Kyle looked at Swamp Dragon for a bit.
Green and brown scales appeared from all over his body, but he wasn't completely covered in them. They only existed in different patches on his body.
His hair was long and dark green, and his eyes had also become dark green.
On top of that, Kyle could feel a dense and toxic aura coming from Swamp Dragon.
Touching him would result in a horrible infection. Of course, only if he wanted to infect the person he was touching.
Swamp Dragon pulled his bow back, and several of his scales flew off his body.
The scales gathered into the shape of an arrow, which appeared on the bow.
He had once again gotten access to his poison arrows, but they were different this time.
They felt more potent and dangerous.
And as Swamp Dragon pulled back his bow…
He vanished.
He was just gone.
This was not some kind of ability he had unlocked or his newfound great speed.
No, someone had gotten involved and had teleported him away.
Warp Space's eyes widened in horror, while Kyle just snorted.
'You fucker,' Kyle thought, thinking about whoever it was that was running and overseeing the Star Seeking.
Usually, as long as the team was fighting a beast, the Array of Stars wouldn't get involved until the battle was over. After all, taking a member away from the team might result in the team's death.
But they had taken Swamp Dragon away anyway, and Kyle knew exactly why they had done so.
'Why am I even surprised? As if I could keep my power secret in front of someone this powerful.'
The wolf was a bit confused when Swamp Dragon left, but it quickly recovered and focused on its last two enemies.
Lightning gathered around it, and it shot forward.
Warp Space's mind was going wild.
She had failed in condensing her Law.
She needed more time to correct her mistakes and to accumulate more insights.
In terms of percent, one could say Warp Space's Complex Law had grown from 85% to 95%. If she hadn't made a mistake while trying to create her Complex Law, it would have reached 100%.
With time, she would be able to condense her Complex Law. After all, she was almost there, and she just needed a bit more time and comprehension.
But the boost of comprehension during battle had already been used up, and all her insights had solidified.
This meant she wouldn't be able to condense her Complex Law during this battle, no matter what happened.
Well, technically, if this battle continued for several months, she might be able to condense it, but that wouldn't happen.
She also knew that Kyle wouldn't be able to condense his Complex Law since he was nowhere close to condensing it.
They were going to die!
"Support me," Kyle said with a serious voice as the wolf charged at them again.
Warp Space looked with surprise at him.
Why didn't he seem worried?
Kyle pulled out his hammer.
BOOOM!
The air around Kyle exploded, the shockwave tearing the surrounding trees.
Warp Space watched in shock as Kyle's speed reached unreasonable levels.
This…!
How was he so fast?!
Earlier, he hadn't been this fast!
With this speed, he would have been able to keep up with Swamp Dragon and her!
They wouldn't have ended up in such a bad situation!
That was when she realized that Kyle had done this to allow them to condense their Complex Laws.
When Kyle had seen that Warp Space had failed, he had suddenly sped up to block the attack.
Just the fact that Kyle had absorbed the entire attack with relative ease should have already been a clue that his body was stronger than expected.
Yes, Kyle's Law wasn't finished yet, but it included an Essence on the level of a Level Three Law, which was Infused in another Level Two Law.
Kyle's half-baked Law was nearly as powerful as Swamp Dragon's finished Law!
A finished Complex Law was, on average, half a level higher than the same Law when it was 99% done.
For example, when Swamp Dragon's Law had been nearly complete, it almost had the power of a Level 2.5 Law, but as soon as he finished it, it was catapulted to the level of a Level Three Law.
Meanwhile, Kyle's half-finished Law was technically on the level of a Level 2.9 Law.
This…!
How was Kyle this powerful?!
One had to remember that becoming a Unique Transcendent also came with an increase in Energy of about 20%.
A 20% increase was nothing to scoff at, but it also wasn't something that made one invincible.
With a bit of luck and proper technique, this could easily be overcome.
Warp Space realized something incredible.
Kyle was a Fulfilled Transcendent, and yet…
He could win against a Unique Transcendent!
This was basically impossible!
There were the occasional stories of Transcendents jumping levels, but these stories were fantastical, unbelievable, and rare.
After all, the level of a Transcendent was based on their accomplishments in Laws, and Laws represented their Battle-Strength. A Fulfilled Transcendent always had a higher Battle-Strength than an Advanced Transcendent, and a Unique Transcendent always had a higher Battle-Strength than a Fulfilled Transcendent.
It was by definition impossible to jump a level in the Transcendent Realm.
And yet…
Kyle could.
When the wolf saw Kyle appearing in front of it with incredible speed, it didn't seem surprised.
In fact, its instincts had already warned it earlier.
When Kyle had first charged towards it, the wolf had felt a significant feeling of threat originating from Kyle.
The human with the hammer had felt more dangerous than the other two combined, which was why it had immediately avoided Kyle.
The wolf quickly moved around Kyle.
While Kyle's speed was almost twice as fast as the speed he had shown earlier, he was still slower than the wolf.
"I said support me!" Kyle shouted as he charged after the wolf.
Warp Space shook her head and narrowed her eyes.
The battle wasn't over yet!
