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."

"Hunger keeps the senses sharp," Oliver said perfectly. "A hungry animal hunts better than a full animal. We will divide one single protein bar into four equal pieces. We will eat the pieces exactly ten minutes before we engage the enemy. We will use the sudden sugar spike for combat energy. The other two bars are reserved for absolute emergencies."Rax rumbled a deep laugh. "You treat your own people like machines, Commander. You measure their blood like oil.""Machines do not make mistakes. Humans do," Oliver replied coldly. "I will not let a human mistake end the universe."Oliver turned his cold gray eye and his burning red eye to the weapons on the floor."We have two plasma batteries," Oliver noted. "General Vega. Your sniper rifle is our only long-range asset. But energy weapons drain battery rapidly. From this moment on, you are forbidden to miss."Vega stared at him. "Forbidden to miss? Commander, it is dark out there. They move fast.""I am aware of their speed," Oliver said

The red light flashed in the pure white room. WEE-WOO! WEE-WOO!The giant robot made of hard white light and metal charged forward. It raised its two glowing energy swords. It was designed to kill monsters. And Commander Oliver’s right arm was made of monster metal.Oliver was stuck. His left hand was glued to the glowing white glass table. His black metal right arm was smoking and losing power. He could not move."General Vega!" Oliver’s voice echoed cleanly through the flashing red room. "Do not shoot the robot! Shoot the table!"General Vega did not hesitate for a single microsecond. She trusted Oliver with her life. She raised her heavy sniper rifle. She aimed at the glowing white glass table right next to Oliver’s trapped human hand. She pulled the trigger.BANG! The heavy metal bullet flew across the room. It hit the white glass exactly in the center.CRASH! The ancient alien table exploded. Millions of tiny, glowing white glass pieces flew into the air like bright snow.The mag

They walked for twenty minutes. The path was perfectly straight. There were no traps. There were no monsters. The Wraithborn could not survive the pure light.Finally, the tunnel opened up into a large, circular room.The room was a masterpiece of ancient technology. In the center of the room sat a large, round table made of glowing white glass. Above the table, a complex, three-dimensional hologram of the entire planet slowly turned in the air."A tactical command center," Oliver said smoothly. He walked up to the glowing white glass table.There was no keyboard. There were no buttons."How do we turn it on, boss?" Billy asked. He pulled his cracked tablet from his backpack. "There is nowhere to plug in my cables.""You do not use cables," Lira said softly. "You use your mind. Place your hand on the glass, Oliver."Oliver looked at his two hands. His left hand was human flesh. His right hand was dark, evil metal. He raised his human left hand. He placed his bare palm flat against the

"What?" Foreman Cole panicked. He held his young son tightly. "You are leaving us behind?! In the dark?!""I am securing your survival," Oliver said cleanly. "If we move the entire group through the hidden passage, we risk overextension. We will create too much noise. The Overlord will find the passage and collapse the ceiling on all of us."Oliver pointed to a small, defensible corner of the current tunnel."We will create a partial occupation," Oliver explained. "Sergeant Miller. You, Private Davis, Smith, Jones, Cole, and Vance will stay here. You will guard the civilians. You will guard the unconscious bodies of Captain Iris and Captain Jax. You will set up the heavy plasma machine gun behind those large rocks. You will maintain absolute silence.""We will hold the line, Commander," Miller said firmly. He did not question the math. If Oliver said it was the safest way, it was the safest way.Oliver turned to General Vega, Billy the hacker, and Rax the giant mutant."You three are

The tunnel was as black as the bottom of the ocean. The only light came from Commander Oliver’s face.He walked at the front of the group. His left eye was human, colored a pale, cold gray. But his right eye was a burning, glowing red circle of fire. Half of his face was covered in smooth, pitch-black metal. The dark metal crawled down his neck, over his shoulder, and completely covered his right arm. Glowing purple veins pulsed inside the alien steel.Thump. Thump. Thump. The magical veins beat in perfect time with his human heart.Behind him, the survivors walked in silence. There were twenty-two terrified miners, including Foreman Cole and his young son, Sam. There were rebel soldiers, led by General Vega and the giant mutant, Rax. There was Billy the hacker, holding his cracked computer tablet. And there were the few remaining soldiers of the Ghost Squad, led by Sergeant Miller.Nobody spoke. They were too afraid to make a sound. But they were also afraid of their Commander.The

"We did not win," Oliver whispered coldly."What do you mean?" Vega asked, stepping forward. "There are thirty dead monsters on the floor. We wiped them out.""You are looking at the bodies. You are not looking at the data," Oliver explained.He raised his black metal hand and pointed at the ash."I have fought the Wraithborn for years," Oliver said smoothly. "I know their formation behavior. Elite Phantoms rely on stealth. If they see two heavy turrets blocking a hallway, their primary protocol is to retreat and find a flanking route.""But they didn't retreat," Rax grunted. "They charged us.""Exactly," Oliver said. His voice grew very dark and heavy. "They charged us. They threw themselves directly into the line of fire. They wanted to die."The cheering soldiers slowly stopped celebrating. The tunnel grew very quiet."Why would they want to die?" Billy asked, shivering in the cold air."Because they were not an attack force," Oliver calculated. The horrible truth locked into place
