Getting stronger and stronger starting from Marvel

Outside St. Patrick's Church, crowds of people flocked to visit the church.

Unlike the bustling scene outside, a young girl, completely wrapped in a black robe, walked alone in an empty alley.

Gently lowering the black cloak, the girl revealed a delicate, chubby, and adorable face. She was none other than Mary, the mischievous girl Charles had asked White Night to help.

Fifteen days have passed since she awakened her mutant abilities. Having frequently seen mutants wreaking havoc in the news, she never imagined that one day she would become a mutant herself.

In particular, her awakened mutant ability causes everyone who comes into contact with her to lose their strength and fall unconscious. This ability is like a curse, forcing her to stay away from people to prevent harming others.

"Got you."

Just as the little rascal was burying his head in his work, a hoarse voice came from ahead in the alley.

She looked up and saw a tall, fierce-looking man dressed like a savage, blocking the road and staring at her with the eyes of someone eyeing prey.

Especially the four sharp fangs in the other's open mouth, resembling those of a large feline.

Looking at the unapproachable man in front of her, the mischievous girl subconsciously took two steps back and asked somewhat timidly, "Hello, may I ask what you need me for?"

"Our boss just needs you." Saber-toothed Tiger looked at the little rascal who had nowhere to run and said in an extremely relaxed tone, "I hope you will come with me on your own, otherwise you will inevitably suffer a lot."

Before the saber-toothed tiger could finish speaking, the mischievous little boy, sensing danger, turned and fled without hesitation, like a frightened animal.

Seeing the girl hurrying through the alley, the saber-toothed tiger chased after her with an incredibly relaxed expression.

Magneto had already told him about the little girl's abilities; it was merely an absorption of power. As long as she didn't come into contact with him, she would just be an ordinary girl, and she wouldn't be able to escape his grasp.

As the little rascal ran, she glanced back at the figure relentlessly pursuing her. The scruffy savage was incredibly fast and would catch up with her in no time.

10 meters...5 meters...3 meters...

Looking at the girl so close to him, a fierce glint flashed in the saber-toothed tiger's eyes. He couldn't let this little girl cause such a ruckus on the way back; it seemed he had to teach her a lesson first.

Thinking this, the saber-toothed tiger leaped high into the air, its five slender claws rapidly growing longer and transforming into sharp bone claws, which then reached for the little rascal's Achilles tendon.

But just before he could touch it, his beastly instincts sensed the danger first, and a terrifying sense of threat came rapidly from above.

'What the hell?' The saber-toothed tiger subconsciously looked up, only to see a shoe rapidly enlarging in his vision before stomping hard on his cervical spine.

Saber-toothed tiger felt as if a massive road roller weighing tens of tons was running over him from behind. The terrifying pressure instantly shattered his bones and forced his body, which was suspended in mid-air, to the ground.

"boom!!!"

The mischievous boy, filled with the urge to run away, heard a loud explosion behind him, and then felt his feet begin to tremble noticeably.

"Oh no!" Little Rascal thought to herself, a sudden sound behind her startled her, and she stumbled and fell to the ground.

Ignoring the burning pain from her hand scraping the ground, the girl hurriedly turned around, but what she saw behind her was something she would never forget.

The disheveled man who had been chasing him earlier was now lying on the ground like a dead dog.

A boy in a white shirt stepped on the man's back with his right foot like a giant pillar supporting the sky. The terrifying force even penetrated the disheveled man's body, creating a huge crater a meter wide in the ground beneath his feet.

"It seems the timing is just right."

Bai Ye looked at the little rascal staring blankly at him, ignoring the saber-toothed tiger hidden in the dust at his feet, and smiled as he extended his right hand to the girl, saying, "Hello, let's get acquainted. My name is Bai Ye. I heard you've been looking for me."

'Is this a god?' Little Rascal wondered to himself.

The sunlight shone on Bai Ye's handsome face, making him look like an angel from God's kingdom. The perfect scene before him made Xiao Taoqi momentarily dazed, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out his right hand.

