I'll Surpass The MC

Chapter 651 Time To Target Brangara

He had Brandal Brimgan\'s memories, through which he knew that Boul Brimgan had been sent to infiltrate Influenced Regions of Major Treasures for a variety of reasons, one of which was to elevate Gold Kinesis Art into Mystic Kinesis Art.

Considering the Brimgan Empire\'s geographical location, the closest Influenced Regions were the Armoury and Sanctuary. It was apparent where Boul Brimgan had gained benefits from thanks to his golden feline.

When a Brimgan Royal uses Gold Kinesis Art to refine a piece of Rutham into a Spirit Weapon, their Prana constantly seeps into it and becomes a part of it, strengthening it over time. Eventually, when refined to the extreme, a special characteristic is given to it, depending on the Prana—body, mind, and soul aspects.

Boul Brimgan had infiltrated the Sanctuary and used the influence of the Major Treasure of Pet on his Prana to refine his Spirit Weapon, which resulted in it turning into the golden feline when the Spirit Weapon gained a second characteristic.

The first characteristic of a Spirit Weapon made out of Rutham was its range. The second characteristic was gained when it became a Minor Treasure.

In Harla Brimgan\'s case, there was no external stimulus. Hence, her Minor Treasure was just a Spirit Weapon capable of having a source—for psychokinesis—other than her. This source was a thumb-sized sphere capable of moving across all sorts of terrain while rotating rapidly.

Aware of the intricacies with which the second characteristic was developed, Virala targeted the best option—the Transcendent Eater.

He consumed it daily and relied upon the Transcendent Eater\'s characteristics—present in its flesh and blood—to refine his Spirit Weapon. Eventually, the Tool growing at the tail end of his Mystic Ewworm form was influenced by the Transcendent Eater once it turned into a Minor Treasure.

Composed of the most potent minerals that made up the Influenced Region of Golden Deity and stabilised by a piece of Sumatra Gold, Virala\'s Spirit Weapon was capable of handling and manifesting the Transcendent Eater\'s characteristics to a greater extent.

The Minor Treasure of Mystic Human Stamp had a total of six functions, split into the various parts of a tree—the Transcendent Eater in this case.

First function was Root, which allowed Virala to sprout the Minor Treasure from the ground anywhere across his line of sight. It sprouted in the same process that the Transcendent Eater could sprout a Parute Tree anywhere across the Sumatra Continent.

Unlike a genuine Transcendent Eater, Blola\'s was a watered-down version, which only allowed him to sprout his body as a Parute Tree in his line of sight. Virala\'s Minor Treasure followed the same rule.

Second function was Seed, which pretty much served as another Mystic Human Heart—of Virala\'s. It manifested the Transcendent Eater\'s strongest characteristic—revival.

The Seed function allowed the Minor Treasure to maintain intelligence and a reserve of Prana, the same as the heart of a Mystic Human. The intelligence was on the same level, allowing the Minor Treasure to think for itself when it sprouts from the ground beyond Virala\'s Spirit Weapon range.

It could store a maximum of 100 Prana, which allowed it to operate on its own for a short interval before requiring a recharge from Virala. The best part of the Seed function was to revive him.

Of course, it only manifested the Transcendent Eater\'s characteristics. It wasn\'t a Transcendent Eater at the end of the day. Once Virala is revived, the Minor Treasure shatters permanently. It would be impossible to recreate it again.

If Virala reaches the 10-Life-Stage, he\'ll have 10 Minor Treasures of Mystic Human Stamp, which means that he could revive ten times in total. And every time he revives, one of the Minor Treasure shatters.

Suppose he dies twice, Virala will only be able to wield eight Minor Treasures of Mystic Human Stamp. Even if he uses Gold Kinesis Art on a new Spirit Weapon, he\'ll never be able to make a ninth Minor Treasure.

One Minor Treasure per body, that was the result of using Gold Kinesis Art. Only the refining efficiency improved with the Mystic Kinesis Art version. Everything else remained the same.

Third function of Stem was the original function of the stamp, which was to extract data from the target\'s mindspace and condense them as tangible data. In the Minor Treasure version, as it has a mind, the Mystic Human Stamp was capable of storing the data in it. When necessary, it was capable of infusing all the extracted data back to the source.

Fourth function of Flower was the Golden Giant\'s influence, which worked on strengthening the body. Its effect was significantly more pronounced on Mystic Humans and Brimgan Royals.

Fifth function of Fruit was derived from the Transcendent Eater\'s capability of creating a Parute Fruit/Parute King Fruit. By consuming enough Prana, the Mystic Human Stamp creates a violet-coloured plum that when ingested manifests Mystic Nature Art in the mind space of the consumer and activates its effect.

A Free Human had a higher chance of becoming a Mystic Human after consuming this fruit than by learning Mystic Nature Art through an Information Slip. These fruits were split into four categories: Iron, Silver, Gold, and Mystic.

