The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 278 : Plan to face the Wave King (II)

”If I am not wrong, we will face a powerful Wave King.”

Shura, Surin, and the Blood Champions adopted solemn expressions as they stared at Cain. All of them were geniuses, but a Wave King was on an entirely new level, and even if they worked together, it would be very hard to face such an immense threat head-on.

”Should we call the Blood Duke?”

One of the Blood Champions immediately proposed. Although calling the Blood Duke, or anyone else for that matter, would bring a lot of trouble, the most important thing right now was to survival. Everything else came second.

No matter how great of a threat, or even if an army awaited them, they would be safe when the Blood Duke arrived.

Unfortunately for them, Cain immediately shook his head.

”I am a master hacker. If my hypothesis is right, a jamming force field should cover the underground tunnels. It is not blocking the incoming messages so as not to arouse suspicion in the people on the outside, but we should not be able to communicate with anyone.”

Once again, a wave of shock assaulted the groupʼs heart, and as they went through their A.I. Chips, it was just like Cain told them. They could not communicate with the outside world, only receive messages.

No one would find it odd that they did not respond to their messages since everybody knew they were on an important mission.

”What should we do then?”

Shura was able to calm her heart faster than the rest of the Blood Champions. Since Cain was sharing so much information, he must have a way out.

Cain did not say anything and just signaled the group to eat. Although none of them were in the mood, they followed his guidance and consumed the food until there was no more on their plates.

After that, Cain rose from the ground and went to the Blood Origin Pool before taking a vial and began to collect some of the liquid in it.

”What do you think you are doing!?!

Radin shouted when he saw Cainʼs actions, and he almost jumped toward Cain to stop this one. While his response was a little over the board, the expression on the faces of the other Blood Champions made it clear they had many problems with Cainʼs taking the liquid.

The Blood Origin Pool was a sacred place for the people of the Blood Sea. While they could bathe in it and use its power to temper their bodies and enhance their bloodlines, they could never drink it and much less take it out.

First, drinking it was akin to suicide for Wave Champions since the radiation and forces it in were too high. Most importantly, there was a finite amount of liquid inside the Blood Origin Pool, which had to last for future generations, so taking it out with them was absolutely forbidden.

Cain noticed the rage on Shura and the Blood Champions but kept sending the liquid into the vial. Even though it was small, it could hold a massive amount of liquid, and he only stopped once it was full.

”I can use this liquid to generate a toxin capable of harming the Wave King. That person should be unable to hide from my Ego Wave, so we can counter his ambush. You only need to generate an opening, and I will make sure to cripple that person.”

Shura, Surin, and the rest of the Blood Champions frowned when they heard that. It was a great sin to take the Blood Origin Poolʼs liquid out, but they could compromise if it were what they needed to save their life.

”Hmph!”

However, before the group could consider Cainʼs words, Radin sneered.

”Your Genetic Coderʼs abilities might be higher than mine, but only a Saint Genetic Coder could generate a virus capable of harming a Wave King. You are misleading us, and if you lie about this, then what else is false.”

Shura and the rest of the Blood Champions were surprised to hear that, and they began to look at Cain with suspicious gazes.

Cainʼs eyes grew cold as he stared at Radin. He stored the vial and began to move to the middle of the underground cave, away from the Blood Origin Pool, before activating his armor.

”It seems the only way to fix your attitude is to beat some sense in your head.”

A frown appeared on the faces of Shura and the others when they heard that since a fight was the last thing they should do with such a dangerous threat looming over their heads, but before any of them could say a word, Radin walked toward Cain.

Blue armor covered the Blood Championʼs body as he stood one hundred meters from Cain.

”I had wanted to punch your face for a long time, so I guess it is now or never.”

Cain and Radin look at each other, but while they activate their armors, none of them use Wave Burst. Despite their desire to fight, they were still able to keep the bigger picture in mind.

In that state, neither would be able to do severe damage to the other, allowing them to fight with all their power against the Wave King once they leave this place.

Silence reigned inside the underground cave as Cain and Radin exchanged glances, just for a massive shock wave to appear the next second.

”¡BOOM!”

Cain and Radinʼs fists clashed, generating a powerful blast. That clash was just the beginning, and both unleashed a barrage the next second.

Their punches were fast and precise, and a sharp light appeared in each of their eyes since they noticed that both used Bloodflow Fury.

”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!”

”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!”

”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!”

Cain and Radin were around the same level in terms of skill, but the Blood Championʼs speed and strength were superior.

Yet, the one with the upper hand was not other than Cain since it was as if he could predict every move Radin made.
