Chapter 446 Spirit Weapon Switch
?446 Spirit Weapon Switch
"Fool your enemy, fool your spectator, and you'll avoid a hundred battles." —An excerpt from the Book of Bullshit, by Sir Inala.
From start to finish, Inala had fooled everyone. To Virala, he was a mysterious individual with the drive to target Virala and the means to keep the latter's attention engaged for a significant duration.
But to the Brimgan Royals, he was a hero who was brave enough to face the infamous villain, Loot who had the strength of an Empyrean Tusk. As a result, they were happy to see him succeed. Best of all, he didn't even take the gains for himself and instead placed it in their custody without any hesitation.
First, it showed his nature of seeking justice. Second, it factored in his lack of strength that couldn't retain the treasure against Virala's attacks. Third, it was a display of his significant trust in the capability of the Brimgan Royals.
"Two more, go and accompany him." The Fentan City Lord said as a couple more Royals split off and rushed to join the Royal being sent away on a Spirit Weapon operated by the Royal standing beside him.
He then turned around to face the rushing Virala and caused a Spirit Weapon to hinder his path, "Where are you going?"
Bang!
"Get lost!" Virala punched in fury and dented the Spirit Weapon. His figure flickered as he swerved around it and continued his sprint, watching the chakram flying in the sky, carrying three Royals on it. One of them held his two Nature Weapons.
The Royal operating the chakram was at the 6-Life Stage, boasting an effective Spirit Weapon range of 7.2 kilometres. It was more than enough to transport the three Royals close to Fentan City, from where they could board a railway and make a beeline towards the Capital.
And if need be, in case Virala manages to catch up to them, then one of the Royals could use a similar means to transport two of them and increase the distance between them and Virala by a few kilometres.
"Defend!" The Fentan City Lord shouted upon seeing Virala unleash an artillery strike. As his Spirit Weapon defended against the spikes, he was stunned to see it begin melting off at parts, 'It won't be able to tank more than three or four of such shots.'
The Spirit Weapon Switch Skill had multiple variants, depending on the skill level of the user. The weakest variant allowed one to switch ten times in a second, limited to two Spirit Weapons.
Powerhouses such as the Brimgan Emperor were capable of performing over four hundred switches in a second and could freely switch between ten Spirit Weapons. He was an absurd existence.
The Fentan City Lord could switch up to a hundred times a second but was limited to two Spirit Weapons, as he primarily focused on the number of times he could switch in a second over controlling multiple Spirit Weapons.
As a result, he was able to micro-adjust his two Spirit Weapons and ensured they functioned just as he intended, smoothly in their function.
Boom!
The spring underneath his legs vanished and was replaced by a wheel that accelerated the Fentan City Lord to the side, allowing him to dodge Virala's lunge. As Virala unleashed an artillery strike, the Fentan City Lord condensed a Spirit Weapon to tank the attack.
Primary Nature—Kinesis Deity!
The Fentan City Lord transformed into a 10-metre-tall humanoid golden giant and grabbed Virala, grinning in response, "Where do you think you're going?"
As he spoke, a chakram slammed into Virala and caused blood to drip out of his body, having shaved off a good chunk of his exoskeleton.
"You're annoying!" Virala growled and transformed into an Empyrean Tusk to jump once, unleashing a quake that cratered the region and caused Karuta Hill to crumble in response.
But in response to his attack, the Fentan City Lord brought out a Spirit Weapon in the shape of a long spring and hovered high above the ground. The spring expanded and contracted according to the quakes, absorbing all the shock generated by the rumbling ground.
He had brought out a second Spirit Weapon in the shape of a rope that had coiled around the other royals and made them hover in the air at an altitude of four kilometres. And from their vantage point, they rained down attacks on the massive target.
Against Virala's human form, the Fentan City Lord would take charge of attacks while the rest would only serve to hinder his movements. But once he becomes an Empyrean Tusk, they'll attack without mercy, for it was easier to aim in this situation without hindering the Fentan City Lord.
Every single Royal had Gold Grade strength. For them, Virala was merely a ridiculously tough opponent. But no matter what he did, he couldn't escape their range, which meant they could take their time to wear him down before capturing him.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via Ñøv€l-B!n.
