422 Asaeya Vs Virala
'This feeling...shit! Shit! SHIT! It's Gannala!' Virala became flustered upon seeing Gannala crush his spine, making it hard for him to fight back for the time being. Using the opportunity, she was rapidly accessing his memories while seeping her influence into him.
Protect!
Virala's Secondary Nature whirred in response and began to influence him, urging him to protect Gannala and drop all the plans he had concerning using her against Inala. 'Shit! Fuck! This is the worst!'
Currently, Virala was blinded by Asaeya, preventing him from observing his surroundings. Standing on his back, erecting the true weight generated by her biomes was Gannala, making it impossible for him to break free unless he transformed into an Empyrean Tusk.
"It's best to take caution against him." Asaeya said solemnly, "He tried to do something to me before."
She grabbed his arm and shattered it, instantly doing the same to his other limbs, watching Virala scream in response.
Protect!
"Shut up!" Virala roared as his moustache grew and coiled around Asaeya's neck, choking her. His figure turned into an orb to touch Gannala's foot, intending to seep into her.
Bang!
Suddenly, right as he was about to take root in Gannala's Secondary Nature slot, a mysterious energy slammed into him and ejected him out of his body, 'Dammit! What I feared has happened!'
Secondary Nature—Weaponisation!
12:18
By now, Gannala accessed a significant portion of Virala's memories, ending up also gaining information regarding his Secondary Nature of Weaponisation. And as a Mammoth Clansman, the moment the information appeared in her, it reacted with Mystic Bone Art and instantly condensed the Nature of Weaponisation in her.
Once her Secondary Nature formed, Virala no longer had a slot to take root in her, and as a result, was ejected out.
"This is..." Gannala was in a daze for a moment as the Supreme Tusk's inheritance reacted to her Secondary Nature, birthing a new set of information. The information cluster belonging to the Mammoth Ancestor also reacted accordingly and caused a surge in information in her mind, stunning even her.
'The fact that I'm still like this must mean Asaeya is continuing to stack her attacks on me.' Virala analysed promptly. His current body was the same as a fully grown Empyrean Tusk. To steal his senses would mean a rapid loss in Prana for the holder of Linked Rupture.
It meant that unless the target that gained the recoil of Linked Rupture through Asaeya's Akashic Transfer had Gold Grade strength, their Prana would be depleted in a matter of seconds. Even someone with Silver Grade strength would last a dozen seconds at most.
That was the steep price necessary to steal a single sense of Virala, one with the power of an Empyrean Tusk. Therefore, multiple targets must be used to steal all of Virala's senses, with Akashic Transfer jumping through people nonstop.
'The sound from the Grim Knell needs to reach me every time Asaeya uses Akashic Transfer.' As he concluded, he activated his Nature Weapon of Leech, suddenly drawing the blood of everyone in the vicinity.
"What?"
"Run! Everyone!"
"This is bad!"
The people surrounding Virala fled in response as dozens among them collapsed to the ground, deprived of all their blood.
A Decaleech's power only works upon physical contact. But that was at the Silver Grade. Once upgraded to the Gold Grade, it was effective within the Spirit Weapon Range. Thereby, as long as someone was within 180 metres of Virala, their blood will be sucked in.
"Tch!" Asaeya clicked her tongue and was one of the first to flee upon Virala's retaliation. She shook Gannala, frowning upon seeing the latter remain dazed even now, "Get up, you idiot!"
A sea of blood swerved around Virala and encased him in a cocoon, growing thicker and thicker in response, preventing Asaeya's sounds from reaching him. Eight seconds later, he regained his hearing. Two more seconds later, he gained his sense of smell.
Four seconds later, he got his sense of taste. Ten seconds later, he got his sense of touch. And finally, a full minute later, he regained his sight.
Staring at the bloody world of crimson around him, Virala's mood was foul, 'Not only was my secrets stolen by Gannala, but Asaeya made me a public enemy.'
He stared as the Brimgan Empire's guards began to converge upon the place. 'You think this can stop me?'
He spat out the Nature Weapon of Tunnel from his stomach biome and equipped it after removing his Nature Weapon of Leech. He swallowed it and watched the revolving sea of blood collapse promptly in response.
Without wasting a moment, he activated the Nature Weapon of Tunnel and opened a hole into the ground, making his escape.
