Chapter 198 The Possibility Of Breaking
Devastated!
That word can describe the state of the Wilwatikta Kingdom after the war with the Quadruple Arachnid horde.
When Moku managed to beat the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee, he immediately lost consciousness due to exhaustion and his remaining dragon prana condition drastically. His brain automatically shuts down his body to prevent future wounds before his condition actually becomes fatal.
The Valkyrie Squad that managed to defeat the rest of the arachnid bees won their battle for nothing. The girls were badly injured and had it not been for Nezena sacrificing all of her mana to support them from behind there would likely have been girls who would not have been saved. Especially Claire and Vivi who for the first time plunged into the battlefield directly.
If that happens, the newborn monster kingdom will lose a very precious female human and the baby in their womb. Luckily Boku and Goku were able to quickly defeat the Golden Tier Danger Arachnid Bee and help them.
Even so, all members of the Valkyrie Squad suffered serious injuries that made them have to rest immediately without being able to move their bodies at all. Boku and Goku who are still surviving try to exile them to a safer place while waiting for the battle between Moku and the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee to end.
But the worry was clear in their eyes because the condition of their two wives was quite severe. Even so with the regeneration of the orcs and the fetuses trying to save their mother, Claire, and Vivi would still be able to recover in the next few months.
The most concerning condition of them all are Nerphyl. She doesn't have the ability to regenerate like other Valkyries. Even though her current body was on par with a Silver Tier Danger Mutated Animal, with the injuries she sustained there would be the possibility of an infection that could threaten her.
Even so, the monsters can only stay still and try to treat it with makeshift tools.
Currently, they couldn't ask for help from the Wilwatikta Kingdom. The operation they carried out was a subsidence operation whose aim was to be able to reach the enemy's rear as soon as possible.
So that currently between them and the Wilwatikta Kingdom, tens of thousands of Quadruple Arachnid are still frozen waiting for orders from their queen. By killing the Arachnid Queen, the Quadruple Arachnids will not move to attack them, but if anyone gets within their attack range, their self-defense instinct will be active.
As a result, with Boku and the others' current condition, it was impossible for them to retreat back to the Wilwatikta Kingdom. They were no longer able to fight, even if they were attacked by a hundred Arachnid Warriors then all they could do was helplessly await death.
What worried him, even more, were the orcs who were still buried under the ground from the Arachnid Queen's explosion. Even with the strength of an orc's body and the second level of breathing technique, there was little chance of them surviving if they were buried in the ground for too long.
However, Moku is again able to show them the bright path. He managed to defeat the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee. As a result, the Quadruple Arachnid got out of control and started running around aimlessly, many of them immediately dropped dead when the connection with the hive-mind was lost, and the rest could no longer be categorized as dangerous.
A few hours later the monsters came from Bitter Maja and saw the condition of the forest which seemed to have been turned back and forth by a giant's hand.
With Nevare's condition being bad enough, Widya took over as the leader. They immediately divided the team to dig the ground and find the buried orcs. With the help of the alraune, they managed to find some orcs and save them from certain death.
Even so, it was too late and as the result, there had been heavy casualties from the orcs. Of the 12 orcs who participated in this operation, two orcs were found dead from severe injuries and buried in the ground. Even with the resilience and regenerative abilities of the orc's body, they still could not survive when crushed by tons of soil and lack of oxygen.
The three orcs were Gul, and Clog.
In addition, there are also victims from goblins, sylphs, and alraune. Even though they were protected by the Orc's Burrow and had taken the antidote to defend against the poison gas ball bombardment they were unable to completely neutralize its effects.
The poison gas ball not only has an effect when it is inhaled in the air but also when it is splashed on the skin. Monsters other than orcs didn't have the ability to regenerate so their bodies couldn't prevent the poison from spreading through the blood. Even though the alraune had tried hard to save them but they were also affected by the poison that was in the monsters' bodies.
