Chapter 1034: Eddy Blade X12!
Lotus Range!
One after another, dozens of golden flashes appeared at the peak of one of the mountains in the range. They became golden Human Avatars, all between 3-4 metres in height. Simultaneously, they reverted to human forms to glare at the unwelcome visitor.
They were Brimgan Royals from the branch families. The oldest among them had recently crossed four centuries. Before the Second Major Disaster, the Brimgan Empire had around 300 Brimgan Royals who had reached the peak of the Body Stage and above.
A hundred of them died to the Mammoth Clan, turned into Nature Weapons. Most of them were those at the peak of the Body Stage. And after the damage dealt to the Brimgan Empire by Brangara, the Empire harnessed its resources to rebuild its strength.
Currently, they had already touched 300 in number, which was occupied by those in the Life Stage alone. Those in the Body Stage were more, as anyone in the branch families with even a semblance of talent was being nurtured.
Brita Brimgan was one of them, aged 414 years. He was treading the peak of the 2-Life Stage, but hadn’t seen much improvement in going beyond. His understanding of Gold Kinesis Art was minimal, which led to a shaky foundation in his Human Avatar. He was stuck partway through the 2-Life Stage.
If the cultivation technique hadn’t been upgraded to Mystic Kinesis Art, he wouldn’t have managed to reach even the peak of the 2-Life Stage. In terms of status, he didn’t have much when compared to the Royal Family.
His branch family were situated around the Lotus Range, in one of the Northern Lakes closest to the border. For generations, they were in charge of the region’s defences. They focused on defence, constantly surveyed the immediate surroundings past the Lotus Range, and organised multiple Raids.
Brita Brimgan was the second strongest in their family. The strongest was his grandfather, an 800-year-old individual who had reached the 3-Life Stage. He was in charge of a lot of matters, and hence, upon learning of the intruder’s arrival, had dispatched Brita Brimgan instead.
"We need reinforcements." Brita Brimgan uttered upon staring at the face-off between two Mystic Grade existences in the Brimgan Sea. "Our Guardian strong, but I’m afraid even she cannot face him."
As a Brimgan Royal, Brita Brimgan was aware of the fight that happened in the Kalahatra Desert. He had seen the Information Slip given to him by the Palace, which directly came from Boul Brimgan himself.
Hence, Brita Brimgan knew how ridiculously powerful Root was, ’Why has the Quip Clan dispatched him here? Are they openly opposing us now?’
"Let me check something!" Saying so, Brita Brimgan assumed his Human Avatar form and rushed towards the port situated at the Brimgan Sea. Grabbing the closest Zinger Aristocrat stationed in the port, he roared at the top of his lungs, "Are you guys gone nuts?"
"Are you declaring war?"
"No...no, no!" The Zinger Aristocrat paled in response and shook her head, feeling the brunt of Brita Brimgan’s presence, "We cannot control Root. He only listens to our Representative, who is rushing here as we speak."
"I hope you speak the truth," Brita Brimgan flung the Zinger Aristocrat away with force, ignoring her form that crashed into a bunch of shipping crates. "Otherwise,"
Prana radiated off him in waves, covering his Spirit Weapon range of 3.6 kilometres and focused on every Quip Clansman within it. His voice reverberated in their ears, "WE will have to take measures."
...
’He isn’t listening.’ Ruvva observed Root’s figure make a beeline towards the Lotus Range and sighed, feeling a resounding headache. "Huff..."
"Pufff..." She inhaled and exhaled once, regulating her breathing as Prana circulated through her body faster.
Thump! Thump!
She accelerated her heart rate through psychokinesis, forcing blood to pump through her body faster and faster, until her body temperature started to rise. Her form morphed to transform into a 72-metre-long figure resembling a pangolin.
The head was more curved, the body more aerodynamic, and the scales covering the body were a bright gradient between gold and magenta. The tip of the tail was shaped like a ’U’, with its tips being close enough to almost make contact with each other.
A total of 12 pairs of legs covered the length of the body, the feet had webbed hooves. The scales were attached to a membranous layer resembling the wings, in that they could curl up around the body.
And when in a curled form, they could stack up on the back. As for what could be considered a back, there was none. All sides could take on that role, for the membranes allowed for a 360-degree movement around the cross-section.
The legs were attached to a ball-and-socket joint, allowing them to twist and turn in opposite directions. It could curl up in any direction and move the scaly layer to the opposite side for protection.
Such a flexible body arrangement required a compatible sensory means, which was provided by the scales that doubled as head, light, and sound sensors. They relayed all sorts of information to the creature through a network boosted by psychokinesis, ensuring there wasn’t even an instant’s delay in transmission.
After all, even the slightest delay was magnified in a creature that delved in the field of speed.
