Might pointed at the picture of Glacia, as he started talking about her.
"Glacia has Cryokinesis, which allows her to manipulate ice and make complex shapes with it. She also has a 'Weakening Aura' which weakens anyone fighting her over a period of time. These two abilities makes her a Range Type with her long range ice spikes and a Domain Type, as her Ice and 'Weakening Aura' can affect a large areas around her. She was also a tentative Strongman Type, as her Ice Armor can give her high levels of durability."
"Well, that Ice Armor did not hold up against us last night." Alex said as he tilted his head. "I think we can do the same thing to her later too."
"Well, let me tell you that every time Glacia was defeated by someone, she just comes back stronger than before." Might said as he shook his head. "I can see that happening later, so we should still be careful."
Might then pointed to a picture of a man wearing a crisp businessman suit coupled with a red tie.
The man was also wearing dark glasses and a black hat, along with a cane on his right hand.
Alex could not help but gape as he realized that this man was giving him some 'Godfather' vibes.
"This man is the Supervillain Mafioso." Might said as he tapped his picture way too hard than necessary. "Unlike Glacia who prefers to fight alone, Mafioso prefers to fight by the members of his Mafia Group, as his powers rely on them."
"So, some sort of 'I go strong when I have more allies type' then?" Alex mused as he looked at the ruined picture of Mafioso. "Is that what you are pertaining to?"
"Well nope." Might said as he shook his head. "Mafioso's power is more potent than that. Simply speaking, Mafioso can give the members of his Mafia group minor powers, which are weaker compared to normal superpowers. These minor powers will either give the Mafia members slightly higher strength or faster healing. Some members could even get weak Ranger or Domain Abilities."
Might then frowned as he continued talking.
"Of course these is a catch from receiving Mafioso's powers. And the catch is that if you accepted Mafioso's powers, you will be extremely loyal to him. You will be thinking of serving him forever in his Mafia group. Because of that catch, every member of Mafioso's Mafia group were all extremely loyal to him, even in their death."
"That… is a dangerous power, especially when a Mafia group has it." Alex commented as he realized that Mafioso is indeed a Supervillain.
Even if the powers given out by Mafioso were weak, this will not matter if there was a lot of people receiving this weak powers!
Yes, a Hero might be able to take some of these powered Mafia Members, but once their numbers increase, it will be hard for a Hero to win!
And add the fact that these powered Mafia members were extremely loyal to Mafioso, and that is the recipe for one powerful and intimidating group!
"Because of the fierce loyalty of his mafia members, Mafioso were able to elude capture by making some of his Mafia members do unspeakable things just to keep him free." Might said as he gritted his teeth.
"…" Alex was sure that when Might was saying 'unspeakable things', he's referring to things that no normal human being would do. Only those affected by Mafioso's power can do these 'unspeakable things'.
"….."Alex stayed quiet as he stared at Might, as he saw Might turning purple from anger.
"This bastard should be-"
"Might, calm yourself down right now." Magical Girl said as she approached Might. "I know you are pissed at Mafioso and that you want him in jail. But you should remember that we are in an important mission right now!"
"Yes, I know about that." Might said as he took a deep breath. "Do not worry about me. I will not let my emotion cloud my judgement. I'm… better than that."
"Good. Just keep it cook ok?" Magical Girl said as she shifted her gaze to Alex. She then approached Alex quickly, giving him no room to retreat.
"…" Alex could see Alina tensing as Magical Girl approached him.
"So… do you have any questions about those two villains?" Magical Girl said as she placed her hand on Alex's arm. "I will entertain those questions for you."
"I do not have any questions for them right now." Alex said as he deftly moved his arm away from Magical Girl. He could feel Alina's glare at him lessening as he did that move. "I think your information is sufficient about them."
"Is that so..." Magical Girl did not show her disappointment with Alex's 'rejection' to her. She only flitted back to her position as Might started talking again.
"That's the information that we have on the two Supervillains. As for the group that broke Glacia out, we only have limited information on them, as their attack was swift. So far, what our agents could only deduce was that one of their members was definitely an expert in technology, as the camera feed disappeared during the break-out, and it only reappeared after the break out."
Might proceeded to write the word 'possible Technokinetic' on the whiteboard.
"The second thing that our members deduced was that one of their members was some sort of Chemist, as signs of chemical use were detected on the whole prison. Sleeping gas, corrosive acids and even flesh-eating liquids were seen after the break-out."
The words 'possible Chemical Builder' were then written by Might on the board.
"As for the remaining members of the Villain Group, they were suspected to have some kind of Reacher or Domain Abilities, but we are not sure yet on what kind as they deliberately held back from making a move."
"Well, at least we have some info from them." Alex said as he mused about what he heard. "That's better than lunging in blindly. So, how should we engage them?"
"The engagement plan that we have is as follows:" This time, it was Tetra who talked, as if he decided to use his imposing presence to explain everything.
