I'll Surpass The MC
chapter-224

The Sandy-Grey Void was a mysterious place. No Pranic Beast ever dared to set foot within it, as their understanding of the region was an absolute zero.

Therefore, when the column of grey sand exploded from the ground, the Millingers didn't question it, instead assuming that the grey sand was turning the region unstable.

The Millingers cursed the Empyrean Zingers that caused this situation. But since they had already eliminated the troublemakers, there wasn't much they could do about it.

They only intended to hurry up and complete their mating session before returning to their habitat in the Red-Draft River.

Unlike the Centingers, the Millingers still had enough time. There were only eight female Millingers. And even if they take turns, they still have sufficient time to accumulate enough of the male Millinger's seed multiple times.

It was hard for a Millinger to conceive a child. The success rate was abysmal. If even one of the eight were to conceive a baby, this mating session could be considered a major success.

As Gold Grade Pranic Beasts, Millingers had a long lifespan. So, they had plenty of mating seasons to go through.

The eight female Millingers simply took on support and suppression roles, ensuring Fhoong Brimgan wouldn't escape from their encirclement. The male Millinger took charge of the actual fighting.

By now, all six of Fhoong Brimgan's Spirit Weapons had been destroyed, rendering him helpless. He created a Spirit Weapon and fought, but unlike the ones he refined for centuries, the newly created Spirit Weapons shattered upon a single attack.

Facing the artillery strikes of Millingers wasn't feasible for a Spirit Weapon that hadn't been refined extensively.

Steadily, Fhoong Brimgan kept losing control of the battle, unable to even flee. He couldn't do anything else, for nine Gold Grade Pranic Beasts targeted him. Escape was impossible.

Unlike Inala who had been registered as dead in the minds of the Millingers, Fhoong Brimgan was still alive. And he was their primary target. Hence, there was no way he could slip even a single body away.

Five, four, three, two…Body Stage; Fhoong Brimgan died one after another once his Prana was expended. And soon, his final body was shredded apart by the male Millinger's mandibles.

It crushed his body and swallowed it, unleashing a victorious shriek that excited the female Millingers. They pounced upon the male Millinger and began to mate vigorously, causing the ground to quake in response.

Inala kept watch from the peak of a hill thirty kilometres away, barely able to make out the figures of the Millingers that registered in his sight as tiny dots. If not for his enhanced sight thanks to the Empyrean Zinger's power, he wouldn't have been able to see that far.

The mating season soon ended as the group of Centingers and Millingers left the region. Immediately in response, water began to fill up the Angan River.

"Go, go, go!" Inala said in a hurry as he rushed towards the Capital City region alongside the Empyrean Zinger King, 36 Empyrean Zinger Commanders, and almost a hundred Empyrean Zinger Scouts.

The grey sand had crept upon a quarter of the capital city, "Transport it out!"

They hurriedly packed the grey sand in Prana Bombs after bending the space within to store as much as possible. Inala launched them all into the Sandy-Grey Void ring.

A day later, he slumped at the bottom of a large crater, exhausted, "It's done!"

He finished transporting all the grey sand, ensuring the region wouldn't be destroyed any further. If not for this grey sand, the Centinger colony wouldn't have left in such a hurry.

Had they been casual in their retreat, there was a solid chance the Millingers could sense the refugees hiding in the tunnels underneath the Rooster Tribe settlement. They had superior senses as compared to Centingers.

The grey sand was a necessity to hide traces of his actions. After all, the corpses of his puppet and the Empyrean Zinger King's puppet were quickly swallowed by the grey sand, hence not giving the Millingers any opportunity to investigate and discover the truth.

The Angan River's recovery was a sign for the four Silver Grade Pranic Beasts hiding in the region to resume activity.

The darkness in one region of the Sandy-Grey Void parted open, creating a path for the Boutique Lizard to walk out from its hiding spot.

Upon arriving at land, carrying its Ravaged Tribesmen on its back, it was surprised to see two thousand Free Humans standing before it, led by an armoured entity. It didn't take long for the Boutique Lizard to understand the situation at play.

The sole surviving Free Humans in this region were now at the Rooster Tribe Settlement, numbering forty thousand. The only way for the four Silver Grade Pranic Beasts to replenish the numbers of their Ravaged Tribes was through them.

Therefore, conflict was unavoidable.

The Boutique Lizard was the one responsible for laying the eggs that hatched Slump Lizards. These Slump Lizards formed the bottom of the food chain of this region and were the primary reason for the region's stable functioning.

Without their existence, a large amount of Pranic Beasts from the Red-Draft River would invade the Angan River.

The Carcass Snail's power controlled the Slump Lizards and kept them fed, allowing them to do their thing and maintain the region.

The Rooted Clam's power created a boundary in the Angan River, the primary reason why the Slump Lizards never left the Angan River. It was also the reason behind the Slump Lizards' nocturnal nature.

And finally, there was the Mudropper, the most important of them all, the only reason the Sandy-Grey Void ring was stably maintained in the region and allowed it to survive in the dangerous wilds of Sumatra Continent.

All four of them were vital for the region's continued existence. Hence, having conflicts with them was dangerous. The Rockatrice acted as the predator to keep the population of the Slump Lizards in check.

Inala killed it and took its role. With his capabilities, he could replace it. This way, he ensured the formulae running in the region wouldn't be hindered.

The two thousand people were meant as bribe for the Boutique Lizard. Through them, it could replenish its Ravaged Tribe and wouldn't feel the need to target the people under Inala's protection.

Moreover, there were too many Silver Grade Pranic Beasts on Inala's side, too terrifying to fight against. So, it no longer felt the need to target the latter's people. This was a compromise between both sides.

Two thousand Free Humans were sent to each of the four Silver Grade Pranic Beasts, ensuring they wouldn't harbour any dissatisfaction.

And now, it was time for Inala's Ravaged Tribe to come into existence.
