Bronx only pointed at David and said only one word. "Him."
Icarus frowned as he looked towards David.
David eyes glinted as he instantly put up a fearful expression. "Uhn? Me? I just got here before him." he pointed at Xavier and he continued.
"There was also nothing here when I saw him."
Bronx and Icarus were suddenly confused, who actually had the gadgets with them.
An evil light flashed in Icarus eyes as he laughed coldly. "They will naturally confess after we capture them, I will take on the dude over there, you handle Xavier." without waiting for Bronx to agree to his suggestion, he instantly made his move.
Bronx's eyes flashed with realisation as he felt it wasn't really a bad idea. Since they couldn't differentiate who was lying and who was speaking the Ruth, they just need to capture them and search their bodies, very simple.
Having thought of this, Beonx also made his move.
* * *
A few meters away, on a large tree. Several figures could be seen standing on a tree branch leisurely as they quietly watched the battle that was about to unfold.
"Shouldn't we join the fight for the Gadgets?" someone asked casually.
"Hm, we should but we will just have to wait since we don't actually know who truly had the Gadget. "The second youth interrupted.
"Let them exhaust each other, that's the moment we need to strike. Not like they would be able to take us on anyway. We also need to silence them, the lesser the people who know about the gadget te better ." The third said wih killing intent.
"I think we should retreat, I don't feel too good about this." The fourth suddenly spoke up.
The second immediately snorted as he said with disdain "You don't feel to good about anything, how is this one any different. As long as they aren't in the top 500 in the rankings list, they should be easy to deal with."
Not minding him any more, they turned to face the battle that was about to start.
* * *
"Crazy b*stard." David muttered to himself. He had wanted to play with them for a bit before taking his leave but who would have expected it would be ruined so quickly.
Whoosh!
He stepped backwards slightly as he avoided a punch heading to his temple with terrifying force. The punch wasn't as silent as Xaviers' but the force behind the punch was much more deadly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
David kept on swaying his body like a leaf, moving his body both left and right, he kept dodging the barrage of attacks sent his way.
No matter which moves he made, David evaded them by a hairbreath every single time.
Bronx suddenly backed away with his expression rather ugly.
"Where are you ranked among the top 500 students?" Bronx tried to find out about David.
His body looked quite weak but his thighs looks incredibly sturdy; as if they could stomp the earth down itself.
"Does it matter?" David questioned. After which he said to the people in the forest with him. "I will be leaving now fellow students, please don't mind me."
The ground under his feet exploded, several clumps of mud flew about and his figure flashed as he disappeared from his previous position, dissappearing into the forest.
Instantly, numerous voices shouted out in fury. "You dare!?" "Stop right there!"
"Don't allow him to leave! Stop him!"
Since David had retreated first, it was obvious that the Gadgets was in his possession. They obviously wouldn't allow David to go as he pleased.
A few minutes later, when David was sure he had lose them, he stopped in his tracks as he rested on a slightly yellow tree branch. It was obvious that the Radiation in the atmosphere had affected its color.
"Come out." David said but if one were to observe the surroundings they would realise that there was no one in his immediately surroundings as it was empty.
A minute passed but still, the area was as empty as it was the first place.
David's eyes flashed with a cold glint as he asked "Will you come out or should I force you out my self?" the threat was apparent in his tone. He hated those who snuck around, attacking in the dark.
Suddenly, a few large tree at some distance away from him trembled and three figures swiftly jumped out from the tall tree, landing on the ground with a few thuds.
David scanned the three male figures with his eyes, his face expressionless as he asked. "Is there a reason as to why you guys decided to tail me?"
A slim but fit male youth who appeared to be the leader sneered. "It seems you were in a hurry to leave since you forgot to drop our belonging before you left."
David's face remained expressionless alas he asked. "What are you ranked among the top 500 students?" he wanted to confirm a speculation he had on his mind.
"Unfortunately, I'm ranked 374th." Rex stated proudly with a hint of disdain in his tone.
Amongst the new students, those who are ranked 500 plus are true genius with most of them having Three-Star talent. While most of them are stuck in their Heartlocks unable to advance in their blood revolution.
These people had gained a massive amount of experience fighting each other. Since they couldn't advance to the next blood revolution by practicing, they spent the remainder of their time battling each other everyday.
Their techniques had mostly reached the second level, added with other advantages.
To them, crushing other students who had reached 50 cycle per minute was as easy as starting an automaton.
"374 uhn?" This ranking was much lower than David had expected.
Rex remained still, he was also trying to gauge David's strength, if it were on a normal circumstance, he would have undoubtedly attacked without wasting his time.
But he was a bit weary of David. Because he and his group had to utilize their Motion techniques to catch up to his speed even though they hadn't gone all out in their endeavours, it was still slightly surprising to Rex.
"Make your move!" David didn't bother to change his stance, nor did he immediately circulate his blood. Had he done so, even if he didn't use his full strength, his opponents would all fall in a few strikes. At the same time, he wished to know the combat ability of a top 500 student would be.
"Facinating, be careful." Signalling his hands to his teammates that he would attack alone, Rex's figure flashed.
His legs moved like spiders', as he trodded forward, sending a spinning kick towards Davids direction.
Mid-tier, Black class kick style. Spinning Spear kickimg technique.
David let out a grin as he also let out a storm like kick that Spun like a whirlwind. Low-tier, Black class kick style, Cyclonic kick. He had purchased this technique a while ago from the Archive for an expensive amount of Gyno points.
Bang, Bang Bang!
In just a few breaths, the two of them let out kicking attacks that like bullets. Within the radius of a few meters, sounds of explosions could be heard and the sound of their blood revolutions that sounded as fast as a piston in a cylinder and as loud as thunder.
Rex's blood circulation was at 57 cycles per minute, almost reaching the 60 cycles per minute benchmark.
Once one had passed through the 60 CPM milestone which was equivalent to 1 cycle per second, one could decide if they wanted to advance to the next stage or continue to increase and improve the blood circulation.
His Exercising technique, the Stress Variance Technique was almost reaching the second level only needing a bit of a final push and his Kicking Technique which was at the second state almost reaching the third state.
From a spectators point of view, he should have the upper hand in all aspects, and should have overwhelmed David.
According to the sounds of their hearts beating, although an ordinary person wouldn't be able to make count of the beats considering how fast their hearts are beating but the students watching could do so.
And from their observations, David's blood cycles was definitely slower than Rex's but David could still take on Rex's Kicking Technique without any problems, it made the two who had been watching confused as to what was happening.
Who knew David had long passed the limit of 1 blood revolution per second. His Exercising Technique had long since suppased the second state which was even a Low-tier, Red class Motion Technique.
He was only using Rex to brush up his Fighting style and experience.
Even though the Combat technique; Cyclonic Kick was only a low-tier, black grade and was even two tiers lower than the Spinning Spear Kick art, he had since reached the perfection state of the kick technique long ago, and that was due to the ability he had gained after he reincarnated.
