Starting as a Class Five Mutant

Chapter 375: Chapter 375



Syd's divine physique could withstand most forms of damage, including direct hits from missiles. Of course, a nuclear blast of significant magnitude might be a different story.

Shaking off the thought, Syd refocused on the Ten Rings in his hand, his initial interest waning.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The divided power of the Ten Rings, split across ten pieces, seemed unimpressive to him. If the rings could combine their power into one, they might have caught his attention.

While Syd casually evaluated the rings, the expressions of those below-Xu Wenwu, his black-clad followers, and the villagers of Taro-were a stark contrast.

Xu Wenwu stared in disbelief.

"My Ten Rings... he just took them?"

The overwhelming power of the Ten Rings had been his source of unshakable confidence. For centuries, these artifacts had been the key to his victories, and he had believed they could even rival gods.

When Hela described her brother as a monster, Xu Wenwu had dismissed it, trusting the rings to give him the power to defeat and subdue anyone.

But now, in an instant, he had been rendered helpless, the rings forcibly taken from him.

"This is impossible... a monster, truly a monster..."

For the first time, Xu Wenwu understood why Hela referred to her brother as a destroyer of all.

His followers were equally shaken.

Their leader, equipped with the Ten Rings, had been defeated in an instant by the man floating in the air. The very artifacts they had trusted to ensure victory were now gone.

Hela's description of her brother as a monster no longer seemed like an exaggeration.

The villagers of Taro, too, were stunned.

"Xu Wenwu lost?"

"The Ten Rings were taken?"

They knew the power of the Ten Rings well. To see them so easily overcome left them speechless.

Meanwhile, Hela narrowed her eyes, her suspicion growing as she watched Syd's actions.

With a wave of her hand, she summoned a barrage of radiant weapons, which shot toward Syd like lightning. Simultaneously, a powerful white energy erupted from her, illuminating the area and surging toward him.

In the blink of an eye, the onslaught was upon Syd.

Yet, with just a subtle motion of his right hand, crimson energy formed a barrier that effortlessly intercepted the weapons and energy wave.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions of light and sound filled the air as the shockwaves sent those on the ground stumbling.

In the chaos, Syd took note of the power in Hela's attack.

Her energy now exceeded that of the fire giant Surtur. If she were to challenge Surtur in her current state, she would likely win-though killing him would still be out of reach.

Recognizing the instability of the chaotic magic around him, Syd grew serious.

As the blinding light and gale subsided, all eyes turned to Hela and Syd, both still standing strong.

"Who will win?" murmured the villagers, mesmerized by the sight of two seemingly invincible figures.

Their question was answered when Syd spoke a single word:

"Light."

The sky blazed with radiant light, stretching as far as the eye could see-100 kilometers, 200 kilometers-enveloping the heavens in brilliance.

Those watching felt an overwhelming sense of insignificance, finally understanding what Hela meant by a destroyer of all.

The gathered light condensed into a searing beam, streaking toward Hela like a bolt of divine judgment.

Clad in her white armor, Hela raised her hand to block the attack, radiant energy surging to meet the beam.

Flash!

At first, Hela resisted the onslaught. But as the beam's intensity increased, augmented by chaotic magic, her defense faltered.

The force hurled her backward-30 meters, 100 meters-until she slammed into a nearby hill.

Boom!

The impact created a massive crater, steam rising from the scorched ground where plants and soil had been obliterated.

In the center of the crater lay Hela, her radiant armor dimmed, her form battered.

From afar, Xu Wenwu and his men stared in shock.

Hela had lost?

The terrifying, transformed Hela-thought to be invincible-had been defeated in a clash of power. And all it had taken was a single word from Syd.

"A word... just one word..."

Even the villagers, accustomed to witnessing mystical forces, were left in awe.

Xu Wenwu and his followers were hit hardest by the realization.

Now they fully understood why Hela had feared her brother. This was not a foe that could be challenged-Ten Rings or not.

Xu Wenwu's body trembled as he recalled his earlier thoughts of defeating such a monster.

"Even if the Ten Rings were ten times stronger, it wouldn't make a difference..." he muttered

bitterly.

But that wasn't the end of their shock.

As they stared at the scene, something clicked. The sight of the battle felt strangely familiar.

Slowly, their gaze shifted back to Syd.

"He's the White Robed Warrior..."

Recognition dawned on Xu Wenwu and his men.

Though his attire was far more elegant and refined now, they were certain: this was the same

figure they had once heard of, whose legend now stood before them.
