Beyond the do, Jyorta and the group rapidly backed away as intense heat emanated from within the do. Thanks to the Tier 3 Skill used by the Tier 3 Lava Turtle, the substance it had spewed out first had absorbed all the heat from the surroundings, turning it into a world of ice.
Then, it unleashed all the heat, combusting all the ice, turning it into a plasma world. The heat emitted was intense, moreover, the fire seed to have no intentions to stop. It was burning continuously and was increasing in heat by consuming all the materials within.
The Tier 3 Floating Spider had erected a sea of silk. And now, all of it was being consud to fuel the fire. The ability to turn any substance into fuel, that was the might of the Tier 3 Skill, Thermal Bloom.
The Tier 3 Skills of every race varied a lot. But each race had a set of Tier 3 Skills that conford to a certain effect or substance. As for the Lava Turtles, thanks to the Trait they were born with, their bodies were intensely hot. Moreover, at higher Tiers, just their Trait was enough to unleash a sea of flas using the air they breathed out.
Therefore, their Tier 3 Skills revolved around that, making use of their Trait. This did inhibit the versatility of their Tier 3 Skills, but in return, it increased their might. Moreover, it evolved the effects of the Trait into mysterious effects, giving them greater strength.
That was why the four Frenzy Beast racesLava Turtles, Floating Spiders, Spindle Bees, and River Whaleswere a cut above the rest of the Frenzy Beast races surrounding Marble City.
The Floating Spiders were able to fly. So, their Tier 3 Skills revolved around making use of their agility to create nurous effects.
The do was in flas, so Jyorta and the group were unable to make sense of the situation inside. They weren't careless, but instead were trying to sense for anything through their Tier 1 Skills.
"Did you find anything?" Jyorta looked at one of the Amplifiers who had the Tier 1 Skill, Aura Sense.
The Amplifier shook his head, "This is beyond what my Skill can sense. At present, the presence of the Tier 3 Lava Turtle has enveloped the entire do. As for the Tier 3 Floating Spider's presence, it has vanished."
Jyorta then looked at the others, finding that they too were the sa. The level of the fight itself blocked their abilities to a certain extent. All they could find out was bits and pieces of information.
Just the swirling energies in the do acted as a disturbance. Tier 1 Warriors were called Observers. It was because all their Tier 1 Skills did was observe what was shown to them. It was similar to the perception of sight by the eyes.
All the Tier 1 Skills functioned similarly. They didn't have any ans to penetrate the swirling energies and sense the truth hidden within. So, all they could do was collate the bits and pieces of information they obtained and see if it led to any conclusion.
Having understood about the Tier 1 Skills, Jyorta didn't say anything else. He heard their talks, finally able to conclude that the fighting entities within were still alive.
He then looked at Dalna Doppler, wondering if she could sense sothing else. The Tier 3 Skill, Energy Force was a versatile Skill. It was even capable of investigation. And, this investigation was a probing result applied by transmitting energy and sensing the changes in it.
Everything in the world had a force, including a hallucination. If there was a cause, there was an effect. And, if energy was used, albeit its form, thermal, chanical, potential, psychic, etc. then, it would be registered.
And when probed with energy, so sort of force would be registered in it as data. And, that was how users of the Tier 3 Skill, Energy Force sensed around. They were accurately able to pick up on and differentiate the type of energy used.
It was a reason they were highly valuable in every team. After all, with a single user of the Tier 3 Skill, a lot of their bases would be covered.
Dalna Doppler had her eyes closed the whole ti. And when Jyorta asked her, she subtly shook her sideways, motioning that both the Tier 3 Frenzy Beasts within were alive.
After five minutes passed in such a fashion, the flas in the do started to die down, allowing them to perceive the action within. And, when they saw it, their eyes widened in shock.
The Tier 3 Floating Spider, one that had been a tre in size at the start was now barely 10 centitres in size, the sa as a Tier 1 Floating Spider. And currently, it was perched on the back of the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's neck, tearing into it.
There were nurous substances, akin to shed skin stuck all over the do. They were slowly burning up. They seed to be a product of the Tier 3 Floating Spider's Tier 3 Skill, a reason it managed to survive the fiery hell.
But, it seed to have expended most of its energy in the process, looking weak. At the side lay the Tier 2 Lava Turtle, foaming in its mouth, bleeding. On its shell lay a massive hole, with the sides covered by silk while in the inside was another bundle of shed skin.
