Chapter 357 40 Mutants!!
Jaden had already noticed the people that had appeared on the roof of the building that he had left. But currently, they were quite a distance away, and it was impossible for them to be able to detect him and the person that he was with.
Jaden had noticed that some people on the streets below had already noticed that there were two figures that were passing above them. Most of them just happened to be looking up, when they noticed the two of them.
With his sharp sense of hearing, Jaden could hear them screaming that there was someone that was flying above. This obviously attracted the attention of the people around, but no sooner had they began shouting, than Jaden and the person that he was carrying disappeared.
Jaden was moving at an incredible speed, and the only time that his speed went down was during the time that he was in the air, moving from one building to another.
The moment that he landed on the floor of a building, he would immediately rush forward, pulling the man using his telekinesis ability along with him.
At this moment, the man who was being held by Jaden's telekinesis ability did not even dare to resist. His entire world had been overturned at the moment.
Just what kind of mutant was this? How can there be a person with a telekinesis ability who is this athletic? Was it not said that as long as a person had enough strength, they could easily take care of a person with a telekinesis ability, as long as they got close to them?
But looking at the speed at which Jaden was moving at, including how he was able to jump for long distances and heights, the man understood that this time, he had met with something that was completely unplanned for.
He understood that this time, maybe he had been sent over to be killed. Otherwise, why would the information being given to him be incorrect?
He had been informed that there was a possibility that Jaden was a mutant, but it was only said to be a possibility. But who had ever said that Jaden was actually a veteran mutant, and even had two abilities? In fact, it was three, super speed, super strength, and finally, telekinesis ability.
While the man was still thinking about that, Jaden had already arrived at the outskirts of the city. Just like Faru City, Rezi City was surrounded by a forest just after coming out of the city.
Jaden did not stop after getting out of the city, but instead, he ventured department to the forest. Through the AI, he had already investigated about this forest, and understood that there were no any ferocious animals present.
Well, the animals could be found, but they were in the deepest parts of the forest, but not in this direction, but in the opposite direction. The direction that Jaden was heading towards was the one that headed towards the central province.
After getting enough distance from the city, Jaden finally stopped. Despite having sprinted for such a long distance, Jaden was not tired at all, not even sweating.
He looked at the man who had already been dropped down after he had been released by his telekinesis ability. It was finally time for him to start asking for answers from him.
"Start answering, or for every moment that you lose, I'm going to break a single bone of yours, but you might be unlucky to lose more than one." Jaden said as he looked at the man who was lying on the ground, showing no intention of getting back on his feet.
When the man heard Jaden's words, he could not help but be startled. He swallowed hard, before finally trying to get back on his feet.
Due to the speed that Jaden had been moving at, the man was feeling a little dizzy, and it took him quite a while for him to be able to get back on his feet. But he had only gotten back on his feet one suddenly, Jaden arrived next to him.
Without even knowing when, Jaden had somehow covered the distance between the two of them that was about 3 m, and now was standing less than half a meter away.
Crack!
Before the man could react, his hand suddenly gave cracking sounds. At the same time, intense pain shot upwards from his wrist, making the man scream.
It was only at this moment that the man realized that somehow, Jaden had broken his hand. Jaden had not moved other than approaching him, but still, his hand was broken.
The man endured the pain as he collapsed onto the ground, kneeling, while holding his broken hand that had been broken at the wrist. At the same time, he was reminded of the fact that Jaden possessed the telekinesis ability.
Additionally, Jaden had already given him a warning, telling him that if he did not speak, he was going to lose a bone, but there was no guarantee that he was going to lose one of them at a time.
The man was already sweating behind the mask. His breathing had already become unsteady, due to the fear that he was experiencing.
Thinking about the pain that he was currently going through, and imagining that his left hand would also be broken, the man immediately decided that he better speak up.
"I'm sorry that I tried to kill you. I had no other choice, I have been ordered to come and do that. If I did not kill you, and disobeyed the orders that I was given, I would have been killed instead." The man said hysterically, nearly shouting.
Jaden did not respond to his words, but instead, he simply continued looking at him, obviously expecting more answers from the man.
Upon noticing Jaden's gaze that did not show any fluctuations, the man understood that he needed to say more than what he had said.
"I believe that you know about the Smith family, right? It was the Smith family that sent me after you. I was told that I am supposed to eliminate you, because you are a hidden danger.
According to the information that I have received, it is said that initially, you were just a small mosquito that they could kill at any moment, but as days kept on moving, somehow, you kept on improving.
They are afraid that if you continue being alive, you would cause them troubles in the future, especially currently when they are about to succeed. They don't want anything that is going to disrupt the plan that is already in motion and about to go through.
As for what the real plan is, I don't have that information. I'm only a low level member, and I can't access the important information. Please spare me, I beg you." The man ranted.
Jaden could not help but raise his brows slightly when he heard that the man had actually been sent by the Smith family. The Smith family was involved with the mutants?
Previously, when he had asked the AI to look for the information about the Raven mercenaries and the Smith family, the AI encountered something that blocked it. According to the AI, it was something like a wall but it was not made out of codes like normal firewalls.
At that time, Jaden believed that there was a method that was being used by the two forces in order to be able to prevent the AI from probing information about them. And now, it seemed that there was a possibility that this method was not technology that was at a level beyond the AI, but instead, it was something supernatural.
"How many mutants does the Smith family have?" Jaden asked after a moment of silence.
"The Smith family has 17 mutants. Those are the ones that I have known or heard about. As for if they have any other mutants, I don't really know." The man responded.
And even before Jaden could say anything, the man continued, "The Smith family has a collaboration with the Raven Mercenary group. This mercenary group also has mutants, and the number of mutants within this mercenary group is higher than the Smith family.
According to what I know, the mercenary group has at least 23 mutants. They are part of the core members of this mercenary group. And just like in the Smith family, those are the ones that I have heard about. As for if they have more, I don't really know."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jaden frowned a little upon hearing that. It seemed that he was supposed to be dealing with at least 40 mutants. And, those were the ones that were known.
"Do those that you have mentioned include the leaders of the two forces?" Jaden asked.
"Not really. I don't believe that the leaders of the two families are mutants." The man said without hesitation.
Jaden raised his brows slightly, before asking, "Are you trying to tell me that they are ordinary?"
From how quick this guy was to respond, it was clear that he had the confidence in what he was saying. Could it be that the leaders of the two forces were just ordinary people?
There was a possibility for the Smith family to be led by a normal person. But what about the mercenary group? Would the mutant mercenaries just follow an ordinary person? That was completely unlike mercenaries, right?
Most of the mercenaries would want to be the leaders themselves, or would follow those that are stronger than themselves. How would they follow weaklings?
"They are not ordinary people, and they are not mutants. They are beyond mutants!" The man said something that shocked Jaden to the core.
