Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

Chapter 348: Ultimate Shield



"You coward," Juggernaut spat out, his anger making it hard for him to think clearly.

He was too mentally unstable to realize how dangerous his situation was.

'Is it just me, or are meta-humans stupid?' Reign thought to himself. He felt like they were either too dumb or built to be dumb.

They didn't show the careful planning or smart thinking one might expect from powerful beings. Instead, they reacted with anger or fear, not taking the time to think things through properly.

Even Red took too long to figure out how to use his powers effectively, and in the end, he failed to improve his fighting style, completely wasting his potential and excess power.

This showed a lack of battle sense and overall intelligence.

Reign began to wonder if meta-humans had to sacrifice their IQ to gain such outrageous and unbalanced abilities.

"RELEASE ME! YOU COWARD! FIGHT ME FAIR AND SQUARE!" Juggernaut spat out.

"What a let down," Reign shook his head, growing more disappointed as time passed.

He couldn't believe that Juggernaut had managed to hurt him before. It felt like his perfect record had been tainted by that fight.

Well, at least with everything related to this city being destroyed, he could bury this embarrassment.

Reign flew closer to the flood of monsters, their roiling body a chaotic, disgusting sea of writhing limbs and twisted faces.

As he hovered above the flood, he held Juggernaut tightly, allowing the meta-human to see the horrific scene below.

The meta-human, still struggling in Reign's grip, began to speak, his voice filled with both anger and desperation.

"You think you've won?" he spat out, his breath ragged.

"I've got plans—big plans! I am going to crush you, take you down, and—"

Reign cut him off with a cruel smile. "Any last words before you go for a swim? "

He slowly began to lower the meta-human toward the flood.

"You—"

Reign cut him off and let his body fall toward the flood.

"NOOOOOO!!!!" The meta-human's screams echoed as he was swallowed by countless monsters .

The corrupted creatures surged over him, they started devouring him as he struggled against the relentless tide.

Meanwhile, Reign watched from above, a faint smirk curling on his lips. He was intrigued and excited to see what would happen next.

After a few moments, a strange phenomenon began to unfold.

The area where the meta-human landed became the epicenter of a swirling vortex, spinning continuously like a whirlpool.

The corrupted creatures began to die off one by one. However, their corpses did not just vanish. Instead, each dead monster was quickly replaced by a new wave of corrupted beings.

These dead monsters were immediately pushed out the cycle of death, only to be replaced by yet another wave.

'This is more than I expected,' Reign thought to himself.

He could tell that Juggernaut was the perfect counter to Number 17's ability, and the meta-human had made Reign's life easier.

Seeing the flood of dead corrupted creatures growing larger, he decided to take advantage of the situation.

Dark tendrils began to protrude from his body, extending deep into the flood. Like the roots of a tree spreading through the earth, these tendrils began to wrap around and absorb the dead corpses.

What was once a terrifying flood of monsters now transformed into a source of immense power for him.

As he devoured the corpses, his Dark Dust Points and Experience Points soared.

The constant influx of energy and power was like a rush of pure bliss.

Dozens of minutes passed, and the number of corrupted creatures Reign had absorbed had grown to almost a million.

Unfortunately, Number 17 soon figured out what was happening and decided to create a gap to avoid the meta-human.

Reign felt disappointed, but it was what it was.

Without wasting any more time, he swooped down, grabbed Juggernaut, and flew him back up into the sky.

Looking at him, Reign's grin widened. The meta-human was battered and weak, his earlier struggles now reduced to mere helplessness.

He might be immortal, but being drowned by disgusting, fouled monsters was far from a good experience.

"W— What do you plan to do with me?" Juggernaut muttered, his voice barely above a whisper.

The trauma of what he had just witnessed had drained him completely, leaving him mentally exhausted and fearful of what was next.

"Do you know how to play baseball?" he asked.

Juggernaut raised his eyebrows in confusion. Before he could respond, he was hurled back toward the flood of monsters.

By reusing the meta-human repeatedly, Reign ensured he was getting the most out of the situation. Each cycle turned Juggernaut into a valuable asset.

Slowly but surely, the flood of monsters began to shrink at a rapid pace. However, Number 17 decided to change tactics again and scattered the creatures it controlled. This made the previous strategy ineffective.

But it was something he couldn't handle. He dug a very deep trench using his rail gun.

"What now?" Juggernaut protested, his voice filled with confusion. He tried to move, but before he could say anything more, Reign acted fast.

Bone chains, as hard as steel, wrapped around the meta-human, locking his limbs in place.

The chains tightened, digging into his flesh and making any attempt to struggle useless. Reign then buried him in the ground, covering him completely with dirt.

"I'll deal with you later," Reign said.

Without wasting another moment, he launched himself into the sky, his body cutting through the air like a missile.

Below him, the wave of corrupted creatures surged forward.

Reign flew down toward them and started throwing javelins.

BOOOOOM!

BOOOOOM!

BOOOOOM!

Each javelin exploded when it hit, sending huge bursts of fire through the ranks of the corrupted and burning them up.

With every blast, he pushed the remaining corrupted creatures further back, ensuring that no corner was left untouched by his attack.

After a while, the horde of corrupted creatures spread out so much that he figured it was too much trouble to chase them all.

He hovered in the air for a moment, looking down at the destruction he had caused.

Reign then slowly landed among the piles of dead bodies. Dark tendrils shot out from his body, twisting and wriggling as they spread across the field.

They reached out and hit the corpses with a penetrating pierce .

As they touched the bodies, the flesh and bones started to shrink and wither as their remaining vitality was sucked out and absorbed by Reign.

[DING!]

[DING!]

[DING!]

[DING!]

[DING!]

The sound of notifications echoed in his ears, letting him know he had collected a lot.

He knew that this successful run was not just due to his own abilities but also because of Juggernaut's help, which had made a big difference.

"That guy is an idiot, but he has his uses," Reign thought with a smirk. "Maybe I should strap him up and use him as a meat shield or something.... A shield that reflects everything."

It was a crazy idea, but completely logical and functional.

He thought about how he could just put a gag on the meta-human to stop him from talking nonsense, and then use him as the ultimate shield.
