2025-02-18 01:19:38Christopher cracked his neck and he dashed in once more. While Christopher charged towards Oliver, Oliver noticed something in his movements.
Unlike before when he moved at tremendous speed, Christopher's pace seemed to have decreased and it took longer to close the gap than it did earlier.
Christopher finally arrived in striking distance and he swung out his clenched fist towards Oliver.
"It's not just his speed that has reduced. His attacks have also seemed to slow down." Oliver pondered internally as he lifted his two arms to block the incoming punch.
BAM!
Oliver managed to block the punch with his arms,but even if he did blocked it,it felt like he did nothing and the punch still deal lot of damage and shattered the bones in Oliver's arms. The force behind the punch also pushed Oliver few steps backwards.
"What the hell? The attack was quite slow and sluggish,how then was it able to harm me this much?" Oliver pondered internally with a shocked expression as he glanced at his arms that were now broken badly.
Christopher swiftly closed the gap before Oliver could recover, and he sent out another sluggish punch towards Oliver's head.
BAM!
Oliver was still yet to recover from the previous strike,so he was unable to dodge the incoming punch. The punch connected neatly to Oliver's face and caused him to spit out blood,and the brute strength behind the punch lifted him off the floor and sent him flying backwards.
Oliver landed on the floor with several bones in his body broken. Blood seeping out of his mouth and trickling down from his nose as he struggled to stand up from the floor.
"The passive skill won't kick in unless I'm injured badly and my HP is below 20. Dammit!" Oliver lamented internally as he heard the sounds of footsteps as Christopher began to walk towards him slowly.
Christopher grabbed his long pitch black hair and pulled him up slightly before connecting his knee to his face, shattered his nose,and knocked him down to the floor. Christopher kept kicking Oliver really hard on his chest,face, stomach, and the whole of Oliver's face was now covered in blood and even the whole floor was filled with Oliver's blood.
"You might have defeated my friends but you are no match for me! And here I was thinking you had it in you, but it turns out you are a weakling and a trash after all!" Christopher mocked with a sinister laughter as he kept kicking Oliver nonstop.
"What you don't get is that as long as I have the system by my side, I can never run out of luck." Oliver huffed as he grabbed Christopher's leg and stopped the kick in the last second.
Christopher's eyes widened in shock after Oliver caught his leg at the last second.
"He's badly injured, how is he still able to move so.. " Christopher's eyes widened the more after noticing something. "Impossible."
Right in front of his eyes, Oliver's injuries were healing up at a superhuman rate,and his once exhausted appearance was now filled with energy.
What Christopher didn't know was when he kept kicking Oliver in the chest, his Hp kept reducing, and when his HP went below 10, his passive healing skill activated and all his injuries healed instantly.
Oliver let go of Christopher's leg as he rose to his feet and spawn around slightly, delivering a flying tornado kick towards Christopher's head. Christopher was still dazed by what happened, so he just stood there like a statue as the kick headed towards his head.
Oliver's heel connected neatly with his head and he got sent flying backwards. Before Christopher could crash against the wall nearby, Oliver activated his Sprint ability and dashed forward, appearing behind Christopher.
He joined his two fists together and brought it down in his head like a hammer. Impact was made, and Christopher got knocked down to the floor, unable to move.
[Congratulations, you have shown bravery and defeated your enemies]
Oliver stood over Christopher’s motionless body, his chest rising and falling with adrenaline-fueled breaths. The system's message still flickered in his vision, but he had no time to bask in victory.
A sudden movement.
Christopher’s fingers twitched.
Oliver’s instincts screamed at him to react, but it was too late.
Christopher's eyes snapped open, glowing with an unnatural red hue. A guttural roar erupted from his throat as a violent shockwave blasted outward, sending Oliver skidding backward.
[Warning: Your opponent has activated "Berserker's Wrath."]
Oliver barely had time to process the system’s alert before Christopher was already on him. The sluggish movements from before were gone. Christopher moved with terrifying speed, his fist colliding with Oliver’s ribs.
CRACK!
The impact sent Oliver flying like a ragdoll, slamming through a nearby pillar. Before he could recover, Christopher appeared beside him, grabbing him by the throat and hoisting him into the air.
"You thought that was enough to beat me?" Christopher sneered, his voice distorted with raw power. "Let me show you why I’m called a monster."
He tightened his grip, squeezing the air from Oliver’s lungs. Oliver gasped, struggling, but Christopher wasn't done. He spun and hurled Oliver skyward.
Before Oliver could even begin to fall, Christopher leaped after him, twisting his body midair and delivering a devastating kick to Oliver’s gut.
Oliver crashed into the ground, creating a massive crater.
[HP critical. Passive healing reactivating...]
"Not this time." Christopher landed next to Oliver, stomping down with full force before the healing could take effect.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Oliver coughed out blood, his vision blurring. The system's recovery was being interrupted. He needed to move—now.
Christopher reared back his fist, preparing a final blow to crush Oliver’s skull.
But Oliver grinned through the blood dripping from his lips.
"I was waiting for this," he whispered.
A violent blue aura exploded around him, catching Christopher off guard. Before Christopher could react, Oliver’s hand shot out, gripping Christopher’s wrist.
Then—BOOM!
A surge of energy blasted Christopher away, sending him tumbling across the battlefield.
Oliver slowly got up, his body crackling with raw power.
[New Skill Unlocked: Limit Breaker.]
The ground trembled as Oliver’s eyes gleamed with newfound strength.
