When can you fix them?\" Natasha shifted the topic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know. A few days? A few weeks? A month? It depends on everyone’s cooperation...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the others turned to look at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling they were in the midst of choosing a leader to manage the shelter, an inclination formed in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, fearful of offending Natasha and Skylar, no one dared to speak first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I give up the position of shelter leader. No need to mind me,\" Natasha declared, seeing through their thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one concern removed, they couldn’t help but turn toward Skylar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With all eyes on him, Skylar had no choice but to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I admit your ability is impressive and could be key to our survival. But without strength, why should I follow you?\" Skylar said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Are you saying we settle this with a fight?\" Nash muttered, intrigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d long wanted to challenge this bigshot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that an opportunity stood before him, a spark of interest flashed in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems you understand clearly...\" Skylar smiled, seeing that Nash didn’t make excuses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Signalling Hobis to disperse the crowd, Skylar stepped forward, inviting Nash to a challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk, these two children!\" Natasha gritted her teeth, frustrated by their willful behaviour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For heaven’s sake, they were in the middle of a 5-star danger zone! Couldn’t they tone it down?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Natasha, let them be. This is a duel of men,\" Camilla said, holding Natasha back before she could interrupt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, then I’ll be the referee for this match!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing she couldn’t dissuade them, Natasha stepped forward to prevent serious injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two faced each other, Natasha laid out the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No weapons are allowed, including runic armor, it can only be used for defense. The first to land a heavy blow will be declared the winner. Any questions?\" Natasha said sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it’s fair,\" Nash nodded, grateful for Natasha’s last-minute rule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since Skylar wore a tier 5 runic armor set!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was indeed the starry son of the nova sector, just his armor already was a cut above the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem for me either,\" Skylar agreed, acknowledging his unfair advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that both understood the rules, Natasha commenced the fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Begin!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Natasha’s word, the two charged toward each other, with fists aimed straight at each other’s faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too obvious...\" Skylar muttered, tilting his head aside, while his fist shifted into a grabbing motion, aiming to pin Nash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfazed by the grappling attempt, Nash turned his fist into a slap, intending to swipe Skylar’s face to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not wanting to be hit, Skylar vanished in a blur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Time acceleration? What a great ability,\" Nash said, narrowing his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the recorded video in the [Memory Module System], Skylar’s movements suddenly accelerated a hundredfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a blur, it was too late before he could even react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph!\" After his initial attack failed, Skylar sped up, aiming a punch at Nash’s cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bam!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that all you’ve got?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wiping blood from his lips, Nash felt not fear but intrigue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skylar was so fast it barely made sense. Before Nash could register the movement, he had already been hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, reviewing the fight and the shifts in Skylar’s runic programs as he used his ability repeatedly, Nash began to sense a pattern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, try another punch,\" Nash taunted, pointing to his cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Activating the [Recovery Module System], his face, aside from some blood marks, was already fully healed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently, while Skylar was fast, his power was a little lacking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Nash, who balanced his stats, Skylar had gone all-in on speed and time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling provoked, Skylar activated his ability again, accelerating time as he swiftly struck at Nash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, as if anticipating the move, Skylar watched in horror as his fist missed its mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm? Does your ability only accelerate your body, not your mind?\" Nash deduced, intrigued, seeing Skylar fail to land the hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Nash’s deduction, Skylar fell silent, eyeing Nash warily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he couldn’t fully control the angle of his attacks, with such speed, he hadn’t thought precision would matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet here was Nash, seemingly predicting his moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unwilling to accept this, Skylar accelerated again, erupting in a flurry of fists and kicks, attacking Nash from every angle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having already analyzed how Skylar’s ability worked, Nash easily dodged and blocked the onslaught.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Try to keep up!\" If Nash could dodge, it meant his speed wasn’t enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pushing his ability further, Skylar’s speed skyrocketed from a hundred to three hundred times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing a premonition and noticing the intensified shifts in Skylar’s runic program, Nash quickly activated the [Overlimit Module System].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amplifying his body’s strength and consciousness to their limits, his eyes quickly followed and predicted Skylar’s movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spotting an opening, Nash swung his fist, aiming to strike Skylar in one blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not good!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if a giant fist were coming at his face, Skylar played his trump card and slowed Nash’s movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Nash ten times slower and Skylar three hundred times faster, the difference in their time latitude became three thousandfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dodging to the side and repositioning his attack, Skylar’s lips curved into a smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s over...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as he grew confident in his victory, to his horror, Nash’s fist suddenly adjusted, tracking his head squarely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to dodge, Skylar forcefully twisted his arms to meet the blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like two comets colliding, a loud sonic boom echoed around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dust and smoke filled the air, causing the seeded talents watching the fight to squint, guessing who had won or lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the dust cleared, they saw two men standing on the field, one seemingly exhausted from overdraft, the other with a bent arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guess... you win,\" Skylar admitted, seeing his arm was ruined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though a potion could heal it, continuing the fight would be pointless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t sell yourself short. I barely won,\" Nash said with a wry smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that final clash, Nash had realized the true terror of Skylar’s ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just speed Skylar that couldn’t fully control; it was the slowness that pinned him nearly motionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he had reacted at the last second, transferring his consciousness to the runic space, he still felt it was a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already pushed the [Overlimit Module System] to its max, amplifying his combat power from 10.9 million to 770 million, yet he was still affected by time.\u003C\u002Fp>",1087,"2026-06-06T08:03:14.165Z",1,"novelbin.me","37fe70e7d368354b72c5829236206ccfa2667b9e6a3385bfc16138d702ba4044","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-233","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-231",665,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-program-my-body-cover.jpg"]
