Day 148 - 12:19 PM - Factory Area, Rebels Base, San Pablo Poblacion, Municipality of Viga, Catanduanes

The arrival of their faction leader boosted the remaining rebels' morale. Although they were still keeping a safe distance, they already stopped on their tracks. Aiming their guns at Mark, they were ready to fire at once the order dropped.

Furthermore, as time passed, more and more of the rebels arrived to subdue the single intruder present before them.

At this point, with Mark at the center, it almost looked like a scene from an old Chinese war movie surrounding the enemy army's general.

However, as the situation around him worsened, the more Mark felt satisfied.

After all, it was all according to plan.

To eliminate the majority of these rebels, Mark would not take too much time. He had an arsenal of abilities that he could use to kill them all, but he was stalling for time instead.

Mark ignored the question of Emellynn, and his eyes fell on a person standing at a scaffolding not far behind the rebel leader.

According to the descriptions, that man should Felix, the right-hand man of Emellynn.

However, Mark was sure that he felt that this guy was with the man that Vanessa spoke to after he delivered the package last night.

It was strange considering that Felix was here when he was also present at the Military Settlement the previous evening.

The distance between the Catanduanes Military Settlement and this base was not small. It was more than thirty kilometers away. The way would be dangerous, and there were mountains between the two places. It would be impossible to traverse that distance in a single night. It was unless they could fly.

However, Mark was sure. Felix was not a Mutator to be capable of that. Maybe, they had other means of doing so.

Suddenly, Felix smiled. It seemed that he could tell that Mark was staring at him despite the mask Mark was wearing.

Mark could only frown, unable to shake the eerie feeling towards this ”human.” Furthermore, did their group plant their members on every faction on this island? Vanessa was beside General Padilla, and this Felix was here. It was not hard to assume that they also did the same with other factions and organizations.

”Not paying attention, are we?” Emellynn spoke with a cold voice. ”If you don't want to answer, then DIE!”

With a loud shout and a deafening crackle, Emellynn charged towards Mark.

With the chirping of a thousand birds, surging streaks of electricity covered Emellynn's arms, forming a long blade as she swiped at Mark.

CRASH!

The sound of crashing glass echoed as Mark crossed his arms, blocking both blades from reaching both sides of his neck. The impact was not anyone could shrug off as the cemented ground below Mark's feet cracked horribly.

After seeing her lightning blades shatter, Emellynn's eyes dilated. She immediately jumped backward with a deep frown on her golden eyebrows. Although she heard about what happened last night from Felix, she never thought it would be like this. The enemy did not even flinch from her attack!

Mark, on the other hand, stood on position once more. He was shaking his hand due to numbness. Sure enough, an almost [Level 4] Mutator was seriously on another level. His arms' bones could have shattered if he received this very same attack a few days ago. Of course, since it was Mark, it would not be a problem. His arms would start healing immediately. However, it would still feel horribly painful.

Fortunately, he already absorbed those crystals.

Still, it was quite surprising. For some reason, Emellynn's mutation gave the same vibe as Karlene's. It was very unique. And if following science, far more impossible compared to other Mutator Abilities.

Karlene's ability were claws that seem to slice through anything on a molecular level. When she transformed, her hair would turn glowing purple, flowing like it was unaffected by gravity.

Emellynn, on the other hand, seemed to be able to solidify lightning. And her transformation also looked a bit similar, with the color of her hair as an exception.

Mark raised his head, looking at the leader of this faction of the rebels. Now, he assessed that it would be hard for her to do anything to him. As such...

”My turn?”

Mark said with a playful tone.

Emellynn clearly heard that and took a defensive stance.

And then, Mark vanished from Emellynn's sight.

Emellynn immediately raised her guard, waiting for the incoming attack.

But then...

”AHHHH!!!”

With a loud crackle and splatter of blood, Mark was already in the middle of the rebels, killing without mercy.

”SH*T! YOU SON OF A B*TCH! I'M YOUR OPPONENT!”

Emellynn roared, chasing after Mark.

The rebel leader reached Mark's position and released another attack using her blades of solidified lightning.

This time, however, Mark did not stop to catch her attack.

Mark kicked the ground, moving faster than most people could follow. The lightning blades did not hit anything.

Emellynn landed on her feet, immediately looking for the enemy. It was not hard to find Mark, though, as everyone only needed to follow where the cries of death were coming from.

The frustrating cat and mouse chase began, with the supposed mouse slaughtering the subordinates of the cat.

None of them noticed that Mark was deliberately moving the battle away from the warehouse.

Renz watched the spectacle with hate and envy. Both Mark and Emellynn were showing abilities impossible in the realm of humanity. He, on the other hand, only had these fur-covered arms and feet. It did enhance his abilities as a human, but he was too far to be called inhuman.

”TSK!” Renz clicked his tongue and signaled for his loyal men to gather. ”Prepare the rockets.”

”Boss, are we doing it now? ”

Renz's right-hand man called Caleb asked. He was that Mutator with detection ability. It was a reasonable question. Using rockets inside the base was a risky action, after all. Not to mention that the intruder was currently fighting against their faction leader. They were in the middle of the rebel army.

”It can't be helped.” Renz reasoned. ”It might be risky but it's also a good opportunity.”

After hearing those words, Renz's men began to move. First, they retreated away from the center of the battle as stealthily as possible.

While Renz's group retreated, one of his men started to whistle. However, his whistle did not seem to be heard by everyone at all. Instead, it was another division of the rebels on standby that heard it clearly.