Christopher staggered to his feet, disbelief flashing across his face.
Oliver smirked.
"Round two starts now."

Chapter 927
The command bridge of the Radiant Vanguard was a place of ghosts and static. The air tasted of ozone, burned copper, and the phantom scent of long-dead gardens. Everywhere Oliver looked, he saw the flickering, glitching edges of a reality that was being unstitched. His metal-fused right hand rested on the console. The dark, oily veins that snaked up his neck felt cold, not the cold of ice, but the cold of a dying star. He was the Anchor, yet he felt himself slipping, becoming less of a commander and more of a coordinate in a vast, uncaring calculation. He needed to be precise. He needed to be absolute."Status," Oliver said. His voice was a flat, grating vibration that seemed to make the very air ripple.Billy sat huddled over the navigation array, his fingers moving in frantic, jerky motions. His eyes were bloodshot, rimmed with the exhaustion of someone who had watched his own mind be raided by a god. "The rift is ahead, boss. The Chasm of Erasure. It's… it’s not just a hole in
Chapter 926
The giant, burning sun looked down at Commander Oliver. The boiling white star cracked open. A massive, slitted pupil stretched across the entire sky.The Overlord was staring directly at him through the eye of a dying sun. The heat was apocalyptic. The light was blinding. Oliver did not freeze. He did not drop his weapon. His human left hand gripped the glowing gray sword of pure data. The sword hummed with silent, deadly power. The Chief Medical Officer kneeled on the deck in front of Oliver. The monster wearing the doctor's face smiled. It waited for Oliver to surrender to the giant eye in the sky. "You are just a bug looking up at a god," the doctor whispered. Oliver stared into the massive sun. "A god is a biological error," Oliver stated cleanly. "Errors must be deleted."Oliver swung the glowing gray sword downward. He did not aim for the giant sun. He aimed for the doctor's neck. The blade sliced flawlessly through the monster's flesh. The doctor's head fell to the metal
Chapter 925
The smiling face of the Chief Medical Officer glowed in the blinding light of the dying star. Commander Oliver stood at the very front of the rusted flagship. He held his invisible shield of pure logic. The shield blocked the deadly spears of fear and sadness. It kept his crew safe. But the smiling doctor raised a clipboard made of pure white light. He tapped a finger against the glowing glass. "A shield can block a weapon, Oliver," the doctor whispered. His voice bypassed the vacuum of space and echoed directly inside Oliver's helmet. "But a shield cannot block a memory. A memory comes from the inside." The doctor tapped the board one final time. The invisible wall of logic cracked. It did not shatter into pieces, but tiny, glowing fissures opened in the barrier. The psychic spears of the Wraithborn did not wait. They slipped perfectly through the cracks. They rained down on the silver ship like silent, invisible lightning. The spears did not break the metal hull. They phased
Chapter 924
The giant, rusted heart beat slowly in the dark void. Black blood dripped from its massive veins. Standing on top of the awful thing was the corrupted ghost of Lira. She looked at Commander Oliver with eyes full of weeping black ink. "You left me in the dark," the broken ghost whispered. Her voice carried the sound of crying children and grinding stones. "Now you will drown in it."Oliver stood on the bridge of the rusted flagship. He looked at the ghost of the woman who had saved his life. A tiny, painful spark tried to ignite inside his human chest. It was a memory of her pure white light. It was a memory of her beautiful sacrifice. The Overlord had taken her beautiful sacrifice and turned it into dirty magic. The dark god wanted Oliver to feel guilt. The Overlord knew that guilt made human hands shake. Guilt made commanders hesitate. Oliver did not hesitate. He forced the tiny spark of sadness deep into the locked metal box inside his mind. He turned the key. He became perfect
Chapter 923
The word bounced around inside his skull. “Murderer.” It did not sound like the booming voice of the Overlord. It did not sound like the cold, robotic hum of the System Administrator. It sounded exactly like his own voice. Commander Oliver fell to his knees on the glass floor. The terrible weight of a trillion erased lives crashed into his nervous system. He felt their final, silent screams burning inside his chest. He felt the terror of the mothers and the fathers. His human heart beat so violently it felt like it would break his ribs. His lungs gasped for air. He was drowning in a sudden, massive ocean of pure grief. He looked at Captain Iris. She was weeping on the floor, her hands covering her face. He wanted to reach out to her. He wanted to tell her that the math was a cruel lie. But a bright red warning light flashed inside his dark visor. [CRITICAL SYSTEM FAILURE. EMOTIONAL COMPROMISE DETECTED. PURGE IMMINENT.] Oliver closed his eyes. He forced the human feelings back
Chapter 922
The cold hand on Commander Oliver’s metal shoulder faded away. The frantic tapping on his spine stopped. The ghost of Billy from five seconds in the future vanished into the white light. The warning was clear. Run. Oliver did not run. A machine does not fear the future. A machine drives straight through it. The silver flagship tore out of the violent singularity. The massive fleet of human and mutant ships burst into the quiet, frozen space of Sector Zero. The roaring noise of the dimensional tunnel instantly died. Complete, absolute silence wrapped around the ships. Oliver stood at the front window of the command deck. His human gray eye and his burning red eye scanned the new battlefield. Sector Zero was not a normal sector of space. There were no stars here. There were no black holes or burning suns. The space was a topology of pure paradox. Huge waterfalls of black liquid flowed upside down into a white sky. Giant staircases made of glass twisted around each other, leading
