Chapter 141: An Unlimited Sale!
Mystic Mist Art–Empyrean Extraction!
Immediately in response, the Centinger’s Spirit Container started to shatter while its condensed blood got pulled out of its body, containing every possible data of its being.
Whether it be the data contained in its mind space, the data of its physical body, and the information related to its genetics, everything that made the Centinger itself was getting extracted.
Of course, thanks to the Quill, the Centinger’s broken Spirit Container rapidly recovered, and the same happened to its blood too.
“Keep it up, Mother.” Torq addressed the Eureur Pet, “There’s nothing in this world that could be considered an infinite source of energy.”
’The Quill is undergoing a reaction similar to nuclear fission and fusion to generate energy. Eventually, it’ll use up all its power.’ He thought, ’The reserve will be pretty insane, however.’
’That’s why it doesn’t seem like we can make a dent.’ Torq didn’t despair, for he had a solid plan here. And with that in mind, he activated it.
Primary Nature–Voracious Spirit Dominance!
He consumed the substance Eureur Pet was extracting from the Centinger, but instead of finishing the digestion process, which would turn the resultant Spirit Pool into a part of his Astral Pool, he barfed it out.
Silver Grade Spirit Pool–Melting Bone!
The Melting Bone Spirit Pool was a condensation of the Centinger’s power in a form the Cooter Clansmen could wield. Due to the incompatibility, it would have only turned into an Iron Grade Spirit Pool.
After all, the Centinger’s power was solid based, extremely incompatible with Mystic Mist Art. But now, thanks to the Quill, the Centinger had been elevated into a Gold Grade existence. As a result, the Melting Bone Spirit was actually on par with a Silver Grade Spirit Pool.
It had the property to melt through matter, with a higher efficiency towards organic matter as compared to inorganic matter. The melting property was slightly inferior to the power of psychokinesis it grants the user.
If a Cooter Clansman builds their body using the Melting Bone Spirit Pool, their power of psychokinesis gets a boost up to eight times in terms of power and two times in terms of speed as compared to a Cooter Clansman on the same level.
The melting properties were a mere add on, and weren’t actually as potent as the Centinger’s secretions. Using Mystic Mist Art on a Centinger’s secretions would result in greater melting potency than that offered by the Melting Bone Spirit Pool.
“FREE SALE!” Torq roared, “10 Parute! 10 Parute!”
He could care less that he was hollering in the midst of a battlefield. He wanted to make a mess of the situation, as much as possible, to the best of his capabilities. And then, he’ll bail, if the situation drops in terms of favourability for him.
The submarine was hidden right nearby, immersed in a thin layer of Inertial Waves Spirit Pool, which would expand upon activation and block everything while making a path only for Torq to pass through.
It will buy him time till he enters the submarine and flees the place.
As Torq began to spew out the Melting Bone Spirit Pool, one of the water serpents appeared nearby and dipped its tail into the substance. Since the Spirit Pool was a fluid, it could be controlled using Mystic Mist Art.
Even though all the power that could be obtained from it when built into the body wasn’t available when used plainly, it was still better than using regular water. Since it was a Spirit Pool, it truly bent to the will of Cooter Clansmen the best.
The water serpent turned into a Melting Bone serpent moved to target the Stitched Humans swarming from nearby.
“It’s done,” Eureur Pet muttered after a few minutes as she held a bloody vortex above her palms, which had been condensed to the limit to barely occupy two litres in volume. This vortex was an Information Slip, so dense, it could shatter any Cooter Clansman’s mind space if they were to consume it whole.
Contained in it was the entirety of the Centinger’s data. No, not just the Centinger’s data. Since the Centinger was currently being upgraded to be a peak Gold Grade existence, the concept that allowed every cell of its body to be upgraded to Gold Grade was also a part of the data set.
This was what Torq wanted, for through it, he could reverse deduce some of Nusantara Celestial’s powers.
“Let’s leave,” Since he had achieved his objective, Torq didn’t wish to stay behind and test his luck anymore.
“Alright,” Eureur Pet nodded and generated a mist vortex, which communicated with all the Cooter Clansmen in the vicinity.
Immediately in response, a water serpent appeared before the Centinger and touched it with the tail, beginning to extract a blackish-red substance. It was the corrosive substance secreted by the Centinger’s spikes.
The water serpent absorbed the corrosive substance and rebuilt its body to become more dangerous. Moreover, it absorbed the substance with as much violence as possible, to ensure it dealt damage to the Centinger greater than the recovery rate enabled to it by the Quill’s boost.
