Chapter 90 - 90: Variant Uprising Takes Action

He kept his calm and reasoning since he realized that he couldn’t just break through with brute strength. The time it took to destroy the barrier using his Decaying powers also gave him the time to think about other things.

"Decaying doesn’t work on it. Lightning will be useless. Wind can’t help me here either. The healing is also of no use here. That only leaves my strength."

He stopped using his Decaying Power and placed all his focus on brute strength. He held two bars and started trying to bend them apart to make way for him to leave; however, he found it challenging. Even with all his strength, he wasn’t able to move them even an inch.

...

The carriage, in which Lucifer was trapped, was hanging to the helicopter in the middle through a wire rope.

The Delta Squad believed that there were only two people inside that helicopter. They thought that Cui and the pilot were the only two inside, not knowing how wrong they were.

At the back seat of the helicopter, the dead body of a young man was lying. A knife was stabbed in his chest. It looked as if someone pierced his heart from close proximity, and he couldn’t even resist as he died.

Just a few steps away from him lay another dead body. The second dead body seemed to be of a bearded middle-aged man that was lying on the floor.

His throat was sliced, and he was bleeding. The floor was covered in the blood of the man who was wearing a white uniform that was covered in blood.

According to Delta Squad, only two people of their team were in this helicopter; however, both of them were dead, raising a question. Who was flying the plane?

On the seat of the pilot, a man was sitting. The man also had a black beard, and he seemed to be in his middle age as well.

Surprisingly, the man seemed precisely like the middle-aged man that was lying dead on the floor. In fact, both of them had a mole on their right cheek at exactly the same location. Their faces were also identical.

The man that was piloting the helicopter had a grin on his face as he looked at the screen ahead of him, which was showing the visuals of the cage.

"I thought he would be a kid who doesn’t know how to use his powers, and I was right. He really needs training. The strength he showed wasn’t bad. If he is like that when he is so young and inexperienced, then he would be an absolute beast."

The man seemed to be talking to himself.

"If he grows up and gets proper training, he can be an absolute beast. No wonder Vega placed so much importance on the kid, even going as far as sending our Level 1 team here to bring him back from the grasps of APF," he said as he looked at the screen in front of him where Lucifer could be seen struggling to bend the bars.

A clever smirk graced his lips as he let out, "I feel like laughing at Isona and the others who are waiting at the Facility, thinking that the kid will attack there. I didn’t expect him to actually come here instead of going there for revenge. Either he doesn’t know the directions, or someone lied to him about the location."

"Now, time to get back to work. It wasn’t easy getting so far. Time for the real action to begin."

His face started changing as his beard started disappearing. His rounder face started becoming slender while beautiful hair started growing on his bald head. His height also started decreasing. His body proportions also became more slender as his muscles began shrinking.

It only took a few seconds before he started looking like a completely different person.

"I hate camouflaging as bearded men. It’s so much more comfortable now," the man pondered as he rubbed his clean chin.

He brought his phone out of his top pocket and called a number.

"We are coming in that direction. Is everything ready?"

"Yes, captain. We are in position. Everything is ready. We will blow up both the helicopters leaving only the center one intact. Everything will be according to plan."

"Good. We should be there in ten minutes. Be prepared with rocket launchers and take quick action before they see you. I don’t want anything to go wrong."

"Yes, Leader."

Beep Beep

A beep resounded in the man’s ears at the moment the call was disconnected.

He dialed a different number.

"Vega," he said after the call was picked up.

After a brief pause, the person on the other side answered, "Yeah, Caen. What is it?"

"I got the kid you wanted. I am bringing him back to the base," Caen answered as his fingers tapped on the back of his phone, creating a little noise.

"Can you stop making that annoying sound?" Vega said softly.

"Anyway, you did well. Your contribution is very significant. As the leader of Level One of Variant Uprising, you and your team will get plenty of rewards for this achievement. Just make sure that you bring back the kid safely. We don’t want someone like that to dislike us."

Vega seemed more cautious when talking about Lucifer, understanding how important he was to the organization.

Caen had also started to understand why the higher-ups wanted the kid after seeing his performance.

"I know. I saw that kid’s battle. He really does have the potential. If he is able to grow properly, he can even get as strong as Raia and stand at the peak of this world," Caen explained as he nodded in agreement.

"He really can. Even his father was so strong that he could cause earthquakes with his power. His thunder could kill even the most ferocious of monsters. It was an absolute nightmare to confront him."

"The kid has even more powers than his father had. He’s clearly going to be another monster. As long as we handle him with care, we can use him. It’s as if Zale Azarel was working for us."
