Chapter 911 Climbing Over The Wall
Chapter 911 Climbing Over The Wall
The electrifying wall was a strange one. There was a reason why large amounts of electrical currents worked so well on Altereds, and it was because it interrupted the Altered process quite a bit.
The wall was too high for Ice to just build a platform and climb over; he had also used a lot of his powers already fighting against the Warden, and now out here, he was exhausted. So he was physically using his Altered strength with a small amount of his ice powers to climb the wall.
Yet, now the electric currents were going through his body; his strength was weakening, his body was getting the same power as before, and even his ice powers were getting harder to use.
Gary, it was affecting him but less so; he had a high endurance after all, so he was able to carry it, but he could hear the sound of grunting from behind. When looking behind him, Blackjack was doing fine, but he could see the heavy sweat on Ice’s face, struggling.
Ice looked up at Gary, huffing and panting, his eyes were fading, and just at that moment, his grip loosened, and he started to fall back toward the ground.
“And look at that, one of them only managed to make it about halfway,” Theodore claimed.
Ice was regaining his strength now he was no longer touching the wall, but his powers still hadn’t returned. All he could think was, at least he managed to help someone while in this place.
That was until he could see green hair coming closer and closer toward him. Gary had pushed off the wall from where he was and leapt down. He was sliding down with his claw-marked hand and reaching out he had grabbed Ice, catching him before he fell to the floor.
“You… have come this far with me; I’m not letting you fall back down there; who knows what they would do. You deserve a better life,” Gary said as he lifted him up and placed him over his back with a single hand.
A feat that looked impressive, but Gary, of course, had his supernatural strength.
“Hold on; we’re going to get out of here.” Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“Did you think we would just stand around and let you?” Opptus said. With his hand reached out, he started to fire away several of the webs he had used to catch other criminals before.
As the net came at them and with Ice on Gary’s back, it would be harder for him to turn and cut it like he did before, but there was no need to. Before the net had reached the two, several feathers had come out from both Frank and Sadie, hitting it; they had cut several parts causing the net to just fall to the ground.
At the same time, Elijah was busy with his stone rock hand bashing the White Rose agents below that were using their Altered abilities to attack at the wall.
“Keep moving!” Blackjack said as he grit his teeth and was making it up the wall, while Gary did the same, placing one hand in front of the other.
The electrified wall was turning out to be a double-edged sword for the group. On one hand, it was slowing their climb; at this point, most people would have fallen off.
But now, it was also stopping the physical-type Altered from giving chase by climbing up the wall themselves.
“Do you really think I’m just going to watch them escape?” Theodore asked.
“Do you really think that I won’t try to stop you!” Kanu said, looking right into Theodore’s eyes.
The other White Rose agents were slightly confused; why would the Deputy Chief Constable not attack? The two of them were eyeing each other up, almost waiting for the next one to make a move; it was like he didn’t want to go against Kanu.
However, when watching both of them, with a blink, Theodore was suddenly gone, and when looking at the scene again with his long arms, Theodore had grabbed the back of Kanu and slammed him to the ground.
No one had even seen Theodore move, yet he had gotten behind Kanu in an instant.
“You should know why I’m not in a rush, because I can get them at any time; I’m just waiting for them to go over that wall, and they will see me right in front of their eyes.”
“Ha!” Kanu grunted with his face on the ground. “And it’s that cockiness that I was expecting; if they had sent Leon, maybe they wouldn’t have escaped, but I’m glad they have sent you.”
In the middle of their conversation, Gary had pulled himself with Ice over the wall, and at the very top, they turned to look back at the White Rose members.
“I won’t forget about you… I just have more important things to deal with right now; I’ll be back,” Gary said as he leapt off with Blackjack as well.
Theodore, seeing this, had a smile on his face; he was straightening his back as if he was just about to move.
“STOP!” A loud booming voice was heard; the sound was immense, causing some of the White Rose to use their hands to cover their ears.
Turning around, a group of around ten people had entered the scene, their clothing mainly black with a trim of red. For many of the White Rose, it was the first time they had seen this group of people before.
For others, it struck fear in them when seeing them because they knew exactly who it was.
“What are… what is the Superintendent doing here, and why is he with the disciplinary team!”
The Superintendent a group of people that acted separately from the reagular members of the White rose, and usually their appreance wasn’t good news.
