Chapter 46 Ten million volts (Rewritten)

In front of an abandoned factory in the eastern port of Starling City, the two parties faced each other with guns. Frank and Anthony Venza engaged in an unpleasant discussion regarding the issue of 'cooperation'. Behind Frank, a car was parked with an Asian man inside, seemingly preoccupied and keeping a watchful eye on the surroundings.

"How long has it been?" Stephen impatiently asked Helena from the business car behind Frank.

Helena pondered for a moment. "I think it's been about twenty minutes."

"They've been at a standstill for over twenty minutes. Have the gangsters of today suddenly become civilized and polite?" Stephen couldn't help but complain.

Helena sneered with disdain and replied, "He couldn't refuse your request to bring me along, yet he doesn't want others to see me like this. He intended to use you in his plan to deal with Anthony Venza, but now he has to make adjustments. If you don't intervene, he's uncertain about successfully resolving the situation. That's why he's been in this stalemate for so long."

"I don't have much interest in waiting around." Stephen opened the car door and led Helena out, heading towards the confrontation.

The crowd gradually parted, making way for them. Frank had a sense of foreboding when he heard a voice from behind.

"Hey, isn't that your daughter?"

"Hahaha."

"Frank, is this the reason you dare to trouble me all of a sudden? You offered your own daughter as a companion, like a dog? How unfortunate. But can he handle it alone? Hahaha..." Anthony Venza recognized Helena immediately, and he also deduced why Frank had dared to instigate the conflict.

After the initial astonishment, an arrogant sneer spread across Anthony Venza's face, echoed by the gang members behind him.

Frank raised his gun, intending to kill Anthony Venza on the spot, but then he heard a low groan.

"You people are quite noisy!"

Stephen furrowed his brow and released the rope that was restraining Helena. A few seconds later, his entire body suddenly ignited with a dazzling electric current.

The crackling of the lightning was deafening.

[Unlimited stacking, one hundred times.]

Ten million volts of electricity!

In an instant, it felt as if there was only a vivid azure light encompassing the sky and the earth. Stephen pointed his hand towards the sky, and the electricity emanating from him transformed into thunder. The thunderous sound reverberated, penetrating the clouds and reaching the heavens above.

Silence! Utter silence!

A deathly silence enveloped the area.

Those who had been laughing before now stared at Stephen in shock. Their bodies, filled with electric energy, stood frozen, as if someone had pressed the pause button on them.

Tick. The sound of raindrops gradually dripped from above their heads, and the horrified onlookers gazed at Stephen in terror, as if awakening from a nightmarish dream.

"Fall!"

Stephen pointed his finger towards the factory behind Anthony Venza and his accomplices.

Boom!

A deafening explosion resounded through the sky as thunder descended from above and struck the factory with a devastating impact.

The roof was pierced instantly, followed by a series of explosions a few seconds later.

Flames erupted, engulfing the factory from the inside out.

The explosive force, combined with the electric shockwave caused by the thunder, created a powerful upheaval that swept through the surroundings.

For a prolonged moment, the rainfall gradually ceased, the blinding thunder vanished, and the entire factory turned into oblivion, leaving behind only remnants, still ablaze.

Surveying the scene, everyone, from Anthony Venza and his men to Frank himself, lay on the ground. The fortunate ones twitched slightly and foamed at the mouth, while the unlucky ones were electrocuted by the unleashed electric current.

Only Stephen stood tall like an unwavering tree.

"Alright, it's been quite some time. Wake up now," Stephen muttered to the fallen Frank. "Oi, are you dead or something? Don't you dare die on me. Get up, we still have unfinished business."

Frank panicked and shook his head subconsciously, only realizing what had happened after a long while. Stephen stood by his side.

With that in mind, Frank struggled to stand up, taking a few seconds before finally regaining his footing. He slowly walked towards Anthony Venza, who attempted to move his body upon seeing Frank's approach but was overcome by terror as his body failed to respond. Frank aimed his gun at him, sweeping away the anger he had been subjected to before, and spoke with determination, "I may have been willing to sacrifice my dignity, but failing to sell it at a good price is truly regrettable."

"And this is what one person can accomplish. You thought you had me, but you were wrong!" Frank exclaimed.

Bang!

Anthony Venza fell to the ground at the sound of gunfire.

The once proud Frank, his words caught in his throat, gazed at the nearly leveled factory, his face frozen, unable to utter a single word.

Stephen had no interest in listening to Frank's regrets. He pulled Helena along, their movements filled with a muted groan.

They got into the car.

Stephen started the engine and drove away.

Inside the car, Helena looked at Stephen and asked in a soft voice, "Was that your most powerful ability?"

"The most powerful? No, if I were to use my true power, it could potentially destroy the entire Earth." Stephen shook his head and chuckled.

In theory, there was no upper limit to his power. As long as it continued to accumulate infinitely, even a single punch could obliterate the planet.

Not long after Stephen and Helena left, chaos engulfed the East Port.

Police cars and fire trucks swiftly arrived at the scene. Once Frank disposed of Anthony Venza's body, he had to face questioning from the police. He recounted the events truthfully but concealed the fact that Stephen had summoned thunder and shot Anthony Venza himself.

Would the police believe him or not?

Ha ha.

Ultimately, there was no evidence, and the notion of summoning thunder was so incredible that no one would believe it unless they witnessed it with their own eyes.
