Chapter 128 - 128 No mercy

128 No mercy

The way Young Elephant and Young Monkey reacted to Great Tiger’s skull cracking was very different. Absolute terror invaded the woman’s heart while the man’s eyes burst with pure rage.

“Bastard!” Young Elephant roared with rage as his Astral Wave burst with immense strength, making a golden light cover his entire body.

Cain saw how the man managed to overcome the compulsion and dashed toward him with immense strength. He was in no position to counter or dodge that attack, so he could only block it.

However, that was not all Cain did. As he raised his guard and focused his Astral Wave in his arms, he turned toward Young Monkey.

“Stop breathing.”

Emotions have an effect on a person’s willpower. Anger could drive your focus to the point that you could break a weak compulsion, while fear could make you even more susceptible to it.

Young Elephant’s burning rage allowed his willpower to rise to the point where he could resist Cain’s control, but Young Monkey was so terrified that the moment she heard those words, her lungs stopped working.

Young Elephant did not notice the plight of his ally. There was nothing more in his eyes than the young man in front of him. He knew deep inside that the only way to come out of this place alive was to kill that person.

“?Boom!”

.....

A blast echoed through the forest as Young Elephant’s fist clashed with Cain’s arms, sending this one flying away.

Cain’s eyes remained calm, but he was inwardly surprised by the strength of that attack.

‘That yellow light seems to improve his body’s hardness and increase the weight behind each punch.’

As he figured out the enemy’s skill, Cain rotated his body mid-air, recovering control before landing on his feet.

Young Elephant was shocked by Cain’s martial skills, but he threw away all those useless thoughts and dashed forward, full of killing intent.

“Stop moving,” Cain uttered that command again, but it had no effect other than making Young Elephant frown.

“Your tricks will no longer work on me!” Young Elephant shouted, trying to give himself more courage while the golden light that covered his body grew even stronger.

Cain noticed that the enemy’s mental fortitude had risen to a level where this one could resist the compulsion of a 1 Star Elementary Hypnosis Master. Although it would make things harder, he showed no fear toward an enemy like Young Elephant.

His Wave Burst went down to 1000%. That diminished his raw power but allowed him to fight for a longer time.

Young Elephant’s fury grew stronger when he saw Cain’s Astral Wave output diminished. He thought thst the young man was looking down on him.

“Die!” Young Elephant sent a vicious punch toward the boy’s head, showing surprisingly good martial skills.

Unfortunately for Young Elephant, Cain easily dodged the blow, and things did not end there. Cain used Young Elephant’s momentum to counter with his own punch to the head.

Young Elephant felt his head would fly away from his body, but he clenched his teeth and sent another attack. Sadly things repeat themselves.

Cain countered every attack that Young Elephant fired. The Level 4 Astral Wave Warrior had immense strength and durability but severely lacked speed.

Having lower speed than your opponent did not mean you could not touch them, as you could use superior martial skills, feints, or attack from blind spots.

However, the [A.I. Chip Module] generated a small virtual screen in Cain’s vision, showing him a prediction of Young Elephant’s following movements.

Cain used it for the first time against the Atrox Wave Champion, and there was no way he would let such a powerful tool go to waste. He had even given it a name.

Virtual Sight.

Cain continued countering Young Elephant’s punches, adding the strength of this one to his own attacks. After a few minutes, he saw the man’s eyes beginning to lose focus due to all the blows to the head.

He dodged another strike but did not fire a counter this time. Instead, he lowered his body and struck Young Elephant’s knee with his elbow.

Young Elephant’s eyes widened with pain as he felt his right knee almost shattering due to that blow. However, he endured the agony and used that same leg to strike back.

That attack surprised Cain as Virtual Sight showed him that Young Elephant’s stance would crumble after that strike.

Of course, Cain did not blindly trust what Virtual Sight showed him since he knew the predictions were not 100% certain. He moved back and put his arms in front of his chest just before that kick sent him flying away.

Young Elephant would have wanted to carry on with his attacks, but the damage he had received was too much, and his right leg no longer worked. He could not rest for even a second before Cain flashed back to the fray and landed a ferocious kick on his jaw.

Cain saw Young Elephant’s eyes grow dim after that kick due to the brain trauma and immediately continued with another kick toward the temple.

That second kick sent Young Elephant crashing to the ground before a third kick connected to the back of his head, destroying the cervical vertebrae and cutting the spinal cord.

Cain’s deactivated his Wave Burst, Lightning Armament, and Asura Form the moment he killed Young Elephant. He kept Wave Cloak activated since it would not be wise to lower his guard in a place like this.

The battles against Great Tiger and Young Elephant were short but drained almost all of his Astral Wave and pushed him to his limit. He focused on Old Fox and saw that the man was unconscious before turning toward Young Monkey.

The woman was twitching on the ground while grabbing her neck, desperately attempting to breathe. Even if a Level 4 Wave Warrior could go for several minutes without breathing, it did not mean asphyxiation did not affect them.

Cain walked to the woman and saw the terror in her eyes that pleaded for mercy. He put his hand over her chest before whispering two words.

“Stop working.”

Young Monkey heard those words before her heart stopped beating, and she perished.
