Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Rogue
Fifth Avenue, New York.
Outside St. Patrick's Cathedral, there is a constant stream of people visiting the church.
In contrast to the bustle outside, a young girl wrapped tightly in a black robe was walking alone in the deserted alley.
The girl gently put down her black cloak, revealing a cute face with baby fat. She was the girl that Charles asked Kevin for help to rescue, [Rogue] Anna Marie.
At this moment, 15 days have passed since she awakened her mutant abilities. She often saw mutants wreaking havoc on the news and she could never have imagined that she would become a mutant one day.
Especially her awakened mutant ability, everyone who comes into contact with her will lose their strength and fall unconscious. This ability is like a curse, forcing her to stay away from the crowd to avoid hurting others.
"I found you."
Just as Rogue was busy walking, a hoarse voice came from the front of the alley.
She looked up and saw a tall man with shabby clothes like a savage and an extremely fierce appearance blocking the intersection, staring at her as if she were his prey.
Especially in the opponent's open mouth, the four sharp fangs looked like those of a large cat.
Looking at the unfriendly man in front of her, Rogue subconsciously took two steps back and asked timidly: "Hello, what can I do for you?"
"Our boss just needs you." Sabretooth looked at Rogue who had no way to escape, and said in a very relaxed tone: "I hope you will voluntarily come with me, otherwise you will inevitably suffer."
Before sabretooth could finish his words, Rogue sensing the danger, turned around and ran away without hesitation, like a frightened animal.
Looking at the girl running hurriedly in the alley, Sabretooth chased after her with great ease.
Magneto has already told him that the ability of the little girl in front of him is just a mere ability absorption. As long as he is not touched by the other party, the other party is just an ordinary girl and can't escape from his palm.
As Rogue ran, she looked back at the figure chasing her. The sloppy savage moved extremely quickly, and it would not take long for him to catch up with her.
10 meters...5 meters...3 meters...
Looking at the girl so close to him, a fierce light flashed in sabretooth eyes. It would not do to let the little girl make such a fuss on the way back. It seemed that he had to teach her a lesson first.
Thinking of this, the sabretooth jumped high, and his five long and thin nails quickly grew longer and turned into sharp bone claws and then grabbed the Achilles tendon on the little girl leg.
But just before he was about to touch it, his beast instinct sensed the crisis first, and a terrifying sense of threat came rapidly from above.
"What the hell?" sabretooth looked up subconsciously, only to see a shoe rapidly enlarged in his sight and then stepped hard on his neck.
sabretooth only felt that a large steamroller weighing tens of tons was running over him from behind. The terrifying pressure crushed his bones in an instant and pressed his body in mid-air to the ground.
"Boom!!!"
Rogue who was ready to run away heard a loud explosion behind her, and then she felt a noticeable tremor under her feet.
"Oh no!" the little girl cried out inwardly. The sudden sound from behind made her panic and she mis stepped and fell to the ground.
Without paying attention to the burning pain caused by her palms scratching the ground, the girl turned her head hurriedly, but the scene behind her would be unforgettable for the rest of her life.
The sloppy man who had chased her was lying on the ground like a dead dog.
A young man in a white shirt stepped on the man's back with his right foot like a giant pillar supporting the sky. The terrifying force even penetrated the sloppy man's body and created a huge pit with a range of one meter on the ground beneath his feet.
"It seems like the timing is just right."
Kevin looked at the little Girl staring at him blankly, ignoring the sabretooth covered by smoke and dust under his feet. He smiled and stretched out his right hand to the girl and said, "Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Kevin White. I heard you were looking for me."
'Is this a god? ' The little Rogue thought to herself.
At this moment, the sunlight was shining on Kevin handsome face, making him look like an angel from Heaven. The perfect scene in front of her made little Rogue dazed, and she subconsciously wanted to stretch out her right hand.
But looking at Kevin white and slender fingers in front of her and then comparing them with her own palms which were now covered with dust and blood, the girl retracted her right hand that had been stretched out.
"Your hand is injured." Kevin noticed the wound on Rogue arm, stepped on sabretooth still struggling head into the ground, and gently grabbed the other's palm with his hand.
"Wait, you can't touch me." Seeing Kevin taking the initiative to hold her right hand, Rogue suddenly remembered her abilities and quickly withdrew her hand.
But at this moment, Rogue right hand had been firmly grasped by Kevin, and a powerful force was transmitted from his body.
The girl looked up at the boy in front of her anxiously but saw that he was looking at her as usual, as if nothing had happened.
'Is my ability ineffective on him? ' The little Rogue thought in her heart with surprise, but she felt the power surging in her body and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's a little painful, but within an acceptable range."
Feeling the excruciating pain as if his body was being cut by a thousand knives, Kevin smiled as usual while looking at the numbers on his panel.
Name: Kevin White
Lifespan: 18/30000…29000…28000…27000…
Strength: 2.7+0.4…2.6+0.4…
Physical fitness: 2.7+0.4…2.6+0.4…
Mental: 2.7+…2.6…
Charm: 1.4 +
attribute points to be used: 0.1
...
'It seems that long-term contact is still risky, but the attribute points added by the attribute panel seem to be unable to be absorbed.'
Looking at the decreasing values on the attribute panel, Kevin thought silently in his heart, then he let go of Rogue right hand at the right time and said with a smile: "Okay, your hand shouldn't hurt now."
"My hand?" The little girl looked down and was surprised to see that the scratch on her palm had healed. Only traces of blood mixed with dust remained, indicating that the wound was not an illusion.
After taking a look at sabretooth lying like a dead dog, Rogue thanked him sincerely: "Thank you...thank you for saving me. My name is Anna, but you can call me Rogue. I came to New York this time to see you..."
"No need to explain." Kevin smiled and gently patted Rogue shoulder and said, "I know more than you do. I came here specifically to see you this time."
"Looking for, looking for me?" Rogue looked at the idol in front of her in shock. She thought it was a fateful encounter, a boy passing by and meeting a girl in trouble, but she didn't expect it to be a two-way encounter. This was something she couldn't even imagine.
"That's right. Now could you please wait for me outside the alley? He and I have something to talk about." Kevin said.
And as his right hand loosened, Kevin saw that the values on the panel that had originally dropped began to gradually return to normal, and the lost power also began to recover gradually.
