Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Bullseye
Looking at the strange tight suit on the man in front of him and the peculiar target mark on his forehead, Alex immediately recognized his identity: Bullseye.
The dagger from earlier was clearly thrown by him. Alex quickly recalled Bullseye's identity; in many versions, he serves Kingpin. The reason for his sneak attack now must be under Kingpin's orders.
If it were someone else, even another superhuman, they would be pierced by his skillfully thrown daggers. But Alex was different. Even with his energy nearly depleted, he could still use the Six Eyes to track the dagger's attack.
But what gave Bullseye such confidence? Did he truly believe that he, even with his mastered skills could assassinate him?
Bullseye looked at the white-haired man in front of him. Very strong, beyond his expectations. He had aimed for the man's head, but even in his obviously weakened state, he dodged the thrown dagger.
It should be noted that the daggers Bullseye used were partially made of Adamantium, an extremely hard alloy that can cut almost anything. With the help of Adamantium, his thrown daggers could nearly reach the speed of sound!
The white-haired man dodged it, indicating he possessed other abilities besides spatial manipulation, perhaps a super physique or other means?
If the man was still at his peak, Bullseye wouldn't even dare to get close. But now, it was completely different!
"It seems that releasing that terrifying attack drained you significantly, even your reaction speed has greatly diminished.
If you were at your peak, I wouldn't be your opponent, but now... Hahaha, killing a powerful being with my own hands is truly delightful!"
Bullseye trembled with excitement. As a top assassin, what could be more exhilarating than killing a superpowered person?
But what surprised him was that the man in front of him showed no panic, as if Bullseye's threat didn't exist.
A sense of foreboding immediately arose in Bullseye. He quickly threw the Adamantium daggers in his hands, but most were dodged by the man in front of him.
However, one dagger did hit the man, which relaxed Bullseye a little.
He no longer had that invincible barrier around him.
Alex, using his remaining energy to strengthen his body and dodge attacks, quickly noticed the special material of the daggers through the Six Eyes. He understood that it was these incredibly hard daggers that allowed Bullseye to easily break through his defenses.
Yet he remained unflustered. How could a mere assassin dare to challenge a him?
He asked calmly, "You were sent by Kingpin to assassinate me, right?"
Bullseye didn't answer. Instead, he threw the daggers even faster and pulled out a gun to shoot at Alex, but all were detected by the Six Eyes and easily dodged.
Even if Bullseye didn't answer, Alex still confirmed his guess by observing his body details with the Six Eyes. He continued, "If you tell me Kingpin's location, I'll spare your life. How about it?"
Bullseye still didn't answer. Instead, he attacked even more rapidly and mocked, "You're struggling to protect yourself and you want to spare my life? Die!"
After speaking, Bullseye pulled out a rocket launcher from somewhere and fired it at Alex. (Lol)
When the rocket exploded in front of Alex, the massive fireball engulfed him, and Bullseye finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He should be dead now. Even in his weakened state, that white-haired man was so difficult to deal with.
Then he broke into an excited smile. Killing a powerful foe brought him immense pleasure!
"You seem quite happy? Do you think it's over?"
Suddenly, a voice from the flames froze the smile on his face. He heard the sound of a wall breaking, followed by the demon's voice again.
"I'll give you one last chance. Tell me Kingpin's location, and I'll make your death quick!"
In disbelief, he looked toward Alex. As the smoke cleared, the man appeared before him, completely unscathed.
A large number of shrapnel pieces floated in front of Alex, just like the bullets before, unable to get anywhere near him.
Moreover, one of Alex's hands was embedded in the sewer wall, and the dim lights around them grew even dimmer, while the wounds on the white-haired man's body healed rapidly!
Bullseye immediately realized he was absorbing electrical energy!
"You... you have another mutant ability!"
Realizing this, he immediately turned to flee with all his might.
"Damn it, damn it, he has another mutant ability that allows him to quickly recover energy. Who can stand against him now?
Damn you, Kingpin! I'm not taking this job anymore. Let someone else go die!"
But the terrifying pull came from behind him. Despite his physical prowess, far exceeding that of an ordinary person, he couldn't resist.
In Bullseye's despairing gaze, he floated in front of Alex, then his limbs were cruelly twisted by the horrific gravitational force, leaving him with no ability to fight back!
In the instant the rocket launcher was fired, Alex immediately used the kinetic energy from the flying knives and sunlight to supplement his energy. He then activated his Limitless Technique, reinforced his body, and reached out his arm to penetrate the wall, grabbing the electrical cables within and absorbing the energy.
A large amount of electrical energy was absorbed, reactivating both the Reversed Cursed Technique and the Limitless Technique, restoring him to peak condition!
The Adamantium knives were pushed out by his regenerating flesh, falling to the ground, and his wounds healed instantly.
Seeing Bullseye flee, Alex smiled brightly, then extended his finger and playfully said:
"Blue!"
After pulling Bullseye towards him and twisting his limbs into a pretzel shape, Alex asked again:
"So, have you reconsidered? Just tell me what I want to know, and I'll make your death quick and painless."
Bullseye looked at the white-haired demon before him, those mocking azure eyes under the white lashes.
For some reason, he saw a trace of eerie black and crimson in those beautiful eyes!
…
Alex then tore Bullseye's twisted body apart completely, leaving only some Adamantium bones, confirming that he didn't know Kingpin's location.
(P.S.: Bullseye had coated some Adamantium onto his bones.)
Kingpin was an extremely cautious man, changing his residence daily, and even his closest confidants did not know his exact itinerary for the next day.
With his hands in his pockets, Alex walked slowly forward, the blood and shrapnel floating behind him quickly falling to the ground.
Although it was a pity he couldn't learn Kingpin's precise location, it didn't matter.
As the Six Eyes Technique continued to upgrade, its observation range and x-ray vision capabilities would keep improving.
Once his observation range covered the entire New York City, Kingpin would be nothing more than an insect to be crushed effortlessly.
The cables from the sewer walls were pulled out by his gravitational control, floating around Alex, providing him with energy.
