Chapter 88: Finding Stryker

After the portal reached level 4, it could already traverse dimensions and travel to parallel universes.

At this moment, Alex could sense the existence of other universes, and as long as he opened a portal, he could enter those parallel universes!

In addition to crossing dimensions and traveling through them, the level 4 portal unlocked other abilities!

Now, Alex could perform spatial teleportation within his current dimension even without coordinates. He could go straight to where Stryker was and kill him at any time! The maximum size of the portal he could open had also expanded dramatically; it could even fit a mountain!

More importantly, he could now, by consuming a large amount of energy, create a portal that could be maintained for a long time. Unlike the ordinary portals that required a constant supply of energy to stay open, this new portal consumed energy stored within itself. As long as that energy wasn't depleted or destroyed by external forces, the portal could remain open indefinitely!

After absorbing all the knowledge, Alex opened a portal and checked the system panel:

[Name: Alex]

[Templates: Gojo Satoru (fully integrated), Accelerator]

[Energy Absorption lv5 (56/20000): Can absorb almost all forms of energy within a 20-meter radius. Absorption rate and storage capacity are extremely high, allowing near-complete control over all forms of energy within a 10-meter radius!]

[Six Eyes lv4 (167/5000): Provides 360-degree long-distance vision, the ability to see energy flow, extraordinary dynamic vision, and x-ray vision, allowing for extremely precise energy manipulation.]

[Cursed Technique Lapse "Blue" lv4 (134/5000): Creates a powerful attraction force, reducing the distance between multiple objects to "negative infinity," generating a small black hole.]

[Reverse Cursed Technique lv4 (781/5000): Converts the negative energy of cursed energy into positive energy, providing strong healing capabilities, restoring objects to their original state, usable on both living and non-living things!]**

[Cursed Technique Reversal "Red" lv4 (124/5000): Generates repulsion centered on "Red." The minimum power is twice that of "Blue," and its maximum output approaches infinity, akin to a small supernova!]

[Limitless Technique: Infinity lv4 (3/5000): Interferes at the atomic level, manipulating space; objects slow down the closer they are to the user, becoming unable to touch the user, granting partial control over space!]

[Imaginary Technique "Purple" lv2 (10/300): Combines Cursed Technique Reversal "Red" and Cursed Technique Lapse "Blue" to form imaginary mass, releasing an energy wave capable of cutting through space, allowing limited control over imaginary mass!]

[Unlimited Void lv1 (36/100): Pulls the opponent into the inner side of Limitless, forcing their brain to perform countless repetitions of "perception" and "transmission," generating a flood of useless information that renders the brain nonfunctional, leaving them standing, waiting to die. Only those who have been touched by the host are unaffected!]

[Vector Manipulation lv1 (8/100): Controls the direction of most vectors, creating fictional vector axes, including force, velocity, acceleration, displacement, impulse, momentum, electric field intensity, magnetic induction intensity, etc.!]

[Unknown Wings - Black lv1 (12/100): Manipulates phase power in space, forming black wings that greatly enhance the user's strength!]

[Unknown Wings - White lv1 (14/100): Manipulates phase power in space, forming perfect white wings that greatly enhance the user's strength!]

[Portal lv4 (35/5000): Consumes magic power to open a portal to any dimension/universe location. Magic power can be substituted with energy!]

[Mirror Dimension lv1 (12/100): Creates a temporary spatial dimension isolated from reality, where anything that happens inside does not affect reality!]

[Template Integration: 20%]

[Energy Points: 888888]

Alex poured all his energy points into the Accelerator template, raising the integration level to 28%.

According to Alex's estimation, when the template integration reaches 40%, he will gain a new skill

Looking at the extensive list of skills, Alex felt a strong sense of satisfaction. All of these abilities were hard-earned, achieved through his own efforts

Focusing on "Energy Absorption lv5," he realized that reaching this level brought him into an entirely new realm.

At the same time, Alex received some information about reaching "lv6." Once energy absorption reaches lv6, he would be able to perform mass-energy conversion, turning matter into energy or vice versa. This is akin to the ability to create objects out of thin air, almost like the power of a creator god.

At that point, he would never lack energy, freely traveling across dimensions without fear of his abilities failing due to world rules.

However, reaching "Energy Absorption lv6" would take a long time. Not only because the experience required for leveling up had increased several times, but also because the difficulty of gaining experience had similarly multiplied!

Yet, with the system, Alex was confident he could raise "Energy Absorption" to lv6 or even higher!

Once he had fully adapted, Alex smiled broadly. It was time to have a little talk with dear Colonel Stryker.

With a mere thought, a karmic link between Alex and Colonel Stryker manifested, and a portal appeared before him!

Alex stepped through.

Emerging from the portal, he found himself in a swamp, dense underbrush concealing everything from sight; even a trained soldier would hardly notice anything amiss!

However, any disguise was useless before the Six Eyes. Alex could directly see the massive military base hidden beneath the swamp and a middle-aged, sinister-looking man deep inside the base—Colonel Stryker himself!

He sensed the constantly vibrating space around him and the mutant-suppressing devices in operation. These were the things preventing him from entering the base directly, but it didn't matter; all this struggle only delayed Stryker's death!

Extending his index finger, a red and white singularity formed at its tip, and terrifying repulsion radiated from it, destroying everything around it!

Shrubbery and the swamp were immediately annihilated, revealing the outer walls of the military base!

Even though the red and white singularity had yet to be released, the sturdy metal walls were already beginning to crumble!

Cursed Technique Reversal "Red"

...

As Alex appeared, alarms blared throughout the military base, warning everyone inside that the demon had arrived!

In the deepest part of the base, in the command room, Colonel Stryker turned to Mr. Fantastic and asked, "Dr. Reed, what's going on?"

Hearing the alarms, Mr. Fantastic's face changed dramatically, quickly pulling up footage from the external cameras.

The scene captured by the cameras was nothing like its initial state; everything had been destroyed. The hidden military base and all its meticulously arranged camouflage were utterly useless!

High in the sky, the "White-Haired Mutant" floated in mid-air, a red and white singularity rapidly forming at the tip of his index finger, radiating a terrifying energy and unstoppable repulsion force!