"Because Mafioso's compound was filled with sensors that can detect our arrival, sneaking in is useless. So, we will rush towards their area in full force. Once we arrive there, I and Rocket will use our powers to disable all the traps in his compound. Once they were disabled, I will then engage on Mafioso's powered members. As for the SHA Hero Team and the Travelers, they will focus on fighting against Glacia and the new Villain Group. Signum will also be joining them on that end. We will continue that battle plan unless the situation changes. Do you all understand that?"
"Yes!" Alex and the others replied as they felt the anticipation of the upcoming fight.
"In that case, we shall set out… in 5 minutes then!" Tetra declared as he adjusted his helmet. "Once I give the signal, all of us will start our rush towards his compound! If you can't move fast, just stick with those that can move and carry you all! Do you all understand?"
"Yes Sir!"
**********************
5 minutes later.
Alex and his companions were all standing straight right now, as the SHA Hero team were assuming imposing stances.
As for Tetra himself he was standing in front of them, with his right arm raised high in the air.
"On the count of 3." Tetra said as he started his countdown.
"1."
Alex adjusted his breathing pattern as he focused on optimizing his battle state. Alina just gripped her sword as she grabbed Alex's hand tightly.
"2"
Alex's Abyss Sprites rode in his shoulders, with their faces full of excitement. The prospect of fighting seems to have lit a fire inside them. Queen Mother on the other hand looked extremely calm. As for Lauren, she was being piggy-backed by Queen Mother, showing the apparent fact that she will be carried by Queen Mother. Alex smiled a little as this sight, thinking that it was picture-worthy.
"3!"
"Boom!"
After Tetra said this number, everyone blasted out of the ground as they rushed towards their location.
Alex shifted in his tentacle form as he used his EM Manipulation to make himself fly.
Alex manipulated the Magnetic Field of the planet, allowing him to 'fly' along it. Sufficed to say, this kind of flight was enjoyable to Alex.
As for Alina, Alex could see her stepping on the air, as if she was threading through some stairs.
"Yes, I am making space stairs right now, Alex." Alina said as she saw Alex looking at her. "Please don't make some puns about this, ok?"
"I promise." Alex said as he gave Alina a sly smile. "Well, I won't make any puns, as long as you don't STAIR at me."
"Argh!"
After having his fun with Alina, Alex then looked at Queen Mother.
Queen Mother certainly did not go for subtlety, as she created a flying seed prototype on her back. This prototype allowed Queen Mother and Lauren to float in the air.
After looking at his companions, Alex then looked at how the SHA Heroes were doing.
Might was already fine, as he can fly by himself. Magical Girl seems to be the same too, as her glowing clothes seemed to allow her to fly.
It was the other SHA Heroes that have their unique way of flying.
In Deporter's case, she was using her blasting power on herself.
Everytime Deporter's body gets into contact with the ground, she was using her power to blast herself into the sky at an angle that will allow her to move forward.
And when Deporter falls back to the ground, she will just blast herself to the air again, repeating the process.
Minotaur on the other hand was not flying at all. He was running in his Minotaur Form, and from what Alex can see, his Minotaur Form is quite fast on the ground.
As for Rocket, he was RIDING A MOTHERF***ING ROCKET.
Even Alex could not believe what he saw. A big ass rocket just suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and above that rocket was Rocket himself.
While Alex was shaking his head from that, he decided to look at Medieval, with him wondering on how will that guy be able to keep up with them.
"…" It was lucky for Alex that he saw Rocket riding a rocket, as what he saw with Medieval was just as surprising as with Rocket.
Medieval was riding an EFFING HOT AIR BALLOON.
And not just a normal hot air balloon. For whatever reason there is, this Hot Air Balloon was moving at the speeds that no normal air balloon should have.
"That is both cool and weird." Alex muttered to himself as he watched the balloon zip past by him.
"That is what I feel when I look at them too." Alina commented beside Alex. "But at least they don't make horrible puns like you."
"...…."
Once he was done looking at SHA Heroes, Alex decided to look at Tetra's movement.
To his relief, he saw that Tetra was flying quite normally by himself. There's no weird shenanigans with the Hero, and for some reason, that makes Alex feel somewhat relieved."
"That is Mafioso's compound! Everyone, prepare to fight!" Tetra declared as a large ancestral mansion appeared in Alex's eyes.
The ancestral mansion seemed to be made up of antique and expensive wood, with its walls and windows showing a certain elegance. The roofs had some patches on them, although it only adds to the mansion's overall charm.
Now that Alex looked at the ancestral mansion, he realized that Mafioso had some good taste. Too bad this house will surely be wrecked this time.
After they received Tetra's announcement, Alex's Team and the SHA Heroes prepared themseleves tor the landing.
But before they could even approach the inside of the ancestral mansion, countless attacks suddenly blotted the sky!
The Heroes looked at the attacks with dismay, while Alex developed a sinking feeling to himself.
Even if their enemy detected their arrival while they were rushing to Mafioso's compound, there is no way that they could amass this many attackers.
Gathering this many attackers was just impossible given the limited window of time.
"Don't tell me.." Alex's eyes narrowed as he realized the only reason for the situation that they are in right now.
"It's an ambush!" Alex shouted as he stopped in his flight. "These f**kers knew about what we plan to do, and they used it to ambush us!"
