Reawakening: SSS-Rank Villain's POV-Chapter 148: Adrenaline Burst!

Firming his gaze, Lucian was about to launch another attack, no matter how ineffective it was, it was still something.

Suddenly, Lucian's stubborn gaze flickered as he suddenly frowned, his body was acting weird once again.

————————-

With the amount of control he had over his body, it was extremely easy for him to notice if something was happening to his body.

A gland in his body was secreting a large amount of bizarre fluid and at the same time, some of the nervous systems in his body was also secreting the same bizarre fluid which was directly injected in his blood streams, sending impulses to his organs and heart to create a specific order which Lucian wasn't aware of.

This was as far as he could see. All of a sudden, his rapidly pounding heart that was moving like a piston in a cylinder and was about to jump out of his chest instantly increased in speed.

As the fluid merged with his blood stream, his body was suddenly in an excited state which he could never even calmed down.

He could feel his heart pounding in his throat as though it was about to jump out.

Heart pumping, head spinning, lungs bursting and body screaming for more... Every muscle craves relaxation as blood courses miles of veins and a pulse sounds in Lucian's ears... ba-boom, ba-boom. It was a glimpse of heaven for a few seconds.

His muscles were completely filled with a tingling pressure of power as the fluid continued to flow into his bloodstream.

He felt that his body was about to explode if he didn't release the energy in his body.

But that wasn't all, scorching heat suddenly exploded from the very depth of his veins as they turned deep red in fury.

Suddenly, his bloodshot eyes shifted as they locked onto the old man's red eyes.

The old man's eyes suddenly shook as he mumbled doubtfully"Adrenaline Burst!, Impossible! simply impossible!" he gazed at

Lucian as though he was a monster.

When the old man was still a rank one, he had the ability to battle those above his level. He was smart and was an even greater Alchemist!

It was commendable and had even gain praises from the institute he was under at that time.

Even till then, he had never touched upon the Adrenaline State.

But now, a random student he had met had activated the Adrenaline State just at rank one.

It

was simply impossible. He found it unbelievable.

Adrenaline: A stress hormone produced within the adrenal gland that quickens the heart beat, strengthens the force of the heart's contraction, and opens up the bronchioles in the lungs, among other effects. The secretion of adrenaline is part of the human 'fight or flight' response to fear, panic, or perceived threat for a normal human

But to a ranker, this gland remains closed up and only a few ever managed to unlock them as a rank one individual.

Lucian saw the astonishment on the old man's face but that didn't stop Lucian from making his move at all.

"Boom!"

The ground instantly exploded as Lucian darted forwards like a phantom with lightning speed. His speed was so fast as he moved in a zigzag manner.

The oldman was completely unable to determine his position.

"Whoosh!"

Lucian instantly appeared in front of him like a ghost and punched out. The terrifying strength of the fist produced sonic booms in the air as though it was about to piece the void.

The oldman was smart as he prepared to use the same tactics on Lucian. Lucian's current strength has gone way beyond his expectations and beyond what he could handle.

Not given enough time to think, he swiped his sharp claws at Lucian shoulder and it was as if he was a heavenly hammer containing a few thousand kilograms of strength in them.

But what was unexpected was that Lucian didn't move to dodge and neither did he change his attacks direction to counter the old man's attack.

He wanted to trade wound for wounds, injury for injury.

The old man's eyes flashed in a sinister light. As he rook didn't change his claws direction 'Let us see whose body will hold out until the end.'

"Boom!"

"Swish! "

Lucian's fist was the first to land, bringing forth a terrifying explosion and a fiery heat that came with it.

"Blood Explosion Fist!"

While the old man attack drew a few white lines on Lucian's shoulder. But it was as if his body was made of steel as sparks flew off from the point of contact.

But still, Lucian's shoulder showed signs of depression because of the strength involved driving the claw attack.

The old man was suddenly horrified. He hadn't thought Lucian's attack contained this type of fiery heat and explosive heat. If not, he would never have dared to use his body to take the attack, and Lucian's defense had grown too.

The old man's chest instantly exploded as dried flesh and dark red blood spilled out.

Heatwaves roared out in all direction, drying up the surrounding water molecules.

But the terrifying heat in Lucian's fist seem to be transfered to the body of the old man as his flesh was instantly cauterized by the feirce heat conducted into his body.

The old man groaned miserably in pain. This was the first time he was experiencing such pain. His face was full of shock as if he couldn't believe it.

But it's a pity that Lucian's character was one who would still hit you even when you are down.

He didn't wait a single second as he punched out with the same momentum. His body groaned, his bones creaked and his muscles trembled. It appears as though his body was fast approaching its limit.

But since a long time ago, his body should have long reached its limits. It was impossible for the body of a rank one to repeatedly contain such massive power and force.

But Lucian had secretly downed the rest of the blood red orb that was in his backpack, back when the old man had been distracted by his revelation of a true vampire.

If not, it was impossible for Lucian to survive until this moment. He would have long since been defeated, and his energy depleted.

The energy and stamina of a Spryher wasn't that massive.

In the next moment, Lucian moved as though he was flying, his fist was like a meteor falling from space as it carried along with it, monstrous heat wave which Lucian didn't bother to hide this time.

With earth-shattering momentum, it smashed towards the old man fiercely.

"Impossible!"

The old man only had time to shout while simultaneously crossing his hands over his chest protectively

and then.

"Boom!"

Lucian's fist crashed into the old man's crossed arms but it only paused for a split second before it suddenly moved forwards, striking the oldman in the chest!

It's target, was the exact same spot that had exploded previously!

Another wave of crimson heat exploded and a figure was instantly sent flying backwards, crashing into the wall, rolling into the office with another man hole the old man's figure created this time.

Lucian rushed in immediately after the old man. He was in a hurry to quickly finish the battle

The strength he had gained wouldn't last forever and he could feel the gland secreting the fluid in his body and injecting them into his bloodstream was beginning to shut down.

Even his nervous system had stopped excreting the fluid.

It was only the remaining fluid in his system that was still getting his body excited which would soon fade in a few seconds.

He practically had no time to waste.

Jumping into the office, Lucian was astonished to see the old man getting back to his feet although unsteadily, his tenacity was very commendable and praise appeared in Lucian's eyes as he nodded his head in approval (Auth: I actually laughed when I wrote this.)

White bones could been seen from the hole in the old man's chest with blackened muscles in its surroundings.

But despite thinking that, his movements wasn't slow at all as he sent another fist whose power had been boosted by Adrenaline Burst!

This fist was Lucian's final attack, which contained most of his energy and he was prepared to deal a huge blow.

But Lucian's eyes suddenly widened. At the very last minute, the old man had strangely twisted his sideways like a snake as though he didn't have any bone in his neck, evading his attack by a hair breadth.

All of a sudden, Lucian fist turned into a claw as he yanked his hands backwards, scratching the old man's face while at the same time, retreating into a safe distance.

Surprisingly, Lucian's body suddenly grew back to its previous size and his tight skin and muscles instantly slackened.

Lucian immediately dropped to his kneels. Weakness filled every single part of his body and he couldn't even move a single muscle.
