The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

99 Fighting an Atrox Wave Champion (I)

Cain took a deep breath as he focused on the Atrox, blocking everything else. He went through all the information that the [Pseudo Cellular Analysis] tool gave him about his enemy, including the condition of the body and inner organs.

‘Of all the Atrox’s wounds, the worst is in his Rebirth Heart. The damage is so massive that it can no longer release its Astral Wave without worsening its state. There are also injuries in his legs that greatly limit his speed.’ Cain’s eyes were cold as he planned how to make the most of the information the system recollected. Things did not end there, as he came up with another idea.

‘Apex, can you use the [Basic Virtual Simulation] tool to show me a live simulation of the Atrox’s next move?’

Usually, [Basic Virtual Simulation] could only be used before the fight as Cain’s mind could not work fast enough to see the simulation and act on it during a battle. However, his current speed of thought was much faster than his body, so there was a chance his plan could work.

Of course, that was only on the premise that the [Basic Virtual Simulation] tool could predict the Atrox’s movements fast enough.

Apex understood the severity of the situation and provided Cain with every bit of help possible.

“An hour ago, the [A.I. Chip Module] power would not have been enough to fulfill that task, but now that you reached the First Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power, things have changed.”

Cain understood the meaning of Apex’s words. Unlike the other modules, the [A.I. Chip Module] power depended on the strength of his soul, and since his willpower is part of his soul, a rise on the Ego Eternal Path of Power helped this one.

After a second, Cain saw a small transparent screen appear in the right corner of his vision. It showed the Atrox, but this image was a virtual simulation that would predict his movements.

.....

Since the Atrox was an intelligent life form, the simulation predictions would not be flawless, but they would still help Cain immensely.

Just like Cain was analyzing the Atrox, this one also did the same with his enemy. Cain’s kick pushed the Atrox almost twenty meters away from Beelze but did minor damage, so this one remained standing without a problem.

The Atrox’s eyes widened as he detected that the human in front of him was a Level 2 Astral Wave Warrior, and the reason for the immense Astral Wave coming from this one was an outrageous Wave Burst.

A flash of enlightenment appeared in the Atrox’s eyes as he noticed the red light coming from Cain’s eyes. Although he attempted to hide it, envy appeared on his face.

Suddenly, the Atrox’s face contorted in agony, and a horrible pain forced him to rescind his Astral Wave, as his Rebirth Heart could not endure the pressure.

The loss of the Wave Cloak drastically reduced the Atrox’s physical might, but this one still had more than enough brute strength to make every punch deadly.

Like Cain, the Atrox took a deep breath, and his eyes grew colder and sharp. He considered the human in front of him a proper opponent, unlike the other two, which were just pests in his mind.

Cain saw the Atrox walking toward him, not wasting any time with meaningless words, which worked perfectly for him. Even though his Synergy helped him diminish the amount of Astral Wave used, he was still employing a 1500% Wave Burst, so his energy pool would deplete very soon.

Blue lightning coated Cain’s arms and legs, and that same power reinforced his nervous system, allowing his reaction speed to reach an impressive level. The Atrox, on the other hand, had no ability activated, but he had tempered every part of his body.

The Goodslayer Human and the Immortus Atrox walked toward the other with complete calm and serenity, showing no sign that they were about to enter a life-and-death battle.

The instant they were at arm’s length, they burst into battle, attacking with pure killing intent. The sole goal in their hearts was to kill the other.

Cain saw the Atrox firing a blow toward his head with enough power to shatter every bone. While his speed of thought allowed him to see that attack, that did not mean his body would be fast enough to dodge it.

Luckily, Cain had already predicted the Atrox’s attack, thanks to the virtual simulation in the corner of his vision. That allowed him to move his head before the Atrox even fired the attack, allowing him to dodge the blow narrowly.

The Atrox’s eyes widened as he saw the human dodging his attack. He was much faster than his enemy, yet this one still managed to evade his fist, and things did not end there.

Cain moved forward, sending a kick with all his strength toward the Atrox’s right knee.

Although Cain’s strength was formidable for a Level 2 Astral Wave Warrior, that kick lacked the brute power to harm the Atrox.

However, Cain’s kick landed on one of the many gaping holes in the Atrox’s right leg. By taking advantage of the old wounds, Cain’s attack weakened the Atrox’s balance.

The Atrox felt his right leg bending when another kick landed on his jaw. Like before, Cain’s attack lacked brute power but managed to shake the Atrox’s brain slightly.

The Atrox’s vision grew blurry for a moment, hindering his ability to react, and before he could get hold of himself, he felt a heavy blow land on his chest, right on top of his heart, that sent him flying away.

His eyes regained their focus mid-fly, allowing the Atrox to land on his feet, but there was a sense of confusion and shock on his face. He did not understand how Cain’s brute power rose to such a shocking level that it managed to send him flying away.

However, the answer presented itself for the Atrox immediately, as he saw how the human had gathered every ounce of Astral Wave on his right fist.

Cain’s Wave Burst was currently at 1500%, and his flawless Synergy Flow avoided any leak. Gathering all that Astral Wave into his right fist allowed his punch to reach the destructive power of Level 5!

The Atrox’s body trembled, and he could not resist puking a mouthful of blood!

Shock, absolute and utter shock appeared on the Atrox’s face when he saw that blood coming from his mouth.

He was an Early Wave Champion from the Atrox Immortus Race, yet a Level 2 Wave Warrior from the Godslayer Humankind made him puke blood!

Honor meant everything for the Atrox Immortus Race, and this was the greatest shame of his life. If he did not crush the human right now, he had no right to return home.

A burning rage emerged from the Atrox, unleashing an aura that could freeze the heart of anyone. However, Cain’s only answer to that wrath was greater killing intent.

Cain flashed forward, arching his back at the last second, dodging the Atrox’s kick that aimed at his neck before sending a powerful punch to the right knee, worsening the wound in it even more.

The Atrox felt his kneecap almost shatter, but he resisted the pain and sent another attack at the top of Cain’s head.

The attack came from a blind spot, but Cain again showed incredible martial skill and battle awareness, dodging the punch and countering it with his own.

An impressive display of martial skills started next to a toxic lake as a human and an Atrox attempted to kill each other. Despite the human’s weaker body, this one managed to come victorious in each encounter.

Of course, if anyone thought Cain was having an easy time, then it was clear they were not really paying attention. He was pushing his mind and body to the absolute limit, with his Ego Wave reaching such a high level that blood began to leak from his eyes.

Had he not entered the First Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power, his brain would have shut down due to the information overload.

As for his body, even with the tempering of the Blood Refinement Art, using a 1500% Wave Burst generated so much stress that his inner organs were beginning to shut down.

Despite the protection of the Nullity Armor, there were all sorts of lacerations and cuts on Cain’s skin. He had managed to dodge all the Atrox’s attacks, but some still managed to brush him, leaving those wounds.

If a brush of the Atrox’s attack could leave those types of injuries, one could imagine what a point-blank strike could do to Cain.

Cain faced immense danger every second of the fight, and a single mistake would be enough to end his life, but his eyes showed serenity. He followed his nature as he entered this life-and-death battle; whatever happened, he would face it without regret
