Chapter 58 Little Mischief

Fifth Avenue, New York.

Outside St. Patrick's Church, crowds of people come to visit the church in an endless stream.

Unlike the bustling scene outside, a young girl, completely wrapped in a black robe, walked alone in an empty alley.

Gently lowering the black cloak, the girl revealed a delicate, chubby, and adorable face. She was none other than Mary, the mischievous girl Charles had asked White Night to help.

Fifteen days have passed since she awakened her mutant abilities. Having often seen mutants wreaking havoc in the news, she never imagined that one day she would become a mutant herself.

In particular, her awakened mutant ability causes everyone who comes into contact with her to lose their strength and fall unconscious. This ability is like a curse, forcing her to stay away from people to prevent harming others.

"I've found you."

Just as the little rascal was burying his head in his work, a hoarse voice came from ahead in the alley.

She looked up and saw a tall, burly man dressed like a savage, with a fierce appearance, blocking the intersection and staring at her with the eyes of someone eyeing prey.

Especially the four sharp fangs in the other's open mouth, resembling those of a large feline.

Looking at the unapproachable man in front of her, the mischievous girl subconsciously took two steps back and asked somewhat timidly, "Hello, may I ask what you need me for?"

"Our boss just needs you." Sabretooth looked at the little rascal who had nowhere to run and said in an extremely relaxed tone, "I hope you will come with me willingly, otherwise you will inevitably suffer a lot."

Before the saber-toothed tiger could finish speaking, the mischievous little boy, sensing danger, turned and fled without hesitation, like a frightened animal.

Seeing the girl hurrying through the alley, the saber-toothed tiger chased after her with an extremely relaxed expression.

Magneto had already told him about the little girl's abilities; it was merely an absorption of power. As long as she didn't come into contact with him, she would just be an ordinary girl, and she wouldn't be able to escape his grasp.

As the little rascal ran, she glanced back at the figure relentlessly pursuing her. The scruffy savage was incredibly fast and would catch up with her in no time.

10 meters...5 meters...3 meters...

Looking at the girl so close to him, a fierce glint flashed in the saber-toothed tiger's eyes. He couldn't let this little girl cause such a ruckus on the way back; it seemed he had to teach her a lesson first.

Thinking this, the saber-toothed tiger leaped high into the air, its five slender claws rapidly growing longer and transforming into sharp bone claws, which then reached for the little rascal's Achilles tendon.

But just before he could touch it, his beastly instincts sensed the danger first, and a terrifying sense of threat came rapidly from above.

"What the hell?" The saber-toothed tiger subconsciously looked up, only to see a shoe rapidly enlarging in his vision before stomping hard on his cervical spine.

Saber-toothed tiger felt as if a massive road roller weighing tens of tons was running over him from behind. The terrifying pressure instantly shattered his bones and forced his body, which was suspended in mid-air, to the ground.

"boom!!!"

The mischievous boy, filled with the urge to run away, heard a loud explosion behind him, and then felt his feet begin to tremble noticeably.

"Oh no!" Little Rascal thought to herself, a sudden sound behind her startled her, and she stumbled and fell to the ground.

Ignoring the burning pain from her hand scraping the ground, the girl hurriedly turned around, but what she saw behind her was something she would never forget.

The disheveled man who had been chasing him earlier was now lying on the ground like a dead dog.

A boy 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 disheveled man's body, creating a huge pit a meter in diameter in the ground beneath his feet.

"It seems the timing is just right."

Bai Ye looked at the little rascal staring blankly at him, ignoring the saber-toothed tiger shrouded in dust at his feet, and smiled as he extended his right hand to the girl, saying, "Hello, let's get acquainted. My name is Bai Ye. I heard you've been looking for me."

"Could this be a god?" Little Rascal wondered to himself.

The sunlight shone on Bai Ye's handsome face, making him look like an angel from God's kingdom. The perfect scene before him made Xiao Taoqi momentarily dazed, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out his right hand.

But looking at Bai Ye's fair and slender fingers in front of her, and comparing them to her own hands covered in dust and bloodstains, the girl withdrew her outstretched right hand.

"Your hand is injured." Bai Ye noticed the wound on Xiao Taoqi's arm, stomped the saber-toothed tiger's struggling head into the ground, and gently grasped the other's hand.

"Wait, you can't touch me." Seeing Bai Ye take his right hand, Xiao Taoqi suddenly remembered his ability and quickly withdrew his hand.

But Xiao Taoqi's right hand was firmly grasped by Bai Ye, and a powerful force was transmitted from the other party.

The girl anxiously looked up at the boy in front of her, only to see him looking at her with a normal expression, as if nothing had happened.

"Could it be that my abilities have no effect on him?" Little Rascal thought with delight, but feeling the continuous surge of power within him, he asked, "Are you alright?"

"It hurts a little, but it's within an acceptable range."

Despite feeling excruciating pain as if his body were being torn apart, Bai Ye smiled calmly, his gaze fixed on the numbers on his panel.

Name: Bai Ye

寿命：18/30000……29000……28000……27000……

Strength: 2.7 + 0.4... 2.6 + 0.4...

Physical condition: 2.7 + 0.4... 2.6 + 0.4...

Spirit: 2.7+……2.6……

Charisma: 1.4+

Attribute points to be used: 0.1

……

"It seems there are risks involved in prolonged contact, but the attribute points gained from the attribute panel don't appear to be absorbed."

Watching the values ​​on the attribute panel steadily decrease, Bai Ye thought to himself, then released Xiao Taoqi's right hand at the opportune moment and smiled, "Alright, your hand shouldn't hurt anymore now, right?"

"My hand?" Little Rascal looked down and was surprised to see that the scratches on his palm had already healed, with only traces of blood mixed with dust remaining to show that the wounds were not unfounded.

Glancing at the saber-toothed tiger lying there like a dead dog, Little Rascal sincerely thanked her, "Th-thank you for saving me. My name is Mary, you can call me Little Rascal. I came to New York to see you..."

"No need to explain." Bai Ye smiled and gently patted the little rascal's shoulder. "I know more than you do. I came here specifically to see you."

"Looking for... looking for me?" The little rascal looked at her idol in shock. She thought it was a fateful encounter, a passing boy meeting a girl in trouble. She never expected it to be a mutual journey. This was something she never dared to imagine.

"That's right. Could you please wait for me outside the alley for a moment? I have something to discuss with him," Bai Ye said.

And as he released his right hand, Bai Ye saw the values ​​on the panel that had been decreasing gradually return to normal, and the power he had lost began to recover.
