As The Only Mutant in Marvel

Boom!

In the living room, the red devil, now wearing a crocodile-shaped costume, was teleporting back and forth, trying to bite the long tail trailing behind it.

Lance sat on the couch, ignoring the stupid dog's antics.

"System, grant Energy Absorption Ability to this tube of medicine in my hand—remember, the medicine inside, not the syringe!"

He held a syringe filled with saline solution, harmless and safe for injection.

A faint red glow appeared in Lance's palm, sinking into the needle.

Within seconds, the clear saline turned a faint red, like diluted blood.

"System, what's the compatibility of this potion with my dog?"

"70%," the system responded.

"Only seventy?" Lance frowned.

A 30% failure rate was too high.

While the dog sometimes annoyed him, he didn't actually want it to drop dead from a genetic collapse.

"Forget it."

Lance sighed, placing the syringe in a secure box before storing it in his personal dimensional space.

"Ding~! Successfully granted the target item Sebastian Shaw's Energy Absorption Ability. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a thousand times strengthened Energy Absorption Ability!"

"What?"

Lance jumped off the couch, his heart pounding.

"A thousand times? Are you sure, system?!"

Silence.

But he wasn't hearing things—he knew it was real.

A thousand times strengthening!

This wasn't just a lucky draw—it was a jackpot!

Even if it meant burning up all his luck for the foreseeable future, Lance would gladly accept it.

Sebastian Shaw's Energy Absorption was already an overpowered ability, but now, strengthened a thousand times, its potential was almost unimaginable.

Lance could hardly contain his excitement as he pulled up the system interface to confirm the results.

Lance's eyes zeroed in on the highlighted ability.

A thousand times strengthening!

There was no mistake.

"Holy shit, this is insane…"

The Energy Absorption Ability was already Alpha-level, but with this kind of boost, it might as well be Omega-level now!

Normal mutants had to spend years developing their abilities to reach their full potential, but Lance's system shortcut had catapulted him straight to god-tier power.

What's more, it would only get stronger as he continued to level it up.

Even at Level 2, the ability's output was equivalent to Level 5—or higher!

Smiling, Lance clenched his fist and punched himself lightly in the chest.

Nothing.

The kinetic energy was absorbed instantly, leaving no impact.

"Not bad… but let's push it further."

He glanced at the red devil, still chasing its tail.

"Hey, Red Devil! Come here!"

With a pop and a puff of red smoke, the dog teleported to Lance's side, wagging its tail expectantly.

"Bite me!"

The dog tilted its head in confusion.

Instead of biting, it started licking Lance's palm, tail wagging furiously.

"Not lick—bite!"

The dog refused, continuing to lick him affectionately.

"Forget it. You're useless."

Lance waved it away, watching it teleport off to chase its tail again.

Turning serious, Lance headed to his armory, sealing the soundproofed doors behind him.

He picked up a pistol, loaded it with his enhanced magazine holding over 1,500 rounds, and pointed it at his palm.

Bang!

The bullet hit—but instead of piercing his skin, it fell harmlessly into his hand, completely intact.

He fired again.

Same result.

It was as if the bullets were bouncing off rubber.

"Guns are useless now," Lance said, grinning.

He moved on to knives, blunt objects, and even an electric stun baton.

Nothing worked.

Everything was absorbed effortlessly.

It was as if he had become immune to damage entirely.

After finishing the tests, Lance leaned back against the armory wall, letting out a satisfied breath.

"This is it. I'm invincible."

His grin widened as the reality of his newfound power sank in.

With Energy Absorption strengthened a thousand times, he could face bullets, explosions, and even lasers without a scratch.

And if anyone tried to take him down, they'd just be feeding him more energy.

There was no stopping him now.
