[500PS REACHED!! I think!, Next Goal: 1000]
As the sound of a sonic boom echoed, Logan and the others instinctively stopped talking and turned to look.
The scene quieted down.
Looking at the figure floating in the sky, silhouetted against the sunlight, even though they knew he was an ally, Logan and the others couldn't help but feel pressure.
Before they could ask anything, Syd spoke first, "The Sentinel robots in this city have been cleared. There might be a few hiding, but there shouldn't be many left."
So quickly?
In less than an hour, dozens of Sentinels had been wiped out?
Logan and the others stared blankly at the figure in the sky, thinking of him as a god.
Syd then thought for a mont before continuing, "I heard you know the locations of several military bases. Tell where they are."
Cyclops hesitated briefly, but in the end, he gave the locations to ssiah.
Whatever happens after that isn't his concern-he doesn't like the military much anyway.
Though he wondered if the Professor might have sothing to say about it later...
As these thoughts passed through Scott's mind, he shared all the information he knew, even pulling out a map from his pocket, which showed he had been prepared for this.
Syd floated down, took the map, and glanced at the five marked locations.
"I'll be going now."
With the map in hand, Syd didn't stay long. His body lifted off again.
Boom! The sonic boom resounded.
Blocking the gust of wind that followed, Logan and the others hesitated but could only watch as ssiah disappeared from view.
Noticing Iceman and the others looking dejected, Logan offered so comfort, "Don't worry, we'll et ssiah again soday."
...
With that, they set off together, heading back to the X-Mansion.
At the entrance to the mansion, Professor X, who had been waiting for so ti, smiled when he saw them return.
However, upon realizing ssiah had left, he sighed.
For so reason, he felt a deep fondness for ssiah. Even when ssiah did things like destroy a city, he instinctively chose to look the other way.
Originally, he had wanted to talk to ssiah, hoping to guide him and prevent him from losing control. But now, it seed like there was no opportunity.
"I just hope there will never be a day when ssiah loses control..." Professor X murmured with a sigh.

While Professor X was deep in thought, Syd was sitting on top of a skyscraper, absorbing photon energy as he studied the map in his hand.
Soon, he selected the two military bases closest to his location.
As for the other three, he decided to ignore them for now to avoid giving the military ti to prepare an ambush.
With that in mind, Syd entered a secluded area, activated his invisibility, and in the next second, flew towards one of the military bases marked on the map.
In less than ten minutes, he arrived at the location.
He deactivated his invisibility and hovered tens of ters above the ground, looking down at the somber military base below with a faint smile.
Blue light gathered in his hand as he prepared to unleash his Spirit Light Column.
But suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.
"That's right, the energy in the void space of my Rebound Shield has accumulated quite a bit..."
He rembered all the energy he had absorbed from missiles during past battles. "Perfect, I can save so photon energy and collect more energy points."
Thinking about the 74% unlock progress of Baldur's ability, Syd paused before releasing his Spirit Light Column.
He focused on the energy stored within the void space of his Rebound Shield, and the next second, he began to draw it out.
--
Inside the military base, so officers were working while others chatted idly.
"That damn ssiah, he's so arrogant, acting like we don't even matter..."
"When we get the chance, I'll show him who's boss..."
As they watched the news of ssiah destroying the Sentinels, many officers grumbled angrily, so even laughing and mocking him.
They joked around, not taking ssiah seriously at all.
After all, what harm could co from talking like this? ssiah wouldn't know, and he
couldn't touch them anyway.
But just as they were thinking that, a strange sound echoed from the sky.
One by one, the officers instinctively looked up.
Their eyes widened in terror and shock.
Above them, a massive explosion of fiery energy appeared in the sky.
Boom!
The energy stored in the Rebound Shield surged forth!
"What's happening? Why is there an explosion?!"
"No!"
In the terrified, disbelieving eyes of the officers, the explosion engulfed them.
Boom, boom, boom...
The deafening explosions rocked the area, sending the officers flying.
Looking down at the vast area affected by the blast, Syd raised an eyebrow in surprise.
But then he realized this outco was normal-after all, he had been bombarded countless tis, and the void space had absorbed a huge amount of energy.
Whether it was explosive energy or kinetic force...
Many of the missiles had detonated very close to him, and before they could fully explode,
most of their energy had been absorbed by the Rebound Shield.
All that energy had accumulated in the void space, and under his control, none of it had dissipated, leaving a massive reserve.
The military base below wasn't particularly large, so the entire facility was instantly engulfed
by the explosion, swallowing everything within it.
The officers barely had ti to feel fear before being consud by the blast, perishing in
despair.
After scanning the base, now completely consud by the explosion, Syd shook his head and
flew toward the next base.
As for the destroyed base, there was no chance anyone had survived.
Even a minor earthquake can kill people, let alone an explosion like this...
Syd didn't think the base had any high-level defense systems in place. Even if they did, the
officers wouldn't have had ti to reach them.
Shortly after Syd left, the military learned of the incident.
They quickly pulled up footage from the scene.
"Was that an explosion?"
"What's going on?"
Staring at the footage of the explosion engulfing the entire base, nurous U.S. military officers were both shocked and confused, unable to understand what had happened to cause
such devastation.
"A terrorist attack?"
As for ssiah, they didn't even consider him a possibility.
After all, ssiah didn't have abilities like this. How could it have been him?
While they were still puzzled, soone pulled up another piece of footage.
The screen showed the blurry figure of a mysterious man in black.
"What is that?!"
