Psychic Parasite

Chapter 447: Thermal Bloom

Humanity was the strongest race on earth. If not for the existence of Rhachis Ancestor Parasite, humanity would have dominated the earth eventually. It was a truth every Frenzy Beast with sufficient intelligence knew.

As Developers, they were especially clear about this fact. After all, every time they confronted humans, their numbers had to be at least thrice the opponents. And even then, they had a considerable chance of being wiped out.

That was the might of humanity, the strongest race.

Therefore, the moment they were being swarmed by the humans, the Lava Turtles first decided to defend themselves to the limit and seek reinforcements from the other three Frenzy Beast racesFloating Spiders, Spindle Bees, River Whales.

Only when combined would they be able to resist the might of humans and push them back. So from the start, they had been on the defensive. Even when their strength was evenly matched, the Lava Turtles didn't notice anything amiss.

They were just under the assumption the humans were holding back. After all, Rhachis Ancestor Earth was still getting wounded. So, they thought the humans wished to enslave all the Lava Turtles after killing their Ancestor.

Even though they were desperate, they still had hope that the other races would come to reinforce them.

But now that it noticed the change, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle seethed with hatred.

Betrayal!

The Floating Spiders had betrayed them and disguised as humans to attack them. As the Lava Turtles passively defended in fear of humanity, the Floating Spiders used the fear to their advantage to reap greater benefits.

The reinforcements they were hoping for wouldn't come. After all, the reinforcements themselves were the instigators. Normally, no Frenzy Beast race would be able to pull this off. But, there was one family among the Floating Spiders capable of this feat.

The Warlord Family!

Headed by Rhachis Ancestor Warlord, they possessed the Unranked Skill, Greater Warlord. So, they were able to use the Tier 3 Skills of humanity, becoming one of the greatest threats.

And, it seemed Rhachis Ancestor Warlord had disguised itself as Rhachis Ancestor Light to pummel Rhachis Ancestor Earth. Rhachis Ancestor Warlord was stronger than the other Frenzy Beast Ancestors, so taking down Rhachis Ancestor Earth one-on-one was easy.

The Tier 3 Lava Turtle had ignored the fact that only Transformers among the Warlord Family possessed the Unranked Skill, Greater Warlord. After all, the base material to make it was a human Transformer. It wasn't something easy to obtain.

So, the number of Floating Spider Transformers with this Unranked Skill were few and far in-between.

The Tier 3 Lava Turtle swerved its head, watching the crying figure of a Tier 2 Lava Turtle on its right. It was no longer able to think straight, mentally overwhelmed by what it witnessed. There was a shell floating in the water right beside it. It belonged to their Ancestor.

Upon seeing the shell, it too was overwhelmed. But more than despair, it seethed with rage. Wrath churned within it as it wished to rend the betrayers apart. Its body turned hotter and hotter when it noticed a Tier 3 Floating Spider fly towards them with speed, accompanied by a couple of Warlord Floating Spiders.

"I'll make you a cage. Have fun with those two." One of the Warlord Floating Spiders said as it erected a cage around them. The Tier 3 Lava Turtle was unable to react, for the opponent's ability was instantaneous.

Instantly, it found itself to be on the floor, with barely any water around it. All that existed was a small tub made of floating spider silk. And contained within it was water that seemed familiar.

The Tier 3 Lava Turtle noticed its Tier 2 brethren had lost its mind by now and entered a state of frenzy, heading straight towards a sea of spider silk created by the Tier 3 Floating Spider. It could hear the chuckling screeches of the two Warlord Floating Spiders from beyond.

Even if it was just one, it wished to kill the Floating Spider. The air around it billowed and caught fire, turning into a sphere of flames as the Tier 3 Lava Turtle opened its mouth, puffed its body hidden underneath the shell, and unleashed a thunderous roar.

Dalna Doppler kicked the entrance to the Tier 3 Floating Spider's dome with her leg and stepped back immediately, unable to bear the heat wafting out from the Tier 3 Lava Turtle.

At present, Jyorta had seeped a psychic arm into the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's head, controlling it with greater effectiveness. He did the same to the Tier 2 Lava Turtle as he nodded, signalling the Tier 3 Spindle Bee to take action.

