[Congratulation for getting a Divine Skill]
[Neuron Reset [Maxed]: Grants the host the ability to reset all effects in his body. This reset activates automatically upon incurring fatal, deadly damage . When the host is on the brink of death, all neurons in the host's body activate as a defense mechanism to ensure survival.
After the resets, host enter an immortal state and become immune to any kind of attack for 2 minute. During this time, all skills can be used without any cost.]
[Penalty : -90% attributes after activation for 2 days]
[Mind Power: Locked for 3 days]
[Can't be upgraded ]
'Damn! This skill is both OP and unforgiving at the same time,' I mumbled to myself.
It was a skill designed to activate only when I was on the verge of death. If I found myself in a situation dire enough to trigger it, I couldn't help but wonder how strong my enemy must be.
'I thought I'd get a more practical skill,' I sighed to myself. Neuron Reset was overpowered in its own way, but it wasn't a skill I could use on a whim. Plus, I didn't really plan to die just to test its power.
Regardless, the effect provided peace of mind. The ability to use skills without limit alone granted me a huge advantage.
In this state, I could teleport non-stop to ensure my safety or, if victory seemed within reach, unleash a relentless barrage of varied attacks against my enemy.
The immortal state also meant that for those two minutes, I would transform into a godlike entity immune to harm.
The penalty, however, was quite severe; a 90% reduction in attributes would make me considerably weaker, though not to the point of being crippled. Even if all my attributes dropped to 90%, I would still surpass the strength of my old fat body.
"But why did the system give me this skill right now?" I muttered to myself. For some reason, I had a gut feeling that this skill was intentionally given to me by the system. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Even though it claims to be random, I would be naive to believe that. My system typically provides me with skills I need at the right moments.
'Maybe I'll face someone strong enough to kill me?' I mused to myself. That wasn't a far-fetched idea at all. For all I knew, Cerebrum had already dispatched their most powerful agents to hunt me down.
"I need to prepare for the worst." As I contemplated this, Eun Ha came to mind. Her power was really powerful, and obtaining it immediately would instantly elevate my power to a new level.
I watched her utilizing her black hole during our escape, and if I were to categorize it, it could be considered a Divine Skill as well, maybe even higher.
"I can't play nice around anymore,"

"Did you locate them?" A man with black hair, clad in a visor, inquired. He stood tall, around 6'2", and had a well-built physique for someone of Chinese descent.
The others in the room stayed silent, recognizing that the man before them was the bona fide Rank 1 Gifted in Asia.
Accompanying him were other Ranked Gifted individuals on Cerebrum's payroll. Given the international nature of this case, they had been assigned to handle it personally.
It wasn't just them; the team also included None gifted agents relying on artificial powers, all present within the state-of-the-art Ship. It was evident that the organization was mobilizing a lot of manpower for this mission. Failure was simply not an option.
"I could sense their traces, Master Zhang," replied an old lady. Despite her frail and weak appearance, her eyes were filled of wisdom.
This elderly woman happened to be one of the best Tracker of Cerebrum, possessing the unique ability to sense Mind Power fragments. However, this power came with a cost; the more she used it, the more she aged. She might look old, but she was only 20 years old.
In fact, she had aged 5 years just by tracking those who attacked North Korea. It highlighted the fact that the Mind Power wielded by those individuals were far stronger than normal.
"We need to find them," Zhang spoke up, his eyes scanning the other Gifteds.
"Stop drinking those pills; we need to go all out ," he declared to everyone.
The pill he referred to was the downer that Cerebrum created to alleviate the side effects of excessive Mind Power. It was common knowledge that having too much Mind Power would adversely affect the mind.
So, the purpose of this pill was to prevent powerful Gifteds from losing control.
However, the side effect of these pills was that they would also diminish the power of the user. Gifteds extract their power from emotions, which explained why those with more sadistic , brutal and inhumane tendencies could harness and utilized their ability more.
In fact, experiencing guilt and pondering about turning good served as a warning for a Ranker Gifted that they were getting weaker.
"I already stopped drinking it after seeing the reports," a man cloaked in a black robe and a skull mask spoke. This person held the rank of 7th strongest Gifted in Asia, going by the codename Dark Shadow.
One woman couldn't help but smile after hearing his words.
"Hey, one of our targets has the same power as you, right? I saw the video, and some black substance was absorbing the cannons like it was nothing," the woman spoke up with a giggle. She was wearing a daring red dress made of flexible material that traced the contours of her body. She held the rank of 10th Gifted in Asia, codenamed Helena.
"Those are not shadows," He shook his head .
"What do you mean?" she asked with a curious tone. She was aware that Dark Shadow had the ability to absorb non living things in the shadow realm; he could even travel through it. Its only weakness was the requirement for a shadow to activate the power, and staying in the shadow realm for too long could be fatal due to the lack of air.
"Those are actually blackholes or wormholes," Dark Shadow replied. "Listen up, unlike my power, that thing could suck and kill everyone here. We should be more careful with that individual ,rather than the guy who can summon a giant ethereal monster," he clarified.
Silence enveloped the room after his declaration.
"Don't worry; the person with the blackhole ability was our main target to begin with," Zhang reassured everyone.
