"I see," Resha nodded and turned silent.

The silence only caused Virala to break out in cold sweat further, 'What the fuck is wrong with this guy?'

Virala was completely bluffing. He was simply using two Prana Shocks at the same time to unleash a combined effect that seemed on par with the Primary Nature of a Silver Grade Pranic Beast.

The Boar King had previously demonstrated the ability by using ten Prana Shocks simultaneously. That level of power was tremendous. Upon seeing that, Virala was inspired to create the perfect cover for his power.

During the chaos, he sneak attacked two Mammoth Clansmen that had recently become elites. They had fused with a Shock Lizard. Hence, he obtained two Nature Weapons with the power of Prana Shock.

By equipping them, he could behave as if he chanced upon a Mutated Shock Lizard egg and fused with it. The blame could easily be placed on the Zingers. After all, Zingers indeed raided and stole the eggs of other Pranic Beasts.

So, it wasn't unusual for one to chance upon an egg or two in a Zinger colony. Many in the shelter at the 43rd Settlement had witnessed him leap out and board a Zinger to crash into a Zinger colony. That served as an alibi for him obtaining this power.

He could easily say that he was desperate due to the sheer power displayed by the Zingers during the First Major Disaster. Hence, he had taken such risks, especially since as a Death Row student, that was his only option. He only had two more months left to live.

'A Shock Lizard, really? After everything this guy did before, he obtained the power of a Shock Lizard?' Resha found it hard to believe. But the effects he witnessed were proof enough, 'What made him obtain such a power?'

The six reincarnates knew things from his past life. And they took action and did things that he could never even think about. Resha failed to understand how that was possible.

He intended to interrogate Grehha later. And with that in mind, he followed Virala from some distance away, wondering what the latter did. He felt the most threatened by Virala for some reason.

And hence, if he still perceived the threat, he intended to deal with the latter right here. There would be no problems if he were to do that.

"So, what are you here for?" Virala didn't give Resha time to think, instead asking, "Surely you didn't coincidentally chance upon me this far away from our settlement?"

"Let's see" Resha calmly condensed a bone hammer and gripped its handle tight. An instant later, he flickered towards Virala, "Why don't you reveal whatever you're hiding?"

Prana Shock (x2)!

Virala charged up two waves of Prana Shock in both hands and clapped aloud, unleashing an arc of shockwave that slammed into Resha, barely managing to halt him for an instant. Virala clapped repeatedly, sending stronger waves, grunting as even though the ground cracked in response to his power, all it did was hold Resha in place.

But a second later, Resha calmly walked towards Virala, causing him to curse mentally, 'Fucking monster! This isn't even doing anything to him."

"Why are you imitating that bastard?" Resha changed the hammer into a spear and thrust forth, puncturing Virala in the gut, "That's the fastest way to trigger me."

Virala was indeed imitating the Boar King, for that was the greatest display of power he could reference.

"Guh!" Virala coughed out blood as he almost fainted from being stabbed in the gut. The spear peeked out from his back, dripping blood, "Bastard!"

"Are you that desperate to kill us all?" Virala spat the blood that had collected in his mouth, intending to splash it upon Resha's face and blind the latter. But the blood simply swerved around the latter and splattered on the ground.

"Why do you care?" Resha retracted the spear and stabbed again, "I can do whatever I want, alright?"

"Fucker, you're trying to kill me. Of course, I care about that." Virala grunted as a sphere of Prana hovered before him, blinding as it became conical in shape. Immediately in response, it unleashed a concentrated beam on Resha, sending him skidding back by a few metres.

The frequency of shockwaves impacting Resha every second continued to increase, from ten to twenty, to thirty, increasing steadily as Virala's Prana levels dropped alarmingly.

"Guh!" Virala dropped to the ground, exhausted as blood continued to drip out of his body. Suddenly, a bone slab fell out.

Resha glanced at it as the bone slab flew towards him. He grabbed it and inspected it, "A Spy Bone detector?"

"Look into it, you'll be surprised." Virala wheezed as blood continued to drip out of his body. By now, he had sneakily seeped two charges into the ground that moved underground and exploded from underneath a lava stream.

The concentrated shockwaves sent the lava flying like a geyser, impacting Resha from two sides. But all they did was swerve around him, with not even a drop touching him.

Resha didn't retaliate and instead brimmed with anger as he growled, "Who did you place this Spy Bone Fragment upon?"

"Blola," Virala said, continuing to unleash more lava geysers on Resha, "After I fused with the Mutated Shock Lizard egg, the mountain I was upon collapsed. When I recovered, I noticed Blola returning. I sneaked this on him during then."

"And unlike me, he was stronger." Virala commented, "From what I know, I can conclude what he did."

"You didn't forget the conversation we had at Ennoudu Plains, right?" He taunted.

In response, Resha lashed forth with a sword that expanded in length, intending to sever Virala into two. But suddenly, a plate of energy formed between the two, casually tanking the attack.

Resha looked around, unable to determine where it came from. 'Did Virala do it? Is he finally revealing his trump card?'

He then noticed Virala charging a powerful attack, one strong enough to even send him flying. But it was simply a powerful attack using Prana Shock. The mysterious energy slab seemed to be someone else's.

"Attack a Clansman one more time, and I'll eliminate you." A cold voice brimming with authority resounded.

"Tch!" Resha realised the Mammoth Clan Chief had taken action. He was the Chief of the larger herd that arrived at the end of their fight with the Boar King. And even after the merger, he was still the Chief.

After all, he had reached the peak of cultivation. There didn't exist an opponent that could challenge him. Only powerful Gold Grade Pranic Beasts and the Boar King were his opponents.

He could control an entire region without personally moving, all thanks to his special ability. The fact that such a person had taken action meant Resha could forget killing Virala.

"Consider yourself lucky." Resha snorted.

"I have been nice to you all along, but you dared try to kill me not once, but twice. Fine then, I'll stop showing you mercy." Virala calmly got up, despite his injuries as he snorted, "Blola returned an Empyrean Tusk, just like you. Do you know what that means?"

"You orphaned bastard!"