It cost 300 Prana to condense an Iron Fruit, which was effective on Free Humans with Iron Grade Human Avatars. The cost spiked to 2400 Prana for a Silver Fruit, which was effective on Free Humans with Silver Grade Human Avatar and extremely effective on the ones with an Iron Grade Human Avatar.

Virala was only able to condense Iron and Silver Fruits, as the Mystic Human Stamp was a Minor Treasure. Only when it becomes a Major Treasure can he condense Gold and Mystic Fruits, which he had no possibility of achieving without the Major Treasure of Deity.

If he had known of the possibility of creating the Mystic Human Stamp before, he would have fused with the Major Treasure of Deity when he had plenty of chances to do so. Unfortunately, it wasn\'t suitable for his build back then but was more valuable to him currently.

The final function of Branch allowed the Mystic Human Stamp to fuse into the target upon physical contact and influence their thoughts, actions, etc. Minor Treasures influenced living beings. This function weaponised exactly that aspect of a Minor Treasure.

The trio of Mystic Human Virala, Orakha, and Blola had been spying upon the Zahara Kingdom for a while now, keeping track of everything that was happening in the region. Once the Wean Selection started, Yarsha Zahara began to build an exclusive zone for the wives, husbands, and nannies that would be birthing the second generation of the Wean Clan.

Once Virala\'s Minor Treasure formed, they could take action easily. He\'d stand far away, beyond the sensing range of Mystic Eaters and use the Root function of his Minor Treasure to spawn under the foot of the individual carrying a Mystic Eater.

Yarsha Zahara used Yennda\'s powers to turn Mystic Eaters into moles and planted them on the bodies of her Kingdom\'s citizens. She relied upon this to detect the presence of Gannala, Virala, and Orakha.

Through their spying sessions, Orakha had long since compiled a list of every individual equipped with such a Mystic Eater. Once he pointed them out, Virala spawned the Mystic Human Stamp under the target and fused it into the latter\'s body when the target stepped upon the stamp.

It used the Stem function to extract all the data from the Mystic Eater, turning it useless and then employed the Branch function to influence the target, making them move according to Virala\'s wishes.

Of course, once their purpose was achieved, Virala returned the data to the Mystic Eaters and only wiped the data related to his actions. He would then sprout the stamp from the ground near him to regain possession of it.

Just by relying on this one tactic, Yarsha Zahara\'s strongest detection means had been neutralised. This was the reason Gannala managed to form a tunnel through the palace walls when Grehha contacted her. She obtained the fertilised ovum from Grehha and retreated, all while Yarsha Zahara was unaware of the entire process.

In the same manner, the Mystic Human Stamp found itself making contact with the nanny of Penma. As Penma was ranked 74th in the order, it took almost two months after the Wean Selection for Brana to mate with her.

Penma\'s nanny was targeted as she was one of the few wives pregnant with a pair of twins. As long as this information was hidden, it was possible to safely steal the other twin without alerting Brangara.

Gannala intended to be absolutely sneaky to ensure her plans weren\'t revealed. As long as they weren\'t revealed, Yarsha Zahara wouldn\'t be able to plan a countermeasure.

As long as her side held the initiative and the edge in terms of information, she\'d always emerge victorious, even if she were to face plenty of hiccups along the way.

Thanks to Orakha dying and reviving every day, Gannala was able to coordinate with the rest to proceed with a plan of action even while being apart. Heck, even Raaha was kept in the loop, despite staying underground the Enrino habitat.

Currently, Raaha was building a special terrain deep underground where they could rear a group of Empyrean Boars to satisfy Gannala\'s consumption needs. The entirety of the Mammoth Clan was working towards that goal while anxiously praying for her success.

Days passed in such a fashion as Gannala and her group waited patiently, all while Brangara chased after traces left by the group purposefully across the entire region. And waiting for him were Free Humans transformed to resemble Virala through the Prime Skill of Virala.

Virala had used it on the Boar King after the Fifth Minor Crisis. The same Prime Skill had been employed to keep the Boar King busy. To protect his home, he was constantly forced to chase after all traces while doubling down on defensive measures for his family in his absence, wasting precious Tangible Natures each time.

And finally, four years after the arrival of the Royal Zinger, Penma went into labour, signalling Gannala to take action.

"Are you sure you wish to face him head one?" Blola asked in nervousness, "Isn\'t this too premature?"

"I\'m revealing my strength prematurely, but it\'s a necessity." Virala said slowly, tallying his preparations patiently, "Currently, Brangara considers Inala as a serious threat to himself. The rest of us are only a threat to his family. I simply intend to upgrade myself into someone he should become cautious against."

"If he has two threats to worry about, his attention will be split two ways, which will force him into making more mistakes. It\'s a solid scheme. But," Blola expressed his hesitation, "Are you capable of threatening him though?"

"Seems you forgot," Virala chuckled and transformed into Brangara, "I\'m at the peak of the Body Stage."

"That means…" Blola\'s eyes lit up in excitement.

"Yup!" Virala winked, "I can finally reveal my true strength."
