Chapter 260 Three Phase Technique
MINUTES EARLIER, AT THE GREEN MOON.
"Those little s**ts..." This was what Ray had muttered to himself as he watched the dust dissipating all around him. "F**king bastards!"
How could not Ray be happy, when he had just realized that he had been fooled by his opponents?
"Ray, just like what I told you earlier, the people that we just fought were just copies." Vera said behind Ray as she gave him a reproaching look. "They all sound funny, and I have seen people with duplication and triplication abilities back at my home planet."
"Well thank you for your advice then. It’s my fault that I did not listen to you." Ray replied angrily as he silently chided himself. "So, why did those Celestials only fight us with their clones?"
"I’m not sure either." Vera replied as she shook her head. "But from the way that they moved earlier, it seems like they were waiting for us to do something. As for what that something is, I have no idea on what could that be."
"....Well at least we were not forced to make contract with Peína." Ray replied as he stared at their green prisoner. "I still have to plant explosives inside him after all."
"..." Peína, the green prisoner, started to shudder as he heard the words that Ray had just uttered.
"So what should we do now? Should we attack those Celestials back at their home base?" Vera asked Ray as she seemingly ignored the scared appearance of Peína. "I do not know why their copies here suddenly dissipated, but this could be our chance to win!"
"Hold up for a minute first. This could be a trap." Ray hurriedly said as he raised his hands. "That dispelling of their clones? That could be their way to invite us in to their lair!"
"But there’s a chance that something bad had happened with their original bodies, that was why their copies were dispelled." Vera shot back as she seemed to not want to back down. "Why are you this wary Ray? Are you scared of them?"
"Don’t think that your insults will be enough to rile me, woman." Ray replied coldly as he glared at Vera. "Don’t think for a second that just because you are my Companion that I will be listening intently to you."
"But-"
"Are you forgetting the Soul Shredders that I placed inside you? Don’t get too ahead of yourself Vera, or your chance to be reborn will be blasted to ashes." Ray said in an uncompromising tone, prompting Vera to shut her mouth.
"Heh, you two might be powerful fighters, but under my explosives, you two are nothing!" Out of nowhere, Ray started to brag as he leered at Vera, who only glared back at him, and at Noelle, who was busy staring at the horizon right now.
"If you want to complain, just do that inwardly. Remember, I am the one that is taking hold of your lives, so you two should always listen to me. If not... then maybe Xi Men’s unfortunate end with me will be enough to remind you what happens to anyone who revolts against me."
"...And here I thought that you are changing to become a better person." Vera spat as she glared murderously at Ray. "Your attitude these past few days were already great, so I decided to treat you better. Who would have thought that you would be back to this kind of attitude."
"Do you want to be like Xi Men or what?"
"Okay, okay, I’ll close my mouth already." Vera grumbled angrily as she let out a sigh.
"...." As for Noelle, she did not say anything, as she continued on staring intently at the horizon.
"You, all of you buffoons. Gather around and reorganize yourselves. I’ll tell you what to do later." Once he was done disciplining his Companions, Ray immediately placed his attention on the Devourers, who sported some kinds of injuries during their battle with the cloned Celestials earlier. "Don’t you all dare disobey me now. You know what happens if you do."
"..." The Devourers, who were all known to be hot-tempered, only acted docile in front of Ray. They obediently followed his command, as they congregated on a spot that was 100 meters away from Ray and his Companions.
"Little dips**ts. I thought you were all strong, yet you already got this injured against those weak clones? Where are your tough bodies?" Ray thought to himself angrily as he observed the wounds of the Devourers. "Okay, I get it that those weapons were hella powerful. But y’all could have just dodged it! Why did you have to face those weapons head-on? Tsk, tsk, why did I even get stuck with them..."
After spending some more seconds on inwardly cursing the Devourers, Ray started to shake his head as he walked towards Peína.
The said prisoner only looked at the approaching Ray meekly, as if he was waiting to be judged by him.
"Peína, as per agreement earlier, I shall enter an Unbreakable Pact with you if and only if you will allow me to place my Three-Phase Technique inside your body." Ray smugly said as he placed his hands on his hips. "If you don’t, then feel free to stay here."
"...FINE MILORD, I SHALL ALLOW YOU TO PLAY WITH MY BODY... JUST BE GENTLE OKAY? THIS IS MY FIRST TIME AFTER ALL." Peína replied as he placed his head down. "MILORD, FEEL FREE TO RAVAGE ME NOW!"
"Ugh, ugh, ugh, please stop saying those things. You are making me feel sick." Ray replied in disgust as he placed his left hand on top of Peína’s head.
Without waiting for Peína’s reply, Ray immediately activated his powers up to their maximum limits.
[Initiating Scanning Sequence.]
Rows and rows of circles materialized above Ray’s palm, with each circle much smaller than the other.
These circles then entered Peína’s body, akin to the manner that a machine scans the interior of an object.
Once all the circles went through his body, Ray let out a smirk as he clenched his fist.
[Starting Planting Sequence.]
Three spherical objects, all the size of a tennis ball, appeared in front of Ray. Each of these objects looked unassuming enough, but any experienced fighter can feel that these objects were no normal objects!
[Planting Body Imploder.]
The first spherical objects flew and entered Peína’s chest, eliciting some groans of discomfort from the said prisoner.
historical
[Planting Sense Obstructor.]
The second spherical object then forced itself through Peína’s mouth, making the prisoner moan uncomfortably.
[Planting Soul Shredder.]
The third and final spherical object plopped itself through Peína’s forehead, which was followed by the prisoner slumping on the ground unconscious.
[Planting Sequence Complete.]
"Heh, if you just agreed to doing this earlier, then we might have already advanced our talks here..." Ray muttered in disappointment as he stared at Peína’s unconscious form.
"Okay everyone, just continue what you are doing there." Ray dismissively said as he waved his hands nonchalantly. "As for me, I shall wait for Peína to wake up first."
"After all, I still have a lot of questions to ask him."
