Ray didn't need the machines—his spatial perception far surpassed any CT scanner or MRI. And when it came to surgery, spatial severing allowed him to outperform even the greatest surgical masters.Suddenly, he paused mid-step.Molly stopped as well. "Something wrong… or did your shoelace come undone?"'Ha, she's teasing me.' Ray smiled. "There are living people here."Molly arched a sharp, commanding brow. "We're almost two months into the apocalypse. Do you think there's anything to eat in a hospital?"Ray considered for a moment. "There should be vending machines with some food and water. Electricity shouldn't be a problem either—a hospital always has generators. After the cataclysm began, if most of the hospital's power had been shut off, it could easily have run for two months, maybe even six.""How many people? Can you tell if any are superpowered?" Molly asked. Among the nine girls, she was the most alert."Seven," Ray replied. "Two men, five women. Whether they're superpo

"He… he's not an ordinary person!" The fat man suddenly blurted out, trembling as he backed away from Eugene. "He… he's like a superhuman! He can shoot lasers from his eyes!"'Whoa. That kind of ability exists too?' Ray raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised.Eugene's expression darkened as he glared at the fat man. "You traitor! How dare you betray me!""You've hurt too many people. I can't stand it anymore!" The fat man continued retreating, his voice shaking.Eugene sneered, fixing his gaze on Molly. "Beautiful, I suggest you don't get reckless—this traitor's right. I can fire lasers, and I guarantee I'll cut off your fingers before you even pull the trigger!"Losing a few fingers wouldn't stop me from playing with you… but dismemberment is just not elegant. So… put the gun down, obediently!"The five women nearby shivered violently.Ray smiled faintly. "No need to be afraid. Shoot him."Molly had hesitated for a moment, but at Ray's command, her hesitation vanished. Her inde

Seeing this, Molly raised her gun and fired at Jayden.Bang!The bullet shot out. Normally, the human eye couldn't track it—but to everyone's shock, they could see it.It slowed. They could see it decelerate.By the time the bullet reached Jayden's chest, it had come to a complete stop. Frost coated its surface, and under gravity, it plopped to the ground.What is extreme cold?It's the absence of energy. Even protons and electrons no longer move—that is absolute zero. Jayden's freezing didn't reach absolute zero, of course, but it was enough to strip the bullet of all its kinetic energy.Ray clicked his tongue in admiration. Same ice attribute, yes—but while Doug and Number 9 relied on raw offensive power, this fat man was completely different. He wielded cold itself to neutralize attacks. There was no commonality in approach."Keep going," Ray said to Molly.Where were the limits of Jayden's power? Could he freeze indefinitely?Bang bang bang!Shots rang out in rapid succe

"The ones who attacked us were led by that bitch Mary Harrison. Her faction occupied a hot spring hotel and coveted the supplies in our steel plant. They launched a surprise raid in the middle of the night—no declaration of war, no warning."We lost. Robert was killed by that bitch Mary!"That was when I damn well realized something—superpowers can be stolen!"No wonder Robert was so strong… but that bitch Mary was even stronger!"Eugene and I didn't dare fight anymore. We ran for our lives."Along the way, we pretended to be ordinary people and actually managed to infiltrate a few other groups. Eugene and I worked together and slaughtered them all. We had our fun, ate our fill… and in the end, we came here."Who would've thought? We escaped Mary, only to fall into your hands instead!"Ray was genuinely surprised. Two superpowered factions had already gone to war? And he hadn't heard a thing about it.Of course, there was no internet anymore. Even if a fierce battle erupted ten

When Ray and Molly returned, Ray's side effects of absorbing abilities flared up again halfway through the trip. As before, they were resolved without incident. By the time they reached the mansion, Molly's hair was slightly disheveled and her cheeks faintly flushed. She took a while to compose herself and cover it up.No one else noticed—but Jess had gone out with Ray just yesterday. She noticed it at once.Twisting her shapely hips, she sauntered over and deliberately sniffed at Molly. Covering her mouth, she laughed. "Oh my, such a strong scent of lust."Katie flew into a rage and rushed over to teach her a lesson. But Jess wasn't afraid at all. If Katie dared to strike, she would immediately fall into Ray's arms, making Katie look even worse.Before that could happen, Molly raised a hand and stopped her sister. Then she looked at Ray and said, "If I awaken an ability, can I ask you for a gift?""What gift?" Ray asked.Molly pointed at Jess. "I want to hang her up and beat her
