The Berserk Explosion was even more outstanding and demanding. Its summary stated that the first level of this technique is the same as the Ultima state of other Tier-1 techniques! Imagine each of your every casual attack of this technique being the peak power of other Tier-1 techniques, it was insane.
It is said that at the highest level, the Ultima State from this technique can rival that of a normal Tier-3 combat technique! Showing how destructive this technique was.
But the question which made Tyrion confused was why is such a good technique placed alongside other basic tier-1.
Soon, he found the answer. Turns out that using Berserk Explosion while it allows the user to access great reserves of attack power, it sacrifices the body as an exchange.
The internal organs, tissue, muscles, blood vessels, and bones would instantly rupture in just one strike, rendering its user crippled or in the worst-case scenario, dead.
The cells would also rupture and become weakened for a long period of time and might not even be able to recover which is why only those with the intent to die with their opponent ever uses this technique. it’s an absolute last resort.
Furthermore, the techniques contain three states. Berserker state which is the first state. Can only be used in one move.
Blood Rage which is the second state. Can only be used to execute three moves.
Feral Demon: the third state. Can only be used to execute ten strikes.
And then the legendary Ultima state… Primal Fury.
Primal fury state, the body would be utilized to the maximum capacity, stimulating and burning every single cell in the body to the extreme limit, generating unbelievable amounts of strength, power, and agility!
At this state, it was said that depending on one’s cell activation level, one could rampage however one wished before the body collapses 𝘪.𝘤𝑜𝘮
In the entire history of the academy, only one person had managed to reach the first state whose name was unknown. Though she didn’t die, he strength waned considerably.
The second person was the creator of the technique. He had also reached the first state but ultimately died off while practicing the second state.
Even practicing it was deadly as a single mistake could lead to the cells, muscles, or blood vessels rupturing, causing internal bleeding and the like.
Seeing this technique, Tyrion was a bit hesitant. The technique seemed perfectly made for him as he could simply regenerate and upgrade the technique to the highest level. But why should he suffer so much pain just to practice an ordinary technique when he could get a simple Tier-2 combat technique with enough power?
His eyes flashed with conflict as he struggled to make a decision. If he chose Berserk explosion, it meant he got to choose another Tier-1 combat technique, saving him credit points to get another as well as time to train it and also increasing his fluidity and versatility in combat and his arsenal, it was simply a win-win situation.
The only downside to this was that he would suffer a lot in the future. Even practicing this technique would definitely bring him pain not to mention the time he would need to comprehend the technique and be initiated into the technique for the system to be able to level it up.
Gritting his teeth, he ultimately decided to choose the technique. With the system, pain was already a part of his life, why struggle against it when he can just embrace it and increase his strength instead?
With his regeneration and his system, there was no point in wasting time to learn common combat techniques. For Tyrion to choose, only the best would suffice.
After selecting the Berserk Explosion technique, Tyrion also decided to choose another Tier-1 technique.
The Phantom Speed Leg art. Another explosive technique that can only be used once to boost and improve one’s speed and agility to the maximum state, making ones legs look as though it was a revolving blade.
But this technique was special as it only contains one stage and doesn’t possess an ultima state unlike the others as the technique was its own Ultima state; The Phantom Force
The Phantom Force state: Creating your own personal time dilation thereby overclocking the entire nervous system as well as the cells that build the legs, allowing the user to perceive and interact with the world at a higher frame rate for a short period of time.
From the user’s perspective time slows down, from an outside perspective the user is moving at superhuman speed. The technique can only be used for short durations because the nervous system and body cells can’t take the strain of moving at those speeds for prolonged periods.
But the difficulty of reaching the first state was as high as trapping clouds! Even higher than Berserk Explosion’s first state.
Finally deciding, he heaved a breath he didn’t know he was holding and chose to click on the submit button.
The instant he chose to submit, an image of an old man projected out of his watch and appeared in mid-air.
Although Tyrion wasn’t scared, he still showed a hint of surprise.
The old man was seated lazily in a chair as the Librarian, Tyrion had no idea if he was an AI or human but it was stated in the manual that he was there to guide the students in selecting their manuals and advising them.
“What? The Berserk Explosion?” The Librarian started to frown and tried to persuade Tyrion, “Young one, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Never aim too high or too far. Put your feet on the ground and take it step by step. The Berserk Explosion is just a Tier-1 manual but the difficulty of mastering it is almost as hard as other Tier-3 manuals. Even if you successfully master this technique, you’d still end up dead either way. Many students chose not to listen to me and ended up dead. Listen to this old man’s words and work steadily, one step at a time, to make solid progress.”
