Chapter 176: Scavenger Test (2/2)
On Rex's left, there's a mirror that views the testing room.
It's the man in front of Rex's turn, and Rex is curious about his power, 'Crystal Elementalist, I wonder what his power looks like', Rex thought.
While they're talking before, Rex already scans the man in front of him.
The man is called Zane and he's a Crystal Elementalist, it is a higher rank element from the earth element tree.
Not many have this element, and Rex is greatly interested in it.
Zane is in the middle of a white room with an observer on the side, they talk for a moment before a man enters the room.
The man is a peak rank five Fire Elementalist, he then stops ten meters in front of Zane.
After getting into their position, the man conjures a spell creating a huge fire saber above his head that is filled with fire mana.
Looking at this, Zane also chanted his spell.
His body glow with a red-pinkish color as red crystal materialize around him creating some kind of barrier, it reflects the light making it glow brightly.
SWOOSH!
The fire saber blasted fastly towards Zane, Rex can feel the power emitted by the fire saber.
BOOM!
It hits Zane's crystal barrier directly before it creates a huge explosion,
The observer knit her eyes while looking at the scene, and after the smoke clears out Zane's crystal barrier can be seen glowing strongly.
The fire saber didn't manage to penetrate his barrier, not even a scratch can be seen.
Rex looked at the scene in surprise,
From the scan he does to Zane, he knows that Zane is only an Awakened that just enter mid-rank five not long ago because of his low intelligence stat for a mid-rank five.
But to his surprise, Zane manage to fend off an attack from a peak rank five Awakened!
This shows truly the power of a defense-based element like the Crystal element, not even a higher rank Awakened attack can penetrate this.
After testing his power, Zane then came out of the testing room.
Rex then walk inside the testing room after Zane got out, it is his turn now and he already somewhat guessed the test.
But before he got inside the testing room,
”Good luck kid, with your rank five power you will certainly pass the test smoothly”, the guy behind Rex said sarcastically.
Rex ignores the guy and went inside the testing room with confident steps.
”What is your rank?”, the observer asks.
Rex glance at the observer before he answered, ”Early Rank Five, Black Lightning Elementalist”
Hearing this, the observer nodded her head before she said, ”What kinds of test will you choose? Power test? Defense test? Or Versatility test?”
”Versatility test”, Rex replied nonchalantly.
”The specification of the test?”, the observer asks again.
Rex thought for a moment before he said, ”Multiple targets”
After getting Rex's answer, the observer talk through her earpiece before four chained mutated rhinos came out of the other room.
Their skin is filled with hard blue scales, their eyes are red with hulking bodies, and they have six brawny legs instead of four.
Seeing this, Rex scans the rhinos and finds that they're all early rank five.
”You may begin”, the observer said as she steps back.
The rhinos got released from their chains just after the signal from the observer,
ROAR!!
Without a moment of pause, the four rhinos charge at Rex as their animalistic instinct to run away kicks in.
Looking at this, Rex smiles.
His body glows with a yellow hue as he activated his force power,
This scene greatly shocks the observer and even other people that watched Rex from outside, it's almost unbelievable for someone to achieve the yellow Force.
One needs to train their body like a madman to just comprehend Force, let alone Yellow Force.
”Black Field Orko”
ZOOM!!
The ground suddenly turns pitch black after Rex chanted his spell, even the observer looks at the ground in shock when she feels the lightning mana in it.
It's overwhelmingly dense and she realized that the Black Lightning is a Peak Great Element!
'Such power for his age, he must be a genius from a high-ranking family', the observer thought as she look at Rex in awe.
BLITZ!
Black Lightning zapped out of the black ground hitting four of the rhinos.
The rhinos got electrocuted as their body becomes stiff, and black whip-like lightning wrap around their body holding them in place.
It happened in less than five seconds, all of the rhinos got stopped by Rex.
His fist then glows with a yellow hue, ”Force Beam!”
BOOM!
Rex punched the air sending four Force Beam towards the four rhinos,
The Force Beam hit the rhinos right on their head and penetrate through it, their hard scale didn't put any resistance to the Force Beam.
Strength-wise, Rex is comparable to a mid or even peak rank five.
So the rhino who only has early rank five power have no chance, the Force Beam pierced through their head and destroyed their brains.
BRAK!
The four rhinos fall lifeless as Rex retract his spells,
Rex looks at the observer who is still in shock before he puts his hand on his pocket and left, he didn't even need to hear the observer's result.
The guy that mocked Rex before was stunned to his core, he looks at Rex in disbelief.
He then realized that he said many offensive things to Rex as he put his head down, he saw Rex approached him after getting out of the testing room.
It makes his heart thump uncontrollably,
The power Rex shows inside the testing room proves to the guy that Rex is stronger.
He lowers his head afraid that Rex might mess with him, but to his surprise, Rex only stops in front of him before Rex walks past him.
Not even a single word came out of Rex's mouth,
But before Rex disappear around the corner, the guy bowed and said, ”I'm sorry for my ignorance!”
Hearing this, Rex smiles lightly before he left.
