"This..."

Watching the surrounding sunlight twist, everyone within a kilometer showed expressions of shock and fear.

The scene was familiar, reminiscent of the time when an entire city was destroyed. For many, it was the first time witnessing Messiah use such a large-scale ability again.

If he successfully executed it, then...

Clearly, the next step would be sunlight appearing, and then they would all turn to ashes, vanishing without a trace!

"No!"

"Messiah, spare us!"

"Oh, God..."

Countless people on the ground looked desperate, begging Messiah to spare their lives.

Captain Marvel was also alarmed, recognizing what Messiah intended to do.

She knew she couldn't let him unleash that terrifying ability. If he did, not only would everything within the radius disappear, but she would also be in danger.

Her intuition sensed the imminent threat. If she allowed Messiah to proceed without evading, she might be in trouble! She understood that breaking through Messiah's defense in a short time was impossible; his defense was too bizarre.

There was only one way...

"Kid, let's end today's battle here. We'll continue this unfinished fight next time."

With that, Carol's body flashed with colorful light, and in the next moment, she appeared far away.

Like a meteor streaking across the sky, she quickly reached a distant location, clearly beyond a kilometer.

Two kilometers away.

"Messiah, this battle isn't over. We'll finish it next time."

Captain Marvel thought resolutely.

In her view, this abrupt end was due to the unsuitable battle location.

Fighting within the city easily endangered civilians. If they fought outside the city next time, the battle wouldn't end so easily!

Carol was confident that Messiah wouldn't be her match then. This confidence stemmed not only from her own strength but also from the countless battles she had fought and won in outer space over the years.

She had faced all kinds of enemies and always won; this time would be no different.

Carol thought confidently.

Far away.

Syd raised his eyes, watching Captain Marvel fly away without attempting to stop her.

Or perhaps Carol's decision to leave was also guided by him.

Otherwise, the Sunburst would have been activated long ago. They wouldn't think that during its activation, they would have time to ponder, hesitate, and think. (Sunburst sounds better...)

As long as Syd wanted, Sunburst could activate immediately, without any delay for thoughts.

As for why he guided Carol to leave, Syd had thought it through.

He wasn't sure what Carol's top speed was. Even earlier, it had been several times the speed of sound. Such speed would allow her to move a kilometer away in an instant when Sunburst activated.

If Sunburst activated and she escaped its range, and his light energy was too depleted from the attack, the situation would be dire.

This was why he guided Carol to leave.

Moreover, he found Captain Marvel somewhat tricky to handle.

With her speed, it was difficult for him to deal with her at his current strength. Forcing her to retreat would give him some time to grow stronger. "The feeling of being suppressed by speed is really uncomfortable." Syd shook his head.

He had thought his speed was fast enough. Even surpassing the speed of sound, he could still be suppressed.

And not just Captain Marvel; even Quicksilver's speed exceeded his.

"But..."

As he pondered, Syd thought of the Light Divine Power.

The Light Divine Power could enhance the intensity of other abilities. Currently, it was only at level one, yet it had already increased his flying speed significantly. As it improved, his floating speed would skyrocket.

Not only his floating speed but other abilities would also be enhanced!

The Light Divine Power was a versatile ability, currently the most crucial one to improve.

With it enhanced, his strength would continue to grow. When Carol returned, it wouldn't be so easy for her.

Thinking about improving the Light Divine Power, Syd glanced at the relieved people on the ground, then turned and flew away.

Boom! Hearing the sonic boom overhead, countless people on the ground sighed in relief. Many hugged each other, crying tears of joy. The feeling of being saved from near-death was indescribable.

Several satellites in space captured images of Messiah leaving.

"That woman just ran away?"

"Is Messiah really that terrifying? Keep fighting!"

A military officer watching the satellite feed grumbled.

At this point, a tall, thin officer beside him scoffed, "If Messiah wasn't terrifying and you weren't afraid, you should go. You've seen his Omega-level abilities. Anyone would run from that kind of power."

"Uh..." The officer felt embarrassed hearing this.

He had just made an offhand comment. Facing Messiah's terrifying Omega abilities, anyone would run. He would too if he could.

"In the end, we still didn't see who was stronger, that woman or Messiah..."

Both generals and ordinary officers felt a sense of regret.

Even though the woman ran away, they didn't think she had necessarily lost. Maybe next time, they'd know the outcome? While they speculated, footage of the event was soon uploaded online by people on the ground.

Though incomplete, the scenes of their battle shocked many.

Are they even human? These two are monsters, right? The battle's shockwaves alone sent chills down their spines.

People started to discuss.

"That woman is really strong. Has Messiah met his match?"

Unfortunately, the woman ran away, leaving them without a conclusion to the battle.

But from the looks of the fight, it seemed Messiah was slightly at a disadvantage?

If that's true...

Many eagerly anticipated the next battle, hoping to see Messiah defeated.

Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.

Watching the recorded footage, Charles Xavier's eyes showed a hint of worry.

Where did this powerful individual come from?
