Chapter 394: Mass Murder



Chapter 394: Mass Murder

Once the two One-Horned Rhinos were killed, the Bundle Flea fished out their Heart Crystals. It then took a bite out of them, munching a tiny part of their legs. The Rigordile was fully satiated but still took another bite, in preparation for the upcoming fights. The River Whale didn't even glance at them, for it was brimming with energy.

Jyorta pocketed the Heart Crystals and gazed at the Bundle Flea, giving it a command. The Bundle Flea dragged the corpses to layer 3 and swiftly returned. It had used its hair to drag them while paddling through the way.

The Lava Turtle began to shout, causing the sound to echo all over the layer. As it was silent, with a gentle wind flowing over the dunes, its shout didn't lose much intensity when it reached the other end of the path.

It then inhaled a deep breath and breathed out a hot gust of air on the dunes, raising a dust cloud, generating winds that disrupted the flow in the layer. It raised the temperature in its body, causing the air it exhaled to become a powerful wind flow, similar to the thrust generated from aircraft propellers.

But, as it had to constantly inhale the air before exhaling the powerful breath, its disruptions were only intermittent. Still, it served to collapse the dunes, causing many traps inlaid in the area to be destroyed, alerting the Frenzy Beasts hidden under.

Crust-Mantles, One-Horned Rhinos, and Steel Porcupines, Frenzy Beasts from the three races burrowed out one after another in droves. As usual, the Recrows were unfazed, not participating in the chaos after taking a glance at Jyorta.

'Are they something domesticated by Marble City?' Jyorta had his doubts as he observed the actions of the Recrows every time he had explored layer 2. He then shook his head, intending to investigate at a later date, 'I have to focus on my development now.'

More than a hundred Frenzy Beasts had burrowed out from the sands, mostly at Tier 1. With a swift inspection, Jyorta sensed the presences of eight Tier 2 Frenzy Beasts among the mix. Among them, only one was at the mid-stage of Tier 2, rest were all at the early stages of Tier 2.

Aura PersonificationHallucination!

Jyorta began his attack, making all the Tier 1 Frenzy Beasts fall under his hallucination. They just stared blankly into space, unsure as to what they had to do. The Tier 2 Frenzy Beasts resisted for 3-4 seconds before falling under his control. Finally, the Frenzy Beast at the mid-stage of Tier 2, a Steel Porcupine resisted for almost 10 seconds.

Aura Induction!

Jyorta felt the mental strain, experiencing a headache after exerting himself to such extents. His psychic arm turned pale blue and healed him, reducing the strain he felt by a large margin. As it continuously healed him, Jyorta felt somewhat relaxed.

But, the psychic energy expenditure increased drastically. His psychic arms also had to shield the aura in the air and the heat the Lava Turtle was spewing out nonstop. They all increased his expenditure. Thankfully, he had the River Whale to bank on. His Soul Corneas supplied him with a steady stream of psychic energy and kept his energy levels at maximum.

Once all the Frenzy Beasts that had appeared fell under his control, Jyorta gazed at his party, motioning for them to start working. The River Whale stayed silent, unmoving. Jyorta treated it as his mobile fortress, unwilling to make it fight unless the situation was dire enough.

The other Frenzy Beasts were more than capable of doing the manual work, especially the Bundle Flea that was perfect for multitasking. Even the time it took to kill a Frenzy Beast varied greatly with respect to the others.

In the time the Lava Turtle killed a Frenzy Beast, the Rigordile killed two, the Hunter Clam killed three, and the Bundle Flea killed three while also fishing out their Heart Crystals. Less than ten minutes had passed before they had killed all the Frenzy Beasts.

The River Whale moved in conjunction with them, floating in the air. Jyorta moved to its underside, sitting upon its flipper that it had curved to hold him in place. Now, he was closer to the scene of carnage, the souls of the slain Frenzy Beasts within his range. He used it to safely pull in their souls and store them in their respective soul husks.

'Though, it would take me immense time to comprehend all their memory fragments. And, I can only proceed with that after I have vaporised their murkiness and corroded their ego. Everything would need a lot of energy.' Jyorta sighed, 'Do I have no other choice but to target a Bone Family Shifter?'

Only a Shifter and a Transformer in his Bone Family possessed the Unranked Skill, Bone Devour. With that, they could devour Frenzy Beasts and instantly replenish their energy reserves. With one of them under him, Jyorta wouldn't have to be concerned about a lack of energy ever again.