By now, four more water serpents had gathered at the place, waiting to do the same. They had pretty much turned the Centinger into a gas station to fuel their attacks.
A water serpent landed on the Centinger’s back and began to siphon the latter’s blood, after purposefully applying strain so that the Centiner’s Spirit Container would shatter, and fragments of it would mix into the blood being siphoned out.
The water serpent was refining this blood into extremely potent medicines, which it was radially spreading around in the form of mist, available for everyone to absorb while continuing their flights.
This mist was extremely wasteful, for the medicinal properties contained in it were damaged by the Stitched Human attacks. Only a small portion was left untainted and fit for consumption.
But it didn’t matter, as they had an endless source. Like ants that had chanced upon a large cube of sugar, the Cooter Clansmen swarmed the Centinger and began to extract as much value as they could out of it.
In the meantime, Torq had already retreated into the submarine and plunged into the Dralh Sea’s water, intending to distance himself from the battle first.
“What the…fuck is that?” Raefrag shrilled in disgust upon seeing the Centinger be swarmed like maggots by the water serpents. Somehow, the sight alone churned his disgust. He wanted to stop them, but didn’t have the leeway to do so.
As during the three seconds he spent revelling in his disgust, a metre thick bolt of lightning struck him and melted his head. Quickly ejecting the corpse out, Raefrag appeared a couple dozen metres away with a 9-Life Stage cultivation.
A second later, his presence spiked as he entered the 10-Life Stage once again. As for his ejected corpse? It moulded itself together, generated a Spirit Container thanks to the many cores dispersed across its body, and turned into a Puppet.
The Puppet escaped into the water, intending to gather more Prana Beasts from the region to make Stitched Humans.
But it had only swam to a depth of 100 metres when a golden flash shredded it to pieces so small, it could no longer hope for a recovery.
“Huff…” Hovering in the sky, Brunta Brimgan gasped tiredly, for he had killed more than a thousand puppets by now. They were all released by Raefrag every time he died. ’Dammit! My Spirit Weapons are being contaminated by the influence prevalent in his puppets.’
Once corrupted, Brunta Brimgan had no voice but to let go of his Spirit Weapons. Otherwise, if he were to retract them into his Human Avatar, the influence would seep into the rest of his Human Avatar and pollute his body, mind, and soul.
He’d end up becoming a Stitched Human soon after. And unfortunately for Brunta Brimgan, he was caught in a vicious cycle of steadily losing more and more Rutham that formed his Human Avatar.
If he were to avoid taking action, the puppets released by Raefrag would eventually overwhelm their entire army. But if he were to keep killing the puppets, he would be shaving through the reserves in his Human Avatar bit by bit, until he didn’t have enough to even maintain his Human Avatar transformation.
Swoosh!
Raefrag kicked the sea and rushed forth, intending to get close to the lightning plasma sphere so that he could dissipate it. In contrast, Bnapbnap and the other four Settlement Leaders were constantly on the run while ionising the atmosphere, so that powerful bolts of lightning struck Raefrag and melted through his head.
Since it was nature’s lightning, Raefrag’s Inhibition Dome couldn’t dissipate them. However, repeatedly ionising the atmosphere and also aiming the resultant bolts at a rapidly moving target was extremely tough, especially when executed in real time in the midst of fleeing.
If their side makes the slightest mistake, they’ll end up getting killed. Raefrag, however, had plenty of leeway here, as even if he were to get killed once, it didn’t matter, as he had 9 more lives to spare.
And worst of all, the Quill was a literal cheat, as it immediately propped him up to the 10-Life Stage, without the need to cultivate and build a body.
That was the main reason they had yet to kill Raefrag. Otherwise, they could have long since shredded the opponent to bits.
“Any solutions?” Bnapbnap asked as the lightning plasma sphere entered a field of mist which had information collected and dispersed by the Cooter Clansmen, including what Torq had propagated.
They absorbed the information to have a better grasp of Raefrag’s capabilities, “Depraved Human, huh? And that Quill thing is what grants him endless power. He has three of them in his body.”
“I have a solution.” Came a voice, as a woman landed next to the lightning plasma sphere. It was Yoribu, appearing a tad stronger than before.
“Empress,” Bnapbnap uttered, “What do you propose?”
“I’ve trained to resist his influence enough.” She glared at Raefrag, “Now, I can do it.”
“Buy an opportunity for me.” She uttered as the aurora hovering above her began to grow in size, “And I promise you this.”
“I will swallow him whole and keep digesting him for an eternity.” She growled, “I won’t stop until I either become a Transcendent or the enemy runs out of power!”
