Chapter 336: Recoil
Location- Sky Blossom City, Card stadium, Arena no.2
With Park’s Hell Bridge and my Enhanced Shine Explosion clashing with each other, the aftermath was devastating. Arena 2 and the area surrounding it were entirely covered in dust. And the two tornado-tailed giants fighting in it were nowhere to be seen as the dust slowly settled.
“Cough! Cough!” I coughed out some blood as I forced my charred body to stand up and climb out of the pit I was in. But soon I realized my shine explosion had turned the entire arena into a pit. This meant that climbing out of the pit was equal to walking out of the arena so I stayed put and searched for my opponent but she was nowhere to be seen inside the pit. Cautioned, I started to scan the sky in search of her.
Enhanced Shine Explosion is a wide range attack with the host at the center, it is more of an outburst of stored energy than an explosion. Here the stored energy is the accumulated world rule sun’s Shine within the cloud rule body. The cloud body balloons into a bloated cloud filling itself with Shine. Upon reaching its limit the bloated cloud body inflates by emitting the shine within it in the form of a complete 360-degree outburst of stored energy with the host at the center.
Thanks to this 360-degree outburst, the Shine explosion is the perfect example of the saying that the best defense is the offense. It not only helped me attack Park but also defend against her attack, Hell Bridge.
Despite successfully defending against Park’s attack Hell Bridge I was in my present sorry state because to enhance the skill Shine Explosion I sacrificed all three of my avatar to the skill Blood burning.
With my avatars sacrificed I could no longer maintain the Gigamite form. Since the Gigamite battle genie transformation was formed with my Gigamite form as foundation and core, it disintegrated as I lost my Gigamite form. This was within my calculation as I came up with the combo skill. I also knew that being bound to rule body when the Gigamite battle genie transformation disintegrates the original body will also suffer from a huge backlash.
But what was not in my calculation was how much of a backlash will be directed to the original body from the disintegration of the rule body bound to it. This error in the calculation was because I underestimated the bond between the rule body and the original body. Since the original body acted as the core to the enormous rule body I should have guessed that the recoil would be deadly but I did not.
With the disintegration of the rule body, I felt as if my own body was being disintegrated. It was so painful and traumatic. This pain I felt was because of the sense sharing bond between the original and rule body. The real backlash was more painful as my body suffered indirect injuries to its organ, muscle, and bone structure. Basically, every part of my body was either torn or bruised as a result of the rule body disintegration. I could have died or suffered more severe damage if not for me acting quickly and using my restructuring skill to heal my body as it suffered from the recoil.
Despite knowing the skill had a recoil, I used Blood burning Skill for the skill combo Enhanced Shine Explosion because it was the only skill that could cause any substantial damage to Park’s rule body.
Park is a lot different from Corey, she is a veteran and has more experience in combat compared to Corey. If not for the tournament rules and Corey’s Card soldier realm constraining her along with her holding back to not kill me in the process of defeating me, the battle would have taken a very different course.
The longer the duel prolonged the chances of me losing would increase therefore I decided to go all-in with the skill combo Enhanced Shine Explosion. I risked it because I knew I could not win against Ms. Park in a direct confrontation with her combat experience, control, and comprehension of world rules. Fortunately, my bet was spot on
“Contestant Corey Bright disqualified, violation- out of arena”
“Semifinals, Arena 2, winner Dalton Wyatt”
Hearing the announcement of the referee my body relaxed and slumped down in the arena pit gazing at the sunny sky. The damage to my physical body as the result of the recoil was still present as the damage taken was too severe even for my restructuring skill to heal in moments.
As I gaze at the sky waiting for the arena medic staff to arrive I saw two shadows descend from the sky towards the arena. The two shadows parted ways as one headed towards me and the other headed out of my sight. I recognized the shadow as it neared me, it was Anna.
“Let’s get you patched up” saying that Anna picked me up and flew towards the VIP box. On the way to the VIP box, I finally saw the second shadow who descended with Anna. She seemed to be carrying unconscious Corey.
The unconscious Corey’s body did not seem to have any visible injury. Seeing her without injury I was puzzled thinking how did Ms. Park manage to avoid the recoil of her rule body being destroyed. Was there a trick to it?
Demon fire has a huge advantage against other rules, this advantage is void when it meets rules which can dampen its dark attributes. For example, the world rules Sun and Spring. They both have a purification effect which is the bane of dark rule in general. In presence of this effect, the dark rule or dark attribute associated rules will take double damage.
Therefore when faced with enhanced Shine Explosion Ms. Park knew she had no place in the arena to dodge the attack. And she could not take the attack head-on. Having mastered and perfected the rule body transformation she knew the recoil would be a bitch and the current physique of Card Soldier realm Corey can not withstand the damage taken so when faced with the choice unharmed Corey’s body or struggle to the death, she chose to retreat in face of 3 times enhanced Shine explosion. Resulting in her going out of arena bounds and being disqualified from the tournament.
