destruction...
Syd frowned.
"Forget it, I won't think about that now. I need to restore my internal light energy first, then destroy that research base."
...
Time quickly passed.
Soon, the next day arrived.
As dawn broke, the golden sunlight spread across the land.
A series of footsteps echoed in the distance as Syd looked out.
He saw familiar large walls and black-clad guards.
It was Base 23! At this moment, Syd was dressed in black, returning to his Messiah attire.
His internal light energy had fully recovered.
The next second, he stepped towards the base's main gate.
At the gate of Base 23.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Currently, four black-clad guards were chatting while on duty.
"If it weren't for that Messiah, we wouldn't have been sent here to guard this place."
John, a blond man, complained with a grimace.
The thought of his colleagues slacking off inside while they had to guard under the blazing sun irritated him.
His words quickly gained the sympathy of the other three.
"Exactly, that disgusting mutant. If I ever meet him, I'll shoot him down with a few bursts!"
Clint, a burly bearded man, picked up his black rifle, mimicking shooting it with a "bang, bang, bang" gesture.
Hearing this, the others laughed heartily.
"Haha, Clint, you're all talk. If you really met Messiah, you'd turn into a coward."
"Right, haha..."
Clint retorted, "Coward? If I meet him, I'll shoot him down and show him my might!"
As they joked about Messiah, Syd appeared in their view, coming around the parked vehicles.
"Stop!"
Seeing the approaching figure in black, John and the others frowned.
Who was this sudden arrival? Just a passerby? Curious to peek into the base? Either way, a bit of intimidation would make him leave in a hurry.
As they thought this, the approaching figure got closer, and their eyes widened in horror.
"Me-Messiah?"
"It's you?"
"What are you doing here?"
This black-clad figure with a familiar face was unforgettable, even if he turned to ashes.
"Ah..."
They screamed in terror, instinctively taking a few steps back, ready to flee.
Their earlier bravado vanished; now faced with Messiah, they lacked the courage to even pull the trigger.
The psychological pressure of confronting Messiah was overwhelming. His mere presence almost made them wet their pants. Legs trembling, they attempted to run.
However, they didn't get far.
Syd's hands glowed blue.
The next second, a blue energy beam shot out.
Blue light flashed.
With a swift motion, the fleeing guards were cut down, their blood spraying as they fell.
A blast from the energy beam left a crater about one or two meters deep.
The four men, with expressions of resentment and unwillingness, fell headless to the ground.
"Damn Messiah, why did you come here?"
"No..."
They died in despair, without even managing a single shot.
Throughout, Syd barely glanced at them.
They were nothing more than insects.
With his current power, Syd thought casually.
However, the energy beam's upgraded effect was indeed impressive and convenient.
After dealing with the guards, Syd turned his gaze to the solid silver gate.
Previously, he had escaped through spatial transfer, but now...
The next second, his hands glowed blue again.
With a swift motion, the blue beam sliced across the silver gate.
However, to Syd's surprise, the energy beam at its current level didn't cut through the gate
completely, only leaving a deep gash.
The gate was unexpectedly thick.
In the next moment, the blue beam's power surged, and the gate was completely severed,
toppling inward.
With a loud crash, the gate fell, raising a cloud of dust in the sunlight.
"What's that sound?"
"What happened to the gate?"
Black-clad guards and soldiers looked on in shock.
At that moment, an alarm blared, signaling an external breach.
"An intruder?"
"Who dares invade? Are they insane?"
As the alarm rang out, guards, soldiers, researchers, and prisoners alike were bewildered,
finding it hard to believe anyone would dare invade the base.
After the last incident with that woman, security had been tightened. Now, whoever dared to
break in was doomed! A flurry of footsteps echoed as hundreds of black-clad guards and
soldiers rushed to the gate.
They saw a black-clad young man walking towards them as if taking a casual stroll, his gaze
sweeping over them indifferently.
So arrogant, insane? But as they got a clear look at his face, their thoughts changed.
"Messiah?"
"Ah..."
Cries of shock rang out.
Syd ascended into the sky, his aura intensifying.
He looked down at them coldly.
The ethereal, urgent music that accompanied his rise heightened their sense of suffocation.
