Shanghai -Cerebrum HQ

"What do you mean they're all dead?" inquired the high-ranking Cerebrum official from before, his face registering shock as he looked at the reports on his monitor.

They dispatched two ships with the mission to either eliminate the exceptionally powerful Gifted or at least buy enough time for the special team to catch up.

However, in just under an hour, reports streamed in that both ships had met their demise in a gruesome manner.

The scene on the satellite feeds was so horrifying that some viewers felt sick. The intensity of the situation went beyond the screen, leaving those watching disturbed by the scene.

As for their target ?

The boat they were pursuing had vanished from detection, leaving them baffled and without a trace to follow. .

He had underestimated the power of the individual they were dealing with, thinking he was still far from Zero.

But, examining his feats through satellite data revealed that they were, in fact, dangerously close.

And not just that, judging from the damage he caused, he was undoubtedly the new number one Gifted in Asia.

The top rank had remained unclaimed for decades since Zero stepped out of the limelight.

Now, a new player had emerged, and he seemed more psychotic than the other high rankers.

Intentionally destroying an army base, massacring soldiers in small camps, turning a ship into a human meat grinder—these were acts only a psychopath would commit.

He understood that higher Mind Power correlated with a certain level of madness, but this went beyond that.

It felt as though they were dealing with an individual who regarded human lives as nothing, reaching a level of disregard that surpassed mere madness.

The more unsettling part was realizing their target had a means to escape satellite surveillance from the start.

It dawned on him that all along, their target had intentionally revealed their position, luring them into a pursuit, only to turn the tables and unleash massacre upon massacre.

"Sir, what should we do now? I got message from the Main HQ" asked by one of the staff members.

The issue had escalated to an international level, with higher-ups from Cerebrum in the US and Europe seeking information about the identity of this powerful Gifted.

Questions arose regarding why the Asia branch had been unaware of such an individual freely roaming around.

These high-ranking individuals showed little concern when Zero escaped, presumably due to considering him old and weak.

However, their sudden interest in the current trouble maker indicated that they perceived the new ranker as a significant threat.

This was a big headache on their branch.

Unlike the other Cerebrum branches, the Asian Cerebrum branch found itself in a unique power structure.

In the US branch, the top 10 individuals were aligned with Cerebrum primarily because of the huge monetary compensation they received.

The appeal of substantial financial rewards served as a powerful incentive for these gifteds, drawing them into a cooperative relationship with Cerebrum.

In contrast, the Europe branch exhibited a different dynamic. The top 5 members collaborated with Cerebrum, not solely for monetary gain, but rather due to a mutual interest in preserving a lineage.

This shared goal created a bond that extended beyond monetary considerations, establishing a symbiotic relationship where both parties found value in maintaining a certain balance.

However, the Asian Cerebrum branch faced a different challenge.

In the context of Asia, the power structure within the Cerebrum branch took a distinctive turn.

The top 2-5 positions were held by leaders of their respective groups, with only the current rank 1 ,and 6-10 actively collaborating with Cerebrum.

Notably, Zero was excluded from this list due to his overwhelming power compared to those in the subsequent ranks.

'Is he even more powerful than Zero?' he muttered to himself .

This new player surpassed even Zero in terms of the number of abilities.

The capabilities displayed by this formidable individual included Telekinesis, the summoning of an ethereal giant monster, Invisibility, and the creation of a Magnetic field.

Beyond these impressive skills, the associates accompanying him were equally powerful.

The person with control over black holes, in particular, emerged as a formidable force, potentially even rivaling the position of the second strongest.

"What is happening here? Where did these monsters come from?" he gritted his teeth in annoyance.

If this group of lunatics were to reach South Korea, chaos would follow.

In the interest of humanity, the preservation of peace, and the pursuit of a better future, it became imperative to eliminate this threat once and for all.

"This is mind-blowing! This person is definitely from the Zillion Bloodline!" exclaimed a blonde woman with blue eyes, rocking a lab coat as she checked out the data in her tablet.

"Are you sure ? We're talking about the suspected creator of this world. You can't just claim that ," chimed in another person. She was in a lab coat too, a bit shorter, with japanese vibes, with black eyes and black hair.

"I'm telling you, Ayu, the detected DNA is at least 60% closer to Zillion DNA. Even the samples from Zero only got us 15%," the blonde woman added, their conversation revolving around the body of a woman trapped in ice they had discovered a few months ago in Antarctica.

Their department had been assigned the task of studying the discovered body, and finding someone with DNA close to Zillion DNA was a monumental discovery. In legends, Zillions were considered akin to gods—entities capable of bending reality itself.

"We need to report this , I'm sure we will get a bonus !" The blonde woman exclaimed, she was someone who loves money and glory.

"There's no need for that ," the Japanese woman replied.

Confused by her colleague's words, the blonde woman raised her eyebrows, intending to seek clarification.

However, before she could utter a word, the Japanese woman swiftly grabbed a pair of scissors and stabbed her in the neck.

"W --Why?" the blonde woman weakly asked as she tried to cover the wounds on her neck.

But it was no use.

*THUD!

She collapsed to the ground while slowly bleeding to death.

"This body is too weak," the Japanese woman's demeanor changed, as if she were an entirely different person altogether.

"At least , I'm finally awake after all those years," she added with a grin on her face.
