Fourteen-year-old Alex Johnson only wanted to be an ordinary mortal and live a good life.
Unfortunately, he was born extraordinary!
His body was immortal and indestructible, his cellular activity terrifyingly potent to an extreme; even if his body was damaged to the point of only a single cell remaining, it could rapidly proliferate and regenerate.
His genes were constantly mutating and evolving; all external stimuli and all attack characteristics from enemies would prompt him to evolve corresponding countermeasures.
In short, he could not be harmed by the same method a second time.
To better categorize the myriad abilities constantly emerging within him, he even created the concept of a 'system' to summarize how many abilities he possessed.
Even Alex himself knew that, with the passage of time, he would become omniscient, omnipotent, all-knowing, all-capable, and omnipresent.
Oh, and such an existence in this world seemed to be referred to as 'OAA'.
Only...
Chapter 1
Crack!!
An iron shackle was placed on the hand of a thirteen-year-old boy, his tall and slender figure pushed forward by two fully armed soldiers.
His solitary shadow was cast upon the long corridor of the underground base.
Alex's childish face was faintly tinged with fear.
He didn't want to go.
But the detaining soldiers kept pushing him from behind, their robust and sturdy physiques easily propelling him forward.
"Damn bastards..."
Alex gritted his teeth, his undeveloped body struggling desperately.
"Kid, behave yourself."
The soldiers on both sides immediately grabbed the boy's arms, leading him toward the laboratory at the end of the corridor.
This was an experimental base specifically for studying mutants; brain slicing, body dissection, and various illegal human experiments were all conducted here.
After all, people were too eager to uncover the genetic mysteries of mutants!!
In the past half-month, Alex had seen countless figures taken from their cells, never to return.
Damn it!!
He didn't want to die!
But with shackles on his limbs and being young and powerless, Alex's struggles were completely ineffective. Soon, his body was brought into a sealed laboratory.
"Strap him down."
Under the direction of the white-coated experimenters, Alex's hands and feet were bound to an experimental platform. His waist and even his neck were tightly secured by restraint straps, leaving him lying flat on the platform, unable to move, like a lamb awaiting slaughter.
Outside the one-way mirror of the experiment room, General Marcus, dressed in a military uniform, said excitedly, "Is this Number 5162? The fellow with the extraordinary healing?"
"Yes, General!"
A doctor beside him said with great excitement, "Even Wolverine's healing ability can't compare to his. This guy's cellular activity is simply terrifying. It can be said that he is a key to our eternal immortality."
"Eternal immortality?"
General Marcus's expression grew increasingly agitated.
The white-robed doctor had another thing he hadn't said: this young boy with extraordinary healing ability was not a mutant because he didn't possess the characteristic X-Gene of mutants. Instead, his genes were very special, strangely variable, as if... constantly mutating and evolving.
Immortal and indestructible?
Infinite evolution?
To be honest, the white-robed doctor was startled by his own bold hypothesis.
How did this sound like an omnipotent God?
His intuition told him that this boy was very dangerous, but regarding the constantly mutating mysterious genes, he couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart.
He wanted to decipher it, study it, and thoroughly obtain answers from it.
"Let me cut open your head and get the answers from it."
The white-robed doctor walked in, his cruel words echoing in Alex's ears.
No!!
Alex began to struggle more violently.
Because he saw the surrounding white-coated doctors all pick up a scalpel.
Craniotomy!!
These devils were going to perform a craniotomy on him!!
He was about to be craniotomized and sliced!
I don't want to die!
Alex's heart began to scream. He thought of his deceased mother; he had promised her that he and his sister would live well, always healthy, live a long life, and in the future, find a gentle wife and have a chubby son.
As a result, a catastrophic disaster had befallen him, threatening to destroy the vow he made before his mother passed away.
No!!
"I want to live!"
Alex shouted.
At this moment, an invisible wave emanated from his mind, and everything around him was dominated by an invisible telekinesis wave. All the items in the laboratory inexplicably floated in the air.
"Damn it, Number 5162 has displayed a new ability, suspected telekinesis!!"
Suddenly, the experimenters inexplicably panicked.
"Quickly, administer a strong anesthetic!"
A nurse immediately tremblingly grabbed a syringe that had floated up from the air.
Alex witnessed this scene, and his clear eyes instantly turned red.
He didn't want an injection.
He hated injections the most!!
"Get out, all of you, get out!"
Alex roared.
Bang!!
As if his words commanded the law, the nurse holding the syringe, along with the surrounding white-coated experimenters, were instantly subjected to a terrifying repulsive force. With a bang, each of their bodies crashed against the back wall.
Many people were dazed and fainted on the spot.
Alex's eyes were red; he didn't realize that his genes were undergoing terrifying mutation and evolution at this very moment.
At this moment, he only wanted to live well.
"I want to live, I want to keep my promise."
Strong belief transformed into motivation.
Rip!!
The restraint straps tightly binding Alex's limbs and waist were completely torn apart by his slender physique.
His physical strength inexplicably surged; his weak frame, which had not received much nutritional supplementation for more than ten days, gradually filled with muscle definition.
Alex didn't know what was happening to him.
He just wanted to live.
Thud!!
The door of the experiment room was thus opened, and several fully armed soldiers directly rushed in. Upon learning that the experimental subject had completely lost control, they did not hesitate to pull the triggers of their guns!
Whoosh!
The bullets from the automatic rifle accurately hit Alex's body; one bullet struck him directly between the eyebrows.
But in less than a second, as if in reverse, the bullets that had pierced his body were 'spit' out from Alex's body, and the penetrating wounds healed in an instant, leaving no trace of injury.
"A self-healer?"
The soldier sneered, abruptly changing the firing mode, and the automatic rifle's bullets continuously fired at Alex's head.
He wanted to see how the opponent would heal after his head was completely blown open.
Ding ding ding!!
The bullets fired at close range struck Alex's skin. This time, they did not penetrate his body surface but instead bounced off directly.
