Chapter 146 Physiological Scar And A Change Of Heart

The moment Erian felt the vibration, his expression changed and before he could do anything, the peculiar force ran through him, giving him a jolt that made him unbalanced.

Noticing what was about to happen, Erian released massive bursts of nuclear energy into the air, but it was all for naught as his body tilted sideways.

Involuntarily, he took a step backward to stabilize his body. In that instant, his body remained still like a frozen lake. But his brows were furrowed, revealing his extremely troubled expression. It was as if he couldn't believe what had just happened.

His cold eyes settled on the lady before him. She seemed only a year older than him, around 17 to 18 years of age but the maturity within her eyes revealed the wisdom within. One who underestimates her would surely regret it.

Theryscira drew back her sword. An indifferent expression on her face, not at all concerned about Erian's cold expression. Keeping her human-sized blade behind her back, she walked towards the Gryananium Stone and picked it up after putting on a glove. She was about to leave when a voice rang out to her, "Wait!"

Theryscira paused her step. Her eyes shifted backward at Erian and she snorted. "What? Do you want to go back on your word? Doesn't be a sore loser."

Erian's fists clenched tightly upon her words. His face was slightly pale and his muscles trembling slightly. He swallowed hard and squeezed out a word from his mouth. "How?"

Theryscira tilted her head and after a few seconds, she turned around to face Erian. A slight bit of amusement was on her face as she observed Erian from the top to bottom.

"It's called forced vibration. When you become familiar with the three basic waves, you might have a chance to comprehend it."

Confusion clouded Erian's face even more. This was the first time he was hearing about Force vibration. With the system, he didn't think his talent would be any lower than that of others out there. But even then, the distance between him and a supernal appears to be even further than he had initially thought.

Seeing the confusion on Erian's face, Theryscira sighed and proceed to open his eyes to more. She acknowledged his strength and knew if he were to go all out, it might be difficult to take the stone without getting injured which will be bad considering the upcoming rumbling battle.

"Do you have any idea why they separated us into three categories? Troopers, Elite and Supernals?"

Erian's brows furrowed. Staring into her eyes, he replied in an obvious manner. "Pulse talent."

Theryscira shook her head in disdain. "Elites are all about pulse talents but Supernals are on another whole new level. If it was all about pulse talent, why would they allow a four-star pulse talent like me into the supernal."

"Impossible!" Erian shook his head in disbelief! All this time, he thought they chose supernal based on pulse talents, Theryscira's words seem to have shattered his entire logic. If supernal weren't chosen based on their nuclear pulse, what was the basis of the college selection then?

Raising her index finger to point at her head, she responded. "Comprehension! What good is talent without comprehension? Without comprehension, talent is only for show."

"Every year, there's always someone like you who tries to jump class and challenge those at the higher class. A few tens have succeeded into entering the Elite class but only two people have succeeded into the supernal class in the past century."

"If you can't even comprehend Force vibration, you are better off staying at the troopers' class."

After saying this, she instantly stomped her feet and leaped out of the hole she had arrived from. But before she left, her voice resounded within the lab. "Don't be naive and think there's only the titan gene. If we could create titan gene, others could create a whole new set of genes."

Erian's mind jolted and his eyes went blank. It took a whole hour for Erian to settle on the news he had just received. Suddenly, he released a chuckle and slumped to the floor.

The laugh was filled with bitterness and also one of madness. "Theryscira. Tut, Tut, Tut. Sly b*tch. She really almost broke me."

After adjusting his mental state, he dusted himself, gazing at the long white scar in his glove. Even a Weapon II nuclear weapon was almost destroyed by the sword mark.

"She didn't go easy on me, at least using 60 percent of her strength. But my body was stronger than she thought and with the aid of the nuclear weapon, the force was reduced to a mere vibration, pushing me backward. What a move!"

"But 90 percent of her words should be true, only exaggerated."

But Erian knew he had been too arrogant! The moment he saw what the system could do, he looked down on everyone, and that even increased the time he killed Matilda.

Arrogance was different from confidence. Challenging the two third-year students because he had the Atomic Glitch technique was pure arrogance and not confidence. Showing off his skills to the elder envoy instead of fleeing the moment he sensed the immense danger was also arrogance. He needed to tone things down before he gets killed. While he had been keeping a low profile, it wouldn't hurt to continue keeping it.

Erian sighed and immediately sat crossed-legged. His mind went back to the feeling he had felt upon Theryscira's attack. The vibration was subtle, not at all triggering his internal alarm, crossing unhindered as it went to his internal organ. He could notice that the attack was purely made from gamma rays. But it was extremely silent and deadly at the same time. He was just unable to make out the frequency being used.

After an hour of contemplation, Erian's eyes suddenly flashed open. It wasn't just a frequency, but a mix of various possible frequencies combined to form a more deadly force. Which is called Force Vibration!
