I got a pretty good amount of levels from that bear. Except that I don't fully understand how my new skill works and what it does. No, I have ideas, but they're pretty crazy. Can you tell me something about the skill?
It's the ultimate mental skill
It worked, suspicions are growing... and while you're at it, can you give me a rundown on the new feature?
You've killed your first energy creature. The system can automatically absorb the energy generated by the death of such creatures. The system can also absorb the energy generated by the death of physical creatures, but such creatures have a too rapid decay of their energy shells, which makes it inefficient and would only give 1-2 experience points in return if the user's internal reserve is wasted. But when killing so-called mutants, the user can get more significant amounts of experience, the main thing that the death came because of the force of the flame and the user at that moment had direct contact with the victim.
Now that's an interesting one. I wouldn't say that going after invaders is that much fun, but getting faster is a pretty strong motivator. Especially since I know at least three dimensions where you can meet a lot of energy plane enemies without the possibility of losing contact with the earth. At least in the temple of New York there is a door leading to just such a dimension. Quite an unpleasant place by the description, strongly smelling like hell, but the level of danger is just perfect for me. But for now, let's put aside thoughts of future grind locations and get back to the teenagers.
As I exited the building, I saw the five current test subjects. A blonde 19 year old with dark eyes and a cloth dragon toy in her hands Ulyana Rasputina is the sister of a steely acquaintance of mine. Tall guy 21 years old with short cropped dark hair and Italian roots Roberto De Costa. A simple American 20-something kid, of which there are millions in the country, but this one had one of the worst fates of all, Sam Guthrie. Well and a young couple, consisting of lost all their relatives dark-haired brown-eyed nineteen-year-old Dani Moonstar and her girlfriend grew up only in the walls of the church green-eyed eighteen-year-old brown-haired girl height of only one and a half metres Renee Sinclair.
-Why are we here? /Why did we have to wait for you? /Did you make sure there were no faceless people? /Hi. - As Pierce approached, he was immediately confronted with a list of questions from the nervous teenagers.
-Stop! -You're here because I had to make sure all the demons in the area were wiped out, and I'd feel more comfortable checking the buildings knowing that all the residents were outside. It would also greatly increase your fighting power in case of a demon attack in my absence. Now I checked the entire building and made sure there were no mystical creatures inside and... hello? - Pierce was surprised at the questioning greeting he got back.
-And now what? Are we free? - Roberto asked.
-Sort of.
-What do you mean, sort of? - Uliana frowned.-All in all, kids, I went through your doctor's files and you have only a few options for further development of events. - To the disgruntled faces of a couple of teenagers I voiced my thoughts. And the fact that my appearance makes me look four to five years old doesn't give me the right in their eyes to address them with a patronising tone. I wonder what would happen if they knew that most of the people here are older than I am.
-The first option is to go to a real school where the X-Men live and learn. I have contacts with the creator of the school and you'd be welcome there. From the pluses of this option I can note a good atmosphere, a lot of children with the same peculiarities and similar problems and the lack of energy fields over the school, although to be honest I think that there they would be just as good. The downside of this option is that it's impossible for Ulyana and Dani.
-Why is that? - Miss Rasputin gave me a disgruntled look. Dani also wanted to know the answer, but also aggressively responded to her character did not allow her.
-Your predilection for solving problems in the simplest and most radical way is not honoured there. You don't think that I'm against it, no I'm in favour of it, but I know a couple of "happy" events, when such "right" people following their vision after sparing the enemy paid with a lot of pain. But Professor X is not a fan of such ideas, and he's in charge. Although I'm honestly kind of glad about that. Still, he is a very strong mutant telepath... in general, from the team of X's almost no one is able to finish the enemy. That's just an FYI. I'd encourage you to come in and take a look around, though. See your brother. - Smiling at the knocked-out girl and at the teenagers who were loaded with the prospect of wheelchair training, Pierce continued. -Dani, on the other hand, is not allowed to study at that school because of the problems caused by her powers. After looking at the camera footage and comparing it to the bear I saw, I can come up with a pretty logical theory about your powers. You have the makings of a telepath, but your powers are somehow selectively attuned to the nightmares of the people around you. And if your powers ended at simple telepathy that wouldn't be a problem, but as we see around you, that's not all. You have control over the energy around people. And from what I can see, even a conduit to the cosmic supply. From all this energy you instinctively following the learned nightmares create energy-constructs with written down behavioural personal matrix, but because of underdevelopment of your telepathic powers you cannot make these constructs work and execute the commands written into them. That's why your forces at creation of such bodies most likely started to emit a certain call for the energy-life of this world, which having its own intelligence and habits occupied the role of a brain in your dolls. In time such creatures would most likely get out of control and would cease to fulfil the functions inscribed in them, and having got their own energy-body capable of interacting with the physical world would begin to cause good destruction. But as I see all your previous crafts did not have time to live long, and 8-10 hours of sleep is not enough to re-subordinate the bodies created by you. So I hope you've realised your powers, you've begun to guess why staying in a school where every third child and teenager got there not because of a good life and has a good stock of psychological traumas and nightmares is a bad idea for you. - Looking at the saddened Dani I said.
-The second option is to work for me. I own a pretty good company and have good connections, like the reactor to Stark's new suit came from my help. Somehow I'm not gonna play noble. Even though you don't hang around in the realms of big money, even so you should realise that none of the million and billion dollar businesses are completely legal or right. These are pretty chaotic times right now and the number of masked people and various supervillains is growing at an insane rate. And I've been thinking for a while now about a pretty good PR move to help mutants and superheroes. You've only spent a couple of months in the confines of this children's concentration camp, so you must have heard about Spider-Man and his drastic change for the better before then. The accoutrements, the costume, the information. Spidey started working for me and his heroics went from the death-defying antics of a pretty good acrobat to a coherent service to the city. Now getting injured, which with his new suit is difficult, but given some of the psychos still possible he can count on the best doctors and the help of the most expensive drugs. So where am I going with this...right, I need a team of superheroes to act on behalf of my company and looking at you I see that I'm definitely suited for Uliana and Roberto. Sam needs six to twelve months to master his powers at a weak level, Dani logically has the most killing potential of all of you, but I can't give you a timeline for her training. And I haven't forgotten about you Rane, but you must realise that your mutation is not the best and you are not nearly combat ready, but if you agree to come to me I can give you another power similar to mine. You'll get the same fighting form and become several times stronger. If you come to me you can expect to be better provided for, a salary unlike the X-Men and doctors who are always ready to help after heroic deeds. You'll follow your dreams and desires and get paid for it, and I'll earn a reputation and do good things for the world.
-And of course, there's one last option. You can just go wherever the hell you want. But let me remind you that only Ulyana will be able to escape in case of an attack by those who created this "school" and she can be easily knocked out from a distance. Also your parents, relatives and acquaintances are most likely already under surveillance and the big bosses after the loss of communication only once will try to hold the capture of escaped guinea pigs. After the first failure you will be immediately written off and sent liquidators. - Having finished describing their bright future I sat down on a piece of wall and waited for their decision.
