Chapter 97 - Lifeform Detection Module

"Not good!" Rex's expression changed drastically.

The blur which seem to contain the color of black and blue seem to envelope his vision, making him unable to see where is attack was coming to hit.

His only option was to retreat without hesitation, because he knew if that pale technique was to get hold of, he would be done for.

"Eldest sister, it seem we all have underestimated him and I apologize for doubting your judgement previously." Evans extenuated.

Phyllida eyes flashed as she watched the battle that was ongoing. It seems she too had underestimated him a little then her eyes changed into one of indifference.

Although his combat abilities had exceeded her expectations, he was still too weak to resist her.

After she had used the Butterfly's Effect serum to assist her break the heart lock and help her improve on her Exercising technique.

Her strength had grown by leaps and bounds and her blood revolution had passed the 60 cycle per minute benchmark.

So, she would obviously not take David seriously in her eyes.

After watching them fight, she had complete confidence in defeating David.

"But is it true he tried to learn a red grade combat technique?" Evans asked.

Phyllida mentained her expressionless face as she nodded in acknowledgement.

"If that is so, isn't he just plain stupid? Or does he think he had the talent to succeed in practicing a red grade manual? He is simply too naive." Another person spoke up.

If one had paid to acquire information on David from the institute, they would see that he had a red grade technique listed among the list of techniques he had practiced.

But what the institute won't state is that, they absolutely wouldn't reveal if said had succeeded in practicing the technique or not.

In fact, David wasn't the only one to have made such a mistake, there were several other students who had unknowingly chosen a combat technique they were unable to practice.

That was why the Institute was unconcerned about it of not, they would have fully investigated the matter.

"Where do you think you are going to?" David stomped his foot and the branch beneath his feet jet out a deafening cry.

His hands instantly latched onto Rex's leg and with a twist of his waist,

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He lifted Rex's body with pure strength as he smashed him down repeatedly on the tree branches.

The tree shook violently and Rex could only guide his head in fear.

The expressions of Rex's teammates changed as they yelled with anger.

"Release him!"

"You dare!"

Seeing as the two figures were rapidly approaching his location, he swung Rex's body in a circle as he built up potential energy and with full force, he swung Rex's body to their direction.

He was already done with his experiments and had enough fight to roughly gauge his strength. There was no point in remaining here any long.

With a stomp, the tree shook and David instantly flew towards the dense trees, vanishing from everyone's sight.

"Rex lost? , this is unimaginable... "

"This David guy seems strong, at the very least, he could rank top 200 in the rankings."

* * *

When he had gotten further away from the crowd into a secluded place, David glanced around carefully as he stood still.

The reason he had flee so hurriedly wasn't about the fact that he was afraid of Rex and his teammates. It was because if they were to let out the fact that he has a Gadget with him, he would truly be done for.

Although he was a 50 percent sure they would keep the secret to themselves in order to acquire it from him without having to face the crowds.

He still couldn't bet in the remaining 50

After a few minutes, he was finally certain that he was alone.

Detaching the compart backpack, he hurriedly opened up the pack, there were two items in there, a microchip and a very thin vest that was as light as a feather.

Furrowing his brows, the chip was as small as his fingernails and he twirled it with his fingers.

After a few minutes of scrutiny, David felt a headache coming. He was unable to figure out the exact usage of the microchip.

As if sensing his misery, his AI suddenly spoke up.

"Detecting an ability microchip, should system proceed in processing and Extracting the data installed in it?" stunned, David let out a grin ad he replied.

"Sure, sure. Please do."

"Extracting data now…"

"Extraction completed."

"Name of data that was extracted, Low grade Lifeform Detection Module."

"Scan for any lifeforms within the perimeter of a 100 meter radius."

"Can only be utilized three times a day and it lasts for the duration of 30 seconds."

David's side grin turned into an ugly expression, it was no different than being useless then.

Lasts for 30 seconds and can only be used three times a day? For only a radius of 100meters?

How is that any different from not having anything in the first place?

David grumbled to himself in displeasure, he had already marked the ability useless.

But first, he needed to test the ability.

Opening up his interface, he clicked on the ability menu and he saw the description of the ability in his interface, David wasn't in a hurry to activate it as of yet.

Firstly, he created a shortcut to use the ability whenever he wished.

He inserted that only if he tapped on his imprint three times in a second would the ability activate.

Closing his holographic image, he tested the shortcut he had created.

"Okay, let's do this." tapping his imprint three times, it was as though reality flickered for a moments and then, a few red dots filled his vision, enveloping his eyes

If he looked away from the direction of the red dot, a small arrow head would indicate the presence of a Lifeform at the edge of his vision.

But if he were to stare directly at the dots on his vision, they seen to widen the closer he got and then get smaller the farthest he was from the lifeform.

"Fascinating." this piqued David's interest. But there was something importantbhe needed to do first.

A large red dot was Blinking right in front of him.