But, it wasn't morally sound to do something like that. Even if he wished, Jyorta couldn't hope to do it and be guilt-free. He would be plagued by it for the rest of his life, just like his memory of killing his classmates in school.

Jyorta stored the souls in their respective soul husks while placing the presences within his tattoo world. The moment a presence appeared within it, it instantly entered a state of inactivity while its aura seeped out of the tattoo and escaped into the air. Only its presenceits personificationremained within the tattoo world now.

The smell of the blood condensed, spreading throughout layer 2, luring in more Frenzy Beasts. The moment they appeared above ground, they fell under Jyorta's hallucination, slithering on the sand as they appeared near him, getting killed by the Frenzy Beasts he controlled.

Using Aura Induction, Jyorta spread his aura personification of hallucination throughout the layer, slowly eradicating the ambient aura in the region and replacing it with his. He also blasted a couple of weaker aura beams into the air to swiftly destroy the ambient aura.

This way, his aura personification of hallucination travelled spread faster, getting increasingly potent. Three hours passed in such a manner before no more Frenzy Beasts drilled out of the ground. All the Frenzy Beasts in the layer had been killed, including the Recrows.

Whether they were domesticated by Marble City or not, Jyorta wasn't sure, so instead of wasting the chance due to doubt, he placed them under his hallucination and killed them using the Frenzy Beasts under him. "I have become a mass murderer."

He sighed, noticing that he wasn't perturbed with killing the Frenzy Beasts, even if the reason was just a desire to grow stronger. At his current level and foundation, they neither were a threat to him nor had they tried to kill him. Still, he killed them like mowing a lawn of all its grass.

As someone who had once frowned upon the notion of killing to have become an individual that reaped lives like nothing; everything had changed within one year. Jyorta dared not think about how much more he would change after he was thrust into the real world after graduation. That time, he would come to face the real society dominated by the parasites.

Once every Frenzy Beast in the layer was killed, the Frenzy Beasts under him dragged their corpses to layer 3 and piled it up there. The corpses created a hill range, touching the ceiling that was at a height of 30 metres.

As layer 2 had loose sand while a gentle wind blew continuously, there was a good chance everything would be buried in a matter of hours. To prevent that, Jyorta made the Frenzy Beasts dump all the carcasses in layer 3.

After that, they began feasting on them while Jyorta pocketed all the Heart and Brain Crystals the Bundle Flea handed over. Once they had recovered a fair extent of their energy reserves, Jyorta made the Rigordile carry the intact Lava Turtle shell while they headed towards layer 1.

Arriving at the end, Jyorta faced the wall of web. With a command, the Rigordile smashed the Lava Turtle's shell into it, using it to force its way through and tear it down. A large blanket of web fell on it, a resultant of its violence.

The Rigordile used the Lava Turtle's shell to shield itself and make a retreat. The shell remained stuck in the wall of web that had now been torn down. The Floating Spiders were stirred up from the commotion, their screeches following suit.

The Spiked Lizards woke up and gazed at the end of layer 1, noticing the figure of the Rigordile that had been the source of the commotion. The Rigordile leaped and crossed the part of the floor covered by the web, making crunching sounds as its landing shattered some rocks.

The Lava Turtle followed suit, unleashing hot air upon the web, slowly melting them until their adhesiveness disappeared. It then stomped on them and walked forward. The Bundle Flea followed suit, curling itself into a ball before crossing the area with a jump.

Finally, the River Whale sauntered in, its hulking body blocking the retreat path. The Lava Turtle's back shone with red radiance, faintly brightening up the area. Jyorta gave a mental cue to the River Whale, causing it to open its mouth and unleash a powerful roar.

The rocks on the floor rattled, the sound coursed through the webs, vibrating them, causing unrest to both the Spiked Lizards and the Floating Spiders respectively. The Spiked Lizards hooted, jumping onto the walls or any large boulders they found. The Floating Spiders screeched, taking off to the air, swirling about as they proceeded to fly towards the source of chaos.

The commotion frightened the Two-Faced Fireflies, causing them to take to the air and unleash light from their backs. The entire layer was instantly brightened, allowing Jyorta to watch the droves of Frenzy Beasts flying his way. He smiled, poising his hand towards the approaching foes.