The Tier 3 Spindle Bee gently positioned itself above the Tier 2 Lava Turtle's neck and pierced it with its stinger, injecting its venom. The venom flowed into the Tier 2 Lava Turtle, causing it to enter a state of frenzy.

But, the Tier 3 Spindle Bee didn't stop, injecting more and more venom into the Tier 2 Lava Turtle until it went berserk. Now, until it dies, it wouldn't be able to recover from the berserk state. It was unless a Ground Controller suppressed it and treated it completely.

But chances of that happening were none. So, its fate was decided. In the meantime, they used some of the excess silk stored in the Web World to make a makeshift tub that they used to bring in some of the boiling water from the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's dome.

Once the preparation was done, Jyorta continued to change the hallucination as all of them entered the Tier 3 Floating Spider's dome. Immediately, once the two Lava Turtles and the tub with boiling water were inside, they retreated as Jyorta finished the hallucination, leading it up to the current scene.

This way, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle wouldn't think of its previous memories. It would only think the dome was a stage created by the Warlord Floating Spiders for the Tier 3 Floating Spider to have some fun.

Its mind was already overwhelmed to a considerable extent. And it was consumed by fury. The Tier 3 Spindle Bee had also injected it with a bit of venom. Adding all, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle wasn't able to think straight.

Moreover, it didn't have the fortune of time to do so. After all, its Tier 2 brethren had already gone berserk. In such a situation, it didn't wish to lose another of its brethren. Its desire to protect its race had been triggered.

A step-by-step plan of action that used the best of his available variables. Jyorta had quickly come up with a plan of action to utilise their disadvantages and act based on their opponents.

Even though the effects of the hallucination had worn off, the Lava Turtles in the seventh coil were still crying from time to time. So, as the Tier 3 Lava Turtle heard the sounds, it knew their Ancestor hadn't managed to one-up their opponent yet.

So, even though Jyorta had completely retracted his aura personification of hallucination, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle was still trapped in that place. It was because he had mixed in bits of reality into the hallucination. Now, when it saw the same bits, in reality, its thought process caused it to think it was still there, in the hallucination.

And in its current mental state, it wasn't able to logically counter the flaws in the setup. After all, just a sensory gaze would cause it to notice the students standing outside. But, even if it saw them now, it would first assume they were the Warlord Floating Spiders that had completely disguised themselves as humans to watch the fight.

After all, at the start, the Floating Spiders had disguised themselves as humans and ambushed the Lava Turtles. Any logical flaws that popped up, it used the bits in hallucination to fill them up. At present, its own mind was working against it.

Seething with rage, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle roared. The roar was so powerful, it resounded throughout the Graduation Ceremony Battlefield. And, the emotions carried within its voice further caused the Lava Turtles on the seventh coil to cry out louder.

They took turns to doom themselves further into the illusionary abyss.

The Tier 3 Lava Turtle looked at its Tier 2 brethren, breathing out a gust of air towards it. The exhaled air caught aflame and swerved around the Tier 2 Lava Turtle, burning all the silk surrounding it.

Its shell wriggled slightly before forming holes in some nook and cranny, using them as vents to suck in the surrounding air. Its body ballooned before the Tier 3 Lava Turtle looked at the flashing shadow of its detestable foe, opening its mouth to unleash a torrent of air.

But, the air seemed to be mixed with the fluid secreted in its body. It didn't burn anything or catch onto fire like before. But, it seemed to be a fluid that turned into mist immediately. The mist seemed throughout the dome as the Floating Spider unleashed something of its own, condensing a formless substance around itself.

But, the Lava Turtle's attention latched onto the Tier 3 Floating Spider's position. Its eyes shone with a cunning glint as its presence vanished entirely.

Tier 3 SkillThermal Bloom!

The mist stopped moving all of a sudden, latching onto all the silk in their immediate vicinity in an instant. Then, they began to siphon all the heat within everything they touched. They didn't affect the Tier 2 Lava Turtle that crashed into a couple of silk threads, shattering them like glass.

The entire dome lost every ounce of heat, turning into one massive block of ice. But, a second later, the ice turned into plasma.

A shadow flashed through it as the entire dome caught up in flames.
