<h4>Chapter 472 Mystic Nature Weapon—Worm</h4>
?This Mystic Grade Ewworm would be a trump card effective against even the Boar King. It was why Brandal Brimgan was the most interested in it.
He could have chosen to equip Mystic Grade Nature Weapons in his Nature Slots, but he knew better than to do something that foolish. The sheer influence generated by it would consume and dominate his mind.
Hence, he only equipped two Silver Grade Nature Weapons onto his Nature slots. Of them, one worked in granting his Spirit Weapon a corrosive property simr to a Centinger''s power. The other existed to impose his will onto the Ewworm that would merge into his rectumter.
Over time, this would dominate the Ewworm''s mind, allowing him to control it as an extension of his limb. Moreover, he nned to destroy its mind from the get-go.
Brandal Brimgan took out the Gold Nature Weapon of Worm from his pocket and stared at it with a heated gaze. He had already extracted all Nature Weapons from Vir''s stomach biome, having confirmed it with the memories emitted by thetter.
In the same process as before, he equipped the Gold Nature Weapon of Worm onto an Ewworm and then brought it to the golden giant''s stomach. He threw it onto Vir, causing thetter to assume Nature Weapon form, having long since figured out the method to influence his Secondary Nature into doing so.
As Vir took on his Nature Weapon form, the Ewworm fell on him, instantly absorbing him into its vacant slot. Brandal Brimgan was still able to sense Vir thanks to the Spirit Weapon seal he had ced on thetter using thebined effect of eight Minor Treasures.
He then performed a series of actions, causing the Ewworm''s Primary Nature to fuse into the Gold Nature Weapon of Worm. Brandal Brimgan was of the misconception that he was making Vir do all this, when it was thetter doing everything on his own.
For the past six years, Vir had been using Brandal Brimgan to do what he wanted by selectively feeding him information. Due to the unshakable trust he had in the golden giant and the sheer value of sensitive information he had managed to extract from Vir, not for a moment did Brandal Brimgan ever suspect thetter.
Vir''s acting had been consistently on point until now, never breaking character for even a moment. Moreover, he truly gave away significant information, stuff that would definitely screw him up in the future.
But he had no other choice, for only by giving out such information could he control Brandal Brimgan. Besides, considering how Gann had obtained his everything, he wasn''t in the least concerned with this information leak.
Instead, he was going for aplete overhaul.
There was no guarantee of a n working, especially in Sumatra with so many variables at y. Hence, the moment things changed, Vir let go of all his ns and instead made the best of his situation. Getting the utmost benefits from every situation was how one could survive and excel in Sumatra.
He knew that by heart and was the one statement he repeated in his mind daily, as mental training. Otherwise, he''d be fucked without even realising why, especially since he was making a lot of mess everywhere.
The golden giant came as a surprise. But even without it, Vir would have figured out something spectacr once he managed to infiltrate the Brimgan Empire''s treasury.
Now, fooling Brandal Brimgan into thinking he was the one in control, Vir used Internal Astral Cultivator to fuel the Ewworm''s Primary Nature into the Gold Nature Weapon of Worm. Once the process was done, he ejected both himself and the Gold Nature Weapon of Worm out of the Ewworm.
Nowcking a Nature, the Ewworm was useless as Brandal Brimgan killed it and stored it in an empty container. He then repeated the same process as before, using Vir to refine the Gold Nature Weapon of Worm little by little, steadily watching as it continued to grow in presence.
Finally, after two years of nonstop repetition, therey the body of an Ewworm with a Mystic Grade Nature. As it was in contact with the golden giant''s stomach, its mind was almost dead, extracted of most of its information.
Only the bare minimum was left to ensure its mind was now in a state akin to a baby''s. This way, it was easier to impose Brandal Brimgan''s will on it once it fused with his rectum. Thereby, it would be easy to dominate it entirely.
"Hahaha, finally!" Brandal Brimgan chuckled with reddened eyes. He had already transferred all responsibilities to his son, including the title of Emperor. Moreover, he informed his retainers to never interfere with him unless absolutely necessary.
Only an Emperor had the qualifications to enter this cavern. And since he had warned everyone, especially his son, no one woulde to disturb him here. This was to ensure his secret n of raising a Mystic Grade Ewworm would never be revealed.
It wouldn''t be a trump card if everyone knew it after all. Moreover, to date, he hadn''t disclosed Vir''s capabilities of being able to refine and upgrade Nature Weapons. If he were to say it, his retainers would immediately understand his n considering he had brought over a hundred thousand Ewworms.
But now, they were of the assumption that he was using the Ewworms with Vir''s abilities to develop something that could be useful to their Raid.
Since he didn''t know how long it would take, Brandal Brimgan didn''t give out a deadline. Hismand was to focus on retrieving the Major Treasure of Attribute and continue training until he came out of research. Until then, the Boar King''s wife and family were to be spared.
"It was damn exhausting." He sighed and grabbed the Ewworm, intending to use it immediately when suddenly, Prana throughout his body began to head towards his Spirit Container, unleashing a gravitational field from there, one that began to pull his limbs towards the heart.
The sudden action surprised him when Brandal Brimgan noticed his vision spinning as a rope of hair had coiled around his leg and yanked him to the floor. ''Weaponisation!''
Right as he had the thought in realisation, Brandal Brimgan''s body mmed into the golden giant''s stomach, causing him to scream as information flowed out of his mind.
Dance of Annihtion!
Brandal Brimgan noticed in horror as suddenly, like pieces of puzzle assembling themselves into a unified whole, an Empyrean Tusk appeared in his mind space, dancing. It couldn''t be guarded as the influence radiated directly from his mind, rapidly causing his body to deform.
"You…!" He red at Vir, knowing that he had been yed and harnessed every ounce of his strength in an effort to crush Vir''s Spirit Container and put an end to everything. But shockingly, he was unable to do so, observing ayer of hair had pierced through the seal and formed ayer over the Spirit Weapon, protecting it.
It was just hair, but one that he failed to destroy. After all, though it might just be moustache hair, it had been influenced by the Major Treasure for six years. And Vir kept the most influenced portions ready to protect his Spirit Weapon right as he took action.
Had Brandal Brimgan tried it a few more times, he could have managed to crush the defences. But unfortunately for him, time was a luxury he couldn''t afford. His limbs had already shrunk to half the size by now as he realised it was futile trying to crush Vir''s Spirit Container.
Instead, he used psychokinesis to bring the Spirit Container stabbed into the cavern''s ceiling—using which he hovered in the golden giant''s stomach all along—and mmed it into Vir, shocked to see ayer of bone cover thetter.
When he shifted focus to control his Spirit Weapon, he was no longer focused on the Spirit Container Seal—it had to be controlled as a Spirit Weapon too.
And since in his current state, he was unable to perform the Skill of Spirit Weapon Switch, the Spirit Container Seal remained defenceless, allowing the reinforced moustache hair to clobber and shatter it.
As that happened, Vir was able to assume his Stage 2—
Exoskeleton—form, watching the Spirit Weapon pierce through his neck and almost manage to sever through. "Ha…hahahaha."
Virughed nervously as he pulled out the Spirit Weapon and used his exoskeleton armour to keep his neck attached and hurriedly regenerated the region, muttering upon seeing Prana stop surging out of Brandal Brimgan, "Bastard! Even after I exercised utmost caution,"
"You almost killed me!"