Even when it attacked in rage, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle had ensured to keep the firepower away from its Tier 2 brethren. So, it created a small cage to trap the Tier 2 Lava Turtle within, preventing it from entering the sea of flas and dying in the process.
The heat behind the flas was enough to kill it, despite it being a Lava Turtle.
And, the Tier 3 Floating Spider was well aware of this fact, having determined the ntal state of the Tier 3 Lava Turtle. So, using its Tier 3 Skill, it kept shedding its skin while darting to and fro in the do, throwing the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's senses off as it burrowed into the Tier 2 Lava Turtle's shell.
Using its abilities, it easily made a big enough hole in the Tier 2 Lava Turtle's shell and took refuge inside, weathering out the flas. Even then, it had to face the heat emitted by the Tier 2 Lava Turtle.
Upon getting injured, in its maddened state, the Tier 2 Lava Turtle activated its Tier 2 Skill and amplified the effect of its Trait to the limit, turning up the heat in its body, making it an oven for the Tier 3 Floating Spider that resided within.
If it killed the Tier 2 Lava Turtle, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle would notice it imdiately and attack it. So, it had no other choice but to passively endure the burning flas within. From ti to ti, it used its Tier 3 Skill to moult and heal all its injuries.
Though, this action was significantly energy draining. And, it seed the Tier 3 Lava Turtle was hell-bent on destroying the Tier 3 Floating Spider. So, it continued to emit flas constantly. It even used its tail to absorb all the water in the tub placed nearby, using it to create combustible substances, storing it in its body, planning to use it at opportune monts.
Five minutes later, the Lava Turtle had expended most of its energy, stopping when all the presences it had sensed were destroyed. The moulted skin too contained the Tier 3 Floating Spider's presence, imitating the original in liveliness, causing the Tier 3 Lava Turtle to assu them all as the originals.
That was why it continued to burn the place for so long. Despite everything, the do walls weren't even singed. They were still in their pristine state.
The mont the flas died down, the Floating Spider burst with all its speed, flashing onto the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's neck imdiately, latching on the back as it dug its mandibles within. It had been generating a certain toxin in its body, condensed using its Essence of Frenzy. So, its potency was unquestionable.
The Tier 3 Lava Turtle shouted in pain as its body was injected with toxins that instantly ruptured its nerves. At this ti, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle looked at its Tier 2 brethren, noticing that it was in a state of near-death.
As it didn't possess any healing thods, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle had no other choice but to watch its brethren die. Water vapour gushed out of its eyes as the Tier 3 Lava Turtle let out a moan in sadness. The Tier 3 Floating Spider was quickly cutting through its neck, about to sever it.
The toxin severed its nerves, preventing the transmission of information from its brain to the rest of its body. Moreover, the toxin also made its muscle fibres decompose, becoming a substance that wasn't able to tolerate its internal body heat.
It was getting destroyed. The Tier 3 Lava Turtle's neck moved, intending to clamp onto the Tier 3 Floating Spider. But, it wasn't as fast as its opponent. Rather, even though it was running low on energy, the Tier 3 Floating Spider's body was even smaller now, and hence was able to burst with enough speed that it looked like the interchange of two static pictures to the eyes of the students.
In one instance, it was on the back of the Lava Turtle's neck. In the next, it was atop its head. In such a manner, it flashed everywhere, tearing apart the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's body, inching closer and closer to victory.
The Tier 3 Lava Turtle was unable to even co close to it, grandly failing in the contest of speed. Finally, the Tier 3 Floating Spider flashed in the air, severing the neck of the Tier 3 Lava Turtle, killing it. It had just done so, intending to reap its spoils of war by devouring the opponent's Frenzy Parasite when it noticed a frightening presence emanate from within the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's corpse.
It exploded. And as if everything was planned, the Tier 3 Lava Turtle's shell collapsed into thousands of minute fragnts. And, the explosion sent the shell fragnts flying everywhere like shrapnel. It covered everything; there wasn't any safe zone within the do, for everything was burned down.
Drunk on its pyrrhic victory, the Tier 3 Floating Spider had let down its guard for an instant when the explosion occurred. More than a dozen shell shards pierced its body, boring holes as they flew out from the other side.
The Tier 3 Floating Spider's expression froze as the injury was critical, severely damaging it. But, that wasn't all. From the centre of the explosion ca another fire, acidic in nature. It latched onto the injured Tier 3 Floating Spider, eating through its body.
There wasn't even any screeching scream. Followed by a plop, the lted body of the Tier 3 Floating Spider fell on the floor, subrged by the flas.
