Chapter 606: Belle and Charli's Inhuman Abilities (First Update)
Chapter 606: Belle and Charli's Inhuman Abilities (First Update)
"This is all thanks to Coulson and the others, but it's not a big issue."
Jerry smiled and recounted the discussion with Coulson to Tony.
"So, you don't need to worry about what happens next. Coulson and I will handle it. You just need to call Aisha and Hass to inform them about the Inhuman situation, telling them not to panic and to wait patiently for the transformation to complete."
"Alright, with you helping Coulson, it seems the Avengers don't need to get involved."
After understanding the entire situation, Tony called Aisha and Hass one after the other, informing them about the Inhuman situation and assuring them that S.H.I.E.L.D. would handle everything. Once Belle and Charli's transformations were complete, they were to report their Inhuman abilities.
In another villa, after seeking help from Tony, Aisha and Hass were pacing anxiously around Belle and little Charli.
Jerry, who had been observing the scene, suggested to Hass with a worried look:
"I don't think this is working. Why don't we take Belle and Charli to the hospital?"
"No, if we touch them, they might shatter. Besides, this situation is clearly unusual. I've already contacted the Avengers using my authority as director, and they said they would send someone to investigate. We shouldn't move them."
Hass quickly interjected.
Aisha nodded in agreement.
"I think Dad is right. We should wait."
"Since that's the case, let's wait."
Jerry nodded in response.
A short while later, Aisha suddenly paused and went to the bathroom. When she came out, the worried expression on her face had vanished, clearly because Tony had informed her that Belle and little Charli were fine and just needed to be left alone.
As Aisha returned, Hass's phone rang. He hurried upstairs to take the call and came back down with a much more relaxed demeanor.
"Don't worry. The Avengers' staff just informed me that Belle and Charli's situation is not unique. It's due to some Inhuman gene in their bodies. In short, it's not dangerous, and they might develop some superpowers after they recover. We just need to wait patiently.
However, they also stressed that this must remain confidential. Aisha and Jerry, you must not tell anyone else."
Jerry and Aisha, who were already aware of the situation, nodded in agreement.
Thus, the three of them watched anxiously as Belle and Charli's statues, waiting for the Inhuman transformation to complete.
Around eight o'clock in the evening, Belle and Charli, who had been standing motionless, finally showed signs of movement.
The stone-like layer covering Belle and Charli's bodies suddenly developed cracks, then shattered like broken porcelain, falling to the ground and turning into a pile of dust.
Belle and Charli regained consciousness.
"What's going on? Why are you all looking at me like that? Oh, why is it dark outside?"
Belle opened her eyes and looked at the three people staring at her, a puzzled expression on her face. Then, seeing the dark night outside the window, she exclaimed in surprise.
At that moment, little Charli, who was in Belle's arms, opened her eyes and, perhaps because she was hungry, started to cry loudly.
As Charli's cries filled the room, all the metal objects began to tremble slightly and then floated gently in the air.
"Control the magnetic field!"
Jerry's eyes widened as he realized what young Charli's superpower was. It was the ability to control magnetic fields. Yes, not direct control over metal, but rather indirect control through the manipulation of magnetic fields, similar to the powers of Magneto from the mutants.
However, young Charli was still just a child and could only slightly influence the magnetic field. She was far from reaching Magneto's level.
"What's happening?!"
Seeing the metal objects around her gently float into the air, Belle immediately screamed in terror. Unlike Jerry, Has, and Aisha, who were superheroes with hidden identities, Belle was just a regular elementary school teacher, albeit from a wealthy family. She was naturally more afraid of such obviously supernatural phenomena.
As Belle screamed, her body became translucent, and then a clone identical to her suddenly squeezed out of her body.
"Aaaah!!!"
Seeing an additional version of herself, Belle's scream reached an even higher pitch.
Her body then became translucent again, and another clone split off. This continued until she had produced eight clones, at which point the process finally stopped.
By this time, Belle had stopped screaming, her voice hoarse from the intensity of her shrieks.
"Clone ability, just like the Clone Woman from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Inhuman team."
Jerry looked at the nine terrified Bells in the room and immediately thought of the female Inhuman from S.H.I.E.L.D. who had the same power. Inhuman abilities weren't unique, although the chances were slim, it wasn't unheard of for the same ability to awaken in different individuals.
Belle's awakened ability was identical to that of the Clone Woman from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Inhuman team, both possessing the power to create clones. The key feature of this ability was that each clone was a physical entity, identical to the original. As long as the original and all clones weren't killed, any clone could become the original.
This ability also allowed for multitasking, with a unified mental connection, ensuring perfect coordination.
However, the weakness was clear: the combat effectiveness of the clones was entirely dependent on the Inhuman's own abilities. If the Inhuman was a skilled fighter, this ability could be quite powerful, with nine mentally linked individuals fighting together, which was far more than just the sum of their parts.
Of course, if the original had no combat skills, like Teacher Berry, the clones would still be weak. In such a case, they would only serve to excite the enemy rather than provide any real advantage. Perhaps the only benefit would be a higher chance of escaping if they split up and ran.
"Belle, calm down, calm down, calm down. This isn't scary or dangerous; it's just a superpower. Yes, try to retract your ability, and I'll explain everything to you slowly."
Has was also stunned by the sudden appearance of eight Bells in the room, but being no ordinary person, he quickly regained his composure and moved to comfort the original Belle, who was still holding young Charli and trembling.
Jerry and Aisha also approached, doing their best to help the other Bells so they wouldn't get hurt from emotional distress.
Finally, with the help of Has, Jerry, and Aisha, Belle managed to calm down and instinctively used her ability to retract all her clones.