Currently, the Wilwatikta Kingdom's numbers and strength had decreased drastically, if there was a war of the same scale occurring in the near future then it was highly likely that they would be destroyed. They needed to rest for quite a long time, not only to recover their strength but also to strengthen their position.
Even orcs whose hobby was the war would no longer be able to raise their weapons any time soon. But the reality says otherwise...
The mage troop that Moku saw in Glittering Meadow will definitely approach Bitter Maja in the near future. The war that occurred in this place could not be missed by the mages and based on the meddlesome nature of humans, they would immediately send scout troops to investigate.
The monsters who realized this started to doubt their chances of survival. There were even those among them who doubted the decision to join the orcs in order to survive together.
It was true that they had grown stronger rapidly, but at the same time, the dangers they had to face were many times greater than they had ever felt. For monsters meeting a mutated animal was death but within a few months, they had already fought a mutated animal horde with a Mithril Tier Danger Mutated Animal as their queen.
Hiding or having to fight there was no way they could decide on their own. For that, they started looking for Moku who had not returned after his victory against the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee. There is a feeling of fear in their hearts that Moku's victory will be his last victory.
If at this time the Wilwatikta Kingdom lost Moku then it was certain they would soon collapse without any enemies approaching. The only reason monsters of different races didn't devour each other was that Moku had powers that they could all bow and admire.
Without Moku, they will return to a life of mutual hostility and prey on each other.
Boku, Widya, Nevare, Nerphyl, and several monsters know this, so they form an elite team that aims to find Moku. Luckily the place where Moku and the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee were fighting had become a flat land with nothing blocking their vision.
In the middle of the flat land, there is a deep hole as if formed by a giant creature hitting the ground with all its might. Inside the hole, you can see the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee's body which is no longer moving with two gaping holes in it.
The monsters had no idea what had happened during Moku's fight against the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee and those nearby were too focused on survival to pay attention to the fight taking place elsewhere.
Together the monsters pushed the Platinum Tier Danger Arachnid Bee's body and saw an asura behind it.
The asura was covered in gaping wounds all over its body. Red blood flowed onto the ground and made it damp. His legs were stumped and one hand was missing, although movement was still visible from his chest, it was confirmed that he was in critical condition.
That Asura is Moku.
Even though his face was covered in blood and some of the cheekbones were crushed, the monsters could still recognize Moku by his smell which was difficult to recognize due to the smell of blood all over his body.
Immediately the alraune led by Luna herself tried to save their leader.
They had never seen Moku hurt this badly, it was not seen that the asura's extraordinary regenerative abilities were trying to repair his body. So with that, it is confirmed that currently, the dragon prana in Moku's body is in a critical state.
The remaining dragon prana can only help Moku to survive not heal his wounds. For this reason, the first thing Luna did was to replenish the dragon prana that was in Moku's body.
The Dragon Breath Cultivation technique could only be used by an orc or asura, and its purpose was to convert the nutrients within the body into dragon prana. Luna was unable to use the Dragon Breath Cultivation technique nor could she help Moku to convert the nutrients within his body into dragon prana.
However, after various experiments assisted by Lesnen and research to make mana cream, Luna discovered how to extract mana from the mana organs in the bodies of mutated animals.
Immediately he ordered me the monsters to collect mana organs and make mana cream.
Mana cream is then squeezed hard so that it becomes a liquid that is like blue milk. By drinking the blue milk, mana will immediately enter Moku's body.
Unlike the mana organs that are eaten directly and turned into nutrients before being converted into dragon prana with Dragon Breath Cultivation, mana has the properties of predators and prey with dragon prana. Whenever dragon prana senses mana entering the orc's body, they will react immediately to eat it and turn it into dragon prana.
That's why the fastest way for an asura to restore his dragon prana is to eat the mana organs.
Confirming that Moku would be able to survive, the monsters started marching back toward Bitter Maja.
