The girl gave a soft snort, focused on driving, and stopped talking.

Seeing that she was embarrassed and angry, he remained silent.

Ron then closed his eyes to rest, summarizing his current abilities in his mind.

Let's leave aside basic abilities like strength and physique for now.

In addition to these superpowers, he also possesses super healing abilities, telepathy, spider-sense, and the ability to control static electricity on his body.

..

As for the ability factor of the retractable bone claw, Ron has not yet copied it.

This ability is pretty useless; it's just a variety of weapons.

He also doesn't like to make his appearance look strange.

..

Of all the abilities.

What surprised Ron the most was...

It was acquired from Charles's mental abilities.

Because of this ability, his spider senses also became much stronger.

The spider senses, which were originally only used passively, are now able to actively sense subtle things in the surroundings, somewhat like the function of divine sense.

Such as now.

Ron could see a small water stain on the back of Skye's seat that hadn't been wiped clean...

Ahem... It seems that choosing Professor X as the primary target for replication was indeed the right decision.

A strong mental force can indeed influence many things.

...

Let's talk about self-healing factors...

then.

After the symbiote on Lara completes its replication.

Ron assessed the strength of his self-healing and found that it had only increased slightly.

To verify the hypothesis.

He also temporarily transferred the symbiote from Charles to Logan and copied Wolverine's healing factor, but the increase in his abilities was even weaker.

This led Ron to a conclusion:

The ability to replicate similar genes from different people can enhance one's abilities to a certain extent.

However, this increase will decrease as the number of convergent genes increases, until it has almost no effect.

The higher the degree of convergence, the faster the effect will be lost.

To put it simply, it is —

If you get the same character in a gacha pull, you can only use them as materials to dismantle.

Moreover, this material will become increasingly scarce as the number of repetitions increases.

(PS: Hopefully, this explanation is clear.)

Chapter 38 A Hero's Purpose, a Cool Girl

...

Bah!

The RV's tires rolled over the dirty ground, splashing up a puddle of sewage.

Skye, in the driver's seat, also became slightly more cautious.

We've now fully entered the Hell's Kitchen area.

It's no exaggeration to say that eating bullets here is more common than eating breakfast.

She wouldn't have come to this place if there weren't traffic police stopping cars here.

..

And just then.

"Ok?"

While Ron was lost in thought, he suddenly realized something.

He looked up and muttered to himself, "Hell's Kitchen lives up to its name. Something like this happening in broad daylight... The locals are truly honest and kind..."

"what are you talking about?"

Seeing Ron muttering to himself, Skye assumed he was worried about the safety of the area.

Think so.

The girl gave him a warm smile and comforted him, "Don't be afraid. Even if we encounter danger, I'll protect you with the armor you gave me."

"Good girl, I've done my best to spoil you."

Ron was also a little touched by what he heard, and pointed ahead with a smile, saying, "However, you don't need to protect me. Just slow down when you pass the fork in the road ahead."

"Slow down...why?"

Just as Skye was wondering what was going on, she heard a lewd and arrogant voice coming from ahead—

"Hey beautiful! Want to hang out with us?"

.....

...At the fork in the road ahead, in the alley on the left.

"Hey beautiful, wanna have some fun with us? We guarantee you'll be in heaven!"

Several gangsters, armed with guns and leering, blocked a girl's path and gradually surrounded her.

What they want to do is self-evident.

The girl whose path was blocked had beautiful black hair, wore tight jeans, a white T-shirt, and a black jacket, and her dark eyes revealed a hint of gloom.

Facing several approaching gangsters.

She showed no fear whatsoever.

Instead, I moved my wrists around a bit.

It seems they're about to take action...

"What, you still want to resist? Can't you see the guns we're holding!"

Several gangsters scoffed, raised their guns, and threatened, "If you dare to be disrespectful, after we're done with you, we'll sell you to the red-light district!"

"Hey, take off your clothes nicely, so we don't have to bother you!"

"That's right, it's best to sit on it and move around yourself! Haha!"

The men laughed loudly, completely disregarding the cool girl.

One of them even put down his gun and started loosening his belt...

Kaka-

The black-haired girl's fair forehead throbbed with veins as she listened, and her fists clenched tightly.

Her muscles were tense, and she took a step forward in her black boots, ready to beat these people until they couldn't take care of their lower bodies!

But at this very moment—

wen....

An open-door motorhome slowly drove past the alley entrance.

It attracted the attention of both girls and men.

..

Hello, everyone.

Facing everyone's gaze.

Ron smiled.

I saw.

He put his fingers together.

Pointing to his temple.

He uttered a soft sound: "—pen~"

[? ? ? ]

The gangsters immediately looked at him like he was an idiot.

[Is this some kind of mentally challenged person who escaped from a mental hospital?]

However, the moment the thought crossed their minds, they uncontrollably raised their hands and pointed guns at their own heads...

[No! No! No...! ...

A look of terror flashed in each pair of eyes.

He could only watch helplessly as the finger pulled the trigger...

boom! !

boom!

boom! !

Several consecutive, rhythmic gunshots rang out in the alley.

This went unnoticed by anyone.

The people who live here are used to it...

...

at the same time.

The RV drove past the fork in the road.

Ron calmly lowered his fingers.

have to say.

If we use this mental ability to purge criminals.

Among superheroes, there is probably no one more efficient than him.

after all.

It was just a matter of a single thought.

Unfortunately, he wasn't interested in being a superhero.

They'll just do something to defend themselves when they see injustice.

He can only be considered a hero at best, a hero who acts out of interest.

...

Wait until the car is far away.

Skye was still shaken by the gunshot and gave Ron a reproachful look: "You told me to slow down, and we almost got cornered by the gangsters who were robbing us."

She, who was driving, clearly hadn't seen the situation at the alley entrance clearly.

Ron turned to look at her and teased, "Didn't you say you would protect me?"

"It would be best if we could avoid taking action..."

I haven't tried on your suit yet, so who knows how effective it is in practice?
