Multi-Gene

David sneered, leering at Vather coldly. He knew this type of person too well and he had seen this type of situation all too well. The feeling of disdain and the sense of being at the top, David had experienced it once. It was similar to the thought process of the privileged over the underprivileged.

And he couldn\'t help but laugh mockingly at Vather\'s ignorance. The young chap was still inexperienced, judging the book by its cover.

It\'s a pity he wouldn\'t be alive to learn his lessons. David would never allow Vather to leave here alive, the scary background he seem to have didn\'t deter David in the slightest but instead seem to make the upcoming battle even more fun.

He wanted to know if it felt different killing an outsider.

Vather shook his head softly looking at David\'s expression. "As expected of a barbarian, you cannot make them see reasoning no matter how hard you try."

With that, he began to walk forwards slowly. A powerful wave of energy began emanating from within his body, undulating outwards and distorting the air around him.

The robes covering his body slowly began to melt, turning to ashes from his raw powerful energy, leaving his baggy three-quarter pants on him. It seems to have been made from special material, the shorts.

His face was revealed and his golden hair began to glow an even more radiant colour, fluttering along with the wind.

The whirling sound of some sort of mechanism being activated sounded from within his body.

In an instant, he transformed. Under David\'s gradual solemn expression. There was not any visible transformation on the outside, but David\'s eyes and his perception were certainly beyond ordinary, allowing him to see beyond the outward appearance.

David\'s expression turned grave. He could see! Vather didn\'t seem human at this point. His outwards appearance looked as though it was made out of normal human flesh and skin, but the cells on his skin merged with numerous amounts of nanobots! Making them look like normal Vather\'s human skin, but they were more than a thousand times more durable than human flesh. David finally knew why the pants didn\'t evaporate, they were a made of the exact same nanobots

His bones didn\'t seem to be bones anymore but mixed with nanobots, making them even more durable and finally, what made David finally serious was the energy radiating from Vather\'s heart.

A massive energy source that was enough to power the institute for thousands of years was radiating off his chest, releasing a massive amount of energy waves outwards. It was no different to an arc reactor.

Which meant that he had an almost near limitless amount of energy, he might not even be able to use them all in a hundred years even if he was fighting every day.

"Implanting a nuclear arc in the human body and to also achieve a hundred percent merge rate between human and nanobots, it is simply impossible!" David shook his head, he couldn\'t almost believe what he was seeing.

Cracking his neck, Vather chuckled. "See what I\'m talking about? Country bumpkin!"

His toe tapped on the ground and the pores on his legs released massive amounts of high-speed propulsive jet of fluid, containing high-temperature gas.

A tremendous amount of heat blasted backwards. It was as though the pores beneath his feet had been made out of pure tiny rocket engines, releasing a mass of hot invincible fumes, propelling him forward at a speed that can\'t be imagined.

Boom! Shriek!!

The wind screamed as he seem as though he tore apart space, teleporting right before David within the blink of an eye.

With a dark expression, David\'s left heel shifted sideways and he stamped it at the ground, the ground beneath his feet exploded, his face turned blur as he sidestepped.

"Boom!"

The wind exploded, a fist pierced through it tearing apart David\'s face, but it was only an after image. The trees and grasses a hundred meter away from the fist were blasted into pieces, the ground was destroyed in a fan-shaped hundred meter long mark.

David wasn\'t one to receive an attack without retaliating. With his sideways momentum, he raised his left kneel and slammed it against Vather\'s abdomen.

BANG!

The sound was like two heavy flesh metal slamming against each other. They both staggered backwards at the same time. David demeanour turned sour as he felt a slight tinge of pain on his kneel. It didn\'t feel as though he had attacked a human at all, it was as though he kicked at a metal plate with his full strength.

Flipping backwards, he gained distance as he threw three sharp knives with an intense speed almost three times faster than a bullet\'s speed.

Whoosh!

"It\'s useless."

Ding! Ding! Ding! Boom!!!

The three darts exploded immediately upon contact, creating a massive amount of explosion that swept the entire environment!

But the flames were allowed to spread was it seen as though some sort of energy was suppressing the force and even absorbing it.

Vather inhaled deeply, splutters of flames entering his mouth. "I\'m invincible."

Boom!

Another jet of hot air blasted from his pores as he appeared before David within the blink of an eye.

David turned into a phantom, retreating backwards as multiple fists kept appearing in mid-air, tearing through the space with him avoiding them.

Massive trees, boulders and rocks were been destroyed in their paths. David seems to be only slightly faster, avoiding the fists with the slightest bit of movement. But Vather wasn\'t relenting. His sneer grew and his attacks got, even more, faster and more ferocious.

David could hear the sound of mechanisms being operated within Vather body as he attacked.

They were like ghosts as they moved, flickering in and out of existence within the forest. An ordinary person would be unable to see them and could only be able to see how the destruction of the environment happen like magic.

Suddenly, Vather\'s pupils glowed, another ring appeared within his eyes, turning slightly.

Having a bad feeling about it, David quickly retreated, but his eyes opened wide as a fist slammed right at his ribs.

BANG!

His body slammed uncontrollably at the ground. Flipping his body in mid-air, he managed to negate the attack, by landing on the ground, causing two huge gorges as his feet dragged heavily on the ground.

David gazed upwards, but Vather was nowhere to be seen. Quickly twisting his waist, he bent down backwards, his upper body bending parallel to the ground, avoiding a sudden fist that had appeared out of no where, heading for his head.

But the first faded as another fist appeared, slamming into David\'s chest without warning, as though wanting to dig him deeper to the ground.

BANG!!!

Shockwaves blasted everything within a kilometer radius, giving a circular shape clear caved in land, dust appearing in every direction.

Vather suddenly frown, he couldn\'t find David who he had placed hundreds of feet below the ground. Even after using his Bionic Eye.

Suddenly, his eyes flashed and he immediately backed away, his pores releasing hot gases, thrusting him backwards with intense velocity, but it appeared that he was too slow.

Boom!!!

David appeared like a phantom from the ground, slamming his fist against Vather\'s chest.

His body was immediately propelled backwards and a massive shockwave formed outwards as he was uncontrollably blasted backwards.

Finally stablizing himself with his mini thrusters, he checked his chest and saw a fist print on his chest. His expressionless face slowly turned into a malicious one. "Your attacks are all useless against me. You can\'t injure me, and I can literary read your moves before you can even make them. Your struggles are useless, you should just accept your death." Vather said sincerely.

Didn\'t reply to him and only focused on Vather\'s eyes with a frown on his face. He noticed the glow within his eyes and came to a certain conclusion, Vather had some sort of program to predict his movements a certain way and even managed to make a counter attack.

\'Hazel, can you do something like that? \' David couldn\'t help but ask Hazel in hope. The ability was just too cool to not have.

"No, i don\'t, don\'t ask me." Her reply was as cold as usual.

"Doesn\'t that mean you\'re basically useless?" David muttered to himself.

"The program reads your body muscle movements. If you still don\'t know what to do, then it\'s not my business anymore."

David\'s eyes brightened. Controlling his muscles, his blood pumped through his veins and his muscles oscillated.

Vather appeared before him once more like a ghost, punching at him again.

"First star."

David\'s muscles trembled and it was as though he was about to retreat, Vather instantly altered the direction of his fist moving to another direction, but all of a sudden, David appeared before him like a phantom, his fist immediately landed on Vather\'s skull.

But David felt nothing but air and he was astonished.. Vather actually managed to escape his sneak attack even after his speed had doubled using the first star.
