"Secret weapon?"

"Irina looks confident this time; she probably won't fail."

"I'm really curious..."

"If Irina is so sure, that fugitive won't escape, haha..."

"Agreed!"

Netizens were abuzz with discussions, their hearts filled with anticipation.

They were eager to hear Irina announce that the mutant fugitive had been caught! They wondered if there would be a live broadcast this time. Curiosity and expectation filled their minds.

While the general public speculated about when the fugitive would be defeated by the secret weapon and captured, some mutants and a few of Syd's acquaintances who saw the news grew worried.

In a dark underground tunnel...

"This little guy..."

Logan, put down his cigar, his brows furrowing tightly with concern.

Chris, beside him, sighed and said, "I hope he'll be okay."

Otto and Valentin exchanged a glance.

"Do we need to help him?" Otto raised his hand.

Valentin shook his head, dismissing the idea. "How can we help when we don't even know where he is!"

"All we can do now is pray, pray that he gets through this danger!"

Hearing this, Chris frowned. "The information Irina revealed is probably true. Those trying to capture Syd must have prepared a secret weapon..."

"Irina sounds very confident; it's likely that Syd..."

He wanted to say more but eventually fell silent, though everyone understood his meaning.

Indeed, considering the strength Syd displayed recently, he wasn't invincible. There were many ways to deal with him.

Poison, sniper assassination, a group of well-armed people attacking, and weapons targeting the X-gene...

Just thinking about it, they could come up with several methods to restrain Syd, not to mention the more terrifying means that Irina called a secret weapon!

At this moment, Logan spoke up.

"Hey, that kid is in danger; we can't just do nothing. We should try to find him and rescue him."

Chris nodded, indicating his willingness to search.

Otto and Valentin hesitated for a while before finally agreeing to the idea after looking at each other.

After some preparations, they left the sewer and began searching, trying to find Syd before the government did.

...

Besides Logan and the others seeing Irina's broadcast, Professor X in the far-off X-Mansion was also speaking seriously to Cyclops, Scott.

"Scott, have you found that Omega-level mutant?"

Standing nearby, Scott shook his head.

Hearing this, Professor X felt a bit anxious, worrying that the Omega-level mutant might fall into the wrong hands, potentially causing unimaginable disaster!

At this moment, Cyclops, unable to hold back his curiosity, asked, "Professor, is that Omega- level mutant really so important that we must find him?"

Professor X glanced at him, shaking his head, knowing Scott hadn't truly witnessed the power of an Omega-level mutant. Even with some understanding, it was merely an estimate based on Jean.

Professor X explained slowly, "Scott, you don't understand. Omega is not simply a level five; it's actually an infinite level."

"The power of an Omega-level mutant cannot be assessed by common standards!"

Hearing this, Scott looked shocked.

Infinite level?

Is an Omega-level mutant really that powerful?

Is the gap between levels four and five so vast?

As he stood there in amazement, Professor X sighed, "Find him as soon as possible."

Then, he looked at Scott. "Scott, do your best to find the Omega-level mutant, but now you need to help another child."

Understanding the Professor's meaning instantly, Scott nodded. "Professor, I'll take people to save that child."

"I'll go get Jean and the others..."

With that, he stepped out of the office to find Jean and Storm.

Watching his departing figure, Professor X's worry deepened, concerned for both the Omega- level mutant and the child about to face danger.

Half an hour later, Cyclops, having gathered his team, boarded the jet and flew towards the

target city.

As the X-Men took action, so did Magneto, Eric, within the Brotherhood of Mutants.

Turning to Mystique, Eric asked, "Raven, have you found the person I asked for?"

The slim, blue-skinned Mystique shook her head. "The kid is too good at hiding; I just can't find him."

She had infiltrated government departments, but even they hadn't found him, let alone her

alone.

Hearing her explanation, Eric frowned, displeased.

"Keep an eye on those departments. See when they go after the kid, and if necessary, blend

in."

Eric ordered.

Mystique nodded and turned to leave.

But before she could go, Eric's voice sounded behind her, "By the way, what about the

Omega-level mutant I asked you to find?"

Mystique shook her head again.

Eric's frown deepened.

Watching her disappear, Eric suddenly laughed, "Old friend, let's see who finds the Omega-

level mutant first!"

As the X-Men and Brotherhood of Mutants moved, Eddie, fleeing with Venom, also saw the

news.

Eddie didn't think much of it, soon forgetting after a glance.

Besides them, Heidi and the other two, who had once encountered Syd with the underground organization, also saw the news because they always followed his updates.

They were now looking at each other.

After they parted ways, they asked some mutants what the ultimate threat to mutants meant.

Many didn't know.

However, they guessed it likely referred to level four, five, or even Omega-level mutants!

The possibility of level five or Omega-level wasn't small!

They were shocked.

Facing the news of Syd being hunted, they felt conflicted, unsure whether to help their friend.

...

Noon.

The sky was overcast, clouds thick, a storm seemingly imminent.

At this moment, Syd was diligently practicing Photon Energy.

Glancing at the panel, he muttered, "What lousy weather..."

If not for the weather, a morning of practice wouldn't have yielded such little progress.
