YM778.TV Chapter 377 Jinns And Majins Were A Savage Race
The skill set she currently possessed had been carefully handpicked by her Master for this special reconnaissance mission.
Thirteen had tasked her to find the Brain Beetle\'s location.
Tiona was immune to mind-affecting abilities, so there was no danger of her falling under the enemy\'s control.
Just like always, the teenage boy was accompanying her through their connection, allowing him to sense what she was sensing.
\'It\'s not here, Tiona,\' Thirteen said. \'Maybe we should go deeper.\'
The Black Snake nodded in agreement and moved deeper under the ground.
Tiona was currently a mile deep into the Brain Beetle\'s nest, and the monsters that she had come across were only Rank 1 to Rank 3 monsters.
She sensed their presence through their Life Signatures, which allowed her to measure their strength at a safe distance.
When she was finally two miles deep underground, the readings she got became stronger.
This time, she could sense Rank 4 up to Rank 5 Monsters, so she made sure to move even more carefully.
After circling the surrounding areas, Tiona still didn\'t sense the monster they were searching for, which made her think that she needed to dig deeper. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Three miles…
Four miles…
Five miles…
When Tiona reached six miles deep underground, she felt the presence of Rank 6 Overlords.
Staying as far away as she could from them, she once again conducted her reconnaissance mission. An hour later, Tiona decided to rest.
She had come across a Rank 6 Sovereign, and it was giving a particularly powerful Life Signature.
Fortunately, it didn\'t pay any attention to her, giving her some peace of mind.
Thirteen, on the other hand, couldn\'t help but frown. Although he had expectations, he didn\'t think that the Brain Beetle\'s nest would be this deep and vast.
Even if he used Nautilus Main Cannons to bombard them, their attacks would not be able to reach the place where Tiona was currently at.
After resting for nearly half an hour, Tiona once again dug down.
The ground was starting to heat up, which he could feel through their shared senses.
Finally, after reaching seven miles deep underground, they sensed the Brain Beetle\'s life force, which was like a miniature sun.
But just as Tiona was about to leave after completing her mission, someone spoke inside her head.
"Well, hello there, Little One. I\'ve never seen you around here before. Why don\'t you come and chat with me for a while?"
Thirteen, who also heard the voice in his head, didn\'t hesitate to order Tiona to leave right away.
The Black Snake didn\'t need to be told twice and left the location as fast as she could.
"What\'s the hurry? Don\'t be afraid, Little One. I won\'t bite you."
The Brain Beetle spoke in a calm and friendly voice, which sounded like it was spoken by a very dear friend whom one trusted very much.
Of course, Tiona knew better than to reply to this monster and continued to make its escape.
Even after escaping for nearly three miles from the Brain Beetle, its voice still reached them, making the frown on Thirteen\'s face deepen.
When they reached the four-mile mark, the voice finally came to a stop, making the two finally breathe a sigh of relief.
\'Four miles,\' Thirteen thought. \'That is the range of the Brain Beetle\'s mind control. This Rank 8 Sovereign is really scary.\'
He knew that the closer the Brain Beetle was to its target, the stronger the Mind Control would be.
Wanderers might still be able to resist the Brain Beetle\'s power within the four-mile range. However, if it were to move closer and cut the distance between them into two miles, then its power would certainly become too powerful to resist.
If the Brain Beetle was only a mile away, Thirteen reckoned that even Monarchs, and Thrones would have a hard time resisting its control.
An hour later, Tiona returned to her Master\'s side, and the latter made sure to pamper her for safely completing her mission.
The data Thirteen had gathered in this expedition was enough to help him formulate a plan, which would give him the highest chance of success.
Even so, he understood that it wouldn\'t be as easy as it looked on paper.
He would need to get up close and personal with the Brain Beetle in order to give it the killing blow.
This meant that he and the three Valkyries, whom he planned to take with him, would be subjected to the greatest danger in this mission.
\'I will need to prepare suits that can withstand extreme heat for them,\' Thirteen thought. \'Fortunately, Giga and Rocky can swim even in molten lava.\'
When Tiona had sensed the Brain Beetle, she had also sensed one more strong monster with it, which was probably its bodyguard.
Unfortunately, she had been in a hurry to escape, so she and Thirteen didn\'t get to properly gauge its Rank.
However, Thirteen believed that it was definitely a Rank 6 Sovereign at the minimum.
In the worst-case scenario, it might be a Rank 7 Sovereign, which would make approaching the Brain Beetle harder.
Thirteen still had two weeks left before his competition with Renz ended.
Although Arthur had already defeated the Manticore King, he didn\'t plan to announce it right away.
He would only do that as a last resort if he failed to take down the Brain Beetle during the promised time.
While the teenage boy was busy thinking of ways to increase his chances of defeating the Brain Beetle, the monster in question was currently in the process of giving birth to an egg.
If Tiona had not hurried to escape and decided to take a closer look, she would have discovered that the most threatening monster in the Rigel Continent was actually pregnant and not in a good condition to fight.
This was also the reason why it had decided to hide seven miles underground, preventing anyone from knowing that it was at a crucial phase of its life.
It was not really hiding from the Wanderers because it believed that they would not be able to do anything to it.
The Brain Beetle was specifically hiding from the Jinns and Majins who might use this opportunity to take him down.
If the other Kings were to know its condition, all of them would not hesitate to eat it and its egg, which would guarantee them to break through to become Rank 9 Sovereigns.
The Jinns and Majins were savage races.
They not only fought against Wanderers but also fought against each other.
This was the reason why Camazotz had attacked his neighbors, who were trying to annex his territory and make him their subordinate.
Evuvug and the other Kings didn\'t really get along well either.
If not for the fact that it was afraid that all of them would gang up against it, it would have already subjugated its neighbors and put them under its control.
Evuvug could only dominate the minds of two monsters of the same rank at a time.
The Rank 9 Earth Dragons were immune to its abilities, so they had never been its target.
The dragons were the deterrence that their original Master from Gomorra had sent alongside them to make sure that all of them behaved and would not kill each other.
Unfortunately, even those Rank 9 Sovereigns might be tempted if they were to know the Brain Beetle\'s current condition.
Although it wasn\'t guaranteed, there was a chance for them to evolve into a Majin Prince if they were to consume its body right now.
This was why Evuvug was hoping that no one would disturb its peace for the next few weeks, allowing it to regain its strength after giving birth to its child, whose potential could easily surpass it.
