pHe activated the dummy and a scene exactly like the previous one appeared except that the dummy had a hole on it and he was prepared. When the number decreased to zero the dummy moved abruptly sprinting towards him. This time he wanted to test the power of the cold energy so he released the cold energy and directed it towards the dummy.
A thin layer of frost appeared on the dummy's chest and it quickly spread, slowing its movement.
'As expected its stronger than before' thought Cylius as he released another wave of energy. After fifteen seconds the dummy stopped moving completely, it was a strange sight as a metal dummy was in a moving position but was covered in frost. It looked just like a beautiful piece of sculpture.
He shot at the dummy with his new gun, the frost shattered like a fragile piece of glassware. It scattered into pieces on the ground. It was still slower than Farold but the energy seemed to be able to work better in living things. If he was correct the freezing effect was just a bonus.
If he tried it on living things he would get much better results, this was his intuition. From the night before he could see the changes in his body caused by the energy. First he started to emit a cold aura and his dislike of hot things grew, his body temperature also dropped. Second his body started to turn pale as if he was inflicted with a disease. Third his hearing had been enhanced once more but not other senses.
Fourth he felt an aura of sickness and death slowly emitting off from him, this was usually signs of impending death but he was still healthy as before and this might be the results of the energy awakening. He was sure this wasn't normal but when he thought about how the thirteen's auras and outer bodies had also changed, this might just be a normal occurence.
Plus he wasn't worried about being changed this way, if this aura has really appeared then it would do him good. This might just be the nature of it just like how Erick's tongue had split into two parts but how he didn't mind it at all and just acted like everything was okay.
The genes were one with the host so the host would naturally not mind it at all. It might even be possible that why Farold is so hot blooded, unreasonable, arrogant and lofty maybe because of his genes. Looking at Farold's aura its possibility is high, just feeling the aura surrounding caused them to feel fear so loftiness and arrogance just might be a second nature to all these dragons.
Destroying dummies were a point each so counting his total net worth right now he only had a meager amount of three points from his high fourty points. But it was no problem though, lambs were waiting for him everywhere in these ship. With his ability now he could easily take out a trainee and points would flow like river to him.
He got out of the training room and picked up a trainee that looked quite powerful. The trainee was enraged when he was caught in an energy that locked on to him, a thin layer of frost appeared on his body. After the initial fury now there was fear. It might be because of the aura surrounding him, the deathly aura. The trainee was obviously not from his group so didn't know him.
"Uhh, sir what are you doing. Sir can you please put me back" the man pleaded but it was of no use. Cylius didn't even talk to him as he got out his point card and plundered it.
After getting the points he then walked to another two and plundered them. He picked the strong ones though, because he wanted to watch a show. How the strong would release their fury and plunder the weak. It was a good one indeed, two of them chose a weak trainee to release their anger and also to get back their points.
As for the remaining one he almost pissed himself and didn't seek the weak to release his anger. The weak now was the end of the hierarchy, they won't be able to get points at all resulting in their deaths.
"The strong would become stronger while the weak would become weaker" a true sentence indeed. But it wasn't the end for the weak though, they might gather to make the strong fall. If he was right, there might be an association forming in the ship in order for the weak to resist against the strong.
Anyways it doesn't matter he wasn't into uniting with other people. He just formed the group of three in order to resist Farold whick was a large threat. With his charm man women and men would gather to fight against them but he couldn't kill Farold, if he did he would also die.
A gentleman could wait for ten years to take a revenge, he had time as long as he could go through this hurdle and safely land he could always find a way to kill him. No matter if he found a powerful backer or not there would always be jealous people and people who would want to get rid of him.
As long as he took the right moment to strike Farold would die. He didn't believe a protagonist couldn't die and not reincarnate. There should be a way to kill him to cut off his ties with the destiny. If not there would be protagonists rising and changing the world every century.
If a protagonist could be made then they could be destroyed too or else this world would be a mess. Even if theres no way he could always find the antagonist or find another protagonist before pitting them together. This could at least counter him. When the powerful antagonist collides with another protagonist it would create a devastating effect.
Then when both of them have been severely injured he would kill them both, a smart move indeed. This might just be the strategy to exterminate protagonists for the higher ups in the Federation. They should know of the existence of these protagonists so might've created a way to deal with them.
Currently he had three ways to deal with Farold. Notify the higher ups of Farold's talent and his determination, seeing it they would feel insecure about their positions and would try to exterminate him. Second he could use the previous idea pitting one against two.
Third he could find ways to deal with him from the ancient writings. A human's heart is unpredictable who knew if a few protagonists had fallen becuase of these jealous or whatever kind of people during the long span of history.
