"Kill everybody!" Those words carried a sense of brutality and decisiveness that affected all those who heard them, although in different ways. The students felt an overwhelming fear while a slaughter intent flooded the soldiers' hearts and minds. Not even a second went by before Levi and Orin flashed toward the students, full of killing intent, and it did not take long for the others to follow along. Now that Cain was gone, chasing after Dominic, the student force's overall power was not inferior to that of the soldiers, but their fighting spirit was gone, and the only thing on their minds was to escape. It was not hard to figure out how a battle between a group full of killing intent and courage against one that saw no chance of victory would go. The fight did not last more than ten minutes; in that window of time, four students perished, and the rest managed to escape with grave wounds. Antony and the rest were taking care of the students' Wave Artifacts and space ring when they saw Cain returning. There was no need to ask how the battle went since they saw him holding Dominic's severed right arm. The scion must have managed to run away, but not without suffering severe wounds and losing one of his limbs. Although regenerating an arm would not be that difficult for someone with Dominic's resources, they were in a secret dimension with no connection to the outside world, so they doubted he would manage to fix it. All the soldiers adopted respectful stances the moment they saw Cain and allowed him to take whatever he might want from the spoils of the battle against the students. It was their power and help that saved their life, but even more important, his scheming and ruthless mind drew awe and terror into their souls. Cain was not humble and took a good portion of the red orbs and some wave crystals. He had no interest in the Wave Artifacts, drugs, or anything else that the students left since he had better things. After that, the soldiers saw how Cain buried his machete in the soldiers' corpses, draining the blood out of these ones in order to restore his Blood Energy and vitality. Although Dominic was wounded during the chase, the scion was still very powerful and skillful with the sword, so Cain did receive some injuries and depleted most of his energy pool. The dimension might be weakening all those youths' bodies, but it did not truly diminish their vitality, so Cain felt a rush of blood essence through his body that equaled that of Wave Champion Beast. The soldiers saw all that but did not say a word and waited silently. Instinctively they saw Cain as their leader and were waiting for his instructions on how to advance. Cain did not take long to recover most of his energy, and his body was at full vitality after devouring all the blood in those corpses. He noticed how the soldiers were looking at him. Just as he was about to give them instructions, his eyes narrowed, and he saw one student alive on the battlefield. Antony almost trembled when Cain's red eyes focused on him. He immediately understood the reason for that gaze. A dying young woman covered in blood was not far away from them. "Are there any questions?" Levi considered things for a moment before raising his hands. "I have one, but it is unrelated to battle formation and strategy." Cain glanced at Levi and could figure out what this one wanted to ask. It was something all soldiers wanted to know but were too afraid to ask in case they offended him. Antony, William, Lurin, Levi, Orin, and the others could not prevent their minds from wondering how he overcame the dimension's weakening force after losing his machete. Cain stared at the soldiers for a moment before nodding and making his red force field manifest around his body. "This dimension weakens us by affecting the vibrational frequency of our bodies and Waves." That piece of information alone was impressive, and they guessed that Cain was able to come to that conclusion thanks to his Ego Wave. Still, that did not explain how he was able to counter it. Cain then raised his index finger, and this one transformed into a blood gem and unleashed a small vibrational force. "Thanks to my training, I have knowledge of vibrational powers. Although somewhat shallow, it was high enough to allow me to learn the vibrational frequency that my machete uses to counter that of this dimension. Then my Ego Wave forced my cell to replicate my machete's vibrational frequency, allowing me to use part of my power after losing the weapon." There was awe in the soldiers' eyes as they understood a little of just how amazing the Ego Wave of someone at Mind Over Body was, but they were also disappointed since none of them could do something like that. After that, there were no more questions, and everybody moved out. Cain remained with Antony as their battle style covered the weak points of the other and had already developed excellent teamwork. Around a week after the clash with Dominic and Amos' group, Cain felt a change in his body. The weakening force made it hard to discern the advance of his cultivation, but the [A.I. Chip Module] took care of that. The duo had finished taking care of a powerful Sword Monster and moved to a safe location before Cain adopted a meditative position on a branch and unleashed his Ego Wave. "My Ego Wave will cover an arena of two hundred meters around us. Stay one hundred meters in front of me, so you can stop anyone from coming near." Antony heard that and then saw the red force field soon become invisible. He understood that Cain was about to advance to Level 8.
