Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 503 - 95: The Fastest Creature in the World_2

Xi He’s body was heavily struck down, half of his torso buried in the ground, his bones broken, seemingly unable to rise again.

"So the strength gap between different tyrant species... can be so vast. Akasi, you are like an enhanced version of Lei Xiao. Indeed, Constantine’s concerns were justified, the folks from Eden do favor humans. You lowly, inferior creatures are quite lucky, it seems."

Something unbelievable happened, Xi He’s body was healing at a visible rate.

Xi He crawled out from the cratered ground, a gentle breeze whisked away the dust from his body.

He appeared as though he had never been involved in the battle at all. But his expression when looking at Akasi became much more serious.

"You, who are even better than Kritos, indeed did not disappoint me. It looks like you’re still able to maintain a certain degree of rationality, which should be the most perfect tyrant form. You really want to kill me now, don’t you? But unfortunately, my existence is specifically to deal with monsters like you."

As if anticipating Akasi’s attack, a mark had appeared on Xi He’s body at some point.

The mark resembled a clock and was emitting an orange glow.

During the conversation, Akasi did not attack but instead, in a blink, took Tang Suoye and Yuan Wu to a relatively safe location.

"I’ll be right back," Akasi said softly.

Tang Suoye still couldn’t speak, but she knew that Akasi must have heard her cry.

She obediently nodded her head.

Afterward, Akasi once again faced Xi He.

How long the tyrant transformation would last he did not know, he had to kill Xi He before this state ended, or take Tang Suoye and the others away.

Xi He seemed to understand that this state couldn’t last too long, and he certainly wouldn’t let his prey escape, saying:

"You have to defeat me to find Song Que. His genes are quite suitable for being a tool like Number Seven. We wanted him to become the seventh being like us, replacing that waste who was taken away years ago.

"You don’t want Song Que to become like us, do you?"

Xi He returned to his usual calm tone.

With a few words, he blocked off another choice for Akasi.

Compassion for Number Seven, along with the anger deep inside and absolute powerful strength, the current Akasi had completely forgotten the reminder Li Xiaoyu had given him.

But he also had the power to turn everything around!

A red light flashed repeatedly, a barrage of frantic punches came once again.

Xi He had not become any stronger, facing Akasi’s speed, faster than even ten thousand beasts could compete with, he had no way to defend or parry.

In the vast arena, there was only the horrifying sound of fists colliding with flesh.

Even in a state that was difficult to kill, Xi He was shocked by the tyrant’s strength.

The so-called Tyrant Project wasn’t about finding a way to mass-produce tyrants.

This power never belonged to humans.

In the great calamity hundreds of years ago, humans were just the spoils of war gifted to their own side.

But through years of observation, they found out that this weak tool race had immense potential.

Despite the fact that the bloodlines that could truly use these powers were extremely rare.

Yet they aimed to eradicate even those sporadic chances.

The real purpose of the Tyrant Project was to find the necessary conditions for evolution, and from then on—forever eliminate the possibility of its existence.

From the beginning, Xi He had never spoken the truth to Song Que.

Akasi did not know all this, his only purpose was one, to kill Xi He!

Enveloped in red light, Akasi, with his red hair dancing, was like a lion bathed in fire.

His attacks were swift and powerful, each blow struck at points that inflicted tremendous pain.

But the anger in his heart did not subside because of this.

Akasi’s speed was still increasing!

However, the same strange occurrences were happening on Xi He’s side.

The rate at which his wounds healed was simply too fast.

No matter how fierce Akasi’s attacks were, launching countless heavy strikes within a brief second, they would all miraculously disappear in the next second.

This battle seemed like a one-sided crushing, but Akasi gradually began to feel that something was amiss.

In just over a dozen seconds, Yuan Wu and Tang Suoye witnessed an onslaught like a sudden storm.

The two figures in the sky split apart once again, but what shocked Tang Suoye was that Xi He didn’t have a single injury on him.

He still wore that annoying smile as he watched Akasi.

Akasi’s expression was grave. Up to this point, he was in absolute advantage, yet Akasi could feel that Xi He’s regenerative ability was incredibly astonishing.

To be exact, it wasn’t ordinary healing at all.

He drew his dagger, without any pause, and slashed out another arc at a terrifying speed that was impossible to react to.

Xi He instinctively protected his head, using his arms to hard-block Akasi’s slash.

In the moment when flesh and blood were flying, one could even see the white bones exposed in Xi He’s arms.

But in the next instant, Akasi finally saw clearly; he didn’t see on Xi He’s body the kind of terrifying regeneration speed like that of the beasts.

The flesh and blood did not heal. Rather, it was as if a frame was missing from the picture, and suddenly, Xi He’s arms were restored to their original state.

In the blink of an eye, the figures separated once again, with Akasi standing in his previous position, coldly watching Xi He.

"I can make the beasts return to their weakest state, and I can return myself to the strongest state. I am the god favored by time," Xi He didn’t hide his secret.

He felt there was no need to hold back.

What he intended to do today was to test out just how strong a perfect form tyrant actually was.

In Xi He’s view, Akasi’s current strength was already beyond his expectations, but he could feel that Akasi had an even greater potential.

He straightened his magician’s hat and said,

"The former comes from the blood serum of the beasts, the latter comes from my own ability. Akasi, I’m not afraid to tell you, there are more ’Number Sevens’ being made, humans are a species adept at proliferating. What reassures me is that no matter how excellent the tool people that die, there will always be better ones in the future..."

"Shut up!"

The wrath of the tyrant surged again, and Xi He only felt his body suddenly being lifted by a force.

The pain in his back hadn’t even had the chance to spread from his nerves before his body was struck flying elsewhere.

The aura of the sword was overflowing, and the thick killing intent seemed to solidify the space.

Akasi no longer attacked with his fists, but drew his dagger, cutting into Xi He’s flesh with each strike.

Though brief, these pains were intensely concentrated.

Xi He frowned with disgust.

Indeed, Akasi had no way to deal with him, but he didn’t have a way to contend with Akasi’s speed either.

Such unprecedented speed made it impossible for Xi He to make any effective response or defense.

What was most terrifying was that Xi He felt the anger still rising.

This anger brought an increase in Akasi’s strength.

Each slash was more lethal, and for the short duration of a second, the attacks that landed on his body were even more frequent and concentrated.

Akasi’s thinking was simple: no matter how strong the body, no matter how terrifying the recovery means, they couldn’t bring about resurrection from the dead.

Life and death were absolute opposites and divisions.

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

He saw clearly that Xi He’s body needed about a second to recover to its prime condition.

Before this, he could only severely injure Xi He in a second, so he wanted to try to increase his speed even further—

Just like that girl had said, "Akasi, you need to become faster. Otherwise, who can you protect in this world?"

Red light surged! His red hair danced like flames, Akasi’s attacks leaving behind countless afterimages!

These afterimages seemed to attack as well.

With such terrifying speed, in your ears, you could only hear the prolonged and dense—notes composed of cuts.

These sounds were so dense that the distant glass actually cracked just from these noises.

It was hard for Yuanwu and Tang Suoye to imagine just how fast Akasi’s attack speed could be.

Fear finally appeared on Xi He’s face.

He never expected that Akasi could be this fast!

He actually intended to completely kill him in the short instant before the second of his recovery arrived!
