Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger

Chapter 26: Development of Psychic Power

"A man slaughtering over two hundred gunmen in a short period of time is no ordinary danger. Does he have some special abilities, Professor? Why are you so concerned about him?"

Jean looked towards the Professor.

"There is a very powerful energy hidden within his body, and this energy is growing rapidly every moment, making my heart race," said Professor Charles, his expression growing grave.

"He is a mutant, a type I've never seen before; not a mutant, yet born with such unimaginable energy, and his character is too extreme. Once he steps into darkness, he will be a tremendous threat to this world."

"And an unimaginable disaster."

Charles is not speaking without basis; he indeed has some concerns. A executioner who has slaughtered five hundred people—even if he still avoids harming the innocent now, who can guarantee he won't in the future?

Being addicted to killing is itself a path to potential downfall.

Moreover, endlessly increasing power can also lead to personality distortions—arrogance, conceit, and the belief of being an all-powerful deity.

He has seen too many such people.

But those people compared to someone like Bi Xiao—the gap is too large. In Charles's own perception, the most dangerous individuals, Bi Xiao might occupy a high position, perhaps even more so than his old friend Erik.

At least, Erik needs a helmet to prevent his psychic powers from intruding.

This one doesn't need a helmet; his own powerful mind is formidable enough to resist any psychic forces against him.

"Do you really think we will become enemies with these youngsters?" Logan said bluntly.

"One cannot predict the future, Logan," Charles shook his head. "We do not understand him, but we need to keep a close eye on him."

"I'd advise you not to do that, Professor."

After Charles finished speaking, Logan looked at him meaningfully: "He is a beast, and even a calm beast is still a beast. When you feel he is dangerous, it means in your subconscious, you already see him as an enemy, and he will not hesitate to show his sharp claws and fangs."

Logan's words caught everyone off guard.

Scott retorted to Logan: "When did a wolf learn to speak such wisdom?"

"Or are you the same kind?"

"Scott." Jean frowned, unhappy with her boyfriend's offensive remarks. Regardless, Logan was their comrade, and such words were akin to an insult to one's own.

"Kid, if you're dissatisfied, you might try provoking a wild beast, and perhaps you'll see for yourself how a beast tears your body apart."

Logan stepped forward to stand face to face with Scott, his voice low.

The ambitious Logan was almost about to say, "I'll kill you."

For Scott, his romantic rival, he had never had any fondness.

Scott was not at all intimidated and confronted Logan head-on, like two bulls in heat, while Storm and Beast could not help but shake their heads, accustomed to such dramas.

Then the Professor intervened to break up their argument: "Maybe you are right, Logan, we have always hoped to guide him towards good."

"Perhaps we should not be on guard against him; let us just wait silently. Time may give us the answer."

Logan raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the Professor.

At that moment, the Professor also picked up a book in his hands, titled 'The Origins of Good and Evil.'

......

Natasha left, and Bi Xiao was already preparing his next step.

Before taking action, he needed to develop another ability.

The use of psychic power.

If psychic power could be developed to its fullest extent, it would undoubtedly compensate for another of Bi Xiao's weaknesses. The psychic power of Professor X was unique on Earth.

Even the White Queen was far inferior to him, especially since the other party also had a device that could amplify psychic power.

If he wore that device, it would pose a great threat to Bi Xiao.

Bi Xiao disliked such threats, so after the clash with Professor X in Chinatown, he immediately began to develop psychic power.

His psychic power was strong, as psychic power is an extension of willpower.

When the will is more resilient, the psychic power is stronger.

For instance, Captain America, Steve Rogers, does not know how to use psychic power, but his will is so strong that ordinary psychic power users cannot manipulate him.

He just lacks the method to transform and extend this psychic power for use.

Unlike Rogers, who naturally has an incredible will, Bi Xiao is another kind of freak, life essence advantages in comprehensive enhancement, including psychic power. Once his abilities awaken, he can instantly master this power.

But it is limited to usage; finer control is still not in place.

He needs to develop it further, extending this power.

However, compared to magic, psychic development is much simpler. As long as there are enough test subjects, he can quickly develop many abilities.

As for test subjects, there are plenty of people in New York.

He randomly picked a few gang members, took them to a deserted area, and began his experiments on these test subjects.

Starting with the simplest of psychic manipulations, he used his psychic power to infiltrate these ordinary people's brains and began the journey of memory reading. Inside their brains, he acted like a god controlling their memories, with images flashing by like slides, seemingly holding the buttons for fast-forward and rewind.

He could effortlessly browse through these people's memories at will.

Beyond this, he gradually used his psychic power to create mischief in their brains, such as constructing a psychic prison, creating a fictional psychic world, and thrusting them into it.

These activities required a sufficient mastery of psychic power, and he progressively developed more derivative powers like psychic storms and psychic bombs, the final outcome being that he left these people brain-dead, their deaths somewhat gruesome.

Bi Xiao, in a final act of mercy, burned the bodies of these few individuals to ashes.