But looking at Bai Ye's fair and slender fingers in front of her, and comparing them to her own hands covered in dust and bloodstains, the girl withdrew her outstretched right hand.

"Your hand is injured." Bai Ye noticed the wound on Xiao Taoqi's arm, stomped the saber-toothed tiger's struggling head into the ground, and gently grasped the other's hand.

"Wait, you can't touch me." Seeing Bai Ye take his right hand, the little rascal suddenly remembered his abilities and quickly withdrew his hand.

But Xiao Taoqi's right hand was firmly grasped by Bai Ye, and a powerful force was transmitted from the other party.

The girl anxiously looked up at the boy in front of her, only to see him looking at her with a normal expression, as if nothing had happened.

'Could it be that my abilities have no effect on him?' Little Rascal thought with delight, but feeling the continuous surge of power within him, he asked, 'Are you alright?'

"It hurts a little, but it's within an acceptable range."

Despite feeling excruciating pain as if his body were being torn apart, Bai Ye smiled calmly, his gaze fixed on the numbers on his panel.

Name: Bai Ye

寿命：18/30000……29000……28000……27000……

Strength: 2.7 + 0.4... 2.6 + 0.4...

Physical condition: 2.7 + 0.4... 2.6 + 0.4...

Spirit: 2.7+……2.6……

Charisma: 1.4+

Attribute points to be used: 0.1

……

'It seems there are risks involved in prolonged contact, but the attribute points gained from the attribute panel don't appear to be absorbed.'

Watching the values ​​on the attribute panel steadily decrease, Bai Ye thought to himself, then released Xiao Taoqi's right hand at the opportune moment and smiled, "Alright, your hand shouldn't hurt anymore now, right?"

"My hand?" Little Rascal looked down and was surprised to see that the scratches on his palm had healed, leaving only traces of blood mixed with dust to show that the wounds were real.

After glancing at the saber-toothed tiger lying there like a dead dog, Little Rascal sincerely thanked her, "Thank... thank you for saving me. My name is Mary, you can call me Little Rascal. I came to New York to see you..."

"No need to explain." Bai Ye smiled and gently patted Xiao Taoqi's shoulder, saying, "I know more than you do, and I came here specifically to see you."

"Looking for... looking for me?" The little rascal looked at her idol in shock. She thought it was a fateful encounter, a passing boy meeting a girl in trouble. She never expected it to be a mutual journey. This was something she never dared to imagine.

“That’s right. Could you please wait for me outside the alley for a moment? I have something to discuss with him,” Bai Ye said.

And as he released his right hand, Bai Ye saw the values ​​on the panel that had been decreasing gradually return to normal, and the power he had lost began to recover.

Chapter 59 Conversation and Choice

Why bother talking to this slovenly man?

Little Mischief looked down at the saber-toothed tiger at Bai Ye's feet. How could this person still be alive despite being so badly injured?

The little rascal nodded obediently, asked no further questions, and walked out of the alley to wait at the entrance.

After the little rascal had gone far away, Bai Ye released his foot from the saber-toothed tiger's head, allowing its head to be lifted out of the ground again.

"Kid, do you know who you've messed with?" Sabretooth got up from the ground, his shattered bones and other wounds long since healed: "We're from the Brotherhood of Mutants."

"I know, you're the ones I'm looking for."

Faced with Sabretooth's self-destructive behavior, which resembled that of a street thug, Bai Ye rolled his eyes: "I'd like you to pass on a message to Magneto. I know he's researching a machine that can transform humans into mutants."

"However, the machine he built has major flaws. Let's not rush into testing it. I'd like to have a good talk with him three days from now."

Seeing the saber-toothed tiger's wide, incredulous eyes, Bai Ye raised an eyebrow and said, "Do you have a problem right now? If not, then you'd better get lost."

"How did you know about our plan?" Sabretooth asked.

Only a few people, including Magneto, knew about his own plans. How did this guy find out?

"You don't need to worry about that. Just obediently pass on my message to him." After Bai Ye finished speaking, he turned around, ignoring the saber-toothed tiger behind him, and slowly walked out of the alley.

