Roar——
Ah——
As they ate, their snarls and cries of pain mingled together.
Clearly, when hurt, they were aware of pain just like the sailors who had been tortured and devoured.
On the sea of prey and predator, the strong can bully the weak freely without worrying about punishnt.
But what happens when two so-called strong individuals et? It’s all about whose fist is harder, or... who eats faster?
The "Activated Spiritual Light" temporarily animated the seawater beneath Aiven’s feet, allowing him to stand on the water without any skill.
Watching the two so-called Extraordinary Powerhouses behave like beasts, driven by primal instincts, when in a vulnerable or evenly matched position, they weren’t much better than ordinary people.
"This is humanity!"
He took a handful of tiny seeds from his "Magic Pocket", seeds that looked like sesa but were actually fungi—[Parasitic Seeds].
In Aiven’s view, these were the most fearso of the "Activated Plants" series and must be used cautiously.
Initially able to control ants or other insects, but after generations of improvent by the "Vitalist School", they can now parasitize most creatures, especially humanity’s main enemies... humans!
However, to prevent loss of control, its reproduction capability is limited.
Only the first-generation, cultivated by a Wizard, can directly parasitize. The mature fungus and spores lose this ability, transforming into mushrooms for concocting various peculiar potions.
Potions like "Enchanting Smoke" for hypnotic and mind control effects, and the "Puppet Potion" for spies that appear completely ordinary...
At this mont.
Official Wizards, upon possessing real Magic Power, don’t need to slowly advance the seeds through their Spirituality and special potions.
Green Spiritual Light flickered at Aiven’s fingertips.
Whoosh—
A handful of "Parasitic Seeds" were scattered on the two n, weakened by their continuous cannibalism and beginning to realize they couldn’t continue.
After all, you can’t replenish indefinitely, and where does such good fortune co from?
The inevitable outco of continued eating is a path leading to death.
But.
When seeds touched by blood rapidly "rooted and sprouted", spreading throughout their bodies via the bloodstream, accelerating as they devoured each other’s flesh.
Their bodies were completely beyond their control.
[Appetite Stimulation!]
When the two realized sothing was wrong, or when Moplati, still possessing Reason, realized sothing was wrong, dense spores had already filled his lungs, causing him to cough up gray specks.
However, more spores had beco mycelium, covering their bones, flesh, and skin, controlling every cell while swiftly absorbing nutrients for growth.
When Aiven activated "Appetite Stimulation", they realized internally that they shouldn’t continue battling.
Yet their body’s instincts couldn’t be controlled, bite to bite, gut to gut, even more intensely.
Even struggling against the terrifying instinct, they still forcibly consud each other’s blood and flesh.
Simultaneously.
They noticed mushrooms growing on each other’s bodies but felt nothing, no pain, no itch, only despair from numbness.
"Ah! What is this thing! Spare , spare !
I have treasures, countless treasures to offer you!"
Even when Moplati triggered full body Void, it didn’t matter; the "Voodoo Doll" only had instincts, not intelligence, and everything contained within a Host was part of the Host, also experiencing Void.
If not like this.
Food just eaten, water just drunk, and about three kilograms of bacteria in a normal human’s body—all would leak upon Void activation, wouldn’t they?
Though terrified, they ripped at the constantly-growing mushrooms, yet couldn’t tear faster than they grew.
Just as they had once done to their victims.
Indifferently, Aiven watched their struggles grow weaker and weaker...
Bud... Bud...
In a short ti, the two floating in the sea were completely enveloped by mushrooms like two pieces of rotten wood.
Moreover, the mushrooms growing on them were distinct, Moplati’s mushrooms had gray, distorted ghostly faces, while Marlori’s were as striking as colorful fish fins.
At this point, they finally stopped the "mutual consumption" and couldn’t react otherwise.
"Hssh... Hssh..."
Their eyes were filled with mycelium, barely breathing, it was unclear if before their brains were completely consud by mushrooms, they regretted their actions.
Watching the two clinging to life.
Aiven ultimately lacked the madness to derive pleasure from others’ suffering, and upon sensing their self-awareness vanish, he stepped forward and ended them with a sword.
Crack——
Their decayed heads fell to the ground.
Almost all their body’s nutrients and strength had been absorbed by the spores, transford into the mushrooms, leaving behind just a layer of dry skin and indigestible calcium in their bones.
Treat them as they treated others.
And let them experience victims’ suffering and despair.
However, at this mont.
Aiven scratched his head in vexation, finding himself looking less and less like a righteous figure.
If the forr "Life Tree School" had such a Demon King-like style, it was no surprise if discovered and focused on by the Church for eradication.
Although the scene was unsightly, the spoils of war couldn’t be abandoned.
Observing the bizarre or vibrant mushrooms floating on the water, Aiven didn’t ignore them, taking out a basket to collect them all.
Upon seeing these unique materials, which couldn’t exist in the outside world, he thought of an excellent use. Though sinister, if well-employed, it might determine the war’s final direction.
These two died appropriately...
Suddenly.
His eye caught a yellow shadow rapidly sinking into the depths.
"Hmm? Trying to escape?"
Trickle... Trickle...
With a gentle wave, a thin stream of water rose from the sea, swirling into a life-like orb in his upturned palm.
At the center of the orb, a toy-like "Yellow Cloth Doll" kept struggling, its face occasionally displaying a ghostly visage, ferociously threatening.
Aiven glared, effortlessly suppressing the "Voodoo Doll" inhabited by an "Evil Spirit".
"Voodoo Sect, huh? These guys don’t seem friendly!"
This hypocrite apparently forgot, his thod wasn’t exactly... "friendly".
