88 Chapter 88: Evolvable secret martial techniques
“Since you know it’s top-secret then you must also know I can’t say much on this subject either..” Alex said absent mindedly but a sinister smile was blooming in his head.
“I already saw so it wouldn’t hurt to know what it is... I sincerely want to know what Artificial deviant abilities are like” One sword said earnestly.
“I will be the only one on the losing end here so I suggest we make a trade” Alex said as he started walking towards the other end of the arena.
“What do you have in mind?” One sword asked with a hint of innocence in his tone, this made Alex wonder how secluded this deviant may have been from the outside world since he started working for the Briggs or maybe this may be his true nature.
Alex could never tell easily with a glance! Since One sword rarely shows emotions it’s hard for him to know what is going through the man’s mind.
“Let’s just say you owe me a favor for now... I will call it in whenever I need it” Alex said calmly.
“As long as it is within my power I will help! Now tell me what type of ability you have and why you were so eager to get your hands on mere wolf threat beast cores when your family can get as many as you want” One sword said as he pulled out beast cores and threw them at Alex.
Alex had already forgotten about these beast cores so he was surprised and delighted when he saw those beast cores.
“First of all, I don’t wish to rely on my family resources to push forward... That’s why I hunt for what I need” Alex said calmly and One sword nodded. Without being told he already knew this much.
.....
“Maybe it’s because you are yet to return to your family but everyone knows about you... You fought Lord Wilder... You even went as far as to threaten him in your last meeting with him... Amongst the Briggs and other Big four families you are like a celebrity....” One sword said calmly.
“If you know that much then you must know my true intentions” Alex’s voice was threatening but his eyes remained calm.
“Everyone suspects while many just believe you won’t dare let go of your easy life as a Briggs ” One sword said
“And what do you think?” Alex said with so much calmness it felt threatening.
“I believe you will leave the Briggs family... That’s why you are amassing power while rejecting their resources... I know you have decided the next time you end up fighting Wilder it will be a deathmatch... Within that calm and cool face of yours is someone willing to turn the heavens upside down just to get why he wants” One sword said calmly, leaving Alex slightly surprised.
This man’s observation skills are godly!
“The ability I got is a specialist type known as matter absorption... I absorb the properties of whatever I touch” Alex said as he touched a gun and absorbed the metal properties, turning his body silver!
He quickly released the ability and returned to his normal form.
“I saw empty beast core gems lying on the floor... All the energy in them has been sucked away! So how do you explain that?” One sword asked.
“I already gave you the government’s secret... What you are trying to know is my secret” Alex said coldly.
“Sorry... I was just curious” One sword said.
“Why are you here?” One sword suddenly asked.
“To test out my secret technique” Alex said nonchalantly. He saw no reason to hide that one.
“Can I help?” One sword asked as he approached.
Alex paused a bit first and after giving the matter some thought he sighed and threw the gun at One sword. It was a pistol!
Huff!
Alex breathed out as he activated his silver statue secret technique and his body turned silver. His voice was slightly deeper than usual when he spoke and his eyes seemed lifeless.
“Shoot me!” Alex said calmly.
Bang!
Without hesitation, One sword shot at Alex and he aimed for his forehead!
Alex was too stunned to react! The bullet hit and fell to the ground, failing to penetrate his skin.
“What the hell was that? What if my defense failed?” Alex was pissed.
“It won’t... Your martial technique is a silver-grade combat technique that focuses on defense... Only peak C-rated attack and above can hope to put a dent on this defense” One sword said with a yawn.
“What next?” One sword looked bored.
Alex remained silent for a while as he considered something. The power leap between the bronze statue and the silver statue is quite high! He wondered how powerful it would be when he upgrades the ability to the Gold statue level! Putting it on par with the demon-kin secret technique!
He would become the only man in the united states with two gold-tier secret techniques.
But why was such a good secret technique put away by the military? If he could remember clearly the bronze statue was put away because it was considered impracticable and he couldn’t deny the fact they were right. For a Bronze tier secret technique, its requirements were too high just for little result! If Alex didn’t have the demon-kin secret technique that allowed him to manipulate his ki energy perfectly, he wouldn’t have been able to make use of this secret technique.
Also if he didn’t have the matter absorption ability, he wouldn’t be able to upgrade the ability to this level!
But are there things like Evolvable secret martial techniques?
“Do you know anything about Evolvable secret martial techniques?” Alex asked and One sword frowned.
He thought about it deeply before speaking.
“Over my few years as a guardian, I haven’t heard of something like that... But during the time when I was saved by your grandfather, I was on an expedition outside the walls... More hands were needed so I volunteered to join the hunters... We came across a ruin, We thought there would be treasure so we fought our way through! I almost lost my life and got saved by Lord Wilder! That’s where we saw it...” One sword paused slightly.
“It was a Bronze secret technique but its requirements for practice were so high and its effect was exaggerated. It talked like you could gain limitless power from it. So many prominent figures tried to practice it but many failed and those who succeeded regretted ever wasting time on something so worthless. The power was even weaker than most bronze tier secret techniques” One sword said.
“That’s a funny story” Alex said while he pondered carefully.
It was just the same with the bronze statue technique! Its effects were so weak, that Alex barely made use of it until now. He could guess what One sword and the rest found were another Evolvable secret technique! He wanted to ask where it was but he knew the question would d pointless since it must be with the government!
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
It could even be the bronze statue technique!
“It’s alright though...” Alex said calmly as he began walking away.
“Since you are here let’s spar! Nothing too serious” One sword said, stopping Alex.
He felt like rejecting him at first but considering he has always wanted to fight another B-rated deviant to test his strength he almost couldn’t resist.
When he turned around, he realized One sword was already going through the section of the wall with different types of swords. It felt like One sword already knew he won’t reject the offer.
“Okay then... Let’s go” Alex said calmly as he stretched and waited for One sword to pick.
What happened next almost made him spit out blood in anger.
One sword pulled out a wooden sword and walked towards him calmly. All his life, Alex has been someone no one has ever looked down on. Even Wilder Briggs knows his capabilities and is a bit cautious of him! Yet this man dared to bring a wooden sword to a fight!
“Cocky!” Alex bellowed as he charged forward!
One sword ignored his words and quickly brandished his sword at Alex! The wooden blade seemed to be engulfed in white light as numerous arcs of white aura raced towards Alex, threatening to harm him!
“Perceive!” Alex growled as his eyes widened and he moved accordingly!
His movements were so strange and abrupt! It felt like Alex could tell where the next attack would hit or when the next attack will be thrown!
He maneuvered through the barrage of attacks as his skin turned silver! By this time he was already in front of one sword!
“KILL!” Alex roared as he punched forward!
In response, One sword quietly swung his blade forward! The white aura struck Alex’s fist and a loud sound could be heard as Alex was forced to retreat a few meters back.
Peng!
“He can bring out so much power even when using a wooden sword?” Alex was stunned as he looked at his numb fist! If anyone told him, he would end up like this he wouldn’t believe it.
If not for the silver statue technique, he may even get hurt by that attack!
