----------
As soon as this series of notifications came to an end, Rex took in a greedy breath of the free air in the atmosphere as he savored the feeling.
At this moment, he felt full of energy and strength like never before.
This upgrade was unexpected as he also didn't expect it. At this moment, the rowdy atmosphere from the raging battle already faded from Rex's mind as he looked down at Aragorn who made all these possible.
Aragorn nodded and gave him the go-ahead. "Don't resist it".
Rex grinned. "I am a f*cking Vampire!"
[You have activated Special Vampire Ability: Morphing!]
[Morphing Forms available: 1.]
[You have transformed into a Half-bat!]
[You have opened Mystic Weapon: Blood Tome, Oath of the Ancients!]
At this moment, it was already evening and the sun already started setting. It was not the perfect time for it but Rex could still transform into a half-bat in day time though his powers would be suppressed like usual.
This was why he no longer decided to suppress himself.
Whoosh!
He flew into the skies instantly towards Pain as he drew Berserker.
"Shing!"
"Yes, let's vanquish this slave-trading bastard!"
[You have activated skill: Nirvana Slash!]
As the mighty golden sword energy slashed towards him in mid-air, Pain finally became aware of this threat as he let go of his brother and focused on Rex.
The next moment, he dissipated into a shadow as the faraway sniper fighter robot unleashed another high-caliber bullet. Rex's danger instinct spiked but only for a moment as the ever-reliable Gilbert countered with his own shot.
The 2 high-caliber bullets collided and countered each other; this gave Rex the prime opportunity for him to continue his assault.
By now, the Blood Tome already opened and Rex did not hesitate at all as he burned his mystic energy like water to show his full powers before this slave-trading bastard. He unleashed his full anger on him.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Sword skills, Berserker's mystic effects, Blood Tome mystic effects, half-bat skills, and even his Death Daggers, Rex used them all to fight this warrior.
Against Pain, he was pushed to his limits as he gave the fight his full concentration. Even with Gilbert and Goro supporting him from the side, he still did not have a decisive advantage as both of them suffered injuries rapidly.
In the end, Rex's vitality proved superior. As Pain got weaker, Rex's body condition barely changed as his Vampire constitution reared its head again.
After a 3-minute short battle, Pain was stunned by his opponent's vitality and without hesitation, he decided to escape. After fighting for so long, his mystic energy already started getting depleted, he needed to save his ass first.
Pain roared even while still laughing maniacally as his speed increased explosively the next moment. He dived down and grabbed the weak Cain.
Before Rex could intercept him, he dived into the nearby shadows and disappeared as he started escaping out of the base into the deep badlands.
"Pain cannot escape!" Tim and Aragorn stressed it at the same time.
Without hesitation, Rex flapped his wings as he flew into the skies in pursuit. The new Vampire Knight started pursuing the parasite deep into the desert.
Gilbert was too slow to join the pursuit, but Goro followed as he shapeshifted into a Desert Eagle and quickly flew in pursuit of the trio.
In the blink of an eye, all 4 of them disappeared into the distance.
…
20 minutes of unrelentless pursuit later…
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Goro and Rex harassed Pain from afar as he barely retaliated.
In the mystic world, apart from the normal preached method of awakening mystic ability, getting skills, and training how to increase mystic energy limit, one of the necessities of every combat mystic warrior was learning the mystic calculus.
In mystic battles, one of the greatest variables was mystic energy. If your opponent had more mystic energy limits, he had a higher chance of winning.
The act of learning to minimize mystic energy usage, using the least amount of mystic energy to deal the greatest damage was what was dubbed mystic calculus. It was the real modus operandi of mystic combat.
Pain was a master of the mystic calculus, but his craziness and a lot of things resulted in him using his mystic energy rampantly to fight his enemies.
Now, his mystic energy was too low to fight appropriately.
Goro and Rex took complete advantage of this as they harassed and pursued him deeper into the badlands. By now, the main base of the Desert Cowboy Gang was no longer in sight, they were now on their own.
As the minutes counted, the more injuries Pain sustained as he recovered slowly. The pursuit continued until the veil of the night finally came.
Just before Goro and Rex could catch up, Pain found a cave hidden within the depths of the badlands and he ran inside to hide with his captive brother.
Goro and Rex followed inside without hesitation.
