Thunder

Brandon felt a sharp pain followed by burning in his right hand. His mind seemed to be agitated, but the ability "Cold Mind" was activated all the time.

[Cold Mind: A passive skill that allows the user to maintain composure and not be affected by mental or emotional attacks.]

Even with the active skill, his mind was in a mess. This was only a level 0 skill, so its effect was minimal in the face of the energy that suppressed him. But this little effect was enough to send some of his energy into his right hand.

Brandon tried to digitize his hand so that the core could pass through his hand and land on the floor, but to his surprise, the effect was totally different.

[Electric Core – Elemental Class…Getting Data]

[1%...5%...30%...70%...]

As his ability analyzed the core, he could feel its energy beginning to enter his body.

[Electrical core analyzed…]

[Could only get 1% sample]

[Using remaining power]

[Assimilated Thunder Element]

At that moment, the Core, still with a lot of energy, passed through his hand and fell to the ground, only with its color slightly diminished.

His mind began to recover, but it was still in total disarray. The messages that assaulted him, plus the suppression he felt from the core, made his head ache. Still, he was happy. His sacrifice was worth it. "Looks like I won't be one of the best god warriors anymore."

His elemental powers were some of the most powerful, having a wide variety of uses unlike most variants. He could also feel that his ability was easier to use, but he didn't have time to check it. He had to leave the area before the authorities arrived.

He looked at the ground and saw the core on the ground still with an energy that could suppress it without touching it.

He wondered how powerful the warrior was to have such a pure core. Thinking of this, he looked at the beast, analyzing what was the level of the beast to be able to do such damage to the city and kill such a person.

Suddenly, he heard some voices approaching, so he quickly turned around and started walking away from the area.

It was a waste not to take the beast's core. He could make a fortune, but he also couldn't stay and expose himself since he had a bag which might contain something valuable and was valuable itself.

Also, he could go through the same as with the previous core, but there was no guarantee that he would get anything. After all, it was the core of a beast and it was different.

Hiding behind a wall, he watched as several people in black suits approached the corpses. Further behind these, several spotted vehicles stopped alongside these people. He was surprised that the military arrived so quickly.

The only explanation would be that they used a teleporter, but it uses a lot of resources, so they were rarely used.

He remained hidden behind the wall and stopped watching for fear of alerting some entity with great perception. He didn't want to be questioned by the military. Plus, if they found out he had both elemental and variant powers, they'd take him in for investigation.

"Although there are people with various elemental powers, or more than one variant power, there is no anomaly like me."

*Crying eyes* "Who said that he would not be the best warrior of god? I take back what I said. This year he chose me as his number one chosen, I have no doubts."

His only hope was to wait for the military to leave the area in order to get out or quietly get out and mix with the refugees for relocation.

He decided on the second option since he did not want to stay longer in that place for fear of being discovered.

Turning around, he quietly went behind the wall without making much noise and decided to leave, but at that very moment a woman appeared in front of him. She had reddish hair, a dark vest, dark boots, and military pants.

"I thought that after watching for so long you would come and say hello," she said.

His heart skipped a beat and his pounding was almost audible. Looking at the woman, he waved a few his hands at her, hinting that he couldn't hear.

He tried to stay calm as much as he could. He couldn't get punished just for looking, so he wasn't completely intimidated by the woman.

Brandon looked into her eyes and felt as if his soul was going to come out of his body and run away at any moment. "Did I fall in love?" he thought.

At that moment, his ability "Cold Mind" took effect, causing him to come to his senses.

"How bad it is to be beautiful, I'm sure she used some ability to hypnotize me. Yes, that was it," he thoughtd. If the military woman could read his thoughts, it was certain that his days of life would end.

A small smile appeared on the woman's face. "Show me your ID and don't play dumb. Congenital diseases have been gone for over a century," she said.

"Damn, that was my best lie," he sighed as he answered.

"I lost my identification in the collapse of my house. I was only able to escape to avoid getting caught in the rubble."

She thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you look quite energetic. I'm sure you've trained a lot since you woke up. Come and help us. We need a lot of manpower."

"I don't have any power," he said as calmly as possible.

A small smile escaped the woman who took him by the shoulder.

"Oh, who are you kidding? I can feel energy coursing through your body. Why are you hiding your power?" she said as she grabbed him and led him away.

"Hello? Police? They're kidnapping me," he said to himself. Lying was the only thing he could do, but before he spoke, he heard the woman speak.

Dragging Brandon like he was a sack, the redheaded woman told him, "I'll take you with another group of refugee Superhumans to help us with the mobilization."

He was taken to where the group of soldiers was next to the corpse of the great eagle.

"They say that one returns to where he was happy. I promise not to rejoice in any other event in the future," he gritted his teeth.

"Don't create trouble or fight here or you will have big consequences to pay," said a soldier as he escorted him to the place where the other superhumans were gathered.

Many eyes were on the newcomer, and no one stopped to greet or receive him. They just looked from their place while others did not even flinch to look.

Entering the temporary camp that was made of truck barricades and some newly erected tents, he found a secluded spot and sat down to examine his new ability.

Looking at his panel, he could notice how his panel reflected the power of thunder in his state. In addition to the increase in energy and control.

He thought his control would increase more, but it seems that the more he adapts the less his points go up. In addition to a skill that brought with it the awakening of the thunder element.

[Lightning Manifestation Lv. 0: Allows the body or object to be imbued with the element of thunder. The attacks will have the effect of stunning and burning depending on the amount of energy used.]

Brandon realized that he could get stronger by getting more powers, but the problem lies in getting more powers. Also, he didn't know what the maximum capacity he could get was; therefore, he couldn't get any garbage.