Behind him, Saber-toothed Tiger, whose mission had failed, hesitated before preparing to report the outcome to Magneto.

Outside the alley, Little Rascal watched the endless stream of people on the street, her heart pounding and her mind filled with all sorts of thoughts.

'Who is that disheveled man, and why did he capture me...? And why did Bai Ye know I was here and want to find me too...? And regarding the healing ability on my hand, is Bai Ye also a mutant?'

A flurry of thoughts rushed through her mind, making the girl feel somewhat flustered. She felt as if she had been caught in the vortex of some conspiracy, but when she recalled the continuous power that Bai Ye had transmitted when she shook hands with him, her fluctuating emotions calmed down again.

'If I were by Bai Ye's side, there would definitely be no problem.' Little Mischief thought to himself as he stroked his healed hand.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." At that moment, a calm voice came from behind the girl.

Bai Ye took out a mask and put it on. He walked out of the alley and looked at the girl, saying, "You must have a lot of questions right now. Don't worry, I remember there's a Burger King nearby. Let's talk as we walk."

"Mm." The girl nodded emphatically and followed Bai Ye toward the fast food restaurant.

A few minutes later, the little rascal looked at the pile of food in front of him and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"You eat, it's not convenient for me to show my face in public." Bai Ye tugged at his mask and said, "I'll take this opportunity to tell you about the current situation."

"First of all, there's your ability, which is the superpowerful ability to absorb other people's power, life force, and even mutated abilities through physical contact, and it has great potential for improvement."

"That's why that mutant wanted to hunt you down; your abilities are extremely tempting to them," Bai Ye said slowly.

He didn't want to reveal Magneto's true purpose for the time being, since it might cause trouble if the X-Men found out.

"As for me, the reason I found you by chance is that I was asked by another mutant to escort you to a school where all the students and teachers are mutants."

"A mutant school? Are there places like that?" Little Rascal stopped eating and stared wide-eyed.

"Of course, after all, you know how society treats mutants these days. In normal schools, it's not good for either mutants or humans."

"So are you a mutant too?" Little Rascal asked, looking at White Night.

She has always been quite insecure about her mutant identity; ever since she awakened this ability, nothing good has ever happened to her.

"Not at the moment, you can only be considered a superhuman. However, everyone has mutant genes in their body, and it's not impossible for them to awaken their genes and become mutants in the future," Bai Ye said meaningfully.

Upon hearing that Bai Ye wasn't a mutant, Xiao Taoqi's head immediately sank, and he continued to silently chew his food.

"Now you have two choices. The first is to stay at my house for the night, and then I'll take you to the mutant academy tomorrow morning."

"As for the second one, you can choose not to go to that mutant academy. Whether you go home or wander the streets afterward, I won't stop you," Bai Ye said slowly.

At this moment, faced with Bai Ye's choice, Xiao Taoqi pondered for a long time before slowly raising his head and asking, "May I follow you?"

'Follow me…' Bai Ye fell into deep thought.

Bai Ye didn't really have any intention of subduing the girl in front of him who had the ability to absorb things. After all, apart from the pain that came when he touched her, which was comparable to the feeling of being electrocuted, it had no effect on his training.

Bai Ye's first talent is that there is no bottleneck, and she can become stronger indefinitely.

In other words, the training effect of 100 tons is 10 times that of 10 tons, and there is no situation where the training speed slows down.

If that's the case, why make the girl absorb his power, and then reduce the power to 10 tons before subjecting her to 10-ton weight training? Isn't that counterproductive?

If the girl's absorption ability can only absorb physical energy and has no effect on strength, then it will be quite useful to him, since the training effect is doubled when physical strength is at its limit.

However, the girl herself couldn't control her abilities. Whether it was strength, stamina, or superpowers, she could absorb them with a single touch, which made them useless to her. Apart from being pretty and a decorative vase, they were of no use at all.

However, he is not short of money now, and supporting a mutant is a piece of cake. What if he needs her in the future?
