Chapter 52: Two vs fifteen (III) Cain had just sent the Level 2 Wave Warrior with the ice shield flying away as the earth beneath his feet began to liquefy. He was honestly surprised that one of the criminals could do that. The criminal that did it was the only Level 1 Wave Warrior conscious. He had pierced his hands in the ground and used his Essence Wave to control the earth and release the spell beneath Cain’s legs. ‘His Wave Talent is mediocre, but it seems his mastery over the Four Basic Wave Arts is the strongest of the six.’ Cain had initially thought that the Level 1 Wave Warrior would be the easiest, which is why he focused his attention on the strongest of those at Level 2. Unfortunately, that proved to be a mistake. The other criminals smiled, ready to rain down their spells on him. ‘I need to be more careful. Well, it is not like I can not overcome it.’ As those thoughts crossed Cain’s mind, his Astral Wave had already filled the Light Boots, allowing him to stomp with so much strength that he was able to overcome the swampy ground. That was not all, as he directed his body toward the Level 1 Essence Wave Warrior. The smile on the criminal’s face vanished, and before he could summon a wall of earth, Cain’s body clashed against him. ..... Cain’s weight with his armor surpassed 100 kg, and his Wave Cloak, in a state of almost 200% Wave Burst, exponentially enhanced the hardness of his body. One could imagine the fate of the Level 1 Essence Wave Warrior after colliding with that at a speed of over 200 km/h. Cain sent the man flying over 20 meters, and whether he was still alive or not was hard to say. However, that did not matter to him, and he sent a kick to a middle-aged criminal that was near him. Unfortunately for Cain, a fireball clashed on his chest before he could connect the attack. The criminals smiled as they saw that and were sure the attack would incapacitate the black demon long enough for them to counterattack. Nevertheless, their hopes shattered the next second. That fireball that could have exploded an Old World’s car barely pushed Cain five meters before this one stamped the ground and regained control over his body. That fireball was powerful, and it could have done real damage to any other newly Level 2 Astral Wave Warrior, but not only was Cain in a state of Wave Burst, but his Nullity Armor focused on defense. Cain felt a metallic taste on his mouth, and viciousness appeared in his eyes as he flashed back to the fray. “Fucking monster, die!” One of the criminals shouted in fear as his Wave morphed into five arrows of air and shot toward Cain. Cain did not back down or stop his march. Instead, he dodged the arrows by getting down on all fours and, in that position, continued marching forward. A criminal saw with horror how Cain’s body propelled toward him like a spear. A shoulder collided with his stomach, making him puke blood and thrusting him to the ground, right before a punch almost cracked his skull and sent him into unconsciousness. Cain did not lose his momentum and jumped forward, sending a kick into a criminal that was trying to fire a spear of earth. With that one, he had already incapacitated five criminals. He then turned to the last Level 2 Essence Wave Warrior and dashed toward this one. “Wait, I surrender!” The criminal screamed and raised his hands, signaling he no longer wanted to fight but was answering his plea of a fist to the temple. Cain did not contain himself. That punch sent the criminal crashing to the ground, and there was no doubt this one would suffer a severe concussion. “Well done, brat. That garbage was trying to mobilize his Essence Wave quietly and would have surely attacked if you stopped.” Cain heard Apex’s voice in his mind and nodded. He did not know whether the criminal was willing to surrender or trying to trick him, but there was no way he would lower his guard in a life and death battle just because of some words. He acted the same when he fought the Hell Devil female in the Military Academy Secret Trial. When it came to an enemy, their race made no difference for him. After taking care of the six criminals that managed to escape the trailer and using the [Basic Scan Force Field] to ensure the others were unconscious, he turned toward the battle between Levi and the two Level 3 Essence Wave Warriors. Immediately, Cain adopted a solemn expression as he saw the might of that battle. The old man had a large staff that allowed him to fire earth spells fast, while the middle-aged man had a blade bathed in a green wind. On the other hand, flames flowed through Levi’s armor, and explosions would blast from his feet, allowing him to move all over the battlefield.
