Chapter 145 The Challenge
A supernal. This was his first proper meeting with a supernal and from the ripples gently escaping her body, he couldn't help but admit, they were as dangerous as rumored.
Erian's senses was far above that of an ordinary titan therefore even ehn the young lady tried to conceal her strength, he was still able to faintly sense it. If his senses was half as weak as his current self, then he might have thought the young lady was a weak individual.
Erian's face was extremely solemn. He remained silent, staring at the young lady who stood twenty meters away from him. He could already smell her alluring fragrance and could tell she didn't practice any of those seductive female tactics but a real technique with immense strength.
Theryscira's eyes narrowed. But she didn't cross the twenty meter gap as this limit was the dangerous distance.
Normally, sve wouldn't even place a second year student trooper in her eyes as they weren't even worth her attention. Her previous strength could already match them but the young man before here seem different.
The young man before her was obviously just a trooper and a first year trooper at that. But the radiation his body emitted was like a raging tsunami contained within a limited space, ready to burst forth at any given time. It seemed extremely powerful, even more so than that of those supercillious elite students. 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎
She blinked her eyes and it drifted toward an object near by. She could feel the vast amount of nuclear energy contained within the orb as its waves rippled outwards like a surging river. Her eyes instantly lit up. "An actual nuclear ore!"
But then, her eyes darkened when she noticed it's nuclear strength seem to have waned by a lot and was only about one-fifth of what it was supposed to be.
She cast a confused expression at Erian then at the ore and then seem to have gone to a conclusion.
After a moment of silence, she spoke. "Theryscira, First-year of the Supernal Class."
Obviously not expecting that statement, Erian was startled but then gave out a light smile. "Erian, Prime of the trooper class."
Stating her name first meant she acknowledged his strength which was rare since those from the Supernal class are stated to be extremely arrogant as they were only a few of them but it wasn't uncalled for as they had the strength and talent to be arrogant.
"Since you came here first, the nuclear ore should belong to to you but if this world works on first come first serve logic then there might have been peace in is world."
Erian smile widened he was beginning to like his girl from the supernal class as she was very straight forward. He asked, "Then what do you suggest?"
Theryscira's violet eyes sharpened and she revealed a beautiful smile that could melt the heart. "Withstand a single strike from me without moving and we can consider the Nuclear Ore yours."
Erian let out a slight chuckle. Despite his increase in strength, he knew he still wasn't invisible in his level judging by the vast amount of geniuses out there. But to withstand a strike from her wouldn't be difficult at all. With a brilliant smile, an indomitable energy of the three basic waves erupted from him as he remained standing, not moving an inch nor did he changed his posture for a better one.
"Shiiing!"
A blade slid off Theryscira's back as she held it in tightly in her left arm. At this moment the blade came off, the atmosphere quickly turned chilly, climbing up rapidly until a deep killing intent along with a sharp murderous wave enveloped the entire underground lab.
The air hummed and a piercingly sharp wave of power seem to have escaped through the fabric of space.
Out of the blue, Theryscira took a step single step forwards as she swung forwards with her sword.
Since she was still twenty meters away from Erian, there was no way her sword would be able to reach that distance but the moment her blade moved, her figure instantly vanished.
Erian's internal warning alarm rang and his pupils constricted. Every thing suddenly seem to slow down and he seem to have seem a silvery figure shooting through the air at intense speed.
"Boom!"
The air suddenly exploded and it sounded as if heavenly thunder rumbled in one's ears.
A silver-colored shooting star seemed to flash past as the top stuck across Erian's shoulder
His mind roared and his muscles expanded rapidly as veins bulged out of his skin, like steel wires coiling underneath his flesh and bones.
"Clank!"
The piercing sound of metal clashing!
"Boom!"
At the last moment, Erian's gloved fingers clashed with the sharp blade causing a causing a large visible compress air to exploded outwards! With a series of rumbling sounds, the ground beneath their feet exploded sending dust and stones flying about. Deep cracks formed across the ground, elongating towards the walls of the underground laboratory.
Erian released a slight smirk. While he might not be confident about anything, his physique had been tampered repeatedly until it had reached this stage. Even without the use of nuclear energy to strengthen his cells he could match a mindless titan in body. Now with the strengthening from his almost endless amount of nuclear energy he could receive endless attacks from her instead.
"Hmph!" Erian involuntarily snorted and his body shivered. His eyes widened in surprise as a strange vibration slipped of the sword and rippled through him.
His tough body couldn't block it and neither could the powers from his three main waves. The vibration wasn't particularly violent but it jolted his entire system making him off balance.
Another loud bang echoed throughout the underground lab as the ground cracked even more with dust rising upwards. The entire lab instantly fell silent. In that moment, Erian's eyes turned cold and his murderous intent soared as he stared at the lady before him.
