100 Fighting an Atrox Wave Champion (II) Levi and Beelze were able to calm their breathing and regain some strength while Cain fought against the Atrox Wave Champion. They were exhausted but still had enough Wave inside their bodies to fight. The duo looked at each other and nodded, ready to join the fray and help Cain against the Atrox Wave Champion, when his voice reached their minds through the A.I. Chips. “Do not enter the fight yet. Take advantage of every second you have to regain as much strength as possible. I can not depend on only my blows to finish the Atrox, and I am already preparing something special. However, for it to work, I will need the help of you two.” Detailed instructions of when and what they should do reached Levi and Beelze’s minds, and a sense of utter awe assaulted the duo’s hearts. Cain sending messages through the A.I. Chip despite the Atrox’s jamming device was not surprising for them since they knew his hacking ability and were very close. What shocked Levi and Beelze was that even while fighting an Atrox Wave Champion, Cain still had the mind power to give them instructions. The plan Cain showed them was extremely dangerous, but Levi and Beelze were ready to die a few minutes ago, so the threat of danger could not affect their hearts. ‘What kind of monster did I befriend!’ That thought crossed Levi’s mind as he smiled, and a burning fighting spirit emerged in his heart. This forest no longer needed to be his final battlefield; they could kill the Atrox Wave Champion. The duo followed Cain’s instruction as if it was a divine decree, engraving each word in their minds and using every second to regain as much strength as possible. Whether they left this forest alive depended on if they could fulfill that task. Cain continued fighting against the Atrox, unleashing everything he had. He connected a blow to the temple, paralyzing the Atrox for a moment before gathering all of his Astral Wave in his elbow and sending a ferocious strike. ..... The Atrox puked blood once again as that elbow strike harmed his heart. As he saw the human rushing toward him, a sense of absolute rage overwhelmed him, but that was not all since there was also worry in his gaze. Since Cain reached this place, people outside were aware of his presence. The Atrox Wave Champion knew he was nothing but an ant compared to the Godslayer Humankind’s powerhouses, so he needed to finish this fight soon and run away. The Atrox clenched his teeth as he summoned his Wave Cloak once again. He felt his heart would shatter to pieces at any second but endured the pain and went even further, morphing the Astral Wave into black lightning. Levi and Beelze’s eyes widen with dread as they see that black lightning since they know it granted the Atrox a speed so immense that they could barely follow it with their eyes. Even if the Atrox could only maintain that state for a second, it would be more than enough to send a killing blow! The duo was not able to speak a word before the Atrox vanished from their sight, appearing beside Cain before firing a monstrously powerful right punch. “CAIN!” Beelze could not help but shout Cain’s name as fear and worry overwhelmed her. “BOOM!” That punch had so much strength that it unleashed a blast the moment it connected. However, there was no happiness in the Atrox’s eyes. That punch could have obliterated the head of a Level 4 Wave Warrior, but not only did it fail to kill Cain, this one did not even move. Thanks to the [Basic Virtual Simulation] tool, Cain could predict the trajectory of the Atrox’s punch. He used his left arm as a shield, gathering 90% of his Astral Wave in it and using the other 10% on his feet, helping him remain stable. Of course, Cain did not come intact, as that blow shattered most of the bones on his left arm. Although he could still move the extremity, placing any strength in it was impossible. ‘A fair exchange.’ That was the only thought that appeared in Cain’s mind as he felt the state of his left arm. The pain and everything else did not matter. The Atrox had yet to overcome the shock that his sure-kill strike failed when his Rebirth Heart began to convulse, generating a horrible pain that deactivated his Wave Cloak and paralyzed him. Cain’s eyes narrowed as he saw the backlash affecting the Atrox. His killing intent exploded, and he gathered every ounce of Astral Wave on his right arm. What Cain did was extremely dangerous as it left his body unprotected, but it also allowed his offensive power to reach an incredible level. Not willing to waste a single second, Cain unleashed a barrage of strikes with his right arm. Every single punch had an immense amount of Astral Wave and lightning charged in it. The martial skill in those punches was superb, with every punch landing right on top of the Atrox’s heart, weakening the Astral Wave’s reservoir more and more. Cain carried with that onslaught for over twenty seconds, unleashing more than sixty full-power punches on the Atrox Wave Champion. Half of those strikes would have been enough to kill the Horn-Flame Boar Leader, but the Atrox remained alive, and while his wounds weakened his life force, it was still far from depleted. Cain saw on the virtual simulation that the Atrox was about to overcome the backlash. Instead of moving back to avoid a counter-attack, he allowed his Wave Cloak to cover his entire body before gathering massive lightning on his right palm. The Atrox’s eyes grew sharp as he regained control over his body, but before he could attack, a hand settled over his eye sockets and blasted a massive amount of lightning. “AHHHHH!” The Atrox screamed in pain as that lightning scorched his eyes, but he still managed to send a punch. Cain managed to direct most of his Astral Wave into his stomach before the Atrox’s punch would land, but the strike still made him puke blood and pushed him away. He used all his strength to remain on his feet, and while severely harmed, he could still fight. However, unlike before, when he would never leave the Atrox’s side for more than a second, Cain did not instantly dash back into the fray. The Atrox’s vision was blurry and bloody, but he could still see Cain’s figure a few meters in front of him. He saw that the human was wounded and intended to take advantage of that, but someone grabbed his right arm before he could even take a step. Confusion appeared on the Atrox’s face as he looked to the side and saw the human that used explosions grab his arm and pull down with great strength. Before the Atrox could even process that, the female human appeared on his left, less than five meters away from him, and unleashed an ice storm that froze his wounded legs. The Atrox had almost forgotten about Levi and Beelze since the duo was so weak that he never considered them a threat, but things had changed. His wounds were so severe that the two humans were strong enough to contain him. Although Beelze and Levi could temporarily restrain him, the Atrox knew he would manage to free himself in a matter of seconds, but the moment the duo held his right arm and froze his wounded legs, a feeling of doom assaulted him. The Atrox looked ahead and saw the red ring in Cain’s left hand starting to glow. As a Wave Champion, his battle experience was massive, and he noticed the Wave Artifact in the form of a red ring a while ago. He was not too worried before since it seemed that it could fire a Level 5 Spell at most. It had the power to harm him severely but was far from enough to kill him. Nevertheless, now that the Atrox saw the red ring, he noticed how the Wave Artifact began destabilizing, and its energy grew stronger. The Atrox looked at the duo holding onto him as if their life depended on it and understood that Cain did not intend to fire the spell inside the red ring but destabilized the Wave Artifact, making it explode with much greater power. Cain looked at the ring about to explode on his left hand and knew he would suffer a massive wound, but there was not even a wisp of hesitation on his face as he focused on the Atrox’s chest and flashed forward with a bloody smile on his face. A feeling of absolute doom assaulted the Atrox as he saw Cain about to reach him. Three Wave Warriors that had yet to reach Level 4 were about to kill him. The [Basic Virtual Simulation] tool had exceptional foretelling capabilities, but it could not predict what a life form could achieve when pushed to death’s door. “AHHHHH!” The Atrox roared and unleashed a small stream of Astral Wave. It would be too little to free his right arm or legs, so he concentrated all on his frozen left arm. Agony appeared on the Atrox’s face as his muscles and tendons shattered due to their frozen state, but he managed to move the left arm and then gather black lightning into his hand, making a blade!
